(AN: Prompt from tumblr user frostbite883: "Can you make a prompt with Rachel & Kitty taking care of Scott & Maddie's baby, Nate (before he became Cable)? And can you make it a yuri story too?")

"He's adorable." Kitty bounced the boy in her arms. Little Nate flailed his chubby hands and grabbed onto the sleeve of her sweater. She looked up, grinning at Rachel only to find her friend sitting pensively, with her arms folded. "Hey...hey we talked about this."

The red-head shrugged her shoulder. "I know. It's still weird."

"Nothing's gonna happen! Sit." Kitty patted the cushion besides her with her free hand.

Rachel looked at the cushion, then at Kitty. Nate was chewing on a lock of her hair and it was perhaps the most adorable thing she'd ever seen. She gave in and sat down, sliding her arm around Kitty's waist. The other girl tensed, then leaned in against her. Rachel rested her cheek in Kitty's hair and tried to pretend it didn't smell wonderful. "Wasn't there an attack the last time you were alone?"

"I'm not alone, I've got you and Nate!" Nate wouldn't be useful in a fight, but Kitty knew that despite her reservations, Rachel would defend the baby with every ounce of her power. And then some. She casually slipped the baby over to Rachel's arms, amused at the redhead's mildly panicked look. "Look at him. He's comfy. He knows you're family, knows you're safe."

Rachel looked down at the little boy, swallowing hard. "He's kind of a reminder that nothing is the same here. Mom and dad aren't… going to have me. Dad doesn't even know who I am."

"He's still family. You're still family." She still thought Rachel should tell Scott who she was but that was an argument for another time.

Rachel smiled at Kitty, tearily. "I love you, you know. You're the only thing that keeps me sane. You help me get up in the morning."

Kitty's skin flushed, and she ducked her head. Rachel's hand wasn't on her back any more and she missed that feeling like burning. She rested her hand on the other girl's knee. "Ixnay onway ethay iway ovelay ouyay."

Rachel liked to think that no one would care, but she wasn't stupid. Even the X-Men weren't completely accepting and knew Kitty was still trying to accept herself. "We're alone. It's just us and Nate remember, we can let down our guard."

Kitty smiled, and then swiftly kissed Rachel on the cheek. "Yeah. I don't think he'd tell on us anyway." She tickled Nate's stomach and he squealed joyfully. "Not on his big sister!"

Smiling, Rachel tossed Nate into the air, catching him with her TK and flying him around the room. He put her arm back around Kitty and played with her hair. Her brother had the right idea, Kitty's hair was amazing. "Think he'll get any powers?"

Kitty watched Nate float around. The boy was having the time of his life though she was positive his parents would freak out if they saw this. "He's a Summers."

Nate floated back over and Rachel settled him back into her arms. "Here's hoping he's as normal as Maddie."

"Think we'd do okay as parents?"

Rachel's eyes went as wide as saucers. "Maybe in ten years!"

"I'll remember you said that."

"You're impossible."

The brunette leaned up and kissed Rachel again, this time on the corner of her lips. She teased, "You love it."

Nate grabbed onto some of Kitty's hair again and resumed his chewing. The red-head smiled fondly at them. "Yeah. I guess I do."
