Bella stared into the bag, with a look of astonishment on her face. She looked up at Alex and gave him the biggest grin imaginable. Paige and Zack ran up to her and hugged her, as Alex watched with a tear in his eye.

"This must have cost so much! I can't believe it! Why?!" Bella squealed behind tears.

"Because we love you and we knew that you were so caught up in everything else and well, when Isobel gets here, it's gonna be a bit difficult to put her down to sleep, if she doesn't actually have anywhere to sleep. Now come on, shut up and let's go!" Zack demanded. He nudged Alex as he motioned for him to help carry the bag upstairs.

"Paige, I don't think you know just how much I love you right now." Bella said as she pulled Paige closer to her, giving her the tightest hug ever. Paige just smiled and nodded her head towards the stairs.

"I love you, too. Come on." She held Bella's hand and they walked up the stairs, Bella still wiping the tears from her eyes.

The four of them walked into the spare room to find Jack and Rian sitting on the floor, dressed in clothes that looked very slouchy.

"What the fuck? How long have you two been up here?"

"They've been here ever since you two were having sex this morning!" Zack answered Alex's question.

"Erm, what?" Bella asked as her cheeks lit up bright red.

"Yeah, y'know, you should really lock the doors when you have sex, because we just walked on in." Jack laughed.

"And you should probably keep it down as well. We heard a lot." Rian chuckled, trying to suppress the laughter that was bubbling inside.

"Exactly how much did you hear?" Alex chewed his lip, looking at Bella in embarrassment. Bella just smiled shyly.

"If we didn't know your name before.." Rian started.

"We do now.." Jack finished.

"OKAY, ENOUGH OF THIS. CAN WE JUST DECORATE NOW, PLEASE?" Bella shouted, breaking apart the conversation, her embarrassment plain and easy to see.

The four boys just laughed as Paige hugged Bella, trying hard not to laugh. Bella slapped Paige on the arm.

"So what are you doing here anyway?" Bella asked Jack and Rian.

"Zack told us to come over to help decorate." Rian answered, his famous grin on show. "You know we'd do anything for you two, especially for little Isobel!" He rose from his spot, walking over to Bella and kissing her bump. "It's okay, Is, you get to meet Uncle Rian soon!"

The six of them started on the spare room. Jack, Rian and Zack were painting three of the walls a soft grey, with a hint of white and pieces of glitter. Zack and Paige had picked the colours without warning Alex and Bella. Luckily they'd approved on the choice, agreeing that it was very neutral. They'd also agreed that it must have cost a lot for the tin of paint, because they'd looked at it plenty of times and high quality glitter paint, was always expensive. The walls were turning out very well, and everyone was impressed. Bella, Paige and Alex were sitting out in the hallway, trying to put together the variety of furniture that Paige and Zack had bought back with them. The occasional swear word could be heard from all three of them, as they fiddled with the little pieces that escaped their hands if they didn't hold them correctly.

At the end of the hallway stood a built cot and a set of drawers, and the three of them were now working on a changing table. Trying to align all of the parts correctly, seemed to prove more difficult than they imagined.

"You couldn't just buy the one that was already pre-built?!" Alex laughed, clearly irate at the fact that it wasn't fixing together as well he would like it to.

"Oh, I'm sorry but I thought you would like all of the furniture to match!" Paige gasped, faking shock as she threw the instructions at Alex, laughing when he pouted.

"I really like them, so much. They're so pretty." Bella sat staring in awe at the cot and the set of drawers.

The furniture was all painted black and polished to give it a shiny, modern edge and Paige knew that was exactly what Bella was in to. Even Alex liked it, which was a bonus too, considering the baby was something they were going to be sharing. The changing table was exactly the same and as soon as it was built and finished, the mat to go on top matched the paint on the walls. Paige and Zack had really put in a lot of effort, something which Bella and Alex were extremely appreciative of.

Jack, Zack and Rian came bouncing out of the new nursery, all seeming very cheery.

"Guys! The room is dry! Alex, we have to put the wallpaper up! Come on!" Jack exclaimed as he bounced happily over to Alex, grabbing him and bouncing back into the nursery. Zack waltzed in behind them as Paige and Bella sat and finished off the changing table, begging Rian to help them.

Zack pulled the wallpaper from the bag. "I didn't really have a say in the wallpaper, I warn you. Paige kinda looked at the paint and the furniture and said that it was a must.." He handed the rolls to Alex. "I hope it's alright, haha!" Zack chuckled nervously.

"Bella is going to love you two forever and a day, it's fucking amazing." Alex tore open the first roll of wallpaper. It was the same colour as the walls, and on it were black and dark grey outlines of stars, with pink shimmering pieces of glitter scattered all over. "Seriously, she's going to love it." Alex stared at the wallpaper as he placed it across the table that Jack and Zack had just put up, ready to paste it onto the main wall.

"Good job then that we're saving the best until last.." Zack teased, nudging Jack with a knowing smile. Jack laughed as he looked up at the ceiling, seeming to measure it up with his eyes. "Do you think it will work?" Zack whispered to Jack.

"Yeah, I don't see why it wouldn't. It will look fucking awesome, man."

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.
