Better Than Words (Book 2)

Chapter 2

"Hey darling," my mom said softly coming over to my bed side.

"What are you doing here?" I asked sitting up straight.

"I flew here to see you Emma," She said.

"Why? Wheres dad?"

"He's at home I snuck onto a plane to fly here," She replied.

Without knowing what else to say I got up and and walked over to the bathroom to give a little face wash and went over to pick up Brit.

"Mom, this is Brit," I introduced hand Brit to see her grandmother.

"Hi Brit!" My mom said in a happy, positive tone. A smile spread across mine and my mom's face.

An hour later Zayn and I was sitting on my bed talking to my mom one last time before she had to leave.

"It was great seeing you again mom," I said getting up to give her a hug.

"You too, I'll see you again," she replied returning another hug. "It was good meeting you Zayn, take good care of my daughter,"

"It was good meeting you to ma'am and no worries I will take great care of her." Zayn promised.

She nodded and headed out the door as we waved goodbye I wrapped my arms around Zayn's waist and looked up, "I love you Zayn,"

"I love you too hun," he said giving me a kiss.

The last few days at the hospital was a bit stressful with getting up really early in the morning but I'm getting used to it. Carly's visit with Zayn's siblings and parents were great, Carly is already loving her new sister so that's good to see!

We packed up to go back home and starting heading out the hospital doors with Brit's car seat in my hands when paparazzi popped out and started snapping pictures I covered my sweatshirt over Brit's car seat so she won't see so much a flashing and obviously let's some air going in and out.

Security helped us to our car and held the paparazzi back. I sat in the back with Brit while Zayn drove onto the road. "Well we'll be seeing a lot of them later, maybe not today but in our lives we will,"

"Yeah sadly we will, I will try my best to have them go away far from Brit and you," Zayn told me reaching in the back for my hand, I grabbed it and let go since he should use two hands on the steering wheel.

I stared at Brit admiring how great she is, to be honest she is like the best thing that ever happened to me, well...except for when I met Zayn. We pulled out of the driveway and I quietly got out and took out the car seat with Brit in it. The fresh smell of the house surrounded me as I entered in, I handed the seat to Zayn so he can carry her up into the living room.

"Hey Emma...I think we need the diaper bag," Zayn called from upstairs.

"Let me guess she went #2 by the sound of your voice?" I chuckled. Zayn was in the living room with Brit on the floor. "You wanna change her or do you?"

"Uh," He began. "I...will I guess,"

"Ok, let's see how long you can go without gagging!" I laughed heading him the bag.

And Zayn only lasted just about 2 seconds. He wiped her clean and was still gagging till he threw the diaper into the trash.

"How was that for ya?" I laughed.
"Disgusting," He gagged.

"Hey your a father of a newborn, you'll get used it, I'm already used to it since I changed Evan's diapers when he was a baby." I said.

He nodded and smiled and brought me into a tight hug. He released the hug when the door bell rang.

I went downstairs and opened the door. Zayn's parents came to return Carly, the minute Carly saw me she yelled, "Mommy!" And gave me a hug.

"Hi Sweetie!" I greeted bending down to give her a hug. "Wanna see your baby sister?" I asked.

"Yeah!" She cheered. I smiled and stood up and held my hand out and walked up the stairs.

Carly sat on the floor and Zayn put Brit into Carly's arms. I stayed behind Carly and put her arms where it probably should be. She smiled down at Brit and looked at her from head to toe.

"What do you think of her Carly?" Zayn asked bending down to her eye level.

"I like her," She responded with a smile.

"I think it's time for Brit's nap," I told Carly, watching Brit yawn was the cutest! Her little arms did a little stretch in front of her mouth.

I took her from Carly's arms and carried her over to her nursery room. I gently placed her into her white crib, grabbing to baby monitors I turned them on and set one on a small wooden table next to her crib and took the other with me.

"Ok, she's down for a nap," I told Zayn as I walked into the kitchen.
The usual day was just normal after Brit woke up we all went out to the beach and just watched Carly play. Brit was already asleep in her car seat that was next to me.

"I'll be right back babe," He kissed me and got up.

"Alright." I smiled.

Within ten minutes Zayn still hasn't returned. Where is he? All of the sudden music started playing and dancers came running out.

They gathered in a crowd began dancing, wow okay. Then they started coming towards me and suddenly the song playing clicked in my head....it's Marry You by Bruno Mars. It's happening oh my god!!! My face brightened up as a chair was brought out and a man took me to it and I sat down.

Towards the ending the dancers separated on two sides and one man stood at the end. Zayn. I slouched forward and buried my head in my hands and began to cry.

He made his way to me and held my hand in his, I lifted me head and wiped tears. The music drifted off and everyone looked.

"Emma Lauren Johnson, your an amazing yet gorgeous girl I ever known,You're a brave girl and who would stand up to anyone when someone can't stand up for themselves. I love that kind of girl. You gave me a beautiful daughter and then we adopted another beautiful daughter. Your the love of my life, my best friend and you also make my life complete and I want to spend the rest of my life with you," He bent down on one knee and took out a black box and opened it. revealing a gorgeous diamond ring.

"Will you marry me?" He asked.
