[[Plot pixies attacked my brain whilst talking to Dudeybob last night. So here goes…Its only going to be a short fic I think. Please read and review]]

Chapter 1

It was the twenty sixth of December. My baby wasn't due for a further three weeks. The previous day, I had married Jack. We had planned for an earlier wedding, but his physio hadn't been going well. He was now well enough though, and our wedding was rearranged. Our perfect Christmas day wedding.

Afterwards, everybody retreated to the Vic. A place of such importance to most of my family. It was different now though. Peggy wasn't behind the bar, and the moment I walked in, it just wasn't the same. Just two hours into the reception, Jack was stood reading out his speech. Tears ran down my cheeks. I stood up slowly, avoiding knocking my now huge bump on the table and walked over to my husband and kissed him softly. A huge round of applause roared throughout the pub. Jack and I looked into each others eyes, and saw nothing but sheer love for each other.

Just seconds passed before I looked into Jack's eyes once more. Jack looked confused. ''What's up babe?'' he asked in a hushed tone. I simply just lowered my eyes and looked at the floor. ''Shit…Jack…'' I whispered. I didn't know what to say or do. His eyes followed to the floor. ''My waters have broke'' I smiled at him.

I sat staring. Staring at this amazing little person who I had just brought into this world. Nineteen hours of labour. Nineteen hours of excruciating pain and using only gas an air, but it was all worth it. I'd waited so long to have a child, and now she was finally here.

She was beautiful. Even more beautiful than I could ever imagine. Her little hand immediately clasped around my fingers. At that moment in time, I wasn't sure if I could be any happier.

Jack's smile said it all. His eyes were brighter than I'd ever seen them. It hadn't changed from the moment he set eyes on out little princess. ''She's gorgeous babe. Just like her mummy'' He whispered as he gently stroked our daughters cheek, then kissed my still clammy forehead. I didn't reply. I didn't need to.

At that moment in time, I felt like I could burst with happiness at any given moment. I had my own little family now. I had been married to Jack for just one day, and now our daughter was here. I never knew it was possible for things to change so much in the space twenty four hours, but they had, and it was perfect.

I couldn't stop staring at her. At that moment in time, I never wanted to take my eyes off of her.

Millie Elise Branning. We had agreed on this name just days previous, but it suited her already.

I promised my baby girl that I would always protect her. That I would give her everything she ever need and more, including the world if it were possible.
