Old secrets

Chapter 29

Chloe's POV

"Well I should say shared custody goes to Chloe Hosterman and Harry smith" the judge says smiling over at us, I instantly hug Harry with a smile on my face. My baby is going to be known as mine. I pull away from Harry and look over at my parents, I felt bad it had to be done this way. I walk over and take Nora out of the pram. God I missed her, I hug her close to me before I look at her little face

"Hello baby" I whisper as she grabs my cheek making me laugh softly. In a month she's grown so much

***

It's 2 am and Nora will not stop crying, Harry went downstairs with his mother to make a bottle. He doesn't know how to that's why his mother is helping. While I'm walking around the room holding Nora, trying to calm her. Maybe this will be harder then I thought, Ryan and his family are coming tomorrow and are spending the night sense it's a long drive. I hated saying goodbye to him yesterday but I got to take my baby home.

"Shh Nora, you're okay" I tell her as I hug her close to me, Harry's mom said she could be unsettled because she's in a new house. As well as the fact she's used to my parents, I mean she knows me but I never done much. She doesn't know Harry she's met him once, nor does she know his family.

****

we've been up all night and Nora has not slept once, Harry and I are sitting on the couch as his parents and brother are in the kitchen which is in the same room as the lounge room. Jeff is getting ready for school, Harry is taking time off to help with Nora. I dropped out.

Nora is sitting on my lap watching the cartoons on the tv, Harry is leaning back on the couch while I'm leaning into the arm of the couch, I'm holding Nora even tho she can sit by herself if she moves she'd fall off my lap.

"You two look like you haven't slept" Jeff says with a laugh, mind you he slept through Nora's crying. Harry grabbed a couch pillow and threw it at Jeff making Nora giggle. I smile softly and say goodbye to Jeff when he leaves

"Look it's Ryan" I say to Nora as he comes inside with his family, I hear Ryan laugh but Nora is to focused on cartoons to care. My 7 month old is addicted to tv

"What happened to you two?" Ryan asks with a laugh as he takes Nora from me, sense she's not on my lap anymore I slouch back more in the couch

"Nora wouldn't sleep all night" Harry says

"Nor has she now" I add as Ryan sits on the floor with her. Harry and Ryan's parents are over in the kitchen talking

"Where is Alison?" Harry asks yawning

"She's staying at a friends tonight she didn't want to come" Ryan says as he gently puts Nora on the ground so she's laying on her stomach, Nora uses her hands to hold herself up a bit

"She crawling?" Ryan asks me. I shake my head

"She's trying tho, has been sense I was at home" I say watching her, her eyes are on Ryan as he moves back away from her and leans down. He's still sitting on the floor

"Come on nora" he says making me smile as Harry laughs a little

"She won't crawl Ryan" I say with a smile

"Come on Nora prove mommy wrong" he says helping Nora onto her hands and knees but Nora falls, she doesn't hurt herself tho, that's what she does. She can get on her hands and knees but can't move, I smile as ryan continues to try and get her to crawl. Soon enough she looks at the tv and pays no attention to Ryan making the three off us laugh.

"Harry are you okay with her for a second?" I ask Harry as I stand up, he nods and Ryan gets up.  I lead Ryan up to my room before shutting the door, as soon as the door is closed ryan crashes his lips onto mine
