A smirk played on her lips while she poured them both a drink. Did it really matter what it was? Most times it didn’t. Besides, when had Lillian ever served her anything she hadn’t liked. “You’re favorite.” She paused. “Expensive.” She teased holding out the glass.

“Do you want champagne so you don’t throw the book at Margery during book club again, darling?” She called from the sitting room. They couldn’t have a mishap like that happen again. She’d hardly missed the girls head. 

Lillian was excited to be back at camp as a counselor this year. She’d already been there about a week to get the camp ready for everyone. She knew Rebekah would be a handful the moment she’d met her. Of course, she never shied away from a challenge. “They are surprisingly comfortable when compared to sleeping on the ground.” She smiled. “Trust me I get it, I have the same mattress.” Once campers were settled though and there were extra they did normally add another mattress on their beds. “I’m hoping we’ll be so busy that by the time lights out hits you’ll pass right out.”

                  She was already mad that this girl was so rude as to take her bunk when it clearly had her stuff on it but when she threw her things? Especially when she heard glass break. Lillian snapped, she was already in a bad mood because she didn’t want to be at this stupid camp. She didn’t do drama, but if drama was what this girl wanted she’d give it to her. Lillian picked up one of the smaller bags that looked like it might have had makeup in it and threw it against the wall. “Hope nothing broke.” She snapped. “Don’t fucking touch my stuff.” She spat out grabbing her other bag and moving to another bed. 

                  A sigh slid past her lips, this was the last place she wanted to be but she’d already made a few friends during registration. She’d even claimed her bunk in her cabin. As per usual James was already off flirting with all the girls; not that she really cared but it was annoying when she got the backlash of him hitting and quitting most of the girls at camp. She headed back to the cabin to unpack a few of her things after talking with a few other girls and guys. When she walked in and saw someone had moved she looked at the blonde on her bunk. “What the fuck? That’s my bunk, I put my stuff there.” This one was already a bitch.

                   “James is my brother.” She let her know. “I’m not in a relationship or anything. I just hadn’t known his likes for men is all. I, of course, have no problem with it I just didn’t know.” West Hollywood? She had no idea. “Perhaps next time I can just pay you to show me how to do this? I’d like to know. I’m good with men, but men are stupid.”

                   Lillian looked over at her not sure if she was hearing right. She knew James was a bit wild be was he sleeping with other men? It didn’t bother her, obviously given with whom she was in the car with, but it was shocking the way he spoke about women. “James Beck?” It was a question. “If so that is rather shocking, though it is nice knowing you and he haven’t,” she trailed off. “How do you even go up to other girls? I never know who is like me and who isn’t.”

                    She was quiet while trying to decipher if this was all a game; she wasn’t much into games. “I am,” she started softly. “I’ve only been here a few months officially. Though I’ve traveled here many times.” She took a breath, shifting a bit. “Is this odd? I’ve never done this and I don’t know why James seems to love it.” All she was, was nervous. “It’s not you, you’re lovely, and if I believed you wanted to do this perhaps I wouldn’t feel like rubbish.” Was she really going to do this and be like him? He was the shame of the family. 

                 A soft smile pulled at her lips as she began to drive back to her small apartment. She could have stayed in the mansion with her family but she wanted to be closer to the city. “It’s lovely to meet you. I’m Lillian.” A part of her felt like what she was about to do was wrong. Yet she hadn’t really done what she was about to do with a woman. She didn’t even really know where to go to find others who were like her.

                       It was the last thing she’d planned to do but she’d heard about it and thought, what the hell? As she pulled up her eyes fell on a blonde that rather intrigued her. A soft hum slid past her lips. “A bloody hell of a lot.” She laughed softly. “What’s the word? Dreamland is it?” She was rather confused if she was honest. She’d never done this and the only reason she knew about it was that James bragged about it

                    It made her happy to see Rebekah so happy about this baby. Of course, she was excited as well but Rebekah had spent a thousand years knowing she could never be a mum. That was why Lillian had been so excited to tell her, she knew it would be a great birthday present. “They will be as perfect as you.”

                      Lillian’s voice was soft as she began to speak. “I got the call from the doctor this morning. I’d snuck to see him last week when you were out.” She had felt a bit guilty hiding it from her but she had wanted it to be a surprise. She took a bite of the meal she’d had made, this must have been why her dresses had been a bit tight lately. “I do hope it’s healthy, that’s all I want, girl or boy I don’t care.”

                     It was just too much to take in. She couldn’t feel happier and all she wanted now was to give Rebekah all the kids she wanted. “I can’t wait to be a mum with you. I can’t wait to add to our family.” There were so many emotions going through her mind at that moment. “Let’s eat, I’m starved.” She’d been extra hungry lately and now she knew why. She had another little person she was creating in her own body. “We can start planning the baby's room.”

                    To see the wash of emotions cover her face meant more to her than hearing the news herself. Despite the pressure by her mother to start a family right away she’d finish school and traveled a bit before they really started trying. “Really, we’re gonna have a baby.” The words slid past her lips and tears filled her eyes. This was the one thing Lillian had always wanted to give Rebekah, the one thing that was taken from her. This was still just the start of their eternity together. 

                    She hummed softly as she pressed a kiss to her darlings lips. “Anything for you,” she spoke softly as she pulled away taking her hand. “I made dinner, with a special glass of wine.” She smirked, she knew Rebekah didn’t really eat but it was nice to have dinner with her. “I have some news, the best gift of the day.” She picked up the little gift box to give Rebekah. Inside it had a simple note telling her that they were getting the child they longed for.

                 Lillian was so excited to see Rebekah again after she’d all but kicked her out to go on a nice spa day for her birthday. This gave her time to set up their own little party for the evening. She’d even set Peter away for the week so they would have the whole week alone. When Rebekah came in she all but jumped into her arms. She’d gotten a call for the doctor and couldn’t wait to tell her that they were having a baby.

                 “Always?” She questioned with a wicked grin. “Well, I hate to tell you this but someone is trying to keep my dress on and I just don’t feel safe in it.” She tried to remain serious but she fell into a fit of giggles.
