Darren looked down at his gorgeous new wife of 2 weeks, she was still asleep. They had to go to the doctor that afternoon for her 12 week check up, he could hardly believe what had happened in those 12 weeks.
Three weeks after his divorce had come through from Cindi, he, Louise, Jack, Katie and both of their parents and Louise's siblings had all flown out to Miami and they got married on the beach. All three of them had moved into the old farmhouse.
"What the hell are you looking at? I told you to stop watching me sleep it gives me the creeps"
"Well good morning to you two," said Darren.
"Yeah well… it's creepy," grumbled Louise sitting up.
"No sweetie, it's supposed to be a slushy moment," said Darren pulling Louise into him, "you see you are supposed to wake up and enquire into what I was watching in a dream like tone. Then I'm supposed to answer, 'a flawless gift from god', you then are supposed to giggle and then we'll spend the morning making sweet love…"
"When have I ever spoken to you in a dream like tone and giggled?"
"Never but this is cliché wake up routine of normal newlyweds"
"Yes, because our relationship has been so cliché so far," said Louise as she slipped on a dressing gown, and then as if right on queue.
"Daddy, Louise," they heard Jack shout, "Can I come in?"
"Yes, come in," Louise shouted.
"Is it breakfast time yet, cause Daddy you promised us breakfast in bed this morning," said Jack in a matter of fact voice, coming into the bedroom.
"Did I?" said Darren.
"Yes you did, now go. We are going to watch cartoons until you bring us our breakfast," said Louise unceremoniously kicking him out of bed.
"Yayyy and Daddy no cereal we want proper cooked breakfast," said Jack.
"I'm being ordered about by a woman and a 4 year old, what is the world coming to?" said Darren.
"Hey watch it, or we'll beat you up and you know we can do it," laughed Louise.
----------------------------
HALF AN HOUR LATER
"Wow Daddy that was yummy," said Jack who had just finished his third pancake.
"Mmmmm it was, where did you learn to make pancakes?" said Louise who had just eaten a full plate of them.
"From around," said Darren mysteriously, "So do either of you want anything else?"
"No I'm full," said Jack.
"Me too," said Louise.
"What about the little one?" whispered Darren resting a hand on Louise's stomach.
"Oh he's full as well," she whispered back.
"He?"
"Yup I definitely think it's a boy"
"How about we tell…." said Darren.
"Hey Jack can we talk to you for a minute?" said Louise.
"Okay," said Jack crawling up to the top of the bed and positioning himself between the two of them.
"Well you know how when people are married…" started Darren
"Like you and Mummy were?"
"Yeah and you know how me and Louise are married now?"
"Uh huh"
"And married people have babies?"
"Uh huh and I have a brother Zack" (Cindi had called her and Bo's baby Zack)
"Yeah, and he's Mummy's baby but…."
"But not Daddy's" finished Jack.
"Uh huh, well how would you feel about another baby in the family?"
"Mummy's having another baby?"
"No, not Mummy, Louise is having a baby"
"A baby and it's your baby?" said Jack
"Yes, your brother or sister"
"And yours?" said Jack pointing to Louise.
"Yes"
"Oh okay," said Jack then he crawled off the bed and ran out of the room.
"What was that?" said Darren getting up.
"I'll go and see him," said Louise.
"No I should…"
"No I think it would be best if I did"
Louise went downstairs, and found Jack in the back yard in his tree house crying.
"Hey, why are you crying? Aren't you excited?" said Louise crawling into the tree house and sitting next to Jack.
"Can I live out here?" said Jack in a scared little voice.
"Here in the tree house?"
"Uh huh please"
"No it's dangerous," said Louise automatically without thinking.
"B-but I want to stay here, I don't want to live with strangers…." Said Jack crying again.
"Hey what? Why would you live with strangers?" said Louise picking Jack up and putting him in her lap.
"T-that's what mummy said would happen. Because you'll have a baby of your own and you and Daddy won't want me. And you made Daddy say I couldn't stay with Mummy so I have to live with strangers, but I don't want to I want to stay here?"
"Hey that's never going to happen, okay ever. You're staying here in the house with me and Daddy like it is right now, the only difference will be that soon there will be a baby for you to play with. But you're not going away, we love you both of us and that's never going to change, okay?"
"Promise"
"I promise"
"Double promise"
"I double promise, I a thousand times promise," said Louise as she tickled Jack.
"Ahhh stop it, please," giggled Jack.
"Okay, okay. Feel better?" said Louise.
"So I'm staying here, with you and Daddy and the baby?"
"Yes"
"But when Mummy had Zack, me and Daddy left. Will that happen again?"
"No, I promise it won't. You are both going to stay here with me and the baby"
"And live with the baby"
"Yes"
"Yayyy"
"Okay now go and see your Daddy he was worried, he thinks you don't want a little brother or sister"
"Okay, but why would Mummy say that?"
"I think she was just confused," said Louise then she muttered under her breath, "or maybe she's just a spiteful bitch"
------------------------------
"You have to sort her out, or I swear I will. What sort of person tells their child they'll be sent away," raged Louise later that day once they had dropped Jack off at nursery.
"I will okay, just calm down. We're going to the doctors we don't need your blood pressure to be sky high"
"Calm down, he asked to live in the treehouse"
"Well it's a very nice tree house, the curtains make it a little feminine"
"They're blue," said Louise.
"I'm just saying, curtains in a little boys tree house isn't normal"
"I am not discussing this with you again, Jack loves the curtains, in fact I was thinking about painting the inside walls blue as well"
"Are you trying to turn him queer?"
"He likes blue"
"No he needs to play with soldiers and guns and boy toys, you've spoiled him"
"Step mother's perogative to spoil the children," said Louise, "anyway we were talking about your bitch ex wife"
"I know I'll talk to her. But she was pretty mad about the wedding, god knows how she'll take the news about the baby"
"Are you defending her?"
"No, I'm just saying is all"
"Well keep it up and I'll make sure it's only possible for you to have two children ever and…"
"Are you threatening my manhood?"
"It's not a threat dear, it's a promise,"
