Niamh sits quietly with Matthew on her lap as he mum rants to them about keeping secrets. "Oh yeah and he said he's coming" Chloe says.

"He's not gay I've seen him with loads of girls!" Barbara shouts.

"Mum that's his friend Ashley and probably Courtney" Niamh says as she hugs Matthew.

Chloe rolls her eyes, "quit the shouting, I can't be arsed to listen to you and Jordan Walsh!" she shouts back at Barbara.

"Calm down Chlo" Niamh says.
"Right mum, listen, he's gay now please can we move on from this" Niamh says.

"He's not" she huffs in denial as she walks off.

"Oh my god; why doesn't she get it!" Chloe shouts as she paces the lounge.

"Chloe calm down for goodness sake" Niamh says.

Matthew whines as its too loud so Niamh gets up and takes him into the back garden.

She puts his sun hat on him and lets him crawl about, Chloe comes out and joins her for a bit of space from everything,

Matthew soon has the sun hat off and in his mouth. "What's up with you?" Niamh asks Chloe as she's awful grumpy.

"Been up a lot with Jordan" Chloe says.

"Oh I see" Niamh replies.

"Hmm yeah, not good" she sighs.
"Was Matthew bad at night?" Chloe asks.

"Yeah when he was really young, I was up and down with him like yo yo" Niamh laughs.

Chloe smiles a little "he's up every ten minutes" she sighs.

"He'll get better, promise, it gets easier" Niamh smiles.
"Until he's at Matthews age and I'm worried about him hurting himself, he pulls himself up on anything and everything" she says.

Chloe laughs, "I guess" she says.

"He's still quite young though, don't worry" Niamh smiles.

Chloe smiles and hugs Niamh, "hey what's all This for" she laughs.

"Just being amazing" Chloe mutters.

"Oh don't be silly, I'm no amazing mother" she laughs.

"Shut up, you are" Chloe mumbles, Niamh smiles and hugs Chloe back.

"So tell me all the goss girl" Niamh smiles as Chloe pulls away and sets her head on Niamh's shoulder.

"I haven't got much to say really" Chloe says.

"Bore" Niamh laughs.

"Well I'm sorry" Chloe laughs.

Niamh laughs, "where did Harry propose then?" she asks.

"In a restaurant" Chloe says.

"Aw that's sweet" she smiles.

"I want you to be my maid of honour" Chloe says.

Niamh's mouth drops, "you what?" she says in shock.

"You heard me" Chloe smiles.

"Oh my god" Niamh squeals as she hugs Chloe.

"I take that as a yes?" Chloe smiles.

Niamh pulls away and nods, "of course, 100%" she smiles happily.

She smiles at her once again before watching Matthew. "Any dates for the big day yet?" Niamh asks excitedly.

"8th July next year" Chloe smiles.

"Wow really?" Niamh asks and Chloe nods.

"Need it sometime soon that's all" Chloe smiles.

"Why?" Niamh asks curiously.

"It would just be nice to get it done and out the way" Chloe smiles.
Niamh nods and smiles, "I have my eye on a nice dress for the bridesmaid" Chloe says.

"Ooh who's bridesmaid and what colour?" Niamh asks.

"Well my dress is White and I'm either going for a lavender colour or baby pink" Chloe says.

"Ooh lovely" Niamh smiles.

"I want Matthew to have a wee suit on with a pink or lavender tie" Chloe says with a smile.

"That's lovely, he should be up on his feet by then" Niamh smiles.

"By the look of things he already is" Chloe laughs as she sees Matthew pulling himself up in the bench.

Niamh looks over at Matthew, "ma" he squeals.

"Cheeky" Niamh laughs, "Ooh Chlo I'm excited now" Niamh smiles.

Chloe smiles and gets up and goes and checks on Jordan, "Oh hi" she smiles as she bumps into Harry with Jordan crying.

"Oh dear, someone is in need of mummy" Niamh smiles.

Harry passes Jordan to Chloe and heads back indoors. "Oh my" Chloe sighs as she goes outside again.

Niamh keeps an eye on Matthew but watches Chloe. "Feed him" Niamh smiles.

"Yeah" she mutters.

Niamh smiles, "ooh I'm excited for the wedding" Niamh says excitedly.

"Please stop going on Niamh" Chloe says as she feeds Jordan his bottle.

"Oh wow sorry" Niamh laughs.

"Thanks" she huffs.

"Don't you breastfeed him?" Niamh asks.

"No" she says.

"Why not?" she asks.

"Too painful" Chloe says.

Niamh watches as Jordan isn't too fussed on the bottle and starts to whimper.

"Oh dear" Niamh says.

"Why don't you try it? He doesn't seem to want the bottle, I promise it's not that bad when you get used to it" Niamh smiles.

"I don't want to" Chloe says.

"Come on, give it a go; he needs fed" Niamh smiles as she tries to help her.

"No!" Chloe shouts.

"Fine, but he'll continue to cry!" Niamh says as Matthew comes crawling over.

"Right... You sort him!" Chloe says as she stands up and dumbs Jordan on her before running off.

"Oh my" Niamh says as she rolls her eyes as Chloe runs off. She tries to get Jordan to drink the bottle.

Niamh quickly stands up and goes through to the kitchen as she has remembered an idea for how Joe got Matthew to take his bottle, she gets some honey and puts it on the end of the teet and heads back into the garden.

"There wee fella" she coos as Jordan finally drinks the bottle happily.

Matthew pulls himself up on Niamh's knee and stands and watches her. "Look Matthew it's your cousin" Niamh smiles.

"Mama" he smiles as he touches Jordan's hand.

"Yes this is Jordan" Niamh smiles.

Matthew smiles and squeals happily as Barbara comes out.
