In the midst of the miracle of new life found Holly's and Kyle's dorms, respectively, Helena felt herself in awe of nature, of science. She'd seen life repeat itself so many times, but this time it was different. The children were Holly's, and Holly was someone she was close too. The boys, Ashley and Cassel, were special.

Holly felt like she was get ready to fight a war. She was unsure of her self, questioning her sanity, and perspective. Helena was a ten year old who was rooming with her, who, had seen her children, and, it wasn't exactly common for that to happen with a 17 year old, to already have 3 children. Helena was very impressionable, witch made living normally some what difficult. If Holly didn't want to do her homework, Helena would question why she had to, If Holly wanted to stay out all hors of the night, Helena would argue that she should be able to do that as well. Helena wasn't a brat, not even close, she was just hard headed, and, as Holly had learned, wasn't very found of rules that excluded every other person but herself.
So, Holly had decided it was time. She was going to give Helena, The Talk. NOT the talk, talk, God no, Holly knew that Helena wasn't ready for that yet. And, nothing had been missing from her draw in the bathroom, so, Holly assumed Mother Nature wasn't planning on making it's unexpected, and unwelcome visit quite yet. Holly was contemplating out side of the door that was closed for about 10 minuets before she entered. "Helena, I need to talk to you.' she said, carefully adjusting her tone of voice. She was working on being a friend, and a Mother, giving Helena the good parts of what the childhood she wished she'd had, but all so the seriousness she wished she'd possessed as a child.

Helena looked up as Holly came in. "Uhm, alright," she replied, suddenly feeling nervous. What did Holly want to talk about?

Holly nodded, and walked over to Helena's bed where the child was sitting. She across from Helena, legs crossed. "I need to make sure your...informed." she began, her eyes not breaking their line of vision directly on Helena. "Helena, I know I'm not supposed to act like your Mother, or what ever, but, this is for your own good, understand?" she asked, nodding her head forward a bit, and raising her eyebrows. "You know it's.... Not common for 17 year olds to have 3 children, yes, but, Helena." Holly said, placing a gentle hand on Helena's knee. "I need you to ask me right now, anything on your mind, and questions, i need to make sure you get your answers from me, you'll need to learn a lot of, well, other things one your own, but, I want you to ask me what ever you want to know." she said, in a very Holly way of saying something.

The first question that came to mind was, Why did you do it? But she didn't want to ask that because it was rather personal. Helena understood that things just happened in the heat of the moment, and sometimes people get a little carried away. Instead, she asked, "What did you feel when you realized you were..pregnant?"

"Truthfully, I felt anger." Holly said, than added. "Not at Ash, and Cas, I felt mad at myself and Kyle." she said. "And...Kyle wasn't exactly the..... best at supporting it." she said than shook her head, stopping her self. "And.." Holly said, as she could hear Helena's thoughts. "I did it because when I was younger Helena, bad stuff happened to me, things that older men should never do to little girls, so, I wanted to find....a real connection. I wanted to see what love felt like, how it felt to be loved with out any force."

"Oh.." Helena said. She could understand where Holly was coming from, but part of her mused that she didn't need to engage in carnal relations with other people to understand what love was. However, this was just Helena's opinion and thinking; she'd never really been in love, and so couldn't argue Holly's statement. Truthfully, she thought that that part of Holly's and Kyle relationship had been rushed. Again, another opinion.
"Uhm..what was it like to..give birth?"

"Well, I was so drugged up, I didn't really feel anything, but, you puke a lot, before, maybe during, and after." she said, shrugging. "But, if you have a natural birth, like your Mother probably did, it's extremely painful." she mused.

Helena recoiled, her mouth agape in horror. "That sounds terrible!" she exclaimed, suddenly feeling disinclined to ever have any children in the future.

"Don't worry Helena, not bad drugs, they numb you...Down there..." she said. "And you have a lot of pressure on your tummy when you pushing a baby out of you, so, thats why that would happen." she said, trying to console Helena."But hey, once you hold that baby in your arms... It's all worth it."
