Part III
Five months down the line, Selena was 6th months pregnant and at home, Harry had stopped her from working much to her disliking. Selena was sat at on the sofa watching Loose Woman the topical female debate show, even though she loved the show, she was beginning to get bored, she hated pregnant life it seemed all the things she wanted to do she couldn't. Sometimes she felt Harry hated her for being pregnant, getting chubby ankles, a bit of a stomach and a very bad hormonal status, other times she felt he loved her, as he was still treating her with respect and buying so many gifts to show he cared, but with him only being at work, she missed having him around nearly 24/7 as it used to be. And as for one ting they hadn't even got married yet, so many things were in the way of that the pregnancy, Selena being a divorcee caused an issue for it being a church wedding, but they were still on thinking how to get round that factor amongst decorating the baby's room.
As Loose Woman came to a break, Selena heard the doorbell ring 'great' she thought as she made her way to the front door, she hoped it was Harry coming home for some reason and tried to surprise her. But as she opened the door she realised it wasn't, she looked at the two faces that stood before her in total disbelief this was all she needed. A woman who blatantly hated her and the daughter that found out about Selena and Harry's first relationship. However the two woman just started at her wondering why she was there as they were the only to that didn't know about Harry and Selena getting back together.
Tally: Where's mi dad
Harry: He's at work... does he know you're here
Tally: wouldn't be asking of he did
Lara: So what are you doing here Saline
Selena: It's Selena.. I could ask you two the same question
Tally: whatever
Tally shoved passed Selena with her bags and subsequently so did Lara, it seemed they would be staying for a while. The then sat on the sofa leaving baffled by their entrance and she closed the door and walked into the living room
Selena: Make yourself at home
Tally: Its still our home
Lara: to a certain extent as we have my house over in Australia
Tally: (laughing) one of many
Selena: Right... do you want a drink
Tally: yeah Tea for me no sugar
Lara: Black coffee two sugars
Selena (false smile) right I'll go do that
Whilst Selena was in the kitchen, Lara and Tally talk about Selena
Lara: so she's back, didn't take her long, as soon as I leave she sees the chance
Tally: I wonder why she's here, she can't be working back at Holby not after last time
Lara: hospitals are strange places
Tally: yeah...
Lara: It looks like she lives here then
Tally: possibly... I can't believe dad's let her back in
Lara: neither can i after what she did to your family
Tally: exactly, I mean having an affair with dad... and still wanting it to carry on after mum died... she's twisted
Lara: Yeah... and she acted like she owned the hospital
Tally: the bitch... I want to know why she is back I mean I doubt dad will be that stupid
Lara: Harry is known for making mistakes you should know that...
Tally: too right... is it me or does she look fat
Lara: I bet she's pregnant... and whoever the dad is ditched her and she came back to Harry because she knows he would take her back because he's always making mistakes
Tally: I hope that's true... I can't see her and dad getting it on I mean he wouldn't go there again and he goes for blondes.. like you
Lara: yeah, I noticed
Tally: Do you still like dad
Lara: Harry will always have a place in my heart
Tally: Well now that Simon's out the question, you've got your chance again
Selena walks in as Lara was about to give Tally a reply... she hands them each a mug with there drinks in and sits herself back down on the sofa
Lara: You not made yourself one
Selena: No.. Harry says I should stay off the caffeine
Tally: Dad always looks out for people doesn't he?
Selena: yeah.. He does
Lara: we didn't expect you to return to holby...
Selena: I don't think many people would expect to see you two back either
Tally: we have friends here... what about you
Selena: I'm a Staff Grade in ED I work as a police surgeon as well as a neurologist... and I've been back in Holby for 1 and a half years now
Lara: how did you get a job in ED again though, I mean surely after last time
Selena: I was appointed there... Ed needed more staff I was chosen but I got freelancing work outside the hospital in which I worked with my Husband at the time on crimes and that which is really fascinating to be involved and helping these people... on a medical side
Lara: Interesting... you said husband at the time, what did you mean
Selena: DI Manning.. man of charms and displacement activity knocking boots as a matter of fact on my first full day back at holby and after two months of marriage can't believe I actually stayed married to him for what another 12 months... best day of my life divorcing him all he did was have affairs with blond bimbo
Lara: (Sarcastically) poor you
Selena: same could be said for you, I heard your husband to be died on your wedding day... and you fled your own wedding
Lara: That's a different matter
Tally: Simon was a gorme anyway
Lara: How far gone are you
Selena: 6th months...
Tally: And you divorced your husband at a time like this
Selena: It's not his, we were long divorced by then when I found out
It feel silent, Lara and Tally exchanged glances wondering as to the real reason fro why Selena was here, as she never said and they wondered whom was the father to Selena's baby as they believed it wouldn't be Harry's. Selena however kept on glancing at the clock wishing Harry's shift would be finished soon.
Soon the time came when Harry walked in through; as he walked in the living room, he failed to notice his guests, and went straight to Selena, in which he leant over and kissed Selena who was leant against the arm of the sofa
Harry: You okay
Selena: yeah, I'm fine
Harry: good
Selena: Harry... we've got two guests
Harry: What? (Turning around) Tally... Lara
Tally: (not impressed) Dad
Lara: Harry, good to see you again
Harry: same to you both
Harry sits down on the sofa next to Selena, in which he allows her to rest into him
Harry: So what are you two doing here?
Tally: Got bored and decided to come home for a while... I hope you don't mind... we want to stay here for a while until we can find a flat
Harry: I don't know.. me and Selena have a lot to go on
Tally: what's it to her anyway
Lara: That's a good question Tally... but from what I've just seen its obvious
Tally: tell me about it
Harry: Selena and I are engaged and our to have a baby
Lara: we can tell with the baby bit... but no Harry I thought you knew better
Tally: That's sick dad.. How could you... can I have a word... privately
Harry: Whatever it is you can say here
Selena: Harry... she's you're daughter respect her wishes...
Tally gives Selena a look, before looking at her dad
Tally: well
Harry: Okay... in the kitchen.. (to Selena and Lara) You two will be fine in here
Selena: of course
Lara: why wouldn't I be... oh yeah I forgot we don't get on so much so I don't know
Harry: just be nice please and I mean that Lara
Lara: why was that to me?
