In the middle of the dark, I found my light.

Chapter 28:hormone train, right on schedule.

Three weeks went by, and the train wreck known as HORMONES arrivedat the castle. This had been the one thing Satan had warned alastor about, he remembered when Lilith was pregnant with Charlie, her emotions where a roller coaster.

One day while alastor was sitting on there bed reading the news paper, Charlie came in VERY tired. she slugged down next to him with her crown still on her head.

"want me to take your crown dear?" Alastor asked. Charlie grumbled yes and he took it off her head and put it on the cushion next to the door. he sat down next to her again and looked sadly at her. "what's wrong dear?" Alastor asked. Charlie just growled. "oh I don't know al, maybe because I've had to deal with shit holes all day, and had to deal with people riding on my back all day?!?" she yelled. Alastor just looked at her in shock. she had never yelled at him before.

Charlie just realized what she had done and tears pricked at her eyes. "oh al I'm so sorry! these damned hormones!" Alastor just pulled her into a hug and pet her hair. "shh its ok, I understand. I know its hard, carrying three demons. I'll always be here Charlie." Charlie snuggled into his chest and fell asleep. Alastor smiled and waved his finger over her and she was changed into a nightgown.

Alastor did it for himself as well (T shirt and some PJ shorts.) and tucked Charlie in. he checked the alarm clock. 9:00 PM. "wow..." alastor said to himself, got under the covers and snuggled into his wife's side, who at his contact, turned around and pulled him into a hug while sleeping. He smiled and rested his head on the top of her head, and fell asleep.

Charlie woke up round 5 am when the morning sickness kicked in.She covered her mouth with her hand and used her hand to push herself away from alastor and ran into the bathroom to puke. When she did this she woke up Alastor, who reached for his monocle since he never slept with it on. He put it on and looked over and saw the bathroom door open. "oh crap.." alastor ran in and saw Charlie bent over the toilet.

"Oh Charlie..." he walked up behind her and pulled her hair into a ponytail so she wouldn't get it dirty. He kneeled down beside her and used his other hand to rub her back. She stopped and flushed the toilet and leaned into alastors side. "It's getting worse al..." she told him. he had an idea. "Charlie how about you take the day off today?" He asked her. She looked at him with a look of pure disbelief on her face.

"I cant al. I've got an entire world to run!" she reasoned with him. He looked at her and realized something. She had bags under her eyes, her ankles where swollen, her lips had fainted to gray, and after he ran his hand through his hair, he gasped. her hair was falling out!

"Charlie you need a break!" he told her. "i'll get your father, he'll understand, than we can spend the day at the hotel." he told her. "that sounds nice..." she admitted. Alastor nodded. "Can you dress yourself my dear?" He asked. Charlie gave out a small laugh. "I might be not well sweetheart, but I can dress myself. You get dressed and go talk to dad." Charlie instructed Alastor nodded and went to go get dressed. Charlie stood and went to go get dressed.

Alastor came back and gave her a nod. "he approves, now my dear, lets go to the hotel shall we?" He took his hand in hers, and the two began there day off in a good while.
