IN THE OFFICE
Eddie was still carrying Rachel as they made their way through the corridors…he pressed his forehead to hers and kissed her gently. She kissed him back and a tingling sensation went through her body, from head to toe. She felt fireworks and she was not alone because so did Eddie…..
They arrived in the office and Eddie was still holding her in his arms. He placed her gently down on her desk and brushed her hair from her face. He kissed her again more passionately this time and made as if to unbutton her top Rachel pushed him away..
'You don't want to see my scars- I feel ugly…'
'Babe you're never ugly…you're more gorgeous now then you were before the fire.
'I thought you'd got over that with me I mean we have a baby now I thought you could deal with it' Eddie said reproachfully
'I have it's just I can't always deal with it Eddie 'Rachel said
'I understand....completely…remember Rachel I'll always be here for you.
Rachel looked into his eyes, he looked so sweet, so intense and so sincere…inside she melted…
'Eddie thank you so much you're the only one I will ever love and I knew that from the start…I wanna spend the rest of my life with you….
'I do too…and we will…' They kissed again and when they drew apart for breath Eddie said 'You know…in the fire, when you were stuck in there, I thought I'd lost you…and it was the saddest moment of my life….'
I love you so much when I turned you down and you were with Melissa I thought I'd lost my only chance to tell you how much I loved you it tore me apart to see you with her….
He kissed her intimately and drew her close to him he could feel the rise and fall of her breathing every time they took a breath and felt closer to her than he ever had…
Then Eddie said 'Me and Melissa were nothing, we had nothing in common…I didn't love her and she probably didn't love me….'I used to look at you and wish it was you stood there with me not her but you seemed not to care…
'I always cared…it's just…being a girl I can hide my feelings….!!!'
'Really' he said kissing her once more…'I'm not sure if I can believe that….
'Anyway so on to more important matters…'said Eddie
'What's more important than this' said Rachel
'Choosing a name for little 'Reddie'' said Eddie
'Reddie?? That name is starting to grow on me….'
Rach, come on you've got to be joking I was thinking something more original….
'Any ideas??'
Well I was thinking Libby-Hope or Skye if it was a girl and if it was a boy Toby…
'Charles' said Rachel
'So are we settled then Libby-Hope or Toby Charles…' Eddie said
'Yep those names just….sound right….Awww it's all so real now isn't it… getting married…a baby…what's next?
'A holiday perhaps….'said Eddie
'Look, Eddie I think we should get married after the baby is born I mean I want to look good in a dress I don't want to be fat in my wedding pictures…..
'Your right…but by the way you wouldn't look fat…you'd look gorgeous'
'You try having a baby and trying to squeeze into a tiny size 10 white gown….!
Kim entered the office and said 'So have you thought of any baby names yet then or are you sticking with Reddie which I think was Bolton's suggestion…
'No surprisingly we've changed our minds' said Eddie
'We were thinking' said Rachel 'what do you think of Libby- Hope if it's a girl and Toby-Charles if it's a boy?'
'Awe very sweet and they're really nice names… you two came up with them quickly….'
'Yes' said Rachel 'Eddies got a real talent in name choosing…'
