Song listened to: 'Stars' by Skillet.
He rocked the little fledgling in His arms as He walked through the Garden guided by the shine of the stars above, wrapping her in His cloak when she shivered against the cool breeze, with His four sons away on a mission of their own, and unwilling to leave their charge to her lonesome, He had assured them that she would be well watched over.
He hummed a soft lullaby under His breath as He walked, swaying like the trees did in the breeze, when she stirred slightly, and He smiled to Himself when she calmed back into sleep again. He had not walked with a sleeping fledgling in His arms since His Messenger had been this small, humming gentle lullabies, cradling them to His chest warmly.
He used to do such things with His Archangels, when they were all younger of course, when it had been just Them and His four children. Sister used to walk with them, and now She did again, watching as He lulled the young ones to sleep. When He'd created Lucifer, Sister would carry the little bundle that was the Morningstar around as He Himself carried the Prince of His world yet to be created.
"…. Mmm…. Daddy?"
"I am here, My little angel, go back to sleep now."
"Jus' checkin'."
He smiled and rocked His arms a bit more, listening as her breaths slowly but surely evened out again, her little fingers curling around the front of His robe as she drifted back off.
When He'd created Raphael and Gabriel, the first two had been old enough to sleep without being carried around, tucked secure and warm in a soft patch of grass upon a soft blanket.
Much like He did now with this little angel.
He smiled down at her as she slept unaware, "My little star. You will one day become the one creating worlds.", He rocked her from side to side "Galaxies come from your hands, you shine brighter then the brightest star, nearly as bright as your beloved master." She sighed contentedly and kneaded like a warm little kitten does when safe and sound "You will hold the stars one day, when you're older of course, just as I created you to." He smiled down at the first fledgling He'd rocked to sleep in His arms since before the dawn of mankind, as she slept blissfully unaware, "You will surpass us all. Mine Sister and I's greatest masterpiece."
He continued on His way, falling silent to listen to the chirping of the crickets and the breeze dance through the trees, returning to the lullaby He had been humming under His breath and still the fledgling in His arms slept on.
