Marjorie looked up towards the smell of coffee and a familiar pattern of feet, 'You alright, my love?' she asked the blonde. He smiled, an excited twinkle in his eye, and handed her a coffee. 'Thank you, Reece. Did you already give Char hers?' she raised an eyebrow and smiled when he shuffled his feet, as he tried to hide the dopey grin that spread across his face.

'Ah, yeah,' he seemed a little distracted and hesitant, to the brunette and she looked at him quizzically, 'Umm, will you and Aut be free to come over Saturday for dinner?' He bounced slightly on the balls of his feet.

'Of course,' Marjorie smiled back.

'I'm guessing that extra coffee isn't for me, big brother,' Autumn walked in behind him and Reece turned his head with a start, that made his sister smirk and Marjorie giggle.

'Actually, little sis, this is for you. I've already taken Char her coffee,' Autumn snatched the remaining coffee from the cup tray he was holding. 'Gee, thanks big brother,' she said sarcastically, as the brunette walked to her desk.

'Is something wrong with your shins?' The brunette asked.

'Uh no. I'm perfectly happy with the last round of bruises, thank you,' he backed out the door, 'We will see you both for dinner Saturday,' he said with a smile, and a glint in his eye that immediately made Autumn suspicious.

The brunette turned to face Marjorie, 'Why are we going for dinner to my brother and Charlotte's house on Saturday?' she asked with a raised brow.

'Well, beautiful, because Char is my best friend,' Autumn was not convinced, 'Reece is your brother,' the brunette rolled her eyes, causing Marjorie to giggle. It was her laugh that always filled Autumn's heart with warmth and happiness.

'I love you Sunshine,' The green-eyed woman went behind the brunette and started to slowly press her fingers into Marjorie's shoulders and neck.

'Beautiful, that's incredible, but a massage is not going to get me to text Reece and Char that we can't make it'. Marjorie turned around and pulled Autumn to her lips for a kiss, as they heard a familiar tone of someone clearing their throat.

'Close your eyes my Quinny,' the redhead said as she turned the little girl to look over her shoulder away from the lip locked couple.

'Good morning Mia,' Marjorie said as she sat back down, Autumn smiled at Quinn, who returned the look with a little giggle and outstretched her arms for the brunette to cuddle her. Mia passed the little girl over to Autumn who sat with her at her desk and started playing peek-a-boo with the little blonde. 'Everything ok?' Marjorie asked the red head while smiling at her fiancé.

'Yeah, I was just dropping Quinn off because Clo had an early client'.

'I can take her to the room if you like. Anything I should let Char know?' Autumn was still playing with Quinn as she spoke.

'She had a great sleep last night, she has had breakfast and, oh she has gone off banana's but is obsessed with strawberries, and watch this,' Mia walked over and crouched down at eye-level with Quinn, gently touching her arm, 'Quinn, Mia's gonna go now, you have a great day with Aunty Aut, Aunty Marji and Char. I love you. Bye bye,' Mia gave the little girl a kiss and waved her hand. Quinn smiled, then opened and closed her hand to wave goodbye back 'Bah Bye. Bah Bye,' came her little reply.

'Oh, my goodness that is so adorable,' Marjorie exclaimed, Autumn smiling at her lovers familiar high pitched, emotional reaction.

'It is,' Mia smiled, as she stood up, waving at the little girl as she left.

Once out in the hall, Mia turned to hear the baby room door open, and Reece and Charlotte stood in the doorway. She waited for anger or sadness to wash over her, but it didn't come, and when she looked, Mia noticed a different sway of Charlotte's hips as she walked and a slight fullness in her cheeks. The redhead clocked where Reece placed his hand on her ex-girlfriend's abdomen, as he kissed her goodbye before walking towards the exit where Mia stood. She smiled at him, 'So,' she began as they walked outside.
