Ten more minutes and Sera was due to clock off. She’d seen Abi arrive about five minutes earlier so she knew her replacement was already in meaning there was no wondering if she’d have to stay back for a bit or not, something Sera had been doing a lot of lately. It wasn’t that Sera didn’t like her job, in fact she was one of the few that loved serving drinks at the Ambrosia and found enjoyment in the work, but she also needed to rest a lot. Today she was officially in her third trimester. She was 27 weeks pregnant and her baby was doing well. Amazingly, in fact. Sera knew already that her child was absolutely full of beans, active a lot and kicking away what felt like all day and night. She was carrying a little quarter-vampire and found herself often wondering what advice her mum might give her. These sorts of pregnancies weren’t exactly a frequent occurrence so a little support from someone that had sort of gone through something similar would have really helped, but Sera had to make do. Her dad was really great, she’d curl up with him before the dawn, sometimes, and ask questions, of which she had a lot.
“You look like you could use a drink. I'll fix you up a little something.” Sera said, her warm, infectious smile spreading to the stranger at her bar. He was smiling now but Sera could feel that he was hurting and she wanted to make him something that would help pick his spirits up, so she got to work creating a special cocktail purely for the guy in front of her. When she was done she set the drink down in front of him and he just looked at her, “Trust me,” She said, “You’re gonna love it.” He timidly took a mouthful of the brown and orange concoction that was in a tall glass. Sera could see his aura change almost at once and she smiled, glad to have helped another customer as he placed his coin on the bar and made his way over to a table. Sera scooped up the coins and headed over to the till, the coins ringing as they bumped and fell onto what was already in the till. Sera closed it up and looked down the bar for her next customer.

 Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood Flynn entered the Ambrosia Lounge alone. He'd been working his arse off all day and had a shocking headache to show for it. Tersha had agreed to meet him for drinks once she was finished with her own workload, and Flynn had headed out on his own. He needed a drink to take the edge off, so he headed for the bar, trying not to look as tired as he felt. At least he didn't have to be in work until noon tomorrow, that was a perk. He could drink all he liked and sleep in. Perhaps Tersha would sleep in with him, he wouldn't mind that. Flynn's pale blue gaze found a bartender with her back turned, and he leaned against the bar, waiting for her to be finished at the till. She had a really cute butt, but he wasn't supposed to be checking the staff out. He drummed his fingers on the bar to the beat of the music as he waited. She finally turned around and he paused. Her face was so familiar. Flynn squinted a little, the lights from the dance floor blurring his vision and her face. Then it hit him. New Years Eve. He'd hooked up with this chick for New Years! He wondered if she'd recognise him, and said nothing, only shot her a sexy grin and waited for her to serve him. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 272 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

Sera could see him clear as day. Flynn was sat at the bar, waiting for a drink. Sera's thoughts raced through her mind. Did she find someone else to cover for her? Did she serve him herself? Did she mention the huge bump growing every single day on the front of her body? What was she to do? Without thinking Sera's feet took her to Flynn, a work smile on her face of sheer politeness, "What can I get you?" Thank Merlin that Kit wasn't here because her heart was racing a mile a minute right now and he would have known just exactly why, he was always far too intuitive. All she was going to do was just act as though she didn't recognise him, and maybe she could get hold of Romy or Darcy or Echo and see if any of them had any suggestions on what to do right now.

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood She finally moved along the bar and Flynn got a better look at her. Gorgeous dark hair, beautiful face, glittering eyes. And a bump up front. Whoa. She was pregnant. That kind of put a dampener on things. Resigning himself to just being friendly, he tried to wipe the flirty look off of his face and went for a friendlier smile as she asked what she could get him. "Another night like the last one," he answered, his mouth moving faster than his brain. So much for not flirting. Flynn groaned at himself and his grin widened. "And a beer. Please."_______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 142 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something. XD [googlefont="Clicker Script"][googlefont="Cinzel Decorative"] |

Oh shit. He remembered her. Sera forced a bit of a laugh and ran her hand over her belly without even realising it, "Oh, I don't think so." Well shit. That was just out there then. Maybe he wouldn't put two and two together, but then again he didn't exactly seem like the dumb sort, thank Merlin? Maybe he'd just think that because of her condition that she wouldn't be up for something. Yeah, that would totally be the most logical step to take ... "I'll get you that beer." She said, internally cringing and turning around to grab a fresh glass before she started pouring a pint, not daring to look in his direction.

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood Flynn chuckled as her hands went to her bump and she looked a little bit uncomfortable. "Kidding," he said, wracking his brain to try and remember her name. Was is Sarah? That didn't sound right. "But you do remember me," he added with a grin as she turned to get his beer. He pulled a few coins out of his pocket, rolling them between his fingers as he waited. Selma? No, that wasn't right either. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 116 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

Oh boy did she remember him, "Uh-huh." She nodded her head, forcing a smile to try and appear friendly, although honestly it helped the nausea she was starting to feel. She'd never had a one night stand before him, she'd not had a one night stand since. She's had one partner in her life and now she was pregnant with a stranger's baby. She knew nothing about this guy, all she knew was he was. good snogger and that he liked a beer, but it didn't matter, because here was was with his baby growing inside of her and she was way too chicken to even say anything to him. When the beer was complete she placed it on the bar in front of him, "That's, uh-," Her mind froze as she tried to recall just how much a single beer was, why was this so difficult?!

