Chapter 22: Home

*ERROR'S P.O.V*

I smiled at all of our friends and looked up at the room. They had set a banner up that said "Welcome Home Paperjam!" as well as set up some trays of different foods and drinks. The whole thing seemed like a really calm little welcoming party and I pressed a soft kiss against Ink's forehead. He stirred in my arms and moaned softly, burying his face into my chest and falling into a deeper sleep. I chuckled and looked up at our friends.

"Guys, I really appreciate you all coming but Ink's so tired and exhausted from everything and-" I was cut off by Geno.

"We can be quiet… I just wanna meet PJ." He admitted, squeezing Goth and making him squeak softly, giggling. Reaper kissed Geno's forehead.

"Geno, I think Error's trying to say that we should come back later… You know how you got after you had Goth." He whispered softly. Geno looked at his feet and sighed, smiling softly.

"Yeah, I guess you're right…" He sighed. Reaper kissed his forehead gently and picked up Goth, tickling his chin. Goth giggled and grabbed onto his hand.

"Da ee!" He squealed, making Reaper smile proudly. Geno rolled his eyes playfully and waved at me.

"Bye Error, we'll be back later." He promised, taking Reapers hand and opening a portal up to their home before they walked out. Fell smiled at me and held Blue closer to his chest. Blue swatting at him lightly and giggled before looking at me.

"As much as I'd love to see your baby I think it'd be better if he rested." He said softly. Fell smiled and nodded at me before opening a portal.

"We'll be back." He said, pulling Blue back to their home. I chuckled and waved at them and looked down at Ink, stroking his back gently. I gently lied him down on the couch and set PJ down on his back for a moment, pulling a blanket over Ink.

"Rest, Inky…" I whispered, pressing a soft kiss against his nose. Ink purred softly and smiled in his sleep.

"M'kay…" He mumbled, giggling slightly. I chuckled and kissed his forehead again before turning back to pick up our baby.

He wasn't there.

I sucked in a breath and I felt my heart beating against my chest. I frantically looked around the room before my heart stopped and I nearly stumbled backwards.

Fresh was still here.

And he was holding my baby.

I walked over to him and hissed quietly.

"Fresh?! You nearly gave me a heart attack! I thought I just lost my newborn baby!" I hissed. He looked up at me and shrugged before looking back down at PJ and wiggling the little bear in front of him.

*FRESH'S P.O.V* (Betcha weren't expecting that now were you?)

I watched all the other couples leave and I just stared at Error, expecting him to kick me out but instead he turned immediately towards Ink and their kid.

That's new.

They shared a kiss before Error lied him down on the couch and set PJ on his back for a moment to tuck Ink in. I walked over and looked down at the little skeleton, poking his cheek. He squirmed lightly and slowly grabbed onto my hand, leaving me in shock. I wasn't used to this kind of thing so I just kinda let my mind take over and the next thing I knew I was holding onto the tiny skeleton byproduct of his two horny parents. He squirmed lightly in my arms before turning and holding onto my chest, a small, sleepy smile on his face. I felt a strange warmth spread in my chest and over my cheeks when I head him babble softly in his sleep. I smiled lightly.

"Hey little bro…" I whispered, smiling warmly. He giggled in his sleep and the warmth grew more intense. I saw the bear on the table and picked it up, nuzzling it against the kiddo.

Jammy, I think?

"C'mon, say hello to Mr. Bear Bear, yo..." I whispered.

"Fresh?! You nearly gave a heart attack! I thought I just lost my newborn baby!" Error hissed. I looked up and saw his worried and angry expression as he looked between me and his kid in my arms. I shrugged and went back to nuzzling the bear against Jammy. He twitched lightly and cracked open his eyes, staring at the bear and mumbling softly to himself before grabbing the bear's ear with his little hand. Error watched silently and I saw him clench his fist and a look of jealousy spread over his face.

"Fresh, give me back Paperjam." He commanded. Jammy perked up at the voice and looked at Error, letting out small squeals of happiness. Error immediately smiled at his son. I chuckled and handed him the bear, tickling his chin. He giggled and hugged his bear the best he could and cooed softly, making incoherent sounds. I smiled and chuckled warmly before looking up at Error.

"Yo, you can have your kiddo back… He's pretty rad." I said, gently holding out his child. Error took him from me and held him against his chest, smiling warmly.

"Yeah… He is…" He whispered softly, gently stroking Jammy's cheek. He let go of the bear and looked up at his father, letting out a soft coo before grabbing onto one of Error's fingers with his tiny hands. I slowly inched over and looked down at the baby in Error's arms.

"He's so… TINY…" I said softly. Jammy cooed and nuzzled into his father, closing his eyes. Error smiled softly and gently pressed a kiss against his baby's head.

"Yeah…." He whispered. I looked down at the baby for a moment before looking up.

"So uh, I-If you and Ink ever need a babysitter or something, I'm here, bro…" I said, looking away. Error looked up in shock and considered my offer for a moment.

"We'll…. See…." He muttered. I nodded.

"Okay, well I should probably get out of your hair." I mumbled, turning and walking out the door.

"Oh… Okay." Error muttered before turning and lying down beside Ink and hugging his family close. Ink smiled in his sleep and nuzzled closer to him. I felt a soft pain in my chest as I watched their love-filled interactions.

Something I wouldn't have.

Anybody feeling bad for Fresh, because I am! Anywho, SQUEE! BABY!
