Not gonna lie Katie has helped me so much while settling into London. I started packing my clothes away into me and Katie's 'shared wardrobe', but we all know I'm going to steal her clothes. They just look so comfy!! Katie just told me to pack my clothes and all the other stuff of mine away while she and the others set up Cooper's room. I don't actually know where Cooper is, probably with Rafa and Kyra, his two favourite friends at the moment. Apart from Katie of course. And me? The only problem I have with them setting up his room is that Cooper likes stuff the way it is. He may love it, but he may hate it. That's what I'm scared about. I'm sure it'll be fine though. It always is.
"Hey love, come look at his room. I think we've done a grand job" Katie comes in and tells me. I hope it's good.
"Okay i'm coming, pick me up!" I say, lifting my hands up as she pulls me up. She really does treat me right. She opens the door and covers her veiny tanned hand over my eyes, and her other hand around my waist, guiding me towards the door.
"3,2,1...Open! she says quietly, trying to not let Cooper hear, as we don't want him to see. I love it. It's jungle themed, with a high bed with a slide coming off the bottom, stuffed jungle animals. I whipped out my phone and took a picture before I knew Cooper was going to wreck it in minutes. I have no clue how they built the bed so fast, although Katie was good at everything.I posted this photo on my Instagram story, showing off my new son's bedroom. It was lovely, Teyah told me she stuck vinyl on the wall and brung everything upstairs, and that Katie built the bed. The room was already painted green around the bottom of the wall, which was perfect.
We showed Cooper his room about an hour ago, he hasn't left it since. He's been all over the girls and making them play with him. Mostly, it's been Kyra. I've tried selling and donating stuff to charity that we don't need. Like a toaster, kettle and a blender, you know the basic necessities which all houses have. Katie let me change her desk into a vanity so I put up my Hollywood mirror and decorated around it. I put a few cute photos of Cooper and me on my nightstand as well. Everything was coming together now. It's perfect.
It's around 8:00pm now, Cooper was playing in his room still, alongside Rafa. I was downstairs with Katie, wrapped in her arms. Kyra went home
to her house as she lives with Alessia; who is currently poorly bless her. Teyah is in her room, or with Cooper, we'll never know.
"Can i ring my mum?" I asked Katie, i didn't want to just randomly ring her, because that would be awkward.
"Of course you can, you don't need to ask me" She said softly, putting her arm around my shoulder for comfort. I started ringing my mum, well actually facetime because I prefer that. After a couple seconds, she picks up. Me and her have a conversation and I let Katie say hi to her before I leave her be. I told mum about Cooper's new room and how we were quickly out of our old house; which is being put up on the marketplace this week sometime. After 20 minutes or so, I tell Katie that I'm going to go put Cooper to bed and head up to bed myself. She told me that she'll be around 10 minutes or so, just cleaning the kitchen up after dinner.Tomorrow was my first training session with the team, me and Jonas arranged that I was going to bring Cooper every Wednesday to training and then the rest of the day he is going to nursery. Personally, I thought that was a great idea as it let the girls see Cooper. Jonas told me that he had a surprise for Cooper tomorrow, so that'll keep him happy.
Cooper was easy to put to bed tonight, him and Rafa cuddled up onto his bed and I read him a story about a dinosaur. Normally we have a rotating book sequence, and I take him once a month to the charity shop to buy new ones. I think it's a marvellous idea. Once i'm finished brushing my teeth, I pull the bedding back and hop in, in my fresh silk pajamas which I recently got for Christmas from my mum. Not long after, Katie popped up and she just slept in her sports bra and shorts. How random, but at the end of the day, it is Katie McCabe. I turn to face her in bed and we just lay there for about 2 minutes or so, before she leans in to kiss me. Not going to lie I was hoping she would make the first move, as i'm terrible at flirting and all that kind of stuff. The kiss lasts for time as it gets passionate. She pulls away reaching for oxygen and lets me snuggle my head into her chest. Not long after, I fell asleep. Her bed is sooooo comfy!! Best night sleep in a long time.
