Karlie's P.O.V

I had just gotten off the plane in Paris when Zoe told me to call Taylor as soon as possible. I thought it was strange that Taylor text Zoe but I understood considering I sometimes forgot to turn my phone back on. I called her and hung up in ten minutes with a huge smile on my face. "What's up Karlie? Everything okay?" I smiled and nodded and explained what just happened. Zoe started jumping around as it set in that I was going to be a mom. Ten minutes later the phone rang again, 'Taylor' picking it up I cut her short because I was boarding another plane to New York. I swear I could feel her smile from New York as Zoe cancelled everything for a family emergency. Everyone understood when she explained and soon enough we were back on the plane. I tried to sleep but was too excited, I couldn't breathe at one point. Zoe placed her hand on my arm. "Calm down Karlie, otherwise you'll pass out before becoming a mom." I just smiled and said. "I'm going to be a mom Zoe." She grinned and I spent the rest of the flight thinking of names, toys and those cutie pies waiting in New York.

As soon as the plane landed I was off and towards the baggage claim before looking for a taxi, Zoe eventually caught up and said she would take my stuff to our apartment and meet me later at the hospital. I just smiled and said that it sounded great and just before the taxi stopped she hugged me. "What's this for?" She just shrugged and I kind of decided for myself that it was for being me. I hurried into the hospital and stopped at reception. "Hello, how may I help you?" I smiled.
"My name is Karlie Kloss, and my fiancé Taylor Swift brought in a baby nearly twelve hours ago I was just wondering where I find Taylor?" She smiled and looked at the monitor before turning to me.
"Okay Karlie, so Taylor is down in the nursery with the baby so if you follow Karen here she will show you." I smiled at the receptionist then Karen,
"Okay thank-you so much." Karen gestured for me to follow her and I did, walking beside her she said, "So you really are engaged to Taylor then?" I smiled and nodded. "That's awesome. I met Taylor when she brought the baby in." I was about to talk back when we stopped in front of a room decorated with teddy bear wallpaper. "This is it," she smiled before walking back to reception. I sighed deeply knowing that this was it.

Turning the doorknob silently I waited for a creak that never came. Walking inside I spotted Taylor in the corner in a rocking chair, she looked so peaceful and was looking down at a bundle of blankets and I knew that was our baby. I didn't even know the sex of the baby but it didn't really matter. I could care less if it were a boy or girl. "Taylor..." I spoke softly and she looked up at me.
"Karlie..." she breathed back and then stood I walked towards her and kissed her forehead before looking down. Taylor was holding the most beautiful baby that I had ever seen. "Is that-" I fumbled with my words and Taylor looked at me. "This is her, do you want to hold her?" I looked at her.
"A girl?" Taylor smiled and nodded and it felt amazing. She carefully handed our daughter to me and I noticed I feeding tube I looked at Taylor. "It comes out later today, it was just to give her milk and vital nutrients overnight." I sighed in relief and Taylor told me to sit down. I sat where I watched Taylor sit, the rocking chair. Gently cradling her tiny body to mine I rocked and Taylor knelt down next to the chair. "What are we going to call her?" Taylor questioned. I honestly had no idea. I looked at her, "No idea babe, what do you think?" She wasn't sure either the only thing we had agreed on was her last name, 'Swift-Kloss' because that was the name that we were using once we got married, we wanted to share each other's names but I would still use Karlie Kloss for modelling and Taylor would use Taylor Swift for music. It sounded perfect now we just needed the name in front of it.

