Rhiannon nodded and she kept her arms around Addy instead, holding her tightly. "Like Iestyn said, you were so clever."
"Shit," Addy whispered into Rhiannon's chest. "It's shit."
"It is shit, my darling," Rhiannon replied, and Aderyn was so shocked to hear her aunt swear, she pulled back, her eyes still puffy but wide open, her mouth in a perfect shocked 'o'.
"You said shit," she sniffed.
"Well, some very rare occasions call for it," Rhiannon said, reaching out to tuck some of Addy's hair behind her ear. "Very, very rare occasions."
Addy smiled a little. "I can't believe you said shit," she said, shaking her head. Then she leaned over to pull open the drawer of her little nightstand to reveal about thirteen jello cups of various flavours. "I uh...I've been stockpiling jelly."
Rhiannon glanced at David, but she smoothed Aderyn's hair down a little, "you don't need to do that, sweet girl. But if you want to, you can keep them."
