LOUIS

The crying of Vivian woke me up again for the third time that night. 

"Don't worry about it baby, I got her," Harry kissed my forehead, slipping out of bed.

"Haz, it's okay, you've been doing it every night for the past few weeks."

"Baby, you need to rest. You've been carrying her in your stomach for nine months, the least I can do is take care of her now that she's out of your stomach."

I sighed, lying back down. "Thank you, I love you."

I crept softly into Vivian's room, careful not to startle her. "Hey pumpkin," I cooed, picking her up. "What's wrong?"

By this time, I was able to vaguely pick out what her cries meant, which made it easier for me to settle her down. 

"Are you hungry pumpkin?" I asked her quietly. "I think it's time to fee you, huh? We're going to let papa sleep and give you the bottle."

Her cries quieted down down as I gave her the bottle and eventually the only thing I could hear was her slurping down the bottle.

I smiled when she finished, kissing both her cheeks. "Good job, pumpkin."

I put the bottle in the sink and began washing it. I jolted in surprise when two arms wrapped around my waist.

"Lou, what are you doing up? It's 3 in the morning, go back to bed baby."

He sighed, resting his head on my shoulder. "I can't go to sleep when you're not there."

I chuckled turning around in his arms to kiss him softly. "You're cute. My little sunshine."

He pouted. "Oh give me a break. I'm big!"

I squeezed his hips making him jump. "Sure you are baby. I'm gonna finish washing this, can you put Vivian back in her crib?"

He nodded, kissing my cheek, before picking up Vivian slowly and walking towards her bedroom.

I watched him go fondly.

"But Ross was right! They were on a break!"

I rolled my eyes. "For a day! He literally waited one day before having sex with someone else! And besides, being on a break is different from them breaking up!"

"Whatever, I still think Rachel overreacted," Jared said standing up from the couch and stretching. His shirt rode up exposing his abs and I gulped, looking away. Slow. We were going slowly.

So far, holding hands was the only thing I was really comfortable doing. We hadn't even kissed yet. Jared understood though, he was very patient. I could tell that he wanted more, but he wasn't going to push me.

"Babe? Are you listening to me?"

I blinked. "Huh?"

He laughed. "I was asking if you wanted to meet my other friends. We're meeting at that club across the street."

"Oh, of course!" I stood up with him. "Can I bring some friends as well?"

He smiled. "Sure."
