I'm a terrible person I know! Been so long since my last update but life is busy! I was hoping to get this out sooner but I have had my 2nd Covid jab and I've been slightly under the weather with it.

Grammar police. Please go away and refrain from commenting on this chapter. I don't care. Mistakes happen. Live with it.

Enjoy the Lily-Rose fix

Looking at his sleeping girlfriend next to him, Christian looked to the clock. 1 a.m. As his phone lit up, he picked it up and saw the message before gently and quietly getting out of bed, being careful not to wake Ana. Putting on his pyjama pants he then headed out of the bedroom and to his office where Taylor was waiting for him. "Well?"

"Fucker is stubborn." Taylor grumbled shaking his head. "Claims he had no idea what we were talking about. Though he couldn't look Luke in the eye."

"Guilt?" Christian asked.

"Oh yes. He might have been denying it until the cows come home but he also went bright red when we kept bringing it up. Like he was embarrassed he'd been caught doing the dirty."

"Where is he now?"

"Where we left him. Ryan and Reynolds are watching him until the morning. Luke wanted to get home and I wanted to update you as soon as I could."

"How did he know they were here?" Christian asked with a frown. "Luke said he was spotted outside of Seattle so he clearly was coming here."

"That we don't have the answer to yet but we will." Taylor told him confidently. "But Luke and I will get it out of him if it's the last thing we do. Luke is hell bent on getting answers from him and I don't blame him."

Christian gave a nod. "Good work. Thank you, Taylor."

"Are you going to tell her?" Taylor asked curiously.

"Not yet."

Taylor raised an eyebrow looking to him. "Is that wise boss?" He asked softly.

"I don't want her worrying." Christian told him with a sigh before his head shot up hearing the pad of walking in the main room. Fearing Ana had heard them talking, Christian then headed out before he then relaxed slightly seeing it was Lily-Rose, hugging her unicorn tightly and looking lost. "Baby…" Christian called over to her as he made his way over to her before picking her up. "It's late, what are you doing walking around?"

Snuggling into her father, Lily-Rose let her eyes fall to a close. "I missed you daddy." She replied sleepily.

Christian couldn't help but smile as he pressed a soft kiss to her head before he then looked to Taylor and gave a nod to indicate they would finish this conversation in the morning. Waiting for Taylor to leave he then kissed Lily-Rose's head. "Let's get you back to bed."

"No." She pouted clinging onto him tightly. "I wants to sleep with yous and mommy." She grumbled, a yawn passing her little lips.

"But you're a big girl now. You need to be in your bed."

"No." She whimpered. "Pwease daddy." She pleaded clinging onto him tightly.

With a small sigh he gave in. "Okay." He whispered. "But just for tonight and we mustn't wake mommy."

"Otays daddy."

Holding onto his daughter tightly, Christian made his way back to his room. Quietly going in, he closed the door behind him before going over to the bed and gently getting in. Putting an already sleeping Lily-Rose between him and Ana, he then covered them with the duvet before snuggling down beside her and letting his own eyes fall to a close and drifted off to sleep next to his girls.

Hearing talking beside him, Christian's eyes fluttered open the next morning, a small yawn passed his lips before he looked beside him and saw Ana and Lily-Rose curled up together watching something on Ana's phone.

"Cans I have an outfit like that mommy?" Lily-Rose asked looking up to Ana.

"You wanna be like Moana?"

Lily-Rose grinned and nodded before looking to the screen once more before gasping. "Look! He's big like Taylors but with lots more hair!"

Ana chuckled. "I don't picture Taylor dancing around half dressed singing you're welcome."

"What if I asked him nicely?" She asked with hopeful eyes.

"Well, he might. You'd have to ask him." Ana smiled down to her before she then spotted Christian was awake and watching them. "Hey sleepy head."

"Daddy!" Lily-Rose squealed wriggling away from Ana and diving on her father.

Christian chuckled as he caught his daughter and held her close and kissed her head. "Hey you. We having a lazy morning in bed?" He asked with a smile.

Ana smiled. "Someone wanted to wait for daddy to wake up before we got up for breakfast."

