Everyone was clapping and cheering loudly as Zoe finished the song, she was the true show woman, but Matt, Danny and Dupe's dodgy dance moves had even caused Zoe some trouble in keeping her attention focused on singing. Alice had had to sit down through laughter, Liv had leant on Alice's chair, and Charlotte and Evan had been uncontrollably laughing too. Everyone had been, but as the song finished, Zoe stood up tall.
"Right I get to select who's next!" She grinned wickedly, looking around, her eyes fixed upon Danny and Alice who both shifted uncomfortably. Danny's singing was not too good but Alice had the voice of an angel, only nobody actually knew apart from Danny, Charlotte and Olivia.
"Please No!" Danny pleaded as Zoe smiled cheekily.
"Danny and Alice - duet!" She shouted excitedly.
"Number between one and twenty excluding sixteen." Rowan mumbled, as he leant down by the machine.
"I hate you Zoe!" Alice laughed, "Erm…" She looked towards Danny. It had been on the 9th March they had first got together. "Nine."
"You'll be in my heart." Vanessa smiled.
"Tarzan!" Alice yelled.
"Disney geek." Danny whispered teasingly into her ear.
"Sorry Mr Trevanion, but I'm pretty sure we once had an argument about Winnie the Pooh and Eeyore, and that is disney!" Alice replied cheekily. "Come on."
Alice led Danny to the stage. She hated doing things like this, but hey, this was a party and party they would!
(It's the next day and the day of Alice's doctor appointment)
Danny woke up slowly, his eyes opening gradually. As he finally came to his senses he saw Alice was still fast asleep in his arms, her naked skin against his. A smile crept across Danny's face spreading like a tidal wave as he remembered all that happened last night, and all that would happen today. He couldn't quite believe he and Alice were going to have a baby, a proper family! No, they'd never be that, but to be having another child and with Alice, it was everything he wanted and more.
He gently ran his hand down her body, stopping at her stomach, he could feel the slight bump on her slender body, a surge of pride overwhelmed him as Alice's eyes slowly fluttered.
"Danny?" She mumbled sleepily.
"Who else?" He asked kissing her gently on the lips, his touch as light as a feather, yet his meaning as hard as a bullet. Alice soon awoke after Danny's embrace. As they pulled away Alice placed her hands on his chest.
"We should probably get up shouldn't we? It's 10am and we have to be at the doctors for 2pm. And we do have a lot to do Mr Trevanion!" Alice said, she then smiled cheekily, "Not that I wouldn't want to stay here with you."
"Hmm, then why don't you?" He murmured seductively, his manner attracting Alice to him, her resistance being melted away by the force of her ultimate desire.
"How can I resist?" She giggled as she pushed her lips to his, as they began to arduously kiss one another there was a knock at the door.
"Mum, Dad?" Alice threw Danny some trousers as she pulled her joggers and vest top on quickly.
"Yes love?" Alice asked, as her and Danny swiftly got into a more reasonable position.
The door opened slowly, a loud creak breaking the silence. Charlotte came and sat on her mum's side of the bed. Danny scooted over, so Charlotte could lie between them, Charlotte happily accepted as she clambered over her mum's legs, falling into Danny's chest.
"Careful sweetheart!" Danny laughed as she finally got to her destination.
"Anyway, what's wrong?" Alice asked, stroking her daughter's hair.
"Nothing, I just want to talk to you." Charlotte smiled, Danny placed his arm behind her, his hand stroked Alice's shoulder.
"Okay, what about?" Danny asked, smiling genuinely at Charlotte. Alice grinned, he was such a superb dad. It was one of the things she loved the most about him.
"Well, when will I find out if I'm getting a brother or sister?" Charlotte asked, looking between her mum and Danny.
"Erm…" Alice looked to Danny, her eyes asking him the question on both their minds. Danny just shrugged and mouthed 'Surprise?'. Alice communicated through her eyes as Danny gave her a silent nod. "You'll find out when their born, love."
