CHAPTER 21.

Kylie Flack let out a grumble at the sound of her 6-month old daughter crying on the other end of the baby monitor. Adam was working the night shift for Mac this week, and she was stuck waking up with the baby. Whenever one of them got stuck on the night shift the other was stuck staying awake for almost a full 24 hours.

"I'm coming," Kylie mumbled, sitting up from the bed, and heading towards the nursery. Though she wasn't sleeping all the way through the night, she was sleeping 5 hours now, which was two more hours Kylie had as well. "Hello, angel," Kylie smiled, watching her daughter try to pull herself up. She wasn't quite strong enough to sit up by herself yet.

Kylie picked Gabriella up, and pressed a kiss to her head. "Are you hungry?" Kylie asked. "Or did you just go poop?" She lifted Gaby's butt to her face, and took a whiff, and was thankful that the baby hadn't pooped. "Hungry it is," Kylie nodded her head, heading for the kitchen to make a bottle.

"Too bad Daddy isn't home yet," she said, talking to Gaby to try and soothe her crying. "He loves playing peek-a-boo with you. I know you do too," Kylie giggled, as she put a bottle into the microwave. "Alright," Kylie whispered, kissing Gaby's head again. "Time to eat."

Gaby immediately stopped crying at the sight of her bottle, and went to reach for it, causing Kylie to giggle. Her daughter definitely took after Adam in the hunger department. They were both always eating, or sleeping or pooping.

Kylie headed back into Gaby's nursery to rock her as she fed her, Oscar following her, his tail wagging as he lie by Kylie's feet. "Better?" Kylie asked when she finished burping Gaby. She heard the apartment door open, and Adam stumble into the dark apartment as quietly as he could, though he was failing. She listened as he made his way into their bedroom, and after he changed, he came into the nursery.

"Hey," he smiled.

"Morning," Kylie cheered, standing up. "You just missed her," she informed him, putting Gaby in her crib.

"Well, at least I didn't miss you," he smiled, kissing her cheek.

"Ehh," Kylie grumbled when Adam slid his hand down the back of her pants. "I got to be up for work in three hours."

Adam let out a sigh, and pulled away from Kylie. "Come on, cut me some slack, here."

"Adam," Kylie sighed, heading towards the door. "I'm tired, I smell like baby diapers, I haven't showered, my hair is dirty."

"So?" Adam sighed, "We can do it in the shower."

"Ehw," Kylie shook her head, walking down the hall to their bedroom.

"Babe we haven't done it forever."

"Adam," Kylie sighed, rolling her eyes. "We haven't been on the same schedule to even think about having sex. And when we do see each other, one of us is always covered in baby spit up. We will. Baby, I promise. I promise the second we have the same day off, I'll ask my mom to watch the baby." Kylie wrapped her arms around Adam's neck. "I'd kiss you but I haven't brushed my teeth."

"It's fine," Adam sighed, kissing Kylie's forehead.

"We good?" Kylie asked.

"We're good," he nodded his head.

"Besides, I was gonna ask my mom to watch Gaby so we could go house hunting. The whole weekend. Just you and me."

"Alright," Adam nodded his head, a grin on his face.

"Okay," Kylie smiled. "I'm gonna go to bed. I'll take Gaby to my mom's and you can pick her up when you wake up. But I told her no later than 1, so please be up before then."

"I will be up before 1," Adam promised. "Go to bed."

"Okay," Kylie yawned, crawling into bed. "Good night, baby," she mumbled, before closing her eyes to fall asleep.

Adam sat at the park bench, and unhooked Oscar's leash, before pulling Gaby out of her stroller. He set a blanket on the grass and then set her on her belly, while Oscar twirled in circles around the blanket. Adam grabbed the tennis ball he had packed and threw it for Oscar, before lying on the blanket with his daughter.

"Hello Gabriella," he smiled, kissing her nose. He loved spending time with his daughter, there wasn't anything better. Besides spending time with his fiancé and his daughter at the same time. He lied on his back, and set Gaby on his stomach. Gaby grabbed at his ears as she giggled.

Oscar came back, and plopped his ball besides Adam, who threw the ball again, but not as far since he was on his back, and then turned at Gaby. He gave her a funny face causing her to open her mouth, and let out a screech of joy, her hands shaking.

"Oh, Brielle," Adam laughed, watching his daughter laugh. Though she was just a baby and she couldn't control her emotions, she was still adorable when she screeched like that. And it was even cuter that she didn't have teeth.

