“Gwil?” Y/N mumbled, reaching across the bed in hopes of coming into contact with Gwilym’s warm body and her tired frown deepening as she came up empty, met only with cool sheets.
“Morning, Cariad,” his arms wrapped around her from behind in an awkward position that made it clear he was stood by the side of the bed.
Even so it brought a smile to her face and she rolled over to squint up at him.
“What’re you doing up?” She asked and Gwilym chuckled, leaning down to kiss her forehead.
“Happy birthday, Mum!” Three voices cheered and Y/N flinched at the sudden noise.
“What the fuck?”
“Y/N!” Gwilym scolded, laughing.
“Sorry - forget that word!” Y/N said, giggling a she sat up in bed, rubbing her eyes and smiling gently at her three kids.
“Mum, I’m seventeen, I’ve definitely heard the word fuck before,” Lily pointed out, walking over and placing the tray onto Y/N’s lap.
“Lily,” Gwilym said, his tone warning.
“Sorry,” Lily said rolling her eyes.
“This all looks amazing, thank you guys,” Y/N said, looking down at the tray of food.
Gwilym climbed back into bed on his side, the three kids getting onto the foot of the bed, Jess with a mug of coffee in her hands and a scowl on her face.
“What’s wrong, Tiger?” Gwilym asked, laughing at her unimpressed face.
“It’s too early,” Jess muttered.
“Mum! We made you something!” Sam cut in.
“Oh, you didn’t need to do that!” Y/N protested as she began to eat her breakfast.
“We did! We spent ages on it!” Sam informed her, pulling out a book from behind him.
Tears filled Y/N’s eyes as she flipped through the book - taking them through hers and Gwilym’s relationship, Lily’s birth, starting Bohemian Rhapsody, Jess’ birth, Sam’s birth and then all of their school photos.

“Hey!” Gwilym’s voice was rushed and he was clearly out of breath but Y/N could hear her husbands smile through the phone.
“Hey! We’re outside!” Y/N informed him, crouching down with great effort to be face to face with her toddler. Lily giggled at Y/N and reached out a chubby fist to pull on a strand of her mother’s hair. Y/N chuckled at her daughter, shaking her head adoringly.
“Okay! Brian’s going to go get you - I’ve got to finish up in make up, sorry Cariad,” Gwilym said regretfully. Y/N waved him off, despite knowing he couldn’t see her actions over the phone.
“It’s alright, love, Lily’s been dying to see her Granda Bri again, haven’t you sweetheart?” Y/N asked her three year old and Lily giggled joyfully, clapping in delight. “You hear that?” Y/N asked. Gwilym’s low rumble of a laugh gave her confirmation that he had, indeed, heard his daughter’s joy.
“I’ll see you soon then,” Gwilym said.
“See you soon,” Y/N agreed and, just as she was about to hang up she heard Gwilym calling through the phone again:
“I love you!” Y/N was laughing as she brought the phone back up to her ear.
“I love you too,” she hung up the call and swooped Lily up into her arms, bringing the toddler to rest gently against her swollen stomach. Lily’s arms wrapped eagerly around her mother’s neck, her head coming to rest on her shoulder. “Your daddy’s silly, isn’t he?” Y/N cooed, gently bouncing the child. Lily perked up straight away.
“Daddy?” Y/N chuckled, nuzzling her face into her daughter’s hair.
“No, not yet, sweetheart, we’ll see Daddy soon,” Y/N promised. Lily sighed and settled back into Y/N’s arms.
“Y/N! You look wonderful!” Y/N beamed at Brian’s voice, turning around to greet him. Lily’s arms immediately went to grab for Brian and Brian chuckled, taking her from Y/N’s arms. “Hello, Lily, you look lovely!”
“Granda Bri!” Lily giggled, pulling at Brian’s curly grey hair. Brian pressed a kiss to the top of Lily’s head, chuckling before moving his gaze to Y/N.
