Jamie grinned as he picked up his 2 day old daughter, wrapped up like a present and decided to wrap her up in one more layer before heading outside to show the guardians.
Yes he still believed.
Pippa was upstairs resting in their bedroom and he was on baby duty. He rested his daughters head on his shoulder before grasping for the door handle that led to the backyard and all the while shushing a babbling baby. He took a step out and took a deep breath in as he felt the cool air brush up against his face as he heard the soft click of the door locking behind him. He felt for the banister that led him down the 3 steps before stepping onto grass, his boots crushing the frost beneath him as he took a few steps forward.
"Jamie!" Jamie laughed slightly as he saw a bright red sleigh circle over his house, hearing the bells brought a grin to his face as he saw a flash of blue land on his backyard bench and the tell-tale chill that was brought with Jack Frost.
"Hi, Jack" Jamie laughed as he brought his daughter away from his face so he could see well. The sleigh landed with a hard thud and the occupants groaned while the Tooth fairy zipped out, heading straight for him. Jamie's eyes widened and he took a step back from the woman as she cooed at the blanket without even seeing it and hovering above him. Behind tooth Bunny groaned as he shook himself off and lay on the ground for a moment to gather him as north struggled to get out with a red sack in his hand as he side-toed out from his seat.
Jack came closer to the bundle and grinned as a hand appeared out from the blankets as it made gurgling noises. Jamie pulled a bit of blanket away from the baby's head so they could see her face. Tooth let out a long high pitched squeak at the adorable baby. Her cheeks were adorably rounded, and bright brown eyes stared out with a cheeky smile on her face, brown hair was sprayed around her head like a halo.
"Aw she's adorable Jamie! I'll have a perfect little tooth box made for her little teeth!" Tooth gasped in excitement and Jamie nodded in thanks as he turned to Jack who was making faces at the child. Bunny bounded over and looked at the little face a bright smile making its way on the tough guys face.
"Her name is Emma" Jamie murmured and Jack's face shot up looking at his best friend with wide eyes, mouth agape. North laughed merrily and slapped Jack on his back as he handed over the big red bag to Jamie. Jack grinned and blew a snowflake on the child's face and watched as her face screwed up and she blew a raspberry and looked to her dad with a confused expression on her face making them laugh, the baby joining them soon after.
"Jack, wan to hold you god-daughter?" Jamie asks with a kind smile on his face. Jack blew out air and nodded as he put his staff down and held out his hands for the baby. Tooth awed as she stared at the adorable picture of the baby stuck in-between his neck and shoulder as he had an awkward face. Emma shivered at the cold person held her and babbled as she let her hand come in contact with the boy's face and shrieking with delight as he snorted in surprise at having a baby smack him in the face and laugh about it.
Jamie chuckled as he took his child back, not bothering to fix her hat so her head was out in the open and she stared at North with big brown eyes. North grinned and bent down, letting a beefy finger come in contact with the baby's cheek making her laugh in delight and stop him with both her hands.
The baby yawned hard and Sandy grinned as he floated up a sprinkle of dream sand in his grasp and blew it gently into the girl's face. The baby yawned again before falling back against her father, who smiled.
Jack stared at the sleeping baby and blocked out the others and focused on the child, that was his god daughter. He would be there for her first Easter, Christmas, Birthday – you name it, he would take her out on Halloween and look after her until she would move on and have her own family. He stared until finally he was pulled away by the guardians and told to go home with North – where he was living now- He watched Jamie as he pulled his daughter close and walked into his home away from the cold.
Bunny nudges him as he sits on his toes, his fingers grasping his staff over his shoulder.
"Oi! Pay attention ya Gumby" Jack stuck his tongue out and listened to north on the journey home. All of the guardians feeling happy about the new life.
