"Okay, bag, pacifier, bottle, diapers and he's got a onesie in there."..."Keira's got her blanket and pyjama's in her bag." Dinah recited, handing over her children's packed bags.

You and your girlfriend had agreed to babysit Norminah's children for the night, as their regular babysitter had fallen ill. So, the two women were standing in your doorway with all of the essentials and their two children. Normani had their 3 year old daughter, Keira, securely on her hip and Dinah was carrying their 5 month old son in his car seat.

"thankyou so much for this guys." Normani said sweetly.

"Yeah thankyou, we owe you one." Her wife added.

"That's okay guys."..."we love looking after the little munchkins." Lauren spoke up, tickling Keira's sides and making her giggle loudly.

"Yeah guys, honestly it's no problem."

Dinah smiled gratefully, "Call me if you have any problems, I will keep my phone on lou-"

Lauren placed her hand on her best friends shoulder. "Blah blah, yep, we got you D, now go have a lovely dinner with your wife."

Dinah laughed at your girlfriend before handing their son over in his baby carrier.

"Hey there little man!" You cooed in your best baby voice, looking intently to the tiny boy.

He gave a toothless smile, making you awww and then you heard their little girl speak up.

"Bye mommy, bye mama."

"Bye princess, be good for your aunt's okay?"

"Okay mommy." She replied and Dinah kissed the top of her head.

Normani smiled at her daughter, then turned her attention to their son. "Be good little prince."

You were now smiling at the cuteness and the pair turned to walk down your driveway.

"See you later guys!"

"See you in the morning!"

When the girls had left, you lifted Keira into your arms. "Okay, sweetie, what would you like to do?"..."We can bake, watch cartoons, movies-"

"Movie!" She squealed excitedly with a huge grin, jumping up and down in your embrace.

"Okay, let's goooo."..."Laur, can you grab the baby."

"Sure darling."..."Come on Zane, let's follow the crazies." She joked, lifting the baby out of the seat and securing his little body in her arms.

The four of you walked into your living room and you carefully placed the little girl down. You giggled to yourself, watching her dive onto one of the comfy sofa's, her little legs dangling over the side.

Lauren sat down in the arm chair with the baby and bounced him on her knee, causing him to erupt into a fit of giggles.

"Awwww." You cooed, watching the cute encounter between your girlfriend and godson. "He's too cute."

Then you heard Kiera's little voice, "Aunt y/n, pwease can I have some juice?"

"Aw, of course sweetie, Laur do you want a drink?"

"I'm okay babe, but Zaney would love a Vodka and Coke, hold the ice though." She joked.

"Funny." Was all that you said before heading to the kitchen to get some juice for the little girl.

As you left the room, Lauren reached for the remote control to put a movie on for your god daughter.

Keira clapped her hands excitedly and then squealed when she realized that Lauren was putting her favorite Disney movie on; Finding Nemo.

"Yaaaaay!" She cheered.

"Aw, you like fishies Keira?" Lauren asked, relaxing back on the sofa with the baby, watching her jump excitedly in her seat and nodded with enthusiasm.

"We'll have to tell momma and mama to buy you some!" She cooed, then suddenly a strong smell attacked her senses.

With a now scrunched up face, she complained. "What is that smell?"

Keira shrugged, distracted by her favorite film as your girlfriend tried to locate where the strong smell was coming from.

Sniffing around, she located it as coming from the baby on her lap. "Zane! I love you but you're a stinky baby!" The singer joked, holding him out in front of her and cringing at the smell.

"I think Zaney need's changing aunt Lolo." Keira chirped, then turned back to watch the movie.

Lauren now had wide eyes and gasped. "No way." She said beneath her breath, having never changed a baby diaper before.

Immediately turning to the kitchen, she hollered loudly.

"BABE!"

You heard her shout and this made you panic. As you ran back into the room with a cup of juice for Keira, you scanned the room for danger.

"What?!"..."What happened?!"..."Do I need to call 9.1.1?"..."Eurgh, what. is. that. smell?"

"Babe, I think Zane needs changing." She spoke up, sniffing up once more. "No, he definitely needs changing."

You passed Keira the juice, then looked to your girlfriend with wide eyes, you had never changed a baby either.

"You know what to do right?" You asked.

"Nope."..."I thought you did."

"Nope."

You watched as she shrugged, carefully laid the five month old on her knee and rolled up her sleeves. "Oh well rock, paper, scissors-"

"Lauren, we are not playing rock paper scissors to determine who changes the baby!"

She tilted her head to the side again, "Joint effort?"

You nodded in agreement. "Let's do this, how hard can it be?"..."we got this babe."
