As the days rolled by, Harry and I got into routine again.
We were doing everything possible to find out her name, but nothing really clicked.
It was the third day since the birth and I was still recovering.
Currently, I sat cross legged on the bed with the television on, Gemma and Senna were both around, Senna on the floor and Gemma was sitting on the chair in front of the bed.
I told them they could lay down if they wanted but they decided not to since the baby was still so fragile to bacteria and other germs.
She was laying in front of me, asleep with a pacifier in her mouth.
Harry surprisingly had everything for her and that warmed my heart.
Her hair was slowly but surely turning darker everyday. I think she'll have curly brown hair like her dad.
I rubbed her soft cheek gently with my forefinger, the knuckles gently running up and down her soft skin.
I smiled down at her, seeing her slowly waking up.
I waited for her to fully wake up to see if she was going back go sleep, but instead, she flailed her little legs around and let out a cry.
Gemma turned to me in start before she laughed, "She scared me."
I chuckled softly, "She might need a feed soon."
She was laying in my arms, her noises were fading and she laid her head on my chest.
I brought her up to kiss her forehead and she was out again.
The door opened to find Eli with a smiley face.
"Hey, big man." I patted my side for him, "Did you find your legos?"
He nodded, "Yeah, mummy. I need help. I'll ask daddy when he comes home. I'm hungry."
I nodded, "I'll make you something in a second."
He went back to playing with his legos.
Harry popped up on the door and sighed at the sight of his sisters.
"You know the whole point of two houses is so you can let us have our privacy." He rolled his eyes.
"Hey!" I snapped, "I called them over because you've been gone all day working. I need company. I'm still recovering."
He had gotten a job recently, I dont really know what it is but I'm almost sure it's a mafia.
"I'm sorry I need the money." He sassed, "So I apologize if that hurts you."
I rolled my eyes, "I'm sorry guys."
Gemma laughed and shot her brother a dirty look.
"Why are you being like this?"
He rubbed his face tiredly, "I need a nap."
"Harry I need so much stuff done before dinner and I can't do it by myself!" It was almost seven o'clock and I had to feed the baby, put her down for a nap, take a shower and bathe both the children and still cook dinner.
"Well I'm sorry baby I've been out all day, I need to stop running for at least thirty minutes."
I groaned before my eyes filled with tears.
I set the baby down on the bassinet gently before taking a deep breath.
"Fine, Harry, take a nap. Leave me to do all the work, like your housewife." I scowled.
He rubbed his eyes again, "You're crying?"
I dropped my hands down, slapping my thighs, "Yes, Harry I'm crying. I'm crying and I'm a useless piece of shit."
He sat up, "Come here."
I shook my head, wanting him to repeat it.
"Come here, right now please."
I went over to him and stared With a scowl.
"Tell me what's wrong. You never cry over small things."
I sniffled as he pulled me onto his lap, "I'm so tired Harry."
He shushed me softly, "I'm tired too, baby, I'm so tired of waking up at five in the morning to feed the baby and get breakfast done, get Eli up, dressed, fed and all that. I do stuff too baby, I work and help around some. I just started this, it's new for both of us, but I can help around more." He leaned in to kiss my shoulder, "Grab a post it and write what you need done from me and I'll have it done."
"I hate cooking." I whispered, "Can I just not cook?"
He chuckled, "Yes baby, you dont have to cook. Anything else?"
"You're complaining about waking up at five when I have to wake up multiple times."
He chuckled lowly, "You definitely do much more than I do, that's for sure. I've been tired today, and I'm sorry. I'm going through withdrawal, you know."
I sighed as I ran my hand through his hair, "You promised you'd stop. But If you cant, I guess I can't stop you."
He shook his head, "I'm stopping. Can I have my nap? Or is Eli hungry?"
"He's hungry. I'll let you sleep longer today. It's a Saturday tomorrow. And why did you not take Eli to school today. He wouldnt tell me."
"He was tired so I let him be. He's almost four, he doesnt need to be overworking himself too much."
I kissed his temple, "Harry."
"Hm?"
"I love you." I nuzzled into his neck lovingly.
"I love you more, pretty." He kissed my forehead, "How about we all make dinner tonight?"
I got up from his lap, heading over to the bassinet to hold the baby.
"Harry, do you have any names yet?"
He shook his head, "Not yet."
"When? I don't want to keep calling her baby."
"Well, she is one so you're not technically wrong."
I sighed as she made little noises, "Please hurry up?"
He walked over to me, taking the baby gently in his arms, kissing her cheek, "Hi sleepy princess."
I smiled at him, rubbing the baby's back gently.
I moved away to check on Eli, he was sitting in the living room, concentrating on the television with a scowl.
I sat next to him, "What's going on?"
"Mummy they're saying there's something bad coming. A tsunami. They said the bad people from the other planets want to kill us."
I shot Harry a nervous look.
"I'm sure you have nothing to worry about, bub." I turned the tv to another channel, "Come help us with dinner?"
He giggled, "Yes."
He loved making dinner with us. Even though he never ate it after it was done from eating all the leftover ingredients.
Harry had put on a concerned face, he was still holding the baby.
I took her from him, "I'm gonna feed her. I'll be right back."
I sat on the nursery, feeding the baby, seeing her drift off to sleep when she was done.
I put her on her crib and turned on the monitor.
I placed her pacifier between her lips, "Goodnight, honey. Mummy will be right here when you wake up."
I stepped out of the room.
Harry appeared on the hallway, "It's fucking not happening. We were done running away."
I pushed him out to the living room, "We'll talk later."
Harry nodded without much expression on his face.
I swear if we had to leave I'd break something.
