Chapter Text

The hospital room was quiet as Jocelyn held her newest son in her arms. Ursa was cuddled up against her side, Jaxson standing next to Jason by the bed. Roy held Lian on the other side of the bed. The kids were excited to meet their brother.

“He’s so little mama” Ursa whispered as she leaned against Jocelyn’s shoulder and stared at her newborn brother.

“Well he's a newborn, pumpkin” Jason chuckled, “You were pretty small the day you were born too.” He kissed the top of her head.

Jocelyn smiled “You were all small at one point. Even Dad, Papa, and I were small.”

Jaxson eyed his father suspiciously, “I don't know if I believe that.” He mumbled.

Jason laughed, “Trust me kiddo, I was a real tiny baby” he ruffled Jax’s hair and gently pulled him closer by the shoulder, “Probably smaller than your brother here if the few pictures I have are anything to go by.”

“What's his name?” Lian asked as she climbed up on the end of the bed, Roy gently guiding her so she didn't fall.

“Atticus” Roy answered “Atticus Orion Harper-Todd.”

Jocelyn smiled and shifted the baby closer to her chest, he made a small sound. “Do you guys wanna take turns holdin’ him?” She asked, getting an immediate chorus of “yeahs!!”

Jason chuckled and lifted Ursa up off the bed, “Alright! Everyone find a chair.” He sat Ursa in a nearby chair, the older two dragged matching ones from nearby next to their younger sister.

Roy carefully took Atticus from Jocelyn’s arms and carried him to the line of excited siblings, “Okay.” He crouched down in front of Jaxson “See how I'm holding him? Ya gotta support his head.”

“I know.” Jaxson bounced in his chair and rolled his eyes slightly “Dad told me all this when Ursa was born. Can I please hold him?”

Jocelyn snorted “Jax. Buddy, relax.” She nodded to Roy and smiled as he passed the baby to their eldest.

Roy's hand hovered near Jaxson’s as he shifted the infant a little, “He's kinda heavy” the boy mumbled.

“I can take him ba..” Roy started

“No! No I got him.” Jax pouted and held his brother proudly.

Jocelyn smiled and shifted, laying back in the bed exhausted. Jason quietly shifted closer and sat down at the edge of the bed, pulling her close and playing with her short hair. They watched Roy carefully transfer the baby from one sibling to the next.
