Book 3 Chapter 41.
Harmony POV.
God, I'm sobbing like a baby. This is not the first time Melody has called me mommy, but it always brings tears to my eyes. I really need to get a grip on my emotions.
"I'm sorry mommy, I didn't mean it. You can go wherever you want. I'm sorry." Oh, my heart. I pull Melody up onto my lap and kiss her all over her face, laughing as I do.
"Oh baby, no, you didn't upset me. These are happy tears. Every time you call me mommy, I just get so happy that I cry. You didn't do anything wrong, my sweet girl. I love you." I hug her and she hugs me back. I look around the room and everyone is staring at us with smiles on their faces. I see some of the members wiping their eyes.
God, we are all emotional right now. There must be something in the air.
"I'm sorry mommy, I love you too." Well, that does it and we are both crying. Mav is rubbing my back as I just hold my precious little girl. God, I'm starting to sound like Gollum.
"Melly, there is something that came for you today while you were at school. I don't know who it's from but it arrived here before. Do you want to see it?" I ask her and she nods her head before I gently wipe her tears away and I chuckle at as she does the same to me.
"No more tears, mommy. I'm not going anywhere. You are my mommy and I won't let anything happen to you." I take a few deep breaths and nod my head at her words. God, could this girl get any cuter?
I kiss her and give her a big squeeze before I tickle her, and she squeals with laughter.
"Stop, mommy, stop, I'm going to pee." I stop instantly and she chuckles and tries to tickle me and I laugh, feigning to get her to stop, but I don't want her to. She is mine, just like her daddy is.
"Ok, ok, come on let's see what it is shall we?" I ask her and she smiles at me, excitement radiating from her little body. Mav places her on her feet and I stand, offering my hand to her and she takes it.
The members all smile and wink. Some of the ole lady's comment on how cute we both look, and I wink at them.
I see Michelle, and she nods once at me and stands.
"Oh Melly, could you help Hound one second with the boys? They are being rascals." She says and Melody instantly goes into protector mode and nods her head.
"Come on mommy, I need to tell them off. They are being bad again." She says tugging me to the other side of the clubhouse as I chuckle as she storms to where the boys are in fact being little monsters for Hound.
"Oi, stop it. Johnny, stop being a big meany to James, and James stop being a big meany to your daddy." Members chuckle, commenting that whoever will be her boyfriend better not hurt her. I ignore them and look at the twins and Hound as he winks at me.
"Oh thank you Melly, what will do with them?" Michelle comes back carrying the wrapped gift. I look at Melody, and her eyes widen and light up. She looks at me and I squat to her level. Mav behind me to steady me.
"That came today. I wonder who it's from?" I say, pretending to not know when she is off. Mav helps me stand as Melody looks at the bear and then at the picture. We walk closer to her and she is looking confused.
"Mommy, daddy, why is there a picture of an alien?" She asks and I burst out laughing as I help her unwrap the cellophane and pluck the photo frame out.
"This is not an alien," I say, stifling a laugh as she looks from me with a confused look before looking at the picture.
"That Melody is your little sister or brother. They brought you a present. See." I say to her and she takes the picture very gently and looks at it.
"Ohhh, wow. I can see the head, arms, legs. Wow." She says in awe, and I smile at her as Mav wraps his arm around my shoulders and kisses my head again.
"The teddy bear has a message. Can you read it?" I ask her as she places the picture down gently and lifts the brown fluffy bear out of the basket. She walks to a chair and sits down and looks the bear over before she sees the feet.
We follow her, and Michelle is filming this to send to my momma. I know she would have loved to have been here if she wasn't in a different country fighting the auctions. This way she can have this memory.
"What does it say Melly?" Mav asks her, and she looks at her daddy with tears streaming down her face. It is then that I see my dads smiling, watching all of this unfold. As well as the club. Everyone is silent, waiting for her to read the words.noveldrama
"To the best big sister, I can't wait to meet you. Kiss kiss." She says and I smile at her and she jumps down and walks to me and hugs my legs before she lifts my top and kisses my belly.
"Thank you baby sister, I love my present and don't worry, I will buy you lots of presents. I love you." She kisses my belly again and I feel my heart clench at her words. Not out of sadness, but out of pure unbridled love that this girl who had a shitty beginning is so caring, loving and just amazing.
"Mommy when I see her?" Melody asks me and I run my fingers through her long black hair as she looks up at me with her silver-grey eyes.
"When we next go to the hospital, you can come and see the baby. Besides, I think daddy will need help with setting up the nursery and finding all the good toys for the baby. So, would you like to help with all that?" I ask her and she smiles up at me and nods her head before she jumps and I catch her, causing Mav and Hound to grab me.
"Yes, I want to help. I will be the best big sister in the whole wide world." She makes the gesture with her arms wide as I hold her against me and I chuckle.
"Oh, I know you will. Why don't you go and find Harry and show him your present and show him the picture of the baby?" I say to her and she nods her head and wiggles to be put down. She grabs the bear, lifting it and placing it on her hip, and grabs the photo frame and walks off to find Harry. Johnny and James behind her.
"She will be a wonderful sister. She is already a mother hen and keeps the tiny terrors in their place. If we aren't careful, I have a feeling we will be family in other ways when they are older." Michelle says and I smile, knowing what she means.
Johnny and James are very protective of Melody, and I think their friendship could blossom into something more. I look at Mav and he and Hound are glaring at each other. Oh, for fuck's sake. I roll my eyes as I slap Mav on his chest,
"Knock it off, they are still kids and you never know we could be wrong." I say to him and he relaxes. Yeah, I doubt that. A mother knows and me and Michelle know how it could end up.
I wink at Michelle and she makes the lock gesture over her mouth and I do the same. One day we will know for sure, but while they are little, we can watch this from a distance. You never know what the future holds.
All that matters to me is that those kids will be friends for a long time. They are inseparable, and I know the twins will always protect Melody. The thing is, she doesn't need it; she is more than capable of holding her own if and when she needs to.
I only hope that as they get older, they don't hurt her heart. Like every man here, the twins will grow up to be heartbreakers. But so will Melody. But I'm getting ahead of myself. They are still small and anything can happen as they grow.
