A few hours later, they've landed and Matthew has fallen asleep in his seat.
"Oh Joe, look at him. It's going to be a shame to wake him" Niamh smiles as she nudges Joe.

"I'll carry him, see if he'll stay asleep" Joe smiles.

Niamh nods smiles, she stands up with Maisie in her arms and smiles. "Here Niamh let me help you" Barbara smiles as she grabs the bags that Niamh is trying to grab.

Barbara walks down the isle first with the bags as Niamh follows behind with Maisie.

"She was golden" the air stewardess smiles as Niamh passes them. Niamh smiles awkwardly and walks off the plane and down the stairs.

Niamh waits inside the airport with her mum while waiting for Joe with Matthew as he's got their passes.

"Hurry up Joe" Niamh says as she's starting to get cold.

Joe smiles as he catches up, "Give me time, your son is heavy... what have you been feeding him? Stones?" Joe pants as he walks to them.

"I just give him his meals" Niamh laughs.

Joe smirks and tries to hold Matthew in a different position to make it easier to carry him.

They get passed the gates and collect their bags. "I wish he would wake up" Joe groans as they wait for a taxi.

"Is he breathing?" Niamh smirks.

"Yes and practically dead weight" Joe huffs.

Niamh smirks and kisses his cheek. "You love carrying him really" She smiles as they get into the taxi.

"Excuse me lady, your baby needs to be in a car seat" the taxi driver speaks up as he notices the small bundled baby in her arms.

"Oh we haven't got a car seat..." Niamh says and looks at Joe.

"Yeah unexpected arrival when we was in Ireland" Joe smiles.

"Congratulations but I don't think I'll be able to take you anywhere without a car seat" the driver says.

"Fine" Niamh says as she gets back out and looks at Joe. He could tell how tired she is and that she could flip at any moment.

"Look we'll find a way okay" he smiles.

"We better" Niamh huffs.

"How about I pop home grab your car seat and bring it back" Barbara questions.

"Or I go home, get the car and car seat and come back?" Joe suggests also.

"That would be helpful, me and mum can wait in that coffee shop" Niamh suggests.

Joe nods and kisses Niamh's cheek. "I shall take Matthew with me" he replies.

"I won't be long" he says and kisses her head before leaving.

Niamh smiles and heads back to the cafe with her Mum. Niamh goes and sits at a table with Maisie as Barbara goes and gets the drinks.

"Soon darling" Niamh smiles happily down at Maisie in her arms.

Maisie starts gurgling in Niamh's arms as Niamh gently rocks her. Barbara comes back with the two cups of tea and sits with Niamh. "Here let me hold her for a while. Let your arms rest" Barbara smiles.

"Ah thank you" Niamh smiles as she passes her to Barbara.

Niamh smiles and sips her tea and watches Barbara with Maisie. "It feels good to be back" Niamh smiles.

"It does. You can finally settle too" Barbara smiles as she looks down at Maisie admiring her.

"Thank you for coming with us" Niamh smiles.
