Noelle frowned. "Please?" She whispered to Garrett, lifting up the spoon for him. "Please eat?" She felt... horrible feeding him, that he'd hate it but she'd do it if she had to. She was almost desperate to get him to eat something.

Izy shifted too, exhausted and starting to get cranky. It was time for her nap, but she wouldn't stop until told to. She shifted onto her stomach, then her back, then her side and then she sat up in a huff.

Whisper sat up after Izy had and smiled at her. "Hey, you wanna nap with us?" she asked softly.
Christian glanced over at them, but didn't move. He'd gotten comfortable, and like Jacob, might as well have napped there.

Garrett opened his eyes and managed to opened his mouth and swallow it down. He looked to Noelle pathetically, before closing his eyes again.

***

Jacob murmured. "Yeah Izy come join us."

Noelle kissed his cheek. "I love you." She whispered, not caring if this was pathetic. She needed... he needed to eat! She gave him as many spoonfuls of the soup as he could take, when he stopped she'd ask for him to eat more, but... she couldn't get him to eat as much as she wanted.

Izy looked over at Whisper and Jacob and then at Christain and shook her head. "No nap." She crossed her little arms in defiance, but really... she wanted to sleep.

Whisper laughed softly. "Come on," she said. "The grass is so comfy."
Christian nodded and got up, grabbing her and pulling him down with him. "Nap with me."

Garrett leaned back. "Don't tell anyone about this." He mumbled grumpily, a bit of old Garrett showing through.

***

Jacob smiled at them and closed his eyes, feeling rather lathargic.

Noelle shook her head. "I'd never... you know I wouldn't." She said softly, just so relieved that he actually ate something, finally." She kissed his cheek. "Thank you for eating, I know... you didn't want to."

****
Izy tumbled over with Christain, not wanting to sleep, but... the grass was so comfortable and Christain was right there and also really comfortable. She curled up beside him, one of her hands, taking hold of his.

Christian grinned up at Whisper triumphantly. She laughed quietly and lay back down her head on Jacob's shoulder again.

Garrett swallowed a bit and sighed, resting down. "I don't feel well." he whispered softly.

"What do you mean?" Noelle whispered back to him. "What's wrong?" If he could tell her... she would fix it. Anything she would try and fix for him.

"I'm just tired." He closed his eyes and tears ran down his cheeks. "I don't want to live like this Noelle...always running."

Noelle frowned and hugged Garrett close to her. "I know... that's how we've lived so much of our life together and you were running before I met you... I'm so sorry Garrett." She whispered. "We... need to take care of Eve and her children so that we don't have to anymore."

"We don't know how many there are." He whispered. "Jacob's son could have impregnated dozens of women by now...it might be too late."

"But we can't... think like that. I know that Jacob's son as much as it makes me sick to say it... but we'll find those children too and... take care of it." Noelle closed her eyes, knowing that would be nearly impossible. "I don't know..."

Garrett nodded. "She said she's banned her son from mating until she gets Jacob back...But for how long? We'll have to capture him, interrogate him and find the women that he fucked." He looked to Noelle. "That's a plan..."
