I answered the call as i walked out the door. 

"Hello Dan its Chloe from the adoption center, i just wanted to confirm the date that you will be picking your baby boy up"she said calmly 

"oh yes when can i pick him up" i asked.

"How does the 30th sound?" she said

"Amazing,we'll be there on the 30th, thank you for everything i cant wait to meet him"

we said our goodbyes and i walked back in,to fine phil crying.why was he crying?

"Babe whats wrong" i said as i walk over to the sofa

"Your leaving again in you?" he managed to say through his sobs

"No no no,im here for the next 3 months, im not going anywhere" i told him

"then why did you leave to answer the phone,you normally only do that when you have to leave again?he sobbed into my t-shirt

"If you must know i was confirming your birthday present" once i send that his face let up,

"so your not leaving yet?"

"No you silly cow, now stop crying and lets cwtch on the sofa and watch a film! (If you dont now what cwtch is,im welsh and thats what we call cuddle)

*Fast forward a week, Phils Birthday*

*Dans Pov*

Rise and shine birthday boy, i said as i walked in to our bedroom with phils breakfast,He woke up and turned over to see a big stack of pancakes in one of my hands, and roses and a card in my other hand,he sat up and took the pancakes off me, and i sat down next to him,

"Happy birthday my little lion" i said giving him a kiss

"Dan you didnt have to go all this for me" he said

"but i wanted to not everyday you turn 27"(i know phils 29 but for this he is younger)

"i have a surprise for you, but you have to be ready by 10:30 so eat up and meet me in the living room" i said as i left it was now 10:00 o'clock. i walked to the spear room which i had turned in to a nursery for our baby boy, it was blue with a wooden crib,white dresser,3 boxes of toys and some shelves with cuddle toys on them it looked perfect,we have never used this room and im surprise phil havent gone in it,i would decorate it when he was at work and i got my brother to help me with it.

i was sitting on the sofa when phil walked in 20 minutes later,

"ready"i asked him, he nodded and i lead him to the car, once he was in the car i told him i would have to blind fold him.

"why where are we going?" he asked

"Well it wouldnt be a surprise if i told you" i said he nodded and i put the blind fold on him, the orphanage was a good 20 minute drive and it was now 10:50,we had to be there by 11.once we got there i helped phil out of the car, still blind folded and leaded him in to the orphanage. once we were in i took his blind fold off he looked so confused.

"Dan why are we at an orphanage?" he asked so confused, as i was about to answer him a lady walked over holding a baby boy,

"Daniel and Phillip Lester" she said

"yes thats us" i said,phil looked at me with awe and she handed phil the baby and he looked at me

"Happy birthday babe" i said to him and started to cry with happieness.

"When did you do this?"he asked in total shock.

"remember i said i had to meet with my brother for lunch the day i was meant to leave,well me and my brother came here to put forms in as i new i would be gone for 10 months and i thought if i told you,you would be inpatient, so i thought i do it for your birthday."i told him

"i have two questions, one whats his name and two we havent set anything up for him we have nothing ?" he looked really worried now

"will first his name is jake, i didnt want to change it so i kept it as that, and two why do you think every time you came home i was always covered in paint", i giggled at the look one phils face.

"you mean you been doing this behind my back without me know,Dan this is why i married you" he let out a giggle and jake started giggling too.

jake was about 11 mouths old and hes birthday is in two months,he looked like phil it was really wired he had blue eyes and black hair, i swear phil was his real father.

as we left the orphanage phil looked at me,

"We havent got a car seat for him?" he said,i looked at him and laughed, i walked to the boot of the car and opened it,

"you were saying"i said holding a brand new blue car seat in my hands 

"Daniel Lester you really have thought over everything havent you?"be both started laughing as i set up the car seat in the back and put jake in it.

after what seemed like a long day we finally reached home

i couldnt wait to show phil jakes room.
