By the time Janette woke up the next morning, Aljaz was lying in bed with Noah asleep on his chest. Janette rolled over and started stroking Noah's hand with her thumb. "How long have you been awake?" "A while. Noah started to stir, I didn't want him to start crying and wake you up as you looked so peaceful and that you needed the sleep so I went to get him and brought him back to bed where he's fallen asleep." "Aww, that's really sweet. I wouldn't have minded if he'd woken me up, he probably needs feeding but I'm not complaining about the extra sleep. That's the first time I've slept in ages since the night where Karen stayed with Noah at the hospital." "I knew you hadn't slept much so I was giving you the opportunity to. Plus it gave me some time with Noah to think about things." "Your not leaving us are you? I couldn't bear it without you" "of course I'm not. You're my Princess and Noah's my prince and I wouldn't be without either of you." "Tell me what you were thinking please. I don't care how bad it was, I just wanna know." "Just how much I've let you both down and leaving you alone at the hospital when I should have been there for you and Noah." "It was your way of dealing with everything. I know it wasn't easy for either of us but we're not going to think about it anymore and we're going enjoy our day together just the three of us" "I love you Janette Manrara" "not as much as I love you Aljaz skorjanec"

"what do you want to do today princess?" Aljaz asked as Janette rewoke up. She'd fed Noah then rolled over and gone back to sleep after her conversation with Aljaz who had let her. "Hmmmmmm" Janette took the question extremely seriously. "I want to spend the day watching tv with the two important men in my life." "How about I make us something to eat then we can spend the day in bed watching Disney films?" "I like that idea. Is Noah back asleep?" "He is. You stay here and I'll go get us some food. I won't be long." Janette got up to get the tv remote to decide on what to watch.

When Aljaz came back, he put the tray on his bedside table while he got into bed then gave Janette her pancakes. "You know you didn't have to go to so much trouble, we could have just had toast." "I know but I'm going to make more of an effort to support and be there for you and not just think about myself." "Listen to me Aljaz Skorjanec, I love you just the way you are and you don't have to change for anyone" "what are we watching first?" "Beauty and the beast of course"

They spent the whole day in bed watching Disney films back to back. They only moved to go to the bathroom, get something to eat or to get Noah from his cot.

It was the perfect day that they wanted.