Christian help but smile before he looked down to Lily-Rose who was happily snuggled into him. "How about you and mommy head down to the kitchen to see what Gail is cooking while daddy pops to the bathroom?"

"Otays." She beamed with a grin before scrambling out of the bed and ran out of the bathroom. "Gails! Where are you! I's awake now!" She called through the apartment, her little feet going as fast as they could.

"Careful you don't fall over!" Ana called after her before she looked to Christian. "So…how did we manage to get our little rugrat in our bed?" She mused with a smirk to Christian who was stretching beside her, knowing it was him who had bought her into their bed. Lily-Rose had already ratted him out.

Christian chuckled. "I got up in the night to speak to Taylor and she came out all tired and lost saying she missed me…she pleaded with me to sleep in our bed. So, I caved." He admitted to her.

Ana smirked. "Sucker." She laughed before frowning and looking to him. "Speak to Taylor? Is everything okay?" She asked worried.

Christian nodded. "Just work stuff. Nothing for you to worry about." Getting up he stole a kiss off her. "I'll quickly go to the toilet and I'll meet you in the kitchen."

Kissing him back Ana smiled and nodded. "Okay. Better make sure Lily-Rose isn't demanding Gail to make everything and anything." Shaking her head, she went off to find her daughter, grabbing her dressing gown on the way out and slipping it on. Hearing giggling, she headed into the kitchen where she found Lily-Rose sat on the kitchen counter with Gail beside her, both of them mixing what Ana presumed was pancake batter.

"Mommy!" Lily-Rose beamed. "Gails is showing me hows to make yummy pancakes!"

"She is? Well, aren't you a lucky girl?" She smiled to them both as she made herself a cup of tea.

"I'll do that for you now Ana."

"It's okay you two carry on. I fear if you stop Lily-Rose might end up hangry and I doubt that is something you want to see." She mused with smirk to her daughter.

Lily-Rose scoffed. "I's don't get hangry." She grumbled keeping her eyes on the mixture.

At her daughter's scoff Ana burst out laughing. "Oh! Lily-Rose is sassy this morning." She shook her head and finished making her tea. "Might send you to work with your father if you're in a sassy mood."

"Please don't." Laughed Christian as he came into the kitchen. "I feel I may be out of my depth on that one."

"Oh, you would be." Ana confirmed with a smirk as she took a sip of her tea before looking over to her daughter who was concentrating on what Gail was telling her to do.

"Now Miss Lily-Rose, what shall we put in your pancakes?" Gail asked with a smile to her.

"Urm eithers chocolate chips or nothings and we has bacon." She told her seriously.

"What about half and half?" Ana suggested.

Lily-Rose frowned. "Halfs and halfs? Like when we eats curry?"

Ana couldn't help but laugh. "Sort of. Why don't you make a batch of plain pancakes so you can have some bacon with it then another batch of chocolate chips in. Then you can choose which ones you'd like."

"Ohs. Otays! I like that idea!" She happily chimed looking to Gail before she turned her head slightly seeing something moving. Seeing it was Taylor she gasped. "Taylors!" She looked to Ana. "Mommy I needs to get down! Quick!"

Ana looked to her and raised an eyebrow before she helped her daughter down and watched her run over to Taylor.

"Hi Taylors!"

Taylor smiled. "Good morning Miss Lily-Rose. How are you?"

"I'm good thank yous Taylor. How are yous?"

"I am very well thank you."

"Taylors…."

"Yes, Miss Lily-Rose?"

"When mommy buys me a Moana outfit, will you plays with me and be Maui?" She asked, fluttering her eyelashes up to him.

Taylor frowned slightly. "I don't believe I know that film Miss Lily-Rose…"

"Hangs on." She told him before running over to Ana. "Mommy. Phone pwease. We must show Taylors."

Ana couldn't help but smirk as she handed her daughter her phone. "Don't drop it." She told her taking another sip of her tea as she watched the interaction.

Running over to Taylor, Lily-Rose bought up the film on Ana's phone before showing it to Taylor. "Look! It's yous but with more hair!"

Taylor's eyes widened slightly before he looked to Lily-Rose. "He's not wearing very much…"

"That's because they lives in Hawaii. Its hot there. Pwease will you play Moana with me?" She asked one more time.

