Drabble: Naptime

[elvenavari]

Fandom: Twilight
Pairing: Jasper/Seth
Prompt: Nap
Dedication: For lovergyul who wanted some Seth & Luka time.


Seth sat on the couch with his back resting against the arm as he read a book. Luka was on the floor playing with his trains. Every now and then Seth would look away from his book to watch Luka, making sure the four year old didn’t put a metal train anywhere it shouldn’t go. Satisfied, Seth went back to his book, though really he was thinking of his husband and how much he missed him. Jasper was away hunting and would be gone for another two days. He wasn’t the only one who missed Jasper, Luka had been asking at least twice a day when his papa was coming home.

“Daddy?”

Seth looked away from his book, finding Luka standing at the end of the couch, his blanket in hand. “Yeah baby?”

“’M tired…” Luka said softly rubbing one of his golden eyes with a fist.

“You wanna take a nap with daddy?” Seth questioned with a smile. His little Luka was so adorable. Luka nodded and climbed up onto the couch. Seth held his book away with one hand while Luka settled himself with his head resting on Seth’s shoulder. Luka held his blanket close, practically snuggling with it, as he brought his thumb to his mouth. Seth leaned his head against Luka’s after pressing a light kiss to his hair. He knew his high body heat would put Luka to sleep quickly, it always did.

“Daddy,” Luka mumbled.

“Hm?”

“Wadda read’n?”

“You want a story Luka?”

“Mhm.”

Seth glanced at his book and dubbed it inappropriate for Luka by a few years, so he improvised. “Alright, once upon a time… there was a young dark haired prince who fell in love with a golden haired knight…”

No, not really as much. I haven't had time. My job takes up a lot more time than I ever thought it would. I've wanted to start the Jasper/Seth multi-chapter but I can't find my notebook that had my notes in it... I believe the cleaning company took it when they cleaned out the house. Without it I'm a bit clueless sadly.

I'm determined to get the second story (A Couple Takes Two) in the Timeline series finished by the new year. Any writing I've been doing, other than drabbles, is on it. It is a Jacob/Seth & Edward/Jasper series but if you have time I'd love for you to read it. The first story was greatly unloved :(

Oh no! Well you have such a great and creative muse for writing. I am sure you will come up with something and it may even be better. I have not ready a GOOD jasper/Seth story in such a long time. As a matter of fact, there's not much out there in the twilight world. I was so looking forward to Seth/Jasper development in Intermediate Imprinting by Starry, but she just upped and stopped doing twilight out of the blue. I know she has her reasons, so I'm not mad, just disappointed. That series was so good and I looked forward to her new chapters every week.

A couple takes two? Hmm...and there's a first one? I have to look that up. Did you also post it on fanfiction.net too?

I know. I've been writing little snippets here and there as I think of them. This multi-chapter will pull a lot from drabbles I've already written but will expand on.

And I know, believe me I know. Starry and I are close friends, we met last year and hung out over the summer while I was in her state for vacation this year. I tried to talk her out of quitting many times, we still have ongoing Twilight RPs that I want to work on but she doesn't. It makes me really sad.

Mhm. The first one is "One is a Lonely Number". Two isn't posted yet, but hopefully it will be soon. It's part of a series I'm working on. Yeah, it was posted under the penname "avari-nights", which is Starry and I's co-author name.

I love the little snippets believe me and the drabbles are so much fun, but they're not as satisfying as a complete multi-chapter story. Just being honest. But I know you'll do it when you have time. I just hope its soon. You're just really good at what you do.

I'm glad you do. Well she's doing what's best for her right now and she needs the support. She does has her reasons and we can just hope she comes back one day and decides to finish the amazing series she started.

I can't find "One is a Lonely Number." Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Hmmm...I'll look again.

It will be done...eventually! I'm sorry I can't be more specific than that.

She does and that is all I can do until then. I told her what you said in your previous comment, she was really surprised. She assumed she hadn't made much of a name for herself in the fandom and I was like, "...wut?"
