A Child's Love
Wakes up before everyone else and finds the children around the Christmas tree. They are all looking at the presents and the lights, asking when would Santa be here... Good Morning Children. It looks pretty doesn't it. well, Santa is traveling from a long way away. A planet called Earth. He will be here day after tomorrow. Sitting down on the floor with the kids all around. Sev'ran crawls up in my lap and gives me a hug and a kiss on my cheek. "Good Morning Daddy" I smiled then immediately I got tackled by all the children.
Laughing and playing and tickling. Hey Kids I have a surprise for you. I heard voices from down the hall. Here comes Leo dragging Kira in tow and Devan tugging on Polly. I said you too. All of us are going to get to see what it looks like to have Christmas on earth. Later today we are all going to go up to my ship and go to the holodeck and see Christmas. But.. You all must promise to be very good little children and eat your veggies at lunch. And be nice to Shelly and Mira. You promise? They all excitedly said Yes we promise.
T'lana Smiles and sits down on the floor and hugging all the children. Sev'ran hugs and kisses my cheek, morning mommy. Ezri and Yanas said morning mommy hugs and kisses mt cant wait to see what daddy has for us on his ship.
I said, remember.. You promised to be good and play nice. All the children say we promise, we love you and mommy and everyone here. Ok, You go and play and share your toys in the nursery. Sev'ran, In a little while, I need to take you with T'lana and me. We are going to go and try to help the other children who need mommy's and daddy's. His eyes grow wide, are you going bring us another brother or sister daddy and mommy?
I wish we could but the house is pretty full right now. Maybe later mommy and me can make one. T'lana looks at you, You know what the doctor said honey. We love you all children. Now go and play for a while. I will be back later. Smiles now go and play for awhile and be nice to Mira and Shelly
Hi Kira, Polly want some coffee? Both say Gods yes.
We all gather in the kitchen. I noticed Kira strain to sit on the stool. Kira that lower back is still paining you? She nodded. I reached around and messaged the spot.
Kira said MMMMMMmmm. That helps. Noticing T'lana getting jealous, I said to Kira just get Odo to rub this way and then later put some warm moist heat, Maybe sit in the hot tub for a while and you should get better. T'lana chimed in to my link, Baby its ok to help our sister
Polly saw an opening to have some fun and faked being sore in her lower back. I didn't bite this time. I said you should be sore. How you do that sideways thing I will never know. Polly's mouth dropped open. I pointed to my head and said you forgot to delink from me yesterday. Made it real hard to concentrate. Poor Polly sat down at the counter and turned three shades of red. We all cracked up.
Laughs and gets up and walks over to the computer to leave a few messages for my old friends. Merry Christmas guys and thank you for all your help.
I kissed Polly on the top of her head. It's ok baby. I whispered. I kind of liked it.
She chimed into my mind. Any time you want me to show you just ask. I grinned wickedly. Thanks, I just might.. Polly gasped, I chimed back. Polly! you dirty minded girl.
Sipping on my coffee I dialed up a big dish of Danishes and placed them on the table. Everybody grabbed one. Snickering I asked want a plate?
Comes back in with a smiles on my face, You should see the children looking at pictures from earth customs about Christmas. They are so cute, We are so lucky to have a loving family.
There is another Christmas custom the parents enjoy that has nothing to do with sleep. What would that be honey, links to your mind. I thanked our friends for helping us in our time of need.
Chiming in her mind I give her a mini orgasm. Oh god you bratt ,wow
Snickering, I said well you did ask. Kira and Polly both noticed and were grinning wickedly. T'lana Laughs, I love you so much baby.
I looked out the window and said Kira, It looks like your new home is being placed in its new foundation. It won't be long and you will have your place back again. Kira got up and stood beside me and looked out the window. She said, Oh wow that's bigger than the last one. I kissed her on her cheek and said Merry Christmas.
My communicator chirped. I opened it and listened. I said, Thank you very much. You earned your bonus. When can you start on the other houses. Ok that sounds great. Thanks again for all your hard work. Polly, You're first up. Your home has been repaired. You will have to do some decorating but you can move in any time you want. Polly jumped into my arms and gave me a very passionate kiss. And then scurried off to her room to pack her things.
T'lana laughs, wow, hush mom let them have some fun. Watches the children so mom can see them being so happy.
Chiming in to T'lana, Honey please get Sev'ran and yourself dressed we need to go and do that public appearance for the children.
Ok baby, Sev'ran, come with me son we need to get ready to go. Mommy are you bringing brother back home? Yes children Ser'van is a member of this house and will remain so. We love you all Jar'don had the shuttle ready. The trip out to Ezri Park took only minuets. But what I saw when I flew over shocked me. Almost all of the burn marks have been repaired. The park was filled with people and they were smiling, waving, and cheering.
