"I know I know I know, the public haven't always favoured me that much anyway I don't know why it would be different now. I just hate the idea that I'm walking through a room of people who think that I'm after your money and that I'd use a baby to secure some of it" Amelia replies with a slight frow
Amelia's P.O.VThe one thing I have grown to hate about summer being over is driving home from work as the sun goes down, it makes me feel like a bad mum. I can't quite explain how, but something about pulling into the driveway with my headlights on makes me feel so sad, knowing that the sun has ris
Juni still has yet to say 'mama' or anything else, and it would be a fair assessment to say that I'm not dealing well with all of this. Rhode's reassurance and support definitely helped things, but missing something this momentous has me slowly spiraling back into some major self doubt territories.
"You're not bored to death by the likes of 'Peppa Pig' or 'Cocomelon' yet?" Bianca asks with amusement. Even the mention of Theo's favourite show piques his interest as his head lifts up away from the babies and into the direction of his mum."Oh god no, I'd never subject myself to that. We don't r
You know that Genevieve's first word was 'poo' right? Gem was carrying her past the bathroom while I was potty training Theo and she just screams out 'poo' as loud as she could". Bryan says with a half laugh. "Of course a first word is important, but it doesn't mean everything in the world. She didn
"To be honest, I feel anxious about taking her out on my own" Rhode states honestly as we wait at the corner for our crosswalk light to turn green. It's a surprising admission that immediately gets my attention."You've never mentioned anything like that" I express as I put a hand on his arm while h
"Hey, you remember yesterday when we had the family over for lunch?" I say just as we approach the small coffee stand near the fountain at the centre of the park. It's run by a father and son out of a truck that normally attracts a large crowd of locals but today seems a little isolated, supposed we
"Thank you" I mumble against his lips, brushing my nose against his. His hand lingers on my hip as I come down off of my tiptoes, the wind blowing some of my hair into my face."I'll support you either way, it's up to you" He softly states, his eyes never leaving mine as his hand leaves my hip and t
"Wanna give one a go?" I suggest to her with a small grin."Might be a bit premature, don't think Max is the marriage type quiet yet" She responds with a quiet giggle, then catches herself as we all stop and gape at her. She hasn't mentioned Max in that context in a very long time. Behind Poppy, Fra
"It's stunning sweetheart, absolutely stunning" My mum comments excitedly as I allow my hands to rest at my sides, my reflection making my heart race quickly. I'm wearing a wedding dress. Maybe not the wedding dress, but a wedding dress none the less. It all seems insane to think that I had spent th
Fran, Bianca and now Sarah are at the racks, perhaps browsing for me or for Fran, who recently moved to London and is flat hunting with her boyfriend Zayn."They have wedding dresses at charity shops? I can't tell if that's bleak or romantic" Poppy comments quietly to me as I sit down beside her."
"You are referred to as exactly what you are, a man, while I am referred to as my relationship to you, a wife. Like the only identifiable thing about me is that now I am your wife but you still get to be a man in your own right" I explain. It's something that's always irked me while watching TV show
"You forget we had sex in a bookstore?" Rhode leans in close and murmurs to me, heat rising on my cheeks instantly. One of my wilder moments I would say."Did not forget that, but I'd rather not have to explain that story to, well anyone" I say with an embarrassed giggle. I definitely told at least
"Please, take it" He states in a soft tone that makes butterflies flit around my stomach. "When?" He adds with a little more urgency."How about, before the years end?" I suggest. It's early October now so going into the colder England months, it's not exactly going to be extraordinary weather but t
