Epilogue
The gentle summer breeze brushed over her as she sat against the tree watching the young teenager sprint around the back yard. A two year old toddler stumbled behind whilst squealing loudly.
She couldn't help but laugh out loud at the antics before two sets of eyes turned to her, one green one brown.
"Mommy" the toddle managed to waddle over to her on his plump legs his chestnut brown hair sticking up at all ends while a tinkle settled into his eyes as he stumbled towards the end of his walk. Darting forward she scooped the boy up and planted a large kiss against his head making the boy giggle.
"Mommy" he squealed causing her to laugh before placing him beside her "just like your daddy" she stated before she bit her lip and tears glistened across her eyes. The young teenager placed her self beside her and sighed.
"Sara" Lotte questioned flicking her hair out of her face bringing Sara back to her giving her a small smile "it's ok… really, it's just… everything that happened, everyone we both lost" Sara bit back the sob threatening to escape. Lotte gave her a reassuring smile then threw her arms around Sara's neck.
"you don't forget… you learn to live with them being apart of you, remember who told me that" Lotte questioned drawing back to allow Sara to brush away the tears "of course I do, it was me… but still it hurts sometimes, remembering the life we could have had" Sara stated loudly before more tears rushed down her face and shook her head.
Neither noticing the back yard door sliding open and a tall figure stepping out side "oh my god" a voice drawled before the little boy beside Sara squealed and clapped "Sara you are the most hormonal pregnant woman I know" Greg declared as he strolled over to them.
Sara swiped the last shreds of tears away from her eyes and managed to glare quiet heartily at her husband.
"Well whose fault is that? You have a problem Sanders, it's called not being able to keep something in his pant" Sara snapped causing Greg's jaw to hang down whilst he bent down to collect his son. Lotte simply laughed out loud and grinned at Greg "that was a record Greg, she went from sobbing to mad in less then three seconds flat" Lotte declared causing Greg to grin back but a sharp look from Sara causing to sink back.
"I don't know why your finding this funny GREG, it's your fault I'm like this… I'm fat, swollen, nauseous, need to pee, heart burn, moody and hungry. You and your damn seed that you insisted on sowing" Sara snarled causing Greg to gulp before flashing a look to Lotte who rolled her eyes and stood, she walked around Sara and took the toddler from his father "how about me and you go find Sid hey George, sound like a good idea" Lotte questioned before she left the eight and half month pregnant woman and her poor husband.
Greg managed to sit beside Sara with out being bitten then flashed her a mega watt smile that never seemed to fail. And when the sigh escaped Sara's lips and she lent against Greg he knew it still worked.
"I'm sorry, I was just watching Lotte and George run around having fun and it hit me that Georgian never got a chance to see her daughter grow up… Lotte should have had a normal life… instead she witnessed both her mother being murdered and her father being killed in self defence… though I know she admitted that for a moment she thought it was you…" Sara trailed off and blinked back the tears causing Greg to snake a arm around his wife and snuggle her head against his shoulder "I don't think either of us were ready to lose you" Sara admitted as Greg chuckled and rubbed a hand soothingly against her arm "believe me that's one thing I will never allow to happen… I will never leave your side and when this baby is born she will have a daddy that would kill anyone trying to hurt her" Greg stated as Sara sniffled against.
Greg enjoyed the silence feeling Sara breath against him, she shifted now and then but soon Greg thought she was asleep until she sought his hand "Greg" she questioned as Greg allowed his eye lids to drop shut "yes baby" he said before kissing the top of his head "well BABY… your going to have to get me up now" Sara stated matter of factly but Greg simply grinned "why, I'm comfortable here and I thought you was" Greg stated as Sara held his hand tightly "I was… until my waters broke" Sara declared squeezing his hand. Greg simply nodded before mumbling "that's nice" he stated dreamily until the words hit him and his eyes shot open and straight to his wife "WHAT NOW… THE BABY" Greg bellowed before jumping to his feet and racing towards the house. Sara rested a hand against her stomach watching the fleeting back of her husband with a small smile across her lips before he raced back with panic spread across his face "I'M SORRY" he yelled before helping his wife to her feet he darted back and forth collecting her bags then telling Lotte and informing her to call Catherine.
Sara simply watched with a smile as her husband Greg Sanders raced back and forth. He was taking charge.
And for now Sara Sanders was going to all him to think he truly was.
