Bound to you. (a Peddie story)

Room arrangements

Patricia's POV

I had just had the paternity test and Me Sweet was driving Eddie and i back to Anubis, the results would be posted to us within the next 3-4 days, now we just had to play the waiting game. Right now, we were sat in the back on Sweets small car holding hands, engaged in a very stop-start and awkward conversation -if you could even call it that- with him.

"So...When are the two of you planning to marry? Perhaps a spring wedding?" Sweetie asked from the front of the car, surprisingly Mr Sweet had been very supportive with the engagement and baby, he was really trying to make an effort.

"Well I know that I don't want to get married with a baby bump and he or she is due at the start of the summer holidays, maybe an autumn wedding?" i told them both.

"Yeah, gives Yacker time to get back to her slim self." Eddie joked. I hit his arm playfully.

"You calling me fat?" I asked.

"Not yet, but you will be soon."

"He's correct Patricia, you will loose your figure soon enough." Sweetie piped in from the drivers seat, like i didn't realise i would get fatter, i wasn't dumb! Well i wasn't THAT dumb!

"I got that." i said to them.

"An autumn wedding sounds delightful." Sweetie told us, leaving an awkward silence once again.

"Do you want a son or daughter Patricia?" he asked.

"I'm not quite sure, maybe a daughter, i don't really know." i said honestly.

"I want a girl but i don't mind either way, I would just rather he or she is biologically mine." Eddie told us.

"He or she is your son or daughter, whether biologically or not." i told him.

"I know but i would rather live my life knowing that i got you into this, not that creep."

"A granddaughter would be nice!" Sweet interjected from the front. "So would a grandson though i suppose." he pondered it for a while. "Either way, i'm going to have a chat with Victor and Trudy when we get to Anubis House about next year, the two of you are obviously going to have to go to school." he said. "Will you please join us?"

"Yeah. Okay."

We continued the drive home in silence, awkward silence then headed straight to Victor's office with Trudy in tow. Eddie and I sat down on the two creaky chairs opposite Victors desk and Sweetie and Trudy stood beside us ready to sort out the arrangements for next year.

After what seemed like hours -but had only been one- Victor finally made a good suggestion. "What if Miss Williamson and Mr Miller go to school as normal next year with Trudy as a nanny to the child, we can rearrange the rooms so that the two of them and their child live in Anubis house and share a room. They can have the one that Alfred Lewis and Jerome Clarke currently share as it is the most pratical to mask the cries of a child, then we can move the boys into Patricia's current room as that is the only one sutable for 3 beds, moving Joy and Mara into the other downstairs room." we all nodded in agreement, that was our room sorted, it sounded perfect. We would stay where we were for now then move into the new room next school year. Our child was due the end of July, during the summer holidays, it was almost as if it was perfectly planned.
