how I feel but I'm scared
of being hurt again, scared
of you not feeling the same
and scared of falling harder.❞

Scarlett's POV
I gazed outside at the trees flowing in the wind that night.
The stars were slowly peeking here way through the cloudy sky and I smiled. It was a lovely night.
Turning around, I learnt down to pick up little baby Paul and rested him on my shoulder. He nestled his head into my neck and I stroked him lightly on his back.
He cooed and warmth spreads through my body.
"You putting him down soon?" Benedict asks me and walks behind me, hugging me from behind.
"Yes, he's getting sleepy." I say and he pecks me on the cheek.
"Where are the girls?" He asks and I respond quietly.
"Sleeping upstairs..." My voice drifts off and I lean my head against baby Paul.
"See you in bed honey..." Benedict disappears into our bedroom and I slowly make my way to the cot.
I placed Paul on his favourite blanket covered in giraffes, and kissed him goodnight as his eyes closed.
There was an air of silence in the house and I dragged myself onto the bed and sighed.
I felt Benedict's hand on my back and I groaned.
"Long day baby?" I nod. "Well, I can make it better..." He leaned forward and kissed my neck.
"Mmmmmm..." I moan and turn around, pressing my lips onto his.
Until a familiar cry echoed through the house and I shake my head.
"Damn Scar... Not a moment to ourselves!" He fell flat on his back into the bed and I lightly pecked him.
"He's a baby, he's going to cry..." I get up but a hand is firmly placed onto my shoulder.
"Wait... Let me get him..."
"Thank you..." I say and lay back into bed.
"You're okay little one, eh? Stop crying... Everything is fine..." I catch Benedict whispering soothingly to Paul and I was so happy, but so exhausted.
A minute felt like hours and a couple of minutes later Benedict shook my arm.
"Hm...?" I murmur.
"I think he wants his Mommy..." I tap my belly and Benedict places Paul, on his belly, onto my belly and I soothe him.
Paul slowly drifted to sleep.
As did we.
