44 Blueberry Hill, Saturday

Phoebe was tired of being cooped up and feeling a little restless. She couldn't seem to get comfortable and her emotions and hormones were slightly frayed.

Ok, more than slightly.

After some wheedling, begging and threatening, the boys had helped Phoebe get settled on the front porch swing.

She was, of course, wearing a jacket and there was a blanket nearby in case she got chilled. There was also a pitcher of Lavender Jasmine tea on the table next to her as well as her laptop and a selection of trashy novels.

"I'm glad you had a good time." She smiled. "Want some tea?"

"I'd love some," Isabel smiled. "It'll be nice to relax for a bit. How are you feeling? You look wonderful."

She grinned. "Thanks, Isabel. A bit tired lately but doing well." She handed Isabel a cup of tea.

"I bet you're getting excited," she replied as she took the tea. "I know the guys are. Goofily so."

"They're going to be great dads."

"Yeah, they will. If they survive you going into labor," Isabel laughed. "I'm predicting flailing on an epic scale."

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
She giggled. "And fainting."

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
"And threatening. You know there's going to be threatening," she added, with a giggle of her own.

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Phoebe nodded, trying to stop giggling. "Threatening us if we tell they fainted... or threatening the doctor?"

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Probably both. The doctor at first. Us after the fact. I'll have to make sure my camera's hidden in a safe place."

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
She lost herself in giggles.

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Isabel waited until Phoebe had recovered from the giggles. "I'm really happy for you guys." Ignore the touch of wistfulness in her voice.

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Phoebe of course didn't miss that wistfulness.

"Thank you, Isabel. That means a lot." She gave her a serious look. "How are you?"

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm fine," she replied, forcing a smile. "Life is good."

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Phoebe let out a sigh that may have been a little frustrated.

"Why do people still insist on trying to not answer the question or lie to me," she grumbled. "Isabel, I'm an empath, remember. And, I'm a damn strong one now." Her voice was gentling. "Fine is the word, but the smile doesn't quite cover it."

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Which might have been the reason Isabel had been half-heartedly avoiding Phoebe. "I'm just thinking a lot," she admitted. "Deep thoughts."

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-26 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
She raised an eyebrow at Isabel.

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Isabel shrugged. She hadn't figured it out in her own head. She doubted she could explain it.

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Isabel, we're friends, correct?"

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
"Saying no isn't going to stop you from saying what you want to say is it?" she asked with a wry smile.

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
"If you truly believe that, then yes, it will." She smiled faintly. "But I don't think you'd mean it if you said it."

[identity profile] desertaliengirl.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't," Isabel admitted. "Tell me what you think. Everyone else has."

[identity profile] sleepswthdemons.livejournal.com 2008-10-27 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
Phoebe shook her head. "I'm not everybody else," she reminded her. "I'm me. I've gone to Hell and back more than once. I've watched my soulmate be taken over by the Source of all Evil and be destroyed twice. I lost the other man I loved for six years due to universes being weird... and I've tried to kill myself."

She looked at Isabel. "I believe you would agree with me that I've had my share of pain and trauma... and some of the choices I made were because I felt that they were the right decision at the time." She reached for her hand. "I'm not going to tell you what to do or how to feel... but I am going to ask you to talk to me. You're sad. I can feel it and I can see it."

Isabel squeezed her hand. "I thought I had it all figured out,. Things made sense. I'd move to Boston, marry Jesse, and live my life. But now that I'm here. I'm just...I don't know, thinking too much. And things are getting confused."
