Chapter 6: Day one of Parenting (Meeting the rest of the fam.)
I woke to one of the babies crying in the middle of the night. I look over at Sebastian and find him passed out asleep. He's gotten up the past few times they've woken up, so I'll let him rest. I go to the nursery and find both Willow and Max screaming. Crap. I may need to get Sebastian up, after all. I go back to the bedroom and shake him awake. "What's wrong?" He grumbles, peering up at me through narrowed eyes.
"Both of the babies are up. I need your help feeding and changing them." I said. He got up and we went back to the nursery. "You take Max I got Willow." I picked Willow up and cooed at her to calm her down. "It's alright, baby, Mommy's here. Are you hungry? I bet you are!" I said, smiling at her.
I quickly made a bottle for her, testing the temperature on my wrist. Perfect. I placed it in her mouth and she started drinking. Soon after, she was done. I checked her diaper and found it full and changed her. Sebastian did the same with Max.
"Alright, baby girl, time for nigh-night, OK? How about you sleep till morning, please?" I said, placing her back in her crib.
I went over to Max who was still in Sebastian's arms and took him from Sebastian. "You can go back to bed now; I'll get him situated and join you soon." I told him. He nodded and went back to bed.
I put Max in his crib and kissed his forehead. "Alright, buddy. Go nigh-night, OK? For mommy and daddy?" I ask, tapping his nose. He gurgled at me and I laughed. I went back into our bedroom and went back to bed. Sebastian curled himself around me as soon as I pulled the covers over me. I snuggled deeper into his embrace and fell back asleep.
-few hours later, 6 AM-
We woke again in the morning and got the babies fed, changed and dressed. I dressed Willow in a pink onesie with her name in white cursive letters with a pink skirt and socks. Sebastian put Max in a similar outfit except it it was blue with his name in white block letters and blue jean shorts and blue socks. Seb put his blue binkie in his mouth and I put Willows pink binkie in her mouth.
I giggled as Willow looked up at me with her big green eyes. "Good morning, sweety. Did you sleep good?" I ask her. She reaches her tiny hand up and grabbed my hair, pulling lightly. "Ok, Ok. No Hair." I say, moving her hand. "How about we go bye-bye? Wanna meet everyone?" I ask.
We strapped them in their carriers. "Hey, I'm going to get the diaper bag set up. Can you keep an eye on them?" I ask. Sebastian nods. I hurry and pack extra diapers, wipes, clothes, bottles, toys, burp clothes, blankets, extra binkies, the changing pad, and everything else I needed into the black and gray polka dotted diaper bag.
I go over to Willow's carrier and pick it up. Seb picks up Max and takes the diaper bag from me, slinging it over his shoulder. We pack the babies and bag into the car before sliding into the front seat.
Sebastian drives over to the Institute where everyone is waiting. Well, everyone except Simon. We will visit him later since he can't come into the Institute due to being a vampire.
We unloaded and went into the Institute, up the elevator and into the main living area where everyone was sitting and talking with each other. They didn't notice us come in, so we quickly got the babies out of their carriers before the started crying and put the carriers out of the way with bag.
"Hey, guys!" I call and they look over and greeted us. "We're going to show them to Maryse and tell her their names, unless Izzy already did?" I ask. "I didn't. I figured you'd want to see her reaction. I nodded and walked over to Maryse with Sebastian on my heels, holding Max. "This is Willow Amanda Morgenstern." I hand her Willow.
"She's gorgeous. And she has your eyes!" Maryse gushed. "Thank you." I reply, taking her back after she got done holding her. "And this guy's special. His name is…" I paused and grinned at her. "Maxwell Hale Morgenstern. Nicknamed Max, after Max." She covered her mouth with her hands and started crying. "Thank you, Clary!" she sobbed. "You're welcome." I hugged her, being mindful of Max in my arms, who I got after handing Willow to Alec. "Here. Hold him. Izzy and Alec are his godparents and mom and Luke are Willow's. You are welcome anytime you want to see them. All of you are." I said. "Except for Jace." Sebastian hissed. I nod in agreement. "Oh, we aren't planning on bring him anywhere near the babies. Not after he threatened to kill them." Isabelle snarled. "What?" I yelled, startling Max, who started crying.
I took him from Maryse and calmed him, handing him back to her. "I swear, if I see him, he's dead. I will slowly kill him and no one can stop me." I said quietly. "We won't stop you. That's my godson and daughter." Alec said. "Maryse, I know these aren't Jace's children, but can you be there adoptive grandparents? I'd feel better knowing I have more people with experience with children to help me." I asked. "Of course." She said. I smiled.
"Hey, Clare, I think Willow needs a diaper change." Alec said. I took her from him and quickly changed her. "Want her back?" he nodded and I gave her back to him.
-hours later-
It was dark outside and we were all in the living room, chatting and playing with the babies. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I look up and see Sebastian smiling gently down at me. "We should probably get going. It's dark and Willow and Max are already falling asleep." He said. "Yeah, you're right." I said, before turning to everyone else. "Guys. We really need to get these sleepyheads home." I say, taking Willow as Sebastian takes Max and put them in their car seats.
"Alright, well, come visit again soon, ok?" Izzy asked. We nod, say our goodbyes and leave.
SO there you go. A rather crappy chapter but oh well XD It's what I came up with, so deal with it. I do need improvement, I know.
