The warm sun heated my skin as I sat outside, awaiting a black BMW car to pull up to the kerb. Randy was becoming his old self again, he was going to work regularly, he was going to see him family and most of all he was smiling. He was the sweet and kind person that he used to be. Myself on the other hand, while I was pleased to have my best friend happy and healthy, I missed my own family so much. I missed Peter, Molly, Adele and most of all Wade. I wondered how they were all doing and how they were managing without me. I eagerly looked up and down the street hoping to see the car drive toward the house so I could see that signature smirk that I loved so much. Then suddenly I heard a roar of an engine and the sound came tunnelling down the street. I stood up to see who it was and noticed the orange sports car which could only be owned by John. I watched as he got out of his car and walked toward me. The dimples in his cheeks appeared as he smiled at me. "Hi John" I said, "Big day tomorrow."

He grinned, "It is a big day, I'm getting married but this time I'm sure the bride won't kiss my friend." I frowned at his joke. "Too soon?" he said.

"Just a little" I said.

"Sorry" he said, "Anyway I came to see if you were definitely coming? Alex told me at your birthday party, that you didn't feel comfortable."

"Oh no, it's not because of us, it was more because I have this large stomach" I said looking down at the bulge I had coming out of my dress.

He chuckled, "It'll mean a lot to Alex, you're one of her closest friends and it would mean a lot to me... I mean you're very important person to me, Lea. Even if we didn't find love with each other, I'd hope that our friendship would mean enough for you to be there."

I smiled, "Of course I'll be there. The little one will definitely want to be there for his Uncle John and Aunt Alex's wedding."

"I'd love it for you two to be there" said John, "Wade told me that he'd be there to bring you too... and just so you know I am very happy for you and Wade. I can see that you two truly love each other."

"As I can see with you and Alex, I'm glad you two are together. You two make a great couple."

"Well in a weird way, if you and I hadn't broken up then I wouldn't have been able to fall in love with her and she is absolutely amazing, I cannot wait to be married" said John.

I nodded, "Me neither." I stared at my engagement ring, as I fantasised about my own wedding.

"Lea... I just have to ask, how is living here with Randy, going to help him? I mean if anything, it's going to make him think you love him and he might try to break your relationship with Wade like he did to you and I" said John.

"That's the thing, you or Wade don't know him like I do. Outside he seems like this suave, confident and put together man but inside he just needs love. We all do. But he's alone, all his friends hate him" I said glancing at him, "He doesn't have anyone and he feels especially hurt because I chose Wade over him. I just want him to know that I may be in love with another man but he still is important to me."

John shook his head, "I just hope you don't hurt someone else." I watched his glance move toward the black BMW was parked on the driveway and there was my English fiancé leaning against the car, he smiled as he paced toward us.

Wade smirked as he stood in front of me, his tall figure shadowing me from the sun. I felt weak in the knees. He softly kissed my lips and then draped his long arm over my shoulders, "Is this some sort of mother's meeting?" he said looking at John.

"I was just making sure you two were coming tomorrow. Just having a nice chat with my good friend" said John then he glanced at me, "I'm pleased that we both ended up with the right people, Lea."

"So am I" I said wrapping my arms around Wade, pulling myself tighter toward his chest.

John simply nodded to the both of us and escaped from our sight.

I then looked up at Wade who was already gazing at me, "Shall we go?"

"Wait..." he said, he kneeled down in front of me so his head was in front of my stomach, he gently kissed it and then spoke, "Hello son, its Dad here. Yes I know Dad has a funny voice, but your mother thinks it's very sexy."

I laughed as I watched him.

"I hope you've been a good boy and haven't given your mother too much grief. But I guess that's what you're here for. Your older sister Adele cannot wait to see you. She's already gotten her toys out ready to share with you" he said, "So just know that you're family love you very much and mostly I, cannot wait to see you" he said, his eyes became glossy.

"You are just the sweetest, Wade Barrett" I said looking down at him.

He sniffed his nose and grinned as he stood up. He linked his fingers with mine and walked me toward the car where he kindly opened the door and helped me to sit down. Then he sat in the driver's seat and we were off to our appointment with Doctor Neidhart.

...

"So Lea, you are about 20 weeks pregnant right now, so you're about half way through your pregnancy. Now from the ultrasound we can see everything is good and healthy" said Natalya as she applied the transducer probe onto my stomach while Wade and I stared at the monitor, "You can see that there's some hair forming on his scalp."

"He's probably going to have some of my gorgeous dark hair" laughed Wade.

I smiled, "Maybe Wade, maybe."

Natalya grinned, "Well you might actually start to begin feeling some movements as he's becoming a lot stronger."

"He's going to start kicking?" I asked excitedly.

She nodded, "Very soon."

Wade frowned, becoming withdrawn from two of us. I noticed his slight sadness; I knew what it was about. The baby was going to be doing things and Wade was going to miss out because I was living with Randy. "Are you okay?" I asked him.

