Cecilia let out a delighted laugh as Azzy sped into the room and was instantly in her lap, instantly receiving cuddles and petting from the doe. Scratching her behind the ear, Cecilia returned her gaze to Ez and smiled with weak sadness. She could relate so well to his displeasure that it was almost painful.
"I already miss drinking, I know how you feel." Caffeine, drinking... Cecilia was at an absolute loss, but if she could still have sweets she was sure she'd be alright. At least, on the liquid front. The actually having an infant growing inside of her bit was still sickening and terrifying. Forcing the thoughts down, Cecilia nervously ran her fingers through Azzy's fur. Could she really survive this?
"Perhaps we should go buy some caffeine-free tea later?" She called out as Ez slipped into the other room. It would give them both something to help get their minds off of things if nothing else.

The bander rolled about happily in the doe's lap. Victory was hers and her master hadn't complained one bit! The bander licked the Cecilia's face in gratitude. Maybe she would get treats later for this?
Ez sighed as she grabbed all the proper things and returned to set them on the coffee table. "Yeah, I suppose we should buy some caffeine-free things later. Not to thrilled about their taste though. Bother," the sparrow muttered as she returned to his seat besides Cecilia. He honestly didn't want to go outside without his corset that he very much couldn't wear because of pregnancy. The concept pissed him off rather nicely, so he turned to Cecilia with a small smile instead.
"For now though, I think we should just relax a bit. Don't want to stress out or anything." He waved a finger, "Or something like that. I don't know what an actual mother would say."

Cecilia nuzzled the little bander and doted cheerfully on the spoiled creature as Ez went about getting them drinks and other such things. "Thanks." She chimed lightly, beaming up at Ez though her hands remained focused on stroking and petting Azzy. She would most definitely be getting treats, just as soon as Ez's back as turned and Cecilia could sneak her some.
She really did spoil the lovely little thing to death.
If only children were like pets, Cecilia wouldn't mind so much...but they weren't.
"I'm not either, honestly." She wrinkled her nose cutely, and finally relented her cheerful petting to gather her drink in her slender hands. "Relaxing sounds nice, actually. Much better than..." She trembled and then found herself laughing as he went on, waving a finger in a mock matronly way. "I don't either. Oi, I hope I never sound like a mother!"
What a drag! Responsibility, children...motherhood. She abhorred it all.

Ez snorted as he flopped on the sofa besides her. It was nice to have a friend that you could laugh with even when you were terrified out of your head. He still couldn't help but wonder what his father was going to do about all of this. Couldn't think about that right now.
He reached over with one hand and scratched his bander under the chin. She nipped his hand playfully when he drew away. Could banders be kept around small children? Maybe he should talk to his parents about that too. Freaking obligations. "If I every sound like a mother I should be put out of misery right there an then," he snorted as he wrapped an arm around Cecilia.
He sighed, "Please remember that I'm always here for you, okay? I don't want to every lose contact with you." Ez gave her a weak smile. Honestly. He was just being paranoid.

Cecilia leaned into Ez's touch without hesitation, placing her slender body gently up against him. She would have to take off of working for just a little bit, until the child was born at very least. Then once it was born she'd have to be sure to get her figure back to the way it was supposed to be in short order. Little brat, making her gain so much weight! Even already the extra pounds she was putting on annoyed the vain doe.
But that was thoughts for another time.
For now she had Ez and Azzy and sweet drinks. Just being with Ez made all her fears just a little less terrifying, it always had. "I don't ever want to lose contact with you either, Ez. I wouldn't dream of it." She leaned up, kissing his cheek. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me, you know. Without you I'd just..." She let her voice trail off, knowing that he would both know the remainder of her sentence and not want to hear it all at once. Hell, Cecilia rarely wanted to hear it. Without Ez, she would just be a common whore. No greater aspirations, nothing to really live for but her next pay job.
Being forced to ease her stroking for a moment in order to gather up her drink, Cecilia stirred her cinnamon stick in the warm liquid before letting it fall still and taking a sip. As soon as she was satisfied with the taste she would return to petting Azzy.

Ez did know where that sentence went, and didn't like it one bit. He hugged the doe with one arm, smiling weakly. He watched as Azzy butted her head against the woman's hand for more attention. That bander was such a pain sometimes.
"And you're the best thing that walked into my childhood and never bothered to leave like so many other people," He sighed. That was a depressing thought, wasn't it? Maybe he shouldn't think about it so much. He rolled his eyes briefly before returning his attention to Ceclia. "So, Ceci, what..." He paused, he wasn't sure what do say, "What are you planning to do once this is all over? I know it's a sensitive subject but... have you figured any of this out or did you just find out about this little disaster?"
Disaster was an understatement, but he wasn't going to play word games today.

Cecilia wanted to blush, or cry, or laugh for happiness... She honestly wasn't sure. All she knew was that Ez loved her in the best way in the world and she never wanted it to change. Lovers wasn't the word, she didn't ever want it to be, their friendship was perfectly wonderful the way it was.
But then that topic was back and Cecilia had to recognize that she just couldn't keep ignoring it. Her whole frame shuddered and for a moment her eyes teared up but she swallowed the sobs back down before they could rise. Oh god, to be a mother! "I... Don't know. Do you think I should keep it, them?" She shuddered again. A woman had once said that a child was an example of selfless love, that it would love you regardless of what you did because you were its mother. That alone was tempting, but oh how it would ruin her business! "Have you figured it out yet?"
All the while she stoked Azzy dotingly, trying to keep her mind from fully focusing on the horrible reality before her.

Keep the baby? Ez shifted uncomfortable before going back to keeping one arm wrapped around her. This was comfortable enough. And Azzy was starting to nod off in her lap. At least someone didn't hate to deal with the awkward feelings running through the room.
"I don't know. That's up to you Ceci. I can't tell you what you have to decide for yourself," He shrugged. He could easily say "keep it" but what if he gave away his? It seemed unlikely but it would have been terribly hypocritical of him. "I have no idea who the father is. There are only a few possibilities that I can think of... and none of them make me all that happy. This children thing in general just... is a pain. I'm totally not ready for this."
And he didn't want to be a mother. He wanted to be something else entirely.

With Azzy beginning to nod off in her lap and with Ez so close and warm, Cecilia could've stayed there forever. It just felt so very safe and welcoming to be there and she honestly didn't want that to end for anything in the world. Not even the baby growing inside of her could dampen that comfort.
"I... don't really know either." Her shoulders slumped miserably and she found her chest constricting a little as she thought on the subject. "I don't know who the father is. Usually I'm so careful and yet,..." She trailed off, shaking her head miserably. "It could have been...anyone."
Cecilia wasn't about to renounce her ways, even if she tried she wasn't sure her body would allow her, but the thought of not knowing who the father was at all left her quietly terrified. What if it was one of her jacked up customers and the baby was sick because of it? She shuddered. At worst it could have been a Lowlander, but that gave Cecilia no reassurance.
"Oh Ez... I just don't know." She whined softly, cuddling close to him. "I'll see what mom says, but I can't think of anything else. Maybe he'll know what I should do." Maybe he'd help, or...take it? That would be nice.
