What Now? (Book 2) [l. hemmings]

Chapter 31

Victoria's P.O.V.

When I wake up, Luke is already awake and changed.

"Luke?" I say.

"Yea, Vic?" He questions.

"Did you leave and come back already?" I ask.

"Yea, if we're going back to the hospital I figured might as well be ready for when your lazy ass decided to wake up." He smirks.

"I am definitely not the lazy one of the two of us." I chuckle.

"Who's the one still in bed? That's what I thought." He laughs.

"Shut up and come here." I tell him.

He continues laughing as he walks over and I put my hands out.

"Help me.." I whine.

"Oh yea. I'm definitely the lazy one." He says and grabs my hands.

"Be quiet." I giggle.

He pulls me up and I press my lips to his.

"Now hurry up." He urges.

"Wow you're excited to see the baby." I chuckle.

"Maybe I am." He replies.

"Let me get ready." I mutter, walking off.

-

"Okay, come on." I say.

"Do we get to go see Zoe now?" He asks with a smile.

I chuckle, "Yes we can go to the hospital now and you can see Zoe."

When we finally get to the hospital and we head up to Jess' room.

I let go of Luke's hand to lightly knock on the door and open it, slowly walking into the room.

Calum is asleep on one of the chairs and Jess is sitting on the bed with Zoe in her arms.

"Hey guys." Jess softly speaks.

Luke and I walk over to Jess and Zoe.

"Here do you want to take her?" Jess asks me.

I nod as she passes her daughter over to me.

Zoe squirms in my arms and I smile. A little noise escapes her lips and Luke chuckles from beside me.

I hear something crash to the floor and I look up to see Jess laughing, as she threw something at Calum to wake him up.

"Shit Jess you couldn't have woken me up normally?" Calum groggily says.

"Sorry, here." She pauses, "Calum, babe, there's people here get up."

"Well it doesn't matter now, I'm awake." He chuckles.

Zoe moves in my arms again and I can't help but smile at the adorable baby.

"When do you guys get to leave this place?" I ask.

"Two days I think." Jess replies.

Luke comes over to me and I look up at him.

"You want her now don't you?" I question.

He nods and I chuckle.

I hand him the baby and a smile stretches across his face.

"Be careful I don't know if you should be trusted with her." I tell him.

"Hey, I'm fine." He replies.

He walks to the other side of the room and talks to Calum so I pull a chair next to Jess.
