When Harry opened the door to the waiting room he saw Leo sitting on one of the chairs, Edward and Graham sitting either side of him listening to the story he was reading to them. Darius was sitting on Sam's lap as she also read him a story. The door squeaked slightly when Harry pushed it open and all five of them looked up as he walked in.
"Daddy" Darius shouted as he spotted his father and a grin broke out on Harry's face.
"Harry how is Nikki?" Leo asked as Harry walked over "and the baby?"
"Daddy mummy have baby?" Graham asked as Harry ruffled all three of his sons' hair and picked Darius up.
"Mummy has had the baby and they are both perfectly fine" Harry told them all then his grin grew "We have a baby girl" he directed this last bit towards Sam and Leo who grinned.
They both congratulated him and Leo clapped a hand on the younger mans back in a 'manly hug'.
"Shall we go and see mummy then?" Harry asked his sons who nodded enthusiastically and ran towards the door.
Nikki was sitting up in the hospital bed gazing down at her sleeping baby girl in her arms, the newborn was already wearing a light pink baby grow but was still wrapped in a pink blanket. Nikki smiled proudly as the baby made a few noises in her sleep and clenched her fists in the pink mittens she wore. After three boys Nikki was glad to have a girl and she knew Harry was as well. She leant down and pressed a kiss onto the baby's nose and breathed in the unique baby smell as she did so. Looking up as the door opened Nikki smiled at Harry as he walked into the room with their sons.
"Mummy" Edward and Graham shouted as they saw their mother and ran over to the bed.
"Be careful" Harry warned as he walked over and placed Darius on the bed then helped his twins to climb onto the bed.
All three of them were hesitant as they saw the small being in their mother's arms but Nikki motioned for them to move closer to her and they carefully did so.
"Sam and Leo said they'll give us time alone first" Harry said quietly to Nikki as he sat on the bed next to her and wrapped one arm around her shoulder. Nikki nodded and turned back to her three boys before moving Emery so they could see her better.
"Baby sister?" Edward asked as he pointed to the sleeping baby and his parents nodded "Hello" he grinned to his baby sister and she opened her eyes causing the three boys to gaze in awe at her. Harry chuckled slightly when Graham leant down and kissed Emery on the nose and Nikki sniffed slightly.
"What's her name mama?" Graham asked as Harry reached out and pulled Darius onto his lap and pressed a kiss onto his brown hair causing the youngest son to laugh.
"Emery Sammy Nicola Cunningham" Harry replied
"Like mummy and Auntie Sam" Edward grinned and both parents nodded.
Nikki yawned suddenly and Harry leant over and placed a kiss onto her forehead before placing Darius on the bed next to his brothers.
"You're exhausted Nikki" he told her as he stood up "Get some sleep"
"Will you stay?" Nikki asked sleepily as Harry took Emery from her arms and cradled the wide awake baby in his arms.
"Of course" Harry laughed slightly "I'm not going to leave you"
"Okay" Nikki nodded then leant over to kiss her three sons before trying to stifle a yawn.
"Mummy tired?" Darius asked and Nikki nodded
"Yes mummy's tired"
"Shall we let mummy sleep now?" Harry suggested and all three boys nodded and hugged their mother "Auntie Sam and Uncle Leo said they would take you home" Harry told them "and I want you all to be good"
"Okay daddy" Edward nodded and his two younger brothers followed suit.
Harry smiled at them before gently leaning over to kiss Nikki being careful of the baby in his arms.
"I'll be back in a minute, I'm going to introduce our little girl to Leo and Sam"
Nikki only nodded and gave him a smile before laying down in bed and after feeling her sons climb off the bed, turned over on her side and faced the cot her daughter was in.
Fifteen minutes later Harry walked back into the room to see that Nikki was already fast asleep. Placing a gentle kiss on his wife's cheek he ran one hand over her hair before sitting in the chair at the edge of the bed and gazed down at his daughter who was gazing up at him with her blue eyes. Harry smiled down at her and kissed her gently on the nose causing her to sneeze suddenly and Harry to laugh.
"You know I'm going to have to be wary when you're older" he told Emery "You're going to have boys lining up outside our home" he paused "Just like your mummy" he chuckled. Sighing, Harry shifted Emery slightly and continued to talk "Actually I'm not going to let any nasty boys near you until you are at least thirty"
Emery's eyes drooped slightly and after a few minutes her breathing evened out and the tiny baby fell asleep in her father's arms. Harry then stood up and placed the sleeping baby in the cot next to the bed and placed the blanket over her body.
