GEN IV: Chapter 21

A few weeks passed and with Jennifer's new acceptance of Adelaide, she and Brian saw each other more frequently and more openly. The two of them were going steady, and hadn't even shared a first kiss. Certain tensions were running high between the two of them but there relationship was going well. Jennifer was happy to watch Logan while her the two of them went to movies, or dinner.

Jennifer and Logan's birthdays were fast approaching. Since they fall so close together they were going to celebrate with one big birthday party. Also, to make for a great get together, since Carla's birthday was so near Logan's, they were going to have a cake for her as well. All three were to celebrate on the same day, just one week away.

Logan spent most of this morning playing. Sitting in a chair pretending he was the best racer in the world was one of his favorite things to do, he would sit there for hours. In addition to that, the sandbox was second on his list of best toys. He would frequently go out and sit to throw sand around, or build some kind of sculpture.
Jennifer came to hang out with her brother one day, she had been sitting there only ten minutes when Adelaide came from across the street to say hello.

"I saw you guys out here and figured I'd come by and say 'Hi'. How are you?"

"Great. We're just waiting for dad to come home, he's out working."

Adelaide stayed with Jennifer and Logan for an hour or so before she went back to her house. She came back over the next day after the kids went to school to hang out with Brian. The two of them played a game of chess before coming out to soak in the jacuzzi.
Brian and Adelaide sat in the swirling water for about an hour before Brian finally made a move. All he did was kiss her.

The relationship between the two of them had been going on for so long without so much as a kiss. Now, amongst the swirling hot water, with that one kiss - that one touch of their lips - the floodgates opened wide. A small kiss turned into a small makeout session, which continued on to slipping off the bathing suits.
Right there in the middle of the neighborhood, in broad daylight, Adelaide and Brian dove beneath the water and made very passionate love to each other. The tension that had built up between the two of them during there relationship was all released in that 2 hours. After such unbridled passion both of them felt much better and more relaxed. In addition to this, Brian's emotions and feelings were finally sorted out. He knew exactly what he wanted.
Adelaide and Brian stepped out of the hot tub, dressed and embraced. While Brian had her close he whispered in her ear.

"Adelaide, I don't want to let you go. Move in with me. Stay here, don't go home."

Adelaide was surprised. "Are you sure? What about Jennifer and Logan, will they object?" She asked.

"Logan adores you, and Jennifer has come to love you as well. They might be shocked, but they'll come to terms, no worries."

It was a good thing Jennifer had decided to stay and do her homework at school, if she had caught the bus home when school let out, she would have walked right into Brian and Adelaide heating things up in the jacuzzi.

Later that afternoon Brian and Adelaide discussed her moving in with the children. Jennifer accepted it with as smile and a hug, and Logan cheered. He said he would be happy to have Adelaide there all the time. She had become pretty important to Logan.


Another week passed quickly, filled with school and work. Adelaide made herself at home nicely and settled into a routine with no problems. She even took over the garden since Jennifer really did not seem to enthused about it. She could not wait to get digging every morning.

The morning of the party arrived and Brian interrupted a game of chess that Adelaide and he were playing to make a phone call to Dylan. Just a few days prior to this one, Brian had called many friends to set up for the birthday celebration this evening. Dylan had been the only person he was unable to reach. Though he only lived next door, Brian used the phone to call again - successful this time. Dylan said he would come right over and the festivities could begin. It was perfect timing actually because the guests started arriving as soon as Brian hung up.

Jennifer was the first to blow out her candles, though she did not make a wish. She knew what she really wanted could never come true, so she didn't bother. She was still sure that her mother was watching her, whether visible or not. She glanced at Adelaide and felt happy to at least have her there. A woman that she knew cared about her.

Jennifer grew to a lovely young lady. She posed and strutted, showing off her new form.


*** Writers note: Just wanted to say that the remaining pics were edited in Picasa, I needed them lightened so we could see them. The party was at sunset and night, so they were to dark to see. I hope they came out okay :-) Sorry back to the story ***



Carla came next, and did not hold back on the wishing. She wished to be normal again, for her bones to catch up with her so she could fit in again. Her wish was granted, as the doctors had predicted, her body entering the teen years was perfect. She smiled and cheered with such happiness that everyone around couldn't help but sigh and smile with relief along side her. Carla was beautiful once again.
Logan's celebration was last in line and he was so thrilled to blow out his candles that he nearly forgot to wish for something. He thought of his wish as his own breath snuffed out the flame, a very simple and thoughtful one. A happy family. He was pretty sure he already had that, and he wanted it to stay that way.

Pretty soon a crowd of guests pushed in to get some cake.

After the party had ended, everyone said their goodbyes and went home.

Later that night, as each family member was headed to their room for the night, Logan saw Adelaide blow past him to get to his bathroom. He wondered briefly what that was about before picking up his room and getting ready for bed. A minute later when Adelaide left the bathroom, she looked slightly pale.

"Sorry about that, your bathroom was closest. I think I had too much cake." She said to Logan. "Well, goodnight darling, sleep well. Happy Birthday." Adelaide hugged Logan and left for her own room.

Brian felt her snuggle up next to him and felt complete bliss wash over him before he fell asleep.

  2. I feel like if Addy is pregnant, Jennifer is going to have a bit of a fit. Judging based on the childrens ages, Brian must be getting close to elderhood?
