Addy had been staying with the Cambridges for about a week now, and she had loved every minute of it.

So far they had played football(soccer), she had given William her painting which had made him cry, she has spent time with each of the kids individually and as a group, and now they were having a girls day.

Addy, Charlotte and Kate were all gathered in Kate's makeup room, doing each other's hair and makeup.

"So Kate, do you and Arty have any plans to have another baby?" Addy asked with a smirk as she continued to apply eyeshadow to Charlotte's eyelid, causing the little girl to giggle.

"No plans, but I definitely wouldn't be opposed to it." Kate said with a grin.

"I think you should have another girl." Charlotte said with a giggle.

Kate raised an eyebrow at her daughter before shaking her head with a laugh, "We'll see."

Charlotte just smiled and sat still as Addy started to apply blush to her cheeks.

"What about you? Any plans for kids?" Kate asked softly, knowing that it was a sensitive topic.

"I love kids, and I've always wanted kids of my own but life had other plans. I have thought about adopting a few times, but I struggle with the idea of bringing a child into the tornado that is my life these days."

"I think you should. Adopt, I mean." Kate squeezed Addy's shoulder reassuringly, "My kids love you, Genie and Zara's kids loves. You'd make a great mother Rose. As for the drama and the press, it's always going to be there, you just have to make sure that it doesn't get to you."

"Mummy is right Aunt Addy, you would be a great mum and the press isn't really that bad."
Charlotte told her with a smile.

"Thank you Lottie." Addy smiled, " I'll think about it."

"Why don't we go show your Papa, your makeup?" Kate suggested to Charlotte as she finished curling the young girls hair.

"I bet he's going to cry again." Addy said with a smirk, "Oh you look so much like your mum! My little girl is all grown up! No dating until you're thirty!" She said in a deep voice, imitating William, cause Kate and Charlotte to laughs.

"You're probably right." Charlotte giggled, "Let's go!" She ran off in search of her father with her mother and aunt following close behind.

"Charlotte wait I have an idea!" Addy said with a smirk. "Katie why don't you go get your husband and we'll set this up."

A few moments later, Kate entered the room with William only to find Charlotte sitting with her back to them and Addy holding two pictures of Charlotte making silly faces.

"Today, Katie and I took this and this and now we give you, a princess!" Addy pulled the pictures away and spun Charlotte, who was now wearing small tiara that Addy had gifted her for her birthday, to face her parents.

"Oh, Lottie, look at you!" William said as tears came to his eyes, "You look so grown up."

"I told you." Addy whispered in Charlotte's ear, causing the young girl to giggle.

"How do I look Papa?"

"You look beautiful darling." William said kneeling down in front of his daughter "You look so much like your mother."
