I sat in the parlour on the sofa beside the fire as thomas tinkered with things at the bar. I giggled stroking my bump, it was so surreal to feel the heartbeat of our baby, to smell him inside of me, hadn't helped my hunger had been insatiable since we found out. 

"One Blood ice cream for my wifey," He smiled as he came back with a spoon and a nice big bowl of blood ice cream, 

"Thank you thomas." I smiled, took it and starting to eat.

"Awww hungry little thing aren't you."

"I'm growing a whole vampire in my belly."

"Good point." he chuckled, "On that note..." he smiled moving to have his head in my lap kissing and stroking my stomach "Ummm hello little boy, you feeling cosy in mummy's tummy? yeah? that's lovely, you getting lost of nutrients?" he cooed between kisses, "Yeah? mummy's feeding you good you don't need more blood? you enjoying mummy eating her ice cream?"

"He likes blood ice cream."

"Mhm, I think we'll have to lock the freezer once this little guys born." He cooed, "You happy little boy? happy wiggles, awwww he just needed some cuddles from his daddy."

"He did, he loves your cuddles thomas."

"Well I love cuddling both of you, you know I do." he cooed 

"I know," I smiled eating my ice cream, "we really should tell the family, I'm surprised no one has noticed yet."

"I am too actually, still maybe they're just waiting patiently for us to break the news about our little bundle of evil," He cooed 

"You thought of any names yet?"

"Ohh? I had a couple in mind."

"Oh? go on then tell me."

"Well, we already know it's a boy... I was thinking Mark like my dad, or Henry like my grandfather."

"You know thomas, the repeating names in vampire families really doesn't help people like me who come into the family and have to try and remember all these damn names. It's a confusing enough family tree as it is."

"True, our family tree isn't that bad, you should see Jacks."

"I have it's terrifying..."

"speaking of which you need to go on ours as will little one," he smiled 

"Well, we still need a name,"

"You're right, what about Arthur? big, strong, mythical!"

"Ehhh..."

"How about, Edward?"

"No. No. No. We're vampires I refuse to relate anything to Twilight."

"That's fair." he nodded, "Any idea's then?"

"I like... Artemis." 

"Artemis?" 

"Yeah,"

"I really like that."

"You do?"

"Yeah, I really like Artemis. what do you think little boy? you an Artmeis?" he smiled stroking my belly and immediately he kicked, "Ohhh I think that's definitely a yes, okay its settled then Artmeis." 

"Our little Artmeis." I smiled, "We should tell your family there gonna kill us if we don't"

"I know, tonight at dinner I promise."
