*Aimee had run from the centre--she couldn't take Uncle Marius's melancholy anymore. She wanted to visit her home, to pick up the rest of her dolls, to see auntie Renn. Just for the day, she needed to escape.*
*She knocked softly on the door.*
"Auntie Renn?"

*Renn opened the door, a tired smile on her face.*
"Hey Aimee!" *she said, standing aside.* "Come in!"
*She peered out the hallway behind the girl.* "Did you come all the way over here by yourself?"

*She nodded.*
"Uh-huh. Uncle Marius is depressed and in a wheelchair, and he can't come with me. And none of the caretakers had time. So I came by myself--when maman was still alive, I used to walk around the city by myself all the time." *She said.* "I came to pick up my dolls, and to see you of course." *She ommited the fact that Uncle Marius was melancholy and completely annoying her and that she had had to escape or go crazy. She walked in, siting herself on the couch.*

"That's dangerous, babes! I don't want anything to happen to you," *she said with concern. She shook her head, and went to sit on the arm of the sofa next to Aimee.*
"Do you want some tea? I think I have some cookies in the pantry too, of you don't object..." *She grinned widely.*

*Aimee grinned.*
"Of course. Tea and cookies sounds a lot better than Recovery Centre food."

*She frowned.*
"I'll bet."
*Renn got up and put the kettle on for tea, and put several cookies out on a plate. She worried about the little girl, living in a place full of invalids and sick people. That wasn't a way for a child to grow up! She considered inviting her to live with her but she couldn't! She glanced at her stomach, upsettingly bigger. Having Aimee stay with her but giving up her own child for adoption didn't seem fair...*

*When Renn stood, Aimee noticed something off about her...*
"Auntie Renn? Can I ask you a question?" *She asked.*

"Sure hun, anything you like."
*She decided that if Aimee asked to stay with her, she couldn't turn her down, but she wouldn't bring it up herself. At least, that's what she hoped she was asking about...*

*Aimee frowned, knowing that it was usually a touchy subject. She decided to ease into it.*
"Do you have a boyfriend?"

*Aimee blushed.*
"Um, oh." *She looked straight at Renn, back to her usual straightforward self.* "Are you pregnant?" *She asked quickly.*

*She closed her eyes for a moment, cursing under her breath. She opened them with a forced smile as she poured hot water into two cups.*
"It's that obvious, eh?"

"Nuh-uh. You were just acting wierd, and your stomach was a little roundish."

"Right."
*She added milk and sugar to the tea and handed one of the cups to Aimee. Taking a sip of her own, she sighed.*
"Well then..."
*It was easier when just House knew. Sure, he'd be an arrogant prick about it, but she didn't care about his opinion. Aimee, however...*

**AIMEE**
*Aimee smiled and sipped her tea.*
"Does that mean I'll have a cousin?" *She asked.*
