"Hey there baby girl." Gulf whispered; he stroked his fingers through her black hair as she was laying content on his chest. She was smacking her lips while her little fist was balled against his chest. Gulf couldn't stop looking at her, and with all the little noises she made he would coo at her and stroke her back softly. He couldn't stop looking at how perfect she was. He had counted her little toes and fingers over and over again and all the time he would finish at ten. he had just finished feeding her and her eyes were drooping as they were laying in comfortable silence in the big private room in the hospital. Mew really didn't spare any cent on their stay and he had been the perfect man for the past days. He was so in love with his little daughter he couldn't stop kissing her. And would cradle her softly in his arms while humming a song to her as she fell asleep in his arms most of the time.

Gulf was now only with her in the silent room and he basked in her oh so sweet baby scent. He wouldn't be alone for long because his mom would come and visit. When he had called right after little Emma Mya was born, she was over the moon. She had screamed and ordered him to put her on facetime. She had shed a tear when she saw her for the first time and had said she would come as soon as possible. Now 2 days in, she would be here soon. Mew had to leave to set some things straight after the attack at their home. He had whined when Kaownah had called, he didn't want to go as he was stuck to Gulf's side for the past days. Gulf had ushered him to take care of everything and had promised him he could cuddle with Emma all he wanted when he came back. He had made Gulf pinky swear on it and Gulf would still chuckle thinking about it. The big strong Mew making pinky promises over his daughter. He had rushed out and said he would be back in no time.

Gulf startled out of his thought when he heard the door open softly. A head poked through the door and his mom's face appeared in the door opening.

"My baby boy...." She sniffled and shuffled over to Gulfs side to take him into a hug as good as possible. Emma still in between them both. After her, walked his dad inside the room with his sister. Gulfs mom pulled back and looked down at the little girl in Gulfs arms. "oh, she's so pretty." she whispered and stroked her little chubby cheek. Gulfs heart swelled as he smiled when she moved a little bit from the touch.

"you can hold her." Gulf said and his mom looked at him as if she had won the jackpot. She carefully took the little girl from his arms and held her softly in her arms. His dad walked over to Gulfs side and with little words congratulated him and squeezed his shoulder. He stood behind his wife and looked at the little baby girl in her arms. His eyes shined and a big smile pulled on his face. Gulf looked at the duo as they were both in their own world with his daughter. His little sister sat down next to him and started chatting with Gulf. He saw how eagerly she wanted to hold his baby too but she held herself and talked with Gulf first. It felt weird but good to have his family around him at such a special moment even though the pregnancy hadn't been planned at all. He saw how happy his mother and father were with their first grandchild. His mom was making promised to the little girl already as she would take her everywhere she wanted when she would grow up. Gulf laughed at that and sat up a bit more on the hospital bed. They chatted away and his sister grinned widely when she could finally hold Emma. His mom would stand guard at her side, scared she would drop her.

The door was pushed open once more and this time Mew's head popped into the room.

"Baby, I'm back." Mew said and walked over to Gulf and kissed his lips softly. He was congratulated by Gulfs parents after and Gulfs sister carried little Emma over to him and he took her in his arms again. Gulf had promised him.

Mew sat down next to Gulf on the bed and held the little girl in his arms as she looked up at him with her big chocolate eyes.

After Gulfs family left, Mew laid down beside Gulf and played their little girl in between them.

"she looks just like you. Just as pretty." Mew whispered and grinned up at Gulf.

"oh, stop it. She's got your nose." Gulf joked but blushed at Mew's words. Mew had taken such good care of him in the last few days. He slept at the hospital too even when Gulf insisted he would be alright on his own and they could go back home in a few days anyway, but he had insisted to stay at his side the whole stay. He had been showered in gifts from his family and Mew even had bought little designer clothes already for Emma with E.M. as her initials on all of them. Gulf had scolded him for spending so much money on ridiculous clothes but Mew still did it anyway. His response was that he wanted to spoil his little girl and Gulf had nothing to say about it. Gulf let him after that and he just shook his head when he would once again enter the room with new baby clothes.

He certainly wouldn't even run out of clothes for her, ever.

Mew was tracing his finger over his little girl's face and over her little hand. Emma grabbed his finger in her chubby little hand and pulled it to her mouth to suckle on Mew's finger. Gulf chuckled he leaned in and kissed her soft mob of hair and caressed her little fist that was holding Mew's finger.

A knock startled them both and Mew got up to open the door. Gulf sat back up again and held Emma in his arms as Mew walked back with Boat behind him.

"hi.... this is a surprise." Boat said a bit awkward. Gulf laughed.

"yes, well surprise! Meet little Emma."

