Vanessa's Baby

Coming home

"Liv do you want to hold her?" Kate held up the sleeping baby out for me to grab, I picked her up and bounced her in my arms "hey there pretty girl, when you get a little older we're gonna have a lot of fun" I felt my eyes stinging again, she wasn't even my kid but yet I was so drawn to her.

"That's aunt Vanessa, and look there's auntie Aidy!" I smiled at her as I went around the room introducing her to new family. Mom picked her up and started to sing to her.

The nurse came back and took her to the nursery, when she came back Beck took her and had a daddy daughter moment with her in the corner.

We all proceeded to pass her around the room and admire how beautiful she turned out. "God she's so pretty" Kate whispered through the silence standing over the newborn.

"Kate it's one in the morning, you can't stand over her and watch her all night"

"I know, but I want to" she sighed and touched the infants nose.

"C'mon Kate, get in the bed. I know you're tired"

"Will you watch her for me?"

"Sure" I got up from the long  sofa where Aidy was sleeping on the end of.

I stood over her thinking about how we would do it all over again in nine more months.

The next morning

They let Kate go home with Eva, Beck drove them home and I went home with mom. I called to check in on them about every twenty minutes until Kate told me to stop.

I decided to go back to sleep, I didn't sleep the night before because I spent the whole night watching Eva sleep. "Mom I'm gonna go to bed"

"Yeah me too"

We went to sleep and didn't wake up until noon. I had a raging headache and decided to get some work done, mom was filling in for Kate while she was out on maternity leave so we just decided we would work together.

I turned on the bachelorette and let mom rant while I filled out some papers. "I mean really!? No one is that fucking pretty! That's not fair, like Leslie said get her a date, that's a fuckin' challenge"

"When did you become so ghetto ?!" I laughed and held my head

"It's just, it's not fucking fair"

"You realize the baby can hear in the womb right?"

"Oh please, she can't hear anything"

"What makes you sure it's a she"

"Because I can feel it"

"I bet you're wrong"

She rolled her eyes and started typing away on her Mac. I got hungry and decided to make some toast despite the time.

"Hey come here" mom yelled from the living room.

"I'm literally right next to you"

"Oh sorry. Anyway I was thinking we could get this for Kate and Beck for the baby"

She turned the screen to face me and pointed to a crib set "she already has her nursery set up"

"So? This one is a lot cuter"

"Fine."

We ordered the pink crib set and ended up having to order it twice. Dad walked in and put his arms around mom "hey babe. I'm going to bed"

"What? What time is it"

"9:13"

"Geez, we've been cutting up for the past nine hours"

"No we haven't. We didn't wake up until two" I looked over at her and cocked my brow.

"Shut up"

She stood up and followed dad upstairs to bed, I stayed up until about eleven and eventually fell asleep on the couch with the papers all over the coffee table.

Sorry this chapter was so short, I promise they'll be longer in the future. ❤️😊❤️
