When they told Hazel abouy Fayre's condition, she was obviously happy for her . And excited that she would get to see the child during her stay .
Zylvia smiled watching the way the younger woman's eyes lit up . Babies were always a popular topic among woman . She wondered if Kaldrek and her would ever have one . And how long it would take before they would even start trying .
She looked down at what she was working on . A baby girl's little outfit . She really wished she was able to make such an outfit for a child of her own . The gender didn't really matter to her, she just wanted a family of her own . Even if Celia and her husband had always been kind to her she had always been aware they weren't her real parents . She wondered what gender of child Kaldrek would prefer, that is if she could talk him into having a kid . Zylvia also found herself wondering what kind of father he would be .
AdvertisementShe knew she was torturing herself by thinking about it . But it was really hard not to right now .
"So, can I help with the preparations for the child?" Hazel's bubbly voice trembled from her excitement .
"Of course!" Fayre grinned at her . "You are one of us for the next year, you know . "
Fayre had already accepted the princess as one of them . Zylvia was having a bit harder time accepting the young woman . Hazel seemed like a nice enough person, but she was new and unfamiliar . Though she was fairly easy to understand . Zylvia was a bit surprised that Fayre had not yet teased her about her crush on Asrar .
The next few hours were spent happily talking together and making baby clothes . It went by fairly quickly as they were grabbing fun .
When they went tho lunch, Asrar immediately fell right behind the princess . His quietness was a little unnerving, but at least kinda understandable now . Zylvia wondered how Hazel would react when she eventually found out that Asrar practiced magic .
Jayesh and Kaldrek actually joined them for lunch today . She watched as Jayesh immediately attached himself to his queen and treated her like he was afraid of her breaking . They were adorable .
She sat beside of her husband, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye . He was shaking his head at their best friends with a soft smile on his face .
Hazel was excitedly telling her knight about Fayre being pregnant . The usually stone faced knight was hanging onto her every word . He congratulated the king and queen in his normal overly polite tone . In an odd way Asrar was actually kinda amusing with just how he seemed unconcerned with everything . Though she had to wonder why he would stay in Amriel when it was so dangerous for him to do so .
As she was eating, Zylvia found herself fully aware of Kaldrek sitting beside of her . It was rather hard to resist the urge to lean against him . However, this was not the place or time to suddenly do something like that . And anyhow, it would probably scare him . She felt her lips twitch at the thought .
The conversation as they were eating was of course about the child that Fayre was carrying . It was fairly easy to see just how each person in the room felt about it . All three females were excited to meet the baby and were wondering what gender it would be . The father of the child was just as excited and declared that it didn't matter what gender it was it would be the best child in the world . Kaldrek was grinning enjoying the excitement and was obviously happy for his best friend . The only person who seemed unaffected was Hazel's knight . It almost seemed to Zylvia that he was tuning everything out .
When they were finished eating, the girl's went to go back to their self assigned work . Zylvia glanced at Kaldrek as she was leaving . He and Jayesh were talking with serious looks on their faces .
Asrar walked with them to the door of the place before Hazel shooed him away, "Go have fun for the rest of the day . Just join us for dinner . "
"As it pleases thee, my princess . " He bowed and left . Hazel watched him leave with an affectionate smile on her face .
They got back to work and talked about little things all afternoon . Even with an outsider there it was still a wonderful time and Zylvia found herself enjoying every minute of it .
