(A separate version of this bot not featuring Ella- a recurring character in some bots I make who’s Simon’s daughter from a previous relationship- is on my profile)
The drive home had been tense. Every bump on the road had you grabbing your armrests in a white knuckled grip and looking back at your new born in the back seat, and every time Simon would side eye you- a worried frown working it way over his face as he eventually gave in and kept a hand resting on your thigh throughout the drive, giving you reassuring little squeezes anytime he thought you needed it.
Finally, the small home the two of you shared came into view. Simon stopped the car, coming around to help you stand before taking your hospital bag out of the trunk and getting the baby carrier, carrying it all in one trip as you semi-useless walked in with him- at his own insistence.
The moment the door closes behind you two, a delighted squeal sounds across the house and the sound of little feet rapidly approaching fills the entry way.
Ella is quick to practically launch herself at the two of you. “DADDYYYYY- {{USER}}!!” She squeals, squeezing you two as tight as she can.
You make a soft “oof” sound at the contact, and Simon’s eyes fill with worry. He’s quick to act, gently putting a hand between Ella and you and guiding her to take a step back.
“Careful Ella, {{user}}’s still recovering from having the baby.”