Harry: Because I know what you're, like
Lara: (flirting) bullying me again... Harry, I can't have that
Tally and Harry go into the kitchen; Harry stands by the worktop and Tally paces around
Tally: How could you dad... how could you go back to her how
Harry: I love Selena
Tally: Love... don't joke about.. she was the reason mum died
Harry: Tally don't start that again.. we went through this years ago... I thought you'd be old enough to except these things
Tally: but not when it involves a woman that you were with when mum died... don't you understand that
Harry: grow up Tally... you've forgiven Lara about Simon so why not let me be happy with Selena
Tally: She doesn't love you... she's just using you to get things like she did first time round
Harry: How do you know Tally, you haven't been here... and I know for sure she loves me... she doesn't use people and she has said on many occasions that she does
Tally: To get what she wants
Harry: No Selena isn't like that the first three months of our relationship were a rocky ride, she was ill and she needed someone by her and she wanted me... and I love Selena, we're going to get married and have a family together
Tally: and she'll become my stepmother...
Harry: just because you're not happy with it doesn't mean its not going to happen because it is... Selena means a lot to me, if your mother didn't die then we would have been together longer...
Tally: and if mum did find out, then what
Harry: I would have chosen Selena
Tally: what if she just left you... I give it a few months and I bet you'll be all alone again... if you hadn't have been so stupid, maybe you could have had Lara
Harry: Lara was a mistake
Tally: really...
Harry: Yes, really, she didn't want me, and I was just caught up with mixed signals
Tally: why do you think she came back with me... she hasn't said it but she wants you back
Harry: no... Don't say that Tally... because I'm not interested,
Tally: thought you liked blondes
Harry: not really, I go for the person within, Selena is the most beautiful, strong willed, committed gifted woman, and I respect her for that... that is why I love her... whatever you see her as she's not like that
Tally: Oh whatever
Harry: If you can't accept this then you and Lara should just leave go back to Melbourne and get on with life, and don't try to ruin mine
Tally: I thought you would have understood
However, in the living room Lara got talking to Selena
Lara: So you and Harry how did that come about again
Selena: what are you trying to say?
Lara: Nothing, it's just that you and Harry caused a big stir back when I was in Holby
Selena: That was then... I love Harry I always have... walking away from him was the worst thing I could have done, I loved him and had to walk away because I was hated and blamed for falling in love he didn't want me to go but I did and I regret doing that
Lara: You love him
Selena: I wouldn't be here if I didn't
Lara: so how did you two come about then... as in get together?
Selena: When I arrived back at Holby, things were a little shaky but when I separated from Will things just got back to normal, Harry was the only one who managed to make me smile I suppose we flirted a lot, but never really said what we wanted... it wasn't until I was stabbed Harry admitted his feelings for me, and I turned him away because I was scared, I found out about Will and Ellen and I went to pieces I didn't know what I wanted... but I realised it was Harry we got talking and I told him how I felt and it all just happened we became an item
Lara: Like a fairytale come true... lovers dream... it wont last I'm telling you, but anyway tell me how you got to this stage, I'm egar to know
Selena: I got ill I caught MRSA
Lara: In Holby
Selena: yes, there was an outbreak on Keller too , but it wasn't till two months I think after I was well Maggie was saying I'd been off and should go down to maternity so I did, I remember being told I was four weeks pregnant and when I was going to tell Harry he proposed to me... in reception... that was the best day of my life
Lara: that certainly a story, must be true love then
Selena: very much so
Lara: don't you know what this could do to Harry's children
Selena: Kizzy, Daisy, Jordan, and Ollie already know and they're happy about it we talked to them when we first started this relationship
Lara: what about Tally, did you two ever think to tell her?
Selena: I suggest that she should no, but as she was in Australia with you, Harry said there was no point... but if she can't except that then that's her problem, I'm not going to leave not this time I'm not loosing Harry just because his daughter thinks wrongly of it
Lara: but you were with Harry the night Beth died
Selena: You won't let me forget that will you... why did.. DO you hate me you can't help falling in love
Lara: I was a friend of Beth's a close friend and I know you can't help falling in love but you knew Harry was married so why did you go there
Selena: because I wanted him, I fell for him there and then... and the same happened to him... you know that night he wanted me to go back to his place, but I told him my place was less risky.. None of it happened though...
Lara: but it would have, it was all I want with you, that another thing I don't like about you... you act like you own everything..
Selena: I do not.. It's just I'm strong minded and have great believe in my work, but yes I do get what I want, but I work hard to get it
Lara: so that's your excuse
Selena: no, it's the truth and if you can't take that.. Then (felling a kick from the baby) just forget it
At that Tally and Harry walk back in, Tally strops about like a prima-Dona, Harry however sidles himself back to Selena.
Harry: you two ladies have a good chat
Selena: yeah we set a few things straight didn't we...
Lara: (snidely) yes...
Selena: what about you two
Tally: obviously not, I mean come on...
Harry: Tally...
Tally: okay...
Harry: good... (To Selena) you feeling okay
Selena: (hand on tummy) yeah, just feeling a bit tired
Harry: (putting his arm around her) aww
Selena: you still love me though, like this, fat and boring
Harry: Selena... I'll love you know matter what, and you're not boring especially...
Tally: oh that's sick
Harry: what
Tally: you two... never did this with mum be all sweet and loved up
Harry: Beth was different... she didn't like that kind of stuff much.. your mum was more of a quiet person, who just loved children
Tally: and what you two are just based on fun loving and accidental pregnancy's.. please
Lara: she right... you know.. Harry you and Beth were sweet, good parents there was love there, but you and Selena, is wrong, I don't see nothing between you apart from Lust I say come on Harry a woman you had a affair with is really the love of your life...
Selena: (really stressing) can you just shut up! Why are you talking as if I'm not here and that it's my fault... have you ever actually gave it a thought... this is our life now, not yours ours and if me and Harry want to be together then that's our decision not yours now I love Harry and he's everything to me... I just can't understand why you hate this... and if its Beth then you need to get over it she's dead. We're in love... (Putting her hands to her head)
Harry: Hey, hey, hey... there's no need for this, this is not good for your health Selena, seriously you should be taking it easy in your condition
Tally: save the pity she don't deserve it
Selena just burst out crying, Lara laughed under her breath, and Tally looked evilly at her
Harry: (hugging Selena) you should go and get some rest
Selena just wiped her tears and nodded and walked away,
Once Selena had gone, Harry took a turn for bad temper; he had that angry look upon his face
Harry: What on earth do you think you were doing?
