Here is Chapter 11! Enough of my ramble!

11. Moving In: Part the Last: Pets and. . . Kids?!

A shaking round of trailers attached to an ugly, rusted bus came careening into the valley in front of the Inn. Pixie flinched, hugging the corner of her Inn as if that would protect it if any of the equipment detached and went flying towards the establishment. Everybody else was gathered around the front of it, or Hollie's farm, waiting for all of their furniture, pets, or etc to be unloaded so they could truly call this place home.

Rein clapped in happiness when her ebony stead sauntered out of the furthest trailer, cantering over with its pelt rippling over the muscles. She threw her arms around the neck and called, "Nightmare! It is about time you got here boy, you wouldn't believe how many weeds I had to hand pick yesterday! Now I can attach the tiller to you, oh joyous day!"

Nightmare neighed and shook his mane, snorting almost as if he was laughing.

"Woah, what a beautiful horse."

Rein turned and smiled at Jin, who had three carts of what must have been teaching materials rolling after him. "Thank you! Nice. . . Em. . . Books."

Jin laughed, "I know, hardly exciting on the outside, but borrow some of the John Green I have for the library and your life may never be the same."

"Oh really now?"

"Yeah!"

Green eyes twinkled in mirth as Rein insisted she had to tow Nightmare across the bridge. "Let me help you up onto his back." Jin offered, which Rein politely accepted.

The Clydesdale snorted once more, before nuzzling her affectionately and allowing her to lead him back to her ranch over the bridge. Which creaked a bit too loud when the duo crossed over.

Jared disappeared into the back of the third out of six silver horse trailer, pulling out two hutches where cats sat still and very straight-faced. One was a black short hair, and the other had dark gray hair that gradually turned to lighter gray and then to white at the very tip of his tail.

"Hey Jared!" Roxanne called, striding up to him with a wide smile, donned in her casual clothes as opposed to her last night splendor. Jared find it shocking - that internally - he was slightly disappointed with this fact, though that didn't make Roxy's birdcage shirt and black jeans shorts any less appealing.

"Are those your cats?"

Jared nodded slowly, lifting each cage in turn. "This black haired one with the white on his chest and coming out of his ears is Majic, and the Maine Coon in here, his name is Lenard."

Roxanne leaned to be eye level with the two cats, and petted Majic, avoiding Lenard after being told of his rather aggressive nature. "Where did you get them?" she inquired, as Majic blinked his green eyes lazily at the brunette.

"I got Majic from the pound, he was going to be put down for biting a human, and Lenard was injured pretty badly, Majic helped me find him."

Roxanne nodded slowly, "That is pretty cool. I'm glad they allow pets here you know? I don't think I'd be able to live without Bambi."

"Bambi?"

"Bambi is my Labrador. I've had her since I was five. I'm not sure which trailer she is in, and it is so crowded over there it looks like I'll have to wait a little bit."

That much was true. People - from Moonshine and as well as from the bus - were clustered about the extension of vehicles, moving furniture and pets alike. Jared nodded slowly, "I'll help you get her out if you'd like?"

"You are quite the gentlemen, but that is okay. Get your cats all set." Roxanne grinned, giving Majic one last pet before tapping Lenard's change nicely. "See you later?"

"Yeah."

Jared headed towards the lab, as Roxanne moved over to the throng.

Elise skipped away with a turtle, his head snapping to and fro as she made her way home. Oliver interceded, staring into the unblinking eyes of the small creature as if it held a deep dark secret, "Turtles are evil."

"W-what?" Elise stammered, laughing a bit at the Irishman's unmoving gaze, "Roy is a good reptile, he won't hurt you."

"Oh yeah? Tell that to all the snapping turtles I had the misfortune to meet with ass first at Sea World."

Elise rose one thin, black eyebrow. "There. . . Aren't snapping turtles at Sea World."

"That is what they told me too, but be warned." Moving his index and birdie finger from his eyes to the turtle's, Oliver backed away, disappearing over near the buses.

William took a pen and wrote on his hand, "Irishman afraid of turtles." before leaving poor, confused Elise with her thoughts.

Soladat had a Pyrenees in her arms, the huge animal dwarfing her substantially. Its fur fluffed out as its head pivoted around, looking at all of the men and women who couldn't help but snicker after the beady eyes were turned from them.

Lock approached her and shuffled his feet awkwardly, trying to swallow the bile that threatened to spill. If he was anymore nervous, he'd pass out. "A Pyrenees? Seems a bit big for you."

Soladat stared at him for awhile, almost with cold indifference, "Yes. His name is Chicken."

"Well then, don't let Elise get him! Eh he . . . he." Lock cleared his throat and scratched the back of his head. She obviously didn't find his whole chicken-cook joke very humorous.

Lock reached forward to pet the creature to amend in some way, which lead to the rather proud dog to turn and bite his hand. "Ouch!"

Sola snickered, "Sorry, he is a bit. . . Picky when it comes to people."

"Some might even say. . . Pecky." Jin joked, chortles ricocheting through the crowd for a brief instance.

Lock held the bleeding puncture wounds with a wobbling cocky smirk, "Yeah. I figured as much."

Chicken growled triumphantly, looking at Lock with almost human eyes. "I win this round." they said. Black, small, and round . . . And full of evil.

Lock murmured as he turned around, "Oh it is on."

Pixie happily embraced her golden Labrador, whom she told Jude was named Ouran, as aforementioned artist's monkey - Jack - sat on top of his head and clapped occasionally. "So you have a . . . a monkey?"

