War Torn

Chapter 86

Felicity pov
I laid in bed with Malcolm laying on a Brest feeding pillow and Sofia using my stomach as a pillow. Milo was also laying on my leg. The door open slowly and Harry came in holding Dane. He came over and added Dane to the pile of children.

"Merry christmas, Felicity," Harry whispered then kissed me.
"Merry Christmas." I Said.

A light knock came at the door and Sofia lifted her head.

"Ssh darling go back to sleep." I whispered as Will poked his head in,

"Hey come on the children want to open presents before church." He Said.
"Alright," Harry Said.

We woke our children. I put my prosthetic on and then put my robe on before picking Malcolm up.

"Mummy, what's going on?" Dane asked half awake.
"We are going to see what Santa brought you." I Said.

That woke Dane up and he jumped off the bed and ran to the door. Sofia stood on the bed wanting Harry to carry her.

"Let's go princess," Harry Said as he picked her up.
"Is he going to be alright?" Harry asked about Malcolm.
"He'll be fine, He was just fed and changed." I Said as I picked Malcolm up.

We went to the parlor and the rest of the family was there, some more awake than others. I sat down and Sofia and Dane went over with their cousins who were patiently waiting in front of the Christmas tree.

"Who's going to pass the presents out?" Charles asked.
"The King!" Harry exclaimed waking Malcolm.
"Ssh," I hissed as I bounced Malcolm to get him to go back to sleep.
"Way to go Harry," Eugenie Said. 
"I got excited," He Said ashamed.
"He's alright," I said reassuring Harry I wasn't upset at him.

Will passed the presents out and all the children were very eager to open the presents. We decided that the children should open the presents in age order so Louise went first. The children opened one present before the next child went.

"Alright It's Malcolm's turn." Autumn said.
Harry picked up one of Malcolm's presents.
"Is he still sleeping?" Harry asked as he tore the paper off.
"He's fast asleep." I Smiled.
"It's about time," Harry chuckled as he took the little white box out.

Harry struggled with tape on the box so I let him use my finger nails to slice the tape. He finally got it open and took out a onesies with a kilt sewn on with my grandmother's clan tartan.

"Who was this from?" I asked as I grabbed the wrapping. I read it and it said Eugenie and Jack.

"How did you know which tartan was right?" I asked.
"What?" Harry asked.
"Eugenie How did you know my granny was from the Mackenzie Clan?" I asked.
"Oh I have my sources." She smiled.

I gave Malcolm to Harry and got up and went over to Eugenie and hugged her.

"Thank you so much," I Said.
"I knew you'd love it. It was surprisingly hard to track down your brother to ask him. Without you or Harry finding out." She said.
"Well thank you for doing this. It means a lot." I Smiled.
"You are welcome." She said.

I went back and then Louise opened one of her presents from Santa. It was a pair of new riding boots.

•••

All of the presents were opened and we were all sitting around letting the children play for a while before we all had to get ready for Christmas morning church.

"Wait I almost forgot." Harry Said as he gave me Malcolm.
"Forgot what? All the presents are open." I said.

Harry gave me a cheeky smile then left the room.
