Josephines pov
' Georgie, stop it ' i say with a stern voice. Hero left 5 days ago for a 10 day long campagne in Rome. He didn't want to go, he wanted to be here with me and do this together, but i insisted that he did go. I am pregnant, and i have a one year old, but i can do it. He is only a flight away, but i don't want him to come home. I want him to do the work he loves, and live his life with doing things beside spending time with his family. Georgie has been really challenging, throwing food around while eating and run around constantly. I still have to deal with my morning sickness and tiredness, so i would like it she behaved a little. My thoughts get interrupted by an incoming face time call, and a smile spreads onto my face as i see it displays Hero's name. I place Georgie on my lap before i answer. ' Hey sweethearts ' he says as soon as he sees us. Georgie starts smiling when she realizes it's her dad on the screen and starts reaching for the screen with her small hands. ' Are you missing daddy? ' Hero says with a smile. ' Not only Georgie is missing you, i miss you too ' i say with a soft smile. I place Georgie down, so she can play, before i refocus on the call. ' How are you doing Jo? You look tired and stressed ' he says, with a little worry. ' Well, i could deny it, but i am ' i sigh. ' Georgie has been running around, and if i take my eyes off her for more than a second, she is gone. She is trying to climb the stairs, and a lot of other things. She has also found out that i hate it when she throws food around, so even more of a reason to keep doing it. My morning sickness is still around, and i feel tired all the time ' i say. I come to the realization that i'm only talking about me, not even asking about how he is doing. ' Shit, i'm sorry, i'm only talking about myself, i didn't mean to do that ' i gush. ' Jo, baby, i really care about me right now. In fact, i decided to work longer days so i could come back earlier ' Hero says. ' Hero, this is the exact reason why everything is always about me, i do- ' I say but quickly get cut off. ' Jo, i'm not gonna argue with you over face time. I got the opportunity and took it. I work 3 hours longer each day, which will give me the ability to leave in 2 days. You are pregnant Jo, and have a toddler running around who doesn't quite listen yet. I will come back in 2 days, so i'll be home Thursday night. Jo, i wish you would stop being so selfless, i really wish you would ' he says with a soft voice. ' I just don't get why you would do that, let alone do it for me ' i whisper. ' Because i love you. I love you so much, that's why ' he says with a small smile. We talk a little more, and exchange i love you's and goodbyes. Only 2 days until he comes home, and i'm complete again.

2 days later - Hero's pov
As i unlock the door i hear someone coming closer. As i close the door behind me and turn around, i see a smiling Jo with Georgie on her hip. I rush over to them and pull them into a hug. ' We missed you so much ' Jo whisper as i kiss her hair and stroke Georgies cheek. ' I missed you guys more ' i say before placing a kiss on Jo's lips and taking Georgie from her. Jo turns around to walk to the living room, and i see her bump. She has grown this pastweek, a lot. When i left you could barely see a thing, but now you see a clear bump. ' Wow Jo, you've really grown over these past days ' i say with big smile. She turns back a little and smiles at me. ' I know, now we're for sure there's a baby inside of me ' she jokes. I leave my suitcases in the hallway for now and walk into the living room, and i feel Georgie wrap her arms around my neck and rest her head on my shoulder. ' Like mother like daughter ' i say with a soft smile. ' She really missed you, you could sense that ' Jo replies. ' Did she behave for these past few days? ' i ask her. ' It's still the same as the last time we talked about it, she is just finding out her abilities to climb and annoy me i guess ' Jo says, and i see a small smile on her lips. ' Even though she was a little tough this week, it made me realize how fast the time passes. I remember when she was placed on chest and i held her, while hearing her first cry. Now she is trying to climb the stairs, and throws food around because she knows i hate it, she talks. I just don't want her to grow up so quick ' Jo says, with a mix of happiness and sadness. I pull her into a hug and whisper 'i love you' to her. Before she can say anything back, Georgie says ' love you ', which makes both me and Jo smile like idiots. ' Mommy and daddy love you so much, don't forget that, ever ' Jo says as she kisses her cheek. ' Love you ' Georgie says again, not having single idea how much it warms our hearts.