Tally: I weren't doing anything, just saying the truth that's all
Harry: The truth... both of you don't know the truth... and Lara I thought you'd have known better
Lara: Better, I could be saying the same to you
Harry: don't start, look just leave both of you
Tally: we've got no-where to go, you can't just throw us out like this, I'm your daughter
Lara: Come on Harry
Harry: I'm sorry I can't, this is Selena's home now as much as it's mine
Tally: here we go again
Harry: Just stop this... I'm marrying Selena, we're going to bring up our baby, and we will be happy
Tally: and I'm going to be forgotten about
Lara: and what about you're other kids, what will you do about them
Harry: Of course, I won't forget, it's just our baby is going to come first... you've had your time, and now I've moved on and so should you
Lara: that's hardly fair
Harry: Fair...what's not fair is you're not letting me be happy, just please try and except Selena, she isn't a vain woman who is here to take over everything, she is a beautiful caring woman now I want you to see that, so I'm letting you stay but anything such as I foot over the line you're out of here, and I mean that
Tally: (Hugging Harry) thanks dad I knew you wouldn't have me out on the streets
Harry: well you are my daughter
Tally: I'm going loo now you got me all excited
Tally runs out of the living room and goes to the upstairs bathroom, Lara walks over to Harry and touches his shoulder
Lara: Thanks... I always knew that you would let us stay
Harry: (moving away) I'm doing this to show Tally I care... Selena will understand, she's that sort of person
Lara: she'd best or she'll have me to answer to
Harry: Lara don't... you'll make things worse... I know you two don't get along, but you could at least have shown some compassion
Lara: she ruined your life
Harry: no, Selena didn't... I love her Lara and not even, you can change my feelings towards her
Lara: sure about that
Harry: positive
Meanwhile, Tally was making her way upstairs to supposedly use the bathroom, when she stopped outside Harry and Selena's room Tally peered in trying not to be noticed and there she saw Selena sitting on the bed, crying. A small sense of guilt ran through Tally and she watched the tearful pregnant woman. Tally slowly walks into the bedroom and sits on the end of the bed
Selena just looked at her through the tears with an evil glare; Tally was one of the reasons as to why she was crying. Tally tried to look all-innocent but that look didn't work
Selena: (Crying) what
Tally: you okay
Selena: (still crying) what would you care... I tried to be nice but all you did was treat me like shit
Tally: I'm only asking, look dad is letting me and Lara stay so I'm sorry for what I said
Selena: (crying) what you said hurt me and Lara... I love Harry, and I always have, you know I do... you're the one who got our relationship broadcast around the hospital
Tally: yeah my mum had been dead for two weeks
Selena: (crying) and we were together for 5 weeks, I loved him and still do, and if I've lost everything because of you then I hope you're happy
Tally: he wouldn't do that to you, I've realised that I can see he loves you, but I still can't accept this as of my mum... but he said if she was still alive... he...he would chose you ... how do you think that makes me feel, my family was torn apart
Selena:(Calming down) you can't choose who you fall in love with and it was instant with us maybe not first time round but on that drugs trial I realised how much I liked him and I didn't care that he was married as long as I could have him, and now that I do, I don't want it ruined
Tally: you can't always get what you want
Selena: I've got Harry and that's all I want, nothing else... I wouldn't dream of treating Harry bad, have an affair, or anything.. I love him to much to do that Harry is the only man that has ever been good towards me, so what we have is special.. Just don't wish it to be taken away, from your dad please
Tally: alright, but it wont make me forget what you did... what both of you did, look I'm sorry for being funny about it but, it's just...
Selena: Don't worry about it, I know what it's like to see someone you love and care about with someone else, but we're happy just let it stay that way... do you really want to see Harry down again loosing everything.. That he wanted
Tally: no... But
Selena: you can't hate me forever... I'm not even going to try and take the place from your mum, I wouldn't dream of doing that, I will have my own child to look after, all I'm doing is becoming your dads wife... nothing else, so all I'm asking is to be happy that he has someone.. Who loves him... if not for us than just do it for Harry
A single tear ran down Selena's face, Tally was sat in thought
Tally: look, I don't know, maybe... it depends...
Tally left the bedroom leaving Selena, hoping she had said the right things
A few hours later, Tally and Lara had gone to their rooms, they were using whilst on their stay, Selena was still upstairs, she hasn't been down since being told to get some rest, and Harry had came, up, he thought she was asleep as she seemed so peaceful as she lay, but secretly she was awake, she was just trying to hide the fact that she was upset. But once she felt Harry kiss her on the head, turned of the light, Selena sat up, hard as it was with a bump on her.
Harry noticed this and turned on the lamp by his side of the bed and sat up, he could see the stern look upon her face; he reached out for her hand
Harry: you alright
Selena: I can't do this Harry,
Harry: (squeezing her hand tighter) Do what?
Selena: everything... us... the baby... I can't do it
Harry: (moving his hand away) Selena, don't do this
Selena: It's not going to work... Tally doesn't want it to happen, its obvious and Lara hates the idea of it all... she hates me more, with them around it's not going to happen... how can we be ourselves, every move we make it's going to be watched upon and they will make it difficult.. Don't get me wrong, I love you Harry... but this makes it ever so difficult
Harry: Selena, I love you too, and I can promise you this will work... Tally is old enough to get on with her life she has to learn to get over it and we did say we're not letting her opinion get in the way
Selena: what about Lara.. come on it's not hard to see why she is REALLY here
Harry: I can deal with Lara, she won't do anything..., and she's not going to stop me loving you
Selena: I don't know that, I know what she's like, I could tell from the day I first met her.. spoilt brat
Harry: Selena, don't work yourself up about her... as this is about you and me and are little life inside you...
Selena: I know but, I don't want your friends and family coming in between us, I know that sounds selfish, but I'm only here because I want to be with you, I don't want anything else but that.. I don't want you taken away from me, not now, not when I'm like this
Harry: (putting his arm around her) I wont leave you and I'm not having you leave me... and nothing you say is selfish.. How about tomorrow I take the day off, I'll get someone to cover.. I'll make sure Tally and Lara are out all day and we can spend some time together, maybe narrow down on a few baby names.. Narrow down the list a bit
Selena: it's a shame we decided not to be told the sex..., but that would be great having a whole day with you, and would you really take a day off just for me...
Harry: yes
Selena: really
Harry: I said yes didn't I?
Selena: aww.. I love you Harry
Harry: (kissing her on the head) I love you too, now you should rest
Selena: Mmm I know
At that Harry turns of the light and they both snuggle up together.
The next day, Harry had managed to get Tally and Lara out of the house, Tally had gone shopping whilst Lara had gone back to Holby A+E to see a few familiar faces., first person she saw was old flame Luke.
Lara: (covering his eyes from behind) Guess who
Luke: Lara..
