Another month another chapter. This one is roughly twice as long as the normal chapter so I hope it makes up for it being a little late. As always I'd like to thank those who helped me and if anyone notices any glaring mistakes please point them out and I'll edit it. I appreciate it since I don't have a beta-reader and I'm editing old documents that are half in broken English from my old co-writer.

Alex felt pain over his entire body as he laid in darkness, wondering just what his fate would be. "Damn it," the man mentally muttered as he tried to dig his way out of the darkness that had engulfed him. Finally after several moments of trying, the young man managed to open his eyes up; finding himself in an ICU bed. "I hate being in these things," he muttered, prying the mask off of his face and pounding on the plexi-glass covering around him.
Suddenly there was a slight tapping on the plexi-glass barrier. The man turned his gaze to the source of the tapping seeing a woman with a big smile standing over him. She was wearing the Knights of Rounds uniform and had greyish-green hair, with a single braided lock in the front. Her jacket was fitted to her body, showing off her large bust. "Just who are you?" the man questioned, glowering at the woman. "I thought all the knights of round were dead."
The woman looked at him with glory eyes, "Nonette Enneagram is my name, the Knight of Nine, alive and breathing..." said with a nice and almost happy tone. "I survived by staying on a beach, but I'm not here to talk about me...just tell me boy..." she told him with a sighed, smiling. "How did you survived?" she asked; blinking her eyes and giving him a bigger smile.
"Princess Cornelia must've saved me," the man scowled, looking away from the woman; remembering his final moments of consciousness. "What about the two women who were in the room with me; the green haired one, C.C., and the terrorist?"
"Well... Sorry about it but the terrorist escaped; we couldn't find her," she stated, annoyed. "But your friend is okay, she's in another room, with my friends... having fun with some question we have for her," the woman said with a smirk.
"In other words you're torturing her?" the man snarled, slamming his fist against the plexi-glass shield in an attempt to somehow escape. When the only response he got was a pain surging through his hand the man let out a sigh and let his hand rest at his side, ignoring the pain coming from it.
"I didn't say that," the woman told him keeping the happiness in her voice, "but she is not happy, she asked for food...can you tell me, what's her problem with chicken? Everybody loves chicken..." she asked Alex, surprise laced deep in her voice.
"She only loves it when it's on pizza," Alex said with a scoff happy to hear that his witch was in one piece. "I assume that Cornelia asked you to alert her when I've woken up?"
"Well, she does," the busty woman said as she looked around the room. "Princess Cornelia wants to know when you've woken and been available."
"I'll do her one better," the man said with a smirk as he gently knocked on the plexi-glass screen. "Let me out of here and take me to her. I'll tell her everything she wants to know."
"I was hoping an smart answer like that, so please..." the woman spoke as she turned to the door and opened it, "Follow me, we're going to visit your girlfriend," she taunted him.
"I would but," he said, finishing his sentence by tapping on the plexi-glass barrier.
"Right," the woman smiled and open the barrier, and tried to help him to get out of the bed, "Well I think you are available to follow me, so please" she stated; pointing the door.
"Lead the way milady," he said sarcastically with a bow, ignoring the pain from his various bullet wounds.
The woman laughed as she started to walk forward. They proceeded down a narrow hallway that was brightly light; a fact that was amplified by the barren white walls. Several seconds passed and they reached to a silver folding door, which opened at the time Nonette put her hand on an authentication tablet. "Lady's go first," the woman joked with him.
"After you then," he said with another bow, feeling his stitching pulling at his skin. "Damn it these doctors suck," the man cursed mentally as he looked at the woman, hoping she would move first.
"Just..." the woman grumbled as she suddenly pushed Alex inward, "Make yourself comfortable," she commanded as she turned to see Princess Cornelia standing in a the nearest corner, glowering. "As you requested your highness"
In the room, sitting in a chair near a table at the far side of the room was C.C., an untouched plate of chicken sitting in front of her. The immortal sat for a moment focusing her gaze onto Alex's eyes. "So... Was it a good night for you too, Alex?" she questioned, her voice dripping with sarcasam.
"Looks like it was better than yours," he said, striding over to the woman with a smirk as he sat down next to her. The man inspected the immortal, realizing she had been in this room since they brought her for questioning. She was covered in blood and still wearing her blood stained dress. "So Princess what do you want to know?"
