No More Lonely Nights
Prologue

Abby and Carter are married, happily. Carby!

"Look Susan, life just isn't the same now. I can't just go out whenever I want." Abby looked at me, knowing I could hear he, and knowing I'd say she could go out.

"Of course you can go out sweetie," I gave her a kiss on the cheek and walked of smiling. I couldn't help it. Today I couldn't stop smiling. Today felt special, like we should be celebrating, me and Abby.

I suppose I've never stopped smiling since I married Abby. Life just hasn't been the same. It's more interesting. She keeps me on my toes all right!

"Um, John," ut-oh. "Could Susan stay over tonight?" She was like a kid wanting her best friend over.

"Do I have a choice?" Abby just shifted from foot to foot. "You've already said she can, haven't you."

"Well yeah. But it's ok if she can't." Here come the puppy dog eyes.

"Of course she can." I am such a pushover.

"Great. John, I've got something to tell you."

"What?" The suspense was terrible.

"Don't over react. I'm, pregnant."

"Abby, oh," I picked her up and swung her round, over the moon. Life has never been better.
