Part Two

The next morning Peter left for work early as Lauren was busy looking after Louie who was still unsettled,

"Oh Louie! Should mummy phone the doctors angel!" Lauren says rocking him gently in her arms feeling slightly frazzled,

"Hello? Lauren it's just me babe!" Whitney says entering the sitting room smiling over at a worn out looking Lauren,

"Oh hey Whit. Sorry Louie is teething so he's not his cheery self"

"Here let me hold him you look worn out babe!" Lauren carefully hands a crying Louie over to Whitney,

"You think I should phone the doctors?"

"I don't know babe. If your worried about him there would be no harm. Want me to come with you?"

"You sure you'd want to after your..."

"Lauren I'm fine. Look babe I appreciate you worrying about me but I can help my best mate and her son!" Lauren smiles warmly over at Whitney,

"Thanks Whit. I will just phone the surgery won't be long!" Lauren heads into the kitchen whilst Whitney holds baby Louie in her arms. The doctors was packed as Louie grizzled the whole time he was there both Whitney and Lauren trying everything to settle him, Lauren and Whitney head towards the pharmacy after the doctor gives them a prescription,

"Babe?" Peter heads over to them,

"Oh alright Peter uh why aren't you at the stall with Martin?"

"Break. Where you guys off to?"

"Just pharmacy the doctor has just prescribed some cream to soothe his gums"

"Aw he still in pain?"

"Yeah all morning grizzling and screaming down the place" Peter nods taking in his tired looking Fiancé,

"Lauren how bout I get the afternoon off to take care of this little man while you rest"

"But we need the money Peter. I'll be fine I promise"

"Uh Lauren I'm insisting on it! Now I'll meet you back at home!" Peter kisses her cheek before heading towards his stall.

That afternoon Lauren fell asleep whilst Peter watched baby Louie who after a while worn himself out and fell asleep, Peter places him gently into his crib before heading quietly into his bedroom watching a fast asleep Lauren making him smile as she looked so peaceful. Peter spots the small notepad with Lauren's wedding ideas in them as he tiptoes over to the bedside table and grabs the notepad before heading back downstairs, Peter sat himself at the kitchen table and started to look through the notepad. He sighs longingly wishing that Lucy was alive to help him make their wedding day perfect as Lauren deserved a special day,

"Hey Abi I need your help can you come over?"