Taylor looked to her. He was done for. She was giving him the puppy dog eyes. Those eyes he couldn't stay mad at. Those eyes he couldn't say no to. Looking to the three adults behind Lily-Rose he frowned seeing they were all dying to laugh. Looking back to the adorable three-year-old in front of him he smiled. "Of course, I will."

"Yes!" Lily-Rose squealed as she threw her arms around him. "Thank yous Taylor." She beamed before running to her mother and giving her phone back. "Mommy. We must finds a Moana outfit. Quicks." She gasped. "And you can be Sina! And daddy can be Chiefs Tui!"

Christian frowned. "Who?"

"Chiefs Tui." She told him with a roll of the eyes before she put her hands on her hips. "We must find outfits. I wants to play."

"Hold on there Miss Sassy Pants." Ana began laughing to her. "We haven't had breakfast yet. We can do shopping later okay? Now eat up before you turn hangry."

"I don't gets hangry." She told her before opening her hands up for Ana to pick her up.

"Oh yes you do." Ana laughed bringing her onto her lap and blew raspberries into her neck, smiling as she let out a squeal and a giggle.

"Mommy, daddy. What are we doing today?" She asked looking to them.

"Well…daddy has to go to work. And mommy has to speak to some people. So, I thought because you have your sassy pants on, I'd give you to Aunt Kate and Uncle Elliot." She mused with a smirk to her.

"Will Auntie Kates make cookies with me?" Lily-Rose asked as she watched Gail plate up the pancakes like a lion watching its prey.

"I'm sure she will if you ask her nicely."

"Will Uncle Lelliot…"

"Uncle Elliot will do whatever you tell him." Christian interrupted looking to her.

Lily-Rose grinned. "Yeah? Otays I will go to Auntie Kates and Uncle Lelliot." She frowned. "Where's Uncle Lukey?" She sighed. "I miss him."

Ana sighed. "I know baby. Uncle Lukey is just really busy. How about we call him later when you come home? See if he can come and see us?"

"Otays!" She beamed before grinning as Gail put her plate in front of her. "Thank yous Gails. Wow this looks so yummy."

"You are very welcome Lily-Rose. And don't forget you helped me do the most important bit with making the batter. That's the hardest part."

"I used my muscles."

"That you did." Gail smiled.

Christian smiled before he looked to Taylor. "Give me forty minutes." He told him before looking to Ana. "Want me to drop sassy pants off on my way?" He asked taking a bite out of his pancakes.

Ana gave a nod. "If you don't mind. My first meeting is in about twenty minutes and it's the insurance people so can't miss it."

"Well, you give me miss sassy and go and sort yourself out."

Ana nodded before kissing Lily-Rose's head and moving her onto Christian's lap. Normally she would prefer her in a chair but the stools were quite high and she was worried she'd fall. "Be good for daddy and eat all your breakfast." She told her before heading off to the bedroom.

"Byes mommy!" Lily-Rose chimed before tucking into her pancakes some more. Looking to Christian she grinned. "Are your pancakes yummy daddy?"

"Super yummy." He agreed with her with a smile. "Now finish up and drink your orange juice and then we shall get ready for the day. What would you like to wear today?"

"Urm ifs I'm baking then I must wear something that doesn't matter if I gets messy." She told him matter of factly.

Christian nodded as he finished off his breakfast.

"Daddy?"

"Yes baby?"

"Will yous and mommy gets married now?" She asked looking to him. "And can I be a bridesmaid and throw flowers down the aisle?" She asked innocently.

Christian smiled and kissed her head. "One day." He whispered to her.

Lily-Rose's face lit up. "Weally?"

"Really. But don't tell mommy. It has to be a surprise." He whispered.

"Otays. "She whispered back with a grin before she finished off her juice. "I finished daddy."

"Okay let's go and get ready for the day." He chimed as he got up with her and headed to the bedroom a smile tugging his lips. He couldn't wait to ask Ana to marry him. He knew it was probably a bit soon but one thing he knew for sure that he was going to ask Ana to marry him and they were going to be a family and he knew when the time came to ask, he was going to have the helping hand of one Miss Lily-Rose.
