Noah pov:
I wake up to Charli screaming playfully i yawn and pick up my phone i check the time and it's 10:30 am how do we wake up so late even after a early night I sigh looking down at Dixie I didn't want to wake her but I was bored just sat around "morning baby" I whispered in her ear "ugh" she groans Cleary not ready to wake up "it's morning you know" "mhm" she says pulling the duvet closer to her "well why don't we get up" "mm-mm 5 more minutes" "but" how could I say no to her I mean look at her she's so cute without even trying "fine" I say wrapping my hands around her and rubbing her back I guess we sleeping for a little longer

Dixie pov:
I wake up to Noah's alarm, I sit up and turn it of I lay back down on Noah's chest putting my hand on his cheek brushing my thumb to either side I lay and look at him i love him so much I really do this man is my world, he slowly opens his eyes and stretches I move of his chest "heyyyy where are you going your keeping me warm" he groans "you wanted to get up an hour ago" "well I don't now" he says giving me petty lip I kiss him and hand him some sweats and a shirt, I look over to see chase and Charli in the pool I'm glad they worked things out until I hear a loud bang come from upstairs i look at Noah and run upstairs i see my mom getting boxes from the loft "thank god" I say under my breath "what are you doing mom" "going through dads old things" "would you like some help miss damelio" Noah says putting his shirt on "yes please and call me Heidi" Noah Carries some boxes down and we take them all into my moms room, my mom sits and just stares at the boxes "you ok mom" "yep just didn't think I'd be doing this" I didn't know what to say I mean what was I supposed to say she lost her husband the love of her life, she starts going through his things until she pulls out a family picture of us when we were all so little "wow time really flies" she blows the dust of the pic and puts it on her nightstand I look at Noah he gives me a smile and we help go through my dads old things "hey guys what's all this" Charli and chase walk in "oh we are going through dads old things" I pull out my dads favourite t-shirt and I couldn't help but burst into tears I drop the shirt and walk out "I'll go see her"

Noah pov:
I walk out and go to her room, "Dix you in here" I say walking in not seeing anyone, I hear sobs coming from the restroom I sit again the door I didn't bother to try it incase she wanted some space "Dix you in there" "mhm" I hear her as she sniffles "N-Noah I need you" as soon as I heard those words I stood up and rushed into the restroom I go over to her and sit next to her until she climbs in my lap and digs her head in my chest and cries "I'm here bub" "I-I miss him" I rock her back and forth like a baby "I know i know" Dixie's mental health hasn't been the best lately, I continue to rock her back and forth for around 10 minutes until her breathing starts to get heavy "breathe baby" she sobs into my chest gripping on to me like it was her last time touching me, i kiss her head and carry her Into the bedroom I get into bed with her still in my chest crying "w-why did he have to l-leave" my heart shattered "I don't know but he's watching over you I promise" I kiss her head as she continues to sob, after around 1 hour of sobbing into my chest she is asleep, she's mentally exhausted and one thing that worries me is that Dixie cries until her body shuts down and has no energy for anything i didn't want her to be like that it's not good for her, I pull the blanket over us as I slowly lay down she pulls onto my shirt "I'm not going anywhere" I whisper to her "hey how is she" Charli says peeking her head through the door "you can come in you know and she's sleeping right now" "let me guess cried herself to sleep" "yeh" Charli sighs and looks at Dixie and then to the floor "but don't worry char I'll look after her i promise" "I'm worried about her Noah" "I promise I'll do whatever it takes to help her through it" she smiles and leaves the room, after around 10 Minutes of sitting in silence Dixie wakes up with her mascara everywhere I look down at her to see tears streaming down her cheeks once again "sh sh" "I need him back" she starts to sob again Charli comes back into the room and comes over and hugs Dixie, I rub Dixie's back to let her know I'm still here she lifts up and hugs Charli back "I love you Dix" "i-I love you more char" Charli leaves the room and Dixie crawls back into my lap digs her head in my chest and cries "I love you baby" "I love you more" she says getting a full sentence out I kiss her head and we both slowly drift back of to sleep hopefully when we wake up she's ok and forgets this happened because I know she will feel embarrassed about this I don't know why she feels like that after crying but she does
