Liam's P.O.V
I just got of the phone with my boss. Seems like there are problems at the branch overseas and I would need to go and try and fix these again. They apparently specifically asked for me because of how I handled the problems the last time. I doubt if this is true. He likes sugar coating everything to get you to do what he wants done. I don't think I will be at the firm much longer. I just need to find another job first before I resign.Yes, we have money, but working a job keeps the mind busy and the bank accounts filled up. How do you think rich people stay rich?Convientely the time I need to go and help is the same time as Anne's second tour, so I can go along and keep an eye on her and make sure she isn't overdoing it, especially with her now having to do the treatment course as well when we are in the same place as I'm going to be stationed at the head offices and she will be moving around doing shows. I don'tAnne's P.O.VLiam finally agreed to join and help me execute the plan I had in mind. I know I didn't play fair using the look he can't say no to, but as soon as this is done I'm done with this plan of mine, I'm going to get him a job at Jones Incorporated and then we can have more time together and he can get away from that horrible boss of his and come and work for mum and me. At least there I would be allowed to go and visit him for lunch in his office and we wouldn't have to go out and have lunch at a restaurant each and every afternoon. I had already cleared it with mum and she said that she didn't mind and would try and find him a position that would fit. We have agreed that I have one last show left and that we would set my plan into motion today. My car would break down in the street of their house and the other people wouldn't be home or wouldn't open their doors when I knocked for help. I would be taking it from ther
Ernie's P.O.VAfter dad bailed me out, I told mum I didn't feel like talking about it just yet and I promised that we would be talking about it tomorrow or later. I just wanted to be left alone for a little while. I didn't mean to hit him, it's just that he was insulting mum and saying horrible things about her and dad's relationship because apparently, he and mum went to high school together. I knew that mum had me at an early age and that there is an age difference between mum and dad but he mentioned something about twins. Mum never told me that I was part of a set of twins or maybe this guy just wanted me to think of things and wanted to make me mad enough so he could get rid of me and get his son in my position. As I walked up the stairs my intentions were to go straight to my room and think about everything that bastard had to say and to think about how I would be asking mum about this. Dad wouldn't answer me. I learned that
Elizabeth's P.O.VShe just needs to have so many friends that want to hang out with her. How am I supposed to keep her here at home so I can get to know her if she is out partying with them every chance she gets.It’s as if she cannot say no because every single time one of them calls, there she goes ready and willing to join them in whatever they want to go and do."My besties invited me to go clubbing with them, so no need to make dinner for me or wait up. I might be back a little late tonight."" Okay honey. Would you mind taking Ernie with you? He hasn't been out much the last few weeks and getting out might do him some good. Maybe he could meet a girl. ""I actually was going to ask him along, so yeah it's absolutely fine for him to come along."I was really happy that she didn't argue with me on this one. If Ernie goes with her, he can at least be my eyes and ears and protect his sister.
A few hours laterLiam's P.O.VEverything is going according to plan. Anne is getting drunk as we speak, and I don't need to be drunk. I can successfully act drunk. I have been in situations before where I had to act drunk just to save my ass, but let's not go there now. Here comes Ernie. Time to start actingAnd ACTION!"Anne, it's two in the morning. Come on, let's head home, please."Before she could answer, I decided to make myself known to Ernie that I was also going home with them."Come on little missy, let's get you home"I said in my most drunk voice and hoped that it sounded believable enough so that this last part of the plan can finally be done with, and we can go on holiday. I really want my wife back and I can't wait for tomorrow morning when we can finally leave here. Anne decided that she needed to maybe answer Ernie."Fine, but you’re coming or I'm not
Anne's P.O.VI heard Elizabeth following me and Liam up the stairs and I let her follow me. I had needed to speak to her and Arnold as I had intended about the cancer before, we left, as that was the whole reason for this visit and the elaborate plan that had been followed.As soon as me and Liam were in the room, she came in and asked the one question I knew she was going to ask."How did you find out who we were? The adoption was sealed, and I couldn't get any information from there to find out who you were?"I laughed."Of course, the adoption was sealed because you did it. Don't start acting all innocent now. You didn't want me finding you guys after you gave me up. I would really like to know what was so wrong with me that I was given away, but Ernie was kept?"Elizabeth looked confused. She told me that she never asked for the adoption to be marked as closed because she was planning and has been trying to
Six weeks later Kate's P.O.V (Liam's Mother)We are finally meeting Anne today. I know it's our own fault that we haven't met her, but it still doesn't count. We are busy people, and they can't expect us to always be available when they have a do or a party to which they invite us. Liam invited us in, but with a warning that Anne was very sick and still in bed. He doesn't know what is wrong yet and they will be going to the doctor later that day. They apparently didn't have a lot of sleep as she was up most of the night but she finally fell asleep about two hours ago.I think it's not sick sick it's pregnant sick. They have been married quite a while. Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong, but I'll know as soon as I see her.Liam's P.O.V"Mom, dad, welcome to our house!""Thank you for having us. Now, where is your wife?"I rolled my eyes. I 'wasn't having them'. I was forced because they wanted to make nice.After the greetings, I made sure to warn them to be nice and not expect Anne to
Anne's P.O.VI walked downstairs keeping a hold on the railing so I wouldn't fall to my death. I could hear voices in the living room, so that is where I would need to go. Once I got to the bottom of the stairs, I called out to Liam to come and help me over to the couches, as there wasn't really anything to keep a hold on.He ran over and took me to the couches where his parents were sitting. His mother stood up as we got closer and helped Liam get me in a comfortable position."Do you want a glass of juice, honey?"I smiled at his mother and answered her that I was fine at the moment. Thank you.She gave me a hug and went to sit next to her husband again, while Liam sat down next to me."I'm sorry I'm not better dressed for the first time meeting you. It's just that Liam and I, we... we have just been hoping and praying that..." Liam took hold of my hand and squeezed it in support."I don'
Anne's P.O.VI was so shocked to hear what the doctor had said that I didn't know how to react. I felt Liam helping me up and out and I heard him thanking the doctor but I was still a little in shock. I'm pregnant! There is a little human growing in my tummy.I must say Liam is even more excited than I am and he doesn't look mad at all. We haven't really had the how many and when kids talk, so I wasn't one hundred percent sure that he was okay with this and all but his excitement told me that I did indeed not need to worry about him being mad or upset. In fact, it was sort of half his own fault if he would have been upset. You know it takes two to tango and he willingly joined in.Mum is just overjoyed because she is going to become a granny and, in her exact words, 'someone to help keep her young once more'. I just wish that dad could have been here to see this. I still miss him a lot but try to hide it
