Yeah just a quick idea I had
I watch Dan as he cradles this little being in his arms. His skin perfectly white, not a flaw to be found. His tiny little fingers wrapped around Dan's as his big blue eyes stare up, endlessly fascinated by his new-found world. I move closer to Dan, wrapping my arm around his shoulder, dragging his eyes away from the baby as he turns to look at me, kissing me lightly on the lips before returning to the baby, a smile lighting up his face brighter than the stars themselves. He begins to hum as he rocks him in his big capable hands, protecting him from all harm, shielding him from the terrors of the world. He passes him to me, the blanket dragging across his knees slightly and I am filled with both a burning sensation of fear and love, I have no idea how I can love something that I've known for barely a week, but I do. Whenever I look into his eyes, my worries fly away and I am sure, even if just for a few seconds that we have done the right thing.
Thanks for reading :)
