"Alright. Thanks for trying for me baby."

"Sure thing."

We took a nice walk around the city, stopping to talk to a couple fans every once in a while. Once we got back to our flat, Niall started making phone calls, probably to get a babysitter for tonight.

"Found us a babysitter."

"Ok." I sighed

"We can do this."

"Ok. Who did you find?" I asked him

"Charolette."

"Good choice."

"Yep. She'll be here at 7. Elaine will be asleep by then, so she should stay asleep while we're out."

"Smartass." We both laughed a bit. I pulled out my phone to check the time. "Jesus, it's already 5."

"Christ, we'd better start getting ready then. I already made dinner reservations earlier today, so we're good on that."

"Ok. Imma hop in the shower, I'll be out in a bit." I said giving Niall a peck on the lips

"Ok baby."

I hopped in the shower and washed my hair and skin. I let the water run over my tense muscles for a couple of minutes. I turned off the heat to the shower and hopped out. I wrapped a towel around my body and went to pick out and outfit for our date. I picked out a short red dress. I took it off the hanger and headed back to the bathroom to change. I walked back to the room Niall and Elaine were in, deciding to let my hair air dry.

"Hi baby girl." I said to Elaine, making her smile. God, her smile was so cute, I swear. It was just like Niall's, they both smiled with their entire face, not just lips.

"Alright, I'm off to take a shower."

"Ok babe." Just as Niall started walking to the bathroom, I heard a small giggle come from Elaine. "Wait! Niall! Come back!" I yelled. Niall came running, he always did that when I called him.

"What is it?"

"She laughed!"

"What?! And I missed it?!" He sat by me on the couch.

"Come on Elaine. Laugh for me baby." I said

"Laugh for daddy baby girl."

"Daddy's gonna cry, don't make daddy cry."

"Daddy wants to hear baby laugh."

"Laugh for daddy baby girl." I said. Niall started fake crying. He pretended to wipe his eyes. Then I heard it again. Elaine laughed again.

"She laughed! She laughed! Oh my god, I didn't think she could get any cuter!" Niall exclaimed. This only made her laugh more. God, her laugh was so cute.

"Niall."

"Hmm?"

"When are we going to show her to the world? If we don't soon, then people will see her when I get back to working again."

"Good point. Let's take a picture now while she's smiling and post it on Twitter." Niall snapped a picture and mentioned me in the tweet. There were 4 pictures, 3 from the day she was born and the 4th was the one he just took. One was me holding Elaine, Niall holding Elaine, and Elaine sleeping peacefully in her pink bundle from the hospital.

"There. Now I really need to shower, we only have an hour left." He said and then kissed me. I put Elaine in her crib so she could sleep for Charolette. She always fell asleep if you left her alone in her crib for a couple minutes. I went to curl my hair and put makeup on.

"You know, you really don't need that shit." Niall said coming out of the shower, referring to my makeup.

"Well I use it, and yea I do."

"No you don't. Never have, never will."

"Uh huh. Whatever you say babe." There was a knock at the door, I finished my makeup, so I went to open the door. It was Charolette, as anticipated.

"There's a bottle on the counter if she wakes up, and call me if you need anything." I quickly said before Niall pushed me out the door.

"Baby, it'll be ok, stop stressing." Niall said

"I know, I know."

We had an amazing dinner and crashed from exhaustion as soon as we got home. I'm just glad our baby girl was ok.
