Stay True

*5 years earlier*
Harry's POV
I feel Katie shake my shoulder.I open my eyes.''What?''i mumble annoyed. ''The baby...she's crying again..''she whines.

''I got her last time..''i protest.''Harry..please.'' she begs and i sigh.

I get up and walk out the bedroom door.I walk into the bedroom right beside ours.

Darcy's cries are loud. I walk to her crib and pick her up out of it. I hold her in my arms and sit in the rocking chair.

''Shh....Daddy's here Babe...don't cry..''i kiss her forehead and she slowly and softly stops crying.

She quiets down and her small body is in my arms.Her breathing steadies at a normal pace and her eyes are shut tight.

Her tiny hand holds on to my thumb and i smile at her.This is MY child.Mine..

That morning....
Katie holds the bottle in Darcy's mouth as i sit beside her with a cup of coffee. ''She cried...12 times last night.''I complain.

''Oh,hush,you only worked half of them.''she mumbles and i look at her.She's such a good mother. She knows the exact way to hold her and the perfect way to feed her and everything.

Danny says,''You think she's hard to handle now,just wait until she gets where she can talk, you'll wish she was still a few weeks old.''He smiles.

His girls are with their mom this month. Its a good thing.We all have peace and quiet, until the baby cries.

Yesterday I made Trey change her diaper and he almost threw up his lunch. Its a hard task. Raising a baby. Its too hard. But i will make it.

The simple sound of her breathing soothes me.The simple look she gives me makes me feel like I was put on earth to do something other than just be here.

Darcy and Katie are my hold world.And i would die for them. I would do anything to keep my girls safe.

And I will have a good job.i will make enough money. I will buy us our own little house. i will.I swear 'til i die. If i don't by then,then i would just have to die.
