**** Mal's POV ******

I woke up today feeling horrible. Lulu got sick in the night and wouldn't stop crying. Ben offered to get her but I was her mother and needed to be there for her. But in the end I still got her cold.

"Mal are you okay." Ben asked. "No, Lulu and I are both sick so I don't think we are goig to be getting out of the room today much." I stiffled. Just then Lulu started crying. "I got her." Ben cut in befor I could even get out of bed.

He handed her to me and it looked like she had a fever. "Ben, you have to go to work. Pass me the diaper bag and don't worry we will be fine in here." I said reasurringly. He seemed hesitant but I shook it off and eventually got Lulu to calm down.

"Aunt Evie will be up here soon to keep me occupied while Daddy takes you to the Doctor's office." I sniffled. As if on cue Evie walked through the door carrying everything you would ever need when you are sick.

"Lulu are you sick too. Mal are you sure you don't want me to stay all day?" she asked. "No, just until Ben gets back with her." I yawned. "Here I made soup. You eat this while I drop off Lucille to her dad." Evie scopped Lulu out of my arms and took the diaper bag with her to Ben's office.

I turned on the TV and watched a movie while I ate this soup Evie made.

"Mal, that is it I am staying until Ben is off of work. You can not take care of a sick baby and yourself at the same time. It just isn't possible." Evie gushed. "Fine, but if you get sick not my fault." I laughed.

Evie and I sat there and talked and talked until Ben came back with Lucille. "Here just a cold nothing else the doctor said." Ben recapped.

Evie took the now sleeping Lucille Evelyn Beast and placed her in the bassinet in the corner. "I will be back in less than 3 hours to take care of you okay?" Ben wisphered in my ear kissing me on his way out.

"You have the best soon to be husband in the world." Evie complained. "Doug is the best boyfriend to you and you know that." I laughed.

"That is the reason I said soon to be husband." Evie laughed. "I can't wait untill you guys have kids. Lulu is going to be so lonly the first couple years of her life." I complained. "Hey, I promise as soon as I get married. I will have kids after." Evie promised.

"But unil then, I have a Niece that I can spoil beyond her mothers limits." Evie did her evil laugh. "She is going to get spoiled enough. She is a princess you know." I added.

"Mal can your kids turn into dragons?" Evie asked. "I don't know. Its like a gene you have to inherit it." Mal explained. "Well, if Lucille is a dragon, she will be the cutes little dragon." Evie complimented. "Thanks"

We talked and talked until we could talk no more. Evie let me get some sleep while she watched Lucille.

But when I woke up Evie was gone and Ben was holding Lulu. "You look so much better than you did this morning Mal. You need more sleep. Let me get up with Lulu in the night more, okay?" Ben pleaded.

"Fine, but you have to let me sleep more right now then."
