LOVING THE BAD BOY

Chapter 99 Whole

"Babe can you make a bottle?" I whispered patting Caydens back as we patiently waited for the photographer to come back into the room.
"Right now?" Danny raised a brow. "Yes he's fussing" I mumbled rocking Cayden as he began to cry as I rubbed his back softly.

Today we were taking professional pictures with Cayden.

I exhaled as Cayden kept crying as Danny was digging through the diaper bag grabbing his formula and bottle not moving fast enough. "Hurry up" I said aggressively. "I am" Danny said in his defense beginning to make the bottle measuring out the correct amount of formula. "Here give me him" Danny said taking Cayden as I took a deep breath a bit stressed out from his crying from not getting any sleep the previous night before. "There there" Danny whispered beginning to feed him walking back and forth. "God sometimes he just doesn't stop" I exhaled placing my hands up to my cheeks leaning over with my elbows on my knees.

"He's a baby?" Danny said in Caydens defense moving his eyebrows down at me looking back at Cayden tilting his bottle up a little more. "I just don't know what he wants sometimes" I rolled my eyes. "Me not you" Danny scoffed as I shook my head looking around the room. "This guy needs to hurry up" I said moving a strand of hair behind my ear. "Calm down" Danny said to me as I glared at him for a moment. "Don't look at me like that" He scoffed as I slowly looked away a bit irritated. I wasn't sure if I was experiencing early signs of postpartum but was beginning to have a short patience with everything and everyone.

"Sorry about that" The photographer politely apologized rushing back into the room. "I had to change my lenses" He said as I stood up adjusting my dress folding my arms looking at Danny. "Give me a second" Danny said finishing feeding the baby as he began to burp him over his shoulder. "Take your time" The photographer said adjusting some props we were using for the background. "I feel weird in this dress" I exhaled placing my hands on my hips.

"I feel bloated" I said sucking my stomach in placing my hand on it. "You look fine" Danny mumbled patting the baby's back as I rolled my eyes. "What's the problem?" Danny asked narrowing his eyes at me. "Nothing I just don't like the dress" I shrugged.
"What's wrong with it?" Danny asked as I was feeling a bit irritated and insecure of my baby weight.
"Okay can we just take the pictures and get this over and done with" I said flipping my hair over my shoulder as Danny gave me a ignorant stare. "What?" I scoffed. "Nothing" He mumbled shaking his head adjusting Caydens shirt as he slowly walked over with him.

"Let's get some of you and dad then we'll do you individually" The photographer suggested as I took a deep breath nodding standing in front of Danny as he moved behind me with Cayden. "Big smile" The photographer said as we posed and smiled for the first few shots. "Feel free to get comfortable" The photographer said as I turned my head to Danny placing my hand up to the side of his face kissing him. "Beautiful" The photographer said as we posed differently for a few more shots.

"Should I hold him like this?" Danny raised a brow at me during his single shot with Cayden as I smiled small nodding cuffing my hands together. "Alright cool" Danny scoffed smiling as he posed with Cayden looking at the camera. "You look good" I laughed a little as Danny shook his head posing another way as I tilted my head watching. "Beautiful family" The photographer mumbled taking pictures of Cayden and Danny as Danny had his eyes locked on Cayden admiring him in his hands.

"Okay okay tag me in" I laughed a little as I slowly took Cayden from Danny. "Watch it" Danny mumbled moving my hand up more to support his head as I rolled my eyes. Danny stepped away folding his arms standing being the photographer as I smiled posing with Cayden. "Hold him up a little more" Danny mumbled as I nodded adjusting Cayden in my arms.

"Like this?" I cleared my throat.
"Perfect" The photographer mumbled as Danny nodded looking at the camera then me head to toe.
"That's a good one" Danny smirked leaning over a little towards the photographer looking at the shot on his camera. "I like that one a lot" Danny mumbled pointing a specific shout out raising his eyebrows. "You look great" Danny said to me raising his eyebrows as he clenched down on his jaw chewing on a piece of gum. "Like really great" He said pushing up his sleeves as I blushed a little patting Caydens butt softly.

