Chapter 4
Disclaimer: Aria and Piper Kurtzberg are the Oc's of Sunshine Story.
The Lila calling her kids "kits" either was my idea or Sunshine Story's. I forgot it, when it started, just know it was already there :P
A few months later after Lila had given labor to two girls, the girls were now a little bigger and could now crawl all around the house and play. Nathaniel and Lila Kurtzberg managed to take care of the twins through the growth and understand better, what they needed to feel better again.
Nathaniel had passed always beside an animal shelter every day he came from work and one day he stopped there and decided to adopt a kitten to surprise Lila and the kids.
At the manor of the Agreste's, Adrien walked at the door of the entrance and opened the door to meet there Nathaniel Kurtzberg holding on his hands a black kitten with white paws and chest.
"Good Afternoon Nate" Greeted Adrien. "What's with the kitten there?"
"Hi Adrien, well it was supposed to be part of the Kurtzberg family, but Lila just happened to develop an allergy to the kitten and I don't want to bring it back to the shelter and wanted to ask you if you wouldn't mind to keep him"
"Well Emma sort of has always wished to have a cat, so I guess he can stay here," Said Adrien picking the kitten up from Nathaniel's hands, then the kitten leaned his head on Adrien's shirt petting his head on there showing the blonde affection. "Aww he likes me," Adrien said pulling the kitten a bit closer to his face for a cuddle while listening to the kitten's purring.
"You can also give the kitten a name, we were supposed to call him Nero, but he's still young and can get used to a new one"
"Hmm," Said Adrien looking at his kitten. "I'm gonna name him Plagg. Like my previous kwami"
"Cute, I miss Duusu"
"Know how you feel" Replied Adrien. "He was the only one I could talk about every single thing I could not talk to Nino or my father"
"If Dusuu and Trixx weren't present at Ana trying to make me look like I was someone unfaithful, Lila and I wouldn't be married today or even have our own family"
"Who knows, maybe you two would have ended up together in another way"
"I don't know it"
"Well….hey you're still here, get in and have something to drink" Offered Adrien walking into the mansion towards the kitchen followed by the redhead. "I've got water, lemonade, juice, coke, and freshly pressed orange juice"
"Water is fine" Responded Nathaniel and Adrien took two glasses out and stuck them in the compartment of the door, then pressed the button holding it to fill the two glasses with water.
"There you go" Said Adrien handing Nathaniel the glass, then placed the kitten on the table and took a small cereal bowl out of the cupboards and filled it with a bit of milk for him to drink.
"Be careful with his diet" Said Nathaniel making Adrien laugh.
"Sure I am" Replied Adrien. "How are Piper and Aria doing?"
"They're alright, they've been teething the last couple of days. The teeth are growing now and we gave the two a gel the pharmacy suggested us to put on their gums while the teething."
"Oh yes I know that"
"The gel seems to help Aria more, than Piper. Piper still cries about the pain and usually causes Aria to cry too, which makes it more complicated again"
"Have you tried to massage their gums with a finger?" Asked Adrien. "Marinette's mother used to do that on Marinette and Emma with chamomile tea to alleviate the pain"
"Nope, we haven't" Responded Nathaniel. "I tell it Lila and try it together with her and see if it works"
"Sage tea also works too, according to the internet"
"Great thank you," Said Nathaniel.
"Great, that I could help"
"Yeah," Said Nathaniel looking around the kitchen, then remembered something. "Hey, how's Marinette doing now?" Asked Nathaniel making Adrien sigh.
"Marinette isn't the same person she used to be when she started to her own clothing line"
"Is it because at that time, she acted all weird during the dinner at my house?" Asked Nathaniel wondering, why Adrien is talking about it.
"No, it's more that we've been having a lot of arguments lately. We already don't see each other so often, because of the work and I just feel useless, when I have to stay at home looking for Emma the whole day when I could also be out there earning money."
"Why don't you tell Marinette you would like to work?"
"I did, but she says that I don't need to go work because we both still have enough money for the future and as long as her brand keeps making money we won't have any trouble"
"Oh okay," Nathaniel replied neutral looking at the blonde, then changed the topic as Adrien seemed like he wasn't really interested in continuing this conversation. "Where are your parents?" Asked Nathaniel. "I haven't seen them yet?"
