Taylor Swift One-Shots

Auntie Harpie

Harper's POV

Ellie had a baby about three days ago so mommy and daddy have been helping her a lot.they give me food and put me to bed but after that they have to constantly help with the new baby. Tommy cries a lot and I hate it because Ellie's room is across from mine so when I sleep with my door open I can hear him crying all night. Even my nap time gets ruined by the baby.

I haven't even been allowed to hold him yet! Apparently I could give him germs and make him sick. It offends me that they think that.

While I was laying in bed trying to get back to sleep for the millionth time that night I felt very sensitive. I had tried to not go to mommy and daddy because they are probably tired too and they have enough to deal with but I really wanted a cuddle. I hate the loud noise and the louder it got the more upset I started to get. For some reason I was too tired to cry though.

I decided to head to mommy's room and try getting in their bed without waking them up. I tiptoed past Ellie's room trying to be quiet so that I can't be blamed for any further crying and I dragged my blankie and Billy bear behind me to mommy and daddy's room. I slowly pushed the door open and mommy was awake with daddy talking. They were probably going back to sleep after helping Ellie.

"Awh there's my little Harpie-Bug! I've barely seen you baby. What are you doing awake at 4 in the morning?" Mommy cooed, opening her arms. I had tears running down my cheeks but I just didn't have the energy to cry or talk. I tried to climb onto her bed but I ran out of energy and fell straight onto the floor on my head.

Instead of screaming I let out a huff of defeat and just lay down on the floor, enjoying the quiet. "Come here baby. Let mommy help you, I've got you come on." Mommy told me quietly. She reached out an arm to help me stand up then put her hands under my armpits and lifted me up into her lap. I sighed in content and cuddled into her.

Daddy sat up and put on a light, knowing I hate the dark before closing the door to block out the noise. Mommy tilted her head to look at me and her expression immediately changed. "Have you been sleeping? You look exhausted." She whispered.

I looked at her with tears in my eyes and then turned away. She immediately pulled me close to her and rocked me from side to side. Daddy ran downstairs quickly probably to help Ellie so mommy turned me to face her. "Let me in baby, what's wrong. If you tell me, I can help you. That's what mommy is here for." She whispered, probably even quieter than before.

I felt her thumb wipe away each tear that ran down my cheek. I didn't want to make her feel bad because Ellie and the baby need her more but I'm supposed to be her baby and she just hasn't been here. I just desperately wanted her cuddles.

"Please can I sleep in here? I won't wriggle and I will sleep. I promise. It's too loud in my room. I want to cuddle and I want you and daddy. Please mommy. I tried being in my own bed but it's too loud." I told her, finally letting myself cry. Mommy's face softened even more and I felt her hand on the back of my head pulling me into her chest. I nuzzled into my blankie and sobbed against her.

"Oh, baby. It's okay if you want to stay with us. I didn't realize you hadn't been sleeping honey. Why didn't you say? Daddy has gone to get you some milk okay. You didn't drink yours before bed. Is there any reason? Are you feeling okay?" She asked me. I cried and shrugged, happy to finally be with mommy again.

She put her hand against my forehead then rubbed my back and allowed me to cry. Daddy came in and handed her my bottle of milk so she turned me to a different position. She cradled me in her lap as if I was her own baby and gently rocked me back and forth. She put the bottle to my mouth and at first I accepted it and enjoyed having my normal life back, however I soon turned away and gripped onto mommy.

I felt clingy.

"I like it better when Tommy was in Ellie's tummy. I want to be the youngest again." I confessed. I looked down and felt bad for saying it but mommy understood and so did daddy. They sat me up in the middle of them which I didn't like because I was comfy but they both wanted to talk to me.

"Tiny, we love you more than anything in this world. I know you might not be the youngest anymore in this house but you're still our little baby. When Ellie is ready she will move to her apartment again and Tommy will go with her and it will be like you're the baby of the house again. Ellie just needs extra help at the minute from mommy and myself. That doesn't take away from how much we love you." Daddy told me. I looked down and nodded.

"I just wish that you was there when I was a baby. And I don't like how loud it is. I just miss my sleep." I admitted.

Mommy placed her hand on my back, indicating that she wanted me to look at her. "Baby, you're still ours, I know we weren't there from the start and I may not have carried you for nine months but that doesn't take anything away. I think that we have given you more than enough love to make up for all of those years that you missed without us. I know it's loud, honey, we will sort that out for you but tonight we can cuddle in here. Let's wipe away those tears and get you all cuddled up and we can get some sleep. I will stay with you the whole time too. I won't go anywhere." Mommy told me. I nodded and climbed back into her lap whining.

She wiped away my tears one more time and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I'm sure if it was daytime I would have lipstick smudge there. I reached over and despite how much I hate asking for things I gently pulled at her shirt. It's definitely Travis'. "What's wrong, Angel?" She asked me.

"Off." I mumbled.

She immediately took the hint and took of Travis' shirt and then took off my onesie and lay me against her. She also grabbed my pacifier and put it in my mouth before tucking Billy and my blankie under my arm. I sighed in content feeling how warm she was compared to me and finally closed my eyes. She covered us both up and lay down properly. Travis turned off the light and put on a tiny night light before getting in beside us. Normally he cuddles us both when we are trying to sleep to make us feel more protected but he knows when I just need mommy and when I need them both.

They know me so well and I know they will find a solution to this for me.
