Hey guys!
I know you probably REALLY hate me for not updating in so long, but here's the next chap anyways:
Cammie's POV:
4 months later:
Zach stepped into our room in his boxers and a white tee, brown locks sticking up at all angles.
"Well, she's finally down again," he said, sitting on the bed next to me.
"I'm glad," I commented wryly, leaning over to touch my lips to his gently.
"So am I," he murmured, then kissing me back intensely.
I knotted my fingers in his hair, pressing myself to him.
A high-pitched cry came from the baby monitor.
"Ignore it," Zach muttered, lips brushing mine.
The shrieking escalated.
"So much for our romanitc evening."
"I'll get it," I conceeded, hopping out of bed and padding down the hall towards Avery's nursery.
Carefully, I leant over the cot and scooped the bawling baby into my thin arms, then cradling her over my shoulder.
Humming soothingly, I eased my hand over her merino-clad back in soft circles. Soon her cries ceased. Knowing that the second I put her down, she would immediately start screaming again, I started towards our room.
Upon entering, I noticed there were two in the bed. Riley's small, sleeping form was draped over Zach. In one hand she clutched her favourite lion soft toy.
"Nightmares." He mouthed.
Slowly, I slid in beside him, turning Avery so that she was resting against my chest. Her jade green eyes were peaceful, as she cooed lightly to herself.
"The one where the scary witch steals all her cake?" I enquired with a whisper.
He nodded.
I smoothed a hand over the fontanelles on Avery's head as she drifted off to dreamland.
A few minutes passed as we watched our daughters sleep.
"Do you think we should?..."
"Yep."
After returning our charges to their beds, we soon were sat in our own.
"Now," Zach said with a smile. "Where were we?"
Please, please review?
I promise I'll update by the end of the week. Next chap: Riley's b'day party. :P
Thx.
Peace!
