A/N: YO! I'm back! Ta da! Hope you all liked the end to Symmetrical Devotion, and welcome back to the Symmetrical Saga! I don't know where the inspiration came from for this. It kinda just hit me in the face like a door that I walked into on purpose.

Maka sat, curled up in the fetal position on the floor of her and Kid's bedroom, sobbing incessantly, when Kid walked into the room.

"Maka?" The teen asked hurriedly, dropping the shopping bags on the floor, not noticing the items that spilled out for it as he raced over to be by her side.

"What's wrong, where is Kay?" He asked, picking her up and putting her on the bed. She only shook her head and tried to wipe the tears from her eyes.

"She's okay, she's with Liz at the moment," said a voice from behind the couple. Kid whipped his head around to face Soul.

"What's happened? What did I miss? I was only gone for a few minutes!" the shinigami demanded.

"I don't know, but Kaya wouldn't stop crying, and Maka just sort of…" the white-haired teen paused, looking over at his meister.

"Broke down?" Kid finished for him, and he nodded. Maka, who had stopped sobbing, lay still, eyes still watering madly.

"Yeah. So Liz took over for a while. Kaya was just a bit tired and grizzly (a/n: always wanted to use that word xD), but Maka was extremely tired and couldn't deal with it at the time."

"Taking a leaf out of Crona's book, huh?" Kid grinned for a moment, before turning back to his fiancée, and sitting down next to her on the bed. Soul took that as his cue to leave.

Maka lay still, and Kid pulled her head up to rest on his leg, stroking her hair gently. She was quiet for a moment, then spoke.

"I'm useless," she said, more tears spilling out of her green gem-like eyes. Kid shook his head.

"No, you aren't. You're a new mother, this happens sometimes," he said, and it was her turn to disagree.

"I'm useless, I'm going to be a horrible mama. She'll grow up hating me," Maka insisted. Kid pushed her gently off of his lap, stood up, and walked out of the room, allowing his feet to fall to the floor loudly as a sign of annoyance. She sat up, confused about where he was going, and her tears stopped. She stared at the door curiously for a few moments, before Kid re-entered, holding a tightly-wrapped bundle that Maka associated with her daughter.

She could only watch as he walked in, and placed Kaya down on Maka's lap. Her arms automatically reached out to stabilize her daughter, to stop her from falling, and she ended up cradling the baby to her chest.

She looked up to see Kid smiling at her gently, as if she'd just proven his point.

"See, even that simple, natural reaction shows that you aren't useless. And just look at her, she's happy to be with you, see?" It was true. The two-month old baby was already showing signs of recognition, her little green eyes mirroring Maka's as they gazed at each other.

Maka let out another, choking sob, and clutched the baby tighter to her chest. Kid is right, as always, she thought, as her little baby girl watched her mama's face with interest. She does seem happy to be with me. But I was happy to be with Papa, and he ruined everything…

She settled more comfortably on the bed, cuddling Kaya, and Kid sat next to her, smoothing out the baby's black locks that had stuck up at odd angles.

"She's growing quickly already," he murmured, and she nodded in agreement. Neither of them cared that she was only just about the size that a normal baby would be at birth. That would be compensated for later, as she would have a hard time catching illnesses later in life.

"Are you okay now?" Kid asked gently, and she nodded.

"Good, because I left Grandpa in the living room, he's waiting to see Kaya," he said, and Maka turned to face him, wide-eyed.

"YOU LEFT HIM DOWN THERE? Why didn't you say something? Oh, that seems so rude, I'll go and-" Maka was cut off as Kid grabbed her shoulder gently, pulling her back from where she had leapt to in her haste. Taking care not to knock Kaya out of her arms, he kissed her softly, conveying as much emotion as he could into that action.

"Thank you," she whispered quietly as they broke apart, and she handed Kaya to him, racing downstairs to offer some tea or coffee to his father.

He walked down the stairs at a much slower rate, making sure that Kaya was okay. She looked up at him happily, and, as he reached the bottom of the stairs, he gently brushed some of her hair out of her face. She took the opportunity to latch onto the knuckle of his thumb, and he laughed.

"Hungry, huh?" he grinned at her, as he carried her into the living room.

"AH! There she is!"

Kid looked up as his father bounced over to them as quickly as possible, taking the tiny girl into the palm of his huge hand. Kid rolled his eyes.

"Hello to you too, father," he said sarcastically, and his father patted him on the head.

"Hiya, hello, Kiddo! Wassup?"

"Father, watch out-" He couldn't even get the words out before Maka took Kaya into her own hands. The teens exchanged a quick, humorous glance as Shinigami-sama appeared to deflate.

"She needs feeding, anyway," Kid said, sitting down in the middle of the sofa. His father took the seat opposite from him. They sat in awkward silence for a long time, only sharing minimal small talk. That was, until his father remembered.

"Oh, yeah, I brought something!" Shinigami-sama clapped his hands as he remembered. Kid sighed.

"Ta-da! An Easy-Bake oven for kids!" the shinigami produced a large box from out of nowhere. The teen rolled his eyes. His father expected Kaya to grow up really quickly, she was only two months old, not five. Last week it had been a trampoline, which had turned out to be great fun for Patti, Black*Star, and Arrow.

"Thank you, father. But you know she can't use that for another five years," he said. His father always seemed to enjoy ignoring important facts like that.

"Oh well, she'll grow up before you know it. You did."

Kid looked up at his fiancée and his tiny little daughter, seriously doubting that she would grow up so quickly.

He had no idea how fast she would grow.

A/N: Yeahhh I know. Lame ending.
Also, for those of you who have read my other stories, and/or sweetshearts' stories, you'll know about Princess Sparkles.

Princess Sparkles is a story book that all kids seem to love and all parents seem to hate. It's an extremely lame childrens' book invented by Sweetsheart and I. We will be writing the story of it shortly. And it will be seen in this story. Keep an eye out for it ;)

Love to all of my fans, especially those who review =]
