"If you're healthy enough to do such things." Marreck reminded her with a small laugh. "I love you dear but what matters most right now is that you're well." He said softly.

"I'm fine," Emelaide assured him with a laugh, "I've done nothing for far too long. I'm getting restless! And I miss being able to kiss you all the time for fear it will 'hurt my health'," Emelaide added in a teasingly mocking tone.

"You can still kiss me." Marreck assured her as he leaned forward to give her lips a long, tender kiss. "I love you and I simply want you to be well again." He said softly between kisses.

Emelaide smiled as she returned his kisses. "I am well, I assure you. So just kiss me and stop worrying so much?" Emelaide teased with a wink before gently pulling him closer so she could more fully kiss him.

Marreck mumbled something of an agreement as he shifted so that he hovered over Emelaide who was safely resting on the pillows. "I love you, Emelaide." Marreck said softly between kisses before his tongue found its way between her lips.

"I love you too," Emelaide murmured in a soft whisper before eagerly returning his kisses with a few of her own, perfectly content in their embrace, something she had missed a great deal during their time staying at Cindalina's.

"We should shower, darling." Marreck said after twenty minutes lost in Emelaide's embrace. "We don't want to waste all day in bed if we have plans of moving." He winked before giving his fiancee a long kiss.

"Mmm, I suppose you're right.. We'll have forever to do this," Emelaide said with a warm smile, "Hand me the basin and I'll bathe with as little movement as possible, I promise."

"I can help you." Marreck encouraged as he set the water basin on the side of the bed and helped Emelaide by beginning to scrub on her neck and shoulders. His moves weren't sensual or enticing but instead chaste as he assisted Emelaide in giving her sponge bath.

"I feel like such a child," Emelaide said softly, though she allowed him to bathe her, "You shouldn't have to be doing this.."

"I don't mind." Marreck said as he continued her bath. "You have no reason to be ashamed. But if I ever get old enough that I have joint problems and can't move well you'll owe me one." He winked.

Emelaide laughed as she placed a tender kiss upon his lips, "Well, if you ever get joint problems, I'll merely limber you back up and correct them. I have a funner plan than bathing you for the rest of your life," Emelaide teased with a wink.

"I'm sure you could." Marreck laughed as he finished bathing his fiance and patted her dry with a towel before helping her change into a clean pair of undergarments and a dress. "But I have to go take a shower." He winked before kissing her forehead and disappearing into the bathroom to bathe himself.

Leaning back into the bed, Emelaide stretched lightly, hoping the doctor would get there soon. Surprisingly, he had just arrived at the home, and was immediately let into the home.

"Well, Emelaide, you're looking better. How are the episodes?"

"Better. My magic is stable, as are the children for the most part. The cravings are getting stranger, but they're not too bad. I've been having an awful lot of back pain, however, due to not being able to move around. Is it possible to move around for just a short time? Not be on complete bed rest?"

"Now Emelaide, you can't over do yourself. We'll do a trial run, you'll be able to get up to shower, and perhaps sit at the table for tea, but that is it. And I'm afraid you and Marreck won't be able to be intimate for awhile longer, you're still to delicate and unstable at the moment," cautioned the doctor and he looked Emelaide over and checked the twins. "When you've shifted in bed, have the twins given any sign of discomfort?"

"Their magic acted up, but nothing more than usual."

"And the pain, did it go away?"

"After a bit, yes."

"Hmm..."

Marreck dressed in a clean pair of pants and a long sleeved shirt after drying off his body from the shower. Still toweldrying his hair, Marreck returned to the bedroom to see the doctor. "Doctor? How's she doing?" Marreck asked as he set the towel aside and ran his fingers through his hair to straighen it out. "Are the babies safe? Can you help her back pain?" He asked quickly.

"Your children are growing fine, Marreck my boy, calm your nerves," the doctor teased with a warm smile, "Your darling fiancee is as strong as ever. I don't believe anything could beat her stubbornness. As for the back pain, I've allowed her to be off bed-rest for certain occasions. However.. I'm not too certain a strenuous activity such as walking to the new home is such a good idea.. I think the pain will be too great for her. However, if you could move her without jostling her too much, I wouldn't be against it."

"Sorry for the questioning." Marreck blushed as he looked over at Emelaide. "Do you feel up to moving?" Marreck asked his fiancee, kneling down to the bed so he was at eye level with her. "We can wait if you're not ready." He promised her.

"I'm. Fine." Emelaide assured them both, "Honestly. I want to move. I hate being in bed all the time, and I over-staying on Cindalina's hospitality. Would Marreck carrying me be alright for the move?"

"That, or a wheelchair. I'll have one sent over, I think that might be easier if Marreck has to carry bags from here to the new house."

"Yes, You're right. Thank you, Doctor," Emelaide said with a warm smile, "I appreciate it."

"You're welcome my dear. The wheelchair will be here within the hour, I promise." And with that, the doctor left the home after exchanging a few goodbyes.

"Do you want me to get everyone now before we bring you to the new house?" Marreck asked as he slipped a hand into her's and gave her fingers small kisses.

"No, no. It will be must easier to just take me before you have them walk here just for me and then walk all the way back to get our things. Remember, don't take everything, my love, this is not a permanent move. We will have to buy new everything for the house. That way we'll have everything in both places and will not have to keep lugging it all back in forth, only the small things such as personals, left-over food, clothing, etc.," Emelaide said with a warm smile as she placed a long, tender kiss upon his forehead.

"Alright." Marreck said simply before walking over to the dresser and taking out a rather large suitcase and beginning to pack the clothing into it before moving into the bathroom and packing away their personal things as well.

"Marreck? Are you sure you wish to keep a house in both Winterglade and Elimlee?" Emelaide called softly as she watched him back up their room.

"Yes, why?" Marreck asked. "I just figured this was the best way to keep you comfortable until the delivery. But if you'd rather just have one home for us to stay in then that can be arranged as well." He said as he zipped up the bag before setting it on the floor and bringing out another to finish up the packing.

"No, no.. I very much like the idea of having a home in both places.. I just.. Are you sure we can afford to furnish two houses? I mean, we've hardly even started furnishing our home in Elimlee, and now I'm asking you to buy and furnish a home in Winterglade..." Emelaide admitted softly as she looked over at Marreck, "I am not sure how long our fortunes will last if we furnish both houses."

"We can afford it." Marreck assured her as he squeezed his fiancee's hand. "We may have to work a little while before we can fully furnish both houses but I can get a job, Em. And we have enough to furnish at least one and part of the other. So don't worry yourself about money." He said before kissing her forehead.
