Collection Two: Mornings In The Study
Bloom woken up the next chilly but snowless winter day, as she decided to sleep in late until something was strangely off.
She slowly opened her sapphire blue eyes as they staring at the ceiling, before turning her head to the left while yawning softly, letting out her morning breath almost tasting like spearmint toothpaste and Kaname's dark chocolate tasting blood on her tongue.
After turning her head, she noticed that her husband's presence was it next to her as his side of the bed was on the bedspread and sheets were full of wrinkles. Raising her body upright, she can hear a soft coo that made her turn her head towards her left to see the twins shared crib.
She stood up from the bed after fixing her short sleeve pale blue nightgown and walked towards the decorated crib, noticing that Airi "Ai" Kuran was covered in her small pale pink, crimson red and snow white quilt that Hana Mizuki made for each of the twins as a gift. Shinichi's was a navy blue, lime green and pale yellow on.
Little Airi's small baby like eyes open slowly as they revealed garnet red orbs, like her father's while looking up at her mother still having her favorite magenta colored soothie pacifier, before her small arms reached out for her.
Then, suddenly Bloom noticed that Shinichi wasn't on the other side of the shared crib as her sapphire blue eyes widened, before lifting up the six pound pureblood baby.
Running out the master bedroom while holding Little Airi close to her milk filled breasts, she quickly sensed Shinichi's baby scent smelling like cinnamon scent pinecone spice and apple blossom as she located her middle child in Kaname's study, before calming down to hear happy baby coos.
She taken a deep breath before using her pureblood vision to see through the large wooden door to see Kaname sitting behind his desk, while holding Shinichi in his left arm. To her knowledge, Momohime was next to her father's side while looking at her smiling baby brother.
"Shinichi-onii-san's cute, Daddy." Momohime said, happily as Shinichi had a grip onto his eldest sister's index finger.
"I think Shinichi has taken a liking to you too, Princess." Kaname said, softly smiling at his first born daughter and twin son. "He looks just like his grandfather."
"Grandpapa?" Momohime questioned, referring to the late Sora Sakurakoji.
Kaname chuckled. "No, Momohime, his grandfather on my side of the family. His name is Haruka Kuran, he was a great man and father who protected me and your Aunt Yuki, when we were just small children growing up in this mansion."
"Shinichi Haruka Kuran?" Momohime questioned, saying Shinichi's full name.
"That's correct, Princess." Kaname said, looking down at Shinichi, smiling up at his father. "Your mother name him. Shinichi means true one and Haruka means disant which is my father and your grandfather's name."
"Daddy?" Momohime called out to Kaname.
"Yes, my princess?" Kaname questioned, now holding his son with both arms.
"Are you happy with Shinichi?" Momohime questioned.
"Why, yes I am." Kaname said, before placing his hand on Momohime's shoulder. "It does not mean that I would never spend my free time with seeing him alone. You are the eldest daughter of our family and I want you show an example to your brother and sister, and even the vampire council."
"Me mess up?" Momohime questioned.
"You will never do anything wrong, Princess, as long you stay kind and sweet like your mother." Kaname explained. "You are a young pureblood princess, with a strong personality like your mother and me. Don't let anyone take your place in our family, Momohime."
Momohime smiled. "Me won't, Daddy." She said, before reaching up on her tiptoes and kissed Kaname's left cheek. "Love you."
Suddenly, Shinichi's bottom lip started to quiver and his small garnet red eyes were closed shut as he started to fuss in his father's hold. Kaname held him close, before looking down at him.
"My son, what's wrong?" Kaname questioned softly, as Shinichi began to fuss even louder. He wasn't a quiet baby like Airi or not even Kaname when he was small baby as well. "Do you want your pacifier?" Kaname questioned.
Kaname started rocking him gently, as he uses his index and middle finger to grab his green soothie pacifier from the desk to place it into his waiting mouth. When he did, Shinichi look up at Kaname with his questioning eyes before spitting it out and crying out loud once again.
"Shinichi?" Momohime called out his name, as the baby turn his attention towards his eldest sister. The baby had tears running down her cheeks now, as he started sniffling. "Bubbie, kissy." Momohime said, before reaching out and placed her lips against his forehead, hearing a smooching noise.
Kaname smiled as he heard Shinichi gurgling happily and Momohime had a smile on her face as well.
"Aww…"
Kaname heard Bloom's voice on the other side of the door, as he already knew that she saw it through the door and she was touched of how Momohime was a loving sister to her baby twin brother Shinichi Haruka.
