Part 12

Elle's pov

It was the day after we had found out we where expecting a child, I was very happy and emotional that it was happening so quickly. I had just got a hold on my job and was happy where I was going. But I've wanted to be a mother since I was little, it felt like home to me and what I'd do best. After all I didn't have the best upbringing and wanted my baby to have the best family surrounding her or him.

Dele has been beaming with energy since he found out, I'm kind of jealous because I feel sick and tired all of the time, deles mum sally said that it was normal for the first trimester. Deles already been thinking of names for him or her and he's so excited. I keep reminding him we have 7 or 8 months to go but that doesn't change his vibe. He has told some of the boys like Eric and Harry but we have kept in a close range. I've told Lucy and Katie, it felt right to tell the closest girls I have, Katie had made me so more reassured by telling me that it's the most wonderful thing that's ever happened to her.

My mum knows but she didn't really seem to care that much, I told my dad and it was the happiest I had ever seen him since he split with mum. They had a rough divorce because she cheated on him, I was always a daddy's girl as when I saw him so upset it broke my heart. Ever since then he had been distant from me but I'm hoping it will bring us closer me having a baby.

When I go out of the house fans have been taking photos of me which is worrying because we still haven't told them I'm expecting, we told Poch and he seemed so happy. But had to make sure Dele stayed focused to the team which I fully understood. He reminded me that when I get into my last couple months I will have to leave and come back after, I didn't want to leave work because I felt so happy around the boys and the stadium. Poch has been giving dele names for the baby and keeps bugging me with the name Leo, which I wasn't really keen on. We had been writing down names but we can't really decide until the baby is born.

Today was my first day at work since the game and it was chaos, I was being sick in the toilet every half an hour. I had so much paperwork to fill in after the games. Also I had to see to the boys injuries luckily there wasn't that many. It was my lunch break and it was the only time I had sat and had a break all day. I got into work at 7:30am and only just relaxed.

Dele strolled in with a cup of tea and a sandwich for me. "I didn't want you or the baby to be hungry. Got to take care of you both" he sat down next to me and ate the sandwich he had brought for him, I wasn't really hungry but I ate some of him to make him feel better

"Del baby I'm not really hungry" I pushed my food away and sipped on my tea

"Come on elle, you need to eat. There is two of you now" he smiled and kissed my forehead.

"Dele I've already eaten today" I lied but I really wasn't hungry

"Don't like to me I know you haven't" he pointed at me and laughed

"How'd you know?" I curiously asked him

"You started playing with your hair and you always do it when you lie" he stared at me and winked

"Since when did you know that?" I asked him again another question.

"I'm your boyfriend I know pretty much everything about you" he cupped my face and placed a kiss before leaving to go training again.

I didn't understand how one boy could make me feel so happy when he was around. He made me feel like there was nothing that could ever hurt me, or make me feel unsafe. He always made sure I was okay. And I was certain he would be a great father to our little one.

When the clock hit 5pm I was ready to go home, Dele picked me up from the car park and drove us home. On the way we where spotted by paps kissing, I knew we had to confess to dating when we got home.
