"Morgan why don't you go get pregnant?" I ask watching her completely in love with my son. There wasn't a single time where she didn't ask about him or wanted to not be around him. She's obsessed with the baby and as cute as it is, I sometimes wonder why her boyfriend and her don't decide to just make a baby. She'd be an amazing mother.

"What?" She asks taken by surprise, "Its not that easy you know. I can't just get knock up because I want a baby" I raise my brow at her making her roll her eyes. "Just because you did it with your girlfriend doesn't mean I can" she argues "Or that its easy" she adds with a sigh.

I move and take a seat beside her, "Talk to me" she gnaw on her bottom lip gazing at Noah who's sitting on her lap chewing his Sophie. "Micheal and I have been having a few fights" she admits sadly, "That's why he hasn't exactly been coming here with me" she adds making me frown. "I thought you said he was the one for you and that he was planning on proposing?" She sighs and shrugs.

"I still think he is the one, we've just been having a bunch of misunderstandings and I'm scared one day he'll just have enough and leave" I glance at Noah and think about all the times Maya and I fought over silly things. All the insults we threw at each other during the heat of the moment and all the choices we regret because it hurt the other. All of it just made our bond stronger, we worked through it as a couple showing each other that we cared way too much to just give up on one another, it made our love for each other stronger.

"Morgan" I start taking her hand "As much as it sucks it's just a part of being in a relationship, you're always going have your own opinion on something that Michael might not agree with and that's okay because what matters is not the words you threw at each other but the effort you put in to show each other that a little fight or even a big one can't and will never come between the two of you" I explain "I've had a fair share of fights with Maya but I can't afford to lose her, I love her way too much and I need her in my life so I'd do practically anything just to make sure we stay together" Morgan smiles up at me in awe.

"A baby really changed you" she chuckles making me roll my eyes. "Even if Noah wasn't born, I would've still fought for her" I admit "She's my soulmate" I shrug.

"Where is she anyway?" She asks looking around the house, "She's organising Noah's bedroom, we're transitioning him to sleep in his crib now" I say proudly "Didn't he sleep in his crib before?" I shake my head "Only during his naps but at night he slept in the bassinet in Maya and I's bedroom, you know so he was closer to us making him feel more safe and comfortable" I explain making her nod in understanding.

"Why aren't you helping her?" She asks curiously "Because she's a little bit of a control freak and absolutely hates it when I don't place something where she wants it so I'm giving her, her space" Morgan rolls her eyes. "You should take her out on a date, that poor girl needs a night out" she suggest.

"Morgan last night was New Year's" I remind her but she shakes her head "I meant a romantic date little brother, not a party with family around" my brows raise showing her that I'm listening to her idea. "Go take her ice skating, I remember you always took her and Riley when you spent Christmas here and you'd always ramble about how much the blonde loves it" I smile brightly and nod.

"That's a great idea Morgan, in fact you gave me the perfect idea" I grin making her chuckle. "You're welcome little brother" I pull her in for a side hug and kiss her cheek, "Also remember if Michael is really the one fight for him not with him" her face softens and she nods, "You really are the best little brother a sister could ask for" I shrug "I try" she chuckles "Go ask your girlfriend on a date, I'll watch the baby with mom" she waves me off making me laugh.

I run up the stairs and head to my son's room expecting Maya to be almost done but I find her talking on the phone. "I love you mama" I hear her say, her eyes meet mine and as if possible they light up even more and I can't help but notice the way they sparkle. Her mom must've told her some good news because her eyes only sparkle that much when she's excited or thrilled about something. "I know thank you. Tell Evs I love her too and I'll see her tomorrow" she adds before nodding to something her mom said and saying goodbye before hanging up the phone.
