Joe soon hears someone coming up the stairs and he's ready to pounce and make Matthew jump.

He hears footsteps getting closer and closer until they walk into the bedroom.

He slows his breath and smirks to himself. The foot steps draw closer to the bed until he seems someone standing at the foot of the bed.

He waits a second watching before he reaches out and grabs the ankle infront of him.

Suddenly there's a scream but it's not Matthew, Joe suddenly panics and realised it's Niamh.

Niamh panics and jumps onto the bed. Joe realised what he's done and shuffled out from under the bed but gets stuck.

Niamh sees the top of someone's head coming out from under the bed and grabs a pillow and smacks him constantly. "Hey,hey, hey! Stop!" Joe shouts.

"Joe?" Niamh asks as she stops.

"Bloody hell woman... you trying to kill me?" Joe pants as he looks up at her

"Sorry... anyway what are you doing grabbing me like that" she giggles as she looks down at him.

"I thought you was Matthew" he admits.

"Do I look like Matthew? Yes I know I have size 4 feet but not child's feet" Niamh giggles.

"I didn't really focus that much, I just knew Matthew would be looking for me" Joe laughs.

"Right" she says and raises an eyebrow.

"Now if you wouldn't mind... I'm stuck... help me?" Joe smiles.

Niamh shakes her head and grabs her phone from out her pocket. "What are you doing!" Joe laughs.

"Not helping you for a start" she giggles.

"No, no your not taking a photo" Joe panics.

"Oh it's even better... a video for Instagram" she laughs.

Niamh opens her camera up and starts to record herself. "So my husband thought it would be a good idea to try and get me to go into early labour... he hid under the bed and terrified the life out of me" Niamh smirks before adding it to her story and then recording Joe struggling to get from under the bed.

Niamh can't stop giggling as she watches him give her a look as he struggles.

"Fucking pass me that phone" he laughs as he grabs her phone and locks it before shoving it down his trousers.

"Oh don't be a spoil sport" she laughs.

"Help me then" Joe smirks.

"And what, miss seeing you struggle" she teases as she gets off the bed.

"Niamh... we're getting a divorce" he teases.

"Oh come off it Joe you know that's not true" Niamh smirks.

"Oh really" Joe laughs.

"Yes I know you love me too much" she laughs.

"Well if you loved me you'd help me" he laughs as he finally manages to free himself.

"You know I do" she smiles and goes in for a hug.

Joe smiles at her "I'm knackered now" Joe chuckles.

"Have a rest and lay down, all that struggle wore you out" she smirks.

"I'm so out of shape" he puffs as he collapses down on the bed.

"Yeah, when I first met you... you was well in shape, look at you now" she teases.

"Your so horrible to me" Joe laughs.

Niamh laughs and sits beside him, "you're just with me for the great sex" Niamh chuckles.

"Well that is a perk" Joe smirks and receives a playful hit on the arm from Niamh.

"Cruel aren't I" she smiles as she lies next to him and Joe embraces her in a hug.

They relax there for a few moments just enjoying the moment.

The peace is suddenly broken by Matthew bursting in and shouts loudly "found you!"

"Oh Matthew you found me" Joe laughs.

"Daddy that was a silly hiding place! I can see you!" He squeals with delight as he clambers up onto the bed and sits between Joe and Niamh.

"I was hiding behind mummy!" Joe smiles.

Matthew looks at Niamh and then back at Joe. "That doesn't work!! Mummy is smaller than you" he giggles.

"Then I don't think I'm very good at hide and seek" Joe laughs.

"Oh" Matthew sighs.

"Mummy did you want to play" Matthew smiles.

"Not right now matty I need to rest" Niamh laughs.

Matthew huffs "you're so lazy mummy!" He protests and gets off the bed and walks off.

"That's you told" Joe sniggers.

"Tell me about it, I could just fall asleep... but I need a shower and I need to do the ironing... and I need to sort out Matthew wardrobe" she moans.

"There's all day to do that, why don't I make you some lunch first" Joe smiles.

Niamh rolls onto her side and looks up at him. "If you want too" she smiles.

"What do you want" Joe asks.

"We've got a small time on pâté... I shall have it on toast" Niamh smiles.

"Your very demanding this morning aren't you" he smirks.

"You mean your baby is being demanding" Niamh laughs as she gets up and grabs a clean towel out the airing cupboard

"Yeah sure" he laughs and goes to the kitchen.

Niamh then walks into the ensuite and locks the door. She undresses herself and turns the shower on.

She gets in the shower while Joe prepares her lunch.

Once out the shower she dries her hair and changes into something more comfortable and heads downstairs.

"Lunch is ready and on the table along with a refreshing drink" Joe smiles.

"Oh aren't you a good one" she laughs.

"I am aren't I" Joe smiles cheekily.

Niamh smiles and sits herself down at the table before starting to eat.

"I bet your family are pleased that we're off to Ireland soon" Joe smiles.

"I can't wait, just to be back there again will make me happy. Just need to relax now" Niamh smiles with a mouthful of pâté.
