Just A Touch(Vikings-Marco Ilsø: Part 5)

*Aubrey's pov*

These last couple months went by quickly Marco was amazing handling everything amazing from finishing the nursery to touring the birthing floor with me and everything in between...my family flew in 2 weeks ago and part of me was thrilled my stepmonster decided not to come while my mom and stepdad rented a place till July my dad opted to stay in a hotel...while Marco was outback with my brothers and step dad..my sister in laws and mom decided to go explore with their kids...leaving me to talk to my dad "So why didn't Penny want to come?"

Dad sighed "Aubrey."

I shrugged "Not trying to start anything I just want to know why."

He sighed "She's moving out."

I stopped "What since when?"

Dad sighed "She was cheating on me...I filed for divorce and told her to get out....we had no children together and she stepped out of our marriage so she has no claim to the house."

I frowned "Daddy I'm sorry."

He nodded "Don't be I know you didn't like her."

I shook my head "Maybe so but that doesn't mean I wanted you hurt...this sucks."

Dad nodded "I can't believe I didn't see it she was changing completely the way she dressed all of it.."

I nodded as I got off the stool then walked around the island wrapping my arms around his torso"Hey she made the biggest mistake of her life..my dad is a catch..."

He kissed my head "Thank you Duckie."

I smiled softly "We should make sundaes...I could so use one of your famous sundaes."

Dad laughed "How could I tell my little girl and her little girl no."

I smiled...we were laughing and talking as we built the sundaes...I smiled as Marco pressed a kiss to my cheek "Hi.."

Marco smiled "What's this?"

I smiled "Nate's famous sundaes...he would make these whenever I was in a bad mood, I felt sad, or just because."

He nodded "Looks rich."

I nodded "They are...and the best sundaes ever.."

Gavin chuckled "I remember Aubrey making me one when I busted my knee I was so bummed...it wasn't the ice cream but the fact my little sister made one and sat with me eating and watching the game dropped everything she had planned to keep me company."

I smiled "That's why they're so special it's not the ice cream despite being so good it's the time spent together..."

Marco kissed my cheek again and sat down "You alright Nate?"

Dad nodded "Hasn't been a good couple weeks...but none of that is important my little girl is about become a mum that's all that matters."

I looked up at my dad to see his blue eyes full of sadness..I nudged his hip with mine "I think you need a double."

He looked at me with a smile "I think you're right Duckie."

Josh spoke "Hey Duck do you have anymore cinnamon candy?"

I rolled my eyes "Fridge."

Marco chuckled "I still love that Duckie...its cute."

I smiled "I had a mild obsession with ducks...my grandad started calling me Duckie and it kinda stuck.."

He nodded "Cute.."

I smiled as we sat around laughing and talking it was nice having the 6 most important men in my life in one place not counting my nephews...before long the others returned with food...I couldn't eat...I whispered to my sister-in-law Sarah who was an OB nurse "How do I know for sure I'm in labor?"
