Fourteen

The four of them pulled up to the house, Paige bouncing around as she reached the front door, begging Bella to hurry up and unlock it. Bella walked up, Alex behind her with his hands placed on her sides as Zack followed, shaking his head at Paige whilst laughing to himself.

"GUYS. GUYS. GUYS. GUYS." Paige exclaimed as she bounced over to Rian and Jack. "GUESS. WHAT." She carried on bouncing. "C'MON. GUESS." Paige was growing impatient.

"Erm, Paige. Do you mind? I'd like to tell it myself." Bella said with a stern look.

"Sorry. I'll just sit and wait for you to tell the details but oh my God, hurry up!" Paige sat down, still bouncing up and down like a little child. Zack sat down next to her and put his hand on her knee, whispering in her ear for her to calm down. "I'm too excited to calm down!" She whispered in reply. "My best friend is having a baby!" She whispered even quieter.

"So.. what's the news then?" Jack said with a wary look on his face, watching Paige as she grew even more impatient with a massive grin, Zack as he put his hand up to his face, and Bella and Alex who stood there laughing at Paige.

"Yeah, c'mon. Spill. Something's cheered Miss Happy-pants right up and we wanna know!" Rian joined in.

"Okay.. well, would you like the picture or the proof?" Bella teased.

"What do you mean?" Jack said with an empty look on his face.

"Stop being so cryptic and just tell them!" Paige squealed.

Bella frowned at Paige, wishing she would calm down. She looked at Alex who nodded his approval and lifted off his hoodie that she was wearing. Now left standing in her jeans and a tiny vest, her bump was on display for all to see. Rian and Jack rose from their seats, gasping in shock. They ran over to Bella and hugged her, squeezing her tight. Jack picked Bella up and span her around and Rian high-fived Alex.

"Wait, so what did you mean by a picture?" Rian asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Everyone, I would like you to meet Isobel Louisa Gaskarth." Bella smiled as she pulled the scan picture out from her pocket. Alex watched as she passed around the picture around, watching everyone's faces change to glee.

Alex pulled her closer and whispered in her ear. "You're.. n-naming her after.. my.. my Mum?" He gulped, tears in his eyes and a frog in his throat. Bella just smiled and gave him a subtle nod.

"Why? Do you mind? Do you think your Mum will mind?" Bella asked, confused.

"No. She'd.. she'd love it. Thank you. I love you." Alex placed a kiss on Bella's forehead, squeezing her tight next to him.

Paige stopped as the scan picture reached her, holding it and staring, gulping as her eyes welled up. "You're giving her my middle name?" She looked up at Bella with sad eyes. Covering her mouth and starting to cry when Bella nodded and held out her arms, beckoning Paige closer for a hug.

Paige whispered into Bella's shoulder. "I called my baby Olivianna. I hope you don't mind."

Bella gulped and the two of them stood there crying their eyes out. The boys joined in the hug, surrounding them, protecting them. They were now officially going to be one big family, even more than they were before. Paige clung on tight to Bella, and the action was reciprocated.

"So, how far gone are you? You never told me." Paige remembered as everyone pulled away from the group hug.

"I'm eighteen weeks. If I last full term, the Midwife said that I should have five months left." Bella answered, fear in her eyes as she thought of how fast those months would fly by. "Paige, can I ask you something? Over there?" Bella questioned as she pointed to the kitchen area. Paige followed her and stood in front of Bella, who held Paige's hands and took a deep breath. "Paige. You're my best friend and I love you, an awful fucking lot. What I am about to ask of you, is a massive question and I understand if you decline."

"You're not gonna ask me to marry you, are you? Because I might have to decline on that one." Paige laughed as she squeezed Bella's hands.

"No. You dickhead. Will.." Bella took another deep breath. "..will you be Isobel's Godmother?" Bella breathed out, looking Paige in the eye.

"Are.. are you s-sure?" Paige stuttered as tears once again, filled her eyes.

Bella nodded and Paige took her in her arms, holding her tightly.

"Of course I will. I'd be happy to. Oh my God. Thank you, so much. I love you."

"I love you too, best friend." Bella smiled at Paige. They both wiped their eyes, frowning in disgust at the amount of black smudges they picked up. They laughed at each other as they walked to the sink and washed their hands.

Alex looked over at Bella and watched her. He truly had found one amazing girl. And from the moment that he gave her that note, he knew he wouldn't change a thing.

Comments

I just read this story and its prequel and sincerely loved them both. You're an amazing writer, and these stories dealt with a lot of emotions, ranging from sad to loving and I just really enjoyed them both. You captured both of these themes really well. It took me a few chapters to get into the first story, but once I did, I was hooked and just kept reading until I finished this one. All within... two days I believe, I just couldn't stop reading it.
Even though it's been a few years since you've posted them, I just thought I would leave a comment and let you know I really enjoyed them. Great job with them. Just wanted to show people like me are still stumbling across them and enjoying them. <3
I'm bummed to see you haven't written anything else; if you ever choose to one day, let me know and I will for sure read what you have. You're a very talented writer and I would love to read more of your writing. No pressure though, lol.
