December 20
(Warning: This is a two parter. The second part will be on Christmas Day)
(Warning II: America and Canada are girls. Cool?)
(Warning III: There is major Ameripan in this. Cool?)
(Warning IV: Matthew's Nyo! name for me is Juno, not Madeline or something. Just so you don't get confused or anything)
Amelia took deep breaths, pacing the ground. She couldn't bring herself to wait it out to see if it was a false alarm, or if something would happen. Kiku grabbed her hand, stopping her walking. The calm look and loving message in his eyes calmed her breathing, but in no way calmed her heart rate.
"Oui?" Francis strutted into the room. "What did you need, mon cheri?" When he saw Amelia, his eyes lit up. "Amelia!"
"Papa!" She squealed and ran to him, squashing him in a strong hug. He laughed, hugging her back.
"I see you're still as forceful as ever." He pulled out and kissed each of her cheeks. He turned to the other man in the room, extending his arms out for a familial greeting. "Kiku! How great to see you!" Kiku just bowed, rejecting Francis' gesture. "Ah, yes. You aren't the hugging type. Please, sit, sit!"
They all scrunched onto the couch, Amelia sitting in the middle of both men.
"So," Francis grinned, "What brings you here? Who let you in?"
Amelia glanced to Kiku, who gave her a supportive smile. "Well," She started nervously, "Dad let us in. And we came to wish you a Merry Christmas!-" They all began to mutter the words, Francis in French, before she continued, "And... we came yielding some news, which we can't tell until Dad and Juno come."
Francis pouted just as Arthur walked through the door.
"Ah! I see you've greeted each other!" He exclaimed, sitting next to Francis and giving him a peck on the lips. "What is it you wanted to tell us, dear?"
"Not yet, Dad!"
When Juno came, everyone switched around in their seats for room. Now, Arthur and Francis were directly in front of Amelia and Kiku. Juno was to the side, as always.
"Now," Amelia started, "Papa, Dad, Juno..." She extended her reach for Kiku's hand, which she squeezed so hard it may have broken his fingers.
"I'm pregnant."
There was absolute silence.
Then the whole party, excluding Kiku and Amelia, burst into excited whoops.
"We're going to be grands-peres!" Francis sobbed out happily, hugging Arthur. Arthur just cried happily and held him back.
Juno jumped in the air several times, then ran over and hugged her sister so tight, Feliciano Vargas would be jealous. "OH MY GOD!" She squealed. "I'M GOING TO BE AN AUNT. AN AUNT!"
After the excitement died down, Juno had everyone sit down, claiming she had news of her own. After disappearing for a second, she came back into the doorway and said, "Family... This... is my fiance."