"Just who were they?" Cornelia snarled as she looked at the man; disgust and malice in her gaze.
"Remnants of the people that held you and me," the man said with a smirk as he tried to get himself in a relaxed position
"The head bitch was named Delilah, also known as Subject 398." he continued calmly, despite the look he was getting. "Her Geass allows her to cast illusions on others and herself. The problem with that is that when her Geass went out of control she was left in a world of delusions, fairies, and pretty things."
"Pretty things?" the witch whispered, "What a strange way to see the thing 'pretty'..."she mused, twisting her hair around her index finger. "Besides, she is mad," the golden eyed woman added, intentionally forgetting to tell Cornelia that she was immune to these powers.
"And I'm assuming that's how she managed to mask herself from us," the purple haired woman pondered as she began to walk around the room. "And just how was your witch there able to chase after her then?"
"She's immune to all effects of Geass," Alex said simply as he looked at the Britannian princess. "There aren't many users that have any chance of having an effective Geass on her..." C.C. glared at Alex with furious eyes, like he was telling Cornelia her big secret.
"What?" the man asked as he looked at the woman, feeling the hate that was radiating from C.C.'s gaze
She turned her eyes from him and looked at Cornelia. "I want to go home," she suddenly said.
"You think that I'm about to let you two just walk out of here?" the woman growled, glaring at the couple. "The UFN wants blood, so to speak, and you two are my only lead along with being prime suspects."
"Suspects?" Alex laughed as he looked at the woman. "You should know better Cornelia, if I wanted those people dead, they'd be dead!"
"Still how do we know you two aren't working with them to get our trust?" the woman questioned with a glare to the pair.
"Trust me," the man said as he got up, heading for the door. "I would never work with those psychos that had me in that cell…or did you forget that princess?"
"And I suppose you'll tell me that we should let you go before you break out on your own?" Cornelia questioned with a glare, trying to intimidate Alex.
"Bingo," he said as he picked a pen up from the table. "Because if not I'll just have to use this to break out...and neither one of us want that.
Cornelia let out a sigh as she turned to leave the room, pausing as she passed Nonette. "Take them to their car and get them out of our hair," the woman ordered, exhausted from the night's events.
"Yes, my Lord," Nonette barked watching how the Princess left the room. "Please, just follow after me, no talking," the older woman said seriously.
C.C. stood up and walked next to the woman, whispering into her ear, "Tell her that she can condemn me for the curse that I have," with an evil smirk, "but I can not break my pact with her brother," she suddenly added with a sigh.
Nonette glared at the younger woman for the first time, fury in her eyes. "No more talk. Follow me," she ordered.
Alex did as she was told, following her down the hall and into an elevator. The three of them rode in silence until they got to a sub basement that served as a garage. Nonette walked them to their car quietly. Alex let out a sigh as he got in and rummaged around in the center console until he found a cell phone and handed it to the knight, saying, "Tell Cornelia she can contact me with this."
"I will," said the woman dryly, looking to the witch, and then she gave him again a glorious smile, "Thanks for the cooperation."
"We'll be in touch," the man said as he sat back in the seat, waiting for C.C. to get in the drivers seat. In the condition he was in he didn't dare to get behind the wheel of a car. The witch got into the car and gave Alex a quick look before she started the car and pulled out of the garage, heading back to their apartment.
XxXxXx
Alex walked into the apartment, having slept most of the ride back from...where ever it was that Cornelia had them. "You ok?" he asked as he watched C.C. come into the apartment, closing the door behind her.
"I'm going to take a shower," the green haired woman simply said, walking to the bathroom and reaching for the door. Suddenly, she left it and went to where Alex was. "Are you ok?" she asked him.
"I'll be fine," he said as he looked at the woman. "But I would appreciate it if you'd let me bathe with you," he said with a smirk, letting go of the thoughts that were plaguing him.
"You won't," the witch said walking to the bathroom again. She went inside and opened the cold water faucet, and walked into the artificial rain in her dress, closing her eyes, trying not to think about the things that were happening. She started to undress herself, but she discovered she had not the strength to do it. After several attempts she managed to pull the wet clothing from her body and flung it wistfully into a corner.
"You ok in there?" the man questioned, noticing she hadn't closed the door on him. "Well since you didn't close the door," he said with a smirk as he headed for the door, planning on going in if she didn't stop him.
