the outsiders oneshots BOOK 1

•TWO-BIT•

this was the third time this night that your newborn baby had woken you up with her crying. i felt two-bit's warm arms wrapped around my waist and i sighed. i didn't want to move, but i couldn't just leave her to cry.

i tried to move out of his arms without waking him up but whenever i started moving he moaned. "mmm, i'll get her," he grumbled still half asleep,"be right back."

he climbed out of bed and left the room. i laid my head on his pillow, it smelled like his cologne and it was comforting. i started to slowly fall back asleep and that was when i heard his singing a lullaby.

i smiled and pulled the covers off of me, i wanted to see this. i tiptoed to the nursery and saw two-bit sitting in the rocking chair with our baby and singing to her, he hadn't seen me yet. she was fast asleep in her daddy's arms. (back of kid he's my daddy)

he got up and put her in her crib and watched her sleep for a few minutes. i walked up behind him and trailed my hand down his arm to his hand. he turned his head and smiled sleepily at me.

i laid my head against his chest and he wrapped his arms around the small of my back.
a kiss was placed on my hand and he whispered,"she looks like you, the hair bit."

i whispered back,"she's got your smile and eyes though." i looked at my baby, she really did smile like two-bit. she had a laugh like his as well, just a tad different.

"you ready to go back to bed?" two asked. i shook my head.

"i wanna watch her for awhile, she looks so peaceful. you can go if you want though," i whispered looking up at him. he said he would stay with me.

he sat down in the rocking chair and i sat in his lap, bridal style with my legs hanging off the arm of the chair. i had my head laying in the crook of his neck.

me and two-bit both fell asleep in the chair and she didn't cry again that night.
