Monster's Daughter (Legacies Fanfic)

Daughter

"It's okay if you're nervous" I watch her pick at the skin around her nails

She grabs my hand and turns the door knob and slowly push open the door

"We're here" I shout cheerfully

"LIZZIE, KOL NO" Rebekah yells chasing after them 

"Hope, Josie its nice to see you too" Freya smiles and nik excitedly jumps off of her lap to chase after the others.

"Its nice to see you too" I grin.

Hope nods and stands slightly behind me still holding onto my hand.

"Hayley's in your old room" She looks at hope then me.

She nods and freya gets up from her chair "Would you like a cup of tea" 

"Yes" I smile taking a seat at the table and so does hope.

"Hope do you want a cup" Freya asks looking at her with concern.

"yeah" She mumbles still holding my hand under the table.

"Hello Hope" Rebekah says out of breath.

"Hello" Hopes turns around slowly to look at Rebekah

"I'll get Hayley" Rebekah Smiles and runs to get her.

I feel hopes hand tighten under the table. 

I pull out my phone and text "are you okay? I can make up a diversion if you can't be here"

She pulls out hers and sends "I'm fine"

I look at her skeptically  and type"Ok" not wanting to start a fight when she's clearly already in a fragile state.

"Here she is" Rebekah smiles bouncing baby hayley in her arms while she smiles and eats her hand.

"She is so cute" I smile and reach for her tiny hands. 

Rebekah looks down at hope with concern and so do I, she has her head down and is fidgeting with her jeans.

I look back up at Rebekah then I sit back down next to hope and I ask "Can I hold her?"

"Yeah,sure" she looks up sweeping the hair out of her face.

Rebekah places Hayley in my arms "Hello there" I smile talking in a softer tone.

She coo's and grabs my chin I smile and she runs her small fingers along my face. I flutter my eyelashes and scrunch my face and Hayley giggles and runs her fingers over the creases in my face.

"Do you want to hold her" I look over at her

"No" She drinks her cup of tea

"Ok"I respond trying not to push her.

"Hope why don't you hold baby hayley" Rebekah tease

"I SAID I DON'T WANT TO" She yells shattering her coffee cup 

Silence fills the kitchen until Hayley started wailing

"Hey baby shhh shhh" I rock her back and forth and she calms down.

Freya and Rebekah look at hope with worry

"I'M GOING FOR A WALK" She slams her chair into the wall.