Adam sat up, and set Gaby in his lap. "Do you want to go on the swings?" he asked, standing up. "I think you'll like them Brielle." He threw the ball again for Oscar, and then headed towards the swing set just a few feet away, and set Gaby in the infant seat. He slowly began to push her, and smiled when she started to shriek again. He could watch her try and laugh all day.

Kylie closed the door to the apartment, and smiled at the sight of Adam throwing Gaby in the air. "Hey," she smiled, setting her keys on the table in the foyer, and kicking off her shoes. "How was your day?" she headed into the living room, and gave Adam a kiss, and then took Gaby from his arms. "Hey baby girl," she smiled, kissing Gaby. She pressed Gaby's head under her nose. "Oh you smell like baby soap."

"That's because I bathed my baby girl," Adam replied, turning the TV off. "And I cooked dinner for us."

"Oh," Kylie asked, raising an eyebrow at her fiancé. "You did?"

"Well," Adam shrugged. "I heated up frozen chicken nuggets, and some french fries.

"Oh baby," Kylie giggled, giving Adam a kiss. "You're such a good fiancé."

"Shut up," Adam said. "At least I made something."

"Yeah," Kylie said, sitting down on the couch. "Did you feed her?"

"I did," Adam rolled his eyes. "I fed her, I bathed her, changed her poopy diapers. Face it sweet pea, I am an awesome father."

"Whatever," Kylie rolled her eyes. "What did you guys do today?"

"Went to the park. Played fetch with Oscar, swung on the swings. Played Call of Duty, and Rock band."

"Very cool," Kylie nodded her head, bouncing Gaby up and down.

"Bri just ate," Adam started. "She's gonna puke."

"Bri?"

"That's her nickname for her Daddy. Brielle."

"Gotchya," Kylie giggled, kissing Gaby's cheek. She stood up to get dinner from the kitchen. "Well, Daddy. You did a good job with her all by yourself. So good, that tomorrow I won't even take her to Grandma's before I leave for work."

"Oh, thank you," Adam smirked. "Yay, now I can wake up at 6 after going to bed at 4. Awesome."

"Don't be silly," Kylie laughed. "I leave at 7:15."

"A whole hour and 1 minutes extra," Adam rolled his eyes.

"I can wake you up at 6 if you'd like."

"I'm good."

"That's what I thought," Kylie giggled, fixing herself a plate of nuggets and fries. "Delicious," Kylie said, biting into her food. "Best dinner ever baby."

"Thank you," Adam smiled.

Kylie came back into the living room and kissed Adam. "Thank you," she smiled. "For cooking me dinner so I didn't have to."

"You are welcome," Adam smiled, stealing a fry.

"Hey!" Kylie squeaked, pulling her plate away from Adam. "Get your own," she giggled when Adam tried to tickle her, but she put her plate down and used Gaby as a shield.

"I'm going to get you," Adam warned her. "Tonight."

"Too bad you have work tonight," Kylie laughed, picking Gaby up and heading for the kitchen again to Mac Adam a plate.

"Yeah, yeah," Adam groaned. "Don't remind me."

"You have to work tonight," Kylie sang. "Daddy's got the graveyard shift. Adam's got to work tonight! Doo-dah!"

"I warned you," Adam said, standing up from the couch. He pulled Gaby from Kylie's arms and set her in her high chair, and then started chasing Kylie around the apartment.

"Adam!" she shrieked, when he grabbed hold of her back pocket, and pulled her onto the couch.

"Say Uncle," Adam laughed, tickling her ribs, as she tried to collect enough air.

"Never," she managed to breathe, managing to elbow him to get him to let go.

Adam stood up and chased Kylie into their bedroom, where he managed to pull her out, and back onto the couch, Kylie kicking and laughing as she went. "Adam!" she laughed again when he pressed a kiss to her chest. "Gaby's right there," she said, squirming away from him.

"Fine," Adam laughed. "It's her bed time anyway, isn't it?"

"Yeah," Kylie laughed, still trying to catch her breath.

Adam nodded his head and pulled Gaby from her high chair, heading down the hall, Kylie following. She pulled her pajamas from the night stand and watched as Adam changed their daughter before rocking her to sleep and setting her in her crib.

"Can we get back to where we were?" Adam asked, wrapping his arms around Kylie's waist.

"Yes," Kylie giggled, her necks snaking around Adam's neck. She pulled her legs around his waist, and he carried her out of the nursery and into their own bedroom. He had a few hours before he needs to be at work.
