Ahkmenrah watched from above as Octavius and Jane went to there places. Feeling happy for the both of them that things were progressing so well, so fast. Sighing he looked down at the little flower in his hands. Like Octavius he himself had found someone that he had grown attached to; though unlike the Roman general he was not as nervous to talk to her. They had talked to one another before, and had become good friends, the pharaoh wanted to be much more than friends though. The girl he cared for was somewhat different from him, how he was calm, patient, and hard to anger. She on the other hand was not calm like him, neither was she patient, and getting her angry was very simple. How she was different that was what drew him to her.

The pharaoh looked around the 'Hall of Writers and Artist'. To make sure no one was there, fortunately no one was there, but he knew Jane or someone else would be there soon, he had to work fast. Running up to his love interests' area there laid an old looking wooden table, papers, and books scattered around it. Walking above the bar that kept visitors out he looked for a good place to place the flower. Finally he placed it where not many things were around it, so it was noticeable. As he made sure that it would be seen he ran off to his tomb.

Laura Ingles Wilder stormed into the hall enraged by Mark Twain. Not to long ago they had gotten into an argument that lasted a long time. Frustrated she ran into her area where her old wooden table stood with her books and papers. Walking back and forth as the others came in, soon almost passing the table something catches her eye. Turning around fully arms crossed against her chest. She walked over to it, a flower laid gently there; she held it in her hands. A small smile spread across her face.

"Why, what is it that you've got there?" Emily Dickinson asked from her area not to far away.

Turning to her friend Laura looked up from the flower. "It is a flower; I found it on my table."

"Is it from a man?" Emily asked teasingly.

The woman turned a bright red taking a book from her table. "Actually I have no idea who placed it here," Laura stated carefully putting the flower in the book. "So, I would not start pointing fingers at men all of a sudden." Closing the book she got into the position she had to be in for the day.

Dickinson laughed, "You never know."

Hanging up the phone, Larry laid on his small couch. He had gotten off the phone with Rebecca, who was crying the whole time they were talking. Tom Smart died last night; it pained him that he could not be there with her, but he had responsibility to take care of the museum. She would be coming back next Wednesday.

Opening his bedside dresser he took out a small box. Inside was an engagement wring for Rebecca. He was going to give it to her earlier, but so much had happened. Anyways Larry did not think Rebecca would want to get married right after her father had just died. As well he had to think about Nick. Erika getting married, finding out Erika was pregnant, and Larry and Rebecca getting together. So many changes for him, Larry also wanted to make sure Nick liked Rebecca. He seemed to, but Larry also thought his son was happy about the baby. His thoughts were interrupted by the phone's high pitched wringing.

"Hello, Larry it is Erika," his ex-wife said on the other line. She did not sound happy, that was not a good sign.

"Hey Erika…what is wrong?"

A sigh came, "It is about Nick, has he acted weird around you?"

Larry thought back, the only time he remembered him behaving weird was when he and Nick had that talk a while back. "Not really…well a while back, though we talked about it."

"You talked to him, about what?" Erika asked listening intensively.

"Well, see Nick…he you could say was feeling...Nick see told me that he thought you and Don didn't love him-," Larry was not able to finish.

On the other line Erika was breaking into tears. "H-h-he th-thinks we, we don't love…him!"

Larry could soon hear Don in the background asking what's wrong. Erika was so upset by this that she could not answer him. Larry kept trying to get Erika or Don to answer, but no one could her. Soon the phone was hung up.

Looking at the phone he put it down, he regretted telling Erika that especially since she was eight months pregnant and had lots of hormones going on. Larry had a very good feeling he was going to be seeing Erika, Don, and Nick very soon.

……

It was not to long until Larry did get a call to come over to Erika's house. He was now sitting on a couch with Nick, Don and Erika on the love seat. "Do we have to talk?" Nick asked.

"Yes we do," Don answered. "Now why would you think such a thing like your mother and I not loving you?"

Nick sat there truly not wanting to be there, but he knew if he did not tell them it was not going to get any better. "Because, you guys want a new baby, you aren't happy with just me."

Erika shook her head, "Nick we are happy with you! You have no idea how proud me, Don, and your father are proud of you!"

"You are?" Nick whispered.

"Of course we are," Don answered sitting next to the boy placing an arm around him.

Thinking about this and feeling better, but still he had one question. "Then why are you going to have a baby?"

It was quiet, "So they want to give you a brother or sister. So, you can have a friend 24 hours a day, seven days a week." Larry stated stopping the silence.

"Anyways having a brother like you will mean we get another you, bucko!" Don said.

"So…you know we love right Nick," Erika asked.

Nick's eyes began to water, just like his mother's. He ran to her embrace, "Yes…I'm so sorry." Leaving her he ran to Don hugging him. Larry smiled at this, that baby was going to a great family.

As Nick, Don, and Erika were hugging, Larry quietly left the apartment. He was so happy Nick was feeling better. Things could not get any better than that. It seemed as though things were going to get better from now on.
