Cain fell over under the surprise attack by the house elf. "Hello Pip, How are you" he said to the elderly house elf "Of course I remember where home is, it is the only place I ever actually felt at home." he said to her. "I doubt I would ever forget it." he said "Who is that?" he asked seeing the small head pop out behind Ebony's legs

"very well Master Rivers. Pip cannot believe you are back!" He hugged Cain around the neck almost strangling him. Ebony smiled softly. "It will always be your home. Oh..." Ebony looked down at the blonde head which his behind her again. "Um..Cain, this is my son, Newt." She ushered him infront of her and said, "Newt honey, this is my friend Cain."

Cain looked at the boy as he was chocked by Pip, "I am glad to see you too pip." he said as he looked up at Ebony, then back down at newt. "It is nice to meet you newt." he said as he attempted to stand but was still restrained by an overzealous Pip, "I am glad that you had someone in your life besides me." he said assuming that she had been pregnant and had a kid. He smiled at her, "How bout you let me up pip" he said to him.

Newt looked up at him shyly. He never dealt well with new people. Pip slowly let go of Cain as Ebony's eyes widened. "Oh Cain. No, it's not like that." she started. "You see. Newt is my son...not biological. He's adopted." Ebony rushed to explain not wanting Cain to ever think she had loved anyone enough to have children with them.

Cain opened his mouth as she told him, his heart leaped a little when he realized what she had said, "Oh" was all he can mouth as he stood, looking down at pip, "Thank you" he said. He walked towards Ebony and knelt down to look the boy in the eyes, "It is nice to meet you Newt" he said extending a hand towards the boy, He hoped that the boy would shake his hand at least, he didn't want Newt to be afraid of him. not if he was going to be living here again. at least he hoped he was going to be living here.

Newt blinked a few times, his floppy blonde fringe falling into his eyes He shook Cain's hand saying quietly. "it's nice to meet you sir." It was long before his attention had changed to chasing after Ebony, the puppy, who was off around the house.

Cain watched him go, "I am sorry that I thought you had him while I was....Gone" he said for lack of better words. he stood up and faced Ebony, "I am sorry that I didn't remember things sooner." he said to her, "And I regret leaving in the first place." he said to her as he looked at her. "I still have feelings for you but I don't know if you will have them for me anymore" he said as a sad look crept across his face, he wanted to find the person who had torn his life apart and kill him.

Pip scampered off singing some weird old elf song. Ebony shook her head, "o I never. I couldn't... It wouldn't..no." she stuttered and finished lamely. Had he honestly thought he was that easy to get over. Ebony looked at him. "Cain I still love you. So so much. But things have changed. It's...complicated."

"I understand" he said to her as he looked at her, "May I come in at least?" he asked her as he looked at her, "Maybe we can make sense of some things today" he said to her, His heart still felt shattered but he knew that at least she still loved him, maybe one day things would go back to what they were like."I hope that we can resolve just a little of what has happened while I was dead to the world." he said as he closed his eyes, he had a mountain of memories to sift through and he was not enjoying a minute of it, they were all jumbled and knotted up in his heads bits and peices just floating in a pile.

Ebony moved into the house letting him come in. "There is a lot to sort out and granted it will not be done in one evening." she said wlaking into the living room. It had not changed. Picture of their wedding and travels hung on the walls and on the mantlepiece. Picture of Newt had joined them as well. "i have pensieves if you can't remember clearly."

Cain looked at her, "I would appreciate a pensieve, everything is just a jumble." he said to her, "parts of a wedding mixed in with a trip to Bulgaria." he said, "Things more personal mixed with trips to a market." he said to her hoping she would understand. "I know things won't get worked out in one night, I just want to find out where we stand tonight" he said to her as he sighed. "I hate this probably more then you do right now." he said under his breath hoping that she wouldn't hear

"The living room is not the place if you want a pensieve. Upstairs we go." Ebony changed course up the stairs. She walked into the bedroom listening to Cain but she didn't rply to anythng he said. She went into thewardrobe searching for the pensieve. The bedroom had not changed at all. Everything of Cain had been left as it had been six years ago. Tghings genrally tidy and in the order he'd left it all.

Cain looked at the bedroom and his mind flooded with memories of it all. He groaned as he sagged against the door frame, "I want this to end." he said as the memories departed again, he stood straight again and walked into the bedroom, "The flood of memories is unbearable." he said aloud as he looked at her, "I am glad that you are here though." he said to her as he watched her.

Wbony eventually pulled out a stone bowl and looked at him slightly worried. "Are you ok?" she asked. "Look if you'd rather not do this right now I understand. I mean. We can leave it until you get used to things again." Ebony wanted to make sure he was alright with everything.

"I can't take the memories doing what they have been doing today" he said rubbing a temple, "They cascade over my mind like a waterfall. Every time I enter a room that holds memories they all come tumbling." he said as he looked at her, "I want to get them sorted before it Knocks me out." he said to her.
