~*A Family Christmas~*

Chapter 8.

Maggie with her tiny hand still in Amanda's, took slow but steady steps towards her Papa's bedside as she was being lifted up by her Grandmother seeing the infant up close. She was gently lowered down into Lan's lap as Miracle stared up in front of her; eyes wide yet sparkled along with the 2-year-old.

"Maggie, meet your new baby sister, Miracle. Say hi."

For the next 3 minutes, the girls stared deep at each-other. With a raise of her hand, the cute and adorable toddler stretched it out to touch her cheek which felt soft followed by a little pinch. Miracle about to cry, and Magnolia thinking real quickly, kissed her to make the slight pain disappear earning a number of more awes. Lan and Chaud smiled at one another gazing down at their precious sweet children while the Hikari parents hugged and Maylu and Yai following their actions.

Suddenly, footsteps could be heard as the crowd turned towards the doorway only to reveal to be Raika and Pride who was pregnant with their first child as well while the mint haired soldier had a handful of colorful gift wrapped presents followed by Dex, Chisao, Annetta, and Tory. They all had huge but warm smiles on their faces after hearing about the new arrival thanks to Yai whom had called each and every one of them to come to see the baby.

"Hello there everyone what a nice surprise. What are you all doing here?" Lan asked.

"Let's just say that a little birdie told us to come see the precious little angel sent from above." Annetta said looking over at Yai who whistled innocently as Pride slightly waddled over to see her; sky blue eyes twinkling in delight asking if she could hold her as the brunette nodded gently handing his daughter over while Maggie on the other hand, ran towards her 'Uncle' Raika only managing to hug his leg as he picked her up with her patting his face and ruffling his hair.

"Oh Raika, isn't she just a little sweetheart? I hope our child will be just as cute when it comes don't you think?" The beautiful Blond Heir asked winking in the process seeing the Army man blush slightly pink clearing his throat; luckily, Haruka spoke up just in time.

"Well, isn't this just wonderful? every one of us is together on the most greatest time of the year. And to celebrate, what do you say we have breakfast my treat and don't worry about a thing you two, I'll cook it's on me." Lan and Chaud laughed. They knew how the Matriarch would get whenever she would be in the kitchen; it was like her second home in her own home but they appreciated her cooking nonetheless.

It was now the two males by the time the room quieted down. Chaud sighed fully relieved now that everyone had left as it was just him and Lan now. The then Net battling prodigy stretched his stiff arms and yawn feeling his husband's lips on his forehead.

"How are you feeling love?" He asked gently while the other stared up at him tired yet happy.

"Exhausted but above all, okay. I'm just glad it's all over; no more pain, no more having to prepare for battle under the forces of evil anymore and definitely, no more having to live in fear." The pony-tailed two toned haired man smiled warmly at his lover this time planting a warm passionate kiss on his lips while biting the bottom part earning a moan from the younger one.

"You can say that again. I'm just so happy right now. It feels like I'm falling in love with you all over again." Lan blushed.

"Oh Chaud, as cheesy as that sounded, I love you too. You are my life, my soul, and my provider. I don't know what I would do if you were not in my life along with our daughters right now. With you, I feel so complete."

Hugging then came underway as the taller individual rocked him gently back and forth.

Hope you all enjoyed but we are not out of the woods yet. Mega-Man and Protoman are up next and a surprise visitor makes his appearance shh... I'm not going to tell you. You're just going to have to wait ;) Stay Tuned.