"But can't you find out before?" Charlotte pestered intrigued.
"You can, but we want a surprise, besides it'll be more fun!" Danny grinned tickling her belly.
"Cool! Will you still love me?" Charlotte asked.
"Of course we will, you are our number one girl, and our number one priority." Danny smiled, Alice backed him up.
"We will always love you, more than anything in this whole wide world!" Alice grinned, Charlotte hugged her tightly, before widening the hug for Danny to join in.
"I can't wait!" Charlotte squealed excitedly.
"Neither can we." Alice sighed dreamily, looking into Danny's emerald eyes.
"Anyway, Im going now, bye!" Charlotte was out of the room in a flash, Danny and Alice laughed at her excitement.
"Bless her, she's a great kid, but then again she does have a great mum!" Danny grinned.
Alice said nothing but kissed him lovingly, before placing his face in her hands. "Come on handsome, let's get ready, get our jobs done, and get to that doctors!"
"One more kiss." Danny begged teasingly.
"Get up and you get one." Alice winked as she stood by the wardrobe.
"Im not moving unless you kiss me." Danny said defiantly.
"Okay, then." Alice mumbled, walking over, she began to kiss him so light, her lips teased Danny's, sending a tingling sensation down them, as he tried to deepen the kiss she pulled away and grinned. "Up!"
"Oright mum!" Danny laughed as Alice just raised her eyebrows.
Zoe smiled at Olivia who was skipping around the kitchen gleefully.
"You seem happy!" Zoe exclaimed with a chuckle.
"I am! Me and Gran are going away today!" Olivia smiled.
"Thought that was later?"
"Yeh it was but we decided to go today!" Olivia was so excited, Zoe laughed as Matt joined her.
"Matt, we're going shopping." Zoe winked, Olivia noticed the mischievous glint in her eye, it was the same glint Alice got when she was up to no good.
"You getting supplies?" Olivia asked cheekily.
"Supplies, what do you mean? If you mean, those supplies there's no need - Matt isn't that lucky!" Zoe grinned wickedly, mocking Matt's face.
"Yeh, I'm not lucky enough to wear high heels but oh - hold on, neither are you!" Matt replied quickly turning it around.
"You're learning well… but Matt, I have crutches, so I give you three seconds to run before I beat you up with them." Zoe teased, "3, oops I cant count!" She proceeded to hit him with her crutches gently.
"Oh you're a cruel woman!" Matt laughed as Olivia walked off shaking her head. They were just like two kids!
"Anders, help me pack." Caroline said gently, as Dupe messed with everything in site, he was impossible at times to keep focussed.
"You want these?" Dupe asked holding up her underwear.
"Yes, Anders!" Caroline moaned as he lifted them out of reach.
"You'll have to persuade me." Dupe winked, teasing her with his cheekiness.
"Okay I will!" She said, as she kissed Dupe, his arms automatically wrapped around her, expertly and wisely, she grabbed the underwear out his hands, and smiled. "So predictable."
Dupe laughed as he began to fold his wife's clothes.
"All done!" Danny grinned as he finished all his chores, Alice was sat finishing the paperwork for Matt. She had to write a full report about him and his work, as part of his course, that reminded she had to sign his exam entry forms, as did Danny!
"Nearly done, just sign these then we can send them off Danny." Alice said handing him the papers and pen.
"Can we go now?" Danny pestered, his excitement was evident as he bounced around on the spot.
"Yes we can! Come on." Alice smiled as Danny grabbed his Jeep keys, he linked his arm with hers and walked out, on his way he spotted Evan.
"Evan! We're off to the doctors. See you later yeh?" Danny shouted.
"Yeh! Seeya!" Evan smiled, before tuning back to feeding the elephants.
Danny grinned at Alice as they both climbed into the Jeep, he stroked her knee lovingly.
"I love you." Danny smiled.
"I love you too." Alice grinned before kissing him passionately on the lips.
