*Micaela sat at the seat next to Maxim's (she had made a fuss as soon as she had arrived about not sitting at the end where she couldn't talk to him), waiting for Megan and Christian to come down to breakfast.*

*Christian was the first of the guests to come downstairs. He'd had rather pleasant dreams, for once. Manderley was a breath of fresh air--no stupid garishness like the opera house, no dark cold like the cellars. Here was light, life, and warmth. All the things he'd been missing.
That, and being able to keep track of the time of day. If only Erik would live somewhere else. Somewhere more near the sun...
No. Best not to think of heavier thoughts. Today was not the day for those. He wore a smile when he arrived, dressed casually as he had no idea what you were supposed to wear to a breakfast at a grand house*
"Good morning." He said pleasantly.

"Morning!" *She said cheerily.* "I gave Maxim his present!" *She took a bite of toast and gestured out the window.*
"And look! It snowed!" *She giggled. She was pretty much giddy with excitement.*

"How'd he like the present?" He asked, grinning at her.
He glanced out the window, admiring the view as he dug into breakfast.*

*She grinned.*
"It went really really really really well." *She giggled.*

"Well, I can't think of a better surprise, eh?"

*She grinned.*
"Nope. I don't even care if I get presents or not--this is enough for me." *She said happily, biting into her toast again and swallowing with enthusiasm, though she looked quite pale and rather ill.*

*He watched her surreptitiously for a time before speaking up* "Are you all right? You look ill. "

"Morning sickness." *She explained, giggling again.* "It should stop soon; the doctor said I was three months along."
