The girl who fell

Chapter twenty-nine

Jade

When Y/n runs off to go buy baby stuff, i sit down on my bed and the baby looks at me.

"Hello... I'm Jade. You dont have a name yet but Y/n, my girlfriend, is gunna decide that for you." I say.

He giggles.

"You really are a cute little baby aren't you?"

He reaches his arms out to me. I lift him and he puts his hands on my face. I smile.

"I have a feeling me and you are gunna get along very well." I say.

He smiles.

"So, while we wait for Y/n, why dont we watch a movie? But first, i think I'm gunna have to put a trash bag around you cos, right now, we dont have any diapers."

I go downstairs and grab a trash bag. I take it upstairs and put the baby in the trash bag.

I grab the remote and put Netflix on. I eventually find Minions. If this baby is anything like me, he'll love it too.

"This, is one of my favourite cartoons. If you're anything like me, it's gunna be one of your favourites too. Well, if you're anything like me, you're favourite movie in general will be a horror movie called The Scissoring. But that's for when you're older." I say.

I put the movie on and he sits next to me, propped up against a pillow. The movie starts and, when he sees a minion, he giggles and points at the tv.

He makes a bunch of noises and looks at me.

"Minion."

He tries to repeat that. It sounds more like he's speaking Chinese to be completely honest. I smile.

"Yeah that's it. Minion. You got it." I say.

You

"And the total is $250."

I pay for it and go to my car. I put the bags in the front seat. When i get to Jade's house, i grab the bags, lock the car and go inside. I go up to her bedroom. She's fast asleep with the baby next to her.

"She really fell asleep watching minions?"

The baby looks at me and then giggles. He stands up and tries to walk to me. I drop the bags and catch him. He literally fell off the bed.

"Dont do that again monkey." I say.

He giggles. I grab a diaper and go into the bathroom. I put the diaper on him and then make some baby milk for him. While i do that, i put that little monkey on Jade's bed. When the milk's done, i go upstairs and sit with him on my lap.

I put the milk bottle in his mouth and he starts to drink it.

"Good boy." I whisper.

Jade rolls over and lays facing me and this little monkey. I have absolutely no idea what to call him. I feel like he'd suit a Jacob. Or maybe Max.

I dunno. He finishes the milk and i put the bottle on the bedside unit next to Jade's bed.

"Now what are we gunna do? Hm? Should i tell you a story to help you get to sleep? Or maybe we could keep watching movies. Option number two seems fun." I say.

I lay down and position him so he can see the tv. Every now and then, he'll giggle at a minion. I swear, babies and minions have the same language.

I end up falling asleep.

I have no idea what time, but he starts to cry. Which jolts me awake.

I check the clock. 2am. I yawn and sit up.

"Hey. What's wrong monkey?" I ask.

He keeps crying. I grab the bottle and lift him up. I carry him downstairs.

"You hungry? You want some milk? You need a diaper change?"

He nods. Meaning all of them. I let out a sigh and nod. I change his diaper and then stop. Can he have both? Is that allowed? Is there a rule book?

This is stressful. Fucks sake. I grab my pear phone and look it up. Says he's too young for baby food. That's annoying. At least i didn't buy any baby food. All i got was diapers, pacifiers and baby formula.

I make him the milk. I put him in my arms and feed him the milk. I yawn.

"That milk nice?" I ask.

He keeps drinking. I smile a little. When he finishes the milk, i burp him and go back upstairs.

I lay him down on the bed next to Jade and go to my car. I grab my bag, which has my computer, and i go into Jade's room.

I knew i saved all my money for a reason. I go onto Amazon and start looking for baby stuff. While i look for baby stuff, the little monkey moves himself next to me. He pokes my arm.

I smile and look at him. I tilt my head.

"What do ya want?"

He tries to move my arm. I move my arm and he crawls onto my chest. He lays there. I reach for the pacifier on the bedside unit and put it in his mouth. He ends up falling asleep.

I let out a content sigh and keep looking for baby stuff. If we gunna have a baby, then the baby gunna need a crib. A night light. Good thing we have a spare room in my house. I mean i normally write songs in there but i can put this little monkey there.

He's literally such a cute little boy. I end up falling asleep.
