《Flatmates》49
Advertisement
Carefully placing a sleeping Arlo into his Moses basket that I had moved to the dining room, I gently kissed his forehead before grabbing the massive stack of order sheets and address labels. The first drop of the reopening had fully sold out, and I desperately needed to get the orders shipped. Harry was at a meeting for his new venture - Kick Town, Freezy was up in Scotland visiting his mum and Lux had gone away for the week with friends.
It was strange having the flat to myself with Arlo, but I took full advantage of his naps to get these orders packaged and sent out.
Ethan: Hey you, what you up to?
Jess: Just packaging orders whilst Arlo sleeps, you?
Ethan: Fancy some company?
Jess: Go for it!
Ethan arrived about twenty minutes later, letting himself in through the unlocked front door and finding me in a pile of hoodies on the dining room floor.
We chatted for a while before Arlo woke from his nap, Ethan jumping up and picking him straight up, rocking him and pacing to soothe his crying.
'I think he's hungry' I said, standing to head to the kitchen and make a bottle.
'Sit, I got this' Ethan smiled as he headed out of the door with Arlo still in his arms.

'Hey beautiful, how long have you been in here?' Harrys head pops around the dining room door somewhere around 7pm.
'Umm, around 9am?' I yawned, stretching my legs out in front of me.
'Right, you go take a nice hot bath and order something for dinner. I can do this' Harry takes both of my hands in his, gently pulling me up from the floor and into his arms. Stoking my hair and rubbing my back before gently pulling away and pushing me in the direction of the door. 'Go!'

I started running my bath, adding a bath bomb and grabbing a towel and PJs from the bedroom. When I returned to check on my bath, there was a hot cup of coffee sat on the side of the bath. Harry was definitely a keeper!
Once submerged under the bubbles, I ordered Sushi for the two of us before taking full advantage of a hot coffee and five minutes to myself.
When I returned to the dining room after my bath Harry and Arlo were nowhere to be seen, but the last of the parcels had been finished and moved to the hallway ready for the courier in the morning. I headed through to the living room to find Harry curled up on the sofa with Arlo in his arms, candles lit on the coffee table and a bottle of wine with two glasses sat beside them.
The sushi soon arrived, so Harry went and put Arlo down in his crib in the bedroom, turning on the baby monitor and going into the kitchen to plate up the dinner.
We just sat and watched some rubbish TV, drank wine and ate, and it was blissful. Living with two guys and having a baby meant that moments like these were few and far between, but that just meant that we truly enjoyed these moments when they did crop up.
'Hey I was thinking, we should take advantage of your time off between drops on the website. How about we disappear off to Guernsey for a few days? I know my family would love to see Arlo again, and we could do with some proper family time.'
'You know what Harry? That sounds absolutely perfect. Lets do it!'
