Chapter number 4. Welcome home.

"Well this is your new home" Jack said as he carried Martha's bags through the front door and into his room. He put the bags inside the door then turned around and picked Martha up in his arms, taking her into his room and closing the door behind him. He placed her on the bed and knelled over her, lowering his head to plant a kiss on her lips.

"I can't believe there's a baby in here" Jack said placing his hands on Martha's stomach.

"Yeah, I can't ether" Martha replied. Jack then went in for another kiss but got interrupted by the door opening. Martha and Jack both looked up to see who it was.

"Jack-"Lucas started "Oh, um, never mind" he added when he saw Martha there too.

"Some things never change around here do they" Martha commented when Lucas had walked away. She sighed, just like last time he had left the door open.

There was lots of conversation at the dinner table that night, Jack was telling them all about the guy he arrested that morning and Lucas told them about how scared Maddie was when they saw a snake while they were going for a walk in the bush.

"Babe you gonna finish eating that?" Jack asked when he saw that Martha had pushed her plate aside.

"No, I'm full" Martha replied shaking her head.

"Come on you've go to eat more than that".

"Jack, I'm eating for two not a whole army" Martha told him, Jack had dished up her dinner for her and it had been a lot more than her pregnant belly could handle.

"Your what?" Lucas said with a confused look on his face.

"Oh, I thought Jack would of told you, anyway I'm pregnant" Martha told him.

Lucas paused for a moment "I think I'm gonna lose my dinner".

"Lucas, be nice" Jack said sternly.

"Well, congratulations then" he said before leaving the table and heading off to his room.

"So how do you think he took that?" Martha asked.

"He'll get used to the idea, no use stressing over it" Tony said calmly.

The next few months weren't the happiest for everyone, Alf wasn't talking to Martha or Jack very often and when he did it usually ended up in an argument, Jack was getting more and more concerned about all the stress that was piling up on Martha, he didn't know how she was still managing to hold herself together, but then again she was a very strong girl.

"Why can't you just except that I've made my decision" Martha yelled at her grandfather, this wasn't the fist time she had done this in the last few months.

"Because your making one of the biggest mistakes of your life and I'm not just going to sit and watch that happen" he yelled back at her.

"Well don't watch then, and If your not going to be any help then why don't you just go to hell" Martha screamed storming out the door.

Alf couldn't take it anymore, he began to lose his balance and then he collapsed on the floor.

Next time:

Will Alf be ok?

Can Martha handle the stress any longer?

Can the baby handle the stress?
