A random act of kindness [George Russel]

Chapter 17

ROSIE POV: ± 37 weeks pregnant

Rosie lets out a huff of air when she finally sits on the side of the bed, looking at her reflection in the mirror with a sigh and a smile. She caresses her bump, humming when the baby kicks against her hand. "Good morning my little guy, how are we feeling today?" she whispers, chuckling when she feels him move. "I can't wait until I can hold you, but for now I can't wait to have breakfast" she mumbles, standing up and walking towards the bathroom slowly to get ready for the day before walking downstairs. George went out with Luna today after Rosie had a bit of a meltdown yesterday, telling her to take it easy today. She smiles when she sees that he prepared breakfast for her, chuckling when a drawing with a handwritten note is next to it.

Enjoy your breakfast and you-day babe. We'll pick you up at 6PM for dinner. X George & Lunes

Rosie's smile widens when she sees that Luna tried to write 'mommy under it. It was a bit of a wobbly line, but George had put *mommy under it for Rosie to understand. She puts the kettle on, putting her breakfast and book next to her reading chair before opening the windows so the slight breeze can reach her when she'll be sitting in her chair. The summer has been good to her, it was warm but not humid, which made it a little easier to carry the extra weight while making sure Luna wasn't running too far away from her when they went out. The last few months had been a dream for Rosie, their families and friends helped her out whenever George was abroad, and the moment he was home he tried to take everything out of her hands so she could relax a little.

Third trimester had been hard on her body, she had a lot of back and pelvic pain, which made it uncomfortable to run after Luna whenever she was out with her. Yesterday was a particularly bad day, which resulted in her meltdown. George was on summer break now, so he decided to bring Luna with him to the event he was invited to today. Rosie waddles back to the kitchen when she hears the water boiling, making herself a pot of tea before putting it all down next to her chair. She settles down against the pillows, sighing out in relief when she feels her body relax. "Oi, why are you kicking your mom the moment she finally sits down?" she groans, caressing her belly before putting her plate on top of it. "Please don't make the plate loose it's balance like yesterday" she mumbles, eating her breakfast slowly while the sunlight streams into the living room, warming up her face.

Rosie enjoyed being home alone, she had been relaxing and reading the whole day, but it felt like it took years for the clock to reach 6PM. She made her way upstairs at 5, freshening up before taking one of her new summer dresses out to wear for dinner. She bought it a few months ago on a shopping trip with George's mom and Luna. It was a white stretchy material with red hearts covering the fabric, and Luna had been so excited when she saw Rosie try it on that she had to get it. She managed to find a similar fabric at the market with Tayla, so she had asked her mom to make Luna a similar dress. They were coming to the UK next week, meaning that Rosie could hopefully give Luna the dress then. She slips into a pair of slippers George got her, not in the mood for leaning down to put proper shoes on.

"Goonight mommy and baby" Luna whispers, kissing Rosie's belly for the fiftieth time before wrapping her small arms around it and laying her head against the bump. She was tired after the eventful day and dinner. Rosie hums, stroking the little girls hair while George smiles down at them. "Shall daddy put you to bed angel?" he asks, chuckling when Luna shakes her head. "Wanna sleep with mommy and baby" she mumbles, closing her eyes already while Rosie moves her hand over her back. "Come sit with us babe" she says to George softly, sighing contently when he sits down next to her and wraps his arm around her shoulder, pulling her against his chest. Luna's lashes flutter close after a few more minutes while she cuddles Rosie's bump, soft sighs leaving her lips while her dreams take over. "I'll carry her to bed" George whispers, kissing Rosie on her hair. "Do you want to watch a movie afterwards or go to bed?" he asks, stroking her cheeks. "Let's watch a movie while cuddling" she mumbles, smiling when he kisses her lips softly. "Be right back gorgeous."
