lol fuck computers man. I had this chapter and Stolen Innocence all typed up and my computer died, causing me to also lose two other one-shots I had been working on. So here is the super-fucking-late chapter to My Little Girl

Oh, I'm also switching up POVs. Nothing big just going from Eli to Clurr later on in le chapter

Enjoy! Or not, you know, whatever floats your boat

3 months. 3 long torturous months without my little girl. Not being able to hear her child like laugh, peppy tone, and soft caring voice. Every part of my body is breaking without her, I'd never expected this would happen because of me. I pushed my only daughter far away from me because my selfish behavior. I mean sure I'm still not too thrilled with the fact that Becca is pregnant, but do I truly have any real reason to be upset? She's married, has a stable job—as well as Daniel. They're ready; it's just me who isn't. My feelings shouldn't affect them in any way through her pregnancy and raising my grandson or granddaughter.

Luckily through all of this Becca has kept steady contact with Clare, which I'm very grateful for. Thankfully Clare forgave me for what I had done, but she didn't let me live it down. After every meet up, doctor's appointment, and phone call Clare would tell me about it. I made sure she didn't leave out a bit of information about Becca or the baby; I wanted to be kept up to date on everything.

I reached forward and took a sip of my, now cold, coffee. I looked up at the clock, seeing it slowly tick. Clare had left a few hours ago to meet up with the oh-so-happy couple at Becca's doctor appointment.

"Where are you Clare" I whispered to myself as I grabbed my coffee mug, moving it in a circular motion, watching the old coffee mix around with the sugar that sunk down to the bottom. I quickly lifted my head up, placing my coffee back on the kitchen table to the sound of the door opening.

"Hey there" Clare said as she smiled, skipping towards me placing a kiss on my cheek. I smirked wrapping my arms around her waist, resting my head against her. I looked up into her blue orbs as she smiled down at me.

"So how did the appointment go?" I asked as she bit her lip digging into her purse. After a few minutes she pulled out a small Ziploc bag, waving it in front of my face. I pushed myself away from her, grabbing the small see through back, noticing a black background with some white and grey specks to it. Her ultrasound picture. I immediately opened the of course using great care, not harm the picture. I gently reached inside and pulled out the small photo. I smiled as I gently traced the outline of the babies face. There wasn't much to see, but it was enough for me. I could see a small little hand, two legs, and a big head. This baby was beautiful already, just like its mom and grandma.

I looked up at Clare for a brief moment as she took a seat next to me, resting her arms on the table. I shifted my gaze back to the photo as I smirked at my soon-to-be grandson or granddaughter.

"Aw, I think someone's in love." I heard Clare say as she nudged my arm. I looked up at her and smirked, still trying to keep a serious face.

"So what did Dr. what's-his-face say?" Clare's mentioned his name to me a million times and I still couldn't remember it.

"Well, Dr. Amard said the babies doing great. Its growing, most likely weighs around 1.4 pounds and even has eye lashes."

"Anything else?"

"Let me see.." Clare said thinking back. "He did a urine test, making sure Becca was alright and also an ultrasound, which is kind of obvious." Clare said laughing slightly, as she took the photo from my hand staring at it.

"I can't wait to meet you." she cooed at the picture. I rolled my eyes playfully, taking the photo back wanting to keep it near me.

"So what's the sex of the baby?" I rushed out, eager to know. I was praying it wouldn't be a little boy, knowing he would most likely be a mini Daniel. I did not want one of those.

"Becca and Daniel want it to be a surprise." Clare said with a hint of sadness to her voice. I crossed my arms and fell back against my chair.

"Why the hell would they do that. She's got what like..2 or 3 months left. " Clare shrugged.

"It's there decision not yours Eli." Clare said in a somewhat cold tone. I looked up at her and sighed, knowing I have to calm down. I can't keep jumping in trying to change my daughter's life choices because I don't agree with them.

I rubbed my face with both my hands, standing up from seat and walking over to Clare. I wrapped my arms around her small shoulders from behind and stuffed my face into her neck.

"I'm sorry babe. I'm trying to change. I can't be this terrible overbearing parent all the time." I whispered as I felt her shiver beneath me. I felt a soft hand reach into my hair as Clare turned her head to the side.

"You're not a terrible parent nor are you overbearing, you just care too much. You've always been like this Eli, you just need to learn how to control it." she said as she turned around enough, so she could plant a small kiss on my lips.

"You always know what to say." I whispered against her soft pink lips. She cupped my cheeks and rested her forehead against mine.

"Everything's going to be okay." She whispered slowly to me, with her eyes closed. I kissed her nose, trailing kisses down to her neck. A soft moan escaped her lips as sucked on her pulse point. Clare wrapped her arms around my neck as I reached behind her placing my arms around her back and under her legs picking her up bridal style. Clare began to unbutton my shirt as best she could then placing feather light kisses on my collar bone. I walked upstairs and into our bedroom, gently laying Clare on the bed, ready to forget everything.

Clare's POV

"Mom, how does this look?" Becca said as she laid a small green onesie on her growing belly. I smiled at her while laughing a little.

"It looks great baby girl." I said as I continued to search through the racks, of discount baby clothes. We had been here for the last half hour just trying to find some nice things, for the baby when he or she arrives. This was the first time Becca has even thought about any of this and she was more than excited to get started. I looked over at her, biting my lip nervously thinking up a way on how to bring Eli into this. She hadn't really talked much about him since the fight. From past experience with Becca, I knew she was suppressing her feelings, which isn't good for her or the baby.

"I-uh, showed daddy the ultrasound picture of the baby." I said nervously waiting for her reaction. She lifted her head up and smiled a bit, placing her hands protectively on her belly, rubbing smoothing circles.

"What did he say?"

"Not much, but he loved it, he made a copy of it and put it in his wallet. I caught him this morning staring at it. I can see it in his eyes, he's truly excited for this baby." Becca looked around the store, obviously avoiding eye contact with me. Her expression was unreadable, I couldn't tell if she was upset or happy.

I watched as she nibbled on her lip, still staring blankly around the small store. "Do you think he really is? You're not making this up are you?" she said as she looked over at me waiting for an answer.

"I'm not lying Becca. He's truly happy. I wouldn't make this up." I said in a calm voice as I walked towards her, wrapping her arm around her.

"He even asked about the sex of the baby, how it was doing, and even wants to know on how you're doing." A little smirk formed on my daughter's angelic face. Her body seemed to relax at my words. I moved my arm from around her and as I grabbed her hand gently pulling her towards the bottle section. Becca smiled up at me, oh it's been so long since I've seen her smile like that.

"So daddy doesn't hate me?"

"How could he hate you Becca? You're his little girl."

Reviews please?

No?

Okay

Question that I seriously need help with: What should the sex of the baby be?