Lara: Yeah.. so how's things.. Bex.. Claire
Luke: don't ask... both have left, one for good and the other I don't know
Lara: aww poor you
Luke: so what are you doing back here, I'd never thought you'd come back to English land
Lara: ahh.. well I'm staying at Harry's with Tally, we're looking for a flat over here when we're visiting
Luke: so you're not staying
Lara: no... I think it will be wrong to stay here anyway... Tally is even being thrown out the frame of her own home, because it's technically still hers in a sense
Luke: Harper household not good enough then
Lara: not anymore
Radio: Holby Controls 3007
Luke: Holby Controls 3007 receiving... Lara look I've gotta go
Lara: see you around
Lara walks of freely into the hospital, as if she never left, walking through ED, she met up with old pal Abs
Abs: Hey Lara
Lara: Hey, you look well
Abs: Thanks... not looking bad yourself... fancy a coffee
Lara: oo go on then I need to get some goss off you
Abs: That depends on what goss you want
Abs and Lara walk into the staff room, Lara sits down, whilst Abs makes two cups of coffee.
Abs walked over to Lara and handed her a cup of Coffee
Lara: Thanks
Abs: So what goss do you want
Lara: well that can wait, how are you?
Abs: I married an immigrant, well her visa ran out and that, she is now a agency nurse here, after loosing her job , I'm now with her step sister
Lara: aww.. look I know this is going to sound really silly but I need to know about Harry and Selena... I just need to know how this came about, I mean I know some things about them, which happened before... I can't really explain
Abs: well what can I say.. we all new it would happen
Lara: Why do you say that?
Abs: Long story
Lara: I want to know...
Abs: well.. When Selena first joined Holby, I didn't really know much, but she just clicked with Harry.. Then it all came out about her husband, she didn't take all that well put it all up as she didn't want to know him despite that fact he was always hanging around the hospital
Lara: Lovers tiff
Abs: no it went deeper... Selena wasn't the one to go out and socialise a lot, if she wasn't working she was with Harry... they were always flirting, I remember it came talk in the staff room, how long it would take till that got it on
Lara: it doesn't seem right though
Abs: It's the only time they actually have smile son their faces, when they're together and they are actually more calm.. I think its all sweet like I said the whole Department knew it would come about.. the only people that couldn't see it was them
Lara: Oh Right... I just think its wrong, I mean this would be the second relationship they've had.. Definatly the one when his wife died and now... I can't see it working for them
Abs: you know too much... but I can truly say they are Ed's perfect match, they care a lot about each other... Lara, look I should really be getting back to work been on my break for to long, I don't want Tess on my back
Later on Lara was hanging around outside the hospital, she looked about all the things she left behind, the moments she had with Luke, Patrick, Harry and Simon all dawned her, arguments she had, love she shared, lives she saved and lost, friends she made and parted with.
She wondered as to why she ever left Holby; a few tear pricked her eyes, and with the thought of all the memories she had to get away, she didn't really know why she went back into the building in which held so much of her past for her. With these thoughts, she began to feel a strange sense inside her, one that made her want to run away, but just as she was about to she ran into a man nearly knocking him over
Lara: Oh my god I'm so sorry
Man: It's fine really
Lara: are you sure, I mean I could have knocked you dead
Man: honestly I'm fine, nothing can be worse then what I've been trough he last few months
Lara: O.. well I'm sorry, how about we go for a coffee in the café down the road, it's the least I can do
Man: If that's what you want
Lara: Well I could do with one and you look like you need one
Man: Sure, I don't even know you're name
Lara: Lara... Lara Stone
Man: Lara... nice name
Lara: Thanks, so who are you
Man: You'll find out in time. So tell me why I haven't seen you about here before
Lara: why are you asking?
Man: just so I know what type of woman I'm dealing with
Lara: ahh, well I'm a former SHO I left because so much memories
Man: And you're back because
Lara: I'm back because I'm with a friend we were a little bored in Melbourne and thought we could get a flat over here, well at the minuet we're staying with her dad... the head of Ed... my ex boss
Man: Harry Harper
Lara: yeah... we have a bit of a history and that... do you know him
Man: Mmm, he's shacked up with my ex wife
Lara: So you're Will Manning, I've heard about you and I think I'm going to get along fine with you...
Will: why do you say that?
Lara: Let's say me and Selena don't exactly see eye to eye
Will: why's that
Lara: because of what she did to Harry's family and now walking all over him
Will: really... what's worse is knowing that she chose Harry over me
Lara: I can't see why, I mean you're pretty good looking despite the tales I've heard... lets get that coffee now ey?
Will: Yeah
Selena and Harry were at home, Selena was resting into Harry they were talking about wedding plans they had just stopped the baby talk.
Harry: This wedding hey... when do you think would be the right time
Selena: I don't know Harry; I mean we can't do a church wedding as of me being a divorcee, and anyway we shouldn't be sorting all this
Harry: I want you to have the wedding you want
Selena: I know you do, but the only thing that matters is that I become Ms Harper and we become a family
Harry: and it will all happen, but we haven't even decided on a date or anything
Selena: we have a baby on the way weddings or whatever are not the things on my mind as much as I would want it to be I just I don't want the wedding to soon though
Harry: How do you mean to soon
Selena: after giving birth, I want to wait until it's at least a couple of moths old, at least 6 to 8 months and plus I'm not getting into no dress looking like this, I would want to get down to a size 10 again, hopefully
Harry: I will love you Selena no matter how you look
Selena: Harry, it will hardly look good, if I'm some fat blob will it... and thing will be a little more normal then, I'll be used to the fact that I'm a mother who won't be working full time or doing police surgeon calls
Harry: to true... how about going abroad
Selena: what for
Harry: to get married... Sun City in South Africa, it's a beautiful place and they say the couples meant to be and last marry there
Selena: So I hear. But how are we going to afford that as well as getting other people out there... and
Harry: we have the money and next summer it will be beautiful, and it's what you deserve
Selena: (smiling) how could I say no... Everything is going to be so perfect (tears of happiness start to fall) I'm so lucky to have you Harry, I always knew you were the one and it shows we've been through a lot and managed to stay together
Harry: the luck of love, can work wonders when you want it too
Selena: as I found out
Both smile, Harry runs his hand through Selena's hair,
Harry: and it will always work wonders
Selena: hopefully
Back at the café Lara and Will were sat at a side table near a window, they both had a cup of coffee. They had been discussing the topic of Harry and Selena
Lara: You should have seen her the day she walked into the hospital, well I didn't see her the first time, but from what I heard, she had Harry just like that
Will: Sound like Selena, always gets what she wants
Lara: all she cares about is herself, she didn't even care that Beth died or how Harry felt
Will: she always thought about herself if she wanted something
Lara: what was even worse she was still after him when she was dead. I had Tally telling me everything, knowing that they kissed everything
Will: you hate her because you care about Harry
Lara: Yes... no... Harry was a good friend of mine, he took me in, I was best friends with his wife, and Selena ruined all that for him... Oh Will, I shouldn't go on about her like this she was your wife
Will: and she didn't deserve me, I made her love me and all I did was cheat because I didn't love her enough and she kept coming back because she trusted me, she loved me no matter what and I broke her heart and made her get back with Harry so if you're looking for anyone to blame about them to you should blame me
Lara: I'm not blaming you, it's not your fault, I've bee talking to people in ED that I knew before I left and they said it was obvious they had a thing for each other and if you didn't love her enough then so be it
Will: she sees me the one who goes after blond bimbos Bex... Ellen whom I have just dumped a few weeks ago as she wasn't happy, My ex before I got with Selena and that discounts the copper I had when we were separated... I hurt her too much and now she won't even look at me and Harry has never really liked me since he found out I cheated on her the first time, I tried to put him down with the fact that he had an affair if I can call it that with Selena...
