(Frodo's POV)
As soon as I heard the knock on the door, I raced to open it. Jamie had been allowed to come home the day before and was sitting at the kitchen table, holding our little Ria.
I opened the door with a ginormous grin on my face. I think I started acting like a little kid, getting a piece of candy. Emma and Billee grinned back at me, though Emma's looked a little strained. Elrond laughed and Benny and Damon just raised their eyebrows and chuckled. I invited them all in. Emma walked in first, gave me a hug and went to see Jamie. I heard them start talking animatedly. The others stopped to talk to me for a while. Elrond congratulated me and shook my hand. I just couldn't get the grin off my face. I was so happy.
(Jamie's POV)
Emma walked into the kitchen and I got up carefully and gave her a hug. Ria burbled and made baby sounds. Emma cooed.
"Can I hold her?"
"Sure." I said and handed her carefully to my best friend. Emma cradled the baby hobbit in her arms. She looked very sad.
"Emma, I'm sorry."
"Not your fault. So don't be."
"You could always adopt. Believe me, you don't want to go through that procedure like I did. It's bloody painful."
That made Emma laugh. I knew it would. The guys came into the kitchen then and they all congratulated me. Elrond gave me a hug. I smiled.
"So, what's her name, Jamie?" asked Elrond.
"Arianwen Brooke Baggins. But referred to as Ria."
Emma handed Ria to Elrond to hold. He took her and tickled her chin. I laughed. Ria, being only three days old, just burbled. Everyone laughed. Casper came in then. He looked up at all the people in the room and recognized everyone but Benny. She sniffed him cautiously and he knelt down to pat her. Quickly, she ran to her old basket and brought her tennis ball to him, hoping to play catch, no doubt. Everyone laughed again.
"It looks like you've made a friend, Benny." Said Frodo.
Boromir chose to come in at that moment. Everyone but Damon, Benny and Emma said hello. He smiled at everyone and said hello back. Then I saw him glance at Emma. I think he was hoping to talk to her. I don't know.
Someone else knocked on the door and I went to answer it. I opened it and smiled when I saw Sam, Merry, Pippin, Blue, Reesa, Rosie, Julia, Jake, Stacey, Tracy and Baz at the door.
"Hi guys. You come to see the kidlet?"
"Yep. Congratulations, Sis." Said Julia and gave me a big hug. I got a big hug from everyone. As they all walked inside, I pulled the twins aside.
"You two, stop flirting with Boromir. Emma is here now. And I don't want the atmosphere anymore tense between them. Okay?"
The twins promised. And then we all walked into the kitchen. I began making tea and coffee for everyone.
