"Well...um... not my whole life..."  She doesn't want to lie to Brian, but she's afraid the truth might send him over the edge.  She had spent her childhood with her parents, but that had been before cars or even trains existed.  Deciding to stay vague, she continues.  "I lived with my parents for some time... but when I was still pretty young they... sent me here.  They thought it'd be safer for me.  And in all likelihood it has been.  Please don't apologize... most people that I ever talk with either know all about me or don't care... It's kinda sweet to be able to just talk with someone.  That's part of why I liked you in the first place...."<br/><br/>Liz was just starting to doze when she felt a familiar pressure building inside her.  Groaning at the bad timing, she straightens up a bit and places her hands on her belly.  She watches as her fingers get spread apart and the nightgown grows tight across the globe of skin.  Why is this one being so much faster?  It's not that she doesn't appreciate it, it just seems a little strange.  Well, she'll have something else to show Brian in the morning, other than her new abilities.  As the pressure slows, she finds herself falling asleep once more, her hands still folded atop her belly.
