ALEXANDRA

"Good morning sunshine! How's Mummy's girl this fine morning!" I crooned as I took Scarlett out from her portable crib.

As she began to coo animatedly, I looked at her in plain amusement. "I know right?" I played along, Scarlett clapped her chubby hands together happily, causing me to chuckle and kiss the tip of her button nose repeatedly.

"You're happy today, aren't you, my love?" I cooed , delivering yet another series of kisses to her little forehead.

"Why don't we go wake up uncle Ni and uncle Zee? I bet they'll like that." I giggled mischievously, adjusting Scarlett in my arms as I tip toed out of my room with Scarlett and into the living room where both lads were passed out on the blow up mattress.

I placed Scarlett between them, making sure she wouldn't fall over, then stepped back, smirking widely.

"Go on baby girl. Wake up your uncles." I murmured cheekily, causing Scarlett to shriek excitedly.

Bingo.

"What happened!?" Niall gasped, sitting up straight on the mattress. He looked around the room, as if trying to see where the damage was, but (obviously) found nothing.

"What's going on?" Zayn yawned sitting up as well, not seeming to notice Scarlett sitting next to him, chewing on what I'm guessing was one of their phones.

"Oh nothing. Just little Scarlett almost gave uncle Niall a heart attack. But other than that, everything's good." I assured, laughing loudly at both of their facial expressions.

"Oh so it was you all along, eh?" Niall smirked down at Scarlett. She gave him a toothless grin as she continued to gum over the mobile phone she had in her possession.

"Good job boo!" Zayn praised, scooping Scarlett up in his arms and hugging her to his chest gently. Scarlett whined, when she noticed where she was.

"Oh oh..." I giggled into the sleeve of my sweatshirt.

Scarlett had managed to turn her body so she could rut her mouth against Zayn's neck. As Zayn's eyes widened, Niall began to laugh hysterically, I wasn't far behind with my own laughter.

"Sorry about that, Zaynie. I'll take her now to feed her." I cackled, standing up to go and get my now whining girl.

"We'll be back. I'm just going to feed her." I said, before disappearing into my room so I could feed my baby. Scarlett soon went from whining to crying in a matter of seconds.

"Oh lovely, shh. Don't cry my love, Mummy's going to feed you now angel. Shh." I soothed delicately.

I lifted up my sweatshirt and positioned Scarlett in a laying position in my arms so she could nurse comfortably. As soon as her tiny mouth was close to my breast, she latched onto my sore nipples and began to guzzle down her meal.

She made little suckling noises every once in a while, whilst she ate. I looked down at her, observing her now droopy eyes fondly.

"You're so gorgeous monkey. Mummy loves you so much." I cooed, kissing her little forehead. Scarlett continued to eat, staring up at me with sleepy eyes the whole time.

I must've been sitting on the bed with Scarlett for quite some time, because next thing I know, Harry is appearing by the archway of the door, an ambivalent look to his face.

"Um, Zayn told me to come check if you needed anything..." Harry mumbled awkwardly, his hands fidgeting against his pockets.

I stared at him, not knowing what to say because I wasn't really expecting him of all people to come check on me and my daughter.
