Sitting outside on the porch I Tug the blanket closer around Alex.
He gives a small baby laugh, reaching up in the air.
"What are you trying to get Tiger Cub?" I laugh softly, kissing him on the forehead.
It still felt as if it was a dream, scared that if I got too attached that he'd go away. That this was all just a dream and when I'd wake up, Alex and Ian weren't real.
Don't think I'd ever mentioned it to anyone, that I was scared of loosing everything. Most of the time I was scared of dreaming.
Sounds so silly but it's something that's always in the back of your mind. Is everything around me just a dream? Is this really how things are? Endless questions with no answers, that how life seemed sometimes.
I pull the baby blanket Yumi made closer around him, not wanting him to get sick. Seems like you've got that mothering instinct. I smile, hearing Rory in my head.
Alex squirms slightly, he was getting fussy again. Like me, he never really liked staying still for too long. "Okay, okay." I mumble, moving him to the crook of my arm. He was still so tiny."Time for your nap anyway." I whisper, rocking him gently back and forth. Try singing to him, that might get him to go to sleep. I
bite my lip, trying to think of a song. None were coming to mind at the moment. The ones your mum use to sing you. Try that.
"We're soaring flying, there's not a star in heaven that we can't reach," I sing softly."If we're trying, yeah we're breaking free."
