"oh my god" Clarisse gasped putting her hands up to her face as Pierre rushed over and Shades appeared
"what happened?" Shades asked as he helped Pierre carry him over to the couch
"we um.." Clarisse started as she stood up and grabbed the smelling salts from the cupboard behind her "we was talking and he came in"
"and he fainted" Pierre carried on looking at Clarisse as she nodded and sat on the edge of the couch next to Joe
"alright" Shades said looking at Clarisse then back at Pierre
"its alright we have it from here" Pierre nodded "thanks for your help" he added as he ushered him out the office then rushed back over to the couch as Joe started coming round
he put his hand up to his head "what happened" he opened his eyes and looked at Clarisse "tell me honestly" Clarisse nodded "did I hear what I thought I heard?"
"I will leave you to it" Pierre said as they both looked at him
"thank you" Clarisse said watching him walk out then she placed the smelling salts on the coffee table next to her as Joe sat up
"Clarisse?" he said rubbing the back of his head
she nodded putting her hands together "you did" she said turning her head a little and looked at him while resting her hands on her knees
"when will you know?" he asked watching her
"my Doctor is going to try and get the results for me today" she said looking at him "there is something else?"
"what?" he asked
"Rupert didn't sign the divorce papers, so I am a widow" she said looking back at her hands
"he what?" he shook his head "that man makes me so angry" he whispered and looked at her "hey, it will be ok you no" she looked at him "you have me"
"thank you" she nodded "and I am glad I do" she answered as he rubbed her back "it just makes me so angry, he agreed to the divorce then he didn't sign the papers" she said looking back at her hands
"hey come on?" she looked back at him "it will all be ok, I promise" he sat up and kissed her "do you want to lay with me a while?" he asked
"yea" she nodded and stood up, slipping of her shoes and climbed over him laying between him and the back of the couch as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder "I love you" she whispered as she rested her head on his chest
"I love you too" he whispered back "can I ask you something?" she nodded "what gave you the idea that you might be pregnant?"
she looked at him "some little things that normally happens, and Amelia she kept patting my tummy and kissing it"
"oh" he said "ok" Clarisse chuckled and rested her head back on his chest
They laid in silence for a little while then Clarisse tipped her head back and looked at Joe
"what?" he asked with a smile
"I have been thinking and wondered if you wanted to move officially into my suite with me?" she asked
"really?" he asked surprised as she nodded "are you sure? I mean as you said before you have never fully shared a room with anyone other than your sister" he chuckled
"I know, but you stay there most nights and have stuff everywhere" she smiled at him "if you want to that is"
"I would love to" he smiled and kissed her
"good" she smiled as he held her close "I thought it was about time it happened" she grinned then looked at him "what are we going to do if I am pregnant?"
he thought a second "let's not say anything just in case" he said looking at her
"your right" she nodded and rested her head back down "thank you" she whispered
"what for?" he asked looking at her
"everything" she whispered as he smiled a little and kissed her, then she rested her head back on his chest
"whatever happens from today, I will be right beside you" he whispered "I promise you that" he said rubbing her back
"thank you" she whispered
After a little while they went for a walk around the gardens, coming back into the hall holding hands.
"well" Pierre smiled at them as she quickly pulled her hand from him "Mom?"
"sorry I thought you was a guard" she answered as Joe laughed stood next to her
"Mom you are forgetting everyone knows" Pierre smirked "anyway did you have a nice walk?"
"yes we did actually" Clarisse answered and looked at Charlotte as she came into the hall
"Your Majesty, you have a call on line 1" Charlotte smiled
"thank you" she smiled and headed into her office followed by Joe, Pierre and Charlotte "Hello" she said answering the phone as Pierre and Joe watched "and are you sure?" she asked "Ok, see you in a while then" she hung up
"well? was that the Doctor?" asked Joe as Charlotte looked up and Clarisse nodded
"what did he say?" Pierre asked watching her
"he said" she answered not taking her eyes from Joe "he said we are going to have a baby" Charlotte's jaw dropped as she watched Joe rush over to Clarisse
He wrapped his arms around her and swung her around while sharing a kiss and Pierre laughed watching them, after he stood her back on her feet he buried his face in the crook of her neck and whispered something secret to her then looked at her.