Lara: we don't have to talk about this you know, let's take a walk, and talk about something different
Will: yeah...
Lara: and maybe you could come back to the house for a bit
Will: I don't think that would be a good idea
Lara: Come on, it's a bit of fun; let her know she isn't wanted around here
Will: Lara... you seem to be an egar woman, what I like
Lara: Good
Lara gave Will a look only one he could describe but what it mean
Later on, back at the Harper household, Tally had returned from shopping, she was sat with a glass of wine in hand, funnily enough she had actually brought a little bear for Harry and Selena's baby.
Tally: I thought I best make some peace, I know it's not much, but I don't really know much
Selena: it's beautiful, first present it has actually got... Thanks Tally
Harry: its appreciated Tally
Tally: good, you know I think you will be good parents...i know you are already dad, but I can see you a really good mother Selena... I know you think I would never say that, but I've realised that, I just have to look at you both and see that
Selena: you don't know how much that means to me, and I know I could never be your mam, but I will always be here
Tally: Yeah (tally walks over to Selena and hugs her) you're a nice person, and I'm sorry I sad some bad things before
Selena: no problem we all do it sometimes, but I can understand after all that happened back then it was bound to affect you
Harry: now this is what I like to see,
Selena: what
Harry: you two getting along
Selena: (smiles) all we need now is Lara..
Harry: Sounds like this is her
Lara came through the door laughing they didn't know she had a visitor; it wasn't until she invited him into the living room. Harry was the first person to notice him
Harry: Lara, why is he here
Lara: because he is a friend, is that a problem
Harry: yes it is
Lara: why
Selena: Harry leave it, it's okay he can stay
Harry: Selena,
Selena: (holding Harry's hand) this is me and you now
Tally: who is this?
Lara: wouldn't you like to know
Man: Will Manning the ex
Tally: ewh
Lara: will take a seat, I'm sure there is a lot to talk about Lara smiles snidely at Selena and took a glance at Harry, whom could see what she was doing
A few minuets later the silence had lifted, Selena had too the opportunity to speak
Selena: So Will... how are things
Will: you mean Ellen
Selena: not particularly
Will: we've split
Selena: O right... I see you regained you're memory then
Will: What does it look like?
Lara: I don't think anyone could forget you
Harry: Lara don't
Will: So Selena, how are things between you and Harry
Selena: fantastic, life couldn't be better
Will: Mmm not married yet
Selena: I can hardly get married like this
Will: you stayed together though
Selena: that's kind of the idea in a relationship... commitment, staying FAITHFUL and love... and that's what I'm getting
Will: who am I to judge?
Harry: well no one really, seeing as none of that would apply to you
Lara: why wouldn't it apply to him?
Selena: you know why
Lara: Oh yes, he strayed so many times...
Harry: That's it Lara out... and take Will with you
Lara: Harry you can't do this to me
Harry: can't I.. You knew what this would do
Selena: Harry, just leave it... she needs somewhere to stay
Harry: she can stay with him
Lara: fine I will
Tally: Lara why are you doing this
Lara: As if you don't know
Tally: I don't...
Lara: some friend hey
Harry: Lara just go...
Lara: fine.. Come on Will
Will: Selena, I still care
Selena: Will don't do this...
Lara, just gives everyone a cheap look and then storms out, Will follows her. Tally, Harry Selena all look at each other confused by the events that had happened
Outside, Lara burst into tears,
Will: What's wrong?
Lara: (crying) It's Harry, why is he doing this to me
Will: Doing what
Lara: (crying) getting rid of me like this
Will: I don't know what you mean
Lara: (crying) he's put me out of his life again... he doesn't love Selena I know he doesn't... he's doing this to get back at me, and Selena still loves you I know she does
Will: Lara, clam down... look I hardly know you, but I can tell you're confused, leave them be
Lara: (crying) Will I have no where to go
Will: you can stay with me,
Lara: (crying) I can't
Will: why not
Lara: (calming down) but it won't be right
Will: Come on it will be fine
Lara: okay...
Will and Lara, go off to Will's place, however back in the Harper Household.
Selena: He said he still cared for me
Harry: I know... but I love you more
Selena: yeah
Tally: what was with Lara?
Harry: who knows, but I know it's about me and Selena... else she wouldn't have brought him back with her
Tally: was that really you're ex
Selena: yes...
Tally: no offence but he's ugly
Selena: he has power to make you want him, that's why I took him back so many times
Harry: but know you haven't
Selena: And I'm glad
Tally: what are you going to do about Lara?
Harry: depends
Tally: on what?
Harry: If she carries on like that, bringing Will about
Lara and Will arrived over at Will's place, Will lead the way into the building, a sense of eeriness, went over her, it was something about the house that made her feel it, was it because many woman had been here before hand.
Will: Hey what's up
Lara: This place
Will: what about it
Lara: I can't do this
Will: Do what
Lara: Stay here, I mean look around you
Will: at what
Lara: that picture
Will looks at the picture and shrugs
Lara: you can't let go can you... you're divorced and you keep out pictures like that and there, Ellen's belongings I believe
Will: and
Lara: Whatever... you're not right in the head
Will: excuse me I spent months in hospital with memory loss, trying to get back on track
Lara: I'm sorry I didn't know
Will: no you didn't
Lara: I'm going to go... I'll tell Harry I was wrong and all that
Will: Lara we make this work you know
Lara: what
Will: come I know why you came here
Lara: no, you've got it wrong... I don't want any of this, I done this to get back at Selena... she's taken a good friend away from me
Will: and I lost her, because I wasn't careful enough.. we've both had something bad happen to us
Lara: I know, but why did she go back to Harry
Will: because he cares... we both fought for her and he won
Lara: he loved me once... why hasn't he noticed me
Will: maybe he's gone off the blond type... (Twidderling with Lara's hair) but me I will always love the blondes
Lara: so it seems (using her hind to lift up his chin) if this is what you want then lets do it
Will: if it suits you then
Lara: if you like me, then yeah
The morning after Lara woke to much of her surprise next to Will, without hesitation she jumped out of the bed, and quickly got dressed, without him knowing, but walking into the living room, another surprise lay ahead it was Ellen.
