~5 MONTHS LATER~

AUDREY’S POV

“I’m home,” I called to Harry as I walked in the house from my daily morning run. Yeah, you heard right. I started working out. I lost all of my baby fat and am in great shape. Harry says it helps in bed, too, but what does he know?

I stepped into the kitchen and smiled when I saw him on his knees in front of Darcy, who was in her high chair, making funny faces. She cried when she saw me, something she usually does, so I walked towards her and lifted her up. “Good morning, babe,” Harry said after I got Darcy situated on my hip. I smiled and leaned in to kiss him. “How was your run?”

I shrugged, bouncing the smiling baby in my arms. “Same as it is every day, tiring,” I said. I looked at Darcy and smiled. Her hair was Harry’s shade of brown, just ruffled on her head. Her eyes shined like her fathers, the emerald green everyone envied. She was big for five months, but she was twelve pounds when she was born. She’s about sixteen now, which I guess is healthy but it seems like a lot. She looked at me and smiled, her hands bouncing and patting my back. I smiled back and kissed her cheek and she laid her head on my chest.

“She’s so big,” Harry sighed, and I turned her face towards him so he could make fun faces. I heard her giggle a bit and I smiled.

“What time did she wake up?” I asked. “She’s probably thirsty.”

“She gets to suck on your boob, not fair,” Harry said, causing me to glare at him.

“You have your time for that, Harold,” I snapped, jokingly. I lifted Darcy up under her shoulders and held her in the air facing me. “Is you hungeey?” I asked, bringing her in slowly to kiss her nose. She smiled and laughed and I knew it was time to feed her. “Come here, baby,” I said in my baby voice. I went into the living room and got everything ready and got into position and fed her.

“By the way,” Harry called from the kitchen. “She woke up at nine.”

I smiled and as she was drinking I flipped my wrist and smiled at my tattoo, one of many Christmas and birthday presents from Harry. I got the let it be one with the birds and the stay shining, and I also got an H on my ankle and Harry got an A on his.

We got a cat, too. She was just a kitten when we got her, about 8 weeks but now she’s gotten bigger. Harry knew I would want a cute one, so he got one from the shelter that’s blind in one eye, has extra toes, and she is actually mentally retarded, and not to mention black and white and completely loveable. I named her Lucky. Darcy and Lucky cuddle together all the time and it makes a lot of tweet worth pictures.

After Darcy ate and we played for a little while I put her down for a nap. I went into our bedroom and put on Harry’s favorite dress, a white swoopneck that cinched at the waist with a black belt and a pink bottom that hugged my lower regions. I tied my hair up in a preppy girl pony tail and put it in a headband. When I knew I looked perfect, I walked downstairs.

“Hey did you see the – oh,” Harry said when he saw me, his eyes flickering down my body. I walked closer to him and he put his hands on my waist. Our faces were centimeters and his eyes kept flashing to my lips and back to my eyes. “I love you,” He whispered, his voice giving out. His leg wrapped around mine and I felt him hardening and I smiled.

“You’re allowed to kiss me, you know,” I said. He brushed his nose against mine lightly like he was about to kiss me but instead he just spread his lips into a big smile. I looked at him and swallowed, really hard. My heart was pounding and I was sure he could hear it. Finally, he left a small peck on my lips.

“What’s this about?” He asked, quickly changing the subject. I could tell he was just trying to make me wait now, and I honestly don’t know how he does that. I tried to say something, anything, but I couldn’t get any words out. I am still wonderstruck by Harry and it’s been a year and two months.
