A New Beginning: Ch.2, Uncle Duties
"Okay, so let me get this straight. You're on Coruscant?"
"Yes."
"And your sister finally gave birth?"
"That sounds pretty harsh, Tenel."
"Yeah, yeah, I know. But all those months of coaching and eating for two and pregnancy scans and morning sickness takes a toll on even the person helping the pregnant balloon. Plus, she was huge!"
"Well, they're twins."
Tenel Ka sighed on the other end of the comm unit Jacen had borrowed from his parents. "Okay. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. You want me to call Tahiri and Raynar?"
"Could you? I kind've have my hands full." Jacen had the reciever perched between his cheek and shoulder, and both of his hands were busy trying to hold a wet, squirming Anakin down on the changeing table.
"Yeah, I kinda guessed. It sounds like you're battling a ronto in there!"
"I guess you could say changeing a diaper is pretty close to that, especially with this one."
Tenel Ka laughed. "Boy or girl?"
"Boy. Jaya already dressed Analiah for the ceremony."
Tenel Ka winced. "Just remember to cover him with a cloth. They spray."
"Yeah, yeah okay."
"Well, I'll go pick up the happy couple on Mon Calamari, then I'll be headed you're way."
"Can't wait."
"That better not have been sarcastic. I have a surprise for you when I get there and if you're not carefull you wont' get it."
"Is it pie? Cause I could really go for some nice, hot, juicy apple pie right now."
Tenel Ka laughed again. "No, but I'm sure Jaina knows to have some ready at the ceremony."
"Yeah, but that's in five hours!" Jacen moaned as he reached for the baby wipes with the force. Anakin was putting up quite a fight. "I can't wait that long!"
"You're just going to have to wait. I'll see you in a couple hours."
"All right. Love you."
"You too, hon."
Jacen clicked the comm off and sighed. He really wanted some apple pie right now! He hoped Valin hadn't stole any yet.
He turned to put the reciever on the unit stand, takeing his hands off of Anakin for maybe three seconds. Something warm and wet hit him in the back. He whipped around and the jet hit him square in the chest.
"Aww, man. . . jeez, come on, Anni!"
His nephew just looked at him, something that looked a lot like Jaina-ish triumph glinting in his grey-green eyes.
Jacen sighed and pulled off his now sopping tshirt, then looked at the squealing baby on the changeing table, laughing and pulling at his toes.
"Yeah, now I'm one hundred percent sure you're my sister's kid."