"What?" she grumbled, her voice catching in her throat for a moment due to the cold water.
"I'm coming in," the man said with a smirk as he headed for the bathroom, full well planning on joining her in the shower.
"What? No; you're not allowed to," she growled at him with the same annoyed tone, trying to rinse her hair of the blood that had dried in it..
"I'm coming..." he trailed off as he entered the room looking at her body, "in," he finished with a smirk.
C.C. looked at his eyes, trying not to shake like a leaf caught in the wind. "Can't you just leave me alone?" she growled, wanting a few moments to collect her thoughts and compose her façade.
"But it would be a crime to leave such a beautiful woman alone," he said with a genuine smile as he entered the shower with her, the ice cold water giving him goose bumps. "And you are so gorgeous too," he stated, wrapping his arms around her.
C.C. placed his hand over one of his wounds, "Does it hurts?" the witch asked him weakly.
"I can deal with the pain," he said with a smile as he kissed her neck softly. "What about you. You all healed up?"
"I've always healed up," she simply said, opening the hot water tap. The water became warm in a few moments, alleviating a portion of the chill that was plaguing the witch.
"That's good," the man said as he took off the hospital pants that had been put on him, realizing that this entire time he hadn't had any underwear on.
She placed her hand on his shoulder, closing her eyes, and feeling the warm water on her back, "What are you doing?" she whispered.
The man gently grasped her hand and put his arm around the small of her back. "Normal people don't wear clothes in the shower sexy..." was his only response.
"Since when we are normal, Alex?" the witch taunted, hiding her smirk on the hollow between his shoulder and neck. She placed her lips on his neck, softly pushing them into a kiss. Quickly, she started kissing his collarbone, then his neck, coming to his lips, but the witch didn't touch them, she only gave him a smile as she pulled away by a few inches.
"Feeling rowdy then, are we?" he questioned as he pulled her body against his, the heat off of her body comforting him a bit. He brought his lips to hers and kissed her; first gently but getting rougher as he continued. "Do you know how beautiful you are?" he finally asked, pulling away from his kiss.
The green haired woman looked at him with lusty eyes, "On what experience do you base that comment?" she asked, kissing him again.
"I've seen a lot of gorgeous and exotic women," he said as he kissed her again, this time a bit harder than the last. "But you...you make them all look homely," the man said, staring with equal lust into her eyes.
She smirked with an evil, yet charming smile. "I was wondering...how many times you've said those ungodly words to others girls, in this very spot Alex?" she whispered to him, playing with her thumb in Alex's mouth, refusing him the ability to argue. "I'm sure, you made them your slaves with that," she mused to him, sucking on his neck.
Alex sucked on her thumb for a few moments before removing her hand from his face. "Who knows, maybe I have, maybe I haven't. All that matters is I won't be able to say it again truthfully," the Geass user said, feeling the water still running down his back. The man brought his hand down her back and around her waist, making its way up her flat stomach.
"Ha?" C.C. said almost laughing. "You are blushing," the witch told him kissing his cheek suddenly, and hugging him strongly by his shoulders, placing her head on him one more time.
Alex laughed a bit as he quickly reached down, grabbing her legs behind the knees and pulling them up around his waist. "We're just wasting this water here," he whispered into her ear lustfully, suckling on her neck. The man leaned back with the woman, ignoring the pain from his stitching as he reached out to turn off the water. He then walked out of the shower, trying not to reopen his wounds as he carried the woman away from the bathroom.
"This is totally wrong," said the witch suddenly, getting out of Alex's grasp, and ran to the bed, taking a sheet to cover her body. "Look at you, you have to rest... Here," she told him as she sat on the bed, slowly patting on the mattress.
"Yes ma'am," the man said as he went to the bed and laid next to the woman, looking into her eyes lustfully. Quickly he crashed his lips against hers, slipping his tongue into her mouth as he pulled the sheet away from her body and groping her scarred breast.
With all her strength, C.C. broke the kiss. She dedicated several seconds to look at the man. She placed her hand on his chest, sliding it down to his stomach, and pressed it a little bit. "It hurts, right?" she whispered to him, shortening the distance between them. Then she took the sheet that Alex threw, and put it on them.
