I woke up feeling so rough. Not hung over just like my eyes hurt and a huge ass headache. I'm so glad Noah helped me out last night, he is genuinely so sweet. I'm just laying in bed looking at the ceiling just trying to recap the last 24 hours. Honestly bella, why think about what happened yesterday when you have your future near by? The only thing I'm excited for is my final day at work on Monday. And hopefully Marco and Sarah have their baby! If I miss that I will lose my shit.

I got up from my bed and it's bloody freezing. I wrap my grey cardigan around me and walk to the bathroom. I brush my hair and tie it up very messy in a way it looked good and then brushed my teeth. I went downstairs and fed Mocha.

"Sorry it's late Mocha" I said.

Looking at the clock it's 11:25. Yep late indeed Bella. There's a knock at my door it kind of makes me jump. I walk over and open the door. There he is. Noah, wearing a grey hoodie, black coat and light brown cargos. He held a brown paper bag and the look on his face was for some reason shocked. I looked down at what I was wearing. Shit I'm still in my pyjamas! No no no this is embarrassing. I turn away quickly and uses my cardigan to cover my self a bit as I had a bit of a cleavage.

"Oh my god I'm so sorry! You should've told me you was coming!" I said.

"I did. I specifically told you yesterday." Noah replied.

He walks in wiping his feet at the door mat and he closes the door behind him.

"And don't worry about the pyjamas." He continued.

I look at him as he placed the bag on the island.

"I had a feeling you would be too tired to actually go out today, so I picked up some stuff, and we can do some winter home things, bake and puzzles. Also I got some food for us tonight!"

I couldn't help but smile at him lovingly. Has he really just done all that for me? I can feel my face slowly burning up as I watch him stock my fridge and cupboards. But then I remember he has May at home.

"What about May?" I ask.

"She can cook or order, I gave her some money. Something is kind of strange about her and I don't know how to feel about it. Hey is it okay if I come back? I need to grab something from home."

"Oh sure, be my guest!"

He smiles and leaves my house.

I walk over to my boiler and turn on the heating, I also turn on the kettle and prepped my hot chocolate. You know I really didn't mind going out, but this. This is a whole other level. I love it. I grab a pan and put it on the stove and I walk over to the fridge but I look directly to a photo of me and Jack as kids on my fridge. I sigh and open the fridge taking the milk out and pouring it into the pan and puts it back. To be honest I think Jack had every right to be mad at me, but I had every right to be mad at him. It isn't like I chose to go before his birthday. Ever since I was 15 I wanted to move to Australia to be come a dermatologist and he knows that. I heat up the milk and pour it into my hot chocolate mix and added a little amount of boiling water. Yeah for some reason I don't like microwaved milk. It takes weird. I then also make up a cuppa tea for Noah. I kinda of know what his order because of the cafè thing.

I hear my front door open and I look to see Noah and Oliver! Aww he brought Oliver! And Noah. He's changed into his pyjamas.

"Didn't want mocha to be left out, nor you with your pyjamas!" He laughed.

Am I in love with Noah?

...

It's been around 3 hours and we are just waiting for the cookies to bake. We are sat on the sofa drinking hot drinks and Oliver is resting next to me with his head on my lap and Mocha is asleep on the floor next to Noah's feet.

"You mentioned May acting strange?" I asked.

Noah take a sip of his tea.

"Yeah. The reason she is at mine because apparently her husband is randomly attacking her. I haven't met the guy so I wouldn't know what he is like. Well anyway yesterday her cuts on her face looked raw as in it just happened. And when she was bad mouthing you I obviously got mad. Stabbed the knife into the chopping board and turned right into her face shouting at her. She didn't flinch. She took forever to get downstairs too yesterday morning. I think she's faking it." He said.

I laugh a bit. He looks at me confused.

"Typical May. She use to pull that trick off in secondary to try get me into trouble. We eventually found out it was just makeup and fake blood. That's how she got excluded from school." I said taking another sip of hot chocolate.

"I'm just waiting for the right chance to ruin her plan" Noah says confidently.

There's a knock at the front door and Marco walks in right after the knock Sarah follows but she looks to be in pain.

"Sorry sis, we won't be able to make it to the hospital call the hospital and boy help me get her upstairs into the bath!" Marco said quickly.

I am so shocked! Sarah is going into labour in MY house! The baby is going to be born here!

...

Sarah's midwife got here on time just as the baby started crowning and Sarah asked me to stay with her and not Marco because he would more or less pass out and not Noah because she doesn't know him.

There was a cry of a baby and the midwife smiled putting the baby into Sarah's arms.

"Congratulations Mrs Diaz, he is Healthy and you are now a mother to a baby boy" said the midwife.

I feel very emotional for Sarah, I'm genuinely so proud of her. To be honest, I think I might not do dermatology when I go over to Australia. I think I'm very inspired to become a midwife. I want women to feel this amazing experience of child birth, I find it so beautiful. I smile at my thoughts and then smile at my new nephew.

I walk to my room where the boys where.

"Congratulations big bro" I say giving him a huge hug.

Once we hugged he skipped away into the bathroom. I sat down next to Noah. And I can feel him look at me.

"You know I think being a midwife sounds fun" I said.

Then I can feel his smile. He put his arm around me for a side hug. I couldn't help but blush.

Due to Sarah having a home birth she had to go to the hospital right away so they was gone after 30 minutes, and the midwife left after cleaning my bathroom which left me and Noah on our own once again.

Shit.

The cookies.

I ran downstairs to check the over but Ive seen they are already on the side looking amazing. I look over at Noah and he's just stood there smiling at me. God he is such husband material!

...

It was about 9pm and I could already feel my eyes ready to glue shut. In fact they did. Noah had noticed I was asleep and he pulled me onto him so I was more comfortable. I was asleep on top of him, practically cuddling. We had a blanket around us and I could feel his arm on my waist to keep me in place.

This is heaven.