"Yeah! After I saw Pirates of the Caribbean, I had to get one." Jude exclaimed happily, tossing up small, round biscuits to the primate which he juggled all the while smiling toothily.

"That explains why he is the same brown/golden fur." Analise nodded, giggling as she did so.

Toni approached the duo and sat next to Jude, a matted mongrel wrapped in his arms, "What is up?"

Jude's monkey sprang off of his head and dove into his shirt, pointing at the demon-esque feline that sat in the taller man's lap. "Woah man," Jude stammered, "What the hell is that thing?"

Ouran was practically crushing Pixie as Toni continued, "His name is Gunner!"

"It has a gender?!" William snorted as his boa constrictor circled his neck, "It looks like the depths of hell personified!"

"Says the guy with the snake!" Ana twitched.

"Oh come on, Dallas? He is a sweetheart." William feigned innocence as he held the snake in front of her face, "Go on, pet him!"

Squeaking, Pixie responded by taking her dog by the collar into the Inn in no time flat.

"She totally digs me." Will scoffed, patting Dallas' head.

"Shut up, William."

"Got any pets, Gary?"

Gary turned to look at June as he pulled out his crate of miner's equipment, panting he replied, "Nope, none, you?"

"Nah. I don't do well with animals. Need anY HELP."

Gary whimpered almost, and she was doing so well. "No thanks, I've got it."

The loud red head nodded before flouncing away, helping Roxanne with what looked to be a record player over to towards the bar. Yelling as a Rolling Stones album clicked along, starting entirely of its own accord.

"Some might even say. . . Own record."

"Okay Jin, easy on the puns."

Gut churning, heart fluttering, Hollie Darcy waited as the tons of trailer backed off of the bridge and U-turned back up the hill. Everybody was helping everybody move into their houses, but Hollie just stood by her furniture and waited. The quaking of the monstrosity soon gone, only to be replaced by an eerie silence.

Caius stood next to here, merely curious to find out why she was acting the way she was, . . .and to irritate her. It was working, because by the flick of her emerald eyes, she was beyond furious. Whatever it was, it got under her skin pretty badly.

"Caius, don't you have somebody else's life to ruin?"

"Rein is my three o' clock, but till then I'm free." he joked blankly, his gaze meeting hers for a fraction of a second before looking back at the dusty road, "That and, I'm curious to see what you're waiting for."

Hollie swallowed.

"WHO you are waiting for." Caius amended, smirking for a nanosecond.

A revving engine echoed among the hills once more, much healthier than the near dead truck that had hauled the rest of their belongings down earlier. It came down the hill, a sleek but aged Mustang, parking right in front of Hollie and Caius.

Caius watched as the farmer trembled, as the driver's seat door opened and a man with a buzz cut and cold brown eyes came up to Hollie, totally ignoring the male beside her. "Hollie."

"Jay. Hey. Is he inside?" Hollie's voice went from a chilling clip to a warmth when she mentioned the 'him'.

"Yeah. Congratulations by the way." Jay bit back, hulking over the slender woman. Hollie stepped back a bit, obviously intimidated.

His cold clipped words made Hollie roll her eyes regardless, "You deserved it."

Jay turned his back without another word, heading to the trunk. He lowered small blue suitcase with a rocket ship on the front from the back, a green backpack as well. He then set next to Hollie's boxes. "Have a nice life."

"Choke on your Bourbon, slut." Hollie sneered back, quickly turning to smile at the small body who crawled out of the car.

With curly, chocolate colored hair and warm brown eyes, a small boy - probably five or six - trounced from the passenger's seat and into Ms. Darcy's arms. "Mom!"

"Hey Rory, how're you doing?"

"Good!" he responded, a few teeth missing in his face splitting grin. He then realized Caius' existence and looked through his eyelashes up at his mother. "Who is this guy? Is he your. . ." he whispered loudly, being incredibly obvious and somehow finding himself clever, "Boyfrieeeennnddddd?"

"Mommy would rather die of asphyxiation, sweetheart." Caius offered no response emotionally or physically to this proclamation, so Hollie just continued, "Now can you help me with the boxes?"

"Yeah!" clapping his hands, the small boy ran to the nearest box and attempted to lift it, shaking his butt in the air before trying to hoist it up, groaning as he did so. Hollie laugh-sighed and went to help him, Caius merely walking over to where his tent was.

This would surely be interesting, now wouldn't it?

OMAKE

Driving back over the bridge, one of the boards of the tired old contraption snapped up and spiked a thick, wooden splinter into the trunk of the Mustang. Polished with pride and obviously newly painted as well.

Having not heard the bridge, due to the pumping bass that echoed through the town, Jay drove on. Much to the laughter of William and Lock, who high-fived.

"Did you guys do that?" Jin asked, chuckling himself.

"Not us, but whoever did, genius."

EDIT: I thought that Pyrenees was a chicken. . . oh gosh. Funniest mistake ever.

You guys, seriously though, I love writing. Not only because it has been a part of me for so long, not only because you can create magic and lives and adventure with the press of keys or the swipe of a pen, but because of people like you. Thank you. (I totally just sounded like PBS. . XD)

I will try to update as often as I can, but I will not set a date. Don't want to disappoint like I have in the past!

Haha if you'd like to add your opinion on Rory, feel free. If not, I know just enough to make it work ^^

This story will not be taken down. Why? Because I love it. I don't just like it. I love it. So no worries, the writing de-clutter I am doing will not affect this story in the slightest. Sorry for those of you who might have liked my Bleach fic though, it just wasn't working.

Next chapter will be

I love you all very much :D hope you enjoyed the chapter! Be sure to answer the question of the update!
