Joe helps Demi lay down on the bed that night doing his own toiletries and getting changed before joining her in the bed, they find soon find themselves in each other's embrace just where they wish they could be every minute of the day. Demi's got it worse but Joe is starting to feel the stress of having Demi not being able to do much. He has to go to work of a day, come home late, make a start on dinner while doing the housework. Demi can hardly stand up anymore without having to sit down soon after. Neither of them have trouble getting to sleep of a night.

"He's a murder." Demi mumbles against his chest turning Joe into shock a little bit, he wish he knew before so he would have demanded that she hadn't of gone in there. He could kill her and his daughter, he doesn't want that.

"How old were you?" Joe questions Demi shrugging her shoulders.

"I barely remember anything so I presume I was quite young." Demi explains Joe kissing her head gently trying to settle her down.

"He's locked away now Dems, he can't hurt anyone." Joe reassures Demi sighing not wanting that, she never had her father around and was terrified when she got handed Rosabella. She didn't want the same for her, growing up without some sort of a father figure, she knows how much she wishes her dad would have been there with her to grow up, seeing all her school performances, see her graduate and be here to see his first Grandchild. He ruined the right to see all that when he took a life, now he is in there for life clearly turning him somewhat insane.

"I don't want him to be though, he's my dad, he should be here with me not in there going insane." Demi expresses Joe kissing her head again calming her down.

"I know baby but there's nothing we can do, he's committed a crime and he has to pay the price for it." Joe explains Demi sighing again.

"I want to see him again, I want to help him." Demi demands determined to help her dad out, he hasn't done much for her but that doesn't mean she has to do the same for him.

"Clearly it's stressing you Dems, please just wait until you give birth." Joe asks politely Demi shaking her head determined to do it as soon as possible.

"I want to do it tomorrow and nobody or anything wills stop me." Demi responded Joe sighing this time knowing how stubborn she can be. When Demi has her mind set on something there is no changing her mind, she will do it even if it isn't for the better of people around her. There is no way Joe will win this fight, especially when she is pregnant, she will go tomorrow putting their daughter in risk. Joe doesn't even bother trying to fight back.

"Fine but I'm staying close by in case anything happens." Joe demands adding in his own part of the deal, he'd be there in a split second if Demi was in danger.

"Fine." She says simply burying her head in his chest as his arms wrap tighter around her. They soon fall asleep content with their conversation.

Demi wakes up the next morning by Joe shaking her, she suppresses a small smile grabbing his shirt bringing him down to kiss her. Joe smiles through the kiss pulling away slightly so he could speak to her with her able to understanding.

"That was nice." He says Demi smiling.

"Help me up." She demands sitting up the best she could. Joe helps her to stand up giving her a proper kiss before helping her get in and out of the shower. He's not just looking forward to meeting his daughter, he's looking forward to having a bit more freedom.

"I managed to get the day off work to come with you." Joe states as he shaves the stubble off his face, it's kind of working for him but just not as strict.

"Okay is Rosie up?" Demi questions.

"No, I'm about to go." He says drying his smooth face before exiting the room.