He smiled, "I'm fantastic; I'm pleased to know that you and my son are healthy." He grabbed onto my hand and kissed my cheek.

Natalya watched the two of us, "You two are adorable, I fully believe you two will be great parents."

"Well Wade is already a great father" I said gazing at him.

"I can already see that, you're very lucky Lea" she said.

"She is" said Wade, his signature smirk plastered on his face.

Suddenly this idea grew in my mind, "So Nattie, I have a very sweet friend who could use a date."

Wade looked up at me baffled. I just ignored him, "He is very smart, nice and very good looking. So what are you up to tomorrow?"

"He's not as great as me, but he comes close" said Wade figuring out who I spoke about.

She looked slightly interested but sighed, "I'm actually busy tomorrow... I'll be here."

"Right you'll be working... oh well maybe next time" I said. I felt a little disappointed that she couldn't be Randy's date. I pondered on the idea that maybe she could be a great match with him, I mean I got Adele and Phil together.

"I'm sorry, Lea" she said.

"It's alright" said Wade, "There's always another time where Lea can try to fix you up with someone."

Natalya chuckled, "I'm flattered that she wants to."

"Well I think you're amazing and that you deserve to be with someone who is as amazing as you" I said.

She grinned.

"Then are you sure you should set her up with Randy" muttered Wade. I punched his arm as we walked ourselves out.

...

As we were driving home, Wade reached for my hand. I smiled at him. I felt saddened that I was letting Wade be away from his child. I was wondering whether I should come back home. On one hand I really wanted to come home and be with my own family while on the other hand I felt pulled to stay with Randy. I was pondering on the former.

"I hope you have a good time tomorrow" said Wade.

I looked at him bewildered by his statement, "Huh? What do you mean? Aren't you coming?"

He frowned, "I would love to, but I have a really important meeting at work. I mean who has a wedding on a Friday. Only someone with as much brain capacity as John does would do something as foolish as that."

"So I have to go by myself" I regretted my decision to go, "Why didn't you tell him today when we saw him?"

"I thought when he said I'm making sure the two of you come tomorrow, I thought he meant the baby and you" he said.

I scowled at him, "You're fully aware that he meant you and I, I can't believe you're leaving me for a stupid meeting."

"I'm sure you can find someone to go in my place, ask your father or maybe your cousin Bethany, she's a lovely lady."

Was he being serious? "Everyone is already invited, my Dad is taking Stephanie, Adele and Phil are going together and I'm sure I'd rather walk the streets naked with my large bulging stomach then go to the wedding of my ex fiancé with Bethany, she's try to make it as horrible as possible to make me try to regret not marrying him" I exclaimed.

He smirked, "I would enjoy the idea of you being naked."

I shook my head, "Are you sure you can't come? I wish you had told me sooner before John guilted me into going."

"I'm sorry, if this wasn't as important as it is then I would certainly come with you. But I think it's good if you go. It'll be great" he said.

Suddenly my plan grew into action, "I'll take Randy with me."

"Come again?"

"Maybe Randy can come with me and maybe he and John could sort through their issues" I said.

"Are you crazy!" exclaimed Wade, "Do you want John to throw him out? He'll give him a lot more bruises and I'm sure he'd give you one too."

"Well, I don't have anyone else... I really want to see the two of them be friends again, Randy has changed and I know that now he and John can make up" I said.

He sighed, "I know you want them to be friends again, but maybe this is something that should be between the two of them and I'm sure John doesn't want to look down at the man he despises most on what's supposed to be the happiest day of his life."

We pulled in front of Randy's house; I looked at the driveway where Randy's car was parked. He must have been home from work. I gazed back at Wade, "Well then I guess... I'm going alone" I muttered.

He kissed my lips, "I wish I could be there." He got out of his seat and walked toward my side of the car and opened the door.

"Me too" I pouted as Wade pulled me out of the car.

"I'll see you soon then" said Wade, "I love you."

I hated leaving him, "I love you too and I'll call you straightaway if anything happens with the baby."

He nodded, looking a little saddened as he stole another kiss before leaving.

I glanced up at the house and there was Randy running toward me. He linked his arm with mine, "You got to give me some warning Lea, I need to look after you. Your fiancé's orders."

I laughed; he was so much more cheerful and fun to be around again. This delicious aroma was coming from the kitchen, "So what's that smell?"

Randy blushed, "I made dinner for us; I got to keep you and the baby healthy."

"Wow, thank you Randy" I said as he sat me on the couch, "So... what are you doing tomorrow in the daytime?"

"I have work? Why?"

"You have to call in sick, because you're coming with me to John's wedding" I said.

He looked at me confused, "What? I'm going where?"

"Do you want to be friends with John again?"

Randy nodded, "Of course, I do."

"Then pick up the phone and tell your boss, you're ill" I said.

I watched him reluctantly pick up the phone and walk into the kitchen. At least I had someone to go to the wedding with me.
