Beside You | Jemi

Thirty Five

A month soon passed by and it was the day before the wedding. They had been planning for over a year now for tomorrow and they were excited that it was finally happening. Joe had seriously thought about the fact that Demi liked him and how much it must be hurting her to see him with another woman but he kept it to himself that he knew and Kevin hadn't told anyone. There wasn't much he could do about it now when he was just a month away from marrying the girl he had been with since they were both sixteen. He didn't find it awkward to be around her but he noticed now the way she looked at him, she had caught her staring a couple of times which was the most uncomfortable bit. Demi was now twelve weeks along and they had just come back from the twelve week scan and had arrived back at Demi's parent's house.

"Is everything okay with the babies?" Dianna questioned as Demi sat down next to her Joe and Emily sitting down too in the spare seats.

"Baby C is a little smaller than his or hers siblings but it's nothing to worry about. There's no complications as of yet and they've given me some medication for my morning sickness to sooth it a little bit." Demi answered.

"At least there's no problems," Eddie answered but then turned to Joe and Emily. "Are you excited?" They couldn't help but laugh.

"Maybe a little bit." Joe answered.

"Have you decided where you're going on your honey moon?" Dianna questioned.

"We decided not to have one." Emily stated.

"We want to stay here and be close in case anything happens with the babies."

"I'll be fine guys, you can go." Demi urged but they both shook their heads gently. They weren't fussed about a honey moon which is just an excuse for a holiday. They were happy staying at home celebrating with friend and family.

"We're fine Dems, we'd rather save the money up for the babies." Joe approved kissing the side of her head laughing as Demi sighed rolling her eyes at them.

Joe was soon sat in the bathroom with Demi again with her head leant against his shoulder. Demi hoped the medication just needed some time to kick in. She shut her eyes letting the tears roll down her cheeks but cracked a small smile when Joe wiped them away.

"They don't like me." Demi cracked a small smile.

"Of course they do, who couldn't like you," He grinned Demi giggling but shook her head, she was glad he was here. He always knew how to cheer her up.

"I just wish I could give you a baby without doing all this." Demi mumbled.

"You didn't have to give us a baby in the first place Demi, this was your choice but we're forever grateful that you are." Joe kissed her sweaty forehead gently.

"You should be with her, you're getting married tomorrow." Demi urged Joe just holding her tighter in his arms.

"You need me right now, Emily is fine with your parents," Joe approved laying his hand down on her slowly forming bump. "Calm down little ones, your tiring mommy out."

"I'm not their mommy." Demi whispered.

"You are for now Demi and you always will be, they will just call Emily mommy because that is how they've been raised."

"Look at you making up crap for me." She muttered Joe not helping but laugh.

"Do a favour for me?" He questioned.

"I'm kinda in the middle of the last favour I'm doing for you Joe." Demi complained but Joe just laughed again kissing her cheek.

"Just smile, it's beautiful when you do." Demi cracked a small smile but kept her head on his shoulder.
