When Mama's Right, She's Right

So me and Hoyt. How 'bout that. You know what I keep askin' myself?

What would it look like?

We can't get married. Not legally, at least. I mean, we could go to Vermont, but it doesn't really mean anything anywhere else and I don't want to live in Vermont. Can't have kids. Maxine so kindly reminded me of that the first time we met. So I guess it'd just be us. Me and Hoyt. Hoyt and me. Maybe we could combine our last names. The Hambenberrys. Or the Fortenbys. I don't know if I could introduce myself to anyone as Jessica Hambenberry without crackin' up. And Fortenby doesn't sound too good neither. And our bed! Bed is important, right? Everybody has their "side." Maybe Hoyt'd be on the left, the right side could be mine. He could have his comics on the nightstand. And some gummy bears, he likes to munch on those when he can't sleep sometimes... This all, of course, could only work if our bed was in a cubby and Hoyt somehow became nocturnal. I wonder how I could convince him of that?

The truth is, I don't know what it would look like. And that's half of what I love about bein' with Hoyt. And the other half? Well, that’s private :)

My mama once said that people will always surprise you. I didn't know what she meant, or maybe I didn't believe it. People in my life, back when I was human, were oh so predictable. But Hoyt? When I told him the truth about me? When I unzipped my outsides and let him take a peek inside, so he could see there's almost nothin’ else there besides V and some old-fashioned female insecurity, he surprised the hell outta me. Hoyt Fortenberry, I dare say you proved my mama right.

Aw well, never thought you two'd be back together. But hey, you two sure are cute again :) I'm glad he accepts you for who you are. Besides, watch out.... SUMMER IS WORKING FOR HOYTS MOM!!! that crazy fruitcake.... yeah.

Lol the Hambenberrys... That name would certainly stick where ever you went :D Now that you're back together... stay that way. please?

Why not Hamberry? More aesthetic and actually means something. ;)

Aww, Jessica you Hoyt are so cute, and screw Maxine that hateful old bag! Summer is just like her full of hate, probably why she employed Summer to steal Hoyt from you. But screw them you guys are awesome and there are ways around the baby thing, adoption, or you could save your little sister from your hellish father, and maybe when she's older IVF, if she wanted... And you know as long as you and Hoyt love each other that's all that really matters =^___^=

Awesome post Jess. Keep it up! I love reading your blog every monday. You are going to be the best vamp EVER!

damn i cannot believe that this season is almost over. Im so happy you are back with Hoyt. Tommy is a bit too wild, and i think that deep down you are still a good girl besides the vampire tendencies lol. I think you are doing really well for yourself.

Hmmm... maybe you can just rearrange the letters in both of your names to come up with a whole new last name.... lets see...

H.A.M.B.Y.F.O.R.T.E.N.B.E.R.R.Y Ambry, Rothenberry,

Omg you can have Roth, like David Lee Roth. thats a cool last name.

Hi Jess !

You're the hell of a girl !
I wish you the best, and most of all, a lot of love between you and your Hoyt.
Just keep posting on your blog.
Big kisses from France,

I'm waiting for our very first "Hoyt is MAHN!"

Ok Jess! maybe Hoyt would be the best choice for your "life" but I think it isn't the same for your new "life from dead". He understands and accepts your dark side but he will never be in real contact with this and until you find who can touch you deep inside you'll never be happy.

^^Your Forever CLeo^^

I know you don't wanna move but that might be the safest thing for you to do. Maxine is nuts. So unless you want to face the true death take Hoyt and get out of Bon Temps.
