Jaycie's face broke out in a massive smile and she stood up from Anne's children and raced over to the door. "Jenna," she said, her eyes twinkling at the sight of her little sister. "Here, let me take that," Jaycie said and took the load out of her sister's arms, carrying it into the kitchen. Their mother came up and greeted her and swept her off to the couch, and Jay smiled, setting up the fondue for later.

The sound of unhappiness reached her ears and Jaycie poked her head out of the kitchen to see Lily being ushered down the hall by Damien, closely followed by Anne and then slightly after her, Caelum. Something about strawberries floated to her sensitive ears and Jay looked at the ripe red fruit in her hand, then back to the hallway. It didn't take her long to go down the hallway and peg a strawberry at the cute Lily's head, a playful grin on her face before she disappeared back to the bowl of red, delicious fruit and piled a few onto a plate.

She glided back into the room and hovered for a moment in the doorway, watching Caelum's antiques with the little girl. Something about his gentleness with her made a blush creep softly into her cheeks as suddenly, the very recent memory of how gently his lips had embraced hers forced it's way into her thoughts. Banishing those, Jay walked forwards and grinned. "Did somebody say strawberries?"

Lily was smiling as Cae was holding her. She had just forgot that her daddy was mad at her. Because she was throwing a fit. But that was because she didn't get a nap since her mommy was dressing her and making her cute. But Cae came over and picked her up and she was happy. Everything was going to be fine now. And it was because Cae just noticed that she was there.

She then looked over and seen that Jay had strawberries. This caused Lily to grin. “ Me. I did!”

Jaycie smiled and walked forwards. "I hope Caelum's being the perfect gentleman to you," she teased lightly, her eyes making contact with Cae's for a brief second before she focused on little Lily. Jay's words sounded more directed to Cae than to Lily, but she doubted the girl would pick up on the amount of subtlety laced through her voice.

She smiled brightly. "Come on. Be a good girl, and we can go back to the others and you can have your strawberries," Jay told her, showing her the bowl of ripe red fruits. "My sister even brought some chocolate to melt and dip them in. Isn't that cool?"

Lily was grinning as she was looking at Cae. “ Yes he is being perfect. He is the one who came over and got me out of trouble.” She was still grinning cause she was with Cae. And maybe the party wasn't going to be so bad.

She was still grinning cause Jaycie was going to give her a bowl of strawberries. But she had to be good first. And then she was shown the fruit and knew that it was true. Lily then heard her favorite word, chocolate. “ Chocolate!!” Lily then looked at Cae again. “ Can I have some chocolate this time?”
