Alright Everyone we are getting pretty close to the end of this story just to let you know. There may be 5 or 6 more chapters at the most but thats probably going to be it. Let me know how you guys feel about it I really appreciate the reviews.
A few days later Vanessa is getting ready to travel back to her domain and gives Star and Marco another gift this one being a special necklace for each of them to call her once the baby is on her way, or if they are in danger. It looks like a water droplet. Submerge it in water and it will create a mirror or portal depending on what they desire for Vanessa to communicate with them. Moon had been exhausted and didn't even have the energy to get out of bed to bid Vanessa a farewell. Vanessa gave her best friend the longest hug known to mewman kind Star swears.
"Please write. I have missed you very much. Let me know when the little one arrives." Vanessa says as she takes a step toward the sea.
"We will let you know as soon as she gets here, have a safe trip. Please let us know you arrived safely." Eclispa says to her best friend who is already half submerged in the water.
"I will" Vanessa says and then she's gone. Moon was still resting when Eclipsa made it back to the room. Eclipsa walked over to Moon and brushed her silver hair out of her face.
"Rest well my love." Eclipsa mumbles as she gives Moon a kiss on her forehead. Eclipsa makes sure to sound proof the room from outside noises and then leaves quietly.
Eclipsa makes her way down the hall to take a look at the nursery. She walks into the room to see that it's completely finished. She's unsure of when Star and Marco got the time to finish the room along with everything else that had been going on. Eclipsa walks around the room and sees touches of both Star and Marco in the room.
Eclipsa sighs as she looks though the room making sure she knows where everything is before she walks out and heads toward the rose gardens. She walked around enjoying the smell of the roses and the sighs of the garden. She sits down and relaxes for a minute and just takes a long deep breath.
"Are you worried about being a mother?" Eclipsa hears a familiar voice ask, her eyes snap open and she looks over toward where the voice was coming from.
"Hello Glossi, how have you been?" Eclipsa asks completely avoiding the question.
"Great, that still didn't answer my question. So stop avoiding." Glossaryck mentions while floating in front of Eclipsa.
"Yes and No. Star is my daughter but I didn't get to do any of the hard stuff with her." Eclipsa tells him feeling a wave of relief wash over her. She felt good to finally get that pressure off her chest.
"She's going to be a great big sister and you have Moon also. Moon has done this before, you two can handle it. Plus if you have any questions you can always ask me." Glossaryck offers.
"I don't really want parenting advice from someone who's kids have been claiming I'm evil for 300 Plus years." Eclipsa jokes.
"Hey, After the first 200 years they are on their own! They can make their own decisions."
"Still your children." Eclipsa jabs back at him.
"Not my proudest creations, plus being a single dad isn't easy…"
"Its okay, Heckapoo turned out alright. So you've got that going for you."
"True but she's always been a free spirit and a rebel. She does whatever she wants and sometimes she does it more so to piss me off than anything." Glossaryck says as he stops hovering and sits down on the bench next Eclipsa.
"She sounds like me." Eclipsa says wistfully remembering her rebellious stage.
"You were just as much of a handful when you were younger. Star managed to decode your chapter of the book quite early on actually. I was quite impressed with how unaffected she was by the chapter." Glossaryck tells Eclipsa as he stands up and stretches again before settling into a more comfortable position on the bench.
"Unsurprising that she decoded it. She's intelligent."
"You are going to be a great mother. You already are. So stop worrying so much. Just relax and go with the flow." Glossaryk mentions again, reminding Eclipsa about the conversation they were supposed to be having.
"I hate you. I was trying to avoid thinking about it." Eclipsa answers
"I know but it's my job to guide you, make sure you stay on the right path and keep a level head."
"Thanks. But really must be going. I have to make sure Moon eats and the castle is running smoothly." Eclipsa abruptly answers and gets up and starts to walk away from the bench where Glossaryck is still sitting smiling at Eclipsa knowing that he has touched a nerve.
Eclipsa gets into the castle and is walking down the main corridor when he popps up out of nowhere again.
"You know you can't run away from me." Glossaryck mentions as he materializes.
"I'm well aware, but I can open a portal and send you to spend time with your son on the river of time? I bet Reynaldo misses you." Eclipsa threatens, knowing he hates spending time with Reynaldo.
"I think I'll go check on Star." Glossaryck says looking down the hall before disappearing into thin air. Eclipsa smiles brightly and then walks toward the Queens Chambers.
Eclipsa gets into the room and quickly makes her way over to the bed to check on Moon who is thankfully still sleeping. Eclipsa gives Moon a kiss on her forehead and brushes some hair out of her face before making sure she is fully covered by the blanket. Then Eclipsa walks over to Moon's desk and starts getting paperwork in order for her. Making sure that what ever needs signed by Moon is set aside while she works on making things easier for her Queen.
Eclipsa spends a few hours getting all of the paper work in order for Moon and making sure everything is organized. She responds to a few letters sent to the two of them by monsters and mewman's alike then sets them aside as well so Moon can read them before they are sent out.
After everything is taken care of Eclipsa gets up and checks on Moon again who is still sleeping peacefully. Eclipsa smiles as she leans down and gives Moon one more kiss on her forehead and then congers a new glass of water on the nightstand for her love. Eclipsa looks down at the clock on the nightstand and notices it is quite late in the after noon and she should probably have something made for Moon to eat and eat something as well.
"Moon my love, you need to wake up so you can eat." Eclipsa whispers as she sits down on the edge of the bed and gently shakes Moon's shoulder.
"Noooo." Moon whines.
"Please, I'm sure the little one would appreciate something to eat." Eclipsa says quietly knowing that Moon is extra tired lately so she doesn't want to upset her.
"Fine, but promise me you'll come back to bed with me after I eat?" Moon asks.
"I promise." Eclipsa answers and then gets up and heads toward the door. A few minutes later she comes back from the kitchen with two hot plates of food and sets them on the edge of the bed giving alerting Moon with the smell of food.
"Food! It smells delicious." Moon says as she pushes herself up and into a more comfortable position. Eclipsa serves her, her plate of food and then sits across from Moon while she eats. Eclipsa tells Moon about her time spent filling out paperwork and Moon thanks her for the meal and taking time to do the paperwork for her. Then the two of them cuddle up in bed after their meals are gone and sent to the kitchen. Eclipsa wraps her arms around Moon from behind and places her hand on her stomach.
A few minutes later Eclipsa feels something bump her hand and Moon grunt loudly. A few seconds later before Moon even gets a chance to take a full breath Eclipsa feels another bump that feels forceful.
"Is she Kicking?" Eclipsa asks shocked at the force of the kick.
"Yepp…" Moon answers winded.
"Wow! I can't believe how strong she is!" Eclipsa said excitedly.
"She's quite strong. I'm just glad she can't use magic in there. That second kick was quite overwhelming." Moon said still trying to catch her breath.
"Are you alright?" Eclipsa asks concerned about Moon now.
"Fine. I just didn't expect her first kick to knock the wind out of me." Moon said.
"She's our daughter, you had to expect that she would be powerful." Eclipsa tells Moon.
"I did, I just didn't expect her to be this strong inside of me. But it's a good sign." Moon said as she felt the little one kick again causing Eclipsa to smile into her shoulder.
"I think that's amazing." Eclipsa tells Moon as she holds her love tighter. Moon smiles and just endures the kicks from her daughter knowing its probably because she just ate and the little one is getting energy.
"She will settle down soon." Moon answers getting tired again. She starts to drift off to sleep once more as the baby starts to settle down. Eclipsa is still laying there with a megawatt smile that could light up a room as she held her love.
