Lays on the living room floor, staring up at the ceiling, trying to ignore the noise going on outside. When the contractor had said he would start immediately, he meant it. It had only been two hours since the meeting and they were already getting ready to pour the foundation of the new house. Grins when Ella crawls on him, tickling her.

"So Ella girl, where's Daddy?"

Smiles when she looks around, saying 'Da' over and over again, his eyes a bit sad.

Lee shuffles up the porch in pants that are entirely too big. There is dirt on her chin where she's fallen more than once on her way home.

She freezes on the threshold.

"Daddy?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Looks up at Jubilee and grins.

"Hey Lee, welcome home."

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee puts up a hand, and drops it. She opens her mouth and closes it.

She crouches down on the same level as the baby and stares at her. "Who's your daddy?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Laughs and shakes his head.

"Lee, meet Gabriella. And Gabe is her daddy, well now he is. She adopted him."

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee stays in her crouch, doesn't look away from the baby.

"How long have I been gone?" The sentence ends on a high pitch, as Lee struggles not to keel over in shock.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"Lee, breathe."

Sets Ella on her feet, pushing her towards the back of the house.

"Go find Daddy, Ella girl."

Turns to Jubilee.

"She's actually Lil's little sister. Something happened, she got custody and then gave Ella to Gabe and I."

Lee falls over onto her butt.

"And I thought my weekend was interesting." She blushes and ducks her head.

"How was your week? Other than the unexpected adoption?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Grins and winks at her.

"I see you and Nathaniel did more than play charades. My week? Oh, went to the island, got married, came home, got Ella, dealt with contractors, talking to you."

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee continues to blush. "Wha- charades? Married? Baby?" She falls back onto her back and stares up at the ceiling.

"Okay."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"Yes, Lee. Married and a baby. We're officially a family."

Gets a silly grin on his face saying that.

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

"Happy for ya, Jason. Sounds like things are falling into a wierd sort of place for you and Gabe."

She curls up on her side. "How pathetic is it that I miss him already?"

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Grins and reaches over, ruffling her hair.

"Not pathetic at all. Why did you come back?"

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee shrugs half-heartedly.

"Thought I should come home? Needed to talk to one of the elders about the complete and total lack of control during sex because it terrifies the crap out of me?"

She pushes her face into her knees. "Nathaniel has a place in Snape's house. And something weird happened to Snape. He doesn't remember me. And I'm rambling, because I ran away."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"You're new. You'll learn control, and Nathaniel can help if you ask him."

Looks concerned, rolling to face her.

"What do you mean, doesn't remember you?"

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

"He's just starting to feel like he's more than a sex object. I don't want to take that away from him because I'm overly hormonal." She sighs.

"I mean, he walked past me, and got this look of complete suprise on his face. I thought he was going to attack me, until he stopped, like he remembered something."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"Asking him for help in control won't make him feel like a toy. It will make him feel useful and helpful. And no one knows control better than a pet, trust me on this."

Shakes his head, worried.

"As long as he doesn't forget Nathaniel..."

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee's lip curled in the start of a snarl. "He'd better not. I'd have to beat him."

She laughs softly. "If I could get the drop on him."

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"Good luck on that."

Pauses for a moment, then gets up.

"Be right back."

Leaves the room and returns a few moments later, Ella in his arms.

"Silly Ella, you're suppossed to kill Jase's sex life, not Zane and Leela's."

Grins at Jubilee, kicking her lightly.

"Want to join us down at the lake?"

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee drags herself to her feet. "Sure. Could use to take my mind off life in general."

And pray to god I don't terrify the child.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

Grins and grabs a recieving blanket from the chair and heads out the door, tickling the little girl.

"So, you going to be around for the moon this month, or are you and Nathaniel staying at Snape's?"

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee trails after Jason, just watching him. It's a few seconds before she realizes that he asked a question.

"The moon? I... I don't know." She lowers her changed eyes and keeps her lips firmly over her teeth. "I'm still not sure what I am. And I can't really hunt. I'm not anywhere near as fast as you guys when you're changed. And I don't have claws."

She tucks her hands into her armpits, feeling strangely out of place.

"So fu...dging what? You're pard. Now, are you going to be here or Wales?"

He stops at the small beach, handing the child to Jubilee then quickly stripping down to his boxers. He takes Ella back and wades out into the water with her.

"Coming in?"

[mandorla.livejournal.com]

Lee clutches the borrowed shirt to her chest and stares off at nothing. "I'll.... I'll be where Nathaniel is."

After a moment, she sheds his clothes and romps into the water.

[thewolf-inside.livejournal.com]

"That's good."

Plays in the water with Ella for a bit, then waves to Jubilee and heads back to the house.
