Abandoned Baby
Chapter 35
The next morning Bless got up when she heard the alarm on her cell phone go off around 7:30AM.
Just as she was getting up, she heard Catherine stirring as well. Hearing the little girl cooing, she got up from bed to go check on her to see the bright eyed little girl was grabbing her bottle she dropped the previous night and drinking it.
"Hey there little girl. Did you sleep good?"Bless asked her daughter softly giving her a good morning kiss on the head.
"I'm sure you did sleep well."Bless smiled putting the little girl on her lap as they sat quietly on the bed spending a quiet moment together.
A few minutes the shrill of Bless' phone was heard in the quiet room. Getting the baby, she put Cat on her hip as she went to get her phone on the table and smiled when she saw it was Drew calling her.
Babygirl: Hello
BadBoyDrew: Good morning my darling. How are you and little one today?
Babygirl: Good Morning to you too babe. I'm doing well thanks for asking babe. Just spending time some alone time with our little girl and giving Catty her bottle.
BadBoyDrew: I miss you two so much. I can't wait to spend time with you in a few days when you come with me to meet mom.
Babygirl: I can't wait either sweetie. I miss you too. Don't worry, this week probably I can get some time off from my busy schedule to see you soon and we can go home before our international tour. I just want to lie in your arms in our bed.
BadBoyDrew: I can't wait to see spend some time with you too my love including our little girl. I miss her. Give her a kiss and hug from me.
Babygirl: You know I will babe. I love you.
BadBoyDrew: I love you too honey.
After the couple talked for a few minutes, Bless gave their daughter a kiss on the head and hugged her close with a small smile.
Bless got dressed then got Catherine ready for the day to go have breakfast with Stephen that morning.
She grabbed her purse and keycard leaving the room to make her way to the elevator when she bumped into Justin and Heath who were already going down as well.
"Morning boys."She greeted her best friends.
"Morning."The Capetown Werewolf greeted her with a still sleepy smile.
"Good Morning sweetie. Good Morning lil' one."Heath too greeted them still in a sleepy tone after they just got up and decided to get up early to jog around the hotel before going back up to go back to bed before taking on the day.
"You two still look tired."She said as they both had sleepy looks to them.
"We're just going for a quick run then head back to bed."Heath said covering his mouth with a small yawn.
"My poor boys. At least we'll get some rest when we head home in a few days."She told them.
"Home..."Justin smiled relieved at that word.
"I can't wait to sleep in my own bed."The Southern man agreed to that when they would be traveling back to the apartment in 3 days.
"I can't wait to go home either."Bless agreed with her two best buds as they made their way to the elevator.
As they got off, she waved her favorite two men off who were gonna go for a run while she met up with Stephen down in the hotel lobby.
"Good Morning sweetheart."Stephen greeted the young woman with a sweet smile and kissed her cheek.
"Good Morning Ste."Bless greeted the Irish man with a sweet smile.
"Little one must be tired huh?"The tired and sore wrestler asked her about the baby as Catherine's head was on Bless' shoulder.
"Yup. Pretty much I'm a little haggard too but got to be up early and the boys Heath and Justin too looked pretty tired themselves when they got down to go out."Bless said with a small tired smile from running around so much and taking care of her and Drew's daughter at the same time as she put Catherine in her carrier.
"So when do you and the guys go home?"The Irish man inquired.
"3 days so hopefully we'll be able to get some rest before going out for the international tour."Bless said taking a seat across from the Irish man.
"You'll be needing the rest I can agree. Don't worry sweetie."Ste told her with a soft smile.
The two ordered what they wanted to eat and waited their food as they made small talk with one another.
"So...what are your plans after breakfast?"Stephen asked his friend.
"Probably head back up to the room and try to get some sleep. I'm still really tired and haven't had much chance to sleep much."The young PA told him with a small smile.
"Good thing to do since you could really use the sleep lass. You've been running around working the past few days and deserve the well needed rest before we leave the following day after Madison Square Garden."Stephen knew and could tell how tired Bless had been and she looked like she could use another few hours of some sleep plus she had been working too hard during the PPV and she looked pretty drained from all the work despite her best efforts to make sure everything went smoothly as possible.
Stephen had to really admire Bless. She was such a hard a compassionate worker but some of her work had taken a toll on her plus taking care of a baby at the same time looked like it was not an easy task but for her, she made it look so easy.
After they ate in comfortable silence and made small talk, Bless thanked the Irish man for breakfast as he helped her get Catherine placing the little girl in his left arm and supported Bless wrapping his right arm around her right side as he ushered her back upstairs hopefully to just make it safe and sound.
Bless smiled sweetly at Stephen. He was such a good friend to look out for her and the baby and she adored that about him.
"Get some sleep alright love. Take it easy today."Stephen told her as he hugged her close.
"I'll try..."The young woman said to him with a smile.
"Thank you for breakfast today. I really appreciate you being here for me and Catherine."Bless said to Stephen and it really meant a lot to her that he came and spent the day with her and Catherine.
"It's no problem my dear . Any time you and the little one want to come and hang out with me, don't be afraid to ask."He said with a friendly warm smile.
"You know it. Again thank you Ste."Bless thanked him as she reached up to hug the tall man and kissed his cheek.
"Again my dear, you're welcome. Now get inside and get some rest."He joked as she nodded getting her keycard from her pocket and slid it through the door as he watched her go inside before leaving just to make sure she got in okay.
As soon as she got inside the room, she quickly changed Catherine back into her pj's before laying the little one into her playpen.
"Good night sweetie. Mommy loves you."The raven haired mom softly spoke to her daughter leaning over to give her daughter a kiss on the forehead before covering up the sleeping infant with her baby blanket.
Making sure the baby was asleep, she smiled as she heard the soft breaths of the cute little angel before standing up to go to her luggage to get a pair of pj's to change into.
Walking into the bathroom, she quickly changed and yawned tiredly walking out to the room putting her clothes away before crawling into the comfort of her bed to get some peaceful sleep.
