Together
– Forever! Part 38:
From
mothers to daughter about babies
--------------------
"Okay...
one thing done... now the other... what about the baby?"
"Do
we have to talk about this? I really... am not feeling good"
Prue
tried
"Prue... maybe I didn't see you grow up... but you are
still my daughter and I see hen you are laying... and at the moment
you are!"
Prue looked away
"Prue?"
"I... there won't
be a baby! I'm not able to do this... I'm gonna disappoint Andy
and the baby again..."
"That's nonsense, honey..."
"Then
why do I have those dreams?"
"What dreams?"
"I'm...
alone and... suddenly if eel very weird... my belly's growing by
the second and then I give birth to a sweet little baby girl. She
suddenly lays all dressed next to me... I pick her and then... I... I
realize... that she's dead... I call for Andy and Leo... but no one
comes... no one helps..."
"That's just a dream..."
"No
it's not... what about Meghan?"
Both women went silent
"I'm
staying in bed... for the baby... I try... not to get involved in
anything... just cause I wanna protect her!"
Patty and Julia
look at each other and both nodded
"Well sweetie... you have to
understand, that you need to find the balance between this here and
like it was back then with Meghan..."
"Yeah sure..."
Prue
said lowly
"No... It's true. Your mom's right. You know,
when I was pregnant with Andy and your mom with you... we acted the
complete different way. While I was just like you now... always
staying home... always careful. Reading a million of baby books and
all..."
"I acted just like you with Meghan. I didn't even
think about being pregnant... I just continued to act the way I was,
without being pregnant. I was demon hunting... shopping... carrying
the heaviest things... even though your dad always yelled at
me..."
"Just like Richard... he couldn't stand me staying in
the bedroom anymore... so they grabbed each other and went to take a
drink. They came home, with the decision to drag us all together the
next day to a doctor, who could show us how stupid it was, how we
acted"
"And he did. He told me, the stress was all too much.
The carrying heavy was way too much. My blood pressure was way too
high. Everything was just too much"
"Yeah... and my blood
pressure was too little. He told me it wasn't good for the baby
cause most of the vitamin d, which both of the bodies needed, is
build up in the skin, but only with the help of sun. The fresh air
was missing. Everything was missing..."
"Yep... yep... and
so... afterwards we all four went to a bakery and bought some things
for a picnic and went to the park. And as you can see you and Andy
are perfectly fine today..."
"Yeah... but you only with a good
guardian angel"
Julia added
"Julia!"
Patty
warned
"Okay... what's going on here? Mom, what does she
mean?"
"Ooh... you know... it's...
nothing..."
"Nothing?"
Julia asked
"Shush!"
"No...
I wanna know!"
Prue protested
"Your mother... nearly due...
went up a ladder to paint your baby room..."
"Your father was
busy... and... Grams..."
"Oh no! No excuse now, Patty"
Patty
rolled her eyes
"Well anyway... the way she came down wasn't
that soft"
"You fell down the ladder with me?"
"Hey!
You're okay, aren't you?"
"Yeah... but that's just
because she spend the last month of the pregnancy in the hospital
under bed rest..."
"Yeah... and that was good like
this..."
"What's that supposed to mean again?"
"Well...
Julia visited me one day... and she went into labour... and let's
just say... Richard didn't make it to the hospital till Andy was
already for a few minutes born!"
Prue giggled. She couldn't
hold it back. She always thought Julia and her mom were the perfect
mothers and hearing form their 'mistakes' was just too
hilarious
"Hey! No laughing! That's not funny!"
Julia
protested
"Yeah... especially not... cause Julia had pain for
only an hour... and I was in the delivery room for 20 hours"
Prue
froze dead in her tracks
"No! Please don't tell me that's
true..."
"It is..."
"Shit!"
Both women looked at
Prue
"In that book stood... how long it needed for yourself to
be delivered, you need for your first child as well..."
Prue
told them, what caused Patty and Julia to giggle now
"Oh thank
you! Now I'm even more scared!"
"There's no need to. As
soon as you hold your little one in your arms for the first
time...
you forget everything again"
Julia said smiling
"Yeah...
till you lay the next time on that stretcher"
Patty told
her
"Can we... now please stop about that? Especially... when I
hear what problems you guys had... and you had a mom to show you
everything... I don't"
"Well... I think you have two mothers
here... so why wouldn't you have one?"
"Well... one's in
heaven and the other across the country"
"And with Andy's or
Leo's help both are here within a second"
Patty told Prue
"I
don't want to know that, do I?"
Julia asked
"It just feels
weird the first few times"
Prue said grinning and nodded a
bit
"Now... you two better go back down..."
Patty said and
hugged Julia tightly
"The party is still going... and two of the
main characters are still missing"
Patty said and placed a hand
on Prue's still flat stomach
"Blessed be"
"Blessed
be"
Prue answered. Patty just looked into her daughter's eyes,
till she completely was gone. Prue sighted
"I know"
Julia
said, reaching for one of her hands. Prue looked up at her
"I
miss her too"
Prue smiled slightly
"c'mon... let's
go..."
Prue nodded and got up
"Oh... before we go
downstairs... you should talk to Andy."
Prue nodded
"Yeah...
I know and will..."
Julia nodded and then placed an arm around
her waist to go downstairs. Andy looked up at the sound of someone on
the stairs. He couldn't believe what he saw. Prue looked like
exchanged. She was all shining and bright. Smiling and with
sparkling eyes. Prue and Julia walked up to him and Andy just looked
at Julia like thank you and she nodded, while Prue went even closer
to him, went on her toes and kissed him pretty passionately. Her
tongue burning like fire in his mouth. Andy was caught by surprise
but after a few seconds gave into the kiss and returned it
"Hey,
hey, hey! Our niece or nephew is watching... so could do that a bit
less gross?"
Paige asked. Prue pulled away a few seconds later
and smiled at Andy
"I love you"
Prue told him, looking
into his eyes
"I love you too"