Gulf had called Boat this morning. He had wanted to tell him before but he just didn't find the time to call him and now he had to tell him he was an omega and had already given birth. It did come as quite a shock to him but he was happy for Gulf. He had said he would come when he had the time to admire the little girl and would scold the man who knocked him up. Gulf had told him that it was alright and that he was happy with Mew. Now here he was. A bit awkwardly standing before the bed.

"ah! I bought you guys a little gift. I hope you like it, didn't know what to buy for a baby." he handed Mew a fluffy rabbit stuffed animal with big fluffy ears.

"thanks, I think Emma will like it" Mew said and he put it by all the other gifts they had gotten.

"want to see her?" Gulf asked and Boat al but skipped over to him and Gulf uncovered her little face as she had put her fist before them as she was sleeping soundly in Gulfs arms.

Boat was quiet for some time and held his breath as he watched the little girl. He pulled his arm out to touch it but before he could a lot of noises came from the hallway and the door was pushed open.

"Finally, I found it!" came a voice from the door.

Gulf looked up with Mew and Boat and in came Mild. He stumbled over his own feet as he walked in further.

"you know how big this hospital is!" He huffed and walked over to the other side of Gulfs bed.

He immediately started to coo at the little girl in Gulfs arms and Gulf chuckled. He hadn't expected anything less from Mild.

"Hello to you too Mild." Gulf laughed and Mild looked up at him.

"ah, sorry..." he said and smiled at Gulf. "that reminds me! Where's the man who did this to you!"

Mew just sat down and he suddenly stiffened in his seat at Mild's words.

"he would be just sitting over there" Gulf grinned as he saw the glare coming his way from Mew.

Mild turned around and saw Mew and marched over to him.

"you better take good care of him or I will come and beat you up!" he threatened and leaned over Mew to look intimidating but everyone just laughed at his words.

"don't worry." Mew laughed. "I will take very good care of Gulf and little Emma."

Mild saw how Mew's eyes turned soft at those words and he stepped back with a smile. "you better."

He turned back around and suddenly was greeted with the dark and soft eyes from the unknown man standing at the other side. He had not noticed him at all before he had marched into the room and he blushed. He felt something warm spread through his chest. He couldn't really put his finger on the feeling but it didn't feel bad at all.

"Sorry for not introducing me sooner, I'm can sometimes be a bit overwhelmed." Mild laughed and put his hand out for Boat to shake.

"I'm Mild. Gulfs friend from college." Mild said as Boat smiled at him and shook his hand. The feeling was unfamiliar it startled Mild.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Boat, Gulfs childhood friend." Boat said and stared at Mild. He felt weird. He shouldn't. He could sense that he wasn't an alpha and he was certainly not an omega so what were these feelings? he tried to shake it off but his eyes would be pulled to the tall handsome beta every time and when he looked, Boat would accidentally be looking too. He had a certain kind of aura around him that he felt. All over.

He tried keeping up a conversation with Gulf and he laughed and joked like he usually did but he could feel his gaze on him. His eyes that penetrated the back of his head as Boat now was seated by Mew and was having a conversation with him.

"Mild, do you want to hold her?" Gulf said, startling Mild and he nodded. "can I? I've never held a baby before..." Mild said nervously and Gulf just laughed.

"I'll help you it isn't that hard. Even I can do it!"

Gulf placed the little body in Mild arms and he felt how soft and warmth spread through his body from the little girl in his arms. She was sleeping soundly and fisting her hands in his shirt. He held his breath as he looked at the little girl in his arms.

"she's so pretty. Mew, you've done a good job with this one." Mild joked and the room filled with laughter. He didn't see that Boat's eyes were looking at him, holding Emma. Eyes that softened at the way Mild was holding a little baby in his arms. The confused feeling Boat also had looking at Mild.

When everyone had left Mew was once seated next to Gulf.

"did you feel that too?" Gulf asked. Mew was holding Emma and looked at Gulf.

"what should I feel?" Mew said, his focus completely on the little girl.

"no stupid, the tension in the room! With Mild and Boat!" Gulf fumed. "don't you think they acted weird with all the looks they gave each other? There was something..." Gulf said as he squinted his eyes as if thinking very hard.

"that's for them to figure out, I've got better things to do right now." Mew grinned and leaned in to kiss Gulf softly. Gulf smiled into the kiss as he felt his heartbeat faster with the soft gesture. He had fallen even more in love with Mew after he had given birth and he loved this new look on him. He could get so used to Mew being a father.

***

Mew was a little nervous. Why, well... he had prepared something for Gulf when they would get home. They were finally heading home after staying in the hospital for 5 days until Gulf was strong enough to go home.

"do you have everything?" Mew asked as he helped Gulf put everything in his bag.

