3 months later
I groaned, feeling the baby kick at my bladder. "Baby girl, it's two am," I whispered, pulling myself from Liam's arms and standing. I tried to move quickly but ended up just waddling, being 6 months along. At least I wasn't as far along as Belle yet, her being 8 months along.

I quickly went to the bathroom, sighing relieved. I ran my fingers over my greatly ballooning belly, feeling my daughter kick against my hand. Liam and I had found out we were having a girl last month, about three days after she started kicking. Belle was having a boy, finding out right after Christmas break.

I went back to bed, yawning widely. The baby kept me up at night, kicking whenever I tried to sleep and when I finally did fall asleep, would start kicking my bladder. Liam fell asleep quickly, having a large work load for classes.

Thankfully, I only had the basic classes, Potions, Transfiguration, DADA, and Herbology. He was taking three extra classes and an internship with Madam Floyd since he wanted to be a healer. I wanted to be an Auror, but with my daughter on the way, I had to be careful.

I crawled, or rolled, back into bed, groaning. Liam hummed, stirring. "Angel? What's wrong?" he asked sleepily, reaching out. I curled up against him and yawned. "Nothings wrong love, I promise. Your daughter just decided to kick my bladder," I said amused and he laughed sleepily.

"Sorry darling," he said half asleep and I giggled lightly. I kissed his nose and he chuckled lightly, pulling me against chest. "Sleep baby, we have class in the morning," he said, yawning.

I rolled my eyes and tucked my head into his neck, arms around my belly. Liam fell asleep almost immediately but I couldn't. Every time I tried, the baby kicked, startling me. A half hour later, tears came to my eyes as my exhaustion got the best of me.

"Baby please, let me sleep," I begged, trying to get comfortable. I closed my eyes, focusing on Liam's steady heartbeat. The sound was lulling me to sleep, but right when I was about to, the baby gave a particularly hard kick waking me up again.

A sob ran through my body, exhaustion heavy but unable to sleep. Liam woke up as my body shook, a hand running across my forehead. "Z? Baby what's wrong?" he asked worriedly and I rolled over, cuddling into his side.

"She's not letting me sleep," I said, sobs running through my body harshly. The baby kicked a few more times, making the force of the tears flow harder. I couldn't stop.

Liam hugged me tightly, trying to calm me. "Here, let me talk to her," he said, placing a hand on my stomach. I nodded, trying to calm my shakes. He leaned down, obviously tired but concern more predominant in his expression.

"Hey there baby girl, it's Papa," he whispered softly and I literally felt her slow her movements. "Can you please calm your kicks? Daddy is trying to sleep but he can't if you're kicking. Please calm down love?" She kicked one more time before settling down.

Liam and I waited a second before sighing in relief. He moved back to me, pulling me onto his chest again. "How long as this been going on?" he asked worriedly and I bit my lip. "Th-The last two or three weeks?" I said hesitantly and he frowned.

"Why hadn't you told me before? I could have helped before," he asked confused and I shrugged, avoiding his eyes. "I didn't want to bother you. You're taking more classes and I don't know. You need your sleep," I said softly and he sighed.
