"You do something to me, something deep inside. I'm hanging on the wire for a love I'll never find, you do something wonderful then chase it all away" were the words coming from the stereo in the kitchen, Louise was in the bedroom getting ready. It was Friday night and the night of their engagement party and most importantly the night they told everyone she was pregnant. Louise was sat on the bed applying the finishing touches to her make-up and in walked Nick looking for his tie rather frustratingly, "you seen my tie Lou?" he asked whilst looking round "it's here" she replied picking it up off the bedside table and passing him it. Nick put it on while Louise put her make up away, "you ready" Nick asked "yes" she replied standing up, walking out of the bedroom she said "Nick" "yeah" "come here" she replied placing her hand on his arm turning him around to face her "what's up?" he asked "your tie isn't straight, come here". She straightened it, placed her hands on his chest and said "perfect" looking into one another's eyes Nick placed his thumb on her chin and said "you are" and kissed her gently "now come on you soppy beggar or we'll be late" she replied taking his hand, leading him to the door and down to the car.

Soon enough they arrived and as they did Charlie and Tess were just getting out of his car "hey guys, glad you could make it" Louise said kissing them both Nick walked ahead with Charlie and Tess said "so is tonight the night?" giving her a look. Louise replied in a hushed voice "yes" and they both smiled and walked inside following Nick and Charlie. Once inside Charlie tried to buy Louise an alcoholic drink but she gave the excuse that she was driving to not drink. The room looked lovely simple with a few banners and balloons but lovely and they had booked a DJ but it was going to be quiet and sophisticated as Nick didn't do loud music, they said hello to the few people who were there then sat down and waited for the arrival of the others. In no time everyone was there having a great time and it soon became time for Nick to make a speech, he stood up on the little stage in the corner and said "first off I would just like to thank all of you for coming and celebrating our engagement with us, I know a lot of you never thought I'd settle down well neither did I until I met Louise, we've set a date October 20th and we'd be very happy if you all could join us, so once again thanks for coming and have a nice night" everyone clapped and just as they started to turn around to carry on with what they were doing, Nick said "oh one more thing" placing his hand out to Louise to join him "2 months before we get married there's something else happening which is a pretty big thing, that's going to change everything" A few people looked confused. Placing his hand on Louise's belly he said "were expecting our first child" they both smiled and every one clapped.

Later on Louise was talking to Linda and Tess, she pressed her top against her belly to show them how big her bump was and they couldn't believe she'd be able to hide it, they had a real girly chat while Nick was off somewhere probably talking work with someone. She told them how she pretty much got pregnant straight away and how Nick proposed after seeing the scan, then went on to say "I know we hadn't been together long but neither of us had any doubt about keeping it" both Linda and Tess nodded and smiled, they carried on talking baby talk like women do best. Nick was stood at the bar and up walked Zoe "hey" she said, "oh hey Zo can I get you a drink" he replied, she said "yeah usual please, so I guess congratulations is in order" he looked at her and said "look Zoe I was going to tell you" "no honestly it doesn't matter, I'm happy for you" she replied, he gave her a look "seriously I am why wouldn't I be" she said. He took hold of her hand gave it a squeeze and gave her a kiss on the cheek and said "thank you". Nick walked off with 2 drinks in his hands, Zoe watched as he walked over to Louise placed a drink in her hand and kissed her. Zoe and Nick were best of friends even after all they'd been through he was the love of her life and as much as it still hurt her that she could never of given him a child she was happy for him, he was finally getting what he wanted and he deserved, a loving wife and a child. A song came on called lady in red and Louise dragged him into the middle of the floor and made him dance with her, with her arms around his neck and his around her waist they swayed slowly from side to side, he gently kissed her on the forehead, they acted as if no one was watching because most of the others were dancing so Nick gave her a kiss and moved his hand up from her waist and stroked her face. He pulled back from the kiss and sang along to the song "I'll never forget the way you tonight" and leant back in to kiss her passionately but gently.

It started to get late and people were starting to leave and by 12:30am Nick and Louise were ready to be off, Zoe, Jay, Lenny and a few other people were still there so Nick and Louise said goodnight, Nick went up to the bartender gave him £50 and said "anything they want it's on me" and left, they got back home and went straight to bed Nick cuddled into Louise and placed his hand on her baby bump as he was drifting off he was unknowingly humming lady in red into Louise's ear she didn't mind it helped her nod off within minutes they'd both nodded off into the land where anything was possible but right now that was the real world.
