{Braelyn's POV}

I was sat on the couch with my 12-month-old, Ainsley resting in my lap as we watched her Dad, my boyfriend, do soundcheck with Why Don't We, his boyband.

"Uh-uh, no Ainsley, you know that isn't okay my sweetpea! We know not to do that whilst Daddy is rehearsing. Come on, let's go find Lavy" I whisper, Ainsley, nodding her head as I stand up from the couch as we walk over to Gabbie and Lavender and sit with them

Ainsley then babbles her version of an apology as she wasn't as mastered in her talking unlike her cousin, Lavender was. In which, was completely fine, Zach nor I were worried that Ainsley was taking this long to speak as she's probably still trying to figure it out as I for sure remember being told I was the exact same at Ainsley's age. So, there was nothing for us to panic about as to why Ainsley wasn't able to talk yet but babbles. 

"Good girl princess..." I trail off as I continue to keep eye contact on Ainsley, making sure she didn't try to go for the stage again - although it was only soundcheck

Gabbie, Lavender and Christina had joined Ainsley and I as we all watched the boys rehearse as we all started chatting.

"Lav, Ains, look, it's the boys! They're singing!" Gabbie bends down to both Lav and Ainsley, pointing out each of the boys, from Ainsley and Lavender's Dad's to their uncles as the two little girls clapped in excitement as Christina and I awed in the cuteness of Gabbie and I's little girls

"Dada!" Lavender squeals out, clapping her hands together as we all cheer. Gabbie, Christina and I watch on as Ainsley tilts her head in confusion which makes me giggle. She had heard Lav say that word so many times but couldn't figure out how to shape her mouth to say that word just yet 

"Yes Lav, that is your Daddy on that stage rehearsing! Good girl!" I say in my baby voice that Lavender always loved me talking to her with as she stands up and jumps over Gabbie's legs, landing right in between the space between Ainsley and I.

"Z-Zachy!" Lately, Gabbie and I had been trying to teach Lav on how to say uncle Zach's name and today, for the first time, she did it - with a little bit of hesitation 

"Well done Lav! Yeah, that is uncle Zachy!" I cheer, clapping my hands as I watch the glee unfurl onto Lavender's as well as Ainsley's face as they both start clapping 

I noticed the boys look over at Gabbie, Christina and I. The boys all smiling at Lavender and Ainsley and how much they were enjoying the rehearsal. 

"...Dada!" The room falls silent. Zach snaps his head around, tears pricking his eyes as he realised.

"A-Ainsley, baby, what did you just say?" Zach's voice shakes as the tears continue building in his eyes as the group watches closely 

"Dada!" Exclaiming again, Zach doesn't waste any longer to rush over. Scooping Ainsley in his arms as the room erupts into cheers

"Y-yes, that's me! Dada!" Zach breathly laughs, pointing at himself as Ainsley grips onto the buttoned-up shirt that he had left open with a tank underneath. She giggles as I make eye contact with Jack, both of us smiling as I remember when Lav said Dada for the first time

"Dada! Dada! Dada!" She repeats another three times. The excitement bubbling over as she pokes at Zach's face as he spins her around. The boys wasting no time in filming this moment, Zack catching the entire moment on his camera. 

"Ainsley just said her first word!" Daniel squeals out, the group cheering. Corbyn's camera facing Zach as the two of them fell to the couch, Ainsley waddling over to me for cuddles. 

"So, how do you feel about this, Dad?" Corbyn asks, the camera right in Zach's face as he tries to hide his face from the camera as he cried. 

"I-I wow. It feels like I did something correctly!" Zach's voice breaks as the tears stream down his cheeks

"Zach!" Corbyn coos as he pulls Zach into a hug, squeezing him tightly. The other boys rushing over as they squished him in a group hug. I had come over as well, with a tissue in hand as he wipes underneath his eyes as Ainsley strategically crawls over to him. 

He holds up our little baby girl, blowing a raspberry to her nose making her giggle. We all giggle at her adorable reaction and all the new sensations she was feeling. 

"My little darling!" Zach whispers, pulling Ainsley close, she tilts her head as she then moves her mouth up to Zach's nose, blowing a raspberry onto it. 

"Dada! Boop!" She giggles shyly as her mouth leaves Zach's nose after the raspberry. 

"Gosh, I love you so much, darling girl." 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Awe, this was short and sweet but I love it so much! I'll make sure to do it for the other four boys as well and they may have a better storyline than this one does haha. I hope you guys enjoyed it nevertheless. 

I love you all,

a xx
