I mean, the magazines always speculate doesn’t mean its true. However, you are right, there are seeds being planted that she might not make it. I am still convinced that either way, after all, is said and done, the Whites will be off the show for good. They served their purpose once Lachlan is taken down.
The ‘Feed in the Sand’ theory does seem to be coming true. I agree. There is no set of feet that aren’t accounted for. I guessed Ross or Belle which before in 2017 it didn’t fit but now…hmmmm…yes…Ross isn’t going to be with us for much longer. So, we shall see!
a soft touch, g, 2.8k, warnings: none. a short fic tracing Aaron’s feelings about Seb.
Aaron always loved kids for a whole host of reasons. There’s the obvious, they have little to no malice in them, except Leo after he builds a Lego tower and crushes it like he’s Godzilla. They simply exist in the world hopefully ignorant of the trials and hardship that go on around them and it makes them brilliant. What would you do if you suddenly became a flying ant for the day? Noah asked him once while they were eating cereal before Noah had to go to school. And even if they do know hardship, they rise above. Just watching Debbie’s Sarah is proof of that.
So, Aaron comes to Seb with eyes wide open. Does he entirely forget the circumstances of him the first time he holds him? No, but his wailing cries stop and he smiles with his scrunched-up baby face, and Aaron loves kids. They sit, and they cuddle, and Robert gets his work done, blonde hair a little less mad and not being pulled out between the baby changing table and printed out spreadsheets. When Seb stops and starts crying as Aaron tries to hand him back, Aaron almost loses it. This tiny mischief maker is having him on. Plain and simple. He isn’t unhappy about it, he’s genuinely amused by this small terror. ADaddy’s boy, huh?
