Bumps On The Road

Chapter 13

I woke at 5am differencing from not only my newborn baby but jetlag, I was beyond exhausted, I got up and took a shower, washing my hair with hotel shampoo, taking my time until I had to go to my baby when she screamed, I heard Harry come into the bathroom, he stuck his head in to the shower pecked me on the lips as his face got plastered with hot water, I got out to brush my teeth alongside Harry in my towel, I playfully shoved him to the side laughing he chuckled and finished up, stripped down and got into the shower.

Not feeling like getting dressed I stayed in my robe waiting for Harry, and turned the tv on. He came out in towel wrapped around his torso his tattoos flaunting his chest and arms. "Hi" he caught my gaze, I smiled up at him "hello" I said back he walked over to me say down and looked me in the eyes "how are you feeling?" He asked me "not sure, I'm sorta happy but sorta sad, I can't explain it". Harry knowing I wasn't my best since Ava was born, we were told this would happen post partum depression is normal and I just needed to look after myself not doing anything too extreme. Harry was just checking in to see how I was.

Honestly I didn't think I would want anything to do with Harry anytime soon after I had the baby. I was still mad at him for putting me through labor, I still thought it was all his fault but somehow I was past that. I looked at him and I fell in love all over again, I loved him and no baby or labor would ever tear my love for him apart, I thought it would, I feared it would.

Knowing we coundnt do anything more than kiss given I was still healing, and in reality I really didn't want anyone touching me anywhere, I kissed the trail from his forehead to his chin leaving a kiss on the corner of his lips.

He smiled back at me and leaned back on the bed. We settled for watching tv cozy in each others arms, we were content until Ava woke up crying, I groaned and hid my face in Harry's shoulder. Getting up to feed her I got back in my spot next my husband.
