-- family and yes, he had the potters and his grandmother. he, had, however ached for one of his own. she had given him this. she had shown him love he believed impossible and with that love ; their son had been born. }

-- left his son, and finally met the gaze of his wife. his heart filled with love and pride. }

thank you. for him, for us... for our lives.

{ he moved to settle down beside her on the hospital bed. an arm circling her shoulders to draw her near.
he'd always wanted a --

{ teddy's eyes followed her eyes as she glanced over at the crib where there son laid. his little mouth slightly agape, features peaceful as he watched the ceiling with rapt attention. }

I can't believe we are going home. with a baby.
our baby.

{ there was awe in his voice as his gaze --

{ a kiss dropped onto @decorusflos.bsky.social 's cheek before he'd stepped back. on the bed was her hospital bag and a pile of clothing that he was in the middle of folding. }

penny for your thoughts?

[ is that @aptformosity.bsky.social that he spies? ]

[ a cake balanced within his grasp, Theodore would step into his and @decorusflos.bsky.social's bedroom.
the candles atop illuminating the room with a soft glow. his voice soft as he sung happy birthday. ]

-- for werewolf rights and haters. it was nice to come home to her, to their baby and their beach. ]

-- spend a whole day enjoying your favorites. Me and Dom have it all planned out.

[ he took another sip, humming beneath his breath. ]

right, let's go for that walk. shall we?

[ he held a hand out for the blonde. he enjoyed spending his evenings like this. after a day of battling --

[ gratefully taking the cup within his grasp, fingers curling around the porcelain. the heat of the drink radiating and aiding to warm his palms.
he took a much needed sip. a soft content sigh spilling past his lips. ]

when she canted her head to the side, it would be the moment that he would take the opportunity to steal a kiss. lips meeting her cheek, brushing against the skin oh-so gently.

" I wouldn't say no, to a cup of coffee. Do you need any help?"

sneaks up behind @decorusflos.bsky.social, arms snaking around her middle. palms resting against the growing bump.

" everyone's asleep. how about we take a walk down to the beach?"

a shaky grin, a hand lifting to run through brunette locks streaked with blue.

" I... have something to tell you."

he swallowed thickly, unsure how to address the topic. to be honest, he was fearful of her reaction to what he had to confess.

;| Teddy working for the regulation and control of magical creatures.
but also having created a subdivision for werewolves, where, like SPEW, he advocates for werewolf rights and ending the stigma against them.

-- with a sigh.

" I just... I don't know. I miss her. I don't know her and I miss her.
Is that..is that stupid?"

-- relentless current that threatened to draw him down.

" it's hard. especially now, with vic. there's so much I want to tell her... that I wanted her to see.
and she never will."

a decision finally made, as feet opted to move forward. he settled beside her, body meeting the stuffed furniture--

teddy had been between turning and moving towards his aunt. his found himself feeling stuck, unsure what he wanted.
he ached for the comfort of his mother, he ached for something to soothe the hole within that never fully closed.

he swallowed thickly. his emotions stirring; a --

-- burst.
it was still early days, but he loved the little human growing inside of her.
his fingers gently ran along her stomach.

" we're going to be parents.

a family. "

he shook his head.

" merlin, I'm one lucky bastard. "

-- Ali.

leaning into the touch, a content feeling settled in his chest.

" sounds like a plan. there's also Molly's biscuits that we've yet to get into."

as a hand was placed upon her stomach. wonderment and happiness filled him to such as an extent and speed ; he thought he might--

" maybe james will surprise us and come to the realization himself."
Ted had been watching the situation unfold and while it was frustrating ; there was something strangely beautiful about it. the pair were good together and he hoped that james realized it before someone else swooped up --

@decorusflos.bsky.social

-- you're around. you give me all the buzz, I need."

there was a pause, a moment of admiring his darlings beauty.

" you, both do. "