“It’s so nice to see you again,” Brian said, moving to Y/N and pressing a kiss to her cheek.
“You too, Bri - you look great!”
“Not as wonderful as you,” Brian promised. “Come on, I know your dad,” he booped Lily’s nose playfully, tempting a joyful giggle to fall past her lips. “Is eagerly awaiting your arrival,” Lily’s little hands closed around Brian’s shirt and she snuggled down into his body.
“Want Daddy,” she agreed, the words muffled by Brian’s body.
“Come on, sweetheart, lets get you to Daddy,” Y/N murmured, running her hand gently up and down Lily’s back.
Brian and Y/N made smalltalk as the aging guitarist carried her daughter and walked them to the entrance to the set. She opened the door, allowing Brian with Lily to move through into the building first.
As they approached the room at the end of the hallway, voices could be heard. Gwilym’s distinct laughter followed and Lily instantly perked up in Brian’s arm upon hearing it, straining desperately to get out and be let to the floor. Brian looked at Y/N, his eyebrows raised in a silent question. Y/N rolled her eyes and nodded, queueing Brian to gently place Lily on the floor.
Without so much as looking back the three year old rushed as quickly as she could on her little legs towards the sound of her father’s laughter. She reached the door and glared as it, as though her harsh three-year old stare could open the door on its own.
Brian chuckled at her unimpressed look and opened the door but Y/N placed her hand on it before Lily could enter and crouched down to be eye-level with her daughter again.
“Remember what I said, Lil, Daddy might be filming so you need to be quiet when you go in, okay Sweetheart?” Lily let out a grumpy sigh and nodded in agreement.
“Okay Mummy,” Lily said and Y/N brought her forwards to kiss her nose, delighting in the giggle her daughter let out.
As Y/N struggled back up to her feet, Brian pushed the door open for Lily and placed his hands on Y/N’s arm to help her back up.
“Daddy!” Y/N looked at Brian, eyebrows raised in amusement and mild exhaustion. Brian laughed and led her into the big room.
“So much for being quiet,” Y/N chuckled as she watched her daughter run into her father’s legs, a complete disregard for the other people on set watching or the cameras set up. Y/N gave the director a bashful smile, clearly embarrassed by her daughters actions.
Not that Gwilym appeared to care at all. His entire face lit up as Lily charged into the room and towards him, pushing his friend who he had been talking to out of the way in order to meet his daughter half way and sweep her up into his arms, laughing.
“Hello, Princess! I’ve missed you!”
“Missed you Daddy!” Lily giggled, her arms wrapping tightly around Gwilym’s neck and pulling her face as close to his as she could manage.
“I missed you too, Princess,” Gwilym said, nuzzling his face into her neck and Y/N could see his eyes crinkling into the adoring grin that he always wore when in the presence of his daughter.
“I did ask her to come in quietly.” Y/N promised as she approached her little family. Gwilym looked up at her and, if possible, it seemed as though his smile grew.
“You made it!” Gwilym grinned. Y/N nodded.
“I promised, and once Lily caught hold of the idea you know that she wouldn’t let it go,” Gwilym laughed at Y/N’s faux exasperated tone and then his excited face dropped to one of concern.
“Come on, you should sit down,” Gwilym ushered his wife one-handed towards a chair at the edge of the room. Y/N rolled her eyes slightly but complied with his wishes with an affectionate smile on her face.
“Gwil, you know it’s fine for me to stand up, it won’t hurt the bean.” Y/N pointed out as Gwilym helped her lower herself down into the chair.
“You should relax, though.” Brian inputted.
“I just wanted to make sure,” Gwilym said, the smile on his face unabashedly wied and his cheeks tinted a light pink.
“Who’s this then, are you going to introduce us?” An arm sling over Gwilym’s shoulder, pulling playfully at the crown curls that fell from his wig. Gwilym rolled his eyes, making Y/N giggle.
Gwilym turned, Lily still in his arms, to look at his castmates.
