The Parabatai Child

Chapter 3

      Emma never seen Jem's and Tessa's house, it was very cozy. It kind of reminded Emma of her house before the Dark war. It had a big fire place that was surrounded by a rocking chair, three-seated couch, and arm chair with an end table. It had a stack of books on it since Tessa had a great love for reading. The thought of Ty poped into her head, how much he loves reading.
"Guest rooms are upstairs to the left." Tessa said. Emma sighed and dragged her bags upstairs into what would be her room for Razil knows how long. Emma flopped on the bed and put her hand on her stomach as a tear rolled down her cheek. She had no idea when she would see Julian again, she had been seeing Julian everyday for five years. Emma looked out of the window and had a sudden urge to climb onto the roof below, and so she did. She looked at the sky wich was pitch black even though the sun was going to rise in about an hour. She saw someone, no, two people walking to the house. One of them was Jem (whom she recognized right away) and the other one, was Kit. "What the hell is Kit doing here?" Emma said to herself. She quickly went inside before they noticecd her on the roof. She heard Jem call her name, which ment she had to go downstairs at her own will before Jem dragged her downstairs. So she went and stared at Kit.
"Jem, can you leave us alone? I promise to not break Kit's arm again." Emma was in charge of Kit's hand-to-hand combat training. Well one day, Emma was "too hard" with Kit and broke his arm while she pined him down. Jem got Tessa out of the kitchen and they went outside to the back of the house, probably swing on the swinging chair and share stories. Emma turned and gave Kit a look that could break dimonds, which gave him the signal to talk.
"Why did you leave?" Kit asked.
"Because I needed to."
"Not a good enough reason Carstairs. Okay, Julian is falling apart and you aren't there to pick up the pieces."
"I had to get away Kit, Julian can take care of himself."
"Isin't there somethig in your oaths about leaving your Parabatai? Where thou goest, I will go or something like that?" Kit asked.
"Kit,"
"It's scary watching Julian shatter like that, you know that don't you?"
"Kit" Emma said in a warning tone "Don't start with me."
"Serously, Christina held him while he passed out from crying, that should of been you Emma!"
"Kit! I swear to you-"
"What will you do? Break my arm again?"
"No I will feed you to the ducks in the pound out back." Kit hated ducks with a passion, and Emma knew that. Jace Herondale didn't like them eaither. Then Emma saw a person standing behind Kit, dressed in clothes that were outdated by about 140 years. But she could see through the person with waves of black hair. I would think twice about threating us Herondale's with ducks. Said the figure. "Tessa! Jem!" Emma screamed. Kit turned around and acted as surprised as Emma. Jem and Tessa apeared in the living room and gasped Will.
Hello Jem, Tessa. Jem, did you hear this Carstairs girl with Kit? Quite feisty, I like her. Emma just looked at Jem and raised an eyebrow. She didn't think seeing ghosts was a side effect of pregnancy. The ghost looked at her and held out a hand. Hello Carstairs girl, My name is Will Herondale. Emma stuck out her hand without thinking. Ghosts can't touch her, she knew this. "Emma Carstairs." She replied.
Well then Emma, good luck with the teenager years, My son James was difficult during those dreadful years. "Oh James was not that bad Will, stop telling the poor girl to watch out for her teen years. Besides, Lucie was the one who didn't really think things through."
Oh dear Tessa, I wasn't talking about her own years. I was talking parent to parent. Anyways, I am going to head out, nice to meet you Emma Carstairs. And with that, the ghost, Will, was gone. Kit looked at Emma confused about what Will said. Tessa and Jem headed back outside without a second thought.
"Emma," said Kit. "What did he mean when he said 'parent to parent'?"
"Serously Kit, put two and two together."
"Is that why you left, does the Clave punish teen moms?"
"No, they would punish me because of who the dad is. They would punish both of us actually."
"Why? I know that parabatai love is forbidden but Julian-" Kit's eyes got as big as saucers.
"Yes what you think happend between Julian and me happend, which is why you can never breath a word of this to anyone. Now you should get back to LA." And with that, Emma went upstairs and watched the sun rise from her window as Tessa portaled Kit back.
