(Flashback) Almost seven years ago
Fourteen long, painful hours of labor and the baby Cassie carried for nine months was in her arms at last. Everything was taken care of, she was wheeled into a private room, urged to sleep after such a long delivery, and left alone (well, mostly left alone, her father at least, had left). Really, she should sleep. She was exhausted. But she also had an adrenaline rush from hell.

Mostly, though, she didn't want to let go of her son.

It was funny, Cassie thought Scotty would look like Nate but she saw more of herself in him. Of course it was obvious who his father was, given away by the features of his tiny face, not to mention his dark skin and hair.

"Hey baby." She said softly.

Please don't let Kang show up now. Please God, please.

	"I know." Cassie smiled. "You've been great, Kristoff." Except for the freaking out during delivery but she'd give him a pass on that one. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You -- both of you -- should probably try to get some rest shortly. I shall need to go home fairly soon, to see to Vincent and such." There were other adults available for any emergency, but his brother needed a lot of checking up on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know." She wanted to ask him to stay. She wanted to tell him she was scared that Kang might show up the moment he left. What if the moment she closed her eyes to sleep, what if when she opened them again Scotty would be gone? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Despite this, Kristoff pulls up a chair for a little while yet. He wants to tell her that it is all going to be all right. He wishes he could be sure. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassie was quiet for a while longer before saying. "Do you want to hold him? Just for a little bit." Considering the way she'd stubbornly refused to let the boy out of her arms since they gave them to her, that offer was rather generous. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff understands that as he nods and very, very carefully takes the baby into his arms. "It is quite good to finally meet you," he says very softly, with a slight smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassie grinned. "I wonder if he can tell you're the one he kept hearing when he was still inside me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Difficult to say. Certainly it would not be as easy to place as yorus." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I bet he does. He doesn't seem to mind you holding him." Which was true, although perhaps partly because Scotty was tired. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff just smiled. (Reply to this)(Parent)
