Little Donny tiredly trudged his way through the dark hallway of the mansion as the sounds of the tiny infant's cries became clearer and clearer. He eventually made it to the dimly lit nursery and switched on one of the lamps, which lit dimly through the pastel pink room. Donny sighed tiredly and made his way over towards Baby Leah's white crib. There she was, the tiny little princess whom the prince called his sister, all swaddled up in baby blankets and pillows, all within different shades of pastel pink. Donny then gently picked her up, shushing her soothingly as he adjusted the newborn into his arms. The little one continued fussing profusely in her brother's arms, as he checked to see if she needed a diaper change. She didn't seem to be in the need of one, which was a good thing, he wasn't really in the mood for it. "Hmm, maybe you're just hungry." Donny thought, as he then spots one of the empty unused baby bottles on one of the shelves. Baby Leah continued fussing as Donny cradles her soothingly in one arm, whilst preparing the bottle of formula with the other. Once the bottle was prepared, he then made his way over towards one of the rocking chairs, slowly sitting down in the process. As he gently rocks in the chair, Donny held the little bottle as Baby Leah started to drink. He chuckles a little as he gazes upon his sister with so much love in his eyes. "Don't you worry, Leah. I will do whatever it takes, just for you to have a better life than I ever did. Things will get better. I'll be here for you every step of the way and to always protect you. I promise. Bubba will make sure of it.." Donny whispers to her, as a few tears trickled down his face. 


Once Leah was done, Donny set the empty bottle down, he wiped his face with some nearby tissue. He then placed the little one onto his shoulder and patted her little back softly. Once he finishes burping the little one, Donny stood up slowly and walked back over towards the crib, and gently placed Baby Leah back into it. He then spotted a little music box on one of the other shelves and starts winding it up. He places it back onto the shelf and quietly hums along to the tune, as he felt her little hand wrap around his finger. Donny takes notice of this and smiles contentedly at the baby that laid before him. He caressed Leah's tiny hand softly as he sang to her lovingly. "You'll never know, dear. How much I love you. Please don't take, my sunshine away..." Once Leah was fast asleep, Donny allowed himself to relax as he then made his way back to his own room quietly. He allowed his body to slump against the mattress lazily. He felt tired sure, he didn't have the need to fall asleep. The prince just stared aimlessly at the dark ceiling of his huge blue bedroom. This was normal to him ever since Leah was born, so it was not much of a surprise for him. Not that he felt as sleep mattered to him anyway. Eventually, he did manage to get himself to fall asleep, only to then be kept awake by constant tossing and turning throughout the evening. Normally, he'd go to Donut's room and sleep on the couch or on the other side of the bed when the couch wasn't available. And Donut despised the fact of the prince sleeping on the floor since it was not the most comfortable thing to sleep on during the night. Tonight felt different however, Donny didn't feel the need, nor the longing to bother him. All wanted to do was stare out into space, letting the overwhelming, intrusive thoughts in his brain consume him before falling asleep again. And that's all he did that night.
