Taylor's pov
————Havyn had been cuddled on me for hours, she had drifted off to sleep. Travis had sat on the other side of the couch.
"She really scared you, didn't she?" He mumbled, looking at me.
I nodded, my stomach still felt sick like I could lose her at any moment.
"Tay," Travis stroked his thumb against my cheek, "we've got her."
"I know, I can't lose her." I whispered at him, he just wrapped his strong arm around Havyn and I. Allowing me to rest my head on his shoulder, letting him kiss the top of my head. He made me feel like everything would be okay, even when it's not.
I stared at Havyn, her features were so similar to mine apart from how fragile she looked. I sometimes feel like she'll just snap in half when I hug her. I'm still worried about her eating intake, especially at school. Did she eat her sandwiches or did she bin them? I realised how unready she was for public school. She was still healing and I threw her into the deep end, forcing her to learn how to swim.

Awhile later, Travis and I were watching tv with Havyn in the same position. I heard small footsteps coming towards us, Maisie appeared in the doorway.
"Hey baby, you okay?" I smiled at her.
"Bad dream." She whispered, I realised she had tears in her eyes.
"Come here girly." Travis extended his arms for her, she accepted happily. Cuddling into his chest, feeling safety.
"Tell us what happened." I squeezed her foot gently. She started explaining her dream about monsters and villains to us, typical kid nightmare. She looked so scared from it, my heart broke for her.
Travis rubbed her back, "aw Maisie, that sounds scary. What bad guys do I need to fight off?"
She snuggled into him more, definitely a daddy's girl compared to Havyn and Theo wanting me all the time. Don't get me wrong Maisie and I are close but Travis just seems to get her in a way I don't. It bothers me a little, only sometimes.
Havyn slowly stirred in her sleep, probably from Maisie's loud explanation. The sound effects were the scariest part apparently. I stroked Havyns cheek gently, making sure she was okay waking up in my arms.
"Hey Haves." I smiled at her.
"Mhmm." She moaned sleepily. Her cuteness was heart warming, part of me couldn't believe we had three kids. I loved every minute of being their mom.
"Let's get you back to bed, Maisie Moo, and I'll sort your monsters out." Travis stood up with Maisie in his arms, carrying her upstairs back to bed.
I slowly woke Havyn up to go to bed, she looked exhausted after everything she's been through recently.
"Mom?" Her eyes were fluttering open slowly, I knew the name change would take awhile. I was just happy she was here, safe and sound.
"I'm here, sweet girl." I brushed her hair from her face. She clung to my shirt tightly, nuzzling into my chest as she lifted her gaze to meet mine.
"Ready for bed?" I asked softly.
She nodded, "I don't want to be alone."
"I'm right here, always." I reassured her, helping her upstairs.

Havyns pov
I woke up next to Taylor in my room, realising I had school. Taylor's alarm started to go off, waking her up in the process.