"They went to Thailand" Responded Adrien. "They're both spending the time together and visit places, they always wanted to"
"That's great for them"
"Yeah, they deserve after all the situations we passed during mom's disappearance"
"Sure man" The redhead agreed with the former model finishing his drink. "Look I gotta go. I'm going to pass by the new Asian shop at the end of the road and see if they have tea"
"Sure it's fine and thanks for the kitten," Said Adrien looking at the kitten, which lied in front of the bowl taking a nap. "I organize later for the kitten any toys and other objects he needs like a sandbox"
"Great see you someday"
"Bye," Said the blonde waving at his friend, which left the house from the entrance he came before.
In the evening Lila sat together with Nathaniel inside their children's room. Nathaniel held the short haired brunette toddler in his arms, which was sobbing into her father's arms.
"You still got ouchie?" Asked Nathaniel at the toddler, which pouted at him gazing up at him with big wide eyes. "Piper listen you gotta open your mouth for daddy. Daddy's gonna do a special massage for your boo-boo to go away. Will you make this favor to daddy?" Asked the redhead earning a nod from the turquoise eyed girl. Nathaniel dipped his index finger into a teacup, then introduced it into the mouth of the girl passing it on the gum, rubbing it forward and backward, making the girl wrap his face and slap Nathaniel's hand away, starting to cry.
"Did daddy hurt you?" Asked Nathaniel looking upset at his daughter.
"Maybe you rubbed a bit too harsh," Said Lila picking up the redheaded toddler Aria and sat down next to him, dunking her forefinger in the tea and held it in front of Aria's face.
"Aria, say Ah to mama," Asked Lila and the toddler with the same green eyes as Lila opened her mouth and Lila placed her finger on Aria's gums, then rubbed it carefully with the liquid. Aria chuckled causing Lila to smile and keeping the slow movements on the gums of the redheaded girl.
"Great" Complimented Nathaniel dipping his finger into the liquid again, then held it in front of Piper making her frown. "Daddy Is going to do it slowly, like mommy" Nathaniel promised and Piper crossed her arms looking away from her father. "Come on Piper, I'll do it very slowly, if I hurt you, you can slap me again"
"Nathy give me Piper and you can handle Aria" Suggested Lila her husband, which then received from Lila Aria in his arms and Lila grabbed Piper from behind tickling her on the sides of her body, making her laugh.
"Mama Volpe is going to eat you! Yum! Yum! Yum!" Lila expressed playfully pressing her lips on the girls' face while making eating noises. Piper laughed enjoying her mother being silly, then Lila lied Piper on her arms petting her gently on Piper's forehead.
Aria chewed on Nathaniel's index finger, making him chuckle at the tickle it was causing him.
"You're tickling me little lady," Nathaniel said then observed his wife massaging Piper's gums, which the young girl didn't really enjoy it to 100%,. but didn't slap the mother away like before she did with her father. Nathaniel smiled at seeing Lila being all playful with the eldest twin. Nathaniel grabbed Aria and lied down on his back sharing kisses all over Aria's face, making her laugh. Lila got up from the ground with her laughing toddler, which yawned after having played with Lila and the mother gave Piper a peck on her nose.
Minutes later Lila and Nathaniel stood with their girls in their arms feeding them with a bottle of warm milk, which they happily drank. Lila smiled at seeing Piper in her arms enjoying the warmth of the drink, then rolled her eyes at her husband, which babbled at Aria baby talk, making Lila rolled her eyes amorously away from the redhead and lied the baby back into the cradle, seconds later followed by Nathaniel, which kissed Aria on the forehead, wishing her sweet dreams afterward he gazed at both daughters closing their eyes to attempting to rest, making both parents happy. Lila embraced her husband from the side, leaning her head on his cheek.
"You're doing such a great job Nathaniel" Whispered Lila. "I told you, you would be a great dad" Complimented Lila making Nathaniel blush sheepishly.
"Thank you," Said Nathaniel placing his arm around Lila's waist, followed by the woman kissing him on the lips.
"Nath, you know since the kits are sleeping, we could have some fun together" Suggested Lila looking flirty at her husband, which nodded at her idea.
"Good," Said Nathaniel and Lila jumped on his arms, shrieking him but he managed to hold her in his arms, then she placed her arms around him holding tight on him, after this, she got carried out of the room leaving the two toddlers sleeping in peace.
