"Lil' Meredith is four months old today! Yay! My little baby has been here for four months? My lil' darling! Of course it's you, angel!", Olivia blew a raspberry on baby Meredith's soft tummy. The little baby showed her a toothless smile as her legs moved in happiness.

"You're so pretty, you know? Yes, you do!", the baby laughed again. Olivia smiled so widely, that her mouth hurt, but could you really blame her? Their greatest creation was there in front of her, smiling and kicking her legs in happiness.

The baby didn't know that she was a miracle or that after the complications during birth there were needles pressed to her skin. Baby Meredith didn't know, but Olivia and Harry did. Tears were shed and the pain they felt was indescribable.

Harry walked home shortly after. He took a deep breath and found his smile again. He left his backpack by his coat and let his heart lead him to the bedroom the laughter came from.
The laughter didn't stop and his heart fluttered at the magical sound. He was there, watching them be themselves. His tired girlfriend playing with their daughter.

"Hi, babies.", he approached them and wrapped his arms around his lover's waist. His lips kissing her cheek repeatedly as the baby on the changing table laughed at their actions.
"H!", Olivia laughed and with her finger brought his chin up so that she could press her lips against his. "Missed you.", she muttered and that was probably when Harry noticed the dark circles under her eyes.

"Go sleep, baby. I'll take care of this cupcake.", he kissed her once again and took Meredith from the changing table.

"I can do it. Don't worry about it—"
"Please, darling. You need to rest well.", his palm rested against her cheek, stroking it with his thumb. Olivia closed her eyes as she felt tears form in them.

"I don't want you to think that I can't do it. I don't want you to think that I'm weak.", she whispered and pressed herself against one side of his chest as the other side was occupied by his baby.

"You're so strong baby.", he told her and kissed her head. She shook her head at his words. "You're just saying that, because you feel bad for me...", she lowly continued.

"No, darling. None of that, now. This baby is ours and I think it's fair for her to stay with her daddy as well. I don't want her first word to be mummy.", he jokingly said and bumped his hip with hers.

She lazily smiled at his action and bumped her hip against his again. "Let's go in the living room. I baked some cookies and muffins."

"Baby... Your feet must be sore... Please stop tiring yourself...", Harry told her as they walked in the room, the sweet smell of fresh deserts invading his nostrils. "But, god, it smells so good...", he inhaled softly and if he had paid attention, he would've heard the baby do the same.

Olivia took a muffin and unwrapped it from its paper and guided it towards Harry's mouth.
"Open your mouth bebe.", she said in a baby voice, making him laugh but he still took a bite. "It's so good.", Harry's eyes rolled back at the tasty desert.

"I know it is.", she lightly laughed and turned the Bluetooth speaker on. The song she had connected with her phone was Born to Hand Jive from their favourite film, Grease.

"Ah, here we go.", he mumbled with his mouth full. "You can't expect me not to dance."
Baby Meredith looked at him with her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Probably wondering what he was talking about.

"Then dance, baby!", Olivia laughed and took Harry's free hand, leading him in their living room. The other hand holding the baby's little body and when they were on – what they imagined it to be – the dance floor, they started moving with beat. Their bodies swinging as laughter escaped their throats.

Even the little baby laughed and she couldn't have asked for a happier day.

Welcome to #Harry'sMonday, something I never thought I would write. 🥰🥰

As you've probably noticed, there are some changes happening in this book. Since the end is coming soon, I want this book to be super pretty and organised. I'll also start editing the chapters a bit, so that everything is how it should be.

I hope you enjoyed dancing baby ! Please leave a vote and a comment! ⭐️

I hope to see you in it all started with olivia... 🥰🥺💛

Love you,

belle.
