Ok guys this is my first story, don't know if it will be any good so please rate and review to help me. If you have any story suggestions I would love to hear them as well.

Carla and peter had been together publicly for three months now. Leanne had moved away to London to stay with friends after leaving Peter and 11 year old Simon was living with Carla and Peter in their flat.

Chapter 1

'Carls don't you think that we should thinking to move out the flat and get a house of our own' Peter looked anxiously at Carla as he didn't know what her reaction would be like.

'Why would we need to? The flat is big enough for us three' Carla was confused as she loved her small but sophisticated flat in Weatherfield.

'Yeah babes you're right, I don't know what I was thinking'

Carla had been like this ever since they got together, she knew the real reason why Peter wanted to move and that was the one word that terrified her KIDS. Carla had never really thought about them because she didn't have time for them in her busy career, I guess she did want them eventually but not yet.

'Pete I'm just popping out to see Chelle, I'll call you later' Carla didn't give Peter time to answer she just left and went straight to the Rovers. Carla knew that Michelle was always there to talk to her about anything, they had been best friends since they were children.

'Chelle I don't want to break Peters' heart but I can't do this anymore' Carla's eyes began to fill with tears.

'Can't do what anymore Hun, what's wrong?'

'Peter wants to move and start a family but you know how I feel about having children, he really wants this Chelle and I don't know how to tell him that I don't feel the same way about this, I don't want to lose him again.'

'Look Carls you have to talk to him about this, do you really not want children, not even with the man you love?'

'yeah I guess but just not yet, so much is going on and with Petes' drinking I don't think I would be right to raise a child yet'

'Tell him this then and he'll try to get sorted, he loves you Carla and he would do anything for you'

Carla left shortly after this and took a slow walk back to the flat, she had never felt so nervous before and she didn't even know why.

'Carla babe I was getting worried, is everything ok?' Peter knew that something wasn't right, he just wanted his girlfriend to be happy.

'Peter sit down, look about what you said earlier about moving. I do want to move in with you, of course I do, I love you. But I know why you want to move, I know you want children, it's just with the drinking and my job I don't want to start a family yet, I mean I have to get Simon to like me first.

'Carla, I didn't mean that we have to have children straight away, I'm going to get help, actually I have been getting help, I'm really committed to us and our family with Simon'

At this moment Simon came in he said hi to his dad but ignored Carla as usual and went straight to him room.

'Peter we have to get this sorted between Simon and I, we just can't go on like this'

'I know babe, I know'

Carla was wrapped up in Peters arms on the sofa, they sat there for a while before things started to heat up and they went to the bedroom…..

2 months later

Carla had been bonding a lot more with Simon over the last few months, she picked him up from school most days and they went to get a pizza. Peter had been attending his support groups every week and he was really improving. They were starting look at houses for the three of them to move in to which was really exciting for them.

Peter woke up alone in their bed, confused as to where Carla was. All of sudden he heard the toilet flush and a grey looking Carla appeared from the bathroom.

'Carla, are you ok? You look terrible' Peter was worried about Carla as she had been doing this a lot recently.

'Gee thanks Peter, I think I'm going to go the doctors today, I can't keep having days off work'

'Well I'm coming with you then' He didn't want Carla to go through this on her own, he wanted to be with her to support her.

'Carla Connor' Carla didn't want Peter to come in with her as she liked to do things on her own, she had always been independent.

'So Carla how can I help you today'

'Well I've been feeling nauseous constantly for weeks now and it has got to the point where I only have to smell food and I'm running to the bathroom'

'And may I ask Carla, when was the last time that you had your period?'

'I'm on the pill so it is irregular and I think about 2-3 months ago' Carla hadn't thought about this before, she never paid any attention to this but then she realised why she was being asked this.

'Carla the tests have come back positive, you're pregnant Carla'

Carla's blood ran cold, how could she be pregnant, she was on the pill and her and Peter were always careful. How was she going to tell Peter?
