Lucy's POV

Boy this baby is using my bladder as a toy! I've been to the toilet 7 times in the past, what 15 mintues.


Lauren's POV

Boxing Day morning came quick, Pete got around 4 hours sleep before Clive drove him to the hospital.


Peter's POV

I sat his beside, I couldn't tell it was him. His light brown hair, gone almost a white soft blonde. His small black eyes, turned a pastle blue, his body as thin as broom. It was killing me that my brother was dying by the second.


Lucy's POV

I know I'm 8 months into my pregnancy, but I just can't wait to get this baby out.


Lauren's POV

I was starting to get increasingly conserned for Pete, it wasnt right that he was getting adleast 4 hours sleep. Once Steven goes I just hope he's going to be okay.


Peter's POV

Steve fell asleep, it gave me time to put the presents in my bag. I sat with my in my hand, I opened it quietly.

A picture frame with me, him, Lucy and Cindy the picture we'd taken on our last day in Devon.

He'd planed this out carefully.


Lucy's POV

I sat on the sofa. My contractions were driving me mental.

Can't this baby come any sooner.


Lauren's POV

I looked out of the window, in our bedroom. I waited for him to come, I knew it wasnt going to be this mintue but I just had to.


Peter's POV

"Hey" I said, softly. "How ya feeling?"

Steve woke with a groan. "Never felt better"

I smiled. "Sorry stupid question"

"Have you put them-"

"Don't worry, I've put them in my bag"


Lucy's POV

"Laurrrreeenn!" I shouted.

She came bounding down the stairs.

"Luce?"

"The baby, it's coming"

Lauren sighed in panic, she got up and returned a couple of seconds later with Clive.

Clive picked me up and carried me to the car.


Lauren's POV

I stayed at home with Forest and Cindy.

"Do you think Steven's going to be alright?" Cindy aked.

"I couldnt tell you anything" I admitted.


Peter's POV

I looked over to the clock, 21.35

I looked down at Steven.

Then at the moniter.

Long lines appered.

He'd gone.

"Not yet Steve. Please not now" I sobbed.


Lucy's POV

I held my son in my arms, so small.


Lauren's POV

I recived a text from Pete.

Steve died at 21.35 tonight. I know Luce's in hospital, I'm on my way Love you xx

I wiped a tear from my eye.

"Cindy!" I shouted.


Peter's POV

I walked into Luce's room.

"What took you so long? What's wrong?" She noticed I'd been crying.

I walked over to her, she held her son in her arms, I sat on the side of the bed.

"Luce?"

"Yeah?"

I touched her hand.

"Steve died at 9.35 tonight" I told.

Luce looked up at me then at her son.

"Steven. Steven Beale" She whispered.

I wiped a tear from my eye and kissed my nephew on the head.
