Thank you all for the reviews, I kinds of have a direction I want to take this now, hope you're enjoying this.


It was 3 am in the morning and Peter reached out beside him feeling nothing but cold sheets, he sighed and forced his eyes open only to find that Carla wasn't there beside him let alone Evie. He slid out of bed questioning everything that happened when they went to bed last night, Carla was very fragile at the moment and he was worried that if something was to happen then she would go off the rails and forget about Evie and her wellbeing. Peter hated to doubt her but right now he couldn't help but think about the implications of Rob in their lives and when he glanced down at his naked body he couldn't help but think he took advantage of Carla's mental state. Peter made his way to the nursery where Carla was cuddling Evie against her chest as she dozes peacefully with their daughter in her arms.

"Carla, love" Peter rouses her gently as she jumps slightly, her eyes fluttering open and a soft smile on her face

"Oh god, I'm sorry I must've fallen asleep" she groans tilting her head back Peter planting a soft kiss on her lips, then planting a kiss on the top of Evie's head as Carla smirks suggestively

"So…you usually walk around the house naked then?" Carla whispers suggestively as Peter glances down to his naked body, a smirk on his face

"Hmm Mrs Barlow, I must inform you that when I walk around the house naked, I do it for me and only me"

"Oh really? That mustn't be very satisfactory, must it?" Carla whispers sauntering over to put Evie in the cot before returning to wrap her arms around Peter's neck and kissing him softly on the lips, her tongue pressing against his lips as he deepens the kiss, his tongue wrestling with hers as they swirl around each other, Peter moving to kiss her neck, sucking tenderly on her flesh

"Mmm" Carla moans as Peter assaults her neck, his tongue hot against her aching skin as Carla's hand trails down to grip the base of Peter's cock stimulating it until it was hard under her touch causing him to moan

"Oh god" Peter groans as Carla drops to her knees licking her lips, her eyes blazing into Peter's as she takes him into her mouth, her tongue tracing patterns along the underside of his cock as Peter's hands fall to her hair, pulling at it gently to spur her on

"Carla" Peter whispers as he rocks his hips gently, Carla sucking the tip of his cock before taking him in her mouth again sucking solely on him causing him to grunt and release, Carla swallowing before her gag reflex kicked in her eyes twinkling up at him as she pulls away Peter kissing her fully on the lips, his tongue battling hers again as he walks her towards the wall pinning her up against it causing a cackle, Peter pressing a finger to her lips to silence her

"Get on with it Peter" Carla moans as Peter purposely toys with her robe, pulling at the knot gently to reveal her naked body, Peter trailing a finger from her thigh toward her centre causing her breath to become shallow as Peter teases the skin on her thigh causing her to groan in frustration as she shrugs her robe off, the satin material crumpling in a pile on the floor

"Peter" she scolds in anticipation moving her hand to her clit to get some relief, Peter pinning her tighter against the wall rubbing his throbbing length through her folds, dragging it through them causing Carla to buck her hips against his, feeling his member throb when sliding through her folds

"You're doing my 'ead in" Carla complains as Peter pulls away completely backing away from her, Carla following him and pinning him down on the rocking chair, straddling him and forcing him to enter to her, his cock buried deep inside of her, feeling it throb inside of her as she tries her best to ground herself against Peter's hips even though his strength was far superior

"Just relax baby" Peter whispers, his breath hot against her neck as she grunts in response, Peter rolling his hips ever so gently which made Carla glare menacingly into his eyes, Peter taking her by surprise and thrusting up into her as she tilts her head back, her mouth agape with pleasure

"Oh baby, yes!" Carla cries as she feels Peter's penis slide in and out of her, Peter finally allowing her to grind down on top of it, here hands gripping onto Peter's arms, her nails digging into his skin as her legs begin to tremble, the rocking chair moving frantically back and forth with every thrust spurring them both on

"Let go Carla" Peter begs as Carla tilts her head back rocking her hips as fast as possible shifting in position slightly which brought her to the brink as she whimpers before crying out as her orgasm took over her body, her body shaking profusely on top of Peter's as she comes out from her high allowing Peter to thrust up into her as she recovers as he releases his juices lining her vagina, mixing with hers, Evie's cries interrupting them causing Carla to jump off Peter wincing at the loss of having him buried inside of her to tend to their daughter

"Oh darlin' I'm sorry if we woke you up" Carla coos holding Evie against her naked chest, Evie relishing in the skin to skin contact and settling down into a comfortable state

"Is she ok?" Peter smirks as Carla pouts her lips rubbing Evie's back and bouncing her gently as she walks around the room

"Hmm she's just a bit unhappy" Carla smirks glancing to a naked Peter who was still sitting on the rocking chair recovering from his orgasm

"Shall we get back to bed then?" Peter questions standing behind her and massaging her shoulders to relieve the tension as she sighs turning to face him to nod in agreement

"Come on then" Peter whispers leading both Carla and Evie into their bedroom, ready to sleep for the rest of the night after their lust was sated…

Carla and Peter woke later on in the morning to Evie's cries, knowing that she needed a change Peter took her into the nursery to allow Carla to grab a bit more sleep, Peter changed Evie into a fresh nappy and sleepsuit going over to the rocking chair and having a cuddle with his daughter, moments which were rare on most occasions with Carla caring for Evie almost full time.

