"Maya! You made it!" Aaron cheered, hopping over to the window. The rabbit and dog hybrid gave the cat and hawk hybrid a hug before bouncing away to inform his mother. Smiling happily, Maya turned to face her parents. "Thank you Mommy and Daddy!" she cried, wagging her fluffy red tail. Nuzzling his daughter, Tiberius purred, "You're welcome sweetheart."

"Make sure you have a good time baby girl," Ozone remarked, grinning. Thinking for a moment, he added quickly, "Just… not too much fun. And mind your manners and listen to Snowball and Daisy." Walking up to her father, Maya hugged him as she replied reassuringly, "Don't worry Daddy, I will. I love you guys." Looking down at his daughter with a smile on his face, the hairless feline gently licked her forehead and meowed, "We love you too Maya."

"More than you'll ever know," Tiberius spoke softly, giving their young daughter one more loving nuzzle. Purring happily, Maya grabbed her blanket and teddy bear. Waving her left wing at her parents, she headed inside the apartment to join her friends. Watching for a little bit, Ozone and Tiberius nuzzled each other. Then they headed down the fire escape. Walking beside his lover, Ozone asked, "You okay?"

"Uh, yeah. It's just hard not being with her all the time," Tiberius replied. He kept looking back over his shoulder as if he expected their daughter to come running over. Gently headbutting the hawk, Ozone murmured, "She'll be okay, don't worry. We'll see her at noon tomorrow. Now, as for us, we are going to be enjoying the night before it's over." Chuckling quietly, the hawk let the cat take the lead once they got down to the sidewalk. Following his husband, he asked, "Alright sneaky, where are you taking me this time? All I request is that it's a restaurant that allows me in and serves great food."

"Guess you'll have to see beautiful," Ozone answered teasingly. Rubbing his whole body against Tiberius's side, the Sphynx cat purred, "Once we're done with dinner, we're heading right back for home and have some fun before the sun's up." Rolling his eyes, the red tail shoved the cat playfully as he pointed out, "I already know the plan. There's no need to blurt it out loud."

"There's nobody out here."

"Still."

"You get worried over the tiniest things and yet I love you more than life itself."

"I love you too Ozone, to infinity and beyond."
