"Damian," you called.
Snow flurried outside the window.
"Damian, I can't find Grace."
Your husband stood in a robe at the bottom of the staircase, watching something in the living room. You could hear your daughter babbling something.
Upon descending the stairs, you saw Bruce was the one who had taken Grace out of bed. He was rocking her slowly while he sat on the floor, next to the high stack of presents next to the tree.
Damian snaked a hand around your waist as you both watched silently. Alfred entered the room, holding a cup of coffee out to Bruce, before smiling to you both.
"Merry Christmas, Master Damian and Miss Lorri."
"Thank you, Alfred," you smiled, making your way along the carpet to join Bruce.
He was still rocking Grace back and forth as she played with the button of his pajamas. He finally acknowledged you, whipping around with a guilty look on his face.
"She was crying, and I didn't want to wake you two-"
"It's okay, Bruce." You smiled.
"Yes, father." Damian sat on the couch, and Alfred handed him his own mug. "Thanks, Pennyworth."
"Merry Christmas, Bruce." You smiled warmly.
"Thank you, Lorri."
"Hm? Why?"
Bruce chuckled. "Well, I'm sure it wasn't Damian's idea to spend Christmas here."
"We didn't want you to be lonely." You replied, taking Grace and walking over to the window. "We're actually thinking of moving back here... It'd be better for her. She could get proper schooling, and stay with the family. She can have the The League when she gets older."
"You aren't thinking of making her Black Bird, are you?" Bruce asked, standing.
"It's the family tradition, Father." Damian smirked. "Merry Christmas."
"Well... What about you, Lorri?"
"I'm not sure yet. I have a while before she's ready. But..."
You turned to face the large portrait of your mother. She smiled down at you from across the living room.
"Night Bird sounds pretty tempting."
