DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 "I doubt it...eggs need a mama...they ain't like people who can have an uncle or auntie like we's got..." said Luke logically. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 "Dey can so!"Bo countered back angrily. As much as Luke had a temper, Bo's could just as eaisly flare up when provoked. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 "No they can't Bo...you shouldna took it..." countered Luke. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 "Unca Jesse takes dem all the time! And they can so!"Bo countered back, not only getting more angry but also getting more upset. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 The ones Jesse takes never hatch though do they?" asked Luke. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 "No cause Uncle Jesse puts em in the fwidge! He don't keep dem warm or nuffin'...mine's gonna hatch!"Bo cried back earnestly. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Luke shrugged. "Guess we'll see..." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo folded his arms with a pout, feeling certain that he was right and he was determined to look after the little thing no matter how long it took to hatch. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Luke shook his head a little walking away. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo watched him go before laying back down and talking to the egg."I wont wet him take you...nu uh...i'll wook after you wike Unca Jesse an Auntie wook after me an' Wuke an' Daisy...you'll like Daisy...she's nice and likes cute things..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Luke went back to their room, playing with his cars by himself. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Many weeks later, seemingly out of no where, Bo came running into the lounge where Jesse, Lavinia and Luke were all sat reading a book. The happy grin on his face and the gleam in his eyes made it clear before he said anything that he was excited."Unca Jesse! Auntie! Wuke!!! Come wook it! Come Wook!" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Luke frowned getting up. "What?"Lavinia took the little hand Bo offered and followed Bo into the laundry room. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo practically dragged Lavinia long with as much strength as he had, letting go at the door to the laundry room and scampering over to where he had hid his egg. Unwrapping it carefully, it was clear to see the many crack lines on the little thing as well as the slight shakes it gave every now and then...Bo's egg was hatching.Bo grinned up proudly at his Auntie and Uncle who was looking flabbergasted over Lavinia's shoulder. Luke had told him of Bo's escapde with the egg and had suggested that if they left him to his own devices, eventually he would get bored...none of them had really believed his egg would hatch. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Luke's jaw dropped, unable to believe what he saw. "It...you...wow." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo grinned"Auntie its hatching!" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Lavinia smiled. "Well I see that Bo...I don't believe it...but I see it..." Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo looked excitedly over to his egg again, all four Dukes in the room watching as eventually the little chick pecked its way through the shell and tumbled out of it into the soft hay and blankets, chirping away. Little Bo was bouncing with joy on the floor where he sat."She's so liddle!" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Lavinia chuckled and nodded. Jesse smiled big. "We'll lookee there Bo...looks like ya done hatched yer egg alright."Luke just smiled watching the tiny chick as it opened its beak. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo leaned forward and carefully picked up the little thing in it towel to keep it warm, looking over it."Hewwo..." Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 The little chick chirped before settling into Bo's hand. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo grinned wider, looking up at his Aunt."She knows me!" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 The little chick chirped before settling into Bo's hand. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 (disregard the previous)Lavinia smiled. "Course she does...she prolly thinks yer her mama..."Luke giggled but stopped as Jesse shot him a look. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted February 7, 2008 Author Report Posted February 7, 2008 Bo smiled, not hearing Luke's giggle as he reached out a finger and softly stroked the little chick's head, holding it close tenderly to his body in order that the tiny thing would keep warm. He soon frowned though and looked up at Lavinia."What d'I give her t'eat Auntie?" Quote
