Ten minutes later, I was in my room on the bed crying. When there was knock at the door.
Camilla – Peter?
Dianna – No it's your father and I.
Camilla – Come in.
They entered.
Dianna – So your father tells me you and Peter are back together
again. And, that you are having a baby?
Camilla – Yes, yes we are!
Dianna – How can you have a baby with someone like him?
Camilla – Excuse me?
Dianna – How can a local police officer look after my grandchild? How will he provide for the baby?
Camilla – Life isn't all about class or money mother!
Dianna – All I want is the best you and this baby.
Camilla – I know you do, but I want it to know is that he or she is
loved, I don't want them crying themselves to sleep at boarding school every night. It doesn't matter what you think of Peter because I love him. I can't wait to us be married, and for us to be a family, with our baby. Yes we won't have as much money as you two did but will have love and happiness in our little family.
I put my hand over belly
Dianna – Camilla, how dare you talk to us like that!?
Camilla – I need to find Peter!
Dianna – Camilla, stop, we need to sort this thing out!
Camilla – This thing you refer to is my baby!
I run out the room and leave the villa. I got into their car and
started driving around looking for Peter. I couldn't find him. At
stopped at this little chapel where used go when I little, I went
there when I was upset and prayed. I walked to into the chapel to find father Alex. I knocked on the door and entered.
Camilla – Father Alex, do you have a minute?
Father Alex – Good Morning Camilla, I'm sorry but I'm in a meeting
with someone right now.
He signals to someone behind me, I turn around.
Camilla – Peter?
Peter – Hello father, Camilla.
Camilla – What are you doing here?
Peter – I came to talk about our wedding.
Camilla – Our wedding?
Peter – It a was birthday surprise.
Camilla – Well, that is a surprise!
Peter – But do you want to get married?
Camilla – Of course I do, why wouldn't I?
Peter – The way I acted today, was selfish and wrong. Todays your
birthday and now, wedding day. I shouldn't make you do something you didn't want do!
Camilla – It's okay baby and I'll told them about us.
Peter – You did?
Camilla – Yeah and I told them some other news too!
Peter – What other news?
I put his hand over my belly.
Camilla – We're having a baby.
Peter – What? I'm going to be daddy?
Camilla – Yes
He hugged me.
Peter – I love you and our baby so much word can't say!
Camilla – We love you too Daddy!
We hugged again.
After that I got back in the car and went to get ready for the
wedding. When I got to the villa Jenny, Carley Trixie and Giovanna
were standing at the door.
Carley – What did you say to him?
Camilla – Sorry, can't talk I've got to get ready for my wedding!
The girls ran over to me jumping and screaming.
Jenny – Come on then lets' you ready!
The girls got everything done for me. They helped Peter pick out
flowers, hair things, shoes and the dress was amazing. It was so
beautiful. Everything was perfect, that was until mum and dad came in.
Dianna – What's is going on in here?
Trixie – We're getting ready for the wedding of the year!
George – What?
Giovanna passed them an invitation.
Giovanna – It says it all there!
George – Mr and Mrs Brown, we cordially invite you to the wedding of Camilla and Peter at St Thomas' chapel today.
Dianna – Today?
Camilla – It's a surprise for to me too. He did it for my birthday!
Trixie – How sweet is he!
Dianna – You can't thought with it!
Camilla – Yes I can! I'm a 30 year woman and soon wife and mother
Jenny – What?
Calely – Are you pregnant?
Camilla – Yes!
Giovanna – I'm so happy for you.
Dianna – You're happy for her and that police offer?
Giovanna – Yes I am mother, Peter is a great guy. Him and Camilla are best couple I know!
Trixie – You're not helping, we having a wedding to get to!
Mum walked out and dad follower her.
Camilla – Do think they will be okay?
Giovanna – Yeah, they just need some time to get used to the idea!
Camilla – Just think, the next family wedding could be you and Mark!
Giovanna – Oh stop it!
On the driveway of villa was a horse.
Carlos – Miss Brown, may I take your hand?
Camilla – Thank you.
He helped me on to the horse.
Jenny – Let's get going
We start the walk to the chapel. When we got their it looked so
amazing Peter and the girls hard work had really paid off. I got off
the horse and Giovanna pulled my veil over my face. We got ready to
walk down the aisle when…
George – Wait up!
Camilla – Dad?
George – Please do not walk down that aisle without me!
Camilla – Oh Dad
George – I may not approve of Peter but I do approve of people who
make you happy and I've be thinking, I can't remember the last time
you were this happy.
Camilla – Is mum coming?
George – No, she needs more time. You know what she's like.
I nodded my head
George – Right lets get you married then!
Jenny and Carley open the doors to chapel. Me and Dad started the
longest and biggest walk of my life to my husband, my Peter, my star
in the sky.
George – Welcome to the family son.
Peter – Thank you sir.
George – Call me George.
Dad sat down.
Father Alex – Are we ready?
Camilla – I am.
Peter – Yes, I've never been so ready in all my life!
It was the best of day of my life but the time went by so quick.
Father Alex – I now pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride.
We kissed for the time as Mr and Mrs Noakes. It took us a long time
but I think it shows that our love is strong in the good and bad
times. I look around at all of the happy faces but one was missing. I
headed back to the villa, to change and to talk with her.
Camilla – Mum?
Dianna – Yes.
Camilla – Can we talk?
Dianna – Of course.
Camilla – I'm Sorry about what I said to you this morning it was wrong of me, I was mad at myself not you.
Dianna – Thank you Camilla, or is it Mrs, Mrs.
Camilla – Noakes. Mrs Noakes.
Peter walked up to us.
Dianna – Peter?
Peter – Yes Mrs Brown.
Dianna – Now you look after her okay, or you will have me and Mr Brown to deal with.
Peter – Of course I will look after her, I love her with all my heart.
Oh, and of course our baby too.
He put his hand on my belly.
Dianna – Good
Mum walked with us and joined the wedding party.
Camilla – I think she likes you!
Peter – Really?
Camilla – That is like for her!
From that moment on as Mrs Noakes, life was just amazing my 3rd book was another hit and midwifery was still as great as that first day. Our little boy Freddie Peter Noakes was born on 26th November 2018. So I guess that's a goodbye from me and my two stars in the sky.
