//------------------------------// // Chapter 4 // Story: Lifelong Partners // by Creativa-Artly01 //------------------------------// That afternoon, while Vapor Trail rests in the main room, Sky Stinger tends to all the baby's needs except for nursing of course. Sky can't help but smile. He's so glad to be able to help with their daughter. A few minutes later, Vapor enters the nursery and takes the little filly from Sky to nurse her. Once she's done nursing little Airess, she burps her then returns her to his arms and goes back to her place on the couch with her book. Sky takes the baby with a smile on his face. He's loving this whole father gig. A few minutes later, he gets a call from Sky Gazer, his sister. He hands the baby back to Vapor and picks up the phone. "Hey Gazer," he says over the phone. "Hey Stinger," she replies. "Did you forget about me coming over to visit you, Vapor, and my new niece?" "Oh shoot, it completely slipped my mind," replies Sky. "It's okay, I'm still an hour away. I'll see you then!" replies Gazer. An hour later, Sky Gazer knocks at their door and Sky Stinger lets her in with a smile on her face. "It's good to see you, big sis," he says. "Good to see you too, little brother," replies Gazer. "Now where's my little niece?" Sky Stinger leads his sister back to the nursery, where Airess is playing in her crib. Sky Gazer looks at the little filly with wide eyes. "What's her name?" she asks. "Airess," replies Sky Stinger. "That's a beautiful name for a beautiful little filly," replies Gazer with a smile. "Can I hold her?" Sky Stinger nods and picks Airess up out of her crib and hands her to Sky Gazer. Sky Gazer smiles as she rocks the little baby in her hooves. She's so glad to be an aunt to such a beautiful little filly. She can't help but consider herself so lucky. A few hours later, Sky Gazer enjoys dinner with Vapor Trail and Sky Stinger before finally heading back to her home in Las Pegasus. Afte all, she still has work in the morning as a waitress at the Flim Flam Cafe in the Golden Hotel. Sky Stinger smiles as he puts the plates in the sink. He's so glad he got to see his sister again. He's also glad that she liked her niece. He couldn't ask for more. That's for certain.
