Laxus could do no more than to stare down in awe at the small bundle cradled in the palm of his hands. His little dragon was finally here and in his arms. The small life he and Lucy had created, made entirely from their undying love for one another, was nothing less then perfect in his eyes.
She was beautiful.
She was the spiting imagine of her mother and Laxus could not have been more prouder.
His heart clenched as her tiny little mouth opened up in a yawn, blurry dark blue eyes opening to stare up at him sleepy, her long dark lashes fluttering against her cheeks with each sleepy blink she gave him.
He had once though that the love he felt for his mate was unmatched by anything, never to find anything of equal value to love just as strongly.
He was wrong.
The amount of pure love he felt for this little being that wasn't any older than an hour old hit him just as strongly, if not more.
This was his daughter.
His little dragon.
Laxus didn't care to wipe at the tears in his eyes, not wishing to disturb his precious cargo as she fell back into slumber, not caring that nurses and doctors saw his tears and smiled at him as they came and went.
"She's absolutely perfect." Lucy's hoarse voice broke through the spell their little man had managed to ensnare her father in, tears falling as she watched the two. "So, so perfect, Laxus."
Standing up slowly, he made his way over to her bed, sitting down beside her and handing over their baby with the just the slightest bit of reluctance.
He hadn't wanted to let her go. He wanted to stay holding her for days and marvel at her.
But the sight of Lucy gingerly holding their daughter, tenderly kissing her forehead made it all the better as the baby woke to place a hand on her mothers still flushed cheeks.
The sight of his two girls, his greatest treasures in the world, so close together brought warmth to his heart that left him feeling like he was on cloud nine. Now that was a sight he could stare at for hours. How he wished he had time magic so that he could freeze the world at this moment and forever gaze upon the two like this.
"Hello!" A young red headed nurse spoke as she entered the room, fiddling with Lucy's heart monitor and taking her blood pressure. "Congratulations on the new baby! She's very beautiful. I'm here for one of two thing. Up first, is this little cuties name." She said pulling out a slip of paper from the clipboard she carried.
Laxus and Lucy shared a look before turning to gaze down at their baby.
They spoke simultaneously, "Nadiya Layrene Dreyar."
The nurse smiled at them, taking in the beautiful family and the love so obviously displayed.
"That's a wonderful name." She said writing it down on the birth certificate. Once down she placed it on the table beside the parents to be signed for later. "And for my second order of business." She said, waking over to the large closed shades blocking the outside hallways view. "What are we going to do about them?"
With a snap of the wrist she pulled the string, the shades shooting up to reveal the entirety of Fairy Tail.
Once the others realized the shades have been pulled up their faces were squashed against the window as everyone tried to get a look at the newest dragon.
Lucy laughed as Makarov's face was practically pushed flat against the window, large fat tears rolling from the mans eyes and he sobbed loudly.
"Well," She said looking at Laxus. "Should we let the masses in?"
Layrene= Layla and Irene(Laxus' mom)
