Thanks to people who reviewed…and concerning the fact that this is the second chapter I've posted today I had chapter ten done since Wednesday night but I kept forgetting to bring the stuff in to school and update.
The name Shaun is the name of one of my friends who's sort of half quit school at the moment. I love that name (the person is great too heeheehee) and I just thought it would be perfect for this.
DISCLAIMER: if I owned Sweep then would I really be sitting here doing this? I bloody well doubt it.
Chapter eleven.
I had my son last night, and like I kept telling Charlie he was indeed a boy and a beautiful boy too. We're calling him Shaun after a friend of Charlie's, and it's the perfect name for him. He's beautiful, so much so that I'm finding it hard to write anything. I've moved into the house with Charlie too, because he couldn't bare to be away from his son for any amount of time and I'd hate Shaun to grow up not living with his daddy. He hardly cries at all but as Hillary says this is early days and it's going to start soon. I suppose, but I'm not thinking about that yet. The twins are fifteen months old so they're going to be a bit hectic. They're not babies anymore, they're toddlers and my Shaun is still only a baby. Well, more than that he's a new born. He's beautiful, so beautiful. We're having a Kithic blessing for him next week but for now we're having a quiet few days. Morgan and Hunter are coming over later to see him for the first time but apart from them the only people who's seen him so far are our immediate family; Hillary, Dad, Akasha, Saoirse, Charlie's Dad and Sam. Sam only saw him because I wanted mums brother to be here when I had my child, him being my closest relative on that side of my family. Of course he came straight away when Charlie rang him and told him I was in Labour, and he still hasn't left. He's staying in the spare bedroom of our three bedroom house. It's mad to think we've only been living here for a week, I haven't had a chance to write anything about anything in so long. It's only a small cottage really, three bedrooms, one for me and Charlie, one for Shaun when he's old enough and one for visitors. Then we've got the sitting room, kitchen and hallway plus two bathrooms. There's a large extension on the back which we plan to use for circles when it comes to our turn too, but so far it's empty. Totally unlike the rest of the house really, because the house seems to be strangely cluttered even though neither me nor Charlie brought much with us. I guess that's just the effect which comes with a house which has just become home to a baby.
Must go, Shaun is just woken up. Alisa.
TUESDAY
I can't believe it! Our baby was born last night and totally against what we all expected we have a son. I never even thought about having a son though Alisa seemed to know all along that that would be what we'd have.
His name is Shaun and he's amazing, though not more than a day old he's already filled with character and emotions. There were only three other people present at the birth, Sam, Dad and Hillary. I think Alisa wanted her dad with her too but she didn't mind Hillary taking control and ordering everyone but two others out. I suppose she was thinking along the lines that Hillary's just gone through it all and knows what type of thing you want to happen. If I was in that place then I'd want a lot less people around me anyway. It'd just be too stressy.
I could tell Alisa was having problems and ready to flip even from right at the beginning. She was so panicky and scared, I was afraid she was going to have a fit but thankfully Hillary kept her calm and managed to get her okay and ready to bring our baby into the world in style. And she did a smack up job of it too. Hillary said it was one of the fastest births she'd ever seen and I didn't know this before but she used to be a midwife. Like I told Alisa, maybe there is some use for the annoying step-mum after all. She wasn't amused and threatened to hit me, but that could have been something to do with the fact that she'd just finished having a child.
He's asleep at the moment, like he is most of the time. We were supposed to be letting him sleep in a cot last night but Alisa just wouldn't let it happen so he shared the bed with us. It's mad to think she's only seventeen, really young to be having her first child.
The first of many I can't help hoping. If she has more then I will be so happy, because it's always been my dream to have a good family and now I'm finally on the way to that dream coming true. There is a Kithic blessing for him next week when we've all settled down as a family but Hunter and Morgan are coming over tomorrow to give him a quick blessing anyway. I'm so glad, because if there was only one thing I was worried about it was how our Coven Leaders would take it. Morgan and Hunter are leaving soon anyway to go too England or Ireland or something so Alisa's been asked to take over as joint coven leader with Sky. I don't know whether she'll take the place though, it's something very big to ask a seventeen year old and she's just had her son. I don't think she will take the place really.
Anyway, I've got to go; I need some sleep before the little devil wakes up again. Goddess bless everyone and let Shaun and my family stay healthy. Glátherbrein.
Kinda short chapter but that's cause I have my mum asking me to get of the computer…cow. And I've got a friend staying with her two year old daughter this weekend so I'm having some problems concentrating. Anyway, reviews appreciated though I hardly seem to need to remind some people.
