Struggles (Sequel to Adopted by Fifth Harmony)

Monsters

==Sadie's POV==

Dinah starts moving, but I tighten my grip around her waist.

"Don't go," I mumble into her side.

Dinah laughs and says, "We're going to go down by the pool. Do you want to come, munchkin?"

"Ugh, fine," I groan, opening my eyes. "How long did we sleep?" I ask, rubbing my tired blue eyes.

"Only about three hours," Dinah says. I groan and sit up.

"Can I use one of your long shirts to put over my suit?" I ask, giving her the puppy dog eyes.

"Ugh, fine you little stinker," Dinah groans, giving into my look. I laugh and she tosses me a rugby jersey. I get up and find my bikini in my suitcase and head to the bathroom to change. I get changed and look into the mirror. I have bags under my eyes from not enough sleep. Nightmares have started reappearing. I frown at the memory of my newest one. These new nightmares have a monster chasing me. It always get close to me, but never catches me. I always wake up. I don't want to know what happens if it ever catches me. I quickly put my hair into a bun and unlock the bathroom door.

"You ready?" Dinah calls from the bed.

"Yeah, let's roll, D Mac," I shout, grabbing a hotel key I know Camila forgot and that Dinah would never remember to bring. We head out into the hallway and Dinah suddenly sacks me over her shoulder and starts running into the lobby.

"Dinah!" I scream, my face turning red from laughing and being upside down. She puts me down as soon as we get to the doors that lead to the pool. I cross my arms and pout. "That wasn't nice." I say.

"Oh get over it," Dinah laughs, ruffling my hair. I push her hand off my head and stick my tongue at her, quickly running outside to stop her from grabbing me again. I laugh at Dinah over my shoulder and run to Lauren who is chilling on a pool chair.

"Whatcha readin'?" I ask curiously, gesturing to the book in her hands.

"50 Shades of Grey, again. I love this book," Lauren says, wrinkling her nose.

"Ooo, can I read it?" I ask.

"Not till you're older, baby," Lauren laughs, rubbing my arm.

"Okay," I say, perfectly happy with that answer. I walk to Ally, who's chilling at the table under a big umbrella.

"Hey, mommy," I say, hugging her from behind and giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey, baby, how are you?" She asks, shifting in her seat. She takes my hands and looks into my eyes.

"I'm so tired," I sigh.

"Me too," Ally laughs. "C'mere," she says, opening her arms. I smile and climb into her lap, resting my head against her chest.

"I love you, mommy," I say.

"I love you," Ally says, tapping my nose. She gives me a kiss on my head and I close my eyes. I listen to Ally's heartbeat and the sound of the Brazilian waves. I smile into her chest and sigh in relief.

"You two are honestly the cutest things ever," Normani says, pulling a chair back to sit with us.

"Love you, Mani," I laugh. scrunching my nose.

"I love you too," She laughs.

"I'm going to put my feet in the pool," I say, looking up at Ally. "Please make sure Dinah doesn't sneak up on me."

Ally laughs and unhooks her arms from around my waist. "No promises, baby," she says grinning.

"Well thanks," I laugh. I hop off her lap and head to the deep end. I sit down and put my legs into the cool water. I close my eyes and sigh. This was a perfect day to chill. I hear someone swim to me and I open my eyes.
