Danily Family

First Dance

EMILYS P.O.V

"Em, just let me take him," Daniel said reaching out his hands.

"Daniel I'm fine," I said trying to stop the baby from crying.

"Em you're obviously not fine," he pointed out.

"I'm trying ok, he's sick, he's being difficult. There is nothing either of us can do," I said.

I turned my back on him and walked away from the party tent so I was away from the noise and maybe Thomas would sleep.

"Sh sh honey," I said rocking him back and forward.

I walked along the path looking over the ocean and I gently laid him against my chest so he was upright.

"Is that better?" I asked rubbing his back.

He let out a ting whimper and yawned. I gently put the dummy in his mouth and he sucked it and closed his eyes.

"Go to sleep baby," I said turning around and heading back towards the party.

"Em!" Nolan said as he walked out.

"Shhhh!" I hissed.

"Sorry, but your groom awaits you for your first dance," he said smiling.

"Don't you dare wake him up," I said handing him Thomas.

"Wouldn't dream of it Ems. Let's go," he said.

Thomas moved slightly and let out a whimper and a cry. I moved next to Nolan and stroked his forehead.

"It's ok baby, mummy's here," I said.

He quieted down and went back to sleep as we walked back into the tent. I walked into the middle of the floor and Daniel grabbed my hands.

"I'm sorry," I said.

"Don't be honey, it's not your fault," he said moving his hand to stroke my cheek. "Will you dance with me?"

"I would love to."

He moved his arms so one was around my waist and the other was holding one if my hands, and my I moved my arms so my other arm was on his shoulder.

"You're beautiful," he whispered in my ear.

"I love you," I said kissing his cheek.

"I love you too."

Nolan walked up to the two of us with the baby.

"May I dance with your wife?" He asked Daniel with a cheeky grin.

"I'll swap you," Daniel said gently taking Thomas from his arms.

"Go put him in the pram to sleep Daniel," I said taking Nolan's hand and putting my arm on his shoulder.

NO ONES P.O.V

After Nolan and Emily had finished dancing Emily picked up the baby again and everyone moved over to cut the cake.

"Are you ready beautiful?" Daniel asked as Emily picked up the knife.

She nodded and Daniel put his hand over hers. They gently cut through the delicate icing until the knife hit the bottom. Their lips moved together and they kissed again and Thomas began to cry.

"Aww baby," Daniel said kissing his forehead.

The waitress moved over and cut slices of cake while Daniel and Emily moved outside again.
