AUTHORS NOTE: Hi! I hope you all are enjoying the story. This is the baby. Thanks for reading! Love you all, ❤️Bailey❤️

Bailey stays up with the baby, and she keeps me up, too.

Her soft voice hums to the small human, and I fall asleep on the couch.

When I wake up, the baby is sleeping in Bailey's arms, and I gently pick her up.

Her eyes flutter open, and bright blue radiates up at me.

"Hi beautiful." I whisper.

She smiles, her hands moving up and down.

"Let's go to the store and get you some things."

I put her in the back seat, in a extra baby seat that Bailey had stored from her childhood.

I pull into Walmart, and load up on clothes, socks, food and some diapers.

I lift her out of the back end, and walk us back into the warm apartment.

Bailey is awake, sitting at the table with a cup of water in her hands.

"Hey Bailey. We went to Walmart for some supplies."

She opens the sacks, and smiles at the things I got for the infant.

"You are so amazing at this already! Will you feed her?" Bailey asks me.

"Oh, uh, sure."

"Beatrice." I hear her say.

"What?"

"Her name is Beatrice. That's what it said on the note."

I look down at her, her black hair and blue eyes.

"Beatrice?"

Beatrice smiles, and I laugh.

"She's beautiful, Bailey. Just like you."

Bailey's cheeks redden, and she stands to kiss me on the cheek.

She trots off to the shower, so it's up to be to feed Beatrice.

I sit her in the high chair, and warm up some formula.

"Alright babe, you ready?"

She drinks the whole bottle, and smiles up at me.

Soon after, I fall asleep with Beatrice in my arms, snoring softly on my chest.
