Chester's POV

Seeing Grace be maternal is the best thing ever. Coming after a day of recording, I'm excited to see my girls. I'm about to knock on the open door to Sophie's nursery, but I see Grace is half asleep in the rocking chair with an asleep Sophie on her lap. I carefully take Sophie from Grace's arms and place her in the crib. Not ten seconds after Sophie leaves Grace's arms, she is wide awake.

"Where's Sophie?" She asks immediately.

"I put her in the crib." I tell her.

"Okay." Grace says.

Grace looks really tired. Still beautiful, but worn out. Dark circles are prominent under her warm brown eyes. I go to her side, pulling her into a tight embrace. She melts against me, and I kiss her forehead.

"You seem tired baby, get some sleep." I suggest.

Grace always insists on being the one to get Sophie when she cries. A lot of the time I follow her, but she'll never let me go and just get some sleep. I know she's worried about Sophie.

"But if Sophie cries.." She begins.

"If Sophie wakes up, I'll take care of her. You're sleep deprived sweetie, you need rest." I remind her.

"Alright." Grace relents, giving me a kiss.

I take her to our bedroom, watching her climb into the bed. I sing Lullaby softly under my breath as she drifts off. I go back to Sophie's room, sitting down in the chair in the corner. Sophie is asleep peacefully, so I decide to take a picture. I decide to post it on Instagram, since I didn't ever really announce her at all to my subscribers.

"my beautiful baby girl #blessed"

I tag Grace as well, knowing she'll see it when she wakes. I smile, thinking of Grace and Sophie. They're my two favorite people.
