Sorry it has been so long! School has taken up most of my time. I literally wrote this at 3am. Contemplating making this into smaller chapters, tidbits of milestones. Anyway enjoy! I own nothing besides grammar mistakes!
Lucille Iris Belladonna-Xiao Long, amber eyes, button nose, puffs of blonde hair, and golden fuzzy cat ears on top of her head. At six months old she was quite adventurous, teething on her toys, sitting upright, and able to speak a few words. Currently she was doing tummy time with her momma. It was one of her favorite things to do because momma would do it with her!
Little babbles and grumbles left the little baby's mouth as she picked her head up from her baby mat, looking around the living room. Lilac eyes watched in fascination at the child's movements. The blonde haired woman was laid out just like her child, on her stomach resting her head on her crossed arms.
Yang smiled as Lucy grunted with effort in trying to crawl, the baby grew frustrated and let out a whimper. She reached out a hand and carefully rubbed a gentle hand on a baby's back to sooth her cries.
"It's ok, you're almost there." Yang encouraged softly, earning murmurs in response.
She leaned forward slightly to place a kiss to blonde puffs of hair, the little cat ears twitched happily.
"How about a break little one?" Yang asked as she sat up, picking up her child.
The baby let out a long yawn before snuggling into her momma's chest, holding onto her shirt. Yang beamed as she placed another kiss to the baby's head before walking down the hall and into the bedroom. The baby let out a happy coo as she saw her other mommy currently sleeping in the large bed, she made grabby hands at the woman in the bed. Yang laughed as she gently set the eager child on the bed next to Blake. Lucy sat on her little butt as she reached out her hands to poke and grasp at Blake's sleeping face.
Blake scrunched her face slightly as a sleepy groan escaped her lips, her cat ears twitched lazily. Happy gurgles and murmurs drew her attention as she opened her eyes to see Lucy in front of her. Blake smiled lazily as she reached forward, bringing the baby to her chest letting out a content purr. Yang smiled as she laid down across from the brunette, contently watching mother and daughter.
"We took a break from tummy time, she was so close to crawling." Yang informed with pride.
Blake placed a kiss to downy little cat ears, looking up at Yang with a smile. She reached out a hand, bringing the blonde down for a kiss. Yang smiled happily throughout the kiss, Blake hummed in content. They separated, resting their foreheads together. Yang then placed several kisses to the brunette's cheeks and her lips. A small hand reached out a patted Blake on the cheek drawing her attention down to Lucy who looked at her expectantly. A notable whine and a loud grumble came from the baby.
"Someone's hungry." Yang laughed.
"Okay, little one. Just a second." Blake let out a little laugh as Lucy began clutching at her shirt.
Blake got herself situated leaned up against the headboard. Yang got up and grabbed the baby towel from the changing table, placing it on Blake's shoulder before sitting next to her again.
"Maybe later this week we can start getting her used to formula." Yang supposed.
Blake nodded in agreement as she leaned her head on Yang's shoulder, Lucy happily kicking her little feet as she breastfed. Yang laughed and tickled the little foot closest to her. After a few more minutes of feeding, Lucy was satisfied, and Blake was able to burp her easily. Yang then took the child over to the changing table, taking the little bundle of joy out of her purple onesie, giving her a fresh diaper, then putting her into a white and pink striped onesie.
"Good as new my little Lulu." Yang said happily as she held the baby up.
Blake smiled as she slowly got out of bed, adjusting her loose shirt then stretching her arms in front of her. She grabbed a yellow flannel from Yang's side of the closet, buttoning it up slightly. She smiled as Yang smothered Lucy in kisses, happy squeals echoed in the room.
Yang had placed Lucy in the middle of the bed, the little girl sitting on her butt surrounded by pillows and the plush blankets. Yang leaned down, blowing gently on little cat ears earning uncoordinated twitching and babbles of "Ma…ma…ma"
"Yang don't tease her." Blake scolded swatting the blondes shoulder.
"It's not teasing if she likes it."
"You're teaching her bad habits."
A dramatic gasp, hand over her heart, "How dare you! I am a wonderful influence thank you very much." Yang spoke factually.
Blake rolled her eyes, "I want our daughter to be well behaved, unlike her momma."
Meanwhile, Lucy went from sitting on the bed to laying on her tummy, moving her head around and watching her mommy and momma. She made little grunts as she sat up slightly, grasping at the blankets using it as leverage.
"You love it when I'm uncivilized, keeps life interesting."
"We are banned from four local stores in the area because of you."
"I raised awareness of their false advertising."
Blake sighed shaking her head. She cast a glance at Lucy, amber eyes widening in awe. "Yang." She whispered cautiously.
"And really, I was doing it in good faith, those places were blatantly cheating their customers…"
"Yang."
"And don't even get me started on their slogan! 'Fresh checked every day.' More like fresh checked every other month…"
"Yang."
"'If we don't sell it, you won't need it.' What kind of store deliberately refuses to sell stuff? What kind of business is that?"
"Yang!"
Blake swiftly brought a hand up covering the blondes mouth as she pointed to Lucy. Both parents watched as Lucy hesitantly crawled on the bed, arms wobbly. Grunts of effort and face contorted in concentration. After a minute of crawling she fell forward onto a plush pillow as she looked up at her mommy and momma with joyful smiles and giggles.
Yang smiled as tears of pride formed in her eyes, Blake quickly scooped up the baby into her arms placing several kisses to her face.
"We are so proud of you Lucy!" Blake said happily as Yang brought them both into her strong arms.
Lucy snuggled into her mommy's chest, as Yang reached out to rub her back.
"Before you know it, she'll be off to college."
Blake chuckled softly as she leaned back into the blondes chest, "Baby steps Yang."
Both mothers continued to coo and express their joy and pride for Lucy's accomplished milestone. The little family simply content to enjoy the moment. In their own bubble of unconditional love and bliss, the outside world could wait.
What it's like to be a parent: It's one of the hardest things you'll ever do but in exchange it teaches you the meaning of unconditional love. – Nicholas Sparks
