Chapter 1

Charlotte, post makeover but pre-crash xD. Her hair changes after this. I didn't change her face at all. She's quite pretty considering the nose lol.
  
So, as per the usual sims fashion, my game decided to have spazz with bridgeport. I managed to load the game up and save the family + Items, but lost Romeo's WA quest lines :(
I decided to move them to Twinbrook as I recently fell back in love with the town after seeing beautiful screens on the Simblr Tumblr tag :)

Chapter 1 - Relocation!

Romeo and Charlotte, after becoming monogamous with each other, proceeded to do what sims do best, and woohoo till the cows came home. Baby chimes were heard! And it wasn't long till the first signs began to torment our poor french beauty. Charlotte Dubois is a Heavy Sleeping, Friendly Bookworm, with a serious case of the Couch Potato. She also shares her love of Computer Whizing with Romeo. She enjoys French Music, seeing as she is from France, the colour Orange and Key Lime Pie, which is something this Watcher has never ever tried.

Her poor belly. I remember my own morning sickness. I chalked it up to the flu...for 10 weeks. Silly Watcher Chry. But, I sympathize with her I watched on in silent glee as she emptied her tummy into the self-flushing loo.

  Shoulda been self-cleaning.

It wasn't long after this that Romeo had run into some trouble at work. Apparently, on one of his missions, he was outed as a Spy and charged with grave consecration. According to Egyptian law, you can't remove a relic from a pyramid. 



Romeo was only doing what he was told. If anyone should be punished, it should be his agency. They tasked him with finding relics, not the other way round. Unfortunately, Romeo had to poke his nose inside a sarcophagus. It would turn around and bite him square in the butt. 



When people say don't wake the dead, they're not just making conversation. There is a reason you don't wake up an ancient Pharaoh...because they get hella pissed. Poor Romeo got his tooshie acquainted with the foot of royalty. His pride, as well as his backside was quite hurt in the ordeal, and he felt a little funny afterwards. Almost like a feeling of foreboding.


Having been chained to his desk at work, made Romeo decide to relocate his growing family to a quieter, much safer neighbourhood, so that a repeat of his Egyptian fiasco wouldn't be repeated. He effectively retired himself from future trips abroad, at least for mission related trips. No one said he couldn't take his family on holiday. His request for a transfer came through a couple of days later, and he picked up Charlotte, and her unborn child, which neither of them knew about, and plopped them down in Twinbrook. 

 Eerie...

Their new home was rather old, having survived for countless years in the Twinbrook swamp. Romeo had decided this would be the prefect family home as there was plenty of space. He also had plans to create a Nectar cellar as his soon-to-be wife was quite proficient in the art of Nectar making.


First order of business after arriving at a new home. Play a game of Chess...and have your Fiancé beat you hands down!


Second order of business...have said FiancĂ© announce she is expecting your child. The shock of which was probably right on par with a previous shock he'd already encountered. 


Still, Fatherhood was an unexpected, but delightful challenge for Romeo and he was more than up to the task. As Charlotte's belly grew, he had to pull extra shifts at work, often taking up the slack at the local police department. Twinbrook was a small town, but its criminal activity was getting out of hand, so the Senior Sergeant was grateful for the extra help. The only person who didn't seem happy with the arrangement was Charlotte. She looked down her nose at Romeo every time he slept in her rocking chair...which I had to then remove.


Seriously...Charlotte had a problem. She sat outside, in the middle of winter, in that damn rocking chair, for hours! Her hunger bar was stupidly low, and she almost pee'd herself. So, when she stood up, I stashed the chair in the family inventory.


I haven't played in Twinbrook since Generations, so I didn't know that the giant lake in the middle froze over in winter. GIANT SKATING RINK!


Awww come on! You're the only sim I can control, and the second I look to see what your pregnant missus is up too, you go and do that... I feel betrayed Romeo...Betrayed. How could you disappoint the Watcher!


-5 points to the Watcher *sigh*
So, the day before Miss Charlotte was due to give birth, they both rolled the wish to get married. Charlotte also rolled the wish to get married to Romeo, so an easy 10,000 happiness points to Charlotte! I didn't get them married straight away though. Instead, I just made Romeo propose in his Spy get up, because he is handsome!


I feel like he needs a makeover at some point...He is due to age up soon...Might give him a Vandyke...
Charlotte, seeing the giant diamond, immediately said yes, of course, in her condition and with the money he makes, she'd be stupid to say no. Not long after this, Charlotte became somewhat vexed...


Oh...Yup. I see why now. Baby time. PUSH, CHARLOTTE! PUSH!
Just ignore Romeo, he's a man, he don't know the pain we have to go through. They never understand. But its ok, the pain will be over once you give that last final push.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG! My Super Spy Training didn't cover this. I have no idea what to do!

Don't worry Romeo, you can take her to the hospital. Or...well, she can take you to the hospital. For some reason, she drove. While in Labour. In a Blizzard.


I will never understand the ways of the Sims. It took me 10 minutes to walk from the car park to the maternity ward at the hospital and it was barely 100 meters. There was no way I was going to be able to drive. But Charlotte apparently stops having contractions, can change into her outerwear and then drive herself to the hospital. If only...


Every body meet my +5 points...err...I mean...Gaston Rake. Beautiful baby boy of Romeo and Charlotte. I was able to choose both his traits, so I randomly rolled Slob and Grumpy. Gaston loves Spaghetti, the colour Lime and Country Music.


While mummy took a very well deserved rest, Romeo was left with the daddy duties, which he was very happy to do. He snuggled that baby till it couldn't be snuggled anymore. He almost constantly rolled the Snuggle wish lol. He was also able to feed his little bundle of blue.


Awww...Nooboo. 
So...that's it for this chapter. Just wait for the next chapter. We get ourselves in the red!
