I took out that note thing who knows why I put it in there anyway."::Waits patiently:: "Now here is chapter 11.
Chapter eleven
"Going back"
They stayed in New Zealand for two months after Camy was born, because the Keenes weren't coming back to Britain with them and Jesse needed time to bond with his daughter. Jesse's full memory was back. His jewelry business was starting up again and he created fertility gems from scratch because he didn't have the original. But only one would have healing powers. Jesse was known as a miracle worker he gave the gems to infertile couples, told them what to do and success. The gems were pretty expensive though.
Baby Camy was happy and energetic. She was happy go lucky, her bright blue eyes and curly dark hair gave her a cheery appearance. Everybody loved her, being the first baby in a long time. Bryce and Hillary were packing up because they were leaving for Britain later that day. Lara was getting Camy bundled up because it was pretty cold outside. She took the little girl in her arms, Camy pulled at her hair.
"Babies have a strong grip." Mrs. Keene said to her.
"Yes I can tell." Lara smiled. "A little help please."
Mrs. Keene helped loosen the baby's grip from Lara's hair, She gave Camy one of her toys to keep her hands busy.
"Thanks" Lara said as she put Camy into her baby carrier.
"Ok, fed, changed, bundled up" Lara went through the list in her head. "Am I missing anything?"
"No, I think Jesse packed up the rest of her things." Mrs. Keene said.
"Ok" Lara said as she kissed the baby on her head. She stood up, In the past two months she had lost a little of the baby fat she gained when she was pregnant. It was one of her priorities when she was back in Britain, to loose the extra pounds.
"Mrs. Keene, can I ask you a question?" She asked.
"Sure anything" Mrs. Keene answered.
"Who was Dia really? When she attacked that day four months ago you seemed to know her."
Mrs. Keene took a deep breath. "Dia, or Diana she was called was my sister. She was perfect in every way except for one, she couldn't have children. When Jesse invented the fertility gem for his wife she was jealous of him. When Jesse's wife died she wanted it and was mad to find out that it had been hidden and only the woman who was right to mother the special child would find it. When Dia found out that the gem had chosen the new mother of the child she sent armies to try to get rid of the mother and gain the child herself. But she didn't succeed in getting the child by stealing the gem." She explained.
"We got lucky." Lara said.
"Yes you did, but knowing my sister she will be back. But I am unsure of when but be cautious just don't restrict Camy too much, let her be herself, especially as a teen, in my experience if you restrict them too much, they'll rebel." Mrs. Keene said.
"Hey Lara you ready?" Bryce popped his head in.
"Yes"
"Let's go!"
"Coming" Lara put the pink blanket around Camy and brought her carrier out of the bedroom.
"Thanks Mrs. Keene"
"No problem" Mrs. Keene tapped Lara on the shoulder. "You'll be a fine mother"
"Good bye" Lara smiled at Mrs. Keene.
Bryce took Camy's carrier from Lara and they went to the airport
At the airport as they waited for the plane to arrive Jesse played with Camy a little more.
"I will visit at least once a year," Jesse said.
"Alright" Lara said.
After saying good bye to the Keenes Lara, Bryce and Hilary got on the plane and flew to Britain. While on the plane Lara changed Camy into a short sleeved onesie with teddy bears on it so she wouldn't overheat.
Within the next few days they were back at the old Croft manor.
"Well it sure is good to be home." Lara whispered as she stepped into her house, Camy asleep in her carrier. It was dark and about 10:30 at night. The crickets were chirping and the warm summer breeze came through the windows. Bryce and Hilary brought the luggage in as Lara carried the baby in. Camy woke up and started to cry a little. Lara picked her up and held her.
"Hello Welcome back Lara." She heard a familiar voice say.
Lara turned around curiously.
"A-Alex?!" She said.
"Yes" The man said. His name was Alex West he had medium hair and wonderful eyes.
The man looked at the baby in Lara's arms who had quieted down.
"Boy or Girl?" Alex asked.
"Girl" Lara said wondering why he had asked, it was just a little awkward for him to be asking that.
"I already know what happened about a year ago, Hilary told me all about it." He said as he walked up to her and carefully touched the baby's dark hair.
"At first I couldn't believe it, now that I see it I do." He took his hand off of Camy's head.
Lara felt a little weird about this she wasn't used to him being like this.
"Are you sure you're alright with this?" Lara asked.
"Yes" Alex said.
"What's her name?"
"Camy Rose Alexandria Croft." Lara answered.
Alex smiled.
Me: "Well I know this seems a little weird because it's been a while since I saw the first movie, so I am really sorry if I messed anything up, I'll fix it when I have the chance."