Lara: who are you?
Ellen: more like who are you?
Lara: I'm Lara Stone
Ellen: Ellen Ziteck, Will's girlfriend
Lara: no you can't be he said you two had split up
Ellen: yeah split as in I was going away for a week to see my father in Ukraine.. he's just died
Lara: but Will
Ellen: you slut
Lara: I didn't do anything
Ellen: it doesn't look like it... what have you done to him, what have you done to Will
Lara: nothing
Ellen: you've just come out of our room
Lara: we just...
Ellen: No... Will, wouldn't do that to me
Lara: well he has
Ellen: he said he changed... he said he wouldn't do the dirty on me like he did with Selena
Lara: Men never change... we just had business, we both were hurt by Selena
Ellen: and I wasn't
Lara: Let's say we're in the same boat
Ellen: Get out... just get out
Just as Ellen said that Will came out of the bedroom.
Will: Ellen
Ellen: Will! (Hugging him but then backing away) what was she sleeping in our bed for?
Will: Ellen, Im sorry I had no idea, she came after me last night and literally forced me
Ellen: You poor thing (to Lara) I knew you were lying, you cheap blond bimbo
Lara: he's lying
Ellen: Just go
Will: Lara you should leave
Lara: I don't believe it maybe Selena was right
Two and a half months down the line Tally and Lara, had moved out, after making up and Lara ditching Will as he was back with Ellen. Harry and Selena had everything ready as it was only half a month until there baby was due to be born. Selena was upstairs resting, she hadn't been feeling to good that morning. Harry was in the living room, when he heard slight movement from upstairs
Selena: Harry...
Harry: (Rushing upstairs) Selena, you okay
Harry runs into the bedroom, in which he see's Selena leaning onto the dressing table
Selena: my waters have just broke... its early
Harry: Right... we're going to have to get you down maternity, let me just go and grab a few of your things
Selena: (nodding) yeah
Harry rummaged through her belongings and put them into a bag. Selena leant against the wall as she felt a contraction, she tried to breathe through the pain, like she was told to do so, but it was all a bit to much
Selena: Ha (wincing) Harry
Harry: (taking hold of her) it's all right... it's going to be okay
Selena: this is it then...
Harry: yeah..
Selena: Harry stay with me the whole time
Harry: I will, let's just get you in the car and down to Holby
Selena: (nodding) okay.. for hours of labour
Harry: (jokily) which that came out of a small bit of work, well a lot of it
Selena: Harry, I know that's true but this is no laughing matter, I do want to get into hospital, before I get another contraction which become closer!
Harry: Since you put it like that, Miss D
Selena smiled and walked in the aid of Harry to the car, which took a little while
Harry: no moaning, but this time, you definatly have to go in the back seats
Selena: whatever... just get me down there
Harry helps Selena into the backseats of the car, she had a firm grip on to Harry throughout, she dreaded the thought of just collapsing and loosing the baby at this stage.
Harry: now are you okay
Selena: At the moment (Short pause) I do love you... you know that
Harry: Selena, don't get all hormonal on me, of course I know you love me... and I love you
Selena slowly leans a little forward and kisses Harry on the cheek
Selena: who said I was hormonal... just ready for birth
Harry: (smiles) I know... right maternity here we come
Arriving in maternity, Selena had yet another contraction, making the gap every half hour, Selena had Harry at her aid, holding his hand tight and helping her walk the way through. Getting to the Maternity reception desk, Mickie was there, she could see something was up and rushed round
Mickie: Dr Harper... Dr Donavan
Harry: her waters broke and contractions so far every half hour
Mickie: Okay, right erm, lets get you into delivery room one
Selena: yeah... Harry can come can't he
Mickie: yes he can
Selena: good...
Mickie took Selena and Harry through to delivery room one,
Mickie: Right, we're going to get you ready, we'll monitor each contraction and so on right through to the birth... it's still a natural one isn't it
Selena: Mmm hum, no pain no game
Harry: always takes the hard route this one does
Mickie: Right, I'll leave you to sort things out, just give us a shout when things are getting worse
Selena: Right
Mickie exits leaving Harry and Selena,
Selena: this is it then, I'm going to become a mother
Harry: and as I've said, you'll be a perfect one
Selena: I hope so
Harry: hey don't worry about all this it will be fine, honestly, if anyone can take child birth it will be you
Selena: sure Harry, these contractions are worse than the pain I had with MRSA
Harry: well I won't be able to experience that so I will never know
Selena: but I'll give you the reflexes believe me, I have more of a grip than any woman you've been with
Harry: I know and you're the best woman too
Selena: (feeling another contraction) the Harper charm won't get you anywhere at a time like this
Harry: at least I try... hey (holding out his hand) I am here remember?
Selena: I know I just want this over
Harry: and end up with a beautiful son or daughter
A full 7 hours later...
Mickie: Well done Selena, you have a baby girl
Selena, still had firm grip of Harry's and they both looked at each, grasping a smile of happiness, but Selena could sense something wasn't right
Selena: Harry, she's not crying.. She's not dead is she, please?
Harry: (using his other hand to run through her hair) Sel... don't think that
At that response the baby started to cry, Selena began to cry with happiness, Harry watched upon Selena, happy inside seeing that she was happy too.
Mickie: (bringing over the baby) you can hold her if you like
Selena, received the baby gently, letting go of Harry's hand for the first time in hours, Harry's hand had large nail marks in them, purple in colour.
Selena: (tearful) Harry... she's beautiful
Harry: Takes after you then
Selena: she's got your nose... are little Theresa
Harry: and everything else like you
The small child began to make cute noises; Selena had already connected with her daughter
Selena: You're beautiful aren't ya... yes, you are, and you will be loved always
Selena kissed Theresa on the head before turning to Harry
Selena: Do you want to hold her
Harry: Yes,
Selena: You go to your daddy now (handing her over carefully) aww she likes you.. I don't see how anyone couldn't
Harry: well I know you do, and you're right she's just beautiful
Selena just smiled; at Harry she could see he was definatly the perfect father, Mickie walks over
Mickie: is everything okay
Selena: Yeah... I'm just a little tired
Mickie: Well you should be resting, and you're daughter should really be resting to, they do become very detested after being born
Harry: Shall, I put her in there
Mickie: yes... If you need me, I'll be about
Once Mickie had gone, this gave a slight chance for Harry and Selena to talk
Harry: (running his hand through her hair) you've done me proud
Selena: why...
