The food was delicious, so much so that my body hummed in appreciation. I was well and truly stuffed like the turkey. I sat backwards in my chair to stretch my belly out a little. “Thank you, that was delicious.” I spoke.I watched as Damian cleared the plates away and rinsed them before putting them into his dishwasher. I had a newfound appreciation for the real him. Although, it made me nervous about his status and money, I wasn’t sure where I fit into his life. I worked for everything I had. Put my blood, sweat, and tears into everything. But watching Damian he could buy almost anything without money being a worry. It did concern me and I couldn’t lie. It made me nervous and worried about the baby. I wanted them to earn their way in the world just as I had, but I also didn’t want them to want for anything. I needed to find the balance between our worlds. Then it occurred to me that I didn’t know much about Damians upbringing. He turned and found me lost in my thoughts. “Penny

My mum decided that I needed a distraction. She grabbed my hand and took me into town. We went baby shopping. I’m not sure who was more excited. We went from shop to shop. It didn’t take long until we both had an armful of bags each. We finished the shopping spree at a baby furniture store. My mum insisted on buying a chest of drawers with a fold out changing tabletop. It was flat packed and would fit in our car. The store assistant asked someone to help us load it into the car. Within an hour of getting home, the flatpack was fully assembled, and we were putting the clothes into it. It was a strange feeling to be putting baby clothes into the drawers. I still needed to decorate the room, but we made sure the drawers were easily moved so that I could complete the decorating. I pulled a baby grow out of the bag that said, I love my mummy as much as my daddy does. It was one that my mum had put in without me looking, and it brought a tear to my eye. “I guarantee, from what you have

Paying for the private scan for Erin and her mum was the right decision. It was not fair to have to ask her mum to wait another 6 weeks until the next scan to see her first grandchild. But she wants a one-on-one sit down with me before she accepts the offer. At first, I thought it was strange but the more I think about it the more it makes sense. I did after all break her pregnant daughter's heart. There was a lot, looking back now, that I would have done differently if I could. But I know at least the path I chose led me to being a father with the woman I love. I know there is no use dwelling in the past. I need to just make sure that she sees how much I love her daughter and how much I will protect both her and our little peanut. I agreed without hesitation to the sit down but now I am nervous as hell. We agreed to meet at a cafe so that whatever was discussed was between us and it was then our decision how much and what we tell Erin. I knew that if she had a father figure in her l

“What happens now that Prue knows?” I asked as my body filled with fear.“Nothing changes. I'll deal with it.” There was an air of darkness in his voice that I had not heard in a long time. I gave his hand a gentle squeeze and smiled softly at him. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. There was a thought that kept passing through my mind. We had never really spoken in depth about his family unit. I knew that Prue was his stepsister and not actually blood related, but he had never disclosed which parent was blood and which wasn’t. It then occurred to me; that means he had a parent out there he had not spoken off before. “Can I ask you something?” I needed to know as it affected our child. “Anything,” he smiled without taking his eyes off the road. “You don’t have to answer, but I was wondering if you would tell me more about your parents and family. I know Prue is your stepsister, but you have always referred to your parents as mum and dad.”I saw the deflation in his face at

The nurses had been in and out for a while. The doctor had come in to check his observations when I asked if his parents had been informed. He didn’t believe that they had. I excused myself to find Cleo waiting on the chairs in the hallway.“How is he?” She asked taking to her feet.“He’s ok, I think. They haven’t contacted his parents though. I thought they would have been contacted as his emergency contact.”“Do you have their contact?” Cleo asked.I shook my head. “Only Prue. But she lives at home with them.”“Do you want me to call her?” Cleo offered.I didn’t want to speak to Prue even though I knew the news would be better coming from me. I couldn’t bring myself to make the call. Cleo headed outside the hospital to make the call. I went back to sit at Damian’s side. Seeing him there and the pain I felt at the thought of losing him and seeing him there. It was then that I knew I wanted him and only him. It didn’t matter about anything else. I loved Damian and wanted to spend my l
