Creation

A Chapter by Celestia

Shhhhh...

Luna was at the breakfast table already when Theo came down to eat. She stared at her cereal until he spoke.
"You know, Harmony predicted something would happen after the wedding."
Luna looked up. "Lexi would return." She sighed. "It's not going to happen. She's in exile."
Theo sat down, fiddling with his ring. "I'm scared."
"It's the day after. I'm not. It won't happen for years." She yawned. "Anyway." She blushed. "I don't blame you for the misunderstanding yesterday. Lexi made a pretty good me."
Theo rolled his eyes.
"It's not meant to be funny."
Theo laughed.
"Shut up!"
She reached out and slapped him playfully.
"What are you two doing?"
Luna looked up. Harmony was standing in the doorway. Her nightgown fell to her ankles, a shade of pale green. Her hair was brown and messy, cut around her ears. Luna bit her lip. "Stuff."
Harmony rolled her eyes and sat down. "What did you two do last night?"
"I didn't sleep," offered Luna. "I was up all night reading."
"Actually," said Theo, "We spent the night in the field, under the stars. With Jac."
"Jac helped up brainstorm baby names," said Luna.
"What?"
"For our kitten, Harmony."
"His name is Paul."
Harmony laughed. "There better not be a baby, you get that?"
"I hate kids," said Luna. "After the fiasco about the Sunstone."
Theo rolled his eyes. "But you said..."
Luna attempted to strangle him.
"She's-" Theo choked out, "going to have a baby!"
Harmony giggled. "That's not a lie, is it?"
Luna punched Theo on his cheek. "Of course it's true... Theo never lies."
Harmony sighed. "When did you find out?"
"Yesterday, after the wedding."
"Apparently it happened the night after the proposal."
Sola walked into the room, holding the kitten. "Paul is- oh. What's going on?"
Theo pointed at Luna. "You're going to be an aunt."
Sola dropped Paul and screamed.

At this point in time, I'd like you to be aware of the Immortals "ages," which is one year in appearance for every million years they have been an Immortal.
