Taylor's POV
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OyD5NJuyC
"I love you mon amour" Jay whispers kissing my neck before he leaves, the faint smell of his cologne fills my nostrils as I realise that he has had a shower and gotten ready and I have barely opened my eyes. The fire roars at the end of the bed and I realise that he has got it going for me before he leaves. I gaze over at Henry in his crib and smile. The ebony oak crib had already been assembled when we arrived and he has slept heavily all night long.

"I love you" I say stretching out and moving the sheets out of the way. Jay gasps and I look up at his expression as he takes in my naked form before his very eyes. The sheets crumpled around me and the snow falling outside.

"Just quickly" I beg him pulling his hips towards me. He chuckles and we spend thirty to forty five minutes locked in each others arms, the scent of fried eggs and onions and bacon wafts up and Rachel can be heard calling that they are leaving.

"I'll bring you up some bacon and toast" he whispers to me before he steps out of the master suite. The door closes and I bury my head back down in the covers, it's still dark outside and Henry's soft snores make me feel calm and relaxed.

"Taylor" I hear a soft whisper at the door, two light taps as I keep my eyes tightly shut, clasping onto my waist and the little bump ignoring my intruder.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYRaNGTdkn
"Tay" he says more insistently.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIhUZ3KnUQ
"Mhm did you bring bacon" I say imagining Jay sweeping in the room with toast and bacon and eggs.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5PwgYJju4
"No, I can get you some" he laughs and I realise that Matthew is standing by the oak doors and not Jay. I glance at the alarm clock and realise it's half past nine.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0kUdKsvT4
"Henry" I gasp as he shh's me and pushes the door closed hovering over the large sheepskin rug and eyeing the crib.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4ZJED1neW
"Henry is fine and snoring" he whispers eyeing him as his chest rises and falls in a slumber.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mvzIS5NYP
"Lazy baby" he chuckles and I smile rolling over facing him and making sure the cover is tucked around my body.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwY6EVcpcy
"You're literally ready and I'm sleeping" I smile over at him wearing a white shirt the collar popping out of a forest green jumper. Chinos that are a caramel colour and his hair bouncy and curly.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgElJKdD26T
"It's all good Tay, I just thought we could use the car and drive out to the town, Chamonix has some nice touristy places" he explains and I nod smiling up at him.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFVYmGpnne
"Lord" he whispers slowly as I watch him closely, his expression turns to a slow smile and I chuckle.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhBRBpe4Ve
"What" I say defensively smirking.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF4L2CHJF9
"Watching you wake up, how your eyes get all cute and you smile with your hair all bunched up..." he begins kneeling before me and looking into my eyes. Rested on his haunches as he strokes one of my curls back.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7jyp5vDIy
"Well let's just say it reminds me of a lot" he whispers, pushing his own brunette curls back.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzVZzU7LBA
"Now I'm going to fry up that bacon and come and serve you it in bed" he smiles standing up again as my eyes travel up to his grin.

