Rating: PG - 13
Summary: Jared comes home after a long day on set.
Disclaimer: The Boys totally belong to themselves. I’m not making any money off of this and it’s definitely not intended to infringe on anyone’s rights.
A/N: This was originally written for a different pairing, but part way through I realized that it would absolutely work for Jensen/Jared. I totally get that Jensen probably wouldn't ever sing either of the songs mentioned in this story (the title song is by John Tesh for God's sake); but there is a reason it's called Fan FICTION!!

Jared closes the front door quietly behind himself knowing Jensen is probably in the nursery trying to get Merrin to sleep. They have a busy day planned for tomorrow a houseful plus some coming over to help them celebrate Mer’s first Christmas. Jared realizes it’s probably a little on the ridiculous side going all out for an eight month old who won’t even remember it. But they’ll do it anyway; they promised each other, when they signed the papers bringing Merrin into their family, that she wouldn’t ever lack for anything. As Jared walks through the house he hears the dogs quietly snuffling in the spare room in their doggie beds; and it’s only as he gets to the doorway for the nursery that he hears Jensen singing barely audibly. Jared knows how relaxing feeling the words rumble through Jensen’s chest can be. He’s fallen asleep to it many times so he’s not really surprised when Jensen turns slowly and he sees that Merrin is out cold. Jensen finishes the song he was singing a little louder so that Jared can hear the words as well.
“Baby it wouldn’t be Christmas without you. Look at that Merrin, Daddy made it home in time to kiss you goodnight.” Jensen says deftly handing the baby off. It catches him off guard every time they do this, just how easily Jared went from hyper and extremely over-exuberant to competent and caring when they brought Merrin home. Not that Jensen expected anything less; he knew Jared would make a great dad. “You’re home later then I expected, everything go ok at the studio?” Jensen asks as Jared sits in the padded rocker in the corner subconsciously rocking the chair in what has become the ‘Merrin sleeping rhythm’. Jensen knows Jared loves this little ritual and he’s tempted to leave the room and let Jared have his quiet time with the baby. As he turns for the door Jared’s subdued voice stops him.
“Don’t go. Sing us another song, please?” And Jensen knows Jared’s got the ‘puppy eyes out in full force without even having to look. Jensen is tempted to break out into ‘House on Christmas Street’ but he knows that’s not what this moment calls for. So he picks the melody of the song he was singing before Jared came in back up and sings through the last verse again.
“As our little one’s waiting for Rudolph, she falls asleep in my arms. I quietly pray, ‘thank God for these days; our family and friends near and far’. And I dream that every December you’ll say that you love me too. ‘Cause baby it wouldn’t be Christmas without you. No baby it wouldn’t be Christmas with out you.” Jensen leans in and presses a gentle kiss to Merrin’s forehead then presses a slightly harder kiss to Jared’s lips. “Hopefully she’ll sleep through the night. Crib her anytime you’re ready then come to bed.” He says once again heading for the door to do one last check of the house before crashing. It’s almost 20 minutes before Jared puts Merrin in her crib with one last kiss to her forehead and tiny hands; he just can’t bear to let her go after he’s had a long (exhausting) day on set. With a final glance back into the room Jared leaves the door cracked open (yeah they have a monitor but those things can be finicky) and heads to bed. When he gets there Jensen is already snuggled under the covers, and even though his eyes are open Jared can tell he’s mostly asleep. And that’s fine with him, tonight is so totally made for cuddling anyway.
