After I had introduced Simon to Daisy I took her home with me because there wasn't enough room at the moment for her to be living with Simon so she was going to live with me until we find out a better and more suitable solution that would suit us all better as a family. I strapped Daisy into her car seat and then closed the car door and walked round to the drivers seat, I checked the mirror that had been placed on the seat so I could look at Daisy while I was driving and check on her occasionally, she was pulling off her little booties and holding them in her hands I smiled and laughed a little to myself before I reversed out of the driveway and drove back to my flat. When I got home I noticed that Daisy was already fast asleep I rolled my eyes and smiled to myself as I stepped out of the car and walked round to where the car seat was I then opened the door and unbuckled her and carefully lifted her out of the car seat and walked up the drive and into my house where I walked up the stairs and walked into Daisy's new bedroom, I undressed her carefully and then put her to bed. I checked the time and saw that it was nine o'clock I was going to call Simon but then I realised that he would probably be in a Skype call with the boys and playing a video and possibly be recording a video so instead I decided to call Sam and tell him about adopting Daisy, I got my phone and called him.

'Ah Lillie what can I do for you?' He asked
'I just wanted to tell you something.'
'Right go on.' He said slowly
'Simon and I-'
'Wait you're back with Simon?'
'Yeah we have been for a few months now but that's not what I am trying to tell you, Simon and I we adopted a child.'
'A child, how old?' He asked me
'Eleven month old, we adopted her today. To cut a long story short she is Simon's daughter who went up for adoption but he never knew, he told me about this about four months ago and so I decided that for his birthday I would bring her home.' I explained, there was a long pause before Sam said anything else to me but I did hear him sigh heavily and a rhythmic tapping
'Okay right, I want you and Simon to bring her to see me tomorrow at my office.' Sam said sternly
'But I'm filming tomorrow for Love, Rosie.' I told him
'Yes so you are, okay scrap that idea I want you to bring Simon and Daisy to the film set tomorrow and then after we have finished up there we will talk and discuss what we are going to do.'
'You don't mean I have to give my daughter?' I asked Sam, it felt weird calling Daisy my daughter but it wasn't a horrible kind of weird more of a nice and exciting kind that made me smile
'God no! We're just going to discuss how the public will see her and what we are going to do about it that's all.'
'Right well I'll tell Simon later when he's finished recording but he should be able to come tomorrow.'
'Alright then, good night Lillie.'
'Good night Sam.' Sam ended the call so I put down the phone and then changed into my pyjamas I was about to get into bed and go to sleep when Daisy started to wake up and cry so I walked out of my room and into hers, I picked her up and she stopped crying so I took her into my room and placed her carefully on the bed while I got underneath the duvet sheets, I then picked her up again and placed her on my legs she then let out a little smile and a gurgle which made me smile too.

Morning

When I woke up I checked my phone to see that I had a missed call from Simon so I called him back just as I was getting out of my bed to go and check on Daisy who I put back in her cot after she fell asleep on my lap last night.
'What's up Simon?' I asked him
'Sam called me last night and said that he wants me to come to the set where you're filming.' He told me
'Yeah he wants to talk to us both afterwards about Daisy so I'm bringing her too.' I explained as I picked up Daisy with my spare hand and took her into my room where I carefully placed her on the floor to go back into her room and pick out an outfit for her.
'Do you want me to pick you up?' He asked
'No I'll pick you up it's easier that way, that way I don't have to take out Daisy's car seat and put it in yours.'
'Okay sure I'll see you soon. I love you.'
'Love you too.' I ended the call on Simon and walked back into my room with an outfit for Daisy (media) I then dressed her and then quickly dressed myself.

"Come on you lets go pick up daddy and go to mummy's work." I said as I picked up Daisy and carried her down the stairs of my flat and out the door. It didn't take long to get to Simon's house, only because there wasn't any traffic so when we arrived I texted Simon that I was here because I couldn't leave the car and soon enough he came rushing out of the house, he looked at the window and saw Daisy who smiled lightly at him and then carried on playing with a toy that I had given her to keep her occupied.
"So I get to see what you do." Simon smiled as he got into the car
"Yep, well I've seen what you do now you can see what I do." I said smiling at him as I drove down the road heading towards the building that we were filming the final scene at. When we arrived Simon and I got out of the car and he walked round his side and opened the car door to get Daisy out as well. Simon picked her up and carried her in his arms as all three of us were about to walk into the building when I saw the flashing of cameras
"How did they know I was filming here?" I grumbled to myself
"I don't know, what are we going to do? I don't want pictures taken of Daisy not just yet Lillie." Simon said seriously
"I know I know, just let me think. Right I'll go through the normal front doors and you will take Daisy round the back door go towards the signs that say 'filming' and fine either Sam or Dani, she has long bright ginger hair you can't miss her." I explained to Simon who just simply nodded and rushed off round the back of the building while I walked through the front doors having cameras flash at me from every single angle possible. Eventually I got to Sam who smiled and then quickly frowned at me.

"Where's Simon?" He asked me
"He took our daughter round the back of the building because neither of us wanted photos of her from the paparazzi in all the newspapers not just yet." I explained and with Simon walked through the doors right on cue holding our daughter in his arms who was smiling and looked around the room taking it all in, when I saw them both I smiled brightly which caught Daisy's attention towards me
"Hiya!" I said sweetly to her as I kissed her head and stroked her chin, I kissed Simon sweetly and then his passed Daisy over to me.
"Sam I would like you to meet our daughter Daisy Minter." I smiled, Sam smiled at Daisy who seemed to be shy, weirdly she looked at Simon and I for some kind of conformation just to check that it was all okay.
"Go on." Simon smiled to her, Daisy then relaxed and smiled at Sam
"She's gorgeous, now Lillie lets get this film finished and ready for the premiere." Sam said I nodded and passed Daisy back over to Simon before I left them both so I could do my acting but just as I was leaving Daisy started to the cry which caught my attention as she had never cried before so this was new to both Simon and I, so I rushed back over to her quickly and smiled.
"Hey hey hey, it's okay look I'll be done soon." I kissed her head and then walked away so I could go back to recording the last scene of the film.
