A few weeks later.
"Welcome home Lily" Nick said softly as he carried his daughter into their flat in her car seat with his other hand locked in with Carla's.
They both sat down on the sofa as Nick gently took a sleeping Lily out of her car seat and into his arms. Carla leaned across and played with Lily's small fingers as her daughter wrapped her hand around Carla's one finger, causing both Carla and Nick to laugh.
"We should take her to meet everyone. They're all dying to see her." Nick suggested, as Carla nodded in agreement.
They walked down the street, hand in hand, with Lily in her pram.
"Factory first?" Nick suggested as they headed towards it.
They both walked into the factory to hear the workers doing what they do best which was gossiping.
"Nice to see you guys working" Carla said as nobody had heard the couple walk in.
All the workers turned to see Carla and Nick standing with their baby and they all rushed to get a look at her.
"Can I hold her?" Beth asked as Carla bent down and took Lily out of her pram before setting her in Beth's arms. Lily settled into Beth for a few moments then she started to cry as Beth tried to settle her but it didn't work.
Nick laughed as Carla took her daughter back into her arms from Beth.
"Carla, she's beautiful." Sean smiled as Johnny and Aidan came out of the office.
"She is. Gets it from her mum" Nick laughed.
"Guys get back to work" Carla joked, as she went into the office with Nick, Johnny and Aidan.
"How are you guys?" Johnny asked.
"We're good, aren't we?" Carla smiled up at Nick as she sat down at her own desk, with a now settled Lily.
"This came for you earlier" Aidan said, handing an envelope to Nick. Nick looked at Carla. They both knew exactly what was inside. The results from the DNA test confirming Nick was Lily's dad.
"Right we're going to head to the Bistro now. We'll see you later" Carla said, as she put Lily back into her pram and they headed off.
"Aww guys we're all so pleased for you" Leanne said as Nick proudly showed his daughter off to his staff.
Shortly afterwards, Lily started to cry the restaurant down again.
"I'm going to take her home and try to get her to sleep for a bit" Carla said, after both herself and Nick had tried everything to get their new baby to stop crying.
"Okay, I'll follow on in a minute. I just need to take this phone call from the supplier." Nick said, kissing his fiancée and his daughter as they left.
"Aw come on Lily.." Carla said, as she walked back to the flat with her daughter in her pram, still crying.
Carla turned the corner and came face to face with him.
Robert.
"Ah I was just thinking about this little one!"
Carla attempted to push the pram around Robert but he stepped out in front of her.
"You can't stop me from seeing my daughter." Robert warned and he walked round and stood next to Carla before putting his hands into the pram and lifting Lily out of it.
"Put her down!" Carla ordered him, as she attempted to take Lily from him but failed.
"No because she's my daughter.." Robert said, stroking his hand down Lily's cheek.
"Except she's not your daughter." Nick suddenly appeared round the corner. "So hand her back."
"Do you think if you keep telling yourself that it'll eventually be true? Sorry mate but you're not her dad." Robert smirked.
"Robert, give her back.. Please" Carla begged.
Nick produced the envelope from earlier from his pocket but it was now open.
"I think you'll find I am her dad and I have the proof right here."
