Chapter 23 - Motherly Talk

Ariana's Pov

I walk down stairs after putting Belle to sleep and sit with my Mom.

"So how have you been?" Mom asks me.

"I've been great!" I reply.

"That's good, so Belle hasn't been a problem?" she asks.

"No way, she's the sweetest child ever. she's an amazing daughter and I'm so glad I've become a mother to her. We've had a few hiccups but it's nothing I can't handle. We've just got to get over her nightmares and her being so clingy. But it's great" I reply.

"Her nightmares are from her past and her being clingy is showing you that she trusts you and wants to be with you. She'll get herself out of it evenually. For the meantime all you can do is be there for her and keep her as happy as possible" Mom says.

"Mommy" Belle cries out. Belle starts to cry harder and I ran up to her room.

"Shhh baby mommy's here" I say sitting on the side of her bed and pulling her onto my lap. I rub her back and let her sit there and cry.

The crying soon stops and she's sitting there in my lap. I look down expecting her to be asleep and she's sitting there holding onto my shirt with her little hand looking around. I pick her up and put her one my hip. I walk downstairs back to Mom.

Mom walks towards us and puts her arms out motioning that she wants to hold Belle. Belle looks at me with a worried face.

"It's okay" I whispered in her ear.

She goes into mom's arms and sits on Mom's hip. I walk to the kitchen and starts to make dinner. Mom had to walk with me otherwise Belle will start to cry and start calling me.

I make a pasta dish and set three plates on the table. I put some on Belle's plate and some on my plate while Mom does her own. I pull Belle's chair out making it easier for her to climb up. She pushes the chair closer to mine then sits down. Mom giggles at her, and starts to eat.

Once we had finished I put Belle in front of the TV and put on a kids show.

I sit down in the next room with Mom.

"I can see what you mean now, by her being clingy" Mom says.

"Yeah I know, but it's cute" I reply.

"Very cute" Mom agrees.

I walk into the lounge room with Mom following. I pick Belle up and we say our goodbyes to Mom. I buckle Belle into her car seat and set off to drive home.

I pull up at home and say hello to all the boys, and return the keys to scooter. I take Belle up to our room and change her into her onsie. I dress into my matching onsie and we go to say goodnight to everybody. I take a selfie of Belle and I and post it on Instagram.

@arianagrande my beautiful daughter and I matching in our onsies. 💗💖👶👯💋

We snuggle in bed just the two of us. Belle soon falls asleep in my arms then I fall asleep.
