I looked across the arena at my man, proud to see him wearing his coaches uniform, the GB logo clear to all watching as he talked with Teddy, who was waiting for her turn to shoot.

She had missed the last Olympics despite making the team, as she had been pregnant at the time and wasn't allowed to fly.  It had been a blow to both her and Paul but they were here this time and we had all come in support. I checked around me and laughed. Grandpa Kingswood was sat with Teddy's parents watching the five year old twins Hunter and Maxwell wrestle in the grass, while Milo held three year old Paris in the shade watching Teddy, Niko and Luka at his side, one year old Geneva asleep in her pram between them.  I knew they wanted more babies but she had demanded a break, much to everyones amusement.  We all know as soon as this olympic's was over, she would be pregnant again within weeks, she loved carrying their babies and they loved her.

I rested my hand on my stomach, excitement filling me at the news I had yet to share with anyone.
"Lucy come and sit with us, have a drink, it's very warm" Olivia appeared at my side and I followed her back to the others, accepting the water Duncan passed me.
I caught Olivia's eye and she smiled at me and I wondered if she suspected, I bit my tongue wanting to tell her, as she was a mother to me but I had to tell Paul first. I also didn't want to take away their concentration on the games.
I heard Paris cheer for her mummy and turned to watch as Teddy stepped forward to compete. Paul watching from the sidelines as she took her shots.  The reaction from the crowd confirming what we knew, she had placed for a medal, we just had to wait to see which one.
An hour later and everyone had competed and we were waiting for the results to be announced, Teddy had won silver and we all cheered as she accepted her medal, watched as pictures were taken, then they were released to join us, Teddy being surrounded by the children and her men as Paul scooped me up and kissed me senseless. "I love you" he whispered in my ear "Marry Me my love" I felt him slide a ring onto my finger and looked down to see a stunning Emerald ring.
"Yes" I cried to him as he swung me round in joy "yes" I repeated as he stopped to kiss me again.
I smiled up at him and lifted up to whisper to him, "I have some news too... I'm pregnant"
I feel him freeze before whooping loudly and picking me up, drawing the attention of everyone around us.
"We're getting married and we're pregnant" he shouts and we laugh as our friends crowd around us with congratulations.
That night we celebrated Teddy's win and our news and made plans for the future, a future we would face together.

After a busy six months later, in which once again Teddy finds out she's pregnant and Paul and I move into a house with a garden, hiring some more staff to help with the both the charity work and the sports management company we had started together. I finally felt ready, good job too, as just weeks after moving in, we welcome our own set of twins, a boy and a girl Lily and Logan.

The End.
