| Y/N's POV |
A/N: happy 130th chapter babies 🫶🏻

Five days later, I was feeling a little better. Can't lie, I was a bit lightheaded if I stood up too fast but I didn't feel sick to my stomach either. Which had meant that the sickness that I caught was going away.

I was now able to go back to my family. Emma opened her arms for me, crushing me in a hug that took my breath away. "Thanks for taking care of me." I managed to get out.

Emma chuckled. "Anytime, Y/N. I'll do anything for you and Jen." She smiled and opened her hotel door to reveal Jenna.

She was holding Juno in her arms. Our daughter's eyes lighting up when she saw me. She didn't see me the whole five days I was away.

I reached my arms out for her, taking her in my embrace and kissing her cheek. "She missed you like crazy." Jenna sighed softly. "I had a really hard time getting her to bed half of the night."

"You missed me?" I cooed at Juno, her tiny hands reaching to touch my rosy cheeks. "I missed you too, mamas. I felt so sick but now I feel okay."

"We're glad." Jenna kissed my cheek. I swerved my head so she could give me a proper kiss on the lips. She hummed in surprise but no complaint.

Soon enough we headed back to our hotel room, Juno was half-asleep in my arms. We stood around talking to Emma for at least 10-15 minutes. I mostly held Juno the whole time so I wasn't surprised that she was starting to drift off.

"Has she had a nap?" I asked curiously.

"Nope." Jenna yawned. "Like I said, she didn't want to sleep because she knew you were gone."

That sentence warmed my heart. I looked down at her daughter. She certainly got Jenna's eyes - those glowing, brown hues with such light inside them. The way they looked at me reminded me so much of Jenna. It was adorable.

Jenna unlocked the door, opening for her and I. I walked over to the bed, lying down with my back against the headboard. Juno laid on my chest, her little nose against the soft skin of it.

I could feel her own chest moving up and down with each breath she took. Her mouth was slightly hung open, drool pooling out a little I didn't mind though since she was my baby girl.

It felt as if the world slowed down.

That everything I went through was for this moment.

The moment that I quite literally have the world in the palm of my hands.

And with Juno sleeping in my arms, somehow, everything felt... okay.

—————

Today, the cast, Jenna, and I were going out on the town for the day with Juno. I was pushing her in her stroller, the baby backpack on my shoulders. It was a cute little Minnie Mouse one.

Jenna had her arm around my neck, kissing my cheek as we walked on the sidewalk. Hunter was standing on the other side of me, making faces at Juno as we walked to make her giggle and it worked like a charm.

"She's so cute." Hunter laughed, adjusting his jacket. "She's totally a combination of you both."

"Well, Hunter, the explanation for that is simple. It takes two to make a baby and there's this thing called sexual- hmph." I cut Jenna's words off when I gently slammed my hand over her mouth.

"Jenna. I know." Hunter deadpanned, rolling his eyes and smirking slightly.

"Ooh!" Joy piped up. "When's the wedding?"

Chatter scattered amongst the cast, making Jenna laugh. "We're not sure yet. We're sort of aiming for this December."

"A winter wedding would be so cute." Emma gushed.

"Yeah, get married this year so Trump can't take your rights away." Hunter joked with a tilted head.

"If Trump wins." Georgie corrected him.

If only we knew.

"Who's Billie and Liv going for?" Jenna asked me when we were walking a bit further up ahead from the rest of them.

"Kamala." I answered. "So am I. Billie wants to use her resources to encourage people to vote."

"Well, I don't usually get involved with politics, but I will vote for Kamala just like my beautiful fiancé." She kissed the back of my hand, smiling up at me.

"You're the best." I blushed, brushing her hair back. "Now, let's go see if we can find a dress for Juno when she comes down the aisle."

"Yes!" Jenna cheered, clapping her hands and ruffling Juno's hair softly. "I'm so excited to marry you."

"Ditto, baby."

A/N:
this is shorter than most bcuz I'm a lil out of motivation but I wanted to get a chapter out.

I'm feeling better today (sickness wise) but mentally? nah, not even close. I hate school but I don't really like holiday breaks either, my depression hits the hardest during that.