"You're making it feel a lot better," the Geass user said with a smirk as he wrapped his arms around her body, running one hand up her spine while the other one groped her rear end. He pressed his lips against hers, lust firing up in both of their eyes as they continued their actions.
The witch took both of his hands, and with one soft moment she was on the top, straddling the man's hips. "A lot better?" she questioned pressing her body to his, touching his lips with a short kiss. "Let me see just how good I can make you feel, brat," the witch added kissing him deeper.
XxXxXx
After an hour and a half Alex and C.C. had finished their consummation of love. "Amazing..." the man muttered, rolling off of C.C. "You're not a witch, you're a godess..." he said, drunk on the feeling he got from their time together.
She looked at him with surprise in her eyes, "When was the last time I heard that..." asked to herself out loud, thinking about it, "Oh, right, I can remember it..." the witch mused; laughing as she hugged her partner. "You were good to too," said to Alex, closing her eyes and listening to his breathing.
Alex didn't reply, having blacked out due to exhaustion almost immediately after he breathed out his words.
C.C. looked at the man, annoyance scrawled across her face. "Damn brat," she growled ready to elbow him in the stomach to wake him up when she noticed that the white patch covering his stitching was now dark red and leaking blood a bit.
C.C. panicked a bit as she noticed the other wounds on his body were reacting in similar ways. "Damn you, you brat..." she muttered trying to think of what to do to save the man. The only thing she could think of doing was to give him her Code to make sure he didn't die from blood loss. "You're gonna pay for this you idiot..." she muttered as she pressed her hands against his left pectoral, a dull light engulfing both of them. The woman felt the energy drain out of her as she felt the Code pass from her body to his. "Brat..." she muttered out as she blacked out, falling on top of her partner.
Alex awoke several hours later feeling a groggy feeling in his head. "Shouldn't push my self this hard," he muttered as he stumbled out of the bed and to the bathroom. He splashed some water on his face as he tried an old trick he used to clear his head; turn his Geass to the max for a few moments. The problem was when he tried it that he found his Geass was gone. It took him a few moments to notice the mark on his chest that signified he now had a Code. "You witch!" Alex snarled as he stormed back into the bedroom, seeing her laying still on the bed. "No," he muttered as he ran over to her and checked her vitals, finding them to be strong. "Good now I can yell at her," he muttered mentally as he shook the woman.
C.C. opened her eyes and looked at him, "I'm not in the mood to do it now," she muttered angrily, "So, leave me alone."
"What, was I a little too rough last night?" he questioned as he looked at the woman. He was about to bitch her out when he noticed the dark brown patches of fabric covering his stitches. "Was I bleeding?" he questioned, pulling off the gauze as he noticed the ripped stitches.
"You were," the witch groaned, "It's incredible, all the brats are the same, first they are charming, and then, if they get what they want they become…." she started saying really annoyed, "this." the woman added; glaring at him with furious eyes.
"Hey I don't want your bloody code," he said, annoyed that she thought that was his end goal. "Hell I want my Geass back and I want you to have the Code," he muttered, lying down next to the woman. "That way I don't have to worry about you getting hurt."
She sat on the bed and looked at Alex really angrily. Since she lived with him, she had never felt so much hate. Suddenly she stuck her hand on his cheek. "You know you could have died if I didn't do that, and I can not let you die, I can not even consider going through that again," she shouted him, "I do not have to worry about you getting hurt..." she repeated trying to imitate his voice. "You can't even begin to understand how it feels," she growled, allowing her annoyance to get to her. "How it feels to see people become cursed and to see them die due to the power I give them. At least now I can be sure you won't die."
"Don't want it," he said looking into here eyes, his tone playful and nonchalant. "I'll do better when I can dodge bullets rather than take them with out dying," he said as he pressed his lips against hers. "I won't die. If this happens again you give me your Code again...simple as that," he explained, a smirk on his face. "Now lets give you a Geass so you can take your Code back and I can get my Geass back..."
C.C. punched him again on his face, but this time she did it softly, and kissed him. Alex touched the woman's hand, momentarily connecting her mind with his. The only thought he had was to give her a Geass so he could give her the Code back. Things just seemed to happen naturally after that. He felt an energy passing from his body and into hers for a few moments before everything seemed to fade back to normal. When he opened his eyes the man noticed she had a bird like glyph
glowing in each eye. "So I guess I just restored your previous Geass, which is to..." he trailed off, wanting her to finish the statement.
