Still supporting Lexi Alex pulls the curtain around them and pulls fresh underwear and a slip-on summer dress from the bag he packed for Lexi.

Pockets Thu Sep 15, 2011 4:58 pm

Alexis smiles gratefully.

Alexis: You thought of everything, didn't you?

Cruel Britannia Thu Sep 15, 2011 7:02 pm

Alex smiles.

Alex: I do what I can.....

Pockets Fri Sep 16, 2011 4:38 pm

Alexis is tired enough that she doesn't even attempt a teasing show for Alex as she changes.

Alexis: Clean, normal clothes. You have no idea how good this feels.

She chuckles.

Alexis: Then again, maybe you do.

Cruel Britannia Fri Sep 16, 2011 4:56 pm

Alex: Oh believe me I understand....

Alex helps Lexi get changed. Also not teasing...... just as gently as possible.

Pockets Fri Sep 16, 2011 4:58 pm

Alexis stretches, yawning.

Alexis: Let's go home.

Cruel Britannia Fri Sep 16, 2011 5:01 pm

Alex: Ok sweetie.

He grabs a wheelchair.

Pockets Sun Sep 18, 2011 4:40 pm

Alexis sits in the wheelchair.

Alexis: This is just for getting out of the hospital, right?

Cruel Britannia Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:22 pm

Alex: Of course.

He smiles warmly.

It's more dignified than me carrying you everywhere.... I'll save that for at home

Pockets Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:43 pm

Alexis: You think being in a wheelchair is more dignified than being carried?

Cruel Britannia Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:48 pm

Alex: Hmmn..... you're right...... you're right..... I wouldn't like it either.... you're an Edwards.... a wheelchair will not do.

Alex lifts Lexi out of the wheelchair and scoops her Bridal style into his arms.

Pockets Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:53 pm

Alexis glances over at her mother-in-law, who has been patiently hanging around this whole time.

Alexis: This isn't against some hospital rule is it? I'm still not walking out.

Cruel Britannia Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:56 pm

In the meantime Ewan has returned and has scooped Jillian up into his arms.

Ewan: Rules or no rules.... us Edwards men just can't keep our hands off our women.

He winks at Alexis.

************************************************

Shortly after the birth of the quadruplets, and at least partially as a distraction from not being able to get as close to Alexis as he wants to, Alex has started initiation training with Jessica, inviting her to stay with them and train in the mini-dungeon of their house while Jayden had to go into high gear with his political career.

Jessica comes nervously into the house, luggage in hand.

Jessica: I hope I'm not being an imposition. I know you will want to spend alone time with your children.

Alexis: Don't worry about it. If you really want to pay us back... babysitting duty!

Alexis smiles.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:12 pm

Alex is standing waiting for Jessica. He laughs.

Alex: That's if you have the energy of course.

He takes her luggage.

..... come on.... lets get you settled in.

Pockets Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:16 pm

Jessica: Thank you.

She looks around.

Jessica: So, this is your home without the chaos. I apologize again for the sheets.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:20 pm

Alex: Don't worry about it.... we have reserved those specifically for you.....

He opens the door to where she'll be staying.

Pockets Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:24 pm

Jessica smiles.

Jessica: I well remember that.

She walks in the room.

Jessica: Oh! You didn't have to go and decorate it for me!

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:27 pm

Alex: You'll be working hard while you're here.... you should have somewhere you feel comfortable to come at the end of the day.... there's a phone right here..... you can call Jayden as often as you need.

Pockets Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:29 pm

Jessica: Again, thank you.

She chuckles.

Jessica: I suspect I will be saying that a lot.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:36 pm

Alex: No problem at all.... so.... well start training tomorrow once you've had a chance to rest.... so.... feel free to get unpacked.... you have an ensuite bathroom if you want to freshen up.... when you're done we'll all get some dinner.

Pockets Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:41 pm

Jessica: Alright. I won't be long.

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:44 pm

Alex heads downstairs with Lexi and begins preparing dinner.

Pockets Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:46 pm

Alexis is trying figure out how to balance the babies for feeding.

Alexis: Oh, hey. Did she like the room?

Cruel Britannia Thu Feb 23, 2012 1:52 pm

Alex: Seemed to.... she's just getting settled in.....

He sees Lexi playing baby tetris.

..... I thought we would have figured this out by now.....
