“ she's so pretty ” crystal said looking at a sleeping Brielle.
“ I want to squish her,” Damon said making all weird hand gestures.
“ she so tiny ” Lexi smiled, gently covering her.
“ I want to hold her,” Andrew said looking at her with adoring eyes.
“ I never thought anything this tiny could be so angelic,” I said looking at her face, while she held my finger in her tiny little hand.
“ I want to play with her, let me wake her up,” Damon said excitedly moving his hand towards the cradle earning a smack on his hand from Lexi.
“ ouch that hurt,” he said rubbing his hand. While Lexi glared at him.
“ no one is supposed to wake her up,” Crystal said warningly looking at me, drew and Damon.
“ I will bury you alive if she wakes up,” Lexi said walking towards the kitchen.
“ fine,” I said blowing raspberries at her. I gently took away my finger from Brielle's hold praying she wouldn't wake up. She stirred, not waking up.
We headed to the kitchen, I held myself on the kitchen counter with damon and drew next to me, crystal and Lexi stood opposite to us leaning against the counter.
“ I want one ” Crystal said in a childish tone.
“ Really ?” Damon asked excitedly. Crystal's eyes widened in surprise looking at an oh-so-excited Damon. I did what I do best ignore them looking at drew and Lexi for a better view, but they were glancing at each other shyly. Everyone around me is gone mad I concluded. Jumping down to get me some ice cream.
I opened my fridge and turned to look at Damon who gasped “ what? ” I asked tilting my head in his direction.
“ it's like a mini ice cream parlor in there,” he said pointing at the refrigerator, his eyes wide and creepy.
“ oh that, Duncan does that so that I don't run out of ice cream and can eat whatever flavor I want whenever I want,” I said a smile playing on my lips thinking about teddy.
“ That's way too much ice cream,” Lexi said eyeing the fridge, I immediately shut the door shielding it with my body, so she wouldn't think of getting rid of them.
“ so baby sister, how's Mr. William? ” Andrew asked with an evil smirk. But I was happy the topic was diverted from my ice cream
“ last time I checked he was in love with you,” he said moving his dangling legs back and forth.
“ did you ask him if he's in love with you,” crystal asked holding my hands.
“what's to ask that man is whipped,” Lexi said setting her shirt, her eyes on me with a hint of smile.
“ and I think even she is ”
I coughed a couple of times not able to sink the words through. Where is Duncan when I need him?.
“ aren't you? ” she questioned. Folding her hands over her chest. Gosh anyone save me anyone I don't mind.
Everyone turned towards the baby looking at her as we heard her crying. We got so immersed in the conversation forgetting about Damon who took all the liberty to wake her up. All of us glared at him.
“ I uh just wanted to play,” he said dry chuckling. All of us walked towards Brielle who was crying so loud.
Crystal carried her trying to calm her “ please baby stop crying ” she begged swaying her left to right. But she cried louder pulling crystals' hair.
