Through The Madness

Hectic Morning

Her ears twitch and rotate like a satellite. Freddie didn't like all the noise not one little bit! She groans and shakes Regina whose face was pressed into her chest and the werewolf was drooling heavily. This noise was giving her a headache from hell and her ears would stop moving.

"Regina, wake up!" Freddie whines, ''I'm hearing scary noises and I'm too scared to investigate on my own!'' she pouts shaking her chest to knock Regina off.

Regina groans and whines before waking up her soft blue eyes look around sleepily before the loudness hits her and she clings to Freddie and howls. Freddie smacks her with the pillow, "I don't need you to add on to the noise." 

Freddie puts her feet on the cool black wooded floorijy. She shivers and wraps the black around her making Regina whine and tug on it, 

"You got fur I don't." Freddie pouts snuggling further into the blanket. Regina huffs and allows it.

The women waddle down the hall pressed tight against each other like sardines. Freddie gripped the flashlight in her hands and Regina holds onto Freddie's elbow scared,

"It sounds like Joan." Regina whispers, "And Brianna?" 

"Do you think they're having sex?" Freddie asks,

"Brianna and sex?" Regina snorts, "I don't even think she knows where to find the hole." 

Freddie shoves her, "That was rude." 

Regina looks away, "Sorry, Freddie." 

Freddie pats her on the head, "Good job."

Regina smiles some before a cabinet door was slammed shut scaring Regina making her bump into Freddie who stumbles back.

They see Joan her nightgown bunched up as she's leaning down the crib cooing and petting it.

"What's going on?" Freddie asks rubbing her eyes sleepily she shines her light over as Joan gestures for her to do so.

"Yeah." Regina whines, "It's-" the grandfather clock chimes letting them know it's 3AM, "It's 3 in the morning! Why are you guys both up and banging doors? You scared the shit out of Freddie." 

Freddie kicks her in the shin, "I was not scared!"

"Yes you were!" Regina yells grinning like the little shit she is, "You needed your big bad werewolf girlfriend to rescue you from the big bad sounds." 

Freddie flips her off and goes back to helping Joan and Brianna, 

"My baby is hatching." Joan coos softly stroking the top of the egg where cracks were appearing, "I've waited so long for this."

Freddie gasps and races over to it. She had to get a better look. Regina leans against her cooing over the little hatchling. Joan asks Brianna to film as more and more of the egg starts chipping off.

Just as the sun was starting to rise the egg was officially chipped all the way off. A little humanoid snake creature was wrapped in a green sac. 

Joan carefully removes the baby from it making a mess all over the hardwood. A small gurgle cry fills the room and the little snake baby takes their first breaths.

"A got a tail!" Regina coos touching it.

Joan giggles cleaning off her baby, "The little one will shed it completely by a year. We all do… My kind anyway."

"I'm the godmother!" Freddie proclaims cooing over the little one.

The girls sleep in while Joan tends to her little one who is a little boy she named Robert, Brianna was the one to give her the name suggestion. And Brianna was the only one to stay up with her. 

"Hey." Joan whispers softly, "Why are you doing this?"

"Doing what?" Brianna asks fixing Robert's sleeper onto him.

"Being so nice and kind to me and my baby? Why haven't you sliced my head off and ran off with Robert into the middle of the night and sold him for his weight in gold?"

Brianna looks at her tiredly. She longs for sleep, "Joan.."

Joan looks up her eyes hidden behind her dark tinted glasses, "Brianna?" 

Brianna leaves Robert on his changing table. She leans down cupping Joan's cheek and kisses her, "That's why." 

Joan didn't answer and an awkward silence takes over. Joan hugs her tight, "Brianna-"

Brianna shakes, "I love you so much."

Joan says "I love you too", she decides not to inform her that Freddie spoiled her secret.

Joan is still busling around the home with little Robert strapped to her chest lazily breaksfeeding. His tail flickers some.

Brianna is sipping her coffee watching the mother and son as she sits. She stayed awake with them since Robert's hatching.

"Hey." Freddie yawns her long ebony hair sticks out like she's bee shocked.

Brianna covers Robert's eyes, "Fred you're wearing a tank top." 

Freddie looks down at her bare breast that decided to make a guest apperence and leave her tank top, she wonders why Regina didnt say anything.

Joan puts plates off food down on the table, "Eat up. Eat up. The storm passed over sometime after Robert's hatching." 

"Awesome we can get off the tiny island then." Freddie chirps grabbing her fork.

"Guys… remember Pauline?" Brianna asks, setting her glass down.

"Shit! Yeah! Where did she go?" Freddie exclaims.

Regina steps into the kitchen her blond hair a giant frizzy tangled mess on her head almost looking like a halo,  "She refused to get off the damn boat and jumped back into the water. You guys were too busy panicking over something." she scratched at her groin, "Is that eggs?" 

The women eat and prepare to go back to their homes. Brianna seemed to be dragging her feet a lot seemingly not wanting to leave.

"Come on." Freddie says to Brianna as the little elf is lifted up and placed into the spare boat by Regina, "It's time to go." 

Brianna hems and haws looking between her friends and Joan and Robert who's staying on the island.

"Brianna?" Regina huffs, "You're not going to ditch us for another woman are you?" 

Brianna stands at the dock looking between her childhood best friends and the woman she loves.

Does Brianna remain on the island or does she go with her friends?
