The morning light filtered through the windows, but what woke you and Donna up was the sound of crying babies. Your eyes cracked open, swinging your feet over the bed and heading into the bedroom. Donna followed right behind you, rubbing her eye and grumbling. You began to change the babies while Donna got started on food. Sitting them in their chairs after fresh diapers and talking, you helped Donna feed the children. "Lucien, you have to eat just like Mina and Lana." Donna explained to the young boy, making you laugh. After feeding, you and Donna burped them and ran them a bath.
As you helped Donna get Mina, Lana, and Lucien dressed to go to Alcina's castle to introduce them to her. They all wore onesies, Lucien with little sheep, Mina with little foxes, and Lana with bananas. As you got to the castle, a maid opened the door and helped you bring in the three babies. "Let me see my nieces and nephew!" Alcina's voice boomed through the castle, coming down the stairs. Her eyes fell upon the three, her hands flying up to her mouth as her eyes went wide. "Oh! Little babies! Three of them!" She quickly came down the stairs, the maid handing her Lana. "She looks just like you, Donna! Oh, how adorable! And you dressed her in a banana patterned onesie? Aww!" Tears started to roll down Alcina's cheeks as she heard Lana giggle. You held up Lucien, the countess picking him up as well. "A handsome little man! Yes you are!" Lucien began to giggle loudly, Lana handed to you. "And Mina, little miss Mina! What striking red hair you have! You little fox!" Alcina cooed.
You stood there holding Lana, laughing softly as Mina stared at the countess. "She's our quiet one. She already learned how to crawl." Donna spoke up, smiling. The day continued on smoothly, Donna having packed extra baby food and diapers just in case. Daniela, Cassandra, and Bela met the three, happy to have new family members. The three soon got tired, ready for their naps. Alcina continued to hold Mina, letting the infant sleep in her arms. "We have cradles here if you need to stay the night. I'm sure the three will appreciate a good nap while you open the presents I got you." Alcina offered. You quickly nodded, you and Donna following Alcina to the bedroom with the cradles. The three slept soundly, Alcina bringing you two back downstairs.
Opening presents, she had gotten you a playpen, toys, clothes for different ages, little children's books, and as you got to the end, Daniela came in with a sleeping animal. "We got you a puppy. It's a baby pitbull." You held the sleeping female dog, smiling. "We'll name her..." Donna looked to you for a name. You looked at the puppy. Red fur, white paws... "Vix, short for Vixen." You cooed. "Vix it is!" Donna grinned.
You crept into bed, the puppy between you both. "I love you, Donna." "I love you too, (Y/N)."
It's been several years, 10 to be exact. Mina sat at the table looking over her homework, Donna pulling her hair back into a ponytail. Lucien was eating his food, giving small bits to Vix. Lana came down from her room, coming up to you. "I can't find my brush." She grumbled, resting her head on your stomach. "Mom's using it, she will give it right back to you after." Mina spoke up. You ran your fingers through Lana's hair. "Go eat breakfast before the bus comes. Mina, stop checking your homework and eat, you already finished your papers." You pulled out a chair for Lana, putting a couple barrettes in the brunettes hair to keep her bangs out of her face. "Behave at school you three. Lucien, no cruel pranks." You called out, grabbing your keys. "Off to work, babe?" Donna asked, letting go of Mina's hair. She gave you a kiss, handing you your lunch. "Yeah, but I'll ask Alcina if I can bring you a bottle of wine, she's had an influx of product this year." You headed out, smiling. This is the life. Like string caught in cat's claws.
