Naru watched his daughter sleep. A little smile formed on his lips. His little miracle. His little angel.
Naru was afraid that he and Mai wouldn't be able to cope with three babies but they are. Mai is a natural mother.
As the triplets got bigger. Little Gene and Kenji's eyes turned brown like their mother's. Keiko's eyes stayed blue. Like her father's.
Macarius was due to arrive anytime and Lin-san as pacing around the living. Mai was juggling Keiko who wouldn't stop crying. Mai looked out of the window to see a car parked in front of the house and a little boy jumped out of the car, yelling, "Daddy, daddy."
Lin looked out the window to see his son running in to the house. Lin hasn't seen his son for weeks. Lin hugged his son tightly. Macarius wrapped his tiny arms around his father's neck nearly chocking him.
Mai slipped from the room to give them some time to catch up. She went up to her room to find Naru sitting at the desk with papers on the table.
Keiko's crying got his attention. He turned around to find Mai trying to calm Keiko down. Naru sighed and got up walked over to her. "Give her to me."
As soon as Keiko was in her father's arms she stopped crying. "Daddy's girl." Mai mumbled as she checked on her sons. Sound asleep. "Macarius is here." Mai said turning back to Naru who nodded.
They went down stairs to find Lin's family sitting in the lounge room. "Mai-san, this is our son Macarius, Macarius this is Mai Taniyama, and she is Naru's girl." Madoka said.
Macarius mumbled a hello. Then he noticed Naru. He squealed, jumped off his father's lap and reached for him. "Careful Macarius he is holding his daughter." Lin said.
Macarius eyes widened, and then he said. "See?" Naru looked confused. "He wants to see her." Madoka translated. Naru sat down so Macarius could see her. Keiko opened her eyes and looked at him. Then after a minute she smiled and raised her fist. Macarius gently held the fist in his hand.
Dinner came quickly and finished quickly. Mai excused herself to feed the triplets. A few minutes later she came back down to see that Macarius has fallen asleep on Madoka's lap.
Lin picked him up and went to put him to bed.
By ten o'clock everyone was asleep. Naru came out of the joining bathroom and slid under the covers and pulled Mai towards him.
He laid on his back and laid her head on his chest. "When do you want to get married?" He asked, stroking her back slowly with his back.
Mai thought about it for a moment. "June 23rd?"
"A month from now. That feels like an eternity."
"You can wait." Mai said, messaging his chest.
On the other side of the door Madoka had her ear pressed against the door. "Honey, I think they are planning the wedding."
Lin sighed. As much as he loves her, she can be a big pain sometimes. "Come on, let's go to bed we have a big day tomorrow."
"But-"
"No buts, they will tell us when they are ready."
The next day Mai took Macarius horse riding around the house. Macarius helped Mai collect the eggs. He helped with the veggie picking.
Lin watched him, trying not to laugh. His son made funny faces at the veggies that he didn't like.
Mai's sisters came down to visit the nephews and niece. And their little sister of course.
Mai told them the date of her wedding and they all cheered. That night once the children were in bed and asleep the parents, aunts celebrated.
The sounds of babies crying woke the new parents. Mai fed them. And while she was feeding them Naru couldn't help feeling turned on and a little jealous. He wanted to suckle too. But he couldn't. (Mai wouldn't let him.)
So he settled for her neck. "Not now I'm- Ahh" He hit her weak spot.
"Naru, not now. I'm not ready." Naru sighed and pulled away. Once the babies were fed Mai placed them back in to their cots.
Back in their room Naru took Mai hand, kissed it gently, placed it on his chest, down his rib cage and stopped at his manhood.
He was aroused. Hard. He moved Mai's hand up and down. "Touch me." He groaned in her ear. She did better than that, she pressed her hips against his and moved against him.
"I thought you said that you weren't ready." He gasped.
"I lied."
There you are.
The wedding will take place in the next chapter.
