Rachel had managed to get her boys fed, changed and back to sleep, but she was too stressed to try to sleep herself. She'd been helping where she could since all the nonsense started, managing to keep the six week old babies as calm as possible. She hadn't been getting much sleep, though, and this morning was no different. Since the boys were sound asleep, she decided to make herself useful and go make some coffee. She knew she wasn't the only one that wasn't sleeping very well. She got the coffee maker started, and everything seemed to be fine but as she waited for the coffee to brew, she started to worry. It was a given, after all. She knew that her brother was out there fighting, that her aunt and uncle were helping. And the fact that Sarah and Tommy were in the tower didn't help at all. She was almost certain that Sarah was okay. She'd feel it if something were wrong. But she didn't have that connection with any of her other siblings. She started to chew on her thumbnail as she worried, not really paying attention to what was going on around her. Of course, that was the moment when her magic decided to pick up on her emotions. Rachel was startled out of her thoughts as the coffee maker sparked and sizzled, the carafe exploding and sending glass and hot coffee flying. "Shit." She winced and then started trying to clean it up, ignoring any possible injury she might have had and extremely thankful that no one else was in the kitchen with her. |
