A month and a half had finally passed since the mating right, and to the clans delight, the females were actually pregnant. It's a wonderful thing indeed to have a sense of smell that can check that. The pregnancy for each would only last ten months, instead of the usual sixteen, which was sooner then the clan expected. Though the news was a relief to Elisa, considering she was pregnant as well, and she didn't want to stat pregnant for that long of a time. Roe and Lex seemed to be the most excited at the prospect of eggs and hatchlings, though Lex was a little disappointed at not becoming a father himself.

The others felt bad for him and Brooklyn, though they supported their relationship completely. Roe was the one who seemed to be holding the most guilt for the whole thing, thinking it was completely unfair for the duo to not be able to have kids. Magic could only go so far, and it never went against the natural order of things. The sentinel mother rarely left the rookery in the past two and a half weeks, there were reasons of course, well two to be specific. The first reason was because the rookery had to be perfect for when the eggs came. He had eight and a half months to go, but he was going to be obsessively changing and rearranging the rookery to the point where everyone was going to go insane from it. The second reason was that he was completely and utterly guilt ridden for both Brooklyn and Lex, for not being able to have hatchlings. Everyone in the clan, aside from Hudson, Bronx and Demona, were going to have an egg. Hell, even Talon and Maggie were going to have hatchlings. When Talon and his clan had been introduced to Roe, the sentinel mother had automatically included them as part of the clan, because of his relation to Elisa. Along with it came the chance to have children. Roe pouted as he dusted an imaginarily dirty spot, unaware that he was hurting Lex with his distance.

Lex mean while didn't know what to do, in the two years that Roe had been there, he'd never avoided him. It took a matter of seconds for the young webbed gargoyle to get into an angry huff before storming off to the rookery. As soon as Lex had entered, Roe gave a startled squeak and tried to curl into the corner he was backed into. Lex immediately went up to him with a glare.

"Why are you ignoring me?" Lex growled out, a small pout going to his lips, and his arms crossed.

"I'm not..." Roe started only to be cut off.

"Don't you dare," Lex snapped and Roe looked down, slightly ashamed.

"I feel bad you don't have an egg. I tried finding an extra female, so you could have had the chance to be a daddy, but I messed up," Roe said, tears coming to his moss green eyes. Out of all of Roe's friends, Lex was the only one he really saw as family. The only one who seemed to try with him. Roe was still looking down, so he didn't see Lex's shocked look, the dark yellow gargoyle recovered quickly.

"Roe, you don't have to worry about that," Lex said with a smile. Roe sniffed and looked up.

"Why?" Roe replied, shifting from foot to foot while fiddling with the duster in his hands.

"Because, there is a clan on Avalon, Angela's former clan. They're this clans eggs, from before being frozen in stone. Brooklyn, Broadway and I were too young to mate at the time, but we did have them. Angela said there were two extra females in the clan, that had become mates. So, Brook and I can have kids," Lex said, smile getting bigger. Roe's eyes widened comically.

"Really?" Roe asked, hope in his voice.

"Yes," Lex replied. Roe gave Lex a watery smile and hugged his best friend tightly while letting loose a small whoop of joy. Lex hugged back happily, glad to have his best friend back. Unknown to both of them, they were being watched by their over protective mates. Both Brooklyn and Owen had been looking for their younger mates, both for different reasons. Brooklyn and Lexington had patrol duty that night, and Owen wanted to discuss Roe's pregnancy. As both watched, Owen began to get jealous at Roe's and Lex's closeness.

The trickster didn't understand why he was so jealous as he had never been bothered with jealous before. Maybe it was because of the selfishness in Puck that didn't want to share Roe with anybody. The young half gargoyle seemed to be very cuddly with the majority of the clan, some gargoyle pack connection or something, but never with Owen himself. Roe seemed nervous to bet that psychical with Owen, almost as if he didn't know how to act around the trickster. The trickster frowned in slight dislike, while he cleared his throat loudly. Both younger gargoyles turned towards the door and saw there mates. Both smiled warmly at the both of them. Brooklyn was the first to break the silence.

"Lex, we have patrol duty in five minutes, better hurry," Brooklyn said, a smile on his beak.

"Coming Brooklyn, see you later Roe," Lex said, hugging Roe more before hurrying off after Brooklyn.

"Bye Lexie, be careful you to," Roe said with a wave.

"You know we will," Brooklyn called over his shoulder as both gargoyles left. Roe then turned to Owen with a loving soft smile.

"Do you need something Owen?" Roe said, his boyish voice softened into a girlish tone.

"Yes, yes I do," Owen replied rather calmly, walking into the rookery rather calmly. Roe's head tilted.

"Ja?" Roe asked softly.

"It's about your pregnancy. I want to know what to expect," Owen said.

"Same as any gargoyle pregnancy, though I don have a slight concern myself." Roe replied soothingly. Owen's eyes widened slightly.

"And that would be?" Owen said voice rather calm. But, a seedling of worry began to grow in his heart rather quickly. Roe worried his bottom lip in a rather adorable manner before saying anything else.

"I'm a tad bit worried about the thickness of our eggs shell," Roe said, nervously twisting his fingers. Owen's face relaxed almost instantly and he went to his smaller lover to envelope him in warm in brace. Roe blushed heavily, but leaned into the touch. The younger half fey never thought that Owen would be affectionate with him.

"It'll be all right Roe, I promise. The egg will be fine," Owen assured him affectionately. Roe gave him a brilliant smile. Little did they know, that their pregnancy situation would be a little more difficult then that.
