ALEXANDRA

"Go on, princess." I murmured down to my daughter. She latched onto my breast immediately and began to suck as if she wouldn't be eating again for the rest of her life. It's moments like these with her that I take my time to look over her gorgeous features. More often than not, I tend to question myself over how I got so lucky to have her in my life as my daughter.

"You're hungry today aren't you, monkey?" I cooed gently, stroking my fingers against her delicate skin. She stared up at me with emerald coloured eyes shining, continuing to guzzle down her meal.

"I love you so so much, little girl. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. Mummy loves her monkey so much." I promised quietly as to not disturb her. As I continued to caress her beautiful little face, it must've tickled her because in a matter of seconds, Scarlett was smiling adorably around my breast.

"You just love to smile don't you?" I murmured. "You're just like Daddy. Always making others happy with just a little grin." I giggled, my eyes locked with my daughter's gorgeous emerald ones.

"Your Daddy loves to make other people happy, baby. When Daddy was younger, he was always making Mummy smile." I grinned at the memory, my eyes clouding up with tears as I thought back to a younger Harry and a younger me.

"Maybe you'll be like Daddy when you're older, yeah? You'll love to tell silly jokes and be quirky like Daddy. But for now, just stay Mummy's little girl." I whispered to her, laying a soft kiss on my daughter's nose.

Scarlett finished eating after a while, I positioned her on my shoulder to burp her. "Let's go with uncle Liam to the living room, yeah? Come on." I murmured after I finished burping and changing her diaper. She made little cooing noises against my shoulder as I walked out of our room.

"Look who decided to join us, lads!" Louis cheered from his sitting position on the floor.

I grinned happily. "Hello boys," I greeted cheekily. Zayn shot up from the sofa and straight towards me.

"Can I take her, Alex?" He pouted playfully. I laughed lightly, "of course you can, Zee." I chuckled warmly.

He grinned hugely, thanking me quietly before taking Scarlett into his arms.

There was a knock at the door, I immediately knew it was Sophia, so I rushed over to get it. I made sure to look behind me in case one of the boys followed, before opening the door.

"Hey you!" She squealed excitedly. I giggled cheekily, "hello, my love!" I beamed. Sophia pulled me into a warm, much needed hug.

"How've you been Alex?" She asked after we pulled away. I smiled shyly.

"I've been alright, yeah. I chuckled as Sophia flashed a an excited grin.

"I'm so happy to hear that!" She beamed, holding onto both of my hands gently. I helped her bring in her luggage, placing it in the corner of the hallway so she could take it to hers and Liam's hotel room later on.

"Come on!" She laughed pulling me in the direction of the living room. "Liam! I have a surprise for you!" I confessed when I saw the brunette.

He looked at me, clearly confused.

"Thank you?" He murmured, sounding unsure. I rolled my eyes playfully at the lad.

"It's just here in the hallway, come get it." I smirked knowingly. He stood up from the sofa and made his way into the hallway, a nervous expression written all over his face.

"Sophia!" He shouted as soon as he saw his girlfriend. She grinned cheekily.

"Hey baby." She hummed casually. I went into the living room with the rest of the lads to give them both some privacy.

"What happened?" Niall asked when he heard the slight ruckus coming from the entrance of the hotel room. "Sophia came to surprise him." I smiled kindly, sitting down next to him.

"Aw," he cooed, his blue eyes lighting up cutely. Louis was sitting on the floor with his phone in hand, typing a tad savagely.

"Easy there mate. Don't want you breaking your thumbs." I joked, to which he chuckled.

"Sorry. I was just texting Harry to let him know I was going up to the room late." He explained, now it was my turn to nod in understanding.

"What are you doing, baby girl?" Zayn laughed at my baby. Scarlett was standing on his lap, trying to grab his nose with her chubby hands, failing miserably.

"She's been doing that a lot lately. She did it to me yesterday." Niall laughed as he averted his eyes from the movie playing on the telly, to Zayn and Scarlett. I looked at my baby, with nothing but a fond expression written on my facial expression.

That little girl is my entire world.

"Hey lads!" Sophia greeted as she and Liam entered the living room.

"Soph!" They cried in unison. She giggled softly before going around giving hugs and kisses.

"You!" She squealed, pointing at Scarlett playfully. Scarlett jumped in surprise, which caused us to chuckle and coo at her adorable reaction.

"Hi baby! I missed you so much, cupcake! C'mere!" Sophia giggled, taking Scar out of Zayn's hold.

"You've gotten so big, lovely! What are we going to do? You have to stay our little girl forever!" Sophia wailed playfully, making Scarlett squeal in delight.

"You like that don't you?" Sophia grinned, kissing Scar all over her chubby face.

The lads and I watched the adorable scene play in front of us. "Pull Auntie Sophia's hair baby girl!" Liam praised mischievously. Sophia turned to look at him.

"Why don't we go and pull Uncle Liam's hair instead, baby? It's more fun than aunty Soph's. Yeah, come on." She smirked going over to sit next to Liam, and placing Scarlett on his chest.

"Go on pumpkin, pull Uncle Li's hair!" Sophia encouraged cheekily, Scarlett cooed in delight, moving up higher on Liam's chest.

"How could you betray me like that, little girl?" Liam sobbed playfully towards a giggling Scarlett as she began pulling his hair softly.

I laughed quietly at my friends and daughter's silly banter.
