Chapter Twelve "And so, our parents fell in love,and moved into this very basement Jenna'd have Dad trapped in." Heather concluded. She was sitting cross-legged on the basement floor, with Daisy and Lily sitting in front of her. Amanda had asked Heather to tell her two youngest sisters the story about why they were living in a basement with absolutely no way out at a young age, so they would have plenty of time to process what they'd learned.
"That's really creepy." Daisy's response jerked Heather back to the present. She looked down at her black haired sister.
"What
I find creepy, Daisy," Heather told her sister, "Is that you're able to speak so well at the age of three." Her sister shrugged.
"It was easy." Daisy answered, shrugging.
"Goody. Now if only leaning to walk would be as easy as talking is for you." Heather remarked. Daisy had been trying to learn to walk for about two weeks now, and could only take three steps before falling over.
"Well, Lily can walk fine, and can't talk very well." Daisy pouted. Walking's just hard for me, okay?" She crawled over to the blocks table in the corner of the basement.
Thrilsville. My three year old sister giving me attitude. Heather turned to Lily, who had been quiet the whole time. "Are you okay, Lily?" she asked. It had been no surprise Daisy hadn't been cared out of her wits by the story, but she'd been worried about how Lily would cope.
"I'm scawwed..." Lily whimpered. "What if Jenna comes 'nd puts me in a basemint?" Heather scooped Lily up, and hugged her.
"Don't worry, Lil. Jenna doesn't even know you exist." Heather didn't bother telling Lily that she already
was locked up in a basement. "Whay don't you go play with your sister?"
"Okay!" Lily chirped, suddenly happy again. Heather out her down, and she toddled over to her sister. Heather then walked over to Raymond, who was making Autumn Salad for their dinner tonight.
"Did you finish the story?" Raymond asked.
"Yup." she grabbed an olive off the cutting board. "Daisy wasn't that fazed, but Lily got freaked out big time."
"Well, they'll get used to it."
"I guess. Do you know when mom'll be back?"
"No, but I hope she won't stay out long, in her condition." Raymond remarked, gathering the vegetables in a bowl. Amanda was pregnant again, and Raymond didn't want her outside for very long. At that moment, Amanda appeared in a flash of rainbow light.
"I'm home!" she called. Rose bounded over to her, and hugged her.
"Hi, mom!" Rose was holding Heather's old teddy bear, who she'd renamed Everly, and was acting as hyper as ever. "I made pie just for you!" She let go, and skipped over to her oven, that had also been passed down from Heather. Most of Rose's toys were hand me downs, but she didn't seem to care . The only thing that Heather had refused to pass down to Heather was her music box. She treasured it.
"Heather, Rose, please feed your sisters, and then we can eat." Raymond called.
"Okie Dokie!" Rose called. She went over to the fridge, and pulled a bottle of milk out. Heather did the same, and they walked over to their sisters. Lily was flinging blocks at the wall, putting dents in them. Daisy was stacking all the square blocks on top of each other.
"Lily!" Rose called sternly. Lily turned around and looked guiltily at her sister. "Don't ruin the blocks, other people want to play with them, too!"
"I sowwy." Lily said, pouting. Rose handed her the bottle, while Heather walked over to Daisy. She gave her the bottle, and looked her sister in the eye.
"Look, Daisy. I know pretty much nothing scares you, but don't use that to start scaring Lily, okay?" Daisy nodded.
"Sure. Sorry."
Heather got up, and walked over to the dinner table. When they were about halfway through eating, however, Amanda got up with a sharp gasp. Her labor had started.
Consider this labor scene... SKIPPED!
...
What, you were actually expecting me to write one this time? Anyway... After a somewhat hard labor, Amanda and Raymond's fifth child had been born. A beautiful baby girl, named Violet. Amanda, Raymond, Daisy and Lily had all gone to sleep, and Heather and Rose were looking into Violet's crib.
"I read that Violets signify power, confidence and spirituality." Rose said. "Do you think this Violet will be like that?"
"Of course she will." Heather murmured. "She's our sister."

Chapter notes:
* See, I said I'd update today, and I did! ^^
* I'm pretty sure Lily has brown hair.
* Also, this is the bad part about having so many characters in the story. It's hard to fit them all in and give them speaking rolls.
* Heck yeah! This thread is now a very hot topic!
* I realize that I forgot to mention that that the twins grew up into toddlers in this chapter, although it's pretty obvious.
* In advance, Violet had black hair and blue eyes.
* I forgot her traits, I'll post them in the next chapter notes.
* I doubt Raymond and Amanda (or Raymanda XD) will have any more kids, as they've already got five.
* And even if I wanted them to, they can't. They've got a full house until Jenna kicks the bucket.
* I swear by grandfather's hammer (whatever that means -.-") that I will update today, after a short sims break.
* Tell me what you think of this chapter! Pwease? :3
