Relief flowed through me, as I sat on the bathroom floor. I told him! Mind, Fletch was stood in the corner of the room looking as white as a ghost.
"How long Tess?" he asked, once the news had sunk in.
"I don't know, 2 maybe 3 months," I told him. "I thought it was the menopause,"
"And you didn't think to tell me?" Fletch asked.
"Look I'm not sure what I thought Fletch. But I know it's your baby, and I love you lots!"
He came towards me and sat on the floor next to me. He gazed into my eyes for a second before he kissed me.
"I love you too, and I want us to be a proper family Tess! You me and the baby,"
"What about Nat?" I asked cautiously.
"Look, I keep telling you Tess. Nat and I are just not working. There is no love there anymore. I can't help the fact that I've found someone else can I? I love you Tess Bateman! You're the best thing that's happened to me for a long time!" Fletch said.
"So what do we do now then?" I asked him.
"First we get you scanned to see how far you actually are, then we can deal with the rest as it comes," he said "but for now, I'll have to go home or Nat will get worried," and with that, fletch picked up his bags and kissed me. I kissed him back, a small tear rolled down my face. "I love you Fletch," and with that he left me standing in the doorway "see you at work tomorrow," I called out. He waved back.
