Chapter 5: Tell Me:
Marni had watched Destry fall asleep after she had given him quite a bit of medication.
Marni carefully stood up from her chair, making sure she didn't wake him.
His massive wings made her mesmorized. They were dark and beautiful.
-I wonder...-
Marni reached out her right hands that was once on her baby to gently run her fingers down the feathers. They were the softest thing she had ever touched.
When Destry attempted to roll over, still deep in sleep, Marni let go of his wings and down to his upper arm.
"Destry. You can't move. Otherwise you will rip the stitches," she informed him.
He groaned and fell back onto his back. "Can I sit up?"
His eyes were still closed, but Marni lifted the pillows up against the wall and helped him lean against them.
He opened his eyes to Marni.
He loved the way she held her stomach. Like she was thinking about it every time she touched it. Which was alot.
Marni opened her mouth to say something, but shut her mouth.
"Marni. Are you sure you are okay? Can't the baby go into trama or somthing?" He asked her and she just laughed.
"No. It's fine. It's not even a baby really. Just like a little frog,"
Destry gave her a confused look.
"It's got webbed hands and feet," she said.
Destry chuckled. She was so cute.
"Have you decided what to name it?" Destry asked and she looked away from her stomach and at him.
"I really like the name's Saffron or Jetta. That would be for a girl. But I'm still coming up for a boy's name," she admitted. She was the first person to tell about her ideas.
Marni looked away from him once again annd stared at her baby bump.
"You could always name him after your dad. But that's kind of unoriginal," Destry said.
He expected her to laugh or say something like 'my dad would love that'. But she didn't.
Instead she got up from her chair and walked across the room and faced away from him.
"I would never do that,"
Was Marni...crying?
Destry immediatly got out of bed and walked up behing her, so their bodiies were inches away.
"I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. Does he have a bad name?" Destry asked her.
She shook her head and sniffled.
Destry's heart ached. Why can't I ever keep my mouth shut?
"It's okay. I'm not very fond of my father either," he admitted.
"I'm sure your's isn't as bad as mine," Marni said and reached a hand up to wipe away some tears.
"My father only came back for my mother to rape her and make my family. No one has ever met him but her,"
Marni turned around and, being careful of his injury, hugged him.
Taken aback, he hugged her back, a little too hard. He felt the stitches hurting him, but he didn't care. As long as he had Marni in his arms.
Marni pulled her head out of his shouder and move her lips to his ears.
"Still not as bad,"
----------------------------------------------
Desrty flew himself home that night, after making sure Marni went to sleep. They had changed the bloody-messy sheets and put on new ones.
He never actually left the house untill he could hear her soft snoring.
"DESTRY!" Trixie squeeled as she ran into the living room to see Destry walk through the door.
"What is it?" Destry asked, holding his side.
"I found my mate today!!!" she cheered.
Destry looked up. "No way!"
Finding a mate was one of the most epic things that could happen, other than a wedding between mates.
"Yes! He's so hot!" she cheered.
"Guess what?" Destry asked her.
"What?"
He lifted up his shirt to show the bandage. "I saved my mate from a demon,"
Trixie gasped. "Are you okay?"
Destry nodded. "And do you know what's even cooler? She fixed me up!"
Trixie's white wings fluttered. "Yay! Do I know her?"
"Yep,"
"Is it that chick...Sergio's daughter? She had too may piercings, don't tell me its her!"
"No. It's Marni!" Destry said happily.
Trixie's smile faded to a frown. "Yay,"
"Oh yeah? I'm sure your mates a dick!" Destry yelled and started walking to the stairs.
"You're right. I'm sure he has a big dick. But that's besides the point. She's bad news, Destry,"
He stopped at the stairs to glare at her. "When you stay away from your mate, I'll stay away from mine,"
-------------------------------------------
-What a bitch.- Was all Destry could think about as he lay on his bed.
Anyway, he knew he had to find out more about Marni, maybe even tell her that he is her mate. Destry know she's related to a witch, but she wasn't even afraid for herself. Only for him.
But he acted the same though. The deep cut didn't even phase him. He was more worried about Marni.
He was up all night, thinking of names for the baby if it was a boy.
Marni wasn't a normal girl. She was unique. And she would want the baby to be named something unique...

What do you think she will name the baby? Boy or girl? Leave a name in the comment section before you read on! -Faylinn
