~*A Family Christmas~*

Chapter 6.

The mahogany grandfather clock stroke 10 and that meant it was time for the Hikari parents, Maylu, and Yai to be heading back to their homes. One by one, they were greeted goodbye with hugs and kisses from the women, and handshakes plus pats on the back by Yuichiro himself as Lan closed the door going towards his partner planting a sweet peck on the lips their foreheads touch and noses rubbed against each-other as the handsome brunette haired young man smiled with a twinkle in his light Hazel eyes.

"So lovely, now that everyone is gone, what do you say we get Magnolia ready for bed? besides, it looks like she's getting tired." Chaud said as he picked their daughter up but his 2 year younger husband had something else in mind as he made a little smirk.

"I have a better idea, what do you say we head on upstairs into our room and do something fun instead?" Chaud grew confused but shook his head.

"Lan, I don't have to work tomorrow can't that wait until then?" Shaking his head firmly and sternly, he took him by the hand to follow him up down the extra mile long hallway towards their master bedroom where they sat down on the Queen-sized bed; Maggie was fully awake wondering what in the world her Papa had planned. Chaud on the other hand grew slightly impatient.

"Okay so now what?" He asked only to get a response to cover his eyes also with Maggie as well. Sighing he did what he was told didn't want to deny his husband's wishes as Lan took out the wrapped up gifts from underneath the bed where the girls had hid them. Telling him to open them back up, he looked below him only to frown and cross his arms.

"Lan, I thought we agreed that we wouldn't open any presents until Christmas Day." Lan Humphed following the same pattern.

"Well, I think it's best you both open them now; besides, it's better to know about it now than wait until the last minute." He winked making both Husband and child to grow question marks above their heads to show their confusion at the same time. Carefully tearing off the colorful and fun paper without actually ripping it, The dual haired man opened up a large box to only reveal a blue sweater that had on green words: I'm Going to be a Father again. Maggie got the same thing as well only her's was pink with purple words and Purple Hearts all around which read: I'm Going to be a Big Sister.

The Blaze Male stared at his lover his mouth completely agape couldn't believe it at all!

Lan soon took out a little package letting him know to open it to see what it really was only to find out that it was a pregnancy test with the plus sign on the monitor reading that it was indeed positive! Tears cascaded down pale cheeks as he quickly hugged his spouse careful not too tightly.

"So this is why you've been so secretive lately. Why didn't you tell me?"

Lan blushed scarlet red as he buried his face deeper into his Husband's neck. "I wanted it to be a surprise. That's why for the past few months I could hardly keep anything down that's why Maylu and Yai were practically there with me for support each and everyday back and forth to the hospital. I didn't know if you wanted to have another child; I-I-I'm sorry I know how busy you are over at the Company that I didn't want to take you away from your work. But... If you want for me to get rid of it-" Chaud quickly cut him off in mid sentence by placing a finger on his lips kissing his forehead feeling the warmth on his own lips as well.

"No! I do want to have another offspring with you; it's just that I'm just surprised is all. This is yet another great blessing in our lives. With the four of us, everything will be alright I just know it Maggie will have a new sibling whom she will grow up with someone by her side that way, she will no longer be lonely anymore. Can't you see, I'm very happy for you, for all of us."

Chocolate brown eyes were filled with salty orb water as the taller of the men wiped his spouse's tears away giving him a kiss on the cheek in return.

"Thank you..." Lan muttered as Magnolia joined with her parents in a group hug.

The End is Near... Happy Holidays! :) :)
