Summary: Sam Austen meets Aaron. He must look more like his father.
Spoilers: through Eggtown
Notes: for lost_in_108 prompt #60: thanks.
Sam bounces the baby on his lap, fingers running through wispy blond hair, and Kate smiles, tight and nervous. “He's beautiful, isn't he?”
He's always known her too well. Her father traces the little boy's features, his nose, his cheekbones, his forehead. Eyes averted. “He must look more like his father.” She thinks: he knows how this feels.
“Daddy, please.” She holds her breath, and Sam finally meets her gaze. She can see the decision cross his face.
“He's beautiful, Katie.”
She lets out the breath she'd held, relief and gratitude. “That's your grandpa, Aaron.”
Chubby fingers padding Sam's chin, the baby laughs, and the sound warms her.
