I took Lucy's baby home just whilst she sets up a place for both of them. She decided to keep the baby who h is the best possible outcome for both of them. Lucy would regret not keeping her, I know she would.

"Ssshh please" I bounce her in my arms and brush the bottle against her cheek "you got to drink sweetheart" I tell her and let out a sigh. Lizzie laughs making us a hot drink "struggling?" I nod and sit down on a chair "she won't feed, I don't know what to do" "maybe she's not hungry?" I look over at Lizzie "I'll try again later" "I think that's for the best" I lay the baby in the bassinet that's in the lounge and go back onto the kitchen "do you want tea or a hot chocolate?" "Id really like a coffee actually" "I'm afraid not, not until we know if your pregnant or not" I sigh "you can still drink coffee whilst pregnant" I tell her and open the back door so Leia can go out "better safe than sorry". I take the hot chocolate from her and take a sip "this is really good" she smiles and looks out the window "do you think we should get an extension? Leia can have a room and the baby can have a room" "maybe, I'm not sure. They house is big enough at the moment but maybe once the baby grows up we should" Lizzie wraps her arms around my waist and kisses my forehead "I love you" "I love yo-" the baby starts crying to the other room making me stop "I'll be back in a minute. I'll try that bottle again" I follow Leia into the lounge and pick the baby up out of the bassinet "sshhshh it's okay" she coo and bounce around with her in my arms a little. I try the bottle again and this time it works "thank god" I whisper to myself and look down at her suckling whilst sleeping. I sit on the sofa and Leia sits Infront of me sniffing her "gentle" I remind her and smile down at the baby laying on my legs. I catch Lizzie smiling at me from the door making me smile back "babies definitely look good on you" i look down at her and realise the bottles empty "well in nine months we might have our own" I say and pick up the baby to burp her. I patt her back and stand up "let's take you back to the hospital. Mummy will be waiting" I tell her just as a little bro escapes her mouth. I put her in the carseat and put on my shoes "I'll be back in an hour" I tell Lizzie loading the baby supplies in the car "you better be. I want my donuts" I laugh and close the boot "love ya" I get in the car and wave to her as I drive to the road.

I get back home after dropping the baby to Lucy and picking up Lizzie's donuts from her favourite bakery. "I'm back!" I call opening the door, Leias quick to greet me with her wagging tail and her high barks "I missed you too puppy" I tell her stroking her softly. Lizzie walks down the stairs slowly and smiles seeing the bag in my hand "donuts?" I nod and take them into the kitchen. Lizzies arms wrap around my waist and I take them out of the bag "donuts and hot chocolate?" "Definitely" she kisses my neck and puts the kettle on. I load the donuts onto a plate and laugh watching Leia "they aren't for you" I tell her and stroke her head "but these are" Lizzie holds dog biscuits in her hand and Leia quickly takes them "good girl". She jumps up with her hands and head on the table "hey, don't give me those eyes" I tell her and push her down.

Lizzie and I are in bed eating donuts and drinking coffee whilst Leia is laying at her bottom on our feet. "Whick one do you want?" She asks holding up the plate "lotus biscoff but I know it's your favourite so I'll have the triple chocolate swirl" I pick it up and bite into it "mm so good" Lizzie smiles and picks up her and puts the rest down. I lean on her shoulder and take another bite "Leia no" I tell the dog sternly as she stares at the donuts "they'll make you sick" Lizzie tells her. I look up at Lizzie and smile "you've got biscuit on your nose" she quickly wipes it's off and kisses my lips "best day ever". Lizzie finishes her donut and drink before me and goes into the bathroom "close the door, I don't need to hear you pee" I tell her and she sticks her head out "I'm not peeing, I'm getting this" she holds a test out Infront of her "no, I'm not doing it. It's too early. It will give inaccurate results" she comes over and puts it down on the table before straddling my legs "pleaseeee" she whines but I shake my head "no. I'm not taking it until next week" she pouts "ugh so mean". I push her off and tap the space next to me which Leia quickly fills "kisses?" She licks my lips and my face in general "thank you" she lays her head on my lap which I stroke. Lizzie takes the test back into the bathroom and leaves it ontop of the toilet "it's there when you finally decide to take it" she says and sits back next to me "okay but I won't be doing it until next week" I smile softly and run my hand through her hair "it might not even work. I just want you to be prepared if it doesn't" "I know it might not work but there's a possibility it will" she smiles back and pecks my cheek
"I love you" "I love you too. I just hope we get to expand our family" I tell her with watery eyes "me too". I lean on her shoulder and smile over at Leia "come here" she lays on both of us with her head on Lizzie's lap "you'll be good with a baby Leia. Your good with Rose" I tell her as if she understands.
