Always You

What If?

Emily POV

"I told you, you bought too much stuff" I laugh as I watch Michelle trying to close the trunk of her car

"Oh hush" she giggles "I said I would spoil the baby and I did" she says breathing a sigh of relief as the trunk finally locks shut

"There is no way we will get all this back on the plane" I say as we get in the car

"Well you dad and I are well over due for a visit so we'll bring with us" she says "and besides I am dying to see what you did with Randy's place"

"he pretty much let me do whatever I wanted" I say "He wanted it to feel like home for me"

"you and him are meant to be together" she smiles "whatever that witch tries to do don't let her come between you"

"oh I won't and neither will Randy" I say

As we pull up outside my dads house we find him outside waiting for us but there is no sign of Randy, my dad walks over to the car and when he sees the contents of the trunk he laughs and shakes his head

"you bought the whole damn store didn't you" he laughs

"don't exaggerate" she chuckles

"well as long as you two had fun" he says kissing her cheek, I had always thought that Michelle was the best thing that ever happened to my dad it was nice to see him so happy finally, he'd spent so long focusing on me that he spent far too long alone.

"where's Randy?" I ask

"Oh he's waiting for you by the pool" my dad says "you head on in I'll help Michelle with all this"

Nodding I head on into the house wondering what on earth was going on, as I walk through the house I hear soft music coming from outside and when I get to the french doors I see Randy out by the pool and all the fairy lights my dad had strung up around the garden are switched on.

"Hey what's going on?" I say as I step outside

"Hey come here baby" he says holding out his hands, I place my hands in his and he pulls me close to him "I love you so much Em" he says "I always have and I believe in my heart that you were always the one I was supposed to be with. From the moment I met you I knew that you were going to be a big part of my life and I never want that to change, so Emily Callaway" he says getting down on one knee and holding out a ring "will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"

"Yes" I manage to squeak out as he puts the ring on my finger before standing up and kissing me "But you already asked me" I say

"I know but I wanted to do it right" he says "I wanted to ask your dads permission and I want it to be special"

"I love you" I say looking into his crystal blue eyes "we both do"

"I can't wait to meet this little one" he says crouching down to kiss my stomach "it's like everything is falling into place and things are just as they should be"

"not quite we still have to get rid of her" I say

"I promise you she will be out of our lives for good" he says "all I want is you and this baby"

Later that night

After Randy's proposal we had celebrated with my dad and Michelle before finally heading to bed, Randy was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow but I just couldn't sleep, I hadn't slept properly since Kim showed up at the house, I know Randy had said her baby wasn't his and I believed him but that didn't stop me worrying.

I quietly get out of bed and head downstairs to get myself a glass of water, I'm just filling the glass when I hear a noise behind me and I turn to find my dad stood in the kitchen doorway.

"I heard someone moving around, I thought there was an intruder" he says "you alright honey?"

"Not really" I sigh "dad what if he's wrong? What if it is his?"

"Hey come here" he says gently wrapping me up in his arms "I believe Randy when he says it's not, I don't think he would be so adamant if there was any chance it could be"

"but what if it is? then we never get rid of her" I say as the tears start to fall "I just want Randy and I to be together in peace"

"And you will be honey" he says rubbing my back "and you will get rid of her you'll see, now all of this worrying is not good for you or my grandchild"

 "I know" I say wiping my eyes "I'm sorry dad"

"Don't you dare apologise" he says "it's only natural that you would worry, you have a baby on the way and she keeps causing trouble, it's not your fault"

"Is everything alright?" I hear Randy ask "Is she ok?"

"She's worrying about that heathen of an ex wife of yours" my dad says as he moves me from his arms to Randy's, as I snuggle into Randy's chest he wraps his arms around me and kisses my head. "I'll leave you two to it, goodnight honey" my dad says kissing my head before leaving the room.

"I'm sorry I know I shouldn't worry" I say as Randy rubs my back

"It's alright baby you are bound to worry" he says "but I promise you that baby is not mine and I will get her out of our lives if it's the last thing I ever do"