"I think so yes, hold Emma for a second." Gulf carefully placed the little girl in Mew's arms and zipped up his bag. Mew held the warm body against him and smiled down at her. He never knew he could love something this much in his life. He kissed her head full of hair and when Gulf was finished placed her back in Gulfs arms. Together they walked to the car and Mew helped Gulf put Emma in the car seat. Gulf got into the backseat with her and Mew slipped into the driver seat before he started the car.

"I'm so ready to go home. I want to be able to enjoy this little girl with you in the comforts of our home." Gulf sighed. He was looking out of the window seeing all the familiar buildings pass by in a blur as Mew drove them back to the mansion.

Mew smiled to himself. On the inside, he was anything but relaxed. He was slowly getting even more nervous now that the moment was nearing. He had asked a few of his ex-subordinates to set everything up and he had gotten a text that everything was finished. His heartbeat sped up now that it was finally time.

After he had experienced the birth of his child he knew. He knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life together with Gulf and their sweet little baby girl. In the last few days, he had prepared everything. The only thing he had to do himself was getting the ring. With much care, he had designed it for it to suit Gulf the most. It didn't have to be all sparkly as Gulf wasn't girly at all and he loved that about him. He loved that he was able to fend for himself even though he was an Omega. He broke all the stigmas that had been placed in this world and he couldn't have wished for an even more perfect mate. He knew he was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

They neared the woods and Mew's hands started to get sweaty, even though he knew Gulf loved him. Was he even ready? Would he even say yes? All these worries now blew up his mind and Mew was contemplating what he had done would have been the right choice. He knew he wanted Gulf but now it was all up to Gulf. Would he want Mew in his life?

He pulled up to the porch of the house and stopped the car. Mew sighed deep before he got out and helped Gulf out of the backseat.

"you go in first I'll get the bags." Mew said, still sounding like his usual self, luckily.

"Okay, I'll wait inside for you." Gulf said and smiled down at the sleeping girl in his arms. He held her tightly against himself before he walked into the house.

Now Mew had to be quick. He opened the trunk and pulled a suit out that he had hidden there and without a little bit of shame, put it on quickly. He slicked his hair a bit and looked in the side-view mirrors of the car to see if everything sat perfectly. He pulled a little bag out of the trunk where he had the little box with the ring in and he breathed in deep. It was now or never.

He slowly walked to the front door and walked into the house. He smiled as he saw Gulf standing with his bag to him. The whole hall was decorated with red roses and lighted candles. The lights were dimmed and the floor was covered in rose pedals. The staircase was also decorated with roses and everything looked perfect. Mew walked over slowly to Gulf and leaned his head on his shoulder.

"M-Mew, what is all of this?" Gulf stuttered out and turned around. Mew took in a deep breath and when Gulf turned his way, he got down on one knee. And opened the little box. His shoulder was still a little stiff from the stitched but he managed to keep his hands straight without wincing.

"Mew...." Gulf mumbled. He held Emma close to his chest as he watched Mew get down on one knee before him. His blood rushed through his ears and his heart was beating against his chest. He watched as Mew pulled open the red velvet box in his hand and the most stunning ring appeared before him. It was a simple silver ring but it was covered in little black diamond. It was stunning... Gulf gasped and his lips trembled. This man.

"I know, our start wasn't ideal." Mew started and he cleared his throat. "I know I'm not perfect." Mew continued and Gulf held his breath. His eyes were tearing up already.

"I know that we haven't been together for long, but we have been through so much together. I know I love you with all my heart and I want to cherish you for the rest of my life. I know there doesn't exist a better and more perfect person than you in this world and I-I want to spend the rest of my life with you and our little girl. I love you so much, words can't describe it and I hope that you feel the same way, I hope you also want to spend the rest of your life together with me.

Mew finished his sentence with a trembling voice.

"Gulf... will you marry me?"

Gulf gasped and a tear fell from his eye. His fingers trembled as they held their little princess in his arms and he could only nod as he choked out a sob.

"yes... yes, yes, yes!" Gulf laughed as Mew stood up and pulled Gulf against him. Mew felt his worry fall from his shoulder as he held a crying Gulf in his arms. His own eyes couldn't keep it dry either and he kissed Gulfs face all over. As they pulled back, Mew took the black diamond ring out of the box and took Gulfs trembling hand. He looked as Gulf lovingly as he pushed the ring around his finger.

Little Emma decided to wake up at that moment from all the commotion and started to stir in Gulf arms. "I think she agrees too" Gulf chuckled and Mew wiped the tears from Gulfs eyes. Gulf looked up at mew and he felt the little sparks run through his body like they had done the very first time they touched. He leaned in to kiss Mew and when he pulled back, he leaned his forehead against Mew's and closed his eyes.

"I love you so much Mew. I also want to spend the rest of my life with you."
