MY LIL PEACH SHES ADORABLE HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LOVE

holy fuck vivi shes such a cute kid

*****

Viviana finished doing Eiley's hair and looked at her, "You are such a beautiful young lady!" She smiled, kissing her forehead. "Are you excited for today?! It's your birthday!!" Eiley clapped her hands, smiling all cute at Vivi. Vivi lifted her off the counter and set her on the ground, "Why don't you go show daddy your outfit? He's gonna be so happy!" Vivi helped Eiley out of the bathroom and Eiley toddled her way into the bedroom.

Christian looked up from his phone when he saw something out of the corner of his eye. He instantly got the biggest smile on his face, "Eiley Rose! Look at you!" He got up and picked her up, kissing her cheek several times. "You got your big bow in and you look so pretty!"

Eiley patted the bow on her headband, "Dada," She just started babbling words, some in which Christian could understand what she was trying to say.

"Yeah, your bow! It matches your outfit and everything! Momma dressed you very nice today." He smiled at Vivi, "It honestly took me back that she walked in her by herself, I always forget that she can walk now." Christian chuckled, setting Eiley back down who just whined, holding her arms up to be held again. He picked her back up, resting her on his hip.

Vivi walked into the bathroom to finish getting ready. She turned on her curling iron and Christian sat Eiley in her room as she played with her toys. He walked into the bathroom, wrapping his arms around Vivi from behind and kissed her cheek. "Hi, pretty lady.." He said, softly and kissed on her neck.

Viviana moved his head, giggling, "Baby, I'm getting ready! I don't want to burn you with the curling iron.." She set it down, looking back at him. "Are you gonna get ready soon?"

Christian nodded, "Yeah, just taking my sweet time." He laughed, "Eiley's in her room playing with her dolls. I wanted to come say hi to my beautiful fiance." He turned her around and kissed her.

She pulled away from the kiss, turning back around to continue curling her hair, "Well, my parents will be here in an hour, and your mom's flight lands in two hours. So you need to get ready so you can go pick up your siblings and mom.."

"My mom's renting a car, babygirl. I don't have to worry about going to pick her up. They're landing, then going to the hotel, and then coming here." Christian told her, keeping his arms around her as he watched her curl her hair.

"Okay, my mom and dad are coming in an hour, so I want you dressed and ready, please?" Vivi smiled at him through the mirror. Christian sighed and turned around, walking into the bedroom to get ready. Viviana finished curling her hair and changed into a cute sundress, walking out into Eiley's room. "Hi, sweetie!" She picked her up, "Nana and papa are gonna be here soon!"

Eiley smiled at Vivi, "Nana, Papa?" She said, playing with her bow.

"Yeah! Nana and papa! They're so excited to see you!" Vivi kissed her cheek and walked into the living room. "You look so cute, I can't get over it! You're the prettiest girl in the world!" She kissed Eiley's cheek several times, causing Eiley to let out a squeal followed by some giggles.

Christian walked out wearing a pair of jeans and a casual button up shirt, something he usually would wear out. "This look okay?" He asked Vivi as she turned around and smiled at him.

Vivi walked to him, "You look handsome.." She told him, fixing his collar.

"You look really good.." He said, eyeing Vivi up and down. She blushed, hitting his arm playfully. "What? I'm telling the truth!" Christian stated, Vivi just smiled, shaking her head and walked away but was stopped by Christian grabbing her free arm and pulled her back, kissing her.

Eiley stuck out her tongue, trying to raspberry. "Dada! Mama! No!" Eiley put her hand on Christian's cheek, pushing him away.

The two laughed as Eiley shook her head. "What? Daddy was just giving me a kiss like how we give you kisses!" She kissed Eiley's forehead, "See? Like that but on the lips!" She pecked Eiley's lips and she wiped her lips.

"No, momma!" Eiley wiped her mouth again. Christian laughed, taking Eiley from Vivi's arms.

"Am I not allowed to kiss momma?" Christian asked Eiley, fixing her bow and her necklace. "I love kissing your momma, that's how we show that we love each other. Just like how we give you hugs and kisses to show how much we love you!" He poked her tummy, causing her to giggle and grab his finger.

***

During Eiley's party, she was getting all the attention from Viviana and Christian's families. This was the first time Christian's brothers were meeting her, and Eiley had quickly fell in love with Cameron and Collin.

Viviana was pouring herself a glass of wine, looking over as she saw Christian walk into the kitchen. "Hey, cutie." She said, smiling at him.

Christian walked up to her, wrapping his arms around her, "Hi babygirl." He said, kissing her forehead. "How's everything?"

"Good. Eiley loves your brothers," She laughed, "And she loves the attention from everyone." She looked up at him, setting her glass of wine down on the counter. "You doing okay?" She asked him, leaning up to peck his lips.

He nodded, "Yeah, baby, I'm fine. You did an amazing job planning this all out and getting everything together.." Christian said, "And you look so so beautiful." He moved his hands, grabbing her ass. Vivi blushed, and looked up at him. "Did I do something wrong?"

She shook her head, "No, just didn't expect that. Especially in front of our families." Vivi giggled, moving Christian's hands, "That's for later." She winked and walked into the living room, going to sit by her mom. Christian followed behind, sitting on the other couch.

"Eiley definitely has both of your personalities." Alecia laughed, "She is full of energy."

"Yeah, when she wakes up in the morning, she makes sure we get up too. Even if it's 7 in the morning, until one of us goes to get her, she's either yelling momma or dada really loud and bouncing in her crib." Viviana said, letting out a chuckle. "She has gotten out of her crib a couple of times and walked into our room and usually is on Christians side so she hits his head until he wakes up."

Christian smiles, shaking his head, "She does it even when I'm laying on the couch or just sitting. She likes to come up and hit my leg for attention. Eiley definitely loves the attention, gets it from her mom.." Christian smirked over at Vivi.

Viviana gasped, "Hey! You beg for attention too! You shouldn't have to, you're one of the hottest baseball players in the league." She shrugged, "But you're engaged, so ladies can't have you."

Alecia smiles, "I almost forgot about that! Let me see the ring!" Vivi held her hand out to show off her ring, "Christian! This is a beautiful ring, and you didn't even need my help!"

Christian rolled his eyes, "I have taste in jewelry. She deserves the best, I'm gonna give her the best." Vivi smiles, walking over and kissed him before sitting next to him. Eiley ran over to Christian and hit his leg.

"Dada! Nummy.." She kept hitting his leg until he picked her up. "Nummy!" She pointed over at the cake.

"Ready for birthday cake?" He kissed her cheek and everyone walked into the kitchen. Christian sat Eiley in her high chair and she clapped.

They all sang happy birthday and Eiley got her face messy with cake, giggling as she did so.

Vivi went over by Christian and wrapped her arms around his side, looking up at him. "We've done good."

He looked down at her, nodding. "We got a really great kid, baby." He kissed her temple, "And she has a beautiful, amazing momma."

Vivi giggled, puckering her lips for Christian to kiss. He kissed her, softly and then pulled away. "And she has an amazing, handsome daddy." She smiled at him. "Proud of us and all we've overcome." And she meant it. Through all their troubles, somehow, they found their way back to one another and welcomed a beautiful daughter into the world. All they could ask for and more.
