"Okay so is everything ready?" Sophia was stressing about Taylor. "Soph, it's your wedding day. You are not allowed to stress."

"And what about you?"

"What about me?" I asked Soph and smiled. "I mean being 5 months pregnant is getting in the way isn't it?"

I looked down at my belly, swollen due to my babygirl who was still cooking. "Eh don't think much about it at this point." She rolled her eyes and I smiled.

"Mummy!" Delia ran over to me and smiled. "Daddy told me to come tell you that Uncle Li's ready and people are coming in......Auntie Sophia wow..." Delia giggled.

"You like the dress Lia?"

"Yes Auntie Sophia....I think it's beautiful." Soph spun around and laughed. "Holy cow I'm getting married."

"You're gonna be great, okay? Liam's already waiting so we should go out soon."

"The biggest day of my life...wow." She smiled and we walked out to see her father waiting. "You look beautiful honey...."

***************

"I now pronounce you man and wife, Liam, you may kiss your bride." We all clapped when they kissed and I picked up Theo and put him on my hip whilst Harry picked up Delia and held her up.

"Love seeing my friends happy." I nodded and Sophia gave me a thumbs up whilst Liam, who was behind her was smiling with a fist up and I chuckled.

"C'mon. Let's go."

***************

"Mummy?" Theo turned in his car seat to look at me.

"Yeah sweetheart?"

"Are we going home?"

"No we're going to the after party honey."

"Why?"

"Because Auntie Sophia and Uncle Li just got married!" I smiled and put a hand on my belly rubbing in small circles.

"Why?"

"Because they love each other." I said matter of factly. "Like mummy and daddy?" Delia asked and I nodded. "Just like mummy and daddy."

"But why mummy?" Theo continued because he was at that age where apparently 'why' was the only word he knew.

"Theo I'm not doing this right now, please." I sighed and turned back to face the road. Harry put his foot on the brake bringing the car to a sudden stop and reached his hand over me so I would be safe and huffed. "Bastard cut me off."

"Watch your mouth Harry." He smiled slyly and I looked back at the kids to make sure they were safe.

I sighed when I heard Theo's voice in my ear again. "Daddy?"

"Yeah buddy?" Harry asked and turned left. "What does bastard mean?"

"Theodore!" I turned and raised my voice at him. "You do not repeat that word, ever!" Harry yelled and Theo's eyes widened.

I looked at him in astonishment. "That is an adult word that little boys and girls do not say until you are an adult like mummy or daddy, do you understand? Or no?"

"Yes mummy." His lip quivered and I smiled. "Mummy just wants her boy to be good alright?"

Theo nodded and I put my hand on my head. "You okay honey?" Harry put a hand on my thigh looking at me intently.

"I'm fine. My head just......ugh." I closed my eyes and relaxed. When I opened them I could hear Harry's soft voice humming along to the kids.

"Mummy has a mean, mean headache and needs to rest okay?"
