Voltaire walked a bit quicker to get ahead of Isabella as they reached her office, he twisted the bags around his wrist and opened the door awkwardly and held it open for her as he twisted them back into his hand comfortably.

Isabella was behind him a way, but she saw his clumsy maneuver. Frowning, she walked up to him, with her hands on her hips. "Voltaire! It's bad enough you insisted on letting me carry just two light bags, but you know I could easily have opened the door! Honestly, you're very sweet, but stop babying me!"

"But I want too!" he said firmly, "The day that i decide no to is the day you'll want it most! i can almost guarantee that!" he said finally setting down the bags by her desk and popping his shoulder and wrists. "See! that isn't so bad!" he said with a smirk.

"If I want you to baby me, I will tell you," Isabella said. "You know me, I'm not shy about telling you what I want, now am I? But right now, I'm feeling just a little self-conscious about my... condition and I don't want to be fussed over so much. But what I do want," she added with a grin, "is a back rub! My spine is killing me..."

"Oh! now i think i like that idea." he said walking over toward her. "Ok fine, I promise to stop babying you...much." he said then adding "I can't help it! Rori is right, I mother hen!" he said chuckling.

Isabella sat down sideways on a chair so he could rub her back. "I love you, but you don't need to worry so much about me, OK? I'm tough." She frowned. "If you're the worrying type, does this mean I'll be the strict one who makes all the rules?"

"Maybe...Or I'll worry so much I'll make rules for the rules and you'll have to get me to let go." he said chuckling nervously. he actually didn't know how worried he'd get once Bubble was born... He started to rub Isabella's shoulders and worked his thumbs lower into her flesh so the muscles eased from their knots.

Isabella let out a happy sigh. "I know I can be very picky about things... I like things a certain way. I just hope I don't get too picky after the baby's born. Children don't often do what you want them to do, you know." She closed her eyes in bliss. "Oh, yes, that's the spot.... right there..."

"Don't be ridiculous. The two things have nothing to do with each other. I was perfectly fine... My back hurts more from standing up than from carrying things..." Isabella said. "Remember, I'm not like the other insipid women you... uh, kept company with... I'm sure they freaked out if they so much as broke a nail." She smirked back at him.

"actually your right, but the differance is that I never cared if they broke down and screamed bloody death." he said with a grin.

Isabella smiled. "Well, that's the kind of thing I like to hear," she replied. "And I love that you care and worry about me. But I have always been an independent woman and it isn't easy for me to accept help from anyone. I've always been able to take care of myself... in fact, I was the only one I could trust to do so. I'm not used to needing anyone's help."

"well, you're going to learn how to accept mine. Because I never wanted to help anyone, and with you I want to make never break a nail." he said leaning over her shoulder and kissing her cheek.

Isabella smiled. "Well.... OK... but that doesn't mean I can't complain about it," she said. "I mean, if I just sat back and let you do everything, I wouldn't be the strong, independent woman you fell in love with, now would I?"

"Don't you try and con me, Ok, so If i spoil you, you won't be my terrifying and darling spitfire...but let me spoil you a little!" he said wrapping his arms around her body.

Isabella leaned back into his arms and closed her eyes. "You know I can't deny you anything," she sighed. "I may be strong, but when it comes to you, I'm weak as a kitten...."

"Aww!" he said purring in her ear. "You know that i'll be more than happy if your happy." he said cuddling down with her. after about half an hour of cuddles and kisses he said "We'll have to go find the girls...I can't expect them just to show up..." he said sounding clearly as "please, come here because i don't want to get up." tone.

"Mmmmmm, you're right," Isabella said reluctantly. "I wonder if I could get them to come here if I used a summoning charm on them?" she teased. "I never tried it with people before..."

Voltaire smiled and said "would that be very responsible accio'ing a person?" he said kissing her jaw. with a sigh he stood up and said "Come on, we might as well check the great hall, it's about lunch time right now... with our stroll, and our cuddling I'm sure we'll find one or two of them around there." he said looking at the door with a look of tiredness.

Isabella laughed. "Probably not. In fact, I'm not sure it would work. Ah, well. I guess we'll have to get up and look for them. I'm willing to bet we'll find Natalie up in that tree by the lake. I think that girl spends most of her time there. I have no idea what Anna's been up to these days, but Rori's been spending a lot of time with that boy Landon..." she said with a wink.