Harry: you've just givin birth to the most beautiful child I've ever seen
Selena: you're just saying that
Harry: I'm not... you have so much about that I love and you've put that into our daughter
Selena: I love you Mr Harper
Harry: you don't need to keep telling me
Selena: but I want to, because if I don't I feel as if i'm not close to you... I know that's stupid, but telling you makes me feel better...
Harry: that's not stupid, if it makes you happy
Selena: it will make us last.. Knowing each others feelings
Harry: and I love you more than anything and I care to... so I think you should try and get some sleep
Selena: (nodding) okay... (little smile) don't go.. well you can, like go tell people and get something to eat or drink... but don't leave me for hours endlessly on my own
Harry: I wont be going anywhere, apart from making calls and that
Selena: Theresa... make sure she is okay
Harry: I can see the motherly side of you
Selena: well it has to, now are you going to let me rest or what
Harry: course I am darling
Selena: sweetheart, can I have a kiss. Before I try to sleep
Harry bends down to Selena's level and they kiss
Harry: Doctor D... rest now awaits you...
Selena: good, I just wish you could be there too
Harry: cheeky, you can wait for all that
Selena: yeah and that will be a long time
Harry: Sel stop being chatty and rest
Selena: sorry
A few hours later, Selena and baby were sleeping, Harry had returned from making is calls only half an hour earlier, but for now he was back by the side of the woman he loved, and their new life, he watched upon Selena as she slept peacefully, he had held of her hand, rubbing it gently not only for his own comfort.
A knock came to the door and it opened, Harry signalled for them to be quiet. It was Tally and Lara, they came in with a few balloons, cards and a little teddy bear, which was pink. Lara tried to look pleased and Tally had a beaming smile as the thought of having a half sister.
Tally: (Whispering) How are they?
Harry: fine...
Tally: Let's have a look at her
Harry: This is your half sister Theresa
Tally: aww so cute... I say she'll take after her mum
Harry: hopefully... Lara
Lara: what
Harry: You could at least say something
Lara: ... Cute baby
Tally: Lara, look at her, she is adorable
Lara: I know that... it's just... don't matter
Tally: How's Selena
Harry: Very tired, she's been asleep for 2 hours.. Deserves it though after the seven hours she's had
Tally: long time
Lara: well she did have a baby
Tally: state the obvious there
Harry was still over at Selena's side, he could see he was starting to stir, he looked down on her as she awoke, and when she did, she smiled.
Selena: I've just had the most amazing dream, and I've woke up and found it's true
Harry: aww... Tally and Lara are here
Selena: Okay... (Looking over) Hi
Tally: Hey, how are you
Selena: I'm okay now
Tally: Theresa is adorable
Selena: (smiles) Thanks
Lara: looks like a perfect child out of an unusual couple
Selena: well beautiful things come out of the extraordinary
Lara: like I said
Harry: can you stop the catty comments, Sel you should still be taking it easy
Selena: taking it easy, you've got to be joking I'm a mother now
Harry: I know
Tally: Ooo as you can see me and Lara brought these
Selena: you really didn't have to you know (seeing the teddy) aww that's sweet Theresa will love it
Tally: well she was a rush but after finding out she was a girl
Selena: sorry, we prefer the surprises don't we Hun
Harry: very much so
It was around this time baby Theresa started to make some movement and a little cry
Selena: Oohh erm (sitting up and about to pick the baby up) aww come here darling
Tally: we should go
Harry: If you want
Selena: (smiling at them) okay
As tally and Lara leave, the baby cries a bit more, Selena picks her up as gently as she could, Harry watched upon this
Selena: Hey. Shhh, your mam's her now (She began rocking her gently so the fragile body wasn't harmed) that's a good girl, my little petal
Harry: you're going to be really good at all this mum stuff
Selena: Thanks... I suppose I get off my mam or my twin sister, when I did the occasional looking after her son and daughter Oh did you call my family
Harry: Yeah, and they wished you well and said sorry they couldn't be here, but will come down as soon as they can
Selena: Good...you know this is just weird, I never thought I'd have my own child, I thought I was too old at 38
Harry: Hey as a 52 yr old, I didn't think I'd still be making them
Selena: you cheeky sod, you don't have to do much apart from apply the 'Harper Charm'.. I have well had nine months of hell
Harry: Well since you put it that way, I suppose we'll only have the one
Selena: Harry I didn't mean it like that, look at her this was down to us, more kids like this would do us a great deal
Harry: so it was worth nine months of hell
Selena: yes!
Soon enough, it was long before Harry and Selena had more visitors, this time it was Maggie. She knocked the door and then popped her head around, there she saw Harry sitting with Selena on the bed, holding the baby, both with a look of love and happiness between them, whilst talking about their daughter.
Maggie walked over to them after the signalled it was okay.
Harry: I'm going to grab a coffee and leave you two to chat
Selena: Harry, don't
Harry: you're not on your own; you've got Maggie to talk to
Selena: I know but
Maggie: you've got to let him go sometime
Selena: okay... you can go and get a coffee
Harry: right, I'll see you later
Selena: Yeah
Harry kisses Selena on the cheek before moving slowly off the bed, Selena just watches as he leaves. And then Maggie walks right over and looks at the baby
Maggie: aww she's so cute
Selena: Thanks
Maggie: so how are you both?
Selena: okay.. it's still a little shaky, you know I'm mother and it feels amazing, I've got a family now, well a family in the making everything is just perfect
Maggie: The baby has got you all hormonal
Selena: oh shut up, it's true I've got Harry... Theresa and I have a job to come back to in at least a year... it's everything I want
Maggie: well you certainty seem happy
Selena: well I am... I've got a stable relationship in which we both love each other, a beautiful little girl... I wouldn't have got any of this if I was still with Will, I'd probably become suicidal staying with him
Maggie: well you are in the relationship that we all knew would happen
Selena: Yeah, I heard about those conversations. Well you can be happy now its actually happened because I am
Maggie: and we are, its about time we had something happy going on in ED
Selena: how is everything down there?
Maggie: Does it matter... you've got a little bouncing baby, who is so sweet
Selena: leave it out, she's my daughter... mine and Harry's Theresa Harper
Maggie: sounds very
Selena: what?
