I had thought about everything and I realised that I hadn't done anything signifigant to cross off on my bucket list. So I started from number one - watch the sun set.

"Have you got everything?" Jai asked me, I nodded my head and we walked the short distance to the beach. It wasn't a big beach, but it wasn't small either. 

"Thank you for coming with me" Jai finished laying the blanket down then stood up.

"I'm going to be here for you the whole time" He replied, it made me smile knowing that I had people around me that will be there with me the whole time.

"Come on, lets get comfortable" He said in a hushed tone.

I obeyed and sat down on the sky blue blanket, Jai joined me and I leaned back so I was cuddling into him.

"This feels so cliché. Sitting together while the sun sets" I mumbled.

"I know but i don't care. You're worth it babe"

He wraps his arms around me and i feel safe. I get a weird feeling in my tummy, it confuses me. Then i figure out what it is,

"Oh my god Drew our baby is kicking!"

He puts his hand on my tummy and looks like the happiest person alive.

"She's gonna be just like you babe, a footballer." I say to him.

He doesn't say a word. He looks so happy. We lie like this for what seems like an age then watch the sun go down. I fall asleep in Jai's arms, so happy i could be here forever...

I wake up to JimJam bouncing on the bed telling me to wake up. I stay like this for a while. Pretend i'm asleep. He comes up close to my face, i pounce and pull him into my arms and kiss him repeatedly on his face. He squiggles and squirms like a five year old. I let him go to run downstairs.

I turn to find the other side of the bed empty. I am worried as to why Jai isn't there so i get up and go look for him in the bathroom. I come back in and he is lying on the bed with a tray.

"Thought i would bring my marvellous other half breakfast in bed."

"aw baby your so cute what am i going to do without you?"

"Your not going to have to pick up after me..."
