Rik:
Maes chuckled and said, "Well right this way to the throne room." He led us to the nursery which was painted purple and Janice picked up the little guy showing him to us. "This is little Nickie."

Diana:
I couldn't help but chuckle and said, "I won't mind. Elias?"

Leon:
"I had to make a few calls. You want the company don't you?"

Leon:
"And that would be because?" I asked deadpan.

Diana:
As he left, I said, "He won't be upset we kicked him out, would he?"

Rik:
Janice smiled and said, "Look he's clutching to you. He likes you."

Leon:
"And who might that friend be?"

Diana:
"Sooooo....I'm gonna hear you sing today?"

Janice:
"Do you have kids Cordelia?"

Leon:
"Maybe it's because I've found something in her none of the others had." I said dead serious.

Diana:
"I want to ... You heard me sing for you before." I said kissing him softly.

Rik:
"And they all turned out amazing boys." Janice smiled and said, "Maybe you should teach me then. Maes and I have absolutely no idea what we're doing. And Rikky there is no help."
"Hey!"

Leon:
"Like how real she is and not a fake."

Diana:
"You know I'd love it anyway...It makes me heart beat so hard."

Rik:
"Hey! I want Miss Cordelia for me!"

Diana:
"I like your voice when you talk. And I can imagine you singing." I said closing my eyes, "yup. I like it."

Rik:
"Uh...I...uh...sure." I had never held a baby in my life and that somewhat worried me.

Leon:
"She's super nice, very caring, very energetic and fun. She turned my life upside down. In a good way."

Diana:
"I want to, yeah. I still haven't figured out what yet though."

Leon:
I carried her off me and back onto the bed. She was not Ryan. "And a weakness I'm willing to accept."

Rik:
I think for a few seconds there I had my breath held. i was scared I'd drop him. He was even tinier in my arms than he was in his crib and that was terrifying me. I slowly started to relax and smile.
"He's...tiny."

Rik:
"And...soft..." I didn't realize it back then but later Maes would tell me that my voice almost broke saying it.

Leon:
I didn't say anything looking over Denise's shoulder for a few seconds before asking, "What now?"

Diana:
"I'm sure you'll inspire me somehow." I said winking.

Rik:
'Yeah...I think so." I said giving him back to Maes who placed him back gently before Janice gave him a quick kiss and led us outside saying, "Who's ready for grill?"

Diana:
"You know? I just realized something. This'll be our first time here since we went to Brazil and had the wedding."

Leon:
I sat down with legs crossed saying, "Play nice, kids."

Leon:
I got up sitting by Ryan's side running my hand through her hair. I was worried she was hurt in the process. "Do you think she'll be back?"

Diana:
"Yeah but I left almost immediately to buy Christmas presents and to go to Daddy's place. And we didn't stay the night."

Rik:
I gave her a soft kiss on the cheek when Janice and Maes were getting the griller up and running and whispered, "What do you think of them?"

Rik:
"They can be a bit lovey dovey at times, but in general are fun to be around."

Leon:
"Hey..."I whispered kissing her hand and asking Denise mentally, "I was talking about Kit or Kat or whatever her name is. Can she come back?"

Diana:
"I guess. We kinda made more memories here than elsewhere. I didn't even realize before I thought of here as home."

Leon:
"No. What are you doing?"

Diana:
'Oh yeah...The academy...I kinda miss it there...You know...our friends."

Rik:
"Yeah. You should've seen Maes when he was planning to propose. All freaking out and nervous."

Rik:
"Yeah it is. I was a train wreck when i pro... It was funnier when i was watching though."

Diana:
Chuckling, i kissed him before saying, "I don't care if i have you... Shouldn't we get dressed?"

Leon:
"She's my wife!"
