ON:

Draxx awoken to discover Melody was no longer lying next to him but a lone PADD was.

Hey sweetie. Had an early start. Didn't want to wake you, you looked so peaceful. See you later x

The Bajoran found himself smiling. A few months ago, this situation would have had him running for the hills. But now he was comfortable. He could have a proper family here. Sansa he already adored, Melody he knew if he let himself he could fall hard.

He pulled on his clothes and walked out into the lounge area.

A voice seemingly from nowhere suddenly rang out, "Ahhhh we meet again Mr Bond."

Draxx looked round confused. A chair in the corner suddenly rotated revealing Sansa sat there stroking Nibbles who was sat in her lap a la blow felt.

Draxx opened his mouth a couple of times and then gave up trying to work things out. "Sweetheart, I have no idea what your talking about."

"Its an old Earth film Dad. About a spy called James Bond. Very suave and dashing. Just like you actually. And he speaks with many woman, hopefully not like you," she said with a frown.

Draxx took the chair opposite her really hoping the ninja hedgehog wouldn't make an attempt to jump the distance between them. "I was a bit of idiot with woman before your mum and you came along, I have to admit that to you as I wouldn't want any secrets with my family but I promise you thats over with. You two are my priority now. The only women in my life and thats only way I want things Sansa."

Sansa smiled at her father. “That’s great dad and I’m glad to see you and mum getting along so well together.

Draxx turned towards the door.”

“Hey. Where do you think you’re sneaking off to? You promised to take me shopping remember? Illl need some new mini skirts and hot pants and makeup.....”

Draxx spluttered “Makeup?????? Mini skirts??? I’m not sure about those!”

Sansa frowned and folded her arms. “How about some nice dreses then?”

Draxx relaxes a bit. “I think we can manage that Pumpkin.”

“Good.” Sansa replied. “Oh and don’t forget about Nibbles. She’s part of this family too you know.” As she held out the small hedgehog to him.

Draxx looked at the small animal sceptically. “We’ll see about that dear.”