Once the door clicks shut again, I pull myself out from the sheets and pace past the open fire into the en-suite. Leaving the door open so that I can hear Henry when he arises. The water crashes down onto my bare skin and I let it massage my lower back.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh9WIeq6Vt
Henry gargles in his crib and instead of falling out of the shower dripping wet, shuffling past the hot towel rack and running to him, I hear Matthew placate him. Henry lets out a few little shrieks of excitement and I smile washing the soap out of my hair.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBOqu6Glvw
Sticking to my usual routine and applying body oil to my skin, I then wrap myself in a towel and use the attached blow dryer on my hair. Large bouncy curls fall past my shoulders and I mop up the excess water from the grey marble floor. Smiling as I look out of the sash window at the layers of white snow imagining Jay in a cable car with Ross. Enjoying the views and hopefully taking pictures.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0w2kWZeLh
"He's hungry" Matthew smiles down at Henry finishing his bottle as he sits in the window seat. A backdrop of snow settling behind them just outside, glistening white like a Christmas card. Matthew's eyes flick up to me and he smiles, his eyes going wide before he recovers.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSDLVUTHuX
"Bacons on the side, I made you pancakes too" he whispers cradling Henry.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESxgiGGXCo
"Thank you Matthew" I smile perching on the side of the bed and tucking into the pancakes.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJOHPLdBFq
"Ffrieees" Henry garbles and we both laugh. Henry enjoys his food and fries are his favourite.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6ZOZUMDuJ
"Looks like Henry would like to have fries for lunch" Matthew giggles holding him close as he kicks his legs excitedly.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPBP6i5BMO
"Fries it is" I smirk pulling off a wedge of the pancake and passing it to Henry who grasps it and busies himself gnawing at it.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlpIAXuXFr
Matthew faces the window as I stand by the oak dresser and matching wardrobe looking over my clothes. I opt for a wool knit dress in pale blue, some tights and boots. I will team it with my wool coat and a scarf with a matching beanie hat. Flicking my hair over my shoulders as I tap Matthew on his shoulder and he turns to face me, his eyes dropping over my outfit, before he stares into my eyes. It's undeniably cute that he has both cooked me breakfast and allowed me my shower in complete privacy. Not to mention making sure I could change in peace.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9onUDDgZuB
"You look ugh.." he begins as I smile.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0IbBM670B
"Beautiful" he finishes before his cheeks glow pink and I take Henry from his arms. Placing him down on the sheepskin rug and dressing him. Of course he rolls away instantly intent on crawling away from me. We all giggle and Matthew comes to sit next to us on the rug with a nappy. Having finally managed to pin the wriggly baby down I get a nappy on him and he thrashes his legs around excitedly.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3BOgqipba
"Matthew can you pass me that wool sleep suit and a vest, oh some warm socks" I say as he smiles over at me, cheeks red and blushed.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9ikmx9Ydo
"Mmma-uoo" Henry garbles and we both stare at him utterly shocked.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJq5qTPA3V
"Yes baby that's Matthew" I say stroking Henry's face as he squeals happily.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wGaUar2zg
"Matthew he said your name!" I exclaim as Matthew nods wiping his eyes and smiling down at Henry.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvoPpz5n1J
"Yes Henry I love you so much" he tells him and my heart skips a beat. We place a vest on Henry and his knitted pale grey sleep suit before he manages to crawl away. I pack a day bag with essentials like wipes and nappies, extra clothes and blankets. We even pop in a few toys and trains that Henry is now enjoying.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHiCwGiV4M
Matthew carries Henry into his chest as we descend down the two flights of steps to the large living area. The fire has died down and I pace over to the exposed brick kitchen. Inspecting the gas stove and deciding that I'd love to cook on it later on. Having made two hot chocolates and packed a few purées for Henry he places the pushchair with the thick footmuff in the car and we trudge out into the snow.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB7sU0M4S4
I place Henry in the car seat, out of the biting cold, placing a large wool blanket over him as he looks out amazed by the white snowy landscape. His little beanie on his head as he eyes me before I check all of the belts and shut the rear door. Darting around the car to jump in the passenger side as Matthew climbs in the drivers side.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkB5mwhAQB
“Prêt chéri?” Matthew turns to me with a keen smile as I giggle.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbwG3dsskK
“Meaning?” I laugh, charmed.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqmU3erLrU
“Ready darling?” He whispers eyeing me before he turns the car on and reverses out into the wilderness.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYzgFreYNU
“Thank you” I whisper to him and he looks down at me curiously.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrzpmUtDFt
“For letting me get ready and for you know the day trip” I tell him as his face softens. It means a great deal for a new mom to be able to spend time getting ready without having to worry about the baby. I feel put together and ready for our day out rather than rushed.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfes5qwief
“No problem, anytime” he says easily, driving through the thick white snow.
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jOkTW7xI9
“Honestly I would literally grab a flight from anywhere in the world just to be with you” he laughs and I smile over at him, watching him brush his brunette locks back and focusing on the road ahead. I rest my head back on the seats and he rests his palm on my knee as Henry sleeps in the car.
