Baby Daisy was now a week old, and she had been behaving well more than ever. Zoey was taking time off school, which she obviously hated doing as she loved being in school and socialising with people, thankfully she was allowed to come into school with Daisy and she was able to see Noel for a few hours too.

Zoey sighed deeply as she walked into the school, her daughter in the pram as she stopped at the gates. Samia and Libby (who Zoey didn't have a clue existed) both walked over with a smile on their faces, looking down at Daisy.

"Aww, she's so cute!" Samia grins, looking down at the baby and then Zoey. "So you're allowed at school then?"

"Only for a bit, Miss Campbell wants to talk about how I'm gonna juggle this one and school" Zoey smiles, playing with Daisy with a small giggle.

"So Noel's the dad, huh?" Libby smirks, folding her arms. "He doesn't shut up about her, it's all he can talk about!"

"Oh yeah?" Zoey says with a small smile, proud that her boyfriend wasn't a dead-beat like her dad. "He was so excited to be a dad to her..."

"Is that my daughter?!" Noel suddenly shouts out from behind, running over to the baby in the pram. "Hello!" he says in a baby voice, stroking Daisy's head before taking her out the beige pram.

"told you" Zoey giggled as she took Daisy's dummy out of the bag. "Here y'are" she says as she places it in her mouth. "He did want a boy but suppose i got lucky" she smirks.

"I wouldn't change it for the world, would I?" Noel says in that same babyish voice, placing her back into the pram.

"she's a spit of you" Dean adds on as he walks over to the two, Samia and Libby walking away. "Got your nose" Dean smirks as Noel places her back in the pram. "Daisy, eh?"

"Yes, Daisy" Noel nods, pushing the pram as Zoey walked next to them. "Daisy Danielle McManus" Noel says proudly, dangling a toy in-front of her. "proper little daddy's girl ain't ya?" Noel smirked.

"Nah, she's an Uncle Dean's girl!" Dean joked, folding his arms as Zoey looked at the two in utter confusion. "Uncle Dean, innit? Cos I'm Noel's best mate?"

"Right" Zoey rolls her eyes as they walk into the school, Kim looking at Zoey with a big smile plastered on her face. "Alright, Miss?"

"Is this Daisy, then?" Kim says softly as she walks over to the baby in the pram, her sea green eyes glistening up at Kim. "She's gorgeous... looks a bit like you Noel" Kim joked, causing Zoey to stare at her blankly. "Right, you ready for this meeting then?"

"Yep" Zoey nods, taking the pram away and walking off with Kim.

Zoey had decided to keep Daisy with Dean for a bit while her and Noel talked to each other about how they were gonna look after her. Once the two of them had finished they walked back into the canteen and noticed that Dean was sat there singing a lullaby to her who was looking up at him blankly.

"What are you doing?" Noel laughed as him and Zoey stood there awkwardly, Zoey having her arms folded.

"Hey, don't come up on us like that" Dean sighed deeply as he held her in his arms. Zoey took Daisy off him and giggled. "I make a decent uncle innit?"

"Do you really?" Zoey says sarcastically as she places her back into the pram. "Looks like someone needs his nappy changing!" Zoey adds on in a baby voice, strolling away towards the bathroom.

"God, you really want her to grow up and call you uncle" Noel scoffs, placing a hand on his head and laughing slightly. "I'm gonna make sure she calls you something else"
