No I do not own McFly blah blah blah
Amy's P.O.V
"Amy I don't know what to wear," Lindsey shrieked pulling clothes out of her wardrobe.
"You've got loads of stuff to wear, stop panicking, it's your mum coming to dinner not the queen," I replied.
"Yeah but I need to find something that doesn't make me look pregnant," Lindsey exclaimed, "I don't want to give it away as soon as she sees me."
"Don't worry Lindsey, she won't notice, your not even showing yet," Holly said helping Lindsey sort through her clothes.
"Stop stressing," Becca said as she flicked through a magazine.
"How about this?" I suggested holding up a nice pair of jeans and a plain black jumper.
"Erm…yeah alright," Lindsey said taking the jeans and jumper out of my hands.
"Now hurry up and get changed your mum will be here soon," Becca said pushing Lindsey out of the room and into the direction of the bathroom.
Tom's P.O.V
"Quick Dougie put that picture straight," I said rushing into the hallway.
Dougie straightened the picture and then stood in front of the mirror and attempted to flatten his hair.
"Hurry up," I called up the stairs.
"Alright calm down, don't get your knickers in a twist," Amy replied as the girls rushed down the stairs.
"Can we please leave my underwear out of this," I said as Danny and Harry walked down the stairs behind them.
"Yes please do, its making my morning sickness come back," Lindsey said as Dougie hugged her.
Then the door bell rang.
"Shit," Lindsey exclaimed and ran into the living room. Dougie, Amy, Holly and Becca followed her. Danny and Harry went into the kitchen to start setting the table.
"I'll get it then," I muttered and opened the door.
"Hello Tom, how nice to see you again," Lindsey's mum said stepping into the hallway.
"It's lovely to see you too Mrs. Stride," I said politely taking her coat, "why don't you go through to the living room, Lindsey's in there."
Mrs. Stride smiled and headed into the living room.
Dougie's P.O.V
The living room door opened and Lindsey's mum walking in. I felt Lindsey tense up straight away as she moved closer to me. I squeezed her hand to show her it was ok.
"Hello mum," Lindsey said nervously.
"Hi darling, how is everyone?" her mum replied.
"Just perfect," Holly grinned.
"Simply blooming," Amy smiled.
"I think I'll just go see how dinners coming along," Lindsey said hurriedly getting up.
Lindsey's P.O.V
I rushed out of the living room and into the kitchen.
"Hey lindz, you ok?" Danny asked as he set the table.
"You look a bit pale, what's wrong?" Harry asked.
"Where's Tom?" I said noticing he wasn't around.
"He's gone to change his shirt, why?"
"I don't think I can do this guys," I said sitting down on one of the stools by the breakfast bar.
"It's going to be ok," Danny said hugging me.
"I hope so," I whispered.
"Hey, what's up?" Tom said walking into the kitchen now in a pale green shirt and a pair of light jeans with his yellow converse.
"How long until dinner, I want to get this over and done with," I said as Danny let go.
"It's ready now," Tom replied.
"Good."
I went back into the living room and told them that dinner was ready.
A few hours later: after dinner
(Still Lindsey's P.O.V)
"Erm… mum can I talk to you for a minute?" I said as we all got up from the dinner table.
"Of course honey," my mum replied happily.
"Why don't you go in the living room, I'll be there in a minute," I said putting some of the plates in the sink.
"Do you want me to be there with you?" Tom asked.
"No, I've got to do this on my own," I replied, "come on Dougie."
We both went into the living room. Everyone else had stayed in the kitchen.
I sat down opposite my mum.
"Mum, I've got something to tell you," I said taking a depth breathe.
"Go on then," she replied.
"Erm…," I stuttered. Dougie sat down beside me and took hold of my hand.
"Hurry up Lindsey spit it out," my mum said.
"Amy's pregnant," I told her.
Dougie looked at me. He half smiled.
