Adopted by Luke Hemmings

62

When I woke up I rolled over and grabbed my phone, checking the phone. My eyes widened and I shot up from the bed, rushing to take a shower.

I was supposed to meet the guys and girl for breakfast in half an hour. I got out and got dressed and ran to Emma's room, getting her up and dressed in like five minutes.

I got her to the car and I sped all the way to the cafe we were eating at.

"Daddy, where are we going?" She asked.

"We are going to eat princess, you hungry?" I asked as she nodded slowly.

"Are you okay baby?" I asked as I reached my hand back to her.

She grabbed it and gave me a light squeeze as I pulled into the parking lot. I got her out of the car and she cuddled her head into my neck. Her legs wrapped around my waist and her arms went around my neck.

Once I got her inside, I took a good look at her. She looked like she hadn't slept in weeks.

"Emma, are you alright my love?" Laura asked as she walked in behind us.

"No mommy," she whispered as she moved from my arms to hers.

Both mine and Laura's eyes went wide. She called her mommy.

"If you don't want that it's fine," I whispered as she shook her head.

"It's fine Luke. We've been dating for six months, it's normal for this to happen," she whispered back as she kissed my cheek.

We went to the table where everyone was at and Emma slept in Laura's lap.

"Is she alright?" Calum asked looking over at her.

"I don't know. She looks like she hadn't slept in weeks," i sighed.

"Do you think it's the nightmares again?" Ashton asked.

"Lord I hope not," i spoke.

"How bad were they?" Laura asked next to me.

"To the point she was throwing up in her sleep and wouldn't remember it the next morning," Michael spoke.

"Music usually helps. Ws'll try it when we get home," I spoke as I rubbed Emma's back, her not budging one bit.

"Daddy," Emma whimpered in her sleep as I was folding some laundry.

"Daddy!"

I threw the shirt down and rushed upstairs, opening her door and seeing her sit up with scared eyes.

"You're okay, shh my darling," I spoke quietly as I picked her up.

"Where's mommy?" She asked as she climbed onto my shirt.

"She's not here sweetheart," I spoke as I kissed her head.

"Daddy, when will you marry mommy?" She asked me as she calmed down a bit.

"I'm not sure sweets. Hopefully after you turn five she'll want to marry me," i spoke.

"Do you love her?"

"I do baby girl, I do. But you know what?"

"What?"

"I love you very much too," I spoke as I attacked her with kisses.

"Ooh, am i interrupting something?" Laura spoke from the door way.

"Mommy!" Emma exclaimed as she jumped from my lap and ran to hug her.

"Hi beautiful! Did you sleep-" she started as she looked up and saw me shaking my head with wide eyes.

"What mommy?" Emma asked with big eyes.

"Did you sleep with daddy?" Laura asked changing the question she was going to ask.

"No, he was busy. But he told me he loves me and you," she told her as I blushed.

"Oh really? What else did daddy say?" Lairs asked as she smirked at me.

"He said that he hopes you'll-"

"Okay, how about ice cream?" I spoke as my whole face went red.

"Yeah!" Emma spoke as she ran downstairs.

"You hope I what?" Laura asked as she walked to me and wrapped her arms around my neck, my hands going to her waist.

"I hope that you'll say yes when I ask you to move in with me," i spoke. The marriage thing will be later.

"Is that a question I hear Hemmings?" She spoke with a smile.

"Maybe," I spoke.

"Yes, I'll move in with you," she whispered as I smiled and leaned in to kiss her.

"Emma, mommy is moving in!" I called as I stared into Laura's eyes.

I heard Emma cheering and I imagine her doing some idiotic dance moves Michael taught her.

"I love you sweet boy," she whispered.

"I love you more baby," I whispered back.