"I love you so much" he said and kissed her
"I love you too, wait though" she said as he looked at her "we have to go to see my Doctor, because of my age he wants to do a scan"
"ok" he said grabbing her hand "lets go" he said gently pulling her out the office as Pierre laughed and saw Charlotte
"oh hey Charlotte" he smiled "Charlotte" he said again waving his hand in front of her "Hello"
she came out the daze and looked at him "did... I hear right?" she stopped
"yes you did, it's great news isn't it?" he laughed and left her stood in the office
"I still can't believe it" Joe smiled shutting the door
"neither can I?" Clarisse said slipping of her coat as Pierre appeared
"you was gone a long time" he asked checking his watch as they both looked over at him
"yes, sorry we stopped of to talk with the Prime Minister, you no to get some advice" she answered
"ahh ok and what did he say" Pierre asked
"some good advice actually" she smiled "all will come out soon"
"ok" he said smirking as he slipped on his jacket "so how did the scan go?"
"very well actually" she chuckled feeling a hand on her back
"are you going to tell him or shall I?" Joe whispered
"tell me what?" he said watching as Clarisse looked at Joe then back at him "oh god your gonna tell me it's twins aren't you?"
"no no" Clarisse laughed "nothing like that" she smirked
"then what?" Pierre asked
"well" Joe started "the doctor started the scan and he asked Clari how far along she thought she was" he smiled at Clarisse then back at Pierre "she answered being the obvious a month or so, being the first time after her accident" he smirked
"oh please don't tell me that" Pierre gasped and pulled a face as Clarisse stood laughing
"sorry" Joe smirked
Clarisse smiled "anyway, cut a long story short it wasn't that time" she smiled at Joe
"well when then?" Pierre asked
"it was we are guessing the time around my accident" she smiled as Joe put his hand on her side "the morning of it actually"
"oh, ewww?" Pierre said thinking about it "so you had that accident and, wait" he stopped "that was... 4 months ago?" he watched as Clarisse nodded "your 4 months pregnant" he asked as she nodded "but you don't even have a bump or anything"
"the doctor said that the baby is resting against my back that's why there is no bump" Clarisse said beaming
"oh Mom" Pierre smiled "I am so happy for you" he stepped closer and hugged her and kissed her cheek "and you too Joe" he smiled stepping back and shook his hand
"thank you, darling" Clarisse nodded noticing the coat "are you off out?"
"yes I am actually, I am going to meet up with some mates in town" he answered
"well please be safe, please" Clarisse said starting to worry
"don't worry I will be" he said watching her
"do you want a lift anywhere?" Joe asked "I am heading that way to grab us some dinner"
"yea that would be great, thanks" Pierre nodded and hugged Clarisse again "please don't worry, ok" he whispered
"I cant help it" she shrugged
"don't worry I won't let her worry" Joe smiled "be back in a bit" Joe whispered and kissed Clarisse goodbye then headed out with Pierre
"ok" she said standing at the door as they headed down to the car "see you tomorrow, Pierre" she smiled and waved them off
They waved as they drove of then Clarisse shut the door and headed up to their suite, changing into something more for the occasion.
"Clarisse" Joe called out as he came into the suite and noticed the table set with two candles
"yes" she said standing in the door way to the bedroom as he looked over "what's the matter?" she asked looking down at her dress then back at him
"nothing" he watched as she walked over to him "you look breathtaking" he said placing his hand on her side and gave her a kiss
she chuckled "thank you" she tilted her head a little as he looked her up and down "Joe, don't do that, please"
"I can't help it" he said making eye contact and stood in front of her "you look so damn sexy" he whispered and kissed her neck as she put her arms up locking them around his shoulders sharing a deep passionate kiss
Clarisse giggled as he cupped her ass with his hands "Joe..."
"hmmm" he answered kissing her neck
"the dinner?" she asked as he lifted his head and looked at her
"forget the dinner" he said scooping her up in his arms taking her by surprise "I'm going straight to dessert" he said and kissed her while heading over to the bedroom, kicking the door shut behind them.
"oh my" Clarisse exclaimed