Then the door opened and Amy and Harry walking in, totally unaware of what's going on.
"How could you be so irresponsible," my mum shrieked at them.
"Excuse me?" Amy said taken aback.
"Getting pregnant at your age, you've only just turned twenty," my mum continued.
Amy looked at me.
"Sorry," I mouthed.
She nodded as she realised what I'd said to my mum.
"You should have been more careful, you're not even married, it's disgraceful," my mum ranted.
"Hold on a minute, am I missing something here?" Harry asked looking at Amy.
"You haven't even told him yet," my mother shrieked, "what a complete mess."
I can't believe my mother is saying this.
"Hang on mother, it doesn't matter how old you are or if you're married or whatever, the baby has two parents that love it, what more could it need," I said feeling my blood starting to boil.
"It needs a stable home, and you can hardly call this household stable," my mum replied.
"Right, I've heard enough," I said getting up, "mum, Amy's not the one who's pregnant it's me."
"What?"
"I'm pregnant, I lied before because I knew you'd be like this," I confessed, "and if all of what you just said is how you really feel then I'm not interested in what you have to say. I'm not leaving here so you can rant all you want because I'm staying put, and if you don't like it then tuff."
"Lindsey, think about this, you can't raise a child, your nineteen! This is ridiculous," my mother said furiously.
"Don't let the door hit you on the way out, goodbye mother," I said and left the living room. I ran up the stairs wiping tears off my face. I crashed on my bed and sobbed.
10 Minutes later
Dougie's P.O.V
Lindsey's mum stormed out of the house after Tom refused to let her take Lindsey away.
"Stupid bat," Amy muttered as she drove off.
"Right, just to make sure, Amy your not pregnant right?" Harry asked nervously.
"No," Amy laughed.
"Ok then," Harry replied happily.
"I'll go and check on Lindsey," I said and went upstairs.
I sat beside Lindsey on her bed. She was crying into her pillow.
"Hey, it's going to be fine, we don't need her," I said hugging Lindsey tightly.
"But she's right Dougie, we can't raise a child," Lindsey sobbed into my chest.
"Yes we can, look I need to ask you something," I said.
Lindsey looked up at me.
"What?" she asked.
"just so you know, I've wanted to ask you since the day you left when we were on tour, before I even knew you were pregnant, when you left I realised how much I really loved you and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you," I replied pulling the box I'd be carrying around all week out of my pocket, I opened it, "Lindsey Stride will you marry me?"
There were a few moments of silence.
"I don't know what to say," Lindsey sputtered.
"A yes would be good," I chuckled.
"Yes, I'll marry you," Lindsey replied new tears running down her face. (Tears of joy)
I pulled the ring out of the box and put it on her finger.
"It's beautiful," Lindsey smiled admiring the diamond glittering on her finger.
"Come on," I said pulling her off the bed, "let's go and tell everyone."
We ran down the stairs and into the living room.
"Guys guess what!" we exclaimed.
They just looked at us.
"Were getting married," I shouted.
"Oh my God," the girls exclaimed hugging Lindsey.
"Congratulations," the guys shouted over the screaming girls.
"We've got so much planning to do," Holly said excitedly, "let's go wedding dress shopping tomorrow!"
"I'll let you deal with that one," I smirked kissing Lindsey on the cheek.
"You don't get away with it so easy Doug," Becca grinned, "you've got to pick out your suit and help with the flowers and music and everything."
"Sounds like fun," I replied as the guys laughed.
Later that night
(Still Dougie's P.O.V)
"So your going to be Mrs Douglas Poynter," I laughed as me and Lindsey climbed into bed.
"Yeah, that is so weird," Lindsey replied.
"How is it?" I asked slightly confused.
"You wouldn't understand Dougie," she giggled turning out the light.
"Alright then goodnight," I said as Lindsey curled up next to me. I pulled her close to me.
"Night Dougie," she whispered.
"Night."
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
'Cause I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
