Grace POV

“What do you want on you toast honey?” Mum ask me I’m sitting on Louis’s or dads lap still I’m so tired and in quite a bit of pain. I look up at her with some confusion.

“Do you want jam or peanut butter?”

“Can I just have plain toast?”

“Have you ever had a spread on toast princess?” Daddy ask me I can’t be bothered answering I just want to sleep.

“Maybe tomorrow we can try something on it aye?”

“Here you go honey one piece of toast and some milk” mum says I sit up and dad passes me my toast I take a couple of small bites and grab a drink of milk. I start feeling sick.

“Just a little bit more baby” dad says

“I can’t I feel sick” I look at him I can feel tears in my eyes silently pleading with him

“Ok princess lets go put you to bed” dad says he picks me up

“Louis no she has to eat” Mum says

“she feels sick I’m not going to be the reason she gets sick” dad says his voice slightly agitated and he carries me upstairs to my room, and Galileo following  He outs me down and I go to my closet and get some pajamas I go to the bathroom and change brush my teeth and climb into bed. Daddy tucks me in with Atticus in my arms. And sits beside me

 “How are you feeling princess?” he says

“I’m ok thank you. My tummy hurts a little bit”

“How about your knee?”

“That still hurts it should be ok in the morning “I say.

“Well then princess goodnight “he says he lingers at the door for a minute then turns the light of and is about to shut the door.

“Wait daddy, can you please turn leave the light on and the door a little” I hate the dark and hate been in a room with closed doors alone.

“Its ok princess “dad comes in and turns a light on that is on my desk and opens the door.

“Thank you” I say in between a yawn.

“Good night Princess”

I snuggle deeper under my covers and Galileo rest he head on my sore knee almost like he is trying to make it better.

El POV.

I just want her to be healthy I think Louis is scared of her been sick but not making her eat will make her more sick. Louis comes back down stairs.

“I’m sorry babe for doing that” he says instantly

“I know babe but she is going to get really sick if we don’t get her eating” I reply

“I know we can try tomorrow I just didn’t want to push her tonight. She just started trusting us and calling us mum and Dad I didn’t want to lose that”

“I know it is an awesome feeling they can we introduce Grace to everyone the world doesn’t know about her yet” I say

“Heck yes let’s put it on twitter now. We both let the world know over twitter that we have adopted out little girl. We get lots of support and some hate.

A few weeks later:

My phone rings it is my agent.

“Hey we have a job for you it is a month longer in America you keen” he asks.
