"Dada!"
"YES! I WIN!"
Adeline sat, clapping her hands as she giggled.
"I told you Eve! I told you!"James sang, picking up Adeline and spinning her around. "Oh I'm so proud, sweetie."
"Dada?"Adeline babbled. "Dada!"
"Yes, I am dada!"James beamed. "Look, this is your mama. Are you going to say mama?"
Adeline blinked at Eve, trying to work something else as she stared at her mother. Eve kissed her head. And as Eve stepped back, Adeline muttered.
"Ma?"
"Close enough," James said cheerily. "Can you say, Harry?"
Adeline just shook her head, battering her pretty eyelashes at her dad. James smiled at her anyway.
"When you meet Harry, you're going to look out for him because that's what older sisters do. And tell him when he's doing something stupid like your mother does with me."
Eve rolled her eyes at James even though she was watching the two of them with a sweet feeling filling her. It was still strange to know she was married, had a daughter and was about to have a son.
"It's time for your nap," said Eve softly. "Who do you want to put you in bed, Adeline?"
"Mama!"Adeline extended her arms towards her mother.
"Traitor," James whispered. "Dada is your favourite, my sweet daughter, you remember that."
Eve glared lightly at James, taking Adeline carefully. James didn't know how she managed to look after Adeline while being pregnant but the woman did a damn good job at it whenever he wasn't there. Their daughter was well cared for, anyone could see that.
There was a soft knock at the door that James knew was Amanda but he made sure before opening the door. Amanda and Micheal both greeted James before he let them inside.
"Eve's just gone to put Addy down for her nap," said James. "She'll be back in a moment."
"How are you all?" Amanda asked. "I know it's hard for you to stop being so involved with the Order."
