Salix swung her legs off the edge of the bed and stood up just as the door opened to reveal her sister and her twin friends. She didn't look up, but kept her nose in the book she had been reading "I thought you three were playing hide-and-seek." "We were but the place is too big. We can't find each other." sighed Cypress "There's nothing to do."
Salix looked up with a stifled giggle "One's gone out and there are no magazines if that's what you're suggesting!" Cypress shook her head "Is two in?" Salix nodded "Why else would I be down here? He's taking a shower, but don't go in, you know what the twins are like."
Cypress turned round and winked at her friends. This was all too perfect. She had made sure she explained the 'ingenious' plan to her friends before they came down here and this fit in perfectly.
"By the way," started Salix turning to the twin girls behind her sister and putting her book down "How's Persephone? Jeuneun told me what happened." Perle sighed "Mama's nervous but ok. But she told us not to expect a normal baby brother or sister. What does she mean by that?" "Ask your father." said Salix with a forced smile. She wasn't the best person to explain that.
Salix picked up the book again. "Aren't you girls going to go and find something to do?"
"Oh, we've found something alright." smiled Cypress evily
"Something really fun." added Perle wickedly
"Cypress told him." smirked Imi.
Salix looked up "Told who what?"
"I told two that you like like him."
"What? You better not ha- I mean... where did you get that idea from Cy?"
At that moment Two walked out of the bathroom with only a white towel wrapped around his waist. Salix blushed a deep red behind her book "Told you." Cypress said smugly with a superior look on her face. " told you what?" Asked two running his fingers through his dreds. "Nothing." Salix snapped hastilly, kicking her sister in the shin and hiding her face completely in the book. Imi strided over to Two and whispered something quietly in his ear; "Salix does like you. Look how much she's blushing!" Two looked over at Salix who was avoiding his gaze at all costs; clearly very embarrassed.
Imi looked at perle who looked at Cypress who nodded. This was ingenious part. "One, two, three!" shouted Cypress and the three girls ran out, the lock clicked from the other side of the door.
"Damn!" screamed Salix running to the door.

Jeuneun looked at Persephone's stomach which had swollen considerably in the last couple of hours. That was how they were sure the thing wasn't going to be normal whatever it was, it was growing at an impossible rate. It was only a matter of time. He had prepared himself for when he had to kill it. It wasn't a simple matter of 'if' Jeuneun was certain that anything that came from that world couldn't be anything resembling good, or normal.
He jumped as his little sisters barged into the room along with Cypress. They all wore large grins on their faces and were giggling loudly. Jeuneun growled "what do you want?"
The merovingian frowned. "Jeuneun zat is no way to talk to your sisters."
"Well they haven't caught me in the best of moods have they?"
"Jeuneun."
"sorry."
Suddenly Cypress's eyes widened and she tugged on the back of Imi's skirt "I need to talk to you and Perle. There's a problem." The three girls walked out.
"Two can just phase through the door!" The twins groaned "Oh no!"
******
"Phase through the door and unlock the door Two." said Salix who was still as red as a tomato. Two shok his head "I want to talk to you. " Salix groaned. "Do you like me?"
Salix shook her head "My sister has the wrong end of the stick. I said I liked someone, well I still like him actally. She just assumed it was you. I like you as a friend of course, ever since you helped us I have but not - " She broke off and clicked her tongue "Will you unlock the door now?"
"You make it sound like I'm the one who locked us in here." Salix didn't answer. "Who did you like?" he asked. "I'm not going to tell you that!" She cried "Tell me or I'm not unlocking the door." "That, is blackmail." Two nodded with a wicked grin. Salix growled.
"I don't even know why I like him, I mean he is th merovingian's son and -" Two chucked "You like Jeuneun?" Salix nodded weakly. "Why?" "I told you I don't know, he's just..." she sighed with a little smile on her face. "I mean he's just, I don't even really talk to him. I can't talk to him, like today he was telling me what happened to persephone and I couldn't say I word, I bet he thinks I'm a real ditz. He's gorgeous."
Two looked her up and down. "That was just word salad." "See! I can't even talk about him!" "How about if I tell him? Or my brother?" She shook her head "You dare." "Then you tell him. You have to do something." "Maybe, you should tell him. I don't like saying. And I'll just mess it up." "fine." "fine." They both nodded unsure of what to make of that conversation.
Before they could decide what to do next there was a scream of pain from upstairs. Two phased through the door and unlocked it quickly and they both ran upstairs quickly. Persephone was holding her stomach and breathing deeply. The merovingian was supporting her.
Persephone was in labour.

Jeuneun and Salix... aww. I think it's cute plus I've killed two birds with one stone (I said I'd put them both in a romance didn't say who with! :))
Ok. Time for a vote. I've planned out the rest of the story but it doesn't matter what gender the demon/baby/whatever's born (I don't want to spoil anything) is. Please vote for what gender you want it to be at the end of your reveiws by writing:
I VOTE MALE/FEMALE
Only one vote per reveiw but I'm not limiting the number of reveiws you send in, so if you really want the baby to be a boy for example send in two or three reveiws. Make sense?
OK. I declare the voting open!