"You're looking more and more like your mum every day you know that sweetheart?" Peter whispers to his daughter as she gurgles in response looking up at Peter with her eyes open

"She also looks like you too you know" Carla smiles leaning against the doorway with her hair scraped up in a ponytail, her arms crossed on her chest

"Come here" Peter smirks as Carla catches his smirk as if it was infectious as they both laugh at the memories of the sex they had on the rocking chair, as Carla plants a kiss on Evie's head, Peter puckering his lips for one as Carla rolls her eyes kissing him softly

"So then what are we going to do today then Miss Evie?" Carla questions as Peter smiles at her rubbing Evie's back tenderly

"Shall we…hmmm…go to see Roy?" Carla questions scooping Evie up from Peter's chest and planting a kiss on Evie's forehead as she holds her

"Make sure the officer goes with you if you're going out-"

"Peter I'm not a child-" she starts but Peter just puts a finger to her lips to silence her causing her to roll her eyes

"Listen to me. I just want you and Evie to be safe so will you take the copper's advice and take the officer with you?"

"Fine, even if it is only over the road" Carla mutters as Peter grins triumphantly causing a glare from Carla herself

"Ok good, why don't you go and freshen up and I will cuddle Evie for a bit?" Peter offers taking his daughter as Carla nods kissing his lips gently and heading off to have a shower ready to go to Roy's

With Carla dressed she spent an hour getting Evie's stuff ready, making sure she had spare clothes and nappies as well as blankets in case it got cold. The officer was still protecting Carla and Evie in case Rob was going to turn up and put the frighteners on them but either way, she wasn't going to let him dictate her life, so she made the way to Roy's.

"Carla!" Roy greets her as she rubs Evie's back through the sling, Carla glancing around the room and clocking Michelle in the corner looking rather downtrodden staring into her brew

"Hi Roy, could I get a coffee? And what about a bacon roll?"

"Of course. Shona can you handle the customers?" Roy questions as Shona appears nodding going to take someone's order, as Roy leads Carla over to one of the tables

"I need to ask you a question, Roy" Carla smiles slightly as Roy nods curtly in response

"Of course"

"Would you like to be Evie's grandad?" Carla questions taking her out of the sling and offering her to Roy who cradles her

"I wouldn't like to take that position from Johnny, even if he is no longer with you" Roy replies as Carla sighs glancing at the scene in front of her, tears filling her green eyes

"That's why I asked you, I want her to have a grandad, someone who will spoil her rotten, and right now Johnny can't fulfil that. I want her to have a family who love her and who will do anything for her and you fill that role, Roy" Carla smiles as Roy glances down to Evie who was sleeping peacefully in his arms

"Carla, I would be more than happy to" Roy confirms as Carla grins excitedly glancing to Michelle in the corner of the room who was wiping her eyes

"I don't suppose you could just hold her whilst I speak to Michelle?" Carla questions nodding towards the corner of the café as Roy nods

"Y-Yes I would love to" Roy nods as Carla smiles getting up and heading to the corner of the café to join Michelle

"Did I say you could sit there?" Michelle huffs as Carla scoffs in response rolling her eyes and folding her arms across her chest

"No, but I think you owe me don't you for screwing my brother" Carla hisses as Michelle glares at her, tears filling her eyes as Carla leans forward

"Now let me tell you something Michelle, quite frankly I don't ever want to see you again so if you don't move out of Weatherfield there will be hell to pay" Carla raises her eyebrows, her eyes blazing into Michelle's

"You know what? I will be glad to get out of here" Michelle states grabbing her stuff and storming out of the café laving Carla to grin triumphantly as she heads back over to Roy who was holding a whimpering Evie

"Is she unsettling?" Carla questions as Roy bounces Evie gently in his arms causing her to let out a strained cry, Carla taking her off him to hold her close to her chest, kissing her gently on the top of her head

"Did I do something wrong?" Roy questions matter-of-factly as Carla chuckles slightly at his concerns wrapping the sling around Evie

"No of course not Roy, she's just being fussy and she's quite attached to me, Peter even has problems and he's her dad" Carla laughs slightly as Roy nods grabbing his apron and heading back to the counter to help Shona allowing Carla to head back home with Evie

"Hey darlin'" Peter greets her as she approaches the bar giving him a quick kiss on the cheek

"I need to change her then I'll be with you" Carla smiles as Peter nods gesturing for her to go out the back to change Evie

"You alright, love? You seem quiet" Peter observes bringing her into a comforting embrace as she sighs tearfully, letting her defences come crumbling down

"I saw Michelle" she sniffles causing Peter to tilt her head up to meet his awaiting lips "She's getting out of Weatherfield"

"That's a good thing isn't it?"

"No, because it was me who made her go, I gave her an ultimatum. I'm such a bad person" Carla cries as Peter sighs at the state she was in

"You're not Carla, don't ever think that, you were just letting your feelings get the better of you"

"Was I though? Or was I just being a cold-hearted bitch?" Carla questions incredulously storming out of the room in a rage causing Evie to let out a cry, Peter scooping her up and holding her close causing her cries to soften

"What are we going to do with your Mummy then?" Peter questions as Evie gurgles leaving Peter to wonder whether Carla would be ok and at that thought, it was when Peter came up with a plan…
