Harper woke up and glanced to see that it was just before eight. "Tom, wake up we're going to be late" Harper said as tom groaned as he woke up, he saw the time as they hurried to get dressed. Tom ran down the stairs and saw josh who was standing eating a piece of toast. "You could of woke me" tom said as josh looked to him and rolled his eyes as Harper walked into the room and they exchanged a look and smirked that josh saw "it's disgusting that your still doing it, I mean isn't there an age that you are past it dad" josh said as tom looked to him offended "your only as old as you feel" tom said as Harper looked to tom and smirked as josh looked to them in disgust "you both make me want to be sick" he said as he walked to the door "it's not like we're doing it in front of him" Harper said as tom chuckled.

Harper and tom walked out of the house and smiled as they saw Nate. "Do you two want a lift? If we aren't too embarrassing?" Tom asked as Harper looked to him"speak for yourself" Harper said as she got into the car. "So what do you think is going on with josh and Nate?" Tom asked as Harper looked to her and smirked "he's your son, if you want to know what's going on then you are going to have to ask him" Harper said.

Harper got to work as Tom sighed to himself as Harper looked to him and frowned "what?" She asked as he looked to her "I'm worried over josh and Nate, I mean I know I said I was okay with him being gay and I am trying to be and act fine but it's hard" tom said as Harper looked to him and smiled "your a good dad tom, you are and our baby is going to be lucky to have you, but you need to let josh grow and be his own person and let him grow" Harper said as tom looked to her and smiled. "How about we go out and give josh and Nate the place to themselves I can take you to the new pizza place that you have been moaning on at me to go" tom said as Harper smirked "if you buy me dessert" she said seductively as he pulled her close and kissed her "I thought you were dessert" tom teased.

Harper walked down the hall with Madison as she talked over tom and josh. She heard the sound of fighting "isn't that tom?" Madison said as Harper looked who was fighting with someone. She walked over and frowned as she realised that it was Nate's dad. Madison looked to her and smiled "leave it, tom will calm Nate's dad down" Madison said as Harper nodded as they walked down the hall towards the staffroom. "Is tom okay?" Madison asked as Harper looked to her and smiled "he's going through a lot, and I feel as if things are going to get worse" Harper said as Madison looked to her and Frowned "how come?" She asked as Harper looked to her with tears in her eyes "I haven't felt the baby move" Harper said as Madison looked to her and smiled. She could see how upset she was "come on we'll go and get you check out" Madison said as Harper nodded.

Harper sighed to herself as she and Madison walked out of the hospital. Harper had been giving the all clear and her baby was healthy. Harper looked to her phone and frowned as she saw missed calls off of Tom "thanks for coming Madison, I better go and find tom" Harper said as she hugged Madison "don't worry about it" Madison said. Harper got to be pub and smiled as she found tom "why didn't you tell me about the scare, I would of came with you" tom said as Harper looked to him and smiled "I know, I was scared it was something" Harper said as he looked to her and smiled as he pulled her into a hug and smiled.

Harper watched as she saw Nate's dad who walked over to tom and punched him "tom" she said as Nate's dad started to stack him and walked off. Harper looked to tom and helped him up "it's okay, I'm going to get you home" she said. Harper got a taxi home and helped tom into the house. She helped him into the kitchen and spotted josh and Nate"dad" josh said as Harper cleaned tom up. She could see that he was in pain "what happened" josh asked as Harper glanced to Nate "your dad is a nutter" Harper said as she looked to tom, hoping that he would be okay.