We sat in the nursery for two hours until a whimpering alerted us that she was awake. The nurse came over and took her and wanted to do tests and remove the tube so we decided to get lunch and decide her name. Kissing her head goodbye I saw her brilliant blue eyes for the first time and I fell in love all over again. Taylor just smiled already having seen her eyes multiple times. The nurse smiled. "Looks like this baby has blue eyes, we will see your mommy's later little one." We both smiled and left. Linking hands we walked towards the cafeteria that the hospital had. "How was the flight home Karlie?"
"So long..." I whined. "How was the hospital?" I questioned knowing how much she hated them.
"Terrible and smelly." I laughed as we ate a salad between us. It was so good. "So..." she stated.
"So..." I countered. "Names?" I questioned. She looked at me.
"You'll think this is nuts but I have a few ideas," I smiled and motioned for her to continue. "Okay so I have; Olive, Olivia, Poppy, Pippa, Piper and Paige." She finished with a smile.
"They are all 'P' or 'O'." I stated as she grinned.
"Yeah well 'T' is the twentieth letter of the alphabet and 'K' is the eleventh so I had to go in the middle and the median number would be 15.5 so I picked 'P' and 'O' names." I smiled, I loved it.
"Sounds great baby, which one do you like best?" She smiled and said.
"I like Paige best, simply because Cara's sister is called Poppy and Pippa is close to Pippa Middleton and I want our daughter to be unique but with a normal name, I'm not naming her after a fruit." I laughed thinking about the celebrity kids named weird things. I smiled and said, "Paige it is, how about Paige Alison Swift-Kloss..." She smiled at me.
"No, let's do Alison Paige Swift-Kloss." I smiled and said it was perfect. Our little angel now had a name. Walking back to the hospital we signed all the documents and provided her name and the doctor said she could go home tomorrow. We nodded and said we had to shop so we left for the nursery and saw Jo putting her down she paused when she saw us but we kissed Alison goodbye and left for the shops. Today had been a long day but full of excitement.

Taylor's P.O.V

I was officially overwhelmed. The minute Karlie and I walked into the baby store it all hit me. We adopted a baby. We weren't even married. I began to hyperventilate until Karlie spotted me. "Baby, relax. Listen to my voice. Relax." It began to work as I felt my breathing slow down and I felt back to normal. "You okay?" she questioned as she rubbed my back. I nodded but burst into tears. "Hey, it's okay to be overwhelmed." I pulled back and looked at her. She just smiled. "I promise it's okay." I looked at her but before I could say anything she said, "Let's do the important stuff first." I nodded and she grinned. "Great, then lets shop." We found a sales assistant who looked like they knew what they were doing and explained that we needed everything for a two week old baby. She nodded and walked in front of us, walking past a desk she took a tick chart and started to talk. "Okay ladies, so you will defiantly need a crib, change table, bouncy chair, jungle play gym..." I looked at her as she said the gym thingy. "Really?" she looked at me and smiled.
"Trust me, it will come in handy when you need to change a nappy on the ground or get them to stop crying. Worked for my three boys." I watched Karlie smile and take in everything around us. "Okay that sounds great." She led us to the cribs and we selected a white one with the matching change table. This was around the time I started to get excited and forgot about the anxiety side of things. "That's better babe." Karlie whispered in my ear. I turned and hugged her as we moved towards the prams, bouncy seats and baths. "Ooh Karlie look at that one." I stated pointing to a beautiful black buggy pram. It was perfect and we could take it out on the street and hide her away from the paparazzi. Karlie nodded and Lisa the assistant added it to our already building list.

An hour later we emerged from the shop, it was nearly 3.00pm and we had arranged for the crib, change table, pram, bouncy seat, jungle gym, baby bath, carrier and car seat to be taken to our apartment. They agreed to deliver and assemble the crib as long as someone was there to meet them. We agreed that they would come at 4.30pm and we could direct them on where to put everything. They were more than happy to agree at as Karlie and I left Starbucks and headed home we reminisced over the day we had just experienced. The clothing bags filled the SUV as we called a meeting for our security guys and managers at 4.00pm. By 4.15pm everyone had been told and Tree and Zoe had left to inform major papers and magazines. By the next day everyone would know. We were posting to Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook and Instagram tonight once we had done the nursery up for our little Allie. Hours later we crawled into bed after calling to check on Allie who was fine and setting up the nursery and Skype calling our parents in a three way conversation and we now felt that everyone knew. Our friends had been texted and Lily had responded saying, 'Never say never.' I had grinned knowing that me taking care of Dixie for one night had made this all possible because without that babysitting session Lily wouldn't have asked me to do the VS Show and I would never have met Karlie so I was thankful to Lily as a permanent smile stuck to my face.
