TRUST ME - a Joult fanfic- Book 2

TRUST ME - chapter 1

Chapter 1:

For Layla to be asleep, and the house to be completely silent has been rare these last two months. I mean I knew babies cry, but I had no idea that they cried so much.
I'm so tired, I can't remember the last time I had a peaceful night sleep. I feel so lonely and depressed. Every night I collapse into my lonely bed, after spending hours trying to get Layla to fall asleep. Sometimes I think I shouldn't of had a baby. I've been raising Layla all on my own because Nic is away in England shooting a movie.

I occasionally Skype call him but he almost never answers, and when he does I tell him how Layla is, but I so badly want to tell him how I feel but I never get the chance, Nic always has to go, he ends the Skype call leaving me to cry myself to sleep.

I wake up to Layla's wailing cries. Sighing, I lift her gently out of her cot and carry her into the sitting room. I hold her small body in my arms and begin to feed her. I'm sick of this. I've sick of having literally no one to talk to. I feel as if I'm going to just fall down and die one of these days.

Tears fill my eyes, and spill down my cheeks, and before I know it I'm squeezing Layla and crying into her tiny shoulder. I eventually pull myself together and gaze into Layla's beautiful green eyes, a soft tuft of blonde hair has began to grow on her small pink head.

"It's me and you against the world baby girl." I say to her and suddenly a small smile appears on her chubby little face.
