Demi POV
A couple of hours later we finally arrive home, it's half 7 and I am worn out, never mind ebony.
We walk in the house and ebony goes and walks into the living room.
I go to get her a smoothie, I know she needs a proper meal for tea but we can start tomorrow, I'm not forcing her tonight she's been through enough today.
I walk back into the lounge to find ebby sat on the couch staring blankly at the wall in front of her.
"Here you go baby" I say passing her the bottle.
She shakes her head at me
"Ebony, I'm not making you eat dinner so drink this please"
I have to be firm with her, I hate being strict with her because I just want to cuddle and baby her all the time but she needs to get better.
"Good girl" I say as she reluctantly takes the bottle. I switch the Tv on and go to join ebony on the couch.
She comes closer to me and looks at me.
I nod my head at her, I know what she wants to do.
She climbs onto my lap and I hold her in my arms like she's a little baby.
"Sweetie, you know you don't have to ask for permission to come for cuddles"
"Really?" She asks surprised
"Really" I smile down at her
Fifteen minutes later and ebony is struggling to finish the smoothie.
"It's ok sweetheart, you don't have to finish it tonight"
She looks relieved and hands me her bottle
"Right misses, bedtime" I say, standing up and placing ebony onto the floor
"No!" She shouts
"Ebony, you need to go to bed"
"Mummy no"
she starts crying and is having what I can only describe as a tantrum, she's never been like this with me before.
"Ebony, calm down. Mummy needs you to be a good girl and get some rest"
"No i don't need rest"
"Sweetheart you're six and you've have had a very traumatic day. We have a busy day tomorrow and you need your rest"
"I can't though mummy"
Her anger has subsided but she's still crying hard.
"Hey,hey ebby, mummy isn't going to leave you. You proved to yourself last night you can do this."
"Your bed?"
"Yeah, mummy's bed"
She holds her arms up to me and I automatically go to pick her up, I carry her into my room and place her on my bed before going to get her pyjamas.
I help her get changed, she can deny it all she likes, I know she's exhausted.
Within minutes of me tucking her in bed she's asleep.
I go back downstairs and collapse onto my couch, what a day I think to myself. I pick up my phone and call Marissa, I need to fill her in before she here's half a story from the media.
It's about 3 am when I'm woken by ebony screaming in the bed next to me.
"Shhh ebony. Momma's here" I walk round to the other side of my bed and pick her up. I cradle her in my arms like a baby.
Surprisingly she quickly calms down, she's still silently crying but she's calm.
I walk over to my bay widow and sit down with ebony, it's a clear sky so all the stars are out, it's so pretty.
Within minutes ebony is back asleep, I place her down and get back in bed, hoping she won't wake up again until morning.
