HI BABIES

Ok so I know my activity has been shocking, but seriously, I am so poorly, and it’s not gettting any better. I’m going to get a real early night and try and sleep it off.

I PROMISE I will reply to EVERYONE in the morning who I owe. 

I’m sorry for being rubbish :(

Ivy had never exactly known how to… behave around children. What do they like? What do they find interesting? Are they still into pulling dope moves on their skateboards? However, the other woman seemed friendly enough, prompting Ivy not to leave immediately. “What’s… his name?” she asked, assuming that was the question you were supposed to start with (maybe age? maybe interests? infants these days!). In all honesty, Ivy couldn’t imagine having a child – not only would she probably make a terrible mother, but putting up with… those noises everyday… now that would be a pain.

It wouldn’t have taken a genius to pick up on the fact that the girl before Nel had no clue about babies, her face gave her away completely, and she looked terrified. Smiling at her question she replied effortlessly. “His name is Roman.” At the sound of his name, the screeching baby came to a stop and big blue eyes fell on his Mummy. She didn’t hold her breath, as he could erupt again at any moment, but it was a godsend, maybe the girl before her would stop looking so scared now Roman had given up the torture act.

Giving a smile to Nel, Brooke nodded gently taking the little boy into her arms. “Yeah of course.” She looked down at the little boy, gently tickling his tummy trying to calm him down.

Handing Roman over Nel sighed lightly. “You are a godsend, Brooke, honestly.” She said quickly, before rushing over to the bar area to ask if the waitress could kindly warm the bottle up. A few minutes later, and one warmed bottle up, Nel was back by Brooke’s side. “You’re a natural.” She stated, noticing how calm her little boy seemed to be in the younger girls arms.

“I wish he’d fix his mood. He’s being very uncooperative, today.” She sighed and looked down at her little boy. She ran her hand through his curls. “He’s three. I remember when he was that tiny. I had no idea what I was doing.” She laughed. “I still don’t know what I’m doing, half the time. How old is he? He’s so adorable.” She gushed, looking at the little boy.

“I think every little boy has their uncooperative days, don’t they?” Nel replied, aiming it more at the little boy, rather than his Mum, as she tapped under his chin softly. “God, 3 seems so far away.” The blonde laughed herself before looking up at the female before her. “He’s 9 months, and this is his first time in Brighton.” She replied, her heart lifting as Roman’s wails finally started to subside.

Brooke had been walking through the town, her coat and scarf keeping her warm. It had been a while since she’d been here but things just didn’t seem to change. She spotted a familiar face just as a baby let out a cry. She looked down at the little boy then back at Nel. “Oh no… Don’t worry. Do you need any help?”

A familiar face was exactly what Nel needed, but the sheer look that Brooke had given her simply reminded the blonde that she was going to have to explain exactly how she’d became the sole protector of a nine month old baby. “Please can you just hold him for a second, just while I go warm this bottle up?” She asked, her face pleading with her company.

“screaming?” courtney winced, giving her the infant a once over, “why’s he do that?”

Nel nodded at his one word question. “Because he’s a nightmare.” She started. “And probably because he’s awake, and that’s his least favourite thing.”

Ivy had been wary of nearly everything for the past couple of days, neurotic at best (granted, she always was – that’s the whole point of neuroticism – but she was normally able to mask it with a variety of substances). Perhaps it was justified, perhaps she was simply paranoid – either way, the song remained the same. Therefore, when she heard the rather unexpected noise of a child, her first response, as always, was, “Shit.” (Granted, she’d never been a big fan of kids in the first place.) “Shit – no, no sorry – it’s fine. He’s… y’know, young and shit.”

Nel’s eyes widened as the younger female approached her and was instantly taken a back with Roman’s screams, which she understood, after nine months she herself had still not become accustomed to the youngster bellows. A small laugh escaped the blondes lips as the girl spoke, he definitely was what she’d managed to push out. “Yeah, he sure is.” She replied with a smile, cooing in Roman’s direction with little effect on the monstrosity of a sound that was leaving his body. “I think he just likes the attention, which is not good for Mommy.” She continued, throwing a sympathetic smile at the girl who looked terrified.

Dahlia dragged Kash into the cafe. She needed to get out of her stuffy apartment but she also needed to get some homework done. Kash was being a bit of a brat and she figured maybe he’d act right if she got him out of their tiny apartment. No such luck. He was whiny and pouting about everything. “Kash, I swear, if you don’t fix your attitude I will take away your tablet and cancel your sleepover with Uncle Raj and Lucy. Do you understand?” He frowned and poked out his bottom lip. “Fix your face.” She scolded and he pulled his lip back in as Dahlia turned towards the sound of a child crying. “No, you’re perfectly fine. Babie’s are going to cry. No need to apologize. My son is giving me a hard time too. Maybe it’s something in the air.” She laughed.

Nel gave a soft smile and nodded in agreement before looking down at the tiny male that was nearly tripping over his bottom lip at their feet. “I think Brighton does it to all of us at some point.” She replied with a small laugh, before turning to Roman and looking at him, tears were streaming down the babies face and a wave of guilt hit her even though she knew it was just like him to play up in a public place. “How old is he?” Nel asked, motioning to the youngster, rocking Roman on her hip to try and soothe him, before quickly plunging a hand in her bag to find a pacifier, popping it in his mouth the crying stopped, but she couldn’t guarantee that it would keep it that way.

Coffee in one hand, baby on her opposite hip, Nel furrowed her brow slightly at the winter scene that unraveled before her, the last place she’d wanted to come was here, but she couldn’t hide away forever, let alone hide away forever without any explanation for why she left in the first place and with a baby. Looking down at her son, Nel kissed his forehead before downing the last of her coffee, turning briefly she came face to face with one of the natives, and just on queue Roman’s lungs came to life, a strong bellow exiting his mouth to draw the attention of what felt like everyone in a one mile radius. “Shit, I’m sorry, I’d run now if you don’t want people to think you’re associated with me. He probably wont stop for a while.”
