"Of course," he stood and helped Ssitris. It was a little hard, because of his height, but he finally had the man standing in the circle of his arms, huffing just a bit.
"There.....where's your shoes? I'll get them for you and we'll be on our way." He smiled and kissed him softly, returning the favor.

"By the door." he murmured, waiting for Xemas to exit the room before he slowly began to waddle after him. He really hated waddling. He felt so stupid doing it. But how else could he get around with a stomache the size of Jeskara? Crawl?
He panted a bit, out of breathe by the time he made it to the door. "Okay, help me...I can't see my feet..."

"Just don't step on me," he teased, bringing the shoes over so Ssitris didn't have to come forward. He knelt and prompted the man to lift a foot , slipping the shoe on when he did, doing the same for the other.

He wiggled his toes a bit. "Thanks." he smiled. "Celrie....are you coming?" He asked over his shoulder, calling for the vampire.

"Yeah!" The vampire called back, appearing moments later. "Just washed up the dishes." Xemas smiled and opened the door, taking Ssitris' arm and leading the man out, going at his pace.
"Just take it easy, hm? We'll walk as slow as we have to."
"So touching," Celrie grinned and patted them both. "I'd like to come, but Eravan's finally got a day off. He'll have a fit if i'm not there so....have fun and enjoy the apartment. Xemas, give ssitris his tray of goodies when you get there." He closed the door behind them, waving and heading off down the sidewalk.

Ssitris pouted a bit, but smiled anyway, waving after the other life-bearer. He moved his arm out of Xemas' hold, and instead laced their fingers shyly. "Goodies? A tray of them??" he seemed to perk right up. "Just for me???"

"Yep, a whole thing, just for you. It looks delicious, I almost gave in and ate some," he teased, squeezing Ssitris' hand, starting down the street with him. "You can relax on the new couch I just got, and eat something. Then i can show you around again. It changed alot, but I think you'll like it."
Xemas had even worked on getting Ssitris' other suprise: the nursery, done. Celrie had helped out a lot, and it was done in blues and soft creams. The incubus had worked into last night on finishing the wallpaper trim at the top.

He smiled. "Yeah, but you didn't!" He was happy. Really happy, with Xemas. The boy had not only stepped up four months ago, but also kept leaping high and higher. Ever since he told Xemas about his pregnancy, he'd stopped going out. He started working harder, always there whenever he was sick, or upset. He even had a slight romantic side to himself now. Such as the time when he bought him flowers. Well, more like he payed off Yeest to smuggle some back from Sensafora, and they were half dead by the time they got to him...on top of that it turned out Xemas was allergic to them and before he could get them to the expantant mother, he was covered in rashes and had burned the things to high hell.

"Nope," he shook his head, dark hair falling into his eyes. "It's all there for ya. I figured, after half the presens i got for you that didn't last, this one should atleast make it until you see it," he grinned, rubbing his thumb over the back of the others hand. Xemas loved teasing him and taking care of him. In the months that they'd been together, he'd been trying his hardest to learn the ups and downs of Ssitris.
The man had been a puzzle for the incubus to figure out. He'd spent tons of time with the man, learnign everything, and was glad he'd finally agreed to come to the apartment. The next big jump would be the baby, but Xemas thought he was sufficiently prepared...maybe....
"I have another gift for you, but it's a suprise, so I can't tell you."

He looked at him suspiciously. "What kind of...suprise?" He was a bit wary of the prospect of another suprise. "Not something dead I hope. Or a stripper..." he warned before laughing a bit, holding his stomache and pouting. It was a chore to even laugh now. "Oh, just a month more...this is really a pain, you know. Carrying him all the time like this..." he sighed. "And I'm all swullen...and I forget what anything below this kid looks like..." he sighed dejectedly.

"It's a good surprise," he assured him, winking. "I'm not so bad as to get you a stripper. That's my job," he smirked like the evil little incubus he used to be and raised a brow. "Ssitris, trust me. You're sexy as hell. Even carrying the kid, you're gorgeous, so don't worry." He squeezed his fingers again.
"Almost there. Tired yet?"

He nodded. "I...I think I'll make it though. It's just a few more houses." Geez....two blocks and he was out of breath. Like he didn't feel unhealthy enough as it was. His back ached even more, and now his poor feet felt like he was stepping on nails every two seconds. And now the baby seemed to be having a party, and was kicking and punching, elbowing and kneeing him everywhere. At least it hadn't sucker punched his bladder yet.....'Spoke to soon...' he thought with a whine.

Xemas rubbed his back with his free hand and spoke softly to him until they reached the door. He led Ssitris up the small case of stairs and had t dig in his pocket for the keys. “Here we are….okay…” He unlocked it and let it swing open for the man, switching on the front lights. “Explore to your hearts content. If you go to the first room in the hallway, you’ll find your surprise. I’ll put the tray of goodies on the coffee table in the living room for you when you’re ready to sit down, hm?” He turned and gently tugged Ssitris in. “Welcome home baby,” he smiled, genuinely anf leaned up to kiss him softly.

He blushed and smiled. "Thank you..." He waddled off to use the rest room first, mumbling about the baby and it's energy.
When finished, he roamed the apartment. "It's changed..." he murmured. It was...strange. The barren apartment being furnished, and all warm and cozy. He stopped at the closed door. What could be in there anyway? It was empty before, except for boxes and junk that Xemas had collected. Maybe it was clean now? Or, his heart sank slightly, had he made it...into a bedroom for him...? Did Xemas not love him enough...? True, he didn't have a lot of things, and if it was a room, it'd probably be bare save for a bed and dresser.
He chewed his lip and placed his hand on the brass knob, turning it slowly and listening to it squeak. Finally, with a deep breath, he pushed it open, and nearly dropped to the floor on the spot. He covered his mouth and stared in awe.

Xemas smiled and went on his way, grabbing up Celrie's tray and setting it out on the coffee table for the man. He made sure the comfortable pillows were placed so Ssitris could rest his aching back before going back out into the hallway. The man was standing in front of the nursery and the incubus came up behind him, circling his very pregnant stomach with his arms. He lay his chin on the side of Ssitris' shoulder.
"So...what do you think? I had...no idea about toys and things, so that's up to you. But I got some clothes, and the necessities for the first two weeks or so..." The crib and everythign had cost him alot, but he didn't mind. He still had enough to pay bills and maybe get groceries for the two of them.
