Tsukasa lay comfortably in his bed next to his husband. Akito's arms were wrapped tightly around his body, clinging to him like he were a lifeline. Tenma's head was buried in the ginger's bare chest.
The two were fast asleep. That was temporary though. A loud wailing broke the silence.
Akito woke up first. Groggily, he rubbed his eyes and nudged Tsukasa.
"Tsukasa..."
The blonde arose however only half awake. "Mmh?" He heard the loud wailing. "Oh..."
"Yeah..."
"I'll deal with her." He sighed.
Tenma reluctantly left the bed and went over to the crib across the room. He looked down at the small girl who lay there, crying her eyes out.
"What's wrong hm?" the blonde said as he gently picked her up.
He ran his hand through her ginger hair, brushing against her ears. Her tail flailed about as she continued to cry. Tsukasa rubbed her back and craddled her back and forth in his arms.
The longer he looked at his daughter, he realised how strange it was that he managed to give birth to an Umamusume. But that didn't matter, she was his and Akito's daughter. Their precious sweet daughter.
"Oh my dear Opera...I love you so much." Tenma placed a tender kiss on her forehead.
She quietened down, her big purple eyes staring up at him. They were still teary but that was okay. His hand ran through her hair again. It was soft and silky.
"My sweet baby. I'd never let anyone hurt you." Opera reached out to grab one of his fingers.
He let her, chuckling at how her small fist wrapped around his finger. The girl let a small giggle.
Tsukasa suddenly felt strong arms wrap around his waist paired with the sweet scent of pancakes.
"Akito what are you doing...?" He said holding back a giggle.
"What? I couldn't go back to sleep without you."
The ginger pressed his lips against the blonde's neck, leaving kisses.
"Stop it..." he mock-protested.
Opera looked up at Shinonome. The little girl began to giggle louder and put her arms out. Her tail swished side to side, happy to see her father. She wanted him to hold her. Tsukasa noticed this and took a step forward.
Akito let out a whine. "Hey...why are you moving away..."
He spun around theatrically, getting a laugh out from the ginger girl in his arms. "Here's your package dearest!"
He placed Opera in Akito's arms. She cooed in joy.
"She wanted you to hold her." Tenma smiled.
"Ohhh..." Akito began to tickle the little girl in his arms. "You're such a silly girl aren't you."
The blonde stroked her hair. "Our silly girl."
"Mhm." she was biting the ginger's finger. He didn't care though. "Should we bring her into the bed?"
Tsukasa nodded. "I think she started crying because she wanted us. Afterall she calmed down after seeing me and you."
Shinonome chuckled. "She really loves us doesn't she."
"We do shower her in love. Of course she loves us!"
Opera cooed with a big smile on her face, as if she understood what the two were saying. Akito suddenly grabbed Tsukasa by his waist with one hand and held the girl with the other. Tenma blushed at this despite being married to him for almost 3 years. The ginger walked back to their bed, Tsukasa pressed against his side. He pulled up the sheets and let the other lie down first before gently placing Opera next to him and lying down himself.
The small girl made some silly noises and let out a few giggles. She liked their big bed very much. After a bit of rolling around, Opera crawled into Tsukasa's arms. She curled up right against his chest and closed her eyes. The two watched her with soft expressions.
"Aww..." the ginger ruffled her hair.
Tenma rubbed her back gently. She let out a small yawn and rubbed her eyes. It didn't take long for the girl to fall asleep.
Shinonome looked up at the blonde.
"I want to kiss you." he blurted out.
Tsukasa's face still burned even though he was very much used to this request. "Eh?!"
"Just one kiss..." Akito pleaded.
"Fine. Only one kiss."
The ginger shuffled closer to the blonde. He cupped his face with his hand as he leaned in. Their lips touched in an instant. It was a slow, sweet kiss. There was no desperation or lust, only wholesome love. The two never wanted this to end. Their beautiful relationship. Their family. Tenma brushed some of Akito's hair back as they continued to kiss.
A few seconds later, Tsukasa broke away from the kiss. "I love you Akito."
"I love you too." he said. "I'm happy you're mine, only mine."
"Awwwww..." the blonde blushed. "I'm happy too. Happy that you're with me. And that we brought such a cutie into the world."
"Hah, yeah. She'll grow up to be like us won't she."
Tsukasa nodded. "She will for sure."
Akito wrapped his arms around Tenma. The blonde closed his eyes. He was content with his life. He didn't want anything more than this and so did Akito. The two eventually fell asleep, still cuddling with their daughter.
