Demi followed Joe back into the house once he had settled down but he was still gripping onto her hand. She knew when she got to know Joe more and they became as close as they would she may have to help him out. He was struggling as a person but she would help him as much as she could, she didn't have anyone when she was going through the same thing. Joe was excited about seeing Demi a lot more now that they were basically living together but he wasn't looking forward to not seeing his mother everyday like he usually did.

"I have to go now Joseph, I'm sorry if you can't see that this is for the best." Denise stated leaning up kissing his forehead gently then coming back down on her feet.

"I-I can, I'll just miss you. I don't get to see dad often as it is and now you're gone it just won't be the same." Joe mumbled.

"We'll see each other as much as we can and there's always phone calls or emails, just have fun alright and keep me updated with the pregnancy." Denise demanded softly Joe cracking a small smile as he nodded his head but then brought her into a tight hug.

Joe slumped down on the couch next to Demi after he had gone home and explained to Jenna what was happening. He collected his belongings too planning to go back and get everything another time. It felt weird for him in a way to be in a group home when all he ever had was a decent upbringing until the age of tweleve. His parents raised him well. Demi took hold of his hand kissing his cheek gently to comfort him.

"At least I get to see my beautiful girlfriend more." Joe grinned wrapping his arm around her bringing her closer to him. Demi smiled snuggling into his chest.

"We'll try and afford our own little place ready for when our twins arrive." Demi suggested kissing his chest gently the smile on her face as she felt him begin to run his fingers through her long brunette hair. She closed her eyes in satisfaction enjoying the feeling.

"Boys, girls or both?" Joe whispered in her ear.

"I think everyone would want one of each but I don't know. I always saw myself with a little boy if I'm honest." Demi admitted Joe moving his other hand on her flat stomach.

"Maybe we have one little guy in there or even two, I wanna wait until birth to know though if that's alright?" Demi opened her eyes again looking in his direction.

"Really?" Joe nodded his head. "I don't think I can wait if I'm honest."

"Well you can know, just don't tell me otherwise you owe me a foot rub." Joe smiled this time as Demi burst out laughing.

"There is no way I'm rubbing your feet!" Demi exclaimed. "But I won't tell you if you don't want to know. I respect you wanting it to be a surprise, I just can't wait that long."

"Thanks," Joe kissed her hair. "What time is our bedtime here anyway?"

"We have to be in our rooms by nine lights off by ten." Demi answered.

"I'm ready for bed now." Joe spoke before shifting a large yawn, Demi patted his leg gently moving away from him.

"Go to bed, it's been a long day," Demi demanded Joe nodding his head gently leaning down kissing her gently giving her chance to kiss back before he pulled away. "Sleep well." Joe smiled as he exited the room making his way to his room, he had already been shown it by Nathan. It was the last room but both Joe and Demi were too old to share with younger ones.

"Where's Joe gone?" Nathan questioned as he entered the room two mugs in his hands. Everyone else had already gone to bed but Joe and Demi's was a little later with the two of them being older. Demi sat up taking one of the mugs.

"He's gone to bed, he's tired." Demi answered Nathan sitting down next to him.

"I guess I'll have this one then." Demi giggled taking a sip from the mug.
