Duke looked down at the newborn in his arms. Nosedive was looking over his shoulder, staring at the baby. Mallory rolled her eyes at them both, Tanya just giggled. Wildwing looked over at the new member of the team, smiling to himself. Grin was meditating with earplugs in his ears. Nobody really knew if he knew that the baby was born. But nobody was paying attention.
"Can I please hold him?", Nosedive begged.
"No.", Duke and Wildwing said together.
"Mal...please.", Dive whined.
"Not until I get to hold him!", Mallory growled.
"Oh! Sorry! Here you go.", Duke said, placing the baby into Mallory's arms.
"Thank you!", she said, sending her husband a glare. She then smiled down at her son. Now the only thing left was to name him. She had a few choices, but wasn't too sure about them. Her son had grey feathers like his father, and oddly enough, he had a mixture of black and red hair. Mallory smiled to herself. 'Well...looks like Jessa had a hand in on this kid too.' Mallory laughed.
Soon the others left, leaving Duke and Mallory alone to rest. Duke was now sitting on the bed, looking at his son.
"I wonder where the hair came from?", he told Mallory.
"I know.", Mallory snickered.
"Then where?"
"Jessa.", she said, smiling at him.
"Your sister had black hair?", Duke asked, placing an arm around her shoulders.
"Yeah. She did. But hey! He also has my hair color too!", Mal laughed.
"We still have to name him.", he reminded.
"Well, what do you think about Jacob?", she asked.
"I like that. Jacob it is.", Duke said, kissing Mallory on the forehead.
