She nodded. "Maybe it's the thrill. New York has always been shown as one of the states that you do want to visit in your life time. I can see someone getting lost in it and wanting nothing but the best for themselves in it." She laughed and then heard the mention of Mallory. Mickie did not have an issue with that girl at all but Mallory seemed to have all the issue in the world with her. "Oh that must have been fun?" she asked.
She was going to have to make it work. She needed Mallory to be her friend if for nothing else for the sake of the fact that she did value her friendship with Madison. "You know what Madison, I think it will and if it does not we can just go to the diner up the street. They have pancakes for days."Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

“I grew up there. I prefer it here to be honest” Madison replied and then added “we left with a pile of clothes and that’s even before the baby shower. It was fun”. She was happy and cheerful again and said “let’s see what they have in this new place first. Either way I love pancakes”. Which was how she met Mallory in the first place. Mickie Reed

"I can see that. I know that I prefer it here too but that is because I am much more free and my job has way more benefits that I guess I could have ever imagined that a job would or should," she said as she held the door open. "After you," she said.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

"Thank you Mickie" Madison cheerfully replied and they had to wait for a seat rather than just stroll over to a table. In the meantime they got to look at the menu and there was a lot of fish and vegetable options on it. She ordered flaked red snapper fish with a little white sauce, sweetcorn, garden peas and white rice. For her beverage she chose a diet soda and then the waitress asked for Mickie's selection. She was getting more used to this kind of diet and it was certainly healthier than what she'd have eaten at home. The island provided a bounty of fresh vegetables and fish. She'd seen goats around before so that meant goats milk and cheese. The cheese could certainly be exported. Mickie Reed

"No problem," she said as she looked over the menu. Friendships were always something she felt could survive anything so she was glad that her and Madison had a bond like that. "I have to have the salmon and one of the new options. "Miso honey glazed fish." It was a lot but she could take it home. "So after your meeting, will your job change or is it like your job is slowly expanding?"Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

With their orders taken they just had to wait until a table became free which didn't look like it would be long. "Your selection does sound nice" Madison replied then added "I'm not sure just yet. I'd like to keep up the coaching side of things rather than just become an administrator. I suppose it depends on how busy future planning gets and how much services need to expand. Avery might have an idea of that already but I'd miss coaching the children". Mickie Reed

"I hope that it does not change too much for you but if it does maybe you can rotate? I mean there is so much here on the island that doing this a few days, take a break, then do something else might work too." She loved this island so much and as soon as she had Eric everything would be perfect. "I can't wait until it's done, then I can say hey my friend did that, do you know how amazing that is? To know someone that is helping it's like finishing a science project and being so proud.Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison had never foreseen this career path. She’d figured she would just be coaching or occasionally running the reception desk from time to time but the path had opened up by chance. She smiled a little knowing she’d a lot more work to do but she could feel pride in helping the people of her new home. A chance she wouldn’t have gotten in New York for sure. “People sacrificed their time and skills to help me when I was a child and I want to do the same. Some of those children will do likewise in the future. Now I can also help build what people will need right now and later. This island is my home now and it will also have a public swimming pool and beach volleyball as part of those plans. At least I will be able to deputise at times given there will be new staff on top of the new facilities.” Mickie Reed

"I think as long as you are always happy doing what you do and have help as it seems that you will then I see no reason that it can not be something great and the island is home." She was still getting used to it but so far her future looked bright and she was a fan of that. "New staff is always good too, are you looking forward to working with them?"Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison could call this island home now. She also had found love here along with a purpose and also a new destiny for herself. Now knowing she could develop herself out to infinity given enough time there was that new challenge to live with as well as being an auntie to three babies. Things were looking up but she couldn’t shake that feeling that trouble was never far away from her new home. “I am once they are recruited. Things might take a while but everything will be ready on time” she replied as they got a table to sit at. Mickie Reed

"Well things taking time is not always bad and I mean good things always take time." It was what she had to keep telling herself about Eric because if she did not then she knew that she would get angry and once she got upset and overwhelmed there honestly was no telling what she would do. "At least we have a table now which means we will have food soon and food always helps us to keep going unless we take a nap and that is just a well deserved short intermission."Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison nodded and replied "things taking time usually mean they get done right. Especially with what I'm working on now. There could be developments after that too depending on how this phase goes". This extra work was actually keeping her mind of things but things should be settling down once the babies were born. Then she wouldn't also have to worry about her brother as well as the the two women in his life. It wasn't normal for the guy to be all ill as along with the women during a pregnancy. She'd always worried about her brother even when they'd been parted and she wouldn't ever stop she supposed. "I don't think we'll have long to wait for the food either" she added. Mickie Reed

"You need a vacay," she said. "Just listening to you talk about it, makes me need a vacation but then I look around and I realize that the work put in and seeing it is amazing," she said as the waitress came over. "Well once you are done and free,you really should take a moment to relax. I hope that you can anyway, we all need to get to a point where we are able to."Madison Nottingham-Quinzell

Madison knew she wasn’t too far from completing the project. Then she’d meet Avery as planned for that dinner meeting. What Mickie made sense but she’d take a break soon enough as she’d talked with Mallory about going to New York. “I feel pretty close to completing this. Two more days and I can present it to Avery” she replied with a smile. She felt pride in her work given the most complex document she’d put together was College papers. That meeting with Avery was further away so she could have a break on the island or at least get out and do something relaxing. Then their lunches arrived along with the waitress. Then she added “Let’s say my high school sex ed clearly didn’t cover what happens here when a woman gets pregnant. I’m glad to not have to go through it but I will be an auntie in a few weeks. It’s a rough time for my brother too”. So with her being pulled every direction as things played out round her no wonder she needed a break. “I’ll get to do something. Even if it’s only a diving trip. You don’t need to worry”. She didn’t sound tired in a physical way. Her human plus ability might be the reason but she’d end up doing too much and causing herself stress if she wasn’t careful. Mickie Reed

The worry was on her face but for a second and then the waitress arrived. "It does sound like a lot." Emotions were always a thing but so far she could say that she looked up and seen how well Madison had taken it all in stride. "You know what else helps," she said as she looked over her food, absolutely delicious. "Screaming."
She knew that for most it could and would be looked at as crazy but screaming did help. "Just going somewhere where no one is and screaming until you can not anymore, I am serious about this."Madison Nottingham-Quinzell