"Which is nothing for you..." the witch muttered with a smirk. "Now, if you want your tick-tock Geass back..." C.C. taunted him with a smirk, changing the subject of the conversation, "all you have to do is give me my Code."
"Fine," the man said with a sigh, hoping to get a bit of information out of the woman. "Ready to be a godess again?" he questioned, pulling her body against his.
The green haired woman growled, placing her hands on his chest, pushing away from him, "Why you still naked?"
"I could ask you the same thing," the man said, his arms wrapped around her. "I don't think we've exactly had time for those pleasantries."
"Well, you'll be able to play with the time again, so I don't think the time be a problem," taunted him with her evil look.
"Smart ass," he said, parting her hair and pressing his lips against her forehead. As he did this he focused on transferring the Code to her. After a few moments he felt all the energy from his body leave him and get transferred into her. "Is this what it felt like for her?" he questioned mentally, having the world start to fade away around him. "It feels like dying..."
"I love you, I really do, so please... Don't, just don't..." the woman cried on her lover's chest, "Don't go, I really need you..." she screamed to him, seeing how the man was closing his eyes, as he was nearly dead. "You can't go, I love you," she repeated with teary eyes, kissing his lips.
"I love you too," said the man that was dyeing in front of her, "I'll be always..." he added, but he could not continue because the blood he was coughing up
All of a sudden, the gorgeous woman hugged him, and screamed with all her strength, "I am pregnant, you can leave us!".
The man opened his eyes and gave her a sweet smile, "I... I..." the man tried to say as life left his body.
"Boring" C.C. said in a dull tone from the couch, and all of a sudden, all the channel changed turned to a Pizza Hut commercial. The witch smiled when she saw the big Cheese-kun holding a huge pizza with extra cheese. The woman moaned as she ate a piece of that same pizza, that she ordered thirty minutes ago. "This is what I call pleasure," she whispered, sitting into the couch, seeing her huge and extra-cheese pizza, her beautiful Cheese-kun, and the TV.
Alex woke up, his head buzzing in pain. "What happened?" he asked opening his eyes only to find that his head was resting in C.C.'s lap. As his senses came about to him he realized that he had been dressed and that the sounds around him seemed to be slurred and sluggish. "Did you give me my Geass back?" he inquired, too woozy to deal with trying to turn it down to a normal speed.
She gave him a fake smile; taking a piece of paper and cleaning her hands, "How do you feel today?" she asked him evading his question.
"Like a train hit me," he said as he focused, ignoring the buzzing feeling in his head. After a few moments he had realized that she indeed restored his powers. "Thanks," he muttered as he turned it down so it was all but off."
"You'll be fine, don't be crybaby," said as she ate a new piece of the pizza.
"You enjoy spending my hard earned money don't you?" the man asked as he looked at the woman.
"What did you want me to do? Die of hunger? Die of boredom?" the green haired woman asked him in a bitchy tone, "It would be easy for you, but I can't die, remember?"
"No but what about the pizza we got...just how many days ago was that damned gala thing?" the man questioned, not knowing how much time had passed since then.
"I don't know... I think that..." the witch said trying to remember it, "maybe two or three days, I don't know," she told him looking into his eyes, and shrugged her shoulders.
"Great...two or three days..." the Geass user muttered, sitting up right. "Well at least I didn't have to heal on my own," he muttered. "Thanks..."
"Do you want?" asked him with a big smile, pointing to the pizza, "It has extra cheese," C.C. announced to him as if it was the best thing on Earth.
"Sure," he said taking a slice and biting into it, finding himself enjoying the food a great deal due to the fact that he hadn't eaten in so long. "I'm guessing I was only out for no more than a day after I passed out when I gave you your code back, right?"
"Hum... Well, I think you have right, that means..." C.C. whispered opening her eyes, " I was watching a marathon soap opera for 16 hours..." she said it with a loud voice looking the man with angry eyes, "And it was your fault," the witch growled at Alex taking distance from him.
"Don't start that again," the man sighed, continuing to eat pizza like nothing happened. "And I said thanks for saving my life."
"I can start when I want," she responded with a sexy voice, acting as if she was pretty offended, "Besides, you should say thanks for other things," the witch told him from the other side of the couch, smirking.
