27th July

Later that day, around 3pm, Steven came to pick me and the girls up.

"I have some clothes for you," Steven said handing me a backpack,

"Thanks Dad,"

"I love hearing that," He said laughing, the girls laughed along as I walked into the bathroom to get changed. He had bought an acceptable outfit, my black overalls (memories), a plain white top and black converse.

"Nice choice Steve," Gemma said nodding her head at my outfit,

"Thanks, I try," He said, we all laughed and I put the backpack on my back,

"Can we go? I don't like this place," I asked,

"Of course," Steve said.

We sat in the car in silence. I was 5 weeks pregnant and starting to show a tiny bit. The hospital did a scan early this morning so I have two pictures. One for me and one for Cal.

"Calum and the boys are waiting for you," Steve said,

"Really?"

"Yeah, they brought your stuff by this morning and were helping put it away and tidy your room,"

"Aww," Gemma cooed, we all laughed and shook our heads. I looked at Jen who smiled at me but I couldn't shake off the feeling that soon she would be in London not Sydney.

"Come on we're home," Steven said happily, he was being extremely (oddly) happy for someone whose 23 year relationship had come to an end only hours before.

"Okay," I said getting out of the car and grabbing my backpack. I walked to the door and opened it up immediately being greeted by the smell of cookies,

"COOKIES!" I shouted, I heard laughter from the kitchen so I ran there,

"Calum!" I shouted running over and hugging him,

"Hey, it's been a day," He said laughing,

"I know,"

"Do you want a cookie?"

"Yes where are they?" I asked, Luke handed me one and I smiled at him,

"Thank you Hemmings," I answered taking a bite of it,

"You're welcome," He laughed,

"Hey," Jen said walking in with Gemma trailing behind her looking at something that wasn't in the room,

"Hey," Ashton smiled walking over to her and giving her a kiss, my heart panged so I looked away. Soon she'll be gone I thought.

"You okay?" Calum asked,

"Yeah just didn't want to look at people kissing, blugh," I answered, he laughed and wrapped his arms around me,

"I have something for you," I said grabbing the backpack and pulling out the ultrasound, he looked at it and started to cry,

"Why are you crying?" I asked laughing and wiping away his tears with my thumbs,

"Because yesterday I thought it was gone and it isn't, it's here and I can see it,"

"Aww," I cooed cuddling into him. We looked at the picture for a long time, everyone around us was talking about some TV show but we were snuggling into each other while we stared at a picture of our baby, a baby we thought was gone only hours before.

"I love it already," Calum whispered close to my ear,

"Me too,"

"I can't believe it,"
