Remieverse - Quiet Night

[another-phace.livejournal.com]

Remie hummed a soft, merry Cajun tune as she carefully wiped down every glass, tap, and countertop at the bar, cleaning up while the buisness was quite. As usual a few familes were inside, enjoying a relaxing meal, and in the corner a couple men were anxiously watching the football game on a television, sharing nachos and beer and playfully warning eachother occassionally about getting drunk when the owner's wife was around.

Remie smiled to herself as a hand fell to her budding stomach, the smooth, growing lump warm and seeming to emmit its own energy. She smiled fondly, then sighed happily and sat with a virgin margurita to take the weight off her feet for a moment.

"Not dat I know'a. But dey useta losin' track 'o me. It be my fren's dat gonna be tearin' up de country." He chuckled slightly at the thought, suspecting that Snakes would figure out what had happened.

Then he frowned. "I seem t' 'member dis lil' fille dere las' night?"

"We left her wit' Marie, who took care a' her right. She'll be stayin' wit us too," she said soothingly.

[random_xtras]

"Yeah, y' say dat." He blinked, then stifled a yawn. "Pardon me."