Maggie: Its fine, it's just weird saying its 'Harper' I know even I'll be getting confused with two Dr Harper's around Ed
Selena: Er, he's Mr Harper; I'll be doctor Harper... when it happens
Maggie: and does he know that
Selena: yeah... I won't be surprised if this one becomes a doctor
Maggie: aww, looks like you're getting it all
Selena: I'm getting more than I want
Maggie: I should get off, Harry's outside and I'm about to start my shift so
Selena: Okay, thanks for coming
Maggie: no problem
Two weeks later Selena and Baby were at home, Harry had been called into ED after a serious RTA, and so this left Selena alone with her daughter, for the first time.
Theresa had been crying for a while and Selena was finding it hard to get her to be quiet. Selena had her daughter in her arms; she had already tried feeding her, winding her, changing her nappy, infact she tried everything she could think of and now she was really getting stressed with the fact.
Selena: (walking around with Theresa) Shhh Darling come on... please Theresa, calm down for you mam
But still she kept on crying, and Selena was getting more and more worked up about it by the second. Selena placed her daughter in the mosses basket and looked down on her almost crying herself as the baby wailed out.
Selena: shut up... JUST SHUT UP! I've tried everything, I've gave you everything why are you still crying (Realising what she had said and bursting into tears) Oh God... you're going to grow up hating me
But what was her shouting going to the do Theresa carried on screaming, Selena knew she couldn't take it anymore.
Selena: oh just go away
Selena ran out of the living-room and ran into the kitchen and sat herself down at the table in which her arms slide down on and allowed her to burry her face as she cried thinking 'how was I ever allowed to become a mother, why did Harry have to go in to work, was becoming a mother at a late age really a bad thing as it is reported to be- will it cause more heartbreak'. They were only some of the thoughts flying through her head as she cried. Selena thought she was all alone.
Harry however, had just cam in from his emergency call in to Ed, he entered the living room to hear his screaming child, he did wonder where Selena was but his main priority at that minuet was his daughter, putting down his jacket he picked up Theresa and rocked her gently for a few seconds and she soon quietened down.
Selena who was still in the kitchen, crying sighed
Selena: Thank you
Back in the living room, Harry had managed to get Theresa to sleep and he placed her softly in the mosses basket, in which she stayed asleep. Harry's thoughts were now on Selena, he noticed the kitchen door was closed, which normally it wasn't, so he thought that's where Selena must be. And it was
One entering the kitchen a red-eyed tear stained Selena looked up at him, it wasn't long before the pair had their first proper big argument, which was more than a shouting match
Selena: Don't... don't even think about saying anything
Harry: Selena, don't think the water works are going to work this time round
Selena: I haven't said or done anything
Harry: you left Theresa crying her eyes out in there on her own, what were you thinking... you can't do that Sel,
Selena: I know that, I'm not stupid
Harry: So why did you leave her in there, you're her mother
Selena: don't you think I know that too
Harry: well it doesn't look like it does it, so why did you leave her
Selena: she wouldn't shut up I tired everything she wouldn't stop crying
Harry: really? Well how come it didn't take me long to calm her down
Selena: I don't know
Harry: no, you don't do you
Selena: it would have been better if I lost Theresa
Harry: maybe it would have been
Selena: I can't believe you agree with me
Harry: well you're not a good mother if you crack and leave her because she cries, Theresa is a baby for goodness sake, of course she will cry, you've got to get round that
Selena: well you've had five kids already, you've had all the experience, I haven't ... you should be helping me
Harry: I have to work
Selena: and so do I... but I can't... I can't even look after my own child; you don't think I'm capable so why don't you have her, keep her I know she wouldn't want a incapable mother
Harry: Fine I will, at least I'll take care of her
Selena: Okay... I take it as this means it's over then
Harry: what's over?
Selena: oh come on Harry don't deny it, I can see you want to say it...
Harry: Oh our relationship
Selena: Yes
Harry: If that's what you think then go ahead, walk out of here, it is over then
Selena: I will (about to storm off) I thought you were different, I thought you loved me
Harry: and I thought you would make a great mother
Selena just looks at Harry before walking off slamming the kitchen door, in which it wakes Theresa up, but Selena didn't seem to care she just went straight upstairs into the bedroom.
Harry slammed his hand down on the table and collected his thoughts, before yet again going to stop his daughter from crying. Going back into the livin her picked her up and yet again rocked her gently
Harry: Its alright, mummy's just angry, but I'm going to take care of you
Harry gave his daughter her dummy and soon got her off to sleep
Harry: (stoking her head) that's my girl... now you stay asleep and I'll sort your mum out.
Harry put Theresa down, covered her with the blankets, and placed on of the small teddies beside her, she looked so peaceful and harmless, and why would anyone get angry at a child so beautiful.
Selena was still in the bedroom, she had all her clothes from the wardrobe across the bed and an open suitcase, and she was still in tears, the theories where right, having a baby in late thirties caused heartbreak and problems. As Selena began packing stuff into the case through the tears, Harry entered the bedroom
Harry: Selena... I need to understand
Selena: what is there to know, you've made it pretty clear what you think
Harry: just tell me
Selena: I can't cope Harry, I'm the one doing all the work here I'm the one getting up in the night and then I do the majority of looking after her while you're at work or something... I'm tired, I want to sleep.. I need to be getting out working or something; I can't do this 24/7.. Now do you understand, I'm not cut out to be a mam.. Like you said, so there you go, there's my answer... I don't get YOUR help
Harry: Sel, why didn't you say anything
Selena: because you should know these things... if you know and love me you would have picked up on these things, but what does it matter now, its finished we're through
Harry: I didn't meant that
Selena: How can I believe you Harry, you meant it I know you did
Harry: Did you
Selena: no... but it feels like it is this past few weeks we we've hardly spoke.. That's what makes it feel like it's over
Harry: I didn't mean it either, I've been thinking the same; its just things are coming between us, our relationship
Selena: you mean me with Theresa
Harry: no... Look babies always affect relationships, the cut out everything that was once there, but that will go away if we work on it
Selena: I still love you Harry, but you've got to help me here
Harry: I will and I will never stop loving you Selena
Harry then goes and sits next to Selena, and kisses her on the hand, Selena went weak, and her response was just to wrap her arms around him
Harry: so are we okay
Selena: yeah...
Harry: why don't you go take a rest in the spare room, I'll tidy this up and then look after Theresa
Selena: thanks
Harry: it's the least I can do... now go on
Selena just smiles and kisses him on the cheek and goes off to a spare room to get some rest
