My Love Is Like a Star

Chapter 32

Demi POV

The next morning I wake up next to my husband. Hehe I can't believe I can call him that now. We leave for our honeymoon tomorrow and we still haven't told Aubree about her staying with my parents for a week. I slowly get out of bed and walk down the hall to check on our daughter. (Can't get over that one either.) I peak into her room. Her blonde wavy hair is covering her little face. I walk over to her and push her hair out of her face and give her a kiss on the cheek. She reaches up for me and I gently climb into bed with her and pull her on to my chest. She wiggles her little head into the side of my neck. I'm going to miss my little peanut so much. I kiss her head and hum her favorite song. Her breathing evens out which means she's fallen back asleep. I see the door crack open just a little.

"Hey." I whisper trying not to wake Bree. Nick walks in. "Goodmorning." He says walking into the room. "Want some breakfast?" He asked me as he entering the room. I nod my head. "But I wanna cuddle my baby first. I am going to miss her." I say looking up at him. "Babe its only for a week she'll be okay. " He says sitting next to me on the bed. "I know but I haven't been away from Aubree at all since I adopted her." I explain to him. He kisses the side of my head and then lays next to me. I smile big. "I love this Nick. I love all three of us on the bed together just cuddling." I say laying my head on his chest. "Me too baby. This is how I want to spend every morning sometimes." He says with a smile. I smile big and cuddle into him more.

We lay like this for a little while longer until Aubree starts to stir from her sleep. "Good morning baby girl." I whisper rubbing her back. Her little eyes flutter open and a smile appears on her face. "Morning mommy." She whispers as she nuzzles her face into my neck. I smile and Nick gets up. "I'm going to make breakfast." He says. "Chocolate pancakes daddy." Aubree tells him. He chuckles, "Okay princess I'll make chocolate chip pancakes for you." He tell her making his way out of the room.

I carefully get up with Aubree's little arms wrapped around my neck. I carry her into my room so I can change. I set her on my bed and look through my closet for something to wear. I change into a pair of jeans and a tshirt and pick my sleepy girl who is patiently waiting for me. After I pick her up I carry her down stairs. I set her on the couch in the living room and turn on Sofia the First for her. "What Sofia while mommy helps daddy with breakfast okay." I say kissing her head. She nods and puts her thumb in her mouth and lays back and watches the TV. I walk into the kitchen where I find a half naked Nick still in his pj bottoms. His bare back facing me. I walk up behind him and wrap my arms around his waist. I lean my chin on his shoulder and kiss his neck. He smiles and keeps his eyes on the pancakes that are in the pan. "I so can't wait for tomorrow." He says flipping a pancake. "Me either. We still have to tell Bree what's happening Nick." I say sadly. Don't get me wrong I am so excited for this honeymoon. I just don't want to leave my baby for a week. "I know maybe we can tell her later today." He suggests. I nod my head and let go of Nick and sit on the counter.

Nick finishes making our breakfast and I go grab Aubree off the couch. "Come on mommy's baby time for chocolate chip pancakes." I say walking into the living room. "Yay!" She shouts running to the kitchen table. I smile and follow her. After we finish eating, Nick and I decide that its time to tell Aubree about us going away for a week. "Baby girl?" I say looking at her while she plays with her doll house. "Yes mommy?" She say still playing. "Can you come sit with mommy please?" I say patting my legs. She drops her little dolls and runs over to me. I pick her up and set her on my lap. "Mommy has to tell you something." I say turning her to face me. She looks at me with her chocolate brown eyes. "Daddy and I are going on a trip tomorrow." I explain to her. "I go too?" She asks. "No you're going to stay with Grammy and Papa." I tell her. Her little lip begins to quiver. "No mommy!" She shouts. "Aubree Lynn. We don't shout at mommy." I say sternly. She starts to cry. "Baby we're not going to be gone that long." I tell her. "No!" She screams at the top of her lungs and gets down off me and runs up the stairs. My eyes widen when the door to her room slams shut.

"What just happened?" Nick asks. "I told her about us going on a trip and she freaked out." I say quietly. "Baby." He says sitting next to me on the couch. He starts to rub my back. "You should go talk to her." He says to me. I nod my head and walk up stairs to Aubree's room. I open the door to find my little girl hiding in her closet with her teddy sobbing. "Bree come here." I say quietly to her. She sniffles and crawls out of her closet to me. I pick her up and sit on the bed with her on my lap. "Why don't you want me and daddy to leave?" I ask her. "Y-you w-won't c-come b-back." She says through each cry. "Baby I promise daddy and I will be back right after our trip is over. We'll even bring you a present how's that?" I ask her. She nods her head and a pull her closer into me. I hope I'm making the right choice by going on this honeymoon.