My moms house

"We might have to switch his formula" I mumbled wiping Caydens mouth with his bib as I exhaled rocking him. "That sometimes happens he could be lactose intolerant" My mom raised her eyebrows as I patted Caydens back gently holding him. "Danny thinks he might be allergic to his power or lotion" I yawned taking a deep breath trying to keep my eyes opened. "All possibilities any baby can have it's not abnormal here give me him" My mom said taking Cayden as I smiled small. "Thanks" I sighed getting comfortable on the couch adjusting the pillow behind my head.

"Your brother needs to get a job" My mom rolled her eyes. "He's been skipping school he's been to court twice this month for truancy" She exhaled burping Cayden. "Why isn't he going to school?" I moved my eyebrows down. "He's a junior is he stupid?" I scoffed rolling my eyes. "I don't know he stays out all hours of the night and sometimes doesn't come home I never know where he is or what he's up to" She exhaled shaking her head. "Maybe Danny can talk to him" I whispered. "No you guys have enough on your plate with Cayden and Danny's busy working" She scoffed walking back and forth.

"How's the boyfriend?" I smiled small curious.
"We're fine despite your brother can be a little disrespectful and embarrassing" She said as I rolled my eyes. "Well maybe he should get his own place" I mumbled. "Yeah picture the day that happens" She said sarcastically as I blinked managing to keep my eyes opened.

How could he be so irresponsible? It's his junior year it's not like he has a bad group of friends or a girlfriend to distract him what could possibly be his problem?

"Hey" Danny said walking in with Taco Bell shutting the door behind him. "Hey dear" My mom said rocking Cayden as I smiled small at Danny walking over setting my food down on the coffee table. "What'd you give up?" He scoffed noticing my mom with Cayden as I laughed a little he shook his head. "I'll take him if you want" He offered to my mom putting his hands out. "It's fine eat" She laughed a little as Danny scoffed sitting down opening his bag of food. "Did you get me extra-" I began saying as Danny cut me off. "Extra mild no tomatoes" He mumbled taking a bite of his burrito as I scoffed smiling taking a bite of mine.

"Well would you look at that" My mom laughed as I rolled my eyes. "If I forget I'll never hear the end of it" Danny licked his lips chewing as I laughed covering my mouth pushing him playfully. "My brothers been skipping school" I mumbled wiping my mouth with a napkin as Danny looked at me then my mom. "Why?" He scoffed looking down at his food opening a mild sauce. "What's he got a girlfriend or something?" Danny asked as I shrugged.

"He's been to court twice" I mentioned as Danny raised his eyebrows in shock shaking his head. "He's tripping that's stupid" He mumbled wiping off his fingers with a napkin sipping his drink, he then passed it to me rolling his eye I laughed a little drinking some. "Want me talk to him?" Danny asked my mom raising a brow. "No you have enough going on" She began ranting about our responsibilities.

"I'll talk to him" Danny scoffed not caring for what she was listing off. "Babe you're sure?" I asked as he nodded sucking sauce off his thumb. "I just wish he'd get a job and help out around here" My mom exhaled as Danny glared at her listening. "I can get him a job if he'll take it serious" He mumbled as my mom rolled her eyes. "Or he can stay with us?" Danny offered as I practically choked on my soda.

"No no no no" I said in my defense.
"Why not? He's your brother" Danny shrugged.
"It's cool with me" Danny mumbled cleaning up his mess.

"No you have Cayden and your mother" My mom began listing off responsibilities again as Danny got up to throw away his trash ignoring her. "He'll be fine" Danny said washing his hands as I glared at my mom. "NO" I mouthed as she laughed a little noticing Cayden was sleep as she slowly and carefully set him down.

The last thing I needed was another person staying with me I had to supervise on top of Danny's Mother. I don't mean to be rude and inconsiderate but it was my family home. Hopefully Ryan can get his shit together and Danny can talk some sense into him before he offers him to live with us.