“This is my daughter, Lily,” he looked down at his child. “You going to say hello, Princess?” He asked, gently kissing the top of her head. Lily had never been a particularly shy baby, as she put on her broadest smile and waved her chubby fists at the people who had crowded around her.
“Hi!”
“God, Gwil, she’s adorable!” The only woman in the mix cooed, landing herself in Lily’s good books straight away as the young girl puffed up her chest proudly and reached for her. The woman looked at Gwilym for permission and Y/N watched with a smile a her husband gave it, gently passing his tiny toddler into the woman’s arms. “Hello, beautiful, I’m Lucy.”
“Aunt Lucy?” Lily inquired, pulling on Lucy’s hair. Lucy looked at Gwilym, a questioning smile on her face and Gwilym passed the expression onto Y/N who shrugged - Gwilym knew his castmates better than she did, it was his decision to make. Gwilym bit his lip, eyebrows raised.
“Do you want me to be?” Lucy asked, her voice soft as she posed the question. Lily shrugged.
“You’re pretty.” she sighed, as though that was enough of an answer. Lucy laughed, hugging Lily a little tighter to her.
“Thank you, lovely.”
A blond man gently stroked his finger down Lily’s brown hair.
“You can hold her, Ben,” Gwilym laughed. His friend looked at him, face a little red and a bashful smile in place. “If she lets you.”
“Ben!” Lily shrieked in delight, pointing to the blond man who looked at her with mild shock on his face. “Drums!” Ben seemed to snap out of his trance-like state he was in and laughed, nodding and taking Lily carefully from Lucy.
“Yeah, that’s me.” Ben agreed.
“Sorry,” Y/N said apologetically. “She wanted to see who her dad worked with so we showed her photos,” she explained but Ben shook his head with a beaming grin still in place.
“She’s so sweet!” Gwilym chuckled as his friends cooing over his daughter and turned his adoring expression to his wife.
“Yeah, we like to think so,” Y/N latched onto his hand and brought it to her lips, pressing a quick kiss to his skin.
“She looks just like you,” the auburn-haired man said, staring in wonder over Ben’s arms at Lily. Lily gave a delighted giggle and reached out her hands to rest them on his cheeks.
“Joe!” Joe laughed and nodded, taking one of her little hands from his face and shaking it good-naturedly.
“It’s so nice to finally meet you,” Y/N looked away from her daughter as she realised the voice was addressing her. She smiled up at the man.
“You guys too! Gwil has not stopped talking about all of you,” she laughed, taking his outstretched hand. “I’m Y/N, by the way.”
“Rami,” the actor hesitated. “I don’t want to be rude, just… how far along are you?” He gestured to Y/N’s growing stomach. Her hand settled on it subconsciously before she replied.
“Five months now,” Y/N answered.
“And she still looks amazing,” Gwilym cut in. Y/N snorted with laughter, shaking her head lovingly at her husband and kissing his hand again.
“You have to say that - I’m carrying your child,” she pointed out. Gwilym gasped out in offence, shaking his head.
“When have I ever lied to you?” Y/N raised her eyebrows at him.
“You sure you want me to answer that in front of your friends?” Rami and Lucy, who had joined the conversation, burst out laughing at her question and Gwilym pouted at her.
“So do you know the gender yet?”
“We’re finding out at the next appointment,” Gwilym said, placing his hand on her shoulder and grinning down at her. Y/N smiled up, feelings of love flooding all her senses.
“What are you hoping for?” Rami asked.
“Lily wants a brother,” Y/N laughed and Gwilym nodded.
“Oh God, yeah, I think she’ll throw a fit if it’s a girl,” he confirmed. “I would love another girl though,” Gwilym said and Y/N nodded, leaning easily into his arm.
“Definitely,” she agreed.
“Allen!” Y/N and Gwilym’s heads both turned immediately to face their daughter at her joyous cry. They exchanged mildly amused looks as she launched herself into the unsuspecting man’s arms.
