Abandoned Baby
Chapter 61
That afternoon after giving Catherine her bath, Drew was in the den with Catherine lying on his chest with the baby blanket covering her while he was patting her back gently to get her to take a nap.
"Sweetie, aren't you tired yet lass?"Her daddy asked her.
"Da..."She cooed quietly against his shoulder.
"Here's your bottle baby."Bless said giving the bottle to Drew to feed her hoping Catherine would take her afternoon nap since usually she needed a nap because she was cranky when she didn't sleep.
"Ma..."Catherine spoke when she seen her mother.
"Mama's here baby."Bless smiled kissing her daughter's cheek as Drew switched Catherine in a lying position in his arms in able to feed her while wrapping her in her baby blanket.
"Here you go hon."The Scot said giving Cat her bottle as she accepted it and wrapped her tiny fingers around his as he smiled.
"Good girl."He said to her rubbing her head gently.
The boys returned after training downstairs and showered in their rooms and came to the den to see the happy little family had the tv on but had the volume softly on as they were watching tv and now trying to put the little one for her nap so they had it on low not to disturb Catherine once she slept.
"Da..."Catherine said again around her bottle.
"Woah...was that Catherine?"Heath was surprised to hear the little squeak of her tiny voice.
"No way...did she just say?"...Stu hoped he heard right as well as PJ who nodded in amazement looking at the Scot.
"Yup a while ago."Drew laughed as his mates were a little taken back the little angel spoke.
"Hon, drink your bottle that way that way dada and mama can put you down for your nap."Drew softly spoke to his daughter as he helped aid Catherine in holding her bottle to drink it.
"Wow...seems like little angel said her first words...that's a first."The Brit was amazed at his niece's first words.
"It surprised Bless and myself but it's a start."The Scot said relaxing as the boys sat in front of him to watch father and daughter interact including with Bless that was behind them doting over her daughter quietly.
"Sooner than you know it she's going to become a little chatterbox."The South African chuckled.
"You know it."Drew was right when he agreed with his South African friend.
"So how did you boys do earlier?"The Scot asked his friends about their prematch rituals.
"We did well and did maybe a few hours of practices and such and didn't do too shabby."Heath said from his place on the floor.
"Da..."Catherine babbled as he took the bottle out of her mouth and put the bottle that way half way done on the table since she didn't want to drink anymore.
"I know sweetums."Drew said patting the baby on her stomach and head laying on his shoulder.
"Here's her spit rag babe."Bless said giving the little cloth to her boyfriend as he smiled and kissed her as he placed it on his shoulder as he started patting her back gently.
"Ma..."Catherine spoke up.
"Do you want your binky before you sleep sweetie?"Bless asked her daughter stroking her daughter's hair back gently.
After Drew burped the baby, he saw she spit up a little as he wiped her mouth with the little cloth before Bless got it from him to wash it out while she was gonna get Catherine's pacifier in the diaper bag to give to Catherine.
"Ma..."The little girl said whining a bit.
"Here's your binky honey."The young mother said with a smile as Catherine accepted it and suckled on it gently.
As soon as the little girl started getting sleepy, she buried her little face into her father's hair and clutched onto him with her little fingers.
"It's okay dumplin'...dada's here."The Scot spoke softly to her as he patted her back gently.
As soon as the baby was out like a light, Drew smiled and kissed her cheek.
"Stu,since the playpen is close to you, can you lie the little angel down?"Drew asked his best friend passing the 10 month old to his best bud.
"Sure."The Brit didn't mind at all helping his friend out as he gathered the itty bitty little girl in his huge arms from Drew's arms to help lay the sweet sleeping angel down in her playpen laying her sideways and giving her a stuffed toy to snuggle with before Drew walked over and covered her up with the baby blanket.
"Good night little angel."Drew softly said to his daughter kissing her head and caressing her tiny cheek with his finger.
"Good night my little angel."Bless replied to her daughter kneeling down by the playpen stroking her daughter's hair gently.
"We did a good job with her and she fell asleep right away."The young mom said looking up at her tall boyfriend as she got up to wrap her arms against his side as they watched their daughter sleep.
"We sure did mommy."The WWE Superstar agreed bending down to kiss his girlfriend softly.
"Soon we'll be doing the same once again when our baby gets here."She said as she looked down at her still flat 3 week stomach.
"Our baby."He proudly smiled as he reached down to caress his girl's stomach.
"I'm sure you two are excited as we are about this."PJ noticed how in love and happy they were about the second baby.
"We sure are. We're gonna look forward to this journey together as a family."Bless was so sure that she wanted this baby more than anything in this world and she couldn't ask for anything more.
""Are you two going to find out the sex of the little one in a couple of months?"The one man rock band asked them.
"Nope. It'll be a surprise."Drew said as he held Bless close to him.
"Good to keep a surprise and might as well wait to see if it'll be a boy or girl."Stu was equally happy for his best friend and seemed like everything was going to be okay with them now that they had this baby and nothing would stop them from having him or her after her first miscarriage.
"I think I'm gonna have a snack and take my vitamins."Bless said feeling hungry for something before taking her meds.
"Okay sweetie."Drew didn't mind as he let her go as she went off to the kitchen to find something like crackers that she could keep down for the mean time.
"She eats so little nowadays it seems like."The Brit took notice Bless never ate a lot during the first trimester of her pregnancy as he watched her leave Drew's arms.
"She'll be fine man. Bless is like that now that she's pregnant plus I'm sure she would want to keep the morning sickness down to a minimum and she doesn't want to feel sick to her stomach once she eats something too heavy that's why I usually keep her meals light enough for her to stomach it."Drew reassured his best friend that Bless was okay and was keeping an eye out on her and making sure she ate well during her pregnancy.
After Bless grabbed her crackers,juice,and vitamins, she returned to the room to sit down and relax for a bit with the guys who were watching tv.
Bless sat with Drew on the couch with her legs resting on his lap and had his hands on top of her legs while she had her pack of crackers on her lap while her eyes were also glued to the tv.
"You're not hungry are you baby?"Drew asked his girlfriend.
"Nope. I'm perfectly fine babe. Not hungry at all."She reassured him with a smile.
"Alright. If you want to eat something just let me know and I'll make you a sandwich."He let her know.
"I will."She nodded in his direction as he smiled at her glowing beauty.
After Bless ate a few crackers, she closed the wrapper and grabbed her juice and vitamins from the table to take her meds.
She moved over a bit an rested her head on Drew's chest as he held her close resting his hand with her's on her little bump. She loved this little moment just spending a quiet afternoon with her favorite men and baby girl in the same room.
"You comfortable babe?"Drew asked his girlfriend softly.
"Mmmmhmmm."She mumbled sleepily cuddling him as he placed a blanket on them while watching the tv.
"Good."He smiled as he pecked her lips.
"You're beard tickles."She giggled a little feeling his stubble.
"I may just have to shave that off huh?"He chuckled when she mentioned that.
"No...you don't have too babe. I love it on you. It makes you look more sexy."She told him honestly as she clasped her hands with his.
"Thank you lass. That's sweet of you to say. Now try and rest okay."Drew loved how thoughtful his girlfriend was as he began to stroke her hair gently.
"Okay."She smiled a tiny smile fighting the sleepiness from her tired eyes.
"Lass, you and the baby need rest. Close your eyes angel."Drew knew how tired his girlfriend was knowing her body clock was changing now due to her pregnancy and she needed a lot of rest for her and the baby to be healthy.
As soon as Bless was asleep, he cuddled her close to him and watched her sleep.
