She nodded. "That sounds good actually. You know this is the first time that I have been in someone else's home but it's nice." Maybe she wanted to do it more, she was still trying to figure it all out. "I do think that after a small while has passed we will not feel so awkward but getting to know anyone and being invited to their home can always be a bit of a big deal so that is probably why we all feel just a little nervous."

He nodded and he felt more comfortable around people. He was also more friendly. "You guys have no worries here. I mean I grew up with a bit of a big family so learning to give people space when they need it and then learning to let everyone have what they need when they need it is also something I tend to be good at," he said as he handed them a glass of wine if they wanted it. "If everyone would take a seat at the table I can dip a little food for us to eat while we talk. How are you guys doing at work?" Decipher NottinghamDavid LightfeatherPeyton Coldstone

"Sounds good to me," she said. "How are the two of you adjusting to parent life?" she asked. She knew that everyone was different but she seen no reason for them not to speak about it because maybe they could help one another. David LightfeatherPeyton ColdstoneGraysen Maddox

David fielded the question from Decipher as he sat down in the offered seat. "Looking after Ella is a lot of work but its so worth it. She learns everyday and she's trying to crawl already. Once she figures that out there won't be much to stop her" he replied with a smile. He was so proud of his little girl and then he turned his attention to Graysen. "I'm still working with my usual brains trust but also going to be working with Peyton on one of her projects. There's always something going on in ARI" he added. The lack of a sleep cycle made dates harder and he found himself drinking more tea. Though he was able to adjust his working hours and start time so he could collect Ella from day care.

She was still learning a lot but she was smart enough to know that eventually you did need friends. "Aside from a lack of sleep everything is normal for us I think, well almost normal. My return to work is next week and I know I will miss my daughter but I also know it is time but our job, the people we work for so far seem very accomodating so I am hoping that remains as I return to work but we will see."

Graysen had to admit that when you put a kid into the picture it almost always made things more difficult. He was not even sure either him or Decipher either one had truly adjusted to what that meant. "It is different but I do hope that our children will grow up to remain friends plus the different personalities will have to come into play at some point but it might not ever be bad." It had taken him getting into sports to truly learn how to make friends but he hoped that his children would not have to go that far since he wanted them to not be so strange to others along the way.

She loved the atmosphere that they had created. It seemed luckily enough that her and Graysen knew how to host someone without much trouble and that made her happy because she did think that maybe at some points they did not but she wanted it to go well for her husband and so far so good.

David was enjoying this time so far. It did feel strange that Ella had her sitter tonight but he figured she needed to get used to the idea before daycare started. So this was their first normal date night in a while. “Ella and Diana do seem to be getting on quite well. I can see them staying friends as they grow up” he remarked. “I also have a feeling she’ll make friends in daycare and be more social than I was growing up.”. Knowing his nature was part of the problem but he grew up in a village where the highlight of events was the Young Farmers Club and the occasional visit to the Exeter Chiefs match. “You’ll be fine my love. Ella will be fine as well” he added to reassure Peyton. Peyton ColdstoneDecipher NottinghamGraysen Maddox

She looked around a bit more but for her she was truly getting more and more comfortable. She took a small second to tuck her hair behind her hair as she listened. Talking to people had never been her strong suit but she did hope that tonight that would change. She nodded as she heard David and took a minute. "Can I use your restroom a second I need to flush my face." Graysen MaddoxDecipher NottinghamDavid Lightfeather

"Oh yes I can show you," he said. "Be right back," he said. She seemed cautious which he understood and it seemed that David did too. Even being on this island could be a lot sometimes and he showed her the room to the left after a few steps. "No reason to be nervous but I get it, making friends can be hard."

"Okay David well that just leaves us, so how are you?" She was a good person to have conversation with and still she was going to try. "She is probably just a little nervous but nothing that she will not get over and if nothing else we should be friends because we have children. Hanging out is not as bad as one thinks."

That did leave Decipher and David. He knew Peyton would be fine as the evening drew on as he replied "I'm back at work and Ella still has to find a sleep cycle. So that's lacking as well but our daughter is so curious about everything and barely sleeps during the day". That was the current state of play. They shared the challenge of raising a daughter. That was true and was the case for all four of them. "Peyton is back at work too. I think she worries about Ella in day care but we're hearing good reports so far" he added. Parents should really hang out more and next time the babies could come too. David arranged the sitter for tonight to help Ella get used to other adults.

"Thank you," she said. It was honestly nice that someone would invite them over and be nice now she had not been out much so she did not have too much to compare it too but still she really did enjoy it. "I'll be back in like one minute I just need a minute." She was not going to run or anything like that which she thought was good. Graysen MaddoxDecipher NottinghamDavid Lightfeather

"No problem feel free to come back out and join us and look if Decipher is a little intimidating it's just because she has a hard time making friends and sometimes she can be very well honest and that is a lot for people to learn to take in but I promise you that she is not as big and as bad as she seems."

"I know when I first came to the island I was weary so I get where Peyton is coming from but the little bit that she shows of herself I can see why the two of you clicked. I can say I understand that might be hard to see with me and Graysen but we somehow make it work." She nodded as he continued on. "Daycare is fantastic, babies need that socialization more when they are that small than ever." David LightfeatherPeyton ColdstoneGraysen Maddox
