Mia POV

It's been a week since Chris came and kissed me and told me he loved me. We are going out on our first date tonight and I'm so nervous. Not to mention I look like a whale and can't seem to find anything that looks good on me. I called Scott to come and help me, he is currently sat in a huge pile of my clothes.
"Didn't you buy any maternity stuff?"
"No. I had no intentions of going on a date while I'm 6 months pregnant" I groan "I'm just going to say I can't go"

"No you will not" I hear come from the door way, standing there is Lisa, Shanna and Carly.
"Come on. Up. We have stuff for you to try"
"But......."
"No butts let's go"
They help me into the bathroom and I start trying on all the dresses they have given me. I've all but given up until I try the last one. I look in the mirror and I actually feel pretty. I walk out of the bathroom and everyone gasps.

"Oh Mia you look beautiful" I see Carly wiping away tears.
"Carly why are you crying?" She looks over at Lisa and she has tears too.
"Guys what's going on?"
"I'm pregnant"
"You are?"
Carly nods and I waddle over to her hugging her tight.
"Congratulations! I'm so happy for you"
"Thank you. But none of you can say anything. I'm not supposed to have said anything"

I can't help but laugh. Scott is sat quietly on the floor.
"You okay?"
He nods "is uncle Scott feeling a little emotional"
He shakes his head "now you've done it"
He looks up and I see tears rolling down his cheeks.
"I'm just so happy. I get not one but two new nieces or nephews and I'm gaining a sister as well. Everything is so perfect"

"Oh Scott you big softy"
Everyone helps me finish getting ready, Scott is just helping me with my shoes when I hear the door open downstairs.
"He's early"
"It's okay. I'll go down"
I nod and smile at Lisa. Scott finishes my shoes and I look in the mirror.
"You look beautiful"
"Thank you Shan"
I make my way downstairs slowly, with Scott helping me. I look up and I see Chris standing there in an amazing suit, with a bouquet of lilies in his hand.

He smiles up at me and walks over handing me the flowers. "You look amazing"
"Thank you. So do you"
I then see a little head pop out from the kitchen and it's Luca.
"Mia you look beautiful" he hands me a single red rose.
"Oh Luca thank you"
I kiss his cheek and he kisses my belly. I can't help but smile.

"Are you ready?"
I nod and he extends his arm to me, i loop my arm through, Lisa takes my flowers and places them in a vase. Scott calls out he will take Luca to his house and lock up my house. We shout a thank you back and head to the car.
Chris is a complete gentleman, he opens my door and helps me in the car.
When he is comfortable we pull out of the drive and he reaches over to hold my hand. He lifts it to his lips and places a gentle kiss on the back. I can't help the butterflies that swarm my stomach.

"You really do look beautiful"
I smile shyly "thank you. I almost didn't make it. Couldn't find anything to wear, you know with being the size of a house and all" I giggle.
He shakes his head and places another kiss on my hand.
"You are beautiful Mia" he places my hand down and reaches out to touch my stomach.
"This is beautiful"
I place my hand on his as I feel the baby moving and kicking at Chris's hand.

He leaves his hand placed there all the way to the restaurant. Rubbing soft circles in place to calm the movement. He always has had a way to calm me just by a touch and now it seems like the baby is the same. I'm worried though. What if when this baby comes he changes his mind? What if he decides he doesn't want to raise this baby with me? What happens then?
