Chapter 4: iSupport You

It was hard to believe it had been a whole year since they'd found their own home. But now the Duke family were all settled into their new life and were happy together. Right now Sam was feeding Marie, which meant Bobby was the one who went to answer the phone when it started ringing.

"Ello?" He said as he answered.

He recognized the voice that answered him. "Bobby..."

"Mel?"

It was Sam's twin sister, Melanie Puckett.

"Is...Is Sam there?" Melanie asked, sounding strange.

Bobby replied quickly. "Ah, yeah. She's feedin' Marie, sorry."

Melanie inhaled sharply. "God, I...I..."

Bobby couldn't help but note something seemed wrong with his sister-in-law. He couldn't help but feel worried for her.

"Melanie?" He began worriedly.

Melanie stammered for a moment before replying. "Um, this isn't something I can just...can I come round?"

"Sure."

He quickly gave her directions to their new house and they both hung up. As he entered the kitchen Sam turned to him.

"Who was it?"

"Melanie." Bobby replied. "She wants to come over."

Sam was clearly surprised. "Oh, that's...surprising."

"Yeah, uh. She sounded upset though." Bobby replied.

Sam blinked and then narrowed her eyes at that. "Yeah?"

"She didn' say." Bobby explained.

Sam sighed, guessing she'd just have to wait and see what her sister wanted.


It was an hour or so later when there was a knock at the front door. Sam approached and answered it and sure enough, there was her twin sister standing there, she looked pale and frightened.

"Hey Mels." Sam greeted her carefully.

Melanie just nodded. "Thanks for seeing me."

Sam nodded as they stepped inside. Melanie quickly smiling, composing herself as Marie came running over to her, not wanting to make her niece worry.

"Auntie Mel!"

Melanie grinned as she knelt and hugged Marie.

"Hey Marie." She greeted cheerfully. "Wow, look how big you're getting."

"Yeah." Marie replied, nodding enthusiastically.

A short while later, while it was just them, Sam decided to ask Melanie about her visit.

"So, Mels...what's up?"

Melanie shuddered and let out a shaky breath. "Mom, mom threw me out, she's furious with me, I...I..."

This shocked Sam, that Melanie, the golden child, had incurred their mother's wrath.

"I'm pregnant." Melanie revealed at last, revealing the reason why.

"Wha?"

Melanie shook her head and began to explain.

Melanie explained the truth, about how her boyfriend had ditched her, exactly one day after Melanie had discovered her pregnancy. How it had happened by accident and how their mother found out.

In the end Sam hugged her sister. "God Mels..."

Sam looked worriedly over at Bobby who was nearby, also looking worried. Melanie had broken down at the end of her story, sobbing as Sam tried to console her sister. It took some time for Melanie to calm down, luckily Marie didn't see her as, while it was still early, the little girl was taking a nap. Bobby had returned with some lemonades for the three of them.

"So, what are you gonna do?" Sam asked at last.

"I don't know..."

"Well..." Sam replied with a soft smile. "If there's anything I can do."

Melanie grinned, thanking her. A few days later, with Sam and Bobby having gladly taken Melanie in while she tried to find her feet again. It was that day that Melanie was finally bale to make her decision regarding the baby.

"I'm going to keep the baby." Melanie told Sam. "If the father doesn't want to live with that, it's his problem."

Sam smiled; glad for her sister. It had been Melanie's support that had helped Sam when she had been pregnant with Marie. Since then the sisters had been closer than ever and Sam swore, she'd be there for Melanie, just as Melanie had been for her.


Melanie smiled as she moved carefully to the kitchen, she could hardly believe all the time that had passed. She finally had her own place, but right now was visiting Sam and Bobby again. It was in fact her due date, she put a hand on her swollen stomach, smiling to herself at her hopes.

It had been a surprisingly smooth journey, finally making it clear that she would no longer accept any interference from her mother, had completely cut off ties with her boyfriend, the baby's father. She had the support of her sister and brother-in-law, as well as her friends and that was enough for her. Suddenly it happened and she cried out, feeling it.

"Oh God!"

"Melanie?" Bobby hurried over to her.

"She's...she's coming!" Melanie cried out.

His eyes widened. Melanie had her ultrasound a few months ago and knew the gender of her baby. He quickly called Sam who hurried over and soon they were hurrying through to the hospital.

At the hospital it wasn't long before they were in the maternity ward, Bobby and Marie waited outside the room while Sam remained inside with Melanie.

"C'mon Mels, you can do this." Sam told her.

Melanie screamed as another contraction hit. Sam did her best to coach her until finally, after a long time, it finally happened, Melanie gave birth to a baby girl.

"She's beautiful." Melanie whispered as she cradled her baby girl with a warm smile on her face.

Sam grinned as she observed her niece, happy for her sister.

"It's gonna be fine, princess." Melanie said softly. "Clover, we will do this together."

Melanie smiled as Clover, her baby girl, smiled up at her mother.
