The Hiddlestons

Ch 10

Tom's POV
I woke up to see Taylor still asleep on the couch. I let her stay there because she is exhausted. I walk up to go check on Marie. Marie looks just like her mum. The only thing that didn't come from her was the curly hair. It's got a little bit of curls but not much. As I walk into the nursery I see Sophie holding Marie in her arms. Sophie looks at me and I smile. She is such a good sister to Marie. Soon Marie starts to cry. Sophie gets up and hands me to her. "I think she's hungry." She says to me. I walk down stairs and Taylor wakes up when she hears her baby's cry. I hand Marie to her and she starts to feed. And her little hand goes up to Tay's necklace.
Taylor's POV
Sophie has been such a big help with Marie. Her and Marie have such a special bond too. Even though she's not even a month old you can still see a special bond between them. When Marie fusses, Sophie goes and picks her up and she'll stop. Until she gets hungry or needs a change. Tom has been so helpful too. And he always wants to be included in the feedings, so I let him burp her.
Today, Tom's mom, sister, and niece are coming over to meet Marie. I'm so exhausted. I don't want to sleep though because they are coming in about an hour. Tom and I are cuddling on the couch and I try not to fall asleep. It's so hard though.

Marie woke me up at three in the morning. As I get up to walk to her room, I hear crying. It's coming from Sophie's room. I go back and tell Tom to get Marie's bottle from he fridge to feed her while I check on Sophie. I open her door slowly and quietly. I see her crying on her bed. "Sophie, what's the matter?" I ask as I sit next to her on the bed. "Marie get more of yours and Tom's attention. I feel very left out. I feel like you don't love me as much as her." She says. My heart sinks. I never wanted her to feel that way. I hug her really tight. "Hey, we love you very much. You've been such a big help. How 'bout this, tomorrow, it can be a you and me day?" I say to her. She looks at me. And nods her head. "Alright now go back to sleep. I love you so much. Don't ever forget that." I say and kiss her on the forehead. "Can I talk to dad first?" She says. "Of course."
Tom's POV
Taylor told me that Sophie wanted to talk to me. She told me that Sophie was not in a good state right now so to be quiet and gentle while talking. I walk in her room and see her crying.
"Hey Sophie, what's the matter?" I ask her once she climbs on my lap. "I feel like you and mom don't love me as much as you love Marie. You guys pay more attention to her than me." She says and starts crying. I rock her like Taylor did when she broke her ankle. "Sophie, let me tell you something. Taylor and I both love you very much. You are the highlight of our life. You have been such a big help with the baby. I promise that we didn't forget about you. We never could. You are so special to us. Please always come to me or Taylor when you feel this way okay?" I say. And just hug her. "Okay. Thank you." She says quietly. "I love you Sophie." I say and kiss her head. "I love you too dad." She says and falls asleep in my arms.
Sophie's POV
Today, Taylor and I are going to have a girls day. I'm really excited. We haven't gotten to do this since she adopted me. I know her and Tom love me. I was in a very dark place last night. And I read some Instagram comments that said she didn't love me anymore. It was a lot of them. It really hurt me. "Sophie, are you ready to go?" Taylor asks me as she steps into my room. "Yes. But can you help me wing my eyeliner? because I can't get them to be even." I ask her. "Sure." She says a chuckles. We say goodbye to Marie and Tom, and head out. "Where are we going?" I ask her. "How about Starbucks first then the mall?" She asks. "That sounds amazing." I say back. We turn on the radio and Blank Space comes on. I go full on fangirl mode and just dance and sing in the car. She does the same.
Taylor's POV
Sophie and I were walking in the mall and I had taken a few pictures with some fans. After a while a couple of girls had come up to me. They gave really dirty looks to Sophie. "Can we get a picture?" One of them says. "Of course." I say. "Here, can you take the picture?" The other on says very rude to Sophie. "Uh sure." She says and takes the picture. As she hands their phone back, they snatch it out of her hand. "Mom, can we leave?" Sophie says and looks at me. I nod and we leave. "Sophie, did you know them?" I ask her. "Actually, they left me rude comments on my Instagram. And telling me to kill myself and calling me rude names." She tells me.
