"What if she doesn't like me? What if we suck at parenting? I should have let her stay with mum until she was older." Harry rambled on as he pulled on his hair.

We had been married for a couple of months now and Hazel had been living with Anne for those two months. First it was so we could have our honeymoon without worrying about her but when we got back, she suggested that she would keep her for a little while longer just to give us time to ready ourselves a bit about parenting.

I was really grateful because even though I had accepted Hazel as Harry's daughter, thereby being mine too. I still needed a little time to think about it and have reality set in that I was a parent.

That Harry and I had a little girl looking up to us and that the way Hazel turned out to be would depend on how well or badly we brought her up.

"Calm down. You are not making my case easier here. I'm equally freaking out but you don't see me panicking, do ya?" I said to Harry who stopped his ranting and looked at me.

Hazel was on her way with her grandmother and would arrive soon but all Harry did was worry.
We had asked her a few days prior if she could bring her and told her that we were ready to raise her.

"You are freaking out too? You seem so calm." Harry looked amused and I cracked a smile.

"I mean yeah, this is real. We are gonna spend the rest of our lives with her, not just how we would vist her. I'm worried too but just be positive, yeah? Besides, we can't both be worry freaks." I explained and Harry wrapped his arms around my waist from behind seeing as I was finishing up the cooking.

"I love you so much, baby. Thank you for everything." He said and buried his face in the crook of my neck, tickling me with his hot breath.

"I love you too." I smiled.

"Do you think we'll suck as parents?" Harry asked me after he'd unwrapped his arms from me and was now leaning on the counter next to me so that he could look at my face.

I put on the oven mitt and took out the pancakes after the time was up. Then I turned to him.

"I don't know, babe. But even if we do, it won't matter because we'll suck together. But we'll try our best." Instead of saying anything after that, Harry hugged me tightly and then pressed his lips on my lips without pulling off from the hug.

Harry and I set the dining table while the pancakes cooled.

When they had cooled, we decorated the desert and as soon as we were done, the door bell rang.

Harry and I looked at each other then we took deep breaths and went to open the door.

That night after Anne had gone back to hers, Harry and I seemed to get along with baby Hazel. But that all changed when it was time to put her down to sleep. Harry offered to give her a bath because I had fed her.

And after she'd bathed and been dressed in her little pink night onesie, Harry brought her to the kitchen where I had just finished cleaning up.

"Babe, she's ready to go to bed, would you like to come say goodnight?" He looked at me and back at Hazel who looked between wanting to smile and cry.

"Perfect timing because I'm done here." I said washed my hands then Harry and our baby led the way upstairs and to the nursery.

Harry placed her in her cot and kissed her forehead. I went forward and kissed her too then I sat down in the chair next to the cot and picked a book.
