Ink's POV

  I sat in the hospital bed, holding PJ is my arms. I hummed a lullaby while he slept.

  The door of the room slowly opened. I looked up to see my husband, Error. Gray held his hand but when the child saw me, he walked out to me.

Error lifted up our son before setting him on my bed. My husband pulled a chair next to me. We kissed as a quick greeting.

Gray noticed his little brother in my arms. He seemed almost fascinated by the small being.

Me: Do you want to hold your baby brother?

Gray looked up and nodded. I carefully gave him PJ.

Me: Be very careful.

My son awkwardly held the small baby before offering him back to me.

  I turned towards Error and gave him PJ. Error stood up, holding his son with a smile.

Error: Hi.

  PJ threw his arm up and reached for his father's face. Error put his hand above his child, letting PJ grab his index finger.

  Error smiled at PaperJam, making me smile at the sight.

  He held PJ to let me rest. Gray crawled up and laid on my chest. I kissed his head before leaning into my pillow.

Error and I talked in our small moment of peace.

Error: I can't believe we have two kids now.

Me: You're the one who wanted two kids.

He smiled, looking at his newborn son.

The door suddenly opened. My doctor came in quietly.

Doctor: Everything has come out right. You're good to go.

(One Year Later)

The house was lively. Error was cooking while I played with our sons.

  The baby watched me intently. He lightly giggled. Gray curiously watched as he sat next to me.

PJ turned his head towards me. He started to push himself up. Then, he took his first step.

Me: Error. Jammy is walking.

My husband quickly rushed into the living room. He watched with a smile.

Our youngest son wobbled to me before falling. I grabbed PJ to support him.

Me: You did so well.

(Time Skip)

I put PJ in his bed. Gray held onto my pant as he watched.

Gray: Is PJ going to get more love than me? Since he's newer.

I turned around and cupped Gray's cheeks.

Me: No, baby. Just because Jammy is here, it doesn't mean that I don't love you.

I kissed Gray's forehead.

Me: No matter what, you are my first child and I love you. I will always love you, Gradient.

Gray tightly hugged. He buried himself into my brown scarf.

Gray: I love you, Mama.

Me: I love you too, Gradient...
