It was within a couple of hours of speaking that Demi felt completely comfortable around her mother, she didn't know why she had walked out on her and her father but she didn't want to go into those sort of details yet, not when she was welcoming her daughter to the world. Joe was by her side the whole time but was staying quiet leaving the two of them to it but he still wasn't sure having Dianna here at this moment was for the best but he couldn't argue with Demi when she was the one going through the pain and wanted her mother here.
"Are you getting married then?" Dianna inquired Demi nodding her head looking over at Joe who seemed distant in his own world.
"Yeah after our baby is born and he or she is a little older." Demi answered pulling the duvet over her a little more. She was about half way through the labour and she was starting to get used to the pain a little bit, it was helping talking to her mother. It was getting her mind off it a little bit but Joe soon helps her get through the pain when another contraction comes.
"How did he propose?" Dianna inquired Demi smiling at the memory as she looked back at the date when her boyfriend proposed to her.
Demi leaned down kissing eleven month old Jayden's head as he babbled to himself just woken up from his nap, Niall was still sleeping on the couch a blanket covering his small body. She giggled when she heard a small bang from upstairs but she hoped it wouldn't wake Niall up. She stood up going to the bottom of the stairs.
"Joe are you okay?" Demi called upstairs.
"Yes but it would be great if you would come help," Joe stated Demi laughing again making her way upstairs taking a box from him. "I didn't realise we had so many Christmas decorations."
"Your sister lent us loads and we just never gave them back, you should call her ask her if she wants them back." Demi stated.
"Yeah I probably should, one minute," Joe pecked her lips gently making his way into the bedroom. She smiled as she started to go through the boxes. It wasn't long later that Joe came back. "Yeah she's going to pick some of the stuff up later, you want to go pick out a false tree from somewhere? I'll look after Jay and Niall."
"I can't believe we have to get a false tree just cause your allergic." Demi complained Joe shrugging his shoulders.
"Not my problem, at least it will last a couple of years." Demi leaned up pecking his lips gently smiling as she pulled away from him.
"I'll try not to be long, I wanna get everything up today." She answered Joe smiling as he watched her make her way downstairs.
"Do you think mommy will like the surprise Niall or do you think she'll hate it?" Joe questioned as he fed him some mashed potatoes, Niall squealed pushing his hand away making Joe laugh. "Is that a no then? You can't really understand me can you?"
"Dadda." He mumbled putting his hand in his mouth.
"Your such a messy boy unlike your brother, look at your brother Niall," He laughed again as the boy stared up at him and not his brother who was next to him. Joe moved towards Jayden when he started to whine. "I haven't forgotten about you Jay," He scooped some mash up on his spoon feeding the young boys the last of their lunch before he clear away. He put them down for a nap in their bedroom getting more and more nervous as time when along, Joe and Demi had been together for about twenty months now and he desperately wanted her to say yes to marrying him. He couldn't see himself with anyone else. He thought they were both ready for marriage or he at least knew he was.
