"Look at her, she's so cute, chubby and soft, sleeping so sweetly, I really want to nibble on her." Adrian, nearly unable to resist touching her with his finger, bent over the bundled-up, straight-lined eyed and mouthed baby in deep slumber. Of course, he was immediately interrupted by Julia, who had just become a mother.
"Don't touch her, Ed, she's sleeping," Julia whispered sharply from her side, feeling no discomfort at all with her new motherhood role.
"Alright, alright," Adrian said reluctantly as he propped himself up. Seeing him like this, Small Emma covered her mouth and giggled, seemingly enjoying the sight of his deflated expression.
"You're quite pleased with yourself, are you?" He turned to her and narrowed his eyes as if transferring the frustration he got from Julia onto her.
Unfortunately for him, Small Emma was well-practiced in these situations. She immediately made a funny face and slid over to the baby, then changed the subject, "She's so tiny, can I hold her?"
