The Lane Family

Authors note: Hi! I realised the other day that there aren't actually that many stories about Ed and Sophie and I had some ideas for one so I've decided to write one! Enjoy and don't forget to review :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Flashpoint or any of its characters.

Ed Lane was woken from his deep sleep by the sound of his dreaded alarm clock. He freed one of his hands from his wife's and hit the alarm clock to make it stop. With the sound now gone, Ed lay still for a few seconds before trying to get his hand, that he had placed back into his wife's, free.

"Sophie." He whispered softly into her ear. "Soph I need to get up sweetheart." Sophie mumured in her sleep and held onto Ed tighter. "Soph."
"What?" She muttered into her pillow, dragging out the 'a'.
"I need to get up sweetheart."
"No you don't."
"I do. Workout starts in less an hour and you know I like to be there before that."
"Edward the world is not going to end if you and your buddies miss a few push ups."
"Sophie you know that I need to pick Wordy up on the way so I need to go now." Ed reasons with her but Sophie just shakes her head.
"What are they going to do, demote you to rubber bullets if you arrive five minutes late for a workout?" She questions, still half asleep.
"Sophie..." Ed sighs.
"Fine. Get up. Go to work. Save the world. Do what you need to do just let me go back to sleep." Sophie snaps, shoving Ed's hands away.
"I love you." Ed tries but she just ignores him, clearly not in a very good mood.
"Hey, I'm going now, call me if you need anything." Ed whispers half an hour later, kissing Sophie on the forehead before beginning to walk out the bedroom door.
"I love you." Sophie calls
"I love you too." Ed replies before making his way downstairs.

"Hey." Ed greets as Wordy gets into the car and waves to Shelley.
"Morning." Wordy replies buckling his belt. "How's Sophie?"
"She's good, a bit grumbly this morning but I had to wake her up to be able to actually leave this morning but she was fine by the time I left."
"Shell's like that sometimes too. She'll be fine by the time you get home tonight." Wordy says and Ed nods. They sit in a comfortable silence until they reach the SRU building.
"Ready to keep the peace?" Ed asks and Wordy nods and smiles at him.
"Always." Comes Wordy's reply as they get out of the car.

"Soph? I'm home." Ed calls as he walks through the front door after a long shift.
"Upstairs!" She shouts and Ed heads towards her voice.
"Go on buddy, go find daddy." She whispers to Oscar, her and Ed's boxer dog. The dog pads out into the hallway just as Ed reaches the top step.
"Hey buddy." Ed says bending dog and petting him. "What's that you've got there?" Ed takes hold of a piece of paper that's hanging from Oscar's collar. "Soph?" He calls again as he reads the letter.
"Yeah?" She says coming and standing in the doorway of their bedroom.
"Is this...are you...are you sure?" He asks, searching for the right words.
"Yes." Comes Sophie's reply. Ed practically leaps up and wraps his arms around Sophie.
"You're sure?"
"Yes. I've booked an appointment for tomorrow morning." Sophie says laughing at how excited Ed seems.
"That's great. That's amazing Soph!" Ed says hugging his wife again. Oscar then chooses that moment to start barking up at his 'mummy and daddy'. Sophie kneels down and hugs the dog as Ed sits down beside her and runs his hand over the dogs back.
"Looks like your mummy's having a baby Oscar!" Ed exclaims, glancing down at the note that says 'Mummy's pregnant!' once more.

AN: Future chapters will be longer, please review!
