future plans - future gennie
he's holding jake and lennox's baby girl in his arms and he can't help but feel completely comfortable and at ease. a few years ago, he would have stood stiffly until someone finally took the baby away from him, but now he's bobbing around, bouncing from foot to foot, speaking quietly to the bright eyed girl looking up at him.
it's calming and has his mind whirling all at once. he's starting to think about how it would feel to hold his own; to see winnie's green eyes staring back at him and his light hair on top their head. to watch his stubbornness and her energetic energy come back to show them just what their parents went through with them. sleepless nights, long days, and the ongoing anxiety that came with a new baby was something that seemed completely achievable to get through when it was your own.
george's words dropped off and he looked up when he heard the shuffling of feet in the doorway. he smiled as winnie came into his line of vision. sending a small 'hi' her way, he went back to looking down at his niece, reaching a hand up to soothingly stroke the hairs on the top of her head as her eyes started to fall shut.
"it'd be nice to have one of our own, yeah?" george spoke quietly, quirking his brow slightly as he glanced up at winnie. he wasn't necessarily talking about trying for a baby right away or even having one in the next year, but it was a thought he was completely comfortable with. until then, he was completely fine giving his full attention to his adorable niece, but it was kinda nice to think about.
