Chapter Ten:
Over the next few days, Frank started to make his plan. He was certain he'd make sure Carla would not have Peter's child. Deep down, somewhere inside him behind all the evilness he still loved Carla and it killed him knowing she was carrying Peter's baby.
Peter and Carla were going to their scan. They went to say they had arrived at reception and then sat down to wait. Simon was at school so missed it but they'd promised him he would be able to come to the next scan.
"You okay?" Peter asked, seeing Carla nervously move her leg up and down.
She nodded.
"Yeah, just a bit nervous." She replied, as they were called through.
Carla lifted her top up and the nurse put the gel on her tummy.
"Ooh, its cold" she said.
Peter laughed.
"Of course it's cold." He said.
He held her hand through the whole scan and they were told their baby was fine.
Carla sighed a sigh of relief. She couldn't imagine what she'd do if something happened to her little baby.
"Are we going to find out what we're having?" Peter asked, on their way out of the hospital.
"I don't mind to be honest." Carla replied.
"Oh well, we can think about it." Peter said.
"What would Simon want?" Carla asked.
"I'm not sure. You'd never know with that one what he'd want." Peter laughed, kissing Carla.
"You know something?" he said.
"What?"
"You know how proud I am of you? With everything that's happened these past few months and you never let it grind you down." Peter said.
Carla smiled, taking his hand.
"And how much I love you, Simon and our little baby." He said.
"I know and I love you all just as much too." Carla replied, snuggling into Peter and they walked hand in hand to the school to pick Simon up.
