Chase frowned deeply as the sun began to set. It had been ten years since he had taken Jack Spicer as his consort on the very day he hated most. His birthday. For the past ten years Spicer had not once failed to make his day a good one and then, for no reason whatsoever, he had disappeared. Chase brought the crumpled and worn note into his view once more:

Hey Chase, I'm gonna go away for a while. It's really really important and really special! I'll see you in a few months!

-Jack

Chase crumpled the paper and stared out the window once more. He sighed before turning to look at a painting on the far wall. He kept that area lit, never letting the beautiful picture of his mother be shrouded in darkness. He remembered when Spicer had presenting the painting to him. Five years had passed and it still stayed perfect. Every year on his own birthday, Jack would take the painting down and retouch it before placing it back and returning to his tasks.

"Hey Chase, come in here please!" Jack's voice carried out of his throne room and he turned sharply, unaware of how his young consort had gotten in so quietly. When he rounded a corner and entered, he slowed down and looked at the... thing in his arms from afar. Jack turned his head and beckoned him over with a nod, hands obviously full with... whatever it was.

"Fu...." The thing spoke at him and he rounded the chair only to stop and stare at it.

"That's right, Xen, fu is here." Jack beamed at the boy who returned it with a circular roll of his head.

Chase knelt down and reached out for Xen, blinking when the baby grabbed onto his finger. He looked at him, chewing on whatever was on the inside of his pacifier and a small blush colored his cheeks. The marks matching Jack's obscured the tint partially but it stood out strongly against the white skin.

"Fu...." Chase murmured the words and Xen nodded and kicked his feet gently, careful not to curl his hand on Jack's and not to strike his feet harshly against his legs.

"Xen...." Xen nodded again and looked to Jack.

"Mu." He looked at Chase and wiggled his eyebrows. "Fu." He tilted his head then and tugged their hands to his face. "Xen."

Jack smiled widely at them both, eyes closed as waves of exhaustion washed over him. Chase smiled softly at Jack and leaned in to kiss him gently. He then picked Xen up,cradling him close and nuzzling his stomach.

"Your mother needs to rest." Xen nodded and giggled when Chase took him out of the room.

Not a bad birthday after all.
