In love with a roof Thatcher

Chapter 24

December 17th flew round so fast and I was so excited. My first meet up! I wasn't sure if people would recognize me but I was looking forward to it anyway!

I woke up before Joe in his warm, cosy bed and I turned over and looked at him, peacefully sleeping. He is so beautiful when he is sleeping. I stretched out my legs and arms and I accidentally hit Joe in the face. Oops. His eyes opened and I smiled at him

"Sorry" I laughed.

"Mhm" he replied, turning over again. Joe is the most un-morning person ever, not speaking until at least 10oClock pretty much every day. I don't mind though, because I hate mornings too.

I looked down and saw my belly. It had grown a lot in just 2 weeks, I thought about how weird it was, there is a little person inside me growing every day. Awww.

Joe turned over, slowly waking up, and he linked his hand into mine. I smiled, looking across at Joe and he opened his eyes.

"You're so beautiful Ella" he whispered, his morning voice gave me butterflies.

"So are you Joe" I replied "its the meet up today isn't it?"

"Oh shit yeah, what time do we have to leave?" He asked and I looked up at the clock on the wall.

"About....45 minutes..." I answered

"Shit!" Joe said, rolling out of bed "I still need to shower and everything!!"

"Me too!!" I said "I'll cook breakfast while you have a shower and then we can swap. Alfie and Zoe are coming down in half an hour don't forget!"

"Ah man why didn't you wake me up earlier?!" He said as he walked into the bathroom

"Well...you-" he was in the shower before I could reply. He is so vein it's unbelievable. But when you look like him, I guess its hard not to be.

I started on the breakfast: egg, bacon, toast, mushrooms and tomatoes- where could you go wrong with that?! I knew Joe loved his food so I just cooked a lot, he would eat mine too if he could.

Joe came out of the shower with his towel wrapped around his waist. He looked so good and I didn't. I don't know how he called me beautiful when I was in trackies all the time but I love him anyway.

"That smells so good wow Ella I love youuuu" he looked at the plate of food "wowwww thank you so much" he said as he dived in.

"I'm going to take a shower I'll eat mine when I'm back" I said

"Okay beautiful" he replied.

In the shower I looked down at myself and thought (well that's what showers are for, thinking, right?) about what we could call our child, if it was a girl, if it was a boy, what we would buy it, if we would have to get a whole new apartment from the ones we were looking at and how we would decorate his or her room, what he or she would look like. So many things ran through my mind but now wasn't the time to think about that, now was the time to get ready because I realized, we had 10 minutes before Alfie and Zoe arrived. Shit.

AN- sorry for the short chapter and not updating much but I'll hopefully be updating more- I've had some good ideas :)
