Y/n's POV

It's been two wild and wonderful months since Aurora arrived, and she definitely inherited her mom's vocal cords. When she cries, she really lets you know—just like now, she's being fussy and cranky.

I'm hanging out at our new home with Maddox and Tess while Ariana, Courtney, and Lilly are out for lunch and shopping. Those three have really bonded lately, and I'm relieved that Ari's moved past the fact that Lilly and I hooked up in the past. Plus Lilly is completely smitten and obsessed with Tess, and Tess follows Lilly around like a little puppy dog. Courtney's expecting their baby girl in a couple of months, so Ari and Lilly are out pampering her.

"Maddox, can you grab a bottle for your niece?" I called out as I quickly took off my shirt, knowing exactly what Aurora needed. Maddox came running in and asked, "Why are you stripping?" I chuckled and replied, "Rora loves skin-to-skin contact." I took off her clothes, leaving her in just her diaper, and held her against my chest. She immediately snuggled in like Ari does and stopped crying. Maddox laughed and said, "Wow."

We returned to the living room where Tess was sitting on the couch with the movie paused

We returned to the living room where Tess was sitting on the couch with the movie paused. She looked up at us and asked, "What's wrong with my niece?" When she saw me and Aurora shirtless, she laughed and said, "Ah, she needed skin-to-skin." Tess couldn't stop chuckling as she watched Aurora calm down in my arms. I handed her the bottle, and she latched on right away. I'm so glad Ari prepared plenty of bottles before heading out.

I settled back on the couch with Rora still snuggled up on my chest. Her tiny hands were wrapped around my sports bra straps, my left arm was supporting her bottom, and my right hand was feeding her the bottle. Tess, still smiling, said, "Man, she looks like you, but then I see Ari." I grinned and replied, "She's perfect, man." I took a big sniff of her baby scent, which I'm absolutely obsessed with.

Maddox, flops back on the couch and suddenly asked with a grin, "So when are you letting me drive your new car?" I laughed and said, "Never!" Tess burst into laughter at my response.
