"What do you think he'll look like?", Primrose asked her brother, in anticipation for the birth of her new brother.

"Like momma or daddy, or like us", he shrugged.

"Will they still love us? Momma and daddy?",

"Of course, silly! When they had you, they didn't stop loving me", he assured her.

"What if he'll be mean to us? What if-",

"Stop worrying, Prim. He's going to be the best, because he'll be our little brother. We get to teach him a lot of things. And who can be mean to you? You're the sweetest girl I know",

"Guys?", they looked up at their dad.

His smile was radiant and he looked exhausted, but still over the moon. Augustus jumped up excited, while Primrose sat down, still scared.

"Are you ready to meet your new brother?",

"Yes!", Augustus cheered.

Ryder noticed the silence of his daughter and bowed to her concerned. She looked scared and tears were about to stream down her little cheeks.

"What's wrong, baby doll?", he asked.

"Will you stop loving me now you have another baby?",

His heart just broke. The last months he has been so focused on caring for Mona that he had completely forgotten to assure Primrose.

"There'll never be a day when I stop loving you. Don't you ever think that again. How can I not love my little girl?",

"And momma?",

"Your momma loves you very much, both of you", he pulled Augustus to him.

"I told you, Prim, they'll never stop loving us!", he encouraged his brother.

"What if the baby will hate me?!",

"He won't, honey, nobody does", Ryder assured her.

"But what if-".

"Why don't we just see ourselves? See if your opinion changes once you've seen him", he suggested.

Primrose held into her dad scared, while he carried her inside. Her mom laid sweating on the bed, but matched her dads radiant smile from earlier. She looked so happy with the baby laying in his arms.

"Momma!", Augustus ran towards her, excited.

"My handsome boy, do you want to see your new baby brother?", she asked, he nodded.

The same brown hair as their father and the same baby blue eyes. He looked like Ryder, a smaller version of him, only his hair was a bit lighter.

"What's his name?",

"Orion",

Augustus took in his little brother, holding his tiny hands. Mona smiled brightly and looked up to see a scared Primrose, she frowned confused. Ryder sighed snd moved closer.

"Prim is scared Orion will hate her",

"Baby", Mona held her arms out for her daughter.

Ryder took Orion from her and handed her Primrose. Mona tightened her arms around her daughter and showered her with kisses.

"Orion is made out of the love between your father and me. That will automatically make Orion love you, because we love you so much",

"Will you stop loving me?",

"Never, whatever happens, you're my little girl and nothing can make me stop love you",

"Why don't you just hold his hand?", Ryder suggested.
