Chapter 5: midnight snacks and conversations

Dinner went well for the family of seven, plus the older couple of Barbones. Everyone sat together and had a wonderful meal. Shrimp scampi, steak, and mashed potatoes. Soon, bed time came and Brian, Alison, Ryan, and Katherine were fast asleep. Mr. And Mrs. Barbone left the mansion to go home, leaving Erin to do the dishes, and Jacob put Emily down to bed in her crib. Soon, the adult bed time came, so Erin and Jacob hopped into bed. Even though both adults were completely and utterly exhausted, both could not fall asleep. "So.... " said Jacob. "So..." Replied Erin.
"Besides the whole, Emily was born, and Whitney died, how was your day?" Asked Jacob.
"Umm... Okay i guess. Im still trying to come to reality that we have another baby in the house." Erin looked toward the occupied baby crib next to her bed. "Oh my! I just thought if something. Whitney was not a magical witch, she was a squib. Non magical person. That means, that Emily is a hybrid. She has a 50% chance of being magical, but a 50% chance of being a squib just like her mother. What do we do if she isnt magical. What if she never shows signs of magic? I don't know how to raise a muggle,never mind a squib. Oh no! ( dont mind me. I am a complete potterhead and will switch Harry Potter terms if i want to) what will we do then?" Erin started to rant on to her husband.
"I dont know sweetheart. But when the time comes, we will figure something out. Maybe, i could ask my friend Lobster's sister who is also a squib what she did, and how to raise one. She could be a big help. But honey, we dont even know if Little Emmy here is a squib. We will just have to wait and see what happens. Float with the boat ya know?" Jacob yawned, turning onto his side to wrap an arm around Erin's waist. "Now, lets try and get as much sleep as possible because I have a feeling that we will be kept up most of the night due to the newborn baby in our room. Now, shhh, go to bed."
"Okay. Goodnight Jake. See you in the morning, or earlier. Love you."
"Love you more." Whispered nJacob as both his and Erin's breathing became more steady as the two fell asleep.
