Scarlett

14 - Carson

Carson's POV:

12 Months Later:

She was a gorgeous, tiny little thing, she fit in my arms perfectly, her head covered in thick black hair - her big blue eyes struggling to stay open as I rocked her in my arms, she truly was a beautiful little girl.

"You two going ok in here?"

I turned towards Scarlett, she was leaning against the door frame, smiling at the two of us - the love and adoration on her face was clear,

"Yeah, we are doing ok baby, she was just being stubborn like her mother"

"Hmmm, is that so?"

Pushing herself off the door frame she closed the distance between us, she lifted the sleeping baby from my arms and placed her in the cot though not before kissing her forehead. Once she was down she made her way over to me and wrapped her arms around my neck, pulling me down to her level

"I think she just has her Daddy wrapped around her little finger is all"

"Well I don't doubt that, but can you blame me?"

"Nope, actually I kind of cannot wait until our daughter is old enough to start bringing boys home just so I can watch you squirm"

"The only squirming you will see when it comes to my daughter wife, is the squirming of any boy that comes near her when they are older - right before they run right back where they came from"

She chuckled at me before placing a kiss on my lips,

"You coming to bed Cage?"

"Yeah, just let me kiss the princess and check on Loges and I'll be up"

"Ok" she nodded, kissing me again. I leant over the cot, placing a kiss on the forehead of the 4 month old little girl sleeping in the cot,

"Sweet dreams little Mya, Daddies little princess"

Flashback:

The past few months by no means had been easy, firstly there was that bullshit with the hospital doctor that took Scarletts blood test results confirming she was pregnant.
The bastard knew she was the wife of Carson Cage and leaked the information to the media for a nice financial gain and next thing we were once again front page news. I flipped when I saw the paper - jumped on a plane and showed up in my wife's office demanding answers and she collapsed in my arms - that's when I found out the full story - Scarlett was pregnant - Jackson was the father but no one knew that not even Jackson and he had disappeared, gone completely out of her life. Everyone had assumed it was my baby - why wouldn't they - we were still husband and wife.

I looked down at the small bundle in my arms - she was so tiny barely tipping the scales at 7 pounds, her eyes were scrunched up slightly, her fists clenched tightly as she slept. She was going to be trouble - I just knew it - 26 hours she had her mother in labor for, no one was rushing this little girl, she was doing it on her own time, at her own pace.

"Cage, is she doing ok?" Lettie's soft, tired voice came from the hospital bed,

"She's perfect baby, just like her mummy"

"Did you think of a name yet?"

"Yeah actually I did - what do you think of Mya, Mya Rose"

"I love it Carson, it's perfect" Scarlett looked at me - biting her bottom lip

"Lettie, what's going on?"

"I was just wondering Cage, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Unless you've changed your mind baby there ain't a doubt in mine, you already know where my heads at"
