When Kaia got out of the shower and changed into comfortable clothing, Lucy was already gone so she could pick Ona up from the airport.

Mapi had stuck to her promise to Alexia and didn't let Lucy pick Fabian up yet, but tickling his feet and trying to make him giggle was allowed.

Both Kaia and Mapi knew that Lucy and Ona would turn up here to spend the evening with Fabian, so Mapi made sure to prepare enough food.

Since Kaia was sofa ridden and now under a newborn, she had Mapi on FaceTime while the blonde was in the kitchen.

Mapi was attempting a chicken cacciatore, but she FaceTimed Kaia to help jog her memory on a few things, certain ingredients or temperatures.

It was also nice just chatting away while they were both doing their own things in separate rooms.

The ringing doorbell stops Mapi mid stir and she's quick to move the pan off the heat. "I'll be right back."

Kaia only chuckles, knowing she's going to see more than one person come rushing into the living room having probably ignored Mapi at the door.

When Mapi does open the door, Lucy darts under her arm and she's left staring at two Spanish faces. "Ale, you're here too." She grins.

Alexia hugs Mapi again, almost like she didn't congratulate her for becoming a mother only a week ago. "Can I hold him? Or is he asleep?"

"He was awake thirty seconds ago, but I couldn't say for sure now." Mapi chuckles, letting Alexia and Ona into the cozy flat that's filled with aromas and spices. "He's in the living room with Kaia, go meet him." She urges them both.

"Oh god." Ona's smile slips, as does Alexia's giddiness. "How is Kaia?"

"More pissed off than seriously injured, so that's better I guess." Mapi sighs dryly, following them down the hall. "She's out for the rest of the season though, possibly the next Euro qualifiers too."

By the time everyone was in the living room, Kaia had a very curious baby now lying on her chest; grunting and trying to turn to all the noises but he wasn't strong enough.

Kaia looked over to the archway for Mapi, but when she saw Alexia her smile widens. "Ale, come take him. He wants to see everyone."

Alexia's smile falls in shock but then slowly reappears; albeit hesitantly. "Um, how am I supposed to hold him? He can't support his head yet, right?"

"No he can't. Hold him like a newborn." Mapi instructs in an encouraging tone, leaning on the sofa just behind Kaia so she can watch it all. "On his back, his head rested on the inside of your elbow."

Alexia nods along and sits down at Kaia's side to make it easier, letting out a watery chuckle when she's suddenly met by curious yet stern dark green eyes looking into hers. "God, I'm getting all emotional."

Lucy filmed the trade, making sure to get the two emotional mothers in the shot too as Alexia takes her godson into her arms for the first time.

Ona silently joins Lucy on the sofa, the two of them sharing a loving smile behind the camera.

Fabian stares up at Alexia, examining the new face slowly; over her smile, her nose, up to her watering eyes and to her bleached hair. But then his attention went down, to the warmth of Alexia's body and the arms around him.

Fabian reached out and grabbed either side of Alexia's hand, it practically being the size of him as he attempts to pull it closer to his face.

So Alexia helps, she complies to whatever way Fabian pulls her hand until a little slap is delivered to the back of her hand, right on her 11 tattoo.
