The end of the year was approaching and with it the party that was celebrated every last day. Surprisingly, the sweet hills of Tottoland had turned completely white because of the snow that hadn't stopped falling for a couple of months; you noticed how amazed the inhabitants of Sweet City were and it was nice to hear the voices of the little ones playing with it in such a naive way.

Of course, you had seen it a long time ago, when the snow fell on Dressrosa and you could admire its immaculate mantle behind a window of the palace. One of the few quiet moments that existed in your stormy past.

At that moment, your thoughts were interrupted by Big Mom's announcement.

《ONLY ONE DAY LEFT BEFORE NEW YEAR'S EVE AND I WANT EVERYTHING TO BE PERFECT!! ALL MEMBERS OF THE CHARLOTTE FAMILY MUST BE THERE FOR THE BIG DINNER, MAMAMAMA!!》

Most of them cheered at that, while the older sons and daughters remained impassive.

《I guess that's not new to you...》  You said raising your voice making yourself heard by the giants.

《Of course not, it's a ritual that is repeated every year. But it's not that bad and I'm sure you'll enjoy it...》  Your husband replied with his usual composed attitude.

You hinted at a smile on hearing that he wasn't bored.
《I see. Well, it's the first time I've celebrated it this way.》

Katakuri looked at you lowering his gaze.
《Why, what did you do before?》

You haven't stopped watching the snowflakes fall on the path outside the front door.

《...I deserved this scar, last time.》

There was a long moment of silence. Katakuri knew it was Doflamingo who provoked it...
Then, you felt his hand caress your nape, covered with a warm woolen collar.

《Every time I see it think about how much I wish had been with you in that moment...but now, every time I kiss it, I just think how beautiful it is.》

Katakuri took you from behind and began to kiss your head, your ears and your neck. You wrapped yourself inside his scarf and felt his warmth; now that it was colder, you loved being so close to him and he couldn't help but find you adorable when you sneaked into his scarf.

But you two were interrupted right after by Perospero.

《Perororo, I hate to disturb but I have to remember Mama gave orders...anyway, the girls are waiting for you in the dining room Y/n-chan.》

Katakuri looked at you and let you go.

《Okay, I'll go. See ya!》  You greeted the two men, in particular you winked at Katakuri.

《How are things between you and her, brother?》  The older asked after they were left alone.

《Good.》  Katakuri replied simply, even if he didn't understand why he asked that so suddenly.

《You know what Mama is like...she would like to know when you will have...》  Perospero didn't finish the sentence, but Katakuri understood very well what he meant.

《I shouldn't talk about this with her, but only with Y/n. I don't want to force her and Mama shouldn't worry about it...we have time for that, anyway.》

Perospero watched the giant brother with small eyes.
《...are you sure you have time for that?》

There was a resounding silence between the two pirates; the idea of ​​becoming a father certainly didn't frighten Katakuri, but what worried him most was you. He didn't want to rush the times as he felt that you were still too young to become a mother.
