Michelle is only a week away from her due date and Steve has a little surprise for her.

"Right babe I'm going to need to go into work today but I will try my best to be here tomorrow" Steve said zipping up his jacket.

"Its fine you go I've got Ryan to look after me if anything happens" She said.

"Well okay just don't leave the house just stay in and relax"

"Yes ok I'll be fine now get to work" She said giving him a quick kiss as he walked out of the kitchen where she was making breakfast.

"Bye" He shouted as he left the house. Michelle finished making her toast and walked over to the sofa and sat herself down on it, just as Ryan came down the stairs.

"Hey babe what you doing up this early" She said surprised to see him out his bed.

"Well Steve was saying how it is important to look after you so you don't get to stressed and upset the baby or something like that so I thought I would get up so he doesn't nag you anymore it is driving me insane" He said sitting down beside her.

"Oh now that is cute but he is only trying to help" She said leaning her head on his shoulders.

"Don't suppose there's anything to eat" He said standing up and walking into the kitchen.

"Yea there's bread, cereal all the usual stuff in the same places" She said as she dumped her plate on the coffee table and stood up.

"I'm going to get changed its freezing" She said walking up the stairs and into the bedroom where she put on a baggy top and trackie bottoms and an old hoody as she guessed she would be going no-where today. She walked down the stairs to find Ryan changed as well and had put the TV on.

"What you watching" She said sitting down beside him and getting the magazine she had read about 2000 times before.

"It's about crazy people doing crazy stuff"

"Sounds interesting" She said flicking though her magazine but found she had read it all before so she tried watching TV with Ryan but got of bored of that too so she lay her head down on Ryan and tried to sleep but couldn't do that.

"Ryan I am so bored" She said flicking muck out her nail.

"I gathered you could play football with me"

"Football lets think why it would be highly impossible to do that" She said hitting him lightly across the face.

"No on the x-box" He said lifting his mum off him and switching it on

"Fine then bring it on but I will have to warm you I am amazing at this" She said sitting up

"Mum you've got to be joking" He said handing her a controller and sitting back down

"Shut up" She said as he started the game. They played for a couple of hours before Steve came back.

"Hiya just thought I would check to make sure your ok" He said as he came through the door

"But you seem to be fine so I'll just leave you too it" He giving Michelle a quick kiss on the head before signalling for the surprise to come over, Michelle didn't respond to any of this as she was to stuck in the game but Ryan knew exactly what was happening.

"RAWR" Carla said as she came up behind Michelle who jamp out of her skin.

"OH MY GOD Carla it's actually you" Michelle said turning around to see her best friend standing there.

We'll be off" Steve said as he and Ryan walked out and left them to it

"Chelle I ave missed you so much" Carla said wrapping her arms around Michelle's neck from the back.

"But please may I ask why you have left my little brother in-charge of the factory by himself"

"Well you had better sit down and believe me him and Steve kinda made me really" She said as Carla unwound her arms and came and sat down beside her.

"Why what's wrong chelle" As she put her hands on Michelle's stomach but looked at Michelle confusingly as she felt little kicks from inside her.

"Do I need to spell it out for you I'm Pregnant" She said as Carla looked up at her and gave her a massive hug.

"Chelle that's totally amazing" She said as she pulled herself out of the hug

"When's it due" She asked feeling her stomach this time lightly than before

"Next week" Michelle said suddenly getting all excited at the thought of having a new little baby by next week

"Baby you are full of surprises" Carla said as Michelle found herself once again lying down on some-one else's knees but Carla didn't seem to care which was just as well because she was feeling really tired now.

"Well that's me isn't it any way what brings you back here"

"Oh never mind I'll tell you later you have some sleep or something you look knackered" She said moving the hair out of Michelle's face.

"I am but I want to listen to you and if I'm tired I'll fall asleep as long as you or Steve are here when I wake up" A small tear falling from her she usually did find herself getting emotional when she was tired and all she wanted was for someone to hold her and keep her safe.

"Hey baby don't cry its fine me or Steve will be right here with you you'll never be alone" She said wiping the tear from her eyes.

"Come on get some sleep eh" She said lightly kissing her forehead before Michelle lightly drifted off to sleep. About an hour later Steve came back with a whole load of shopping and then Ryan came in with more.

"Hey Auntie Carla" Ryan said dumping the shopping and going out to get the rest.

"How is she" Steve asked kneeling down so he could see her more clearly.

"Aww she's fine just got a bit tired and upset but she's fine now I think I had probably be off anyway but if she wants to see me or if you two need anything I would be more than happy to pop around just get her to text me and I'll be straight around" She said slowly lifting Michelle off her so not to wake her and standing up.

"Yes thank-you im sure she will and thanks for coming to see her you'll have made her day no doubt" Steve said showing her to the door

"It's no problem anytime" She said smiling before walking away. Steve walked back over to Michelle who was getting a bit restless so he decided to go sit with her for when she woke up and with in a few minutes she had woken up.

"Hey beautiful" Steve said as she stretched out

"Hey where's Carla gone" She asked confused as she was sure that was who was there when she fell asleep.

He had to go but she would be more than happy to come and see you tomorrow you just need to text her and she will be right over" He said as she sat up

"Yea I will what's with all the shopping" She asked as she looked around

"Me and Ryan went and done a bit of shopping mainly for the little one" He said standing up as someone was at the door.

"Hey is Michelle there" Rob asked from outside.

"Yea just come in" Steve said letting him in and closing the door.

"Are you doing anything on Friday" Rob asked as he sat down on the single seat.

"No why"

"Well you know how Carlas back and everything well the girls in the factory think it would be nice to hold a surprise welcome back party for her and well they would really like it if you and Steve would be able to come" Michelle looked up to Steve who nodded as it would really make her happy to see her friends and be out the house.

"Yea that would be great as long as I don't have to stand up to long"

"Nope that will be fine so if we say you get Carla to come to the factory about 5.00 because she will come if its you asking and then you guys walk in together and we'll all hide under the tables and then give her a surprise"

"Yea that would be great" She said arching her back as it was getting sore

"Right ok well I'll be off then" Said Rob standing up and walking towards the door

"And thanks it wouldn't be the same without you" He said smiling before leaving.
