Compound: Birthday Presents

Micah Breedposted to‎Elise Chase

July 11

*Finally feeling satisfied with the gift choices for his mother's birthday, he can't help the smile from spreading across his face as he cradled a bouquet of the most purple roses he could find and raised his hand to lightly knock at her door* Mom, you in? — with Tegan GenOne and Elise Chase.

  Elise Chase *Smiling at the sound of her son's voice, she called out a greeting as she closed her laptop and put it away.* Come in, sweetie.

  Micah Breed *Pushing through the door, he was greeted by the most beautiful smile in the world* Happy Birthday, Mom. I'm sorry I was late with the gifts, but I wanted to make sure they were perfect. *pulling a small box from his pocket and handing it to her* I got you this too. Carys helped with the ideas. I'm not the best with these things.

  Elise Chase *Taking the box, she pulled him into her arms hugging him tight.* I don't expect presents, just having you is enough. *She removed the top of the box and gasped at the exquisite necklace.* Micah, it's perfect! Will you put it on for me? And the roses are gorgeous. *After he latched the necklace around her neck she turned back to face him and kissed his cheek.* Let me put these in a vase.

  Micah Breed *Smiling at the way she shined, he couldn't help but miss the opportunity to poke some fun at his father at the success of his gifts* It's as beautiful as the female wearing it. *Smirking a little as he followed her into the kitchen and leaned against the counter* So, how'd the rest of the birthday treat you?

  Elise Chase Wonderful actually. This one was calm and peaceful. Not worrying about you or your father being away but I stopped counting when I passed the 100 mark so it's just another year. How are you, making any plans for yours next month? *She hopped up on the small counter, the extra height allowing her to almost look him level in the eyes.*

  Micah Breed *Arcing a brow as she moves to a higher perch* No plans as of yet. Maybe see if Carys is back in town. Her and Aric, Jordana, Nathan, Dare and I might go out to the club. Seems to be the most popular activity at least *Sending a smirk his mother's way* unless you know of any other place where females run wild and free *Making a quick escape of the open hand swat he knew was coming. So much strength for such a tiny female. It's a wonder his own birth didn't break her to pieces* Hey, random question about that, how did you survive that night, when I was born *hesitating a moment before blurting out a qualifier* Nothing gross though.

  Elise Chase *Laughing as he dodged her hand, she smiled as she thought about the memory of his birth.* Nothing gross but if it involved your dad freaking out, that would be ok? *At his smirking nod, she rolled her eyes* Well Breed babies aren't huge as newborns so it's the same as any human giving birth. I believe your movements are little stronger but nothing that would harm the mother. There was that wonderful, calm breedmate there that helped. I have often thought of her as she disappeared in all the ruckus when The Order arrived. You know your dad found her afterwards?

  Micah Breed *Tilting his head as he thoughtfully watched her recall the events* Dad did? *laughing a little* She's still alive, right?

  
  
• 

  Elise Chase *Laughing* Maybe a small bit, it was all the pain I was in though. Remember he could feel it through the blood bond too. But as for her, I assume so? Maybe talk with Tegan and see if he knows. It wouldn't surprise me to know exactly where she is.

  Micah Breed *Making a mental note to do just that* So Dad freaks out, and a secret wonder wom - wait, did you say breedmate? *making another mental note as she nodded* a secret wonder breedmate saved the day before Lucan and the Order rushed in and she vanishes into the dark night amidst the cries of a newborn Breed? That's my life?!

  Elise Chase *Smirking back at him* Yes, that about sums up your birth except that it happened in a public restaurant. You march to your own timeline, son. She had the breedmate mark on her hand. It put your dad on edge as soon as he saw it. He can tell you more, you know that Breed memory. *She jumped off the counter and took his hand leading him back to the couch.* Enough about that, let's talk about these wild and crazy girls. *His face was priceless as they sat down and caught up with each other, well as much as any son tells his mother.*
