12 Weeks

Luke had loved Elodie for nearly five years, and he'd never questioned those feelings even once in that time. But somehow in the week since she had shared with him their little secret he had somehow fallen more in love with her. His eyes linger longer on her, tracing her body slowly on the regular, trying to detect any differences in her silhouette knowing that it will be changing so much over the next few months as their baby grows.

"Lu," He is pulled from his thoughts of their baby again, meeting green eyes filled with amusement, "You're doing it again, Luke." Elodie laughs, sitting herself on the end of the bed in their hotel suite.

"It's not my fault that my fiancée is so beautiful." He shrugs, "Or that she's carrying my baby, and that makes her somehow even more beautiful."

"Oh ya?" She grins, laying back on the bed, her eyes closing as she takes a deep breath.

"You okay, El?" He hums softly, crossing the room slowly to lean over her, kissing her forehead as her eyes flutter open.

"Ya, just tired. But the flight to Australia always makes me tired, it's just so long."

"Plus you're literally growing a human, that alone is more than enough excuse to be tired." He chuckles.

"And people are going to catch on to that fact if you don't stop staring at me the way you have been for the last week." She points out.

"Ya, I know you don't want everyone to know yet, so I'll do my best to keep it from being questioned." Luke sighs, rolling to his side and falling beside her on the bed.

"I can't have everyone worried about me, Luke. That's all, I mentally can't handle the strain of answering if I'm okay twenty times a day for the next month, and I can't handle everyone trying to make my life easier, because despite the fact that everyone will mean well, it will only actually make my life and job harder."

"I know. But your brother should know, so should we go find him?"

"I asked him to come to our room once he was settled. He should be here in a bit."

"Even better. Is there anything you need right now, pretty girl?" He asks softly.

"No, I'm okay. But I think baby Hemmo is feeling daddy deprived." She smirks.

"Oh ya?" He laughs.

"They had to endure an entire fifteen hour flight plus travel to and from the airports without daddy having any face time with the belly. I think they want to hear daddy's voice." She nods, shifting her shirt up her torso to bunch below her chest.

"How could I ever deny my baby what they want so badly." Luke shifts until he's kneeling on the floor, his face next to Elodie's stomach.

"You can't, and they already know it." She giggles, her hand carding into his messy curls as he presses a kiss to the warm skin under his lips.

"Hi, baby Hemmo. Mum thinks you missed having my attention." He mumbles, "I bet she's right, and I missed being able to talk to you too. We are in Australia now, this is where daddy is from and I can't wait to bring you back in a year or two when you're old enough to travel. We're in Brisbane right now, but in a few weeks we'll be in Sydney, and I can't wait to share that with you. This place is so special, and so many people here love you and they don't even know it yet. I'm excited for you to experience your first 5sos show too, you get to come to fifteen shows in the next month, and help mummy prepare all of dad's guitars. I hope you love all the shows, and I can't wait for your first show after you're born too. I'll give you and your mum a million private shows too, don't worry."
