Rom sits child on lap smiling as snow gently falls down around her. Dressed in a big parka with an knitted toque she is all nice and warm as so is Devs in her little snow suite bundled so tight she looks like a little snow man her cheeks rosy red and her giggling hanging in the air in a cloud of moisture. Sitting in all the time had almost driven Rom to insanity as so she decided to go for a walk, with a brief stop at her favourite coffee stop for a warm pick me up her and Devs armed with their stroller headed out in to a winter wonderland. They had made their way weaving up and down streets as the sun set and the pretty lights turned on. Rom watching her daughter in the stroller trying to catch snow flakes with her hands then not understanding where they went once she re opened her mitten and trying again. She was growing up so fast Rom couldnÂ’t believe it, and so was Rom she had transformed from a lost young girl to a women and mother so quickly it would be amazing if anyone had really known her when she was younger. Rom slowly moved to her feet setting Devs on the ground as she teetered and tottered before falling back down on her bottom. Laughing slightly the Rom kneels down and picks her daughter up by the armpits and sets her on her feet again. Gently taking Devs small hands in her own Rom slowly guided the small girl until she took three small steps in to her mothers arm. Quickly Rom lifted her up and began twirling around the snow covered courtyard of the school dancing to an un heard melody only Rom and Devs could hear.
Temyc walked silently through the snow, he almost didnt see rommy till he was close. "Oh hey...." he smiled at his child, who seemed to enjoy the snow very much. Temyc didnt really...it felt odd against his fur and causes it to feel wet slightly or get clumped together if thr snow stuck to it. "Shes getting big, Rom" he smilef aintly at Rom..he knew how she didnt like being around him...but he wanted to be a more involved father.
Rom looked up and smiled softly “Are you kidding she’s huge!!!" Rom said with a laugh as she hoisted her daughter in to the air and rubbed her nose in to Devs stomach, Devs response just being a loud giggle and squeal as she grabbed a hold of Roms hair before looking over and seeing the larger looming figure talking with her mom. This was dad Devs had come to associate with his scent and giggled softly. “She loves the snow which is good, gives me a chance to get out of the house with out her getting all fussy" Slowly Rom cradled Devs back in to her arms slowly passing her off to her father before Rom fell back in the snow and began making a snow angel. It was something aobut winter that put her in a good mood, especially seeing all the pretty lights and Christmas….Christmas what are we going to about Christmas Rom said “So how we going to do this holiday thing?" she said looking up at Temyc from the ground. “Shared custody, group thing what do you want to do?"
Temyc softly coo'd to Dev in his arms who held close so she could stay warm and he trailed a finger along the side of her cheek. "i dont know, Rom..how ever you want it to be is fine...Chiara...is uncomfortable around you...but.....well...I dont know" he frowned and looked at her. "I have something for dev...but...she wouldnt even understand the meaning of it yet...its a family tradition thing....but i have a feeling in a few years it will be harder to see her..." his eyes saddened as he continued to watch is daughter.
Rom gets to her feet and dusts herself off looking at her snow angel with a soft smile. “well what ever you want works, And don’t say that, its up to her how much she wants her father in her life I don’t ever want to stop that from her, I want her to know you almost as well as she knows me. But I know things get tough, especially after you go and start a family of your own and what not. She might get it now but if you really would like to wait that is also good to" Rom smiles softly as she watches her daughter giggle at the feel of her fathers finger across the fur on her cheek her lets kicking to the sides to show her entertainment as she gurgled out some form of “That’s nice" Rom laughed getting a last little bit of melting snow off her shoulder “She thinks she talk, all the time I just hear her going at it having a conversation about….anything really, think she was talking to a stuffed bear the other day about the weather, it was snowing."
Temyc nodded and looked up at Rom "Yeah...then i will give it to her...but i worry you know..cuz shes a girl..she wont want to be with a dad...exspecially a protective one...im going to be real protective too.." he chuckled. "Im not allowing her to even look at boys..."
Rom slowly eases Devs back in to her arms looking at her face and smiling kissing it gently on the her cheek “But boys wont keep their eyes off of you will they baby girl" she handed Devs back to her father with a smile. Devs pink cheeks looking pinker then normal as she giggled and started gnawing on her fathers fur gently mostly gumming at it “ohh yeah she’s teething by the way “Rom shrugged as she went to the stroller and grabbed her coffee taking a warm sip of it to regain lost feeling in different parts of her body." She isn’t speaking yet but teething, cant walk either, tries but just falls on her bum, luckly she is cubby and had extra padding, but ohh she will be a looker when she grows up.Our pretty little girl"
"yes yes she is" she said with a happy little smile Ohhh your not supposed to be any where are you? We didnt get in the way of any plans you may of had?" Romhad only spoken the words when a tiny little snow flake had landed in Devsw nose and she began to sneeze up a storm
Temyc was about to answer but Dev began sneezing. "Oh...baby girl..." he said softly and wiped his thumb lightly on her nose, brushign off whatever may be causing her to sneeze. 'No..i have nowhere to go..i came out here to check the temperature... i may just have to gain body mass soon.... my blood doesnt like this cold much..." he looked up at Rom and smiled lightly.
Rom laughs lightly as she spins in a small circle and stops "mine loves it,loves snow too . i can tlel when its going to show you know, all on my own! its a magical thing, snow is magical. Well i know its just weather but still magical and i love winter time" Rom stoped slightly to fix her scarf before she began to spin slightly again.
"Well arnt mamals the luckiest thing in the world.....herm..." he looked down at Devs "I wonder how much of my reptillian blood shes got going in her.....maybe shes got scales for skin...." he raised his brow and smiled at Dev giving her a big kiss on her cheek
Rom laughed "she gets cold or hot way to easy, but she has fur, pink fur which is funny but she picked up your red pigment, atleast shes nit all white like me, she'd be horrible to keep clean' she said with a small giggle as she watched her daughter with her father "Its hard to say really, atleast untill shes older"
