And Their Resulting Actions
"But he was looking at her, yeah all funny in the eye.
She said "come on boy tell me what your thinking,
Now don't be shy."
He said alright, "I'll try.
All the stars up in the sky and the leaves in the trees,
All the broken bits that make you jump up and grassy bits in between.
All the matter in the world is how much I like you."

…coughs and the scotch he was drinking spurts out his mouth across the table at my face as he realises what I said.
"We're…" he trails of flinging a finger between the two of us.
I nod.
"You're.." this time the finger is point at my face, then my stomach.
I nod.
"So I'm.."
Sick of the half formed sentences I butt in.
"We're having a baby. I'm Pregnant. You're going to be a dad."
"A daddy… I'm gonna be a daddy. We're.. we're a family."
"Whoa. Slow down. Time remember." He stops his incoherent rambling and glances at me.
"How long?"
"5 weeks."
"We have under 8 months to get ready."
"Calm down Derek." I smile.
He comes to my side of the table and hugs me. Sitting on the love seat I smile. Marvelling at how perfect the moment feels.
Later we lie down in his bed and he curls up behind me whispering in my ear. "I love you." Before placing his hand on my belly. "And our McBaby." I got to sleep with a soft smile on my face. At peace.
"L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore
Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart but please don't break it
'Cause love was made for me and you
I said love was made for me and you
You know that love was made for me and you"