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood She barely said a word and Flynn was starting to think she was being funny with him until she brought his beer over and he realised that she looked kind of peaky. "Hey, are you okay?" he asked, giving her a good look over. She looked like she might be ready to hurl. "Should you be working? How far along are you?" Flynn knew nothing about pregnancy, but he knew it was hard work and with a bump that size he had to imagine being on your feet for long shifts would be exhausting. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 135 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

Flynn's concern was almost touching and Sera almost felt as though she needed to sit down. Her heart was pounding and she wanted to talk to someone about this but who? She couldn't talk to Flynn because he was the one she needed to talk to someone about. She didn't want to talk to her boss or her shift manager, even though she was sure they'd have some advice and would be impossibly understanding, but what was she going to do? "Nah, I'll be fine, just a little pregnancy brain-fog." She faked a little chuckle, "That's a sickle and eight knuts." She said, smiling awkwardly, really hoping not to have to answer the question of how far along she was.

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood Flynn eyed her carefully, but the smile on his face was bright. "Ahh, brain fog, the natural enemy of a journalist," he said with a sigh. He hated days where his mind felt like pulp, he made no writing progress and felt lousy at the end of the day, and it usually stuck around for at least half a week before adrenaline and fear of being fired kicked it to the curb. He held out his palm, a shiny gold Galleon sitting in it. "Keep the change." His expression was light, friendly, though he still felt like there was something wrong with Sera. Sera! That was her name! Bloody hell that took far too long for him to remember. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 160 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

A journalist? Was that what he did? Sera knew nothing about this guy but she knew she had to tell him that she was expecting his child, she'd want to know if the roles were reversed, not that they could be, but still. "Thanks." She said, taking the coin from his hand and headlining to the till. The till chimed when she opened it and she sorted out the change, putting it in little piles next to the till, a whole galleon for a cheap drink? That was pretty generous, she supposed, so she kind of liked that. Sera looked back to Flynn. He wasn't as hot as she remembered him being but he was certainly attractive. It was weird looking at him and thinking that her baby might have his eyes or his nose. "Are you meeting someone or just popped in on the way home?" She tried to keep her voice light but she couldn't help but feel as though she was interrogating him, but all she wanted to do was figure out if maybe they could have chat now, or arrange another time to maybe catch up, although if she didn't do it now, there was a good chance she'd chicken out, or he might not show.

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood Either she'd realised that her customer service skills needed improvement, or she was warming up to him. Flynn was just glad she was talking, he didn't mind what she asked him, it was better than her looking uncomfortable and pale. "A bit of both," he said, glancing at the door and seeing no sign of Tersha. She'd probably be fashionably late, not that they'd agreed on a time, it was more a "see you there" sort of thing. "A friend is supposed to drop by but I get the feeling I'll be sitting here on my own for a while." Like a total saddo. Flynn didn't mind, he was happy in his own company and he was more than capable of making at least four new friends in the time it would take for Tersha to show up. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 179 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

So Flynn was possibly meeting someone. Okay, she could talk to him and, hopefully, he'd have a friend to comfort him after some pretty world shattering news, although he didn't seem too expectant on his friend turning up, so maybe she'd just end up imploding his world and then he'd have no one to fall back on. What in the hell was she supposed to do? "Well get off in a minute, mind if I join you for a bit?" Perhaps that was a bit too forward, or maybe it wasn't, maybe it wasn't forward enough and she should have just blurted out 'Dude, it's your baby.'

Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can't, it isn't in my blood She wanted to join him? Maybe he'd made more of an impression than he thought he had. Flynn's ego was boosted by her simple request, and he grinned at her. "As long as you keep your hands to yourself this time. I don't want anyone coming for me." He glanced pointedly down at her belly, imagining some angry boyfriend charging into the Prophet offices looking for him. He was joking, of course. Marginally. Actually, was he joking? Flynn sipped his beer before he could get himself in trouble. _______________________ tag: Seraphina Alala Devereaux words: 129 notes: <3 outfit: Shirt and nice jeans or something.

Was this the right call to be making? Sera tried to look at it from his point of view, if someone was out there carrying her baby and she didn't know, she'd want to know, but guys were different, she couldn't get in the mind set of a guy, they were all so different and weird, like Kit and Ollie, Kit had been so pissed when she'd told him she was pregnant, but Ollie, despite his obvious shock at first, was completely supportive, and a little awkward. "Eh-heh." She laughed a little awkwardly at his joke. The only person he need worry about was Kit, probably, although Sera had no idea what her brother would do if he met the man semi-responsible for her current condition. "I'll be with you in a bit." Sera turned about, absolutely mortified at how this evening was going. She made her way past the new girl who was being trained by one of the older bar staff and headed to the staff room in silence, head down while she tried to figure out what she was going to say, or maybe she could just bolt now?