Holding our son in my lap, look sweetie so many people down there. Mommy you are not giving me away are you? Omgs no sweetheart you are our son and never will I or your father let you go. Your brother and sisters love you to much too. We landed on the pad recently installed on the edge of the park. When the door opened the roar of the crowd scared Sev'ran. He clinged to T'lana. I put my hand on his shoulder. It's alright son. That is the sound of happiness.
Sev'tan said that is the sound I heard just before the bombs fell. Sev'ran honey it is ok, We love you so much. Holding him so close, Jar'an links to you what should we do?
Sev'ran come here son I will protect you, and carry you. He climbed into my arms. I handed my shoulder holsters to Jar'don and he stowed them safely away in the shuttle. We walked out to happiness. The path was littered with flowers. The people were so happy to see me.
Hand in hand with my lovely wife and new son we walked the path down to the stage.
Then I saw something I never thought Id see. Four more federation shuttles landing next to mine. Climbing out and looking so sharp in their officers uniform. Captain Crusher leading the way. Many of the children gathered around got excited.
To my delight the crowd welcomed them as well. Looks at everyone and smiles, holding my husbands and son hand. See my love nothing to worry about. The cameras were rolling when Captain Crusher walked up on stage. The crowd got silent. Some became frightened and were looking up in the sky, wondering if the bombs will once again fall upon them.
I raised my arms to the people. Be at peace my brothers and sisters. No more harm will fall upon you. Captain Crusher is here with a message from Star Fleet.
Moving closer so the mic's can pick up her voice. She began to speak. High Minister. The Federation was glad to be of assistance to you and your world. But I am not here with any message, except maybe one from the heart. I was approached by the twenty five families here.
They requested that I represented them. They had fallen in love with your world and its people.
They each asked to adopt one of the children. I cried and hugged her. Children? Do you know whom you want as mommy and daddy? Many of them nodded. Then please go to them and receive the bond of love they offer.
Like floodgates in a dam they cheered and ran across the stage and into the waiting arms of their new parents. The crowd roared with applause and cheers. Folks this is the love that will heal our world.
I came here to ask for love. Here in this park of love. My prayers are answered. Yet one remains. Janel stood forth and said out loud for all to hear. She does not. I ask for that honor, I and my woman, Cereanna. If, you will allow us to be married. The crowd roared with cheers and threw flowers up on the stage.
They both walked up and knelt down. I was shocked. I chimed in to T'lana's mind I had no idea any of this was coming. T'lana ran across the stage and hugged her brother and kissed his new bride.
Smiles, we love you all so much. Everyone please welcome newly married couple my brother and his new wife.
I walked up and placed my hands on their heads. The crowd died down and T'lana stepped back. Do you Jan'el accept the bond of love this woman has offered to you from her heart. To protect defend and cherish it with all your heart? He said loudly, I do sir. Do you Cereanna accept the bond of love he has offered from his heart. To protect, defend, and cherish it with all your heart? She said, I do sir. Do you here and now accept the bond of love from this child. To protect it and cherish it? They both said we do. Then as in a chorus all the federation officers said we do to.
Then rise and show all of Trill your bond of love. The couple rose and kissed passionately. Their child ran across the stage into their arms and hugged them both so hard.
Smiles,hugs them and their new child. We are so happy and honored that another child has been adopted. I raised my hands again. My brothers and sisters of Trill. My brothers and sisters of the Federation. This day we send forth the seeds of love out into the Galaxy. May our children remember this day the day when friends opened their hearts and for a time became Trill. We love you all.
May Our Love and Joy now be your love and joy for all time. Hugs and kisses our son and turns and kisses my husband, I love you so much.
My brothers and sisters. Many more wait in the orphanages. Their hearts hopeful and thirsty for love. Please help give them a home. Let this day be known that we as a people united in the same love that founded this park went forth and opened our hearts to our children. Thank you all for coming. Enjoy your day.
Smiles honey lets take our son home he is sleepy. Jar'don led the way. I carried my son and he leaned his little head on my shoulder and went to sleep. Jar'don smiled. He said now you know what it means to be a daddy. That feeling that has no words. As we boarded our shuttle for the trip home Jar'don said sit back here with your family. I will drive.
Smiles poor little guy so tired and asleep in your arms. Dad what do you think about everything that is going on? Mom is so happy. Jar'don said I am happy to my daughter. You have grown so much in these past years. Still as lovely as ever. Just like your mom. Now buckle up. I have to drive now.
T'lana laughs, yes father, looking at Jar'an and our son, he will grow big and strong. Just like his father. I chimed in to their shared mind link, and said: and also just like his grandfather. Jar'don smiled. T'lana smiles and laughs, we have wonderful children. I love you.
