Torvil woke before the sun again, The last few days had been great... But they needed to go home now... He sighed and sat up, then swore. All he had was the cultural wear, and that was not going to cut it for the flight home.

Ala yawned and stretched she opened her eyes and smiled up at him

Torvil smiled down at her and chuckled softly. "With all the things I brought back and forth from home yesterday I forgot to grab a change of clothes..." He muttered.

Ala chuckled and sat up "So what are you going to do about it?"

Torvil huffed. "With your permission, I'd like to take us home the fast way..."

"As long as we stop on the other side for a few moments I'll agree to that... I don't want you forgetting stuff again... of getting hurt" Ala said seriously

Torvil nodded slowly with a soft smile. "Can you get everything you want to take home with you?" He stayed where he sat.

Ala nodded and got up starting to gather everything, the blanket, all her clothing, the sculpture. She started to get dressed to go, her walk throughout the entire time was becoming more of a noticeable waddle

Torvil smiled. "It's getting close I think... Have you decided where bump's gonna be born when the time comes?"

Ala shook her head "Nope, depends on where I am when the time comes, read some stuff at the clinic about Gaia General, and I visited a Mednin with Dia last time I was in Kazeha.. I doubt we'll be here so I didn't look it up here besides the fact I think I know how it is here"

Torvil nodded. "So uh... What's our choices?" His voice was still a little nervous. He was still, in a part of his mind worried about bumps health, even with the proof that the child was healthy, this long of a pregnancy was beginning to freak him out. Made Ala beautiful yes... But it scared him that his child might.. Well... Yeah.

Ala stopped walking facing Torvil and started listing off the different things for the Gaia general giving a tiny bit of detail for the few options and how things were done there. Then she started telling him about her visit with the mednin and about the birthing methods they used which was water births

Torvil blinked. "Wait... Wait... Wouldn't the baby... drown?" His voice was laced heavily with worry.

Ala shook her head "No, they don't take their first breath till their face touches open air, until then they still get oxygen through me and the umbilical cord"

Torvil seemed to look relieved, and then moved over to her. "Well... If it's what you want..." He put a hand on bump. "You know what's best for bump..."

Ala shrugged "I really don't know what I want yet, It really will depend where I am when the time comes, cause I'll go wherever is closest"

Torvil nodded slowly and smiled, kissing her ear. "We ready?" He asked softly, rather wanting to get home, and have some major cuddle time... For some reason, he felt this urge not to let Ala out of his sight, or let her go...

Ala nodded "I think I have everything, should we say goodbye?"

Torvil shrugged. "If you want... I let them all know we were only stay till...""Hey? You guys leave yet?" Came the call of an older Jokar.

Ala chuckled "No Jokar come on in" she smoothed her shirt over bump, she had decided to wear her home clothes since they were headed that way anyways

Jokar entered and smiled, walking over to the pair. "Well the messenger has arrived, and thankfully on time. Everybody wishes you the best, and hope that your trip home is safe. They give their sorrows that they can't be here to send you off, but they have work... Or in my case..." He smirked and looked around."Somebody to be with, I know Jokar, you have a good day, and tell them we love em alright?" Torvil smiled.

Ala smiled and waddled over to the one bag she hadn't dragged over to the pile yet and opened it reaching in and grabbing a handful she walked back to Jokar "Go spoil her" she said with a grin dropping a pile of the 'change' into his hands

Jokar's eyes widened. "There must be like... twenty gold claw..." He muttered something about dinner and a new dress.Torvil chuckled. "Don't forget jewelry..."Jokar just nodded. "T-thanks..."

Ala giggled and tippy-toed giving her nephew a kiss on the cheek "You are welcome, have fun..."

Jokar nodded and smiled. Turning an heading out.Torvil chuckled. "He's going to have a very happy girl on his hands..."

Ala laughed "here's not much we can use it for back home might as well let him have some fun, rest will probably end up in our hordes anyways...."

"Yours..." He said softly.

Ala chuckled and dragged the bag over to the rest of the pile "Well I think that's about it...."

Torvil nodded and put his hand on bump. "Make sure you're touching it..."

Ala nodded and reached to the nearest thing and put her hand on it before closing her eyes

Torvil moved them, stopping them in other side for a moment or two. "Go ahead and open them..." He said softly. "We're not going anywhere for about a minute..."

Ala opened her eyes and smiled at him happy that he had listened to her

Torvil smiled and caressed her cheek. "Love you..." He said softly, people just walking by them as if they didn't exist.

"Love you too" she said with a smile, her hands running over her belly

Torvil purred, and covered her eyes with his hand then moved it back to bump.

Ala purred softly closing her eyes behind his hand

Torvil moved them again, ending up in their living room when he was finished. He smiled and removed his hand from bump and then flopped onto the couch behind him.

Ala opened her eyes and looked around "Well I guess that makes us home" she said with a chuckle waddling around the pile of belongings and dropping onto the couch beside him

Torvil pulled her close and nuzzled her, purring loudly. His hand wrapped around her as he purred loudly, smiling as he held her, his eyes shut.

Ala cuddled into his side purring contently one hand on his leg the other on bump Ala sighed and leaned her head on his chest relaxing, Bump was being rather active

Torvil smiled softly and started to hum. "Well now... What shall we do..."

Ala shrugged resting her hands on her belly feeling the movements within her that were definitely no longer flutters

Torvil moved his hand down to bump. "Quite active now isn't it?"

Ala nodded "Sure it, more so then it used to be"

Torvil nodded and smiled. "Wonder what it'll be... Boy or a girl..." He chuckled softly and shook his head. "Either one would be wonderful..."

Ala shook her head "I don't know, but whatever gender Bump is they are strong"

Torvil chuckled. "Of course their strong..." He reached down and lifted Ala up off the floor and into his arms.

Ala laughed "Their father is just as strong"

Torvil chuckled. "And their mother as well probably..."

Ala giggled and nuzzled him "Not as strong as their father"

Torvil purred and smiled rocking her in his arms.

Ala nodded "Probably... I'll going to visit Dia in a few days, she's asked me to come for a visit"

Torvil frowned. "I've got some major stuff in a few days... Are you sure you'll be okay alone? I can cancel if need be..."

"I'll be ok alone, it's not that far, and I'll be with Dia" she said with a nod

Torvil nodded. "You will send someone to get me if Bump starts to come though right?" He said softly. He'd not missed a one of his children's births...

"Of course, and I'm sure this one wont be a quick one like the twins were, so I have either twin I can send for you since they both can fly"

Torvil nodded slowly. "They'd better double time it... and I'll come the fastest way possible... But I won't straight jump... That I promise you..." He said softly.

"I can make the trip in 20-30 mins when I'm not pregnant, and I think they might even be stronger fliers then me" she told him

Torvil nodded slowly. "I promise to be by your side within five minutes of them getting here..." He said softly, brushing her hair with his hand.

"IF that happens... it might not. we have no way to predict...." Ala said

Torvil nodded. "I know love... But iffffff... It happens, no matter where it happens, I will be by your side as fast as I am able... and Visha help any soul that tries to bar my way..." He leaned in and gave her a deep kiss.

Ala nodded and purred leaning against him

Torvil cuddled her close, brushing her hair and humming a short and happy song.

Ala purred and yawned cuddling closely

Torvil smiled. "Go to sleep love... You need the rest..."

Ala nodded and quickly fell asleep in his arms

Torvil brushed her hair and joined her.
