DANS POV
We were currently at CPS and Phil was talking to the receptionist trying to get information about what need to do to get Liam back.
"So as I was saying, my fiancé here," Phil said referring to me which completely caught me off guard causing me feel an enormous blush slowly creeping up from my neck."brought in a baby boy, named Liam, a week ago and we were wondering if there was anyway we could adopt him?"
"So you're saying, you want to adopt the baby you two gave away?" The receptionist just looked at us like were complete idiots but told us she was going to call in someone to come talk to us to see what they could do.
"Hey Dan don't worry, everything will be fine." He said holding my hand once we were sitting in the waiting area.
"Hopefully." I gave him a weak smile and laid my head on his shoulder as he continued to make circles on my hand with his thumb.
" , , is ready to see you." The receptionist called out.
"Ah Mr. Howell! What brings you back here?" Mrs. Mills asked as we walked into her office.
"Well you see, my fiancé and I would like Liam back, the baby I dropped off here a week ago."
" , Liam has been put in the foster system for now, he could be anywhere in London by now; since he is still a baby, he might be adopted in no time, theres not much I can do."
At this I felt my heart stop; I was too late.
"Wait-" Phil said all of a sudden,"is there any chance your husband is Adam Mills?" Phil asked the social worker.
"Yes actually, we got married a few years back. Wait aren't you Phil? Didn't you catch the bouquet at my wedding?"
"Yeah, you threw them directly on my head!" Phil and laughed.
"I'm sorry about that Phil!"
"I'm sorry to interrupt but Mrs. Mills is there anything you can do you help us get our baby back? I just really miss him; I should've never gave him up in the first place."
"Please call me Melody. Look, I really shouldn't be doing this but because I can't imagine how hard it is to lose a child, nevertheless an infant, I'm going to see what I can do. Also think of this as an apology for hitting you in the head, Phil."
"Thank you so much Melody!" I said getting up to hug her.
"We're getting our baby back, Philip." I whispered to Phil when I hugged him.
.
"I have arranged a meeting with the adoption agency for wednesday so guys can apply to get an adoption application and meet others who would like to adopt Liam, but don't worry I'm sure you'll get him back. If you guys need any help with anything else, here is my card. Good Luck!"
And with that, we went back home to plan our real but pretend wedding.
