Our Little

Chapter 7 ~ Sneaky

~ Ali's POV ~

My eyes opened and I stretched and yawned.

I saw the curtains were very dark. It must still be night time.

I saw my head was where my feet should have been again. Why does this keep happening?

I wasn't really very tired anymore so I stood up in my crib and looked round the room.

I then climbed over the rails and landed on the floor.

I reached through the bars and grabbed Ra Ra and penguin.

I went out the door and looked at Daddy and Dadas door.

I didn't want to wake them so I went downstairs.

I walked to the living room and put the small light on making a bit of light.

I sat on the floor and cuddled Ra Ra and penguin.

I got the paper from the table and some of my crayons. I drew Daddy, Dada, Ra Ra and I. I then wrote in a speech bubble: I love Daddy and Dada. I coloured them in making me smile.

After I had drawn another 2 pictures my eyes became tired.

I sucked my thumb and tried to finish the last picture. I felt my eyes close so I curled up small and drifted off into my dreams.

~ Alex's POV ~

I looked at my clock and saw it was 8am. I yawned and stretched.

I blinked a few times to get my eyes working and rolled over seeing Lloyd rub his eyes.

I grabbed his face and we both smiled at eachother.

"Morning Mr Jones." I smiled.

"It still feels strange you calling me that." He chuckled.

We both smiled.

"I suppose I should get up then." I heaved myself up.

He did the same and he went to the bathroom.

I walked down the stairs forgetting to put a top on.

I walked past the lounge and saw Ali sprawled out on the floor with her thumb in her mouth, with drawings and crayons surrounding her. She was fast asleep.

I went over and crouched down and saw what she was drawing.

One said: I love Daddy and Dada.

The others were about how much she loved us.

I smiled at every single one. They made me feel a bit emotional.

I gulped my tears back and stood up.

I then went upstairs where Lloyd came out the bathroom.

"Jeez put a top on." He chuckled.

"Come." I grabbed his hand and led him downstairs.

We went to the living room and Lloyd saw Ali.

He chuckled quietly.

I then crouched down by her and showed us the drawings she drew.

He took them and looked at them.

A smile crept across his face and he swallowed deeply.

"I love her so much." He got out.

"So do I." I smiled.

I carefully picked her up and her head rested on my shoulder. Her diaper felt a bit damp and the carpet was slightly damp.
