Changes All Around

Kira smiled and sat down to eat her own breakfast. Once they were all done, she sent the boys into the back yard to play along with their little sister and a stern admonishing to be careful around her. She went up stairs to check on Cam.
The little girl was huddled under her blankets, coughing now and again. "Mama...can I come downstairs? It's lonely up here."
"Sure, sweetie. We'll put you on the couch in the living room. How's that?"
"Okay." She sat up slowly and, with her mother's help, managed to get down to the living room and settled on the couch.
"Do you want anything?" Kira smoothed her daughter's hair.

"Can I have some ginger ale please?" her daughter asked in a soft voice, blinking up at her mother with slightly bleary eyes.

"Alright, sounds good to me," Mai said with a wide smile. "I'm so happy Gabrial proposed."

"Well then...I guess I'll just get started." He grinned and kissed her again.

"Well, they'll be up there for a while, I think," Mei said with a giggle as she cleared away the plates.

"Everything will be alright now," Eiro said, sitting on the edge of the bed. "Lucifer's pulled the council down by now so there's no one left to threaten Mei."

"Thank you. Why don't you come over and see your grandson?"

Lucifer shivered violently, breaking the kiss.
"It'll be easier if you take the shirt off," he said, running his fingers through her long hair.

"You're welcome, sweetie." Mei smiled at her young sister-in-law. "Okay, is this that guy's painting? Because honestly, I'm not at all impressed."

A couple nights later, Cam was awakened around midnight by sharp stabbing pains in her abdomen.

He pulled her to him for another kiss.
"You do that..." He gave her ass a light squeezed before turning and heading for the basement to check the water heater.

The toddler thought about it for a moment.
"Geen!" she announced. Kira laughed a little and carried her to the kitchen.

"Shinji!" Eiro knocked loudly on his brother's front door but recieved no answer. He backed up slightly, peering at all the windows, hoping to see one of them lit up in the soft, dusky light.
Nothing.
"Shit!" He glanced down at his watch. Lucifer was a good ten minutes ahead of him. More than enough time...Eiro gave a start. Of course, time. Shinji and Rei always took a walk in the park at this time.
Unfurling his huge black wings, he took off towards the park.

"Eager for something?" He stripped off her slip.