"Hey that was just as good for you as it was for me," the man said, irritation thick in his voice. "So I don't really wanna hear it about that."
C.C. leaned toward the table where the pizza was, and took a wad of cheese that had slid off the pizza and threw it on his face. "Idiot, I was joking" C.C. sighed, irritated.
The man peeled the cheese off of his face and threw it back at her, causing it to stick to her bosom. "It's not a good idea to joke with a sickly man," he advised
C.C. grabbed the offending cheese and threw it in the Pizza Hut box, then she stood up and tuned off the TV, "Well, as you are sick and you are not in a good mood, I'm going to sleep."
"Don't," he said looking at her, not sure why he felt bad, just knowing that he did. "Just stay here." She looked at him really surprised, then took her Cheese-kun and hugged him as she sat again on the couch. "I wanna talk about something serious," the man said with a sigh, not knowing exactly how to deal with the problem presented to him.
She just gave him an indifferent look, "What?" asked him.
"The Order remnants," he stated, the words carrying an extreme weight with them.
"Can you explain a little bit more? I'm not in your head, idiot..." C.C. told him with anger, knowing what was going next.
"Delilah isn't smart enough to pull something like this off, nor does she have the ambition," he explained, a smirk creeping across his lips. "That means they're pulling the strings. She just looked at him, hugging her Cheese-kun, waiting as he continued his point of view. "We aren't responsible for them but..." the man said, shifting his gaze to her, "we can't just let them go around and screw up the peace that Lelouch bought us..."
C.C. closed her eyes and buried her head in Cheese-kun, "I know that," replied, "I will do anything to preserve his dream" she whispered.
"Then we have to fight them," the man said simply as he looked at the green haired immortal. "So how do you suppose we do that?"
"We can be helpful for the United Federation of Nations, we can join with them..." she said looking Alex with hoping eyes.
"Missing some of your old friends?" he questioned, honestly wondering if she did miss them.
"I've never missed anyone since I have my memories..." the witch told him with her normal tone of voice, indifferent and unfriendly, "All I missed is...never mind, you'll get mad if I say it," she muttered, staring at the floor and clutching her Cheese-kun.
"I promise you that I won't get mad if you say it," he said with sincerity. Even if he did get mad he could hide it very easily.
She sought the truth in his eyes for several seconds. "I don't have friends, just Lelouch... was. So I can't miss others than him," C.C. sighed sadly, "Well, I miss my old Cheese-kun, and Suzaku at the end," the woman explained to him trying to joke a little, wishing for his compassion.
"What about me?" the man asked as he moved across the couch until he was sitting next to her. "Would you miss me if I was gone?" he pressed, wanting to know what her answer would be.
"I don't know," she responded, "I never thought I would miss Lelouch," the woman added with a sad smile.
"Hmm, well then I'll just have to give you a reason to miss me then," the man said with a laugh as he put his arm around her.
"Lelouch gave m-..." C.C. started saying but the phone rang. She looked at it waiting for Alex to answer it, but he didn't do anything. The woman picked up the phone, and immediately put the mouthpiece against her neck to muffle her voice, "It's Nonette," she whispered to her partner.
Alex took the phone from the green haired woman and responded, "Hello?""God these people have the worst possible timing," he muttered mentally as he waited for a reply.
"Hello there," Nonette said from the other end, "How are our favorite suspects doing?" she asked him with her happy voice.
"Fine," Alex stated, slightly irritated at the fact she was calling. "Any real reason you're calling or do you just wanna be friends?"
"Cornelia wants to talk with you, and with your friend," the woman said getting serious for the first time.
"When?" he asked, trying to keep this short and sweet, though he wasn't sure exactly why he was in a rush.
"Tomorrow morning, at 8:30, Britannian embassy, be punctual," the former Knight of the Rounds replayed dryly.
"Should we dress in our best outfits?" the man asked sarcastically, not caring how he dressed on any given day.
The woman took those words as a confirmation of the invitation, and then hung up the phone.
"I think I pissed her off a bit," the man said with a slight laugh as he looked at the green haired immortal. "Cornelia wants to meet with us at the Britt embassy tomorrow at 8:30," he explained.
"Okay," simply said, hugging with the new Cheese-kun tightly.
"Let's get to bed," the man said with a sigh as he turned off the TV and headed into the bedroom. The woman looked at him and follow to the bedroom, carrying her doll.
