DECLAN’S P.O.V
Me and Bridget walked into Mum, Steve and Miranda’s house and found mum red in the face and running around the house arranging things.
“Mum?” I asked.
“Huh oh your back, just in time, India just woke up” Rebecca ran over to her laptop and started typing on it.
“Umm” I pointed at the bedroom as if to say should I go get India or stay here?.
“I’ll go get her” Bridget walked off.
“What’s up mum?” I asked her sitting next to her on the couch.
“Oh! We haven’t told you yet, Paul and I are getting married on Monday” Mum told me.
“You’re what!” I was shocked, Monday was only three days away.
“Here have a look” mum told me sliding the computer to me.

Dear Declan, Bridget and India…
You are invited to attend the wedding of Paul Robinson and Rebecca Napier…
Monday the 5th of January 2010 starting at 1pm.
At Lasseter’s Park.

“Mum you didn’t have to write me an invite, I’m your son” I shook my head, “How are you even going to organize this on such a short notice?”.
“Oh this coming from Declan who married his wife the same day they found the church?” Mum scoffed irritably, “Anyway I need space so…”.
Bridget came out of the bedroom holding an irritable India who looked cranky at being awake, I went and picked up India’s huge amount of luggage and we left mum to do her wedding stuff.

“What was that about?” Bridget asked on the drive home.
“Mum and Paul are getting married on Monday” I said.
“They’re what?” Bridget almost yelled which woke up India from the backseat who started crying.
“I know, its short notice, I mean you don’t have a bridesmaid dress, India doesn’t have a dress yet, I don’t have a suit….” I began as we got out of the car.
“I cant believe your worrying about clothing…” I started, “…Wait India does have a dress…I bought her one”.
“Really?” I picked up the nappy bag and the clothes bag, “Can we leave the porta cot in there?” I asked.
“No bring it in” Bridget picked up India and tried to sooth her crying.
“great” I thought of the prospect of a million trips to the car again, “I suppose we cant talk though, I mean we found a church to get married in and got married on the same day”.
“I suppose, wait I’ll get her to bed and then help you bring the bags in” Bridget indicated India who was falling asleep in her arms again.
“No you wont” I said, “You’re pregnant”.
“I’m not diseased Declan, you weren’t this protective when I was pregnant with India” She said.
“Well I was stupid then, anyway I’ll keep unloading bags” I said walking out the front door again.

“Eghh finally” I said as I dumped the last bag on the ground of mine and Bridget’s bedroom.
Then India started crying, I walked out and on the way to India’s room I spotted Bridget asleep on the couch.
“Hey gorgeous” I picked up India who stopped crying as soon as she saw me, “Did you have a bad dream?...come into the kitchen and I’ll make you a bottle and you can tell me all about it”.
Bridget was at the doorway listening to this and smiling at her husbands baby voice to their daughter.
“Oh I didn’t mean to wake you” I said shocked to see Bridget there.
“You didn’t, India did” Bridget said, “Here I’ll feed her, saves making a bottle” I took her from him.
“Alright” I handed India over, “I might get started on a resume”.

I just love this story. It is so heart warming, reading it.

DECLAN'S P.O.V
"Hurry up!" Bridget snapped at me, i was standing trying to fix the tie i had on so that it sat straight.
"I'm hurrying, go get India" I told her trying to stop her from grabbing me by the ear to take me to the car.
"India is in her car seat and at the front door, your the only one not ready yet" She snapped at me.
"Ok fine, does my tie look ok?" i turned to her, she started laughing.
"Dec its all wonky" She chuckled and undid it.
"Fine fix it up" I sighed.
"We are going to be late, i think your mother will kill me and her unborn granddaughter" Bridget sighed putting my tie back on.
"Least it will be an interesting wedding" I grinned jokingly which earnt me a kick in my shin.
"Come on" Bridget took my hand and we walked to the door, thats when we saw it......

[suse]

Aarrgghhh...what will it be .

Great stuff Lia ;D.

BRIDGET'S P.O.V
"INDIA YOU CRAWLED!" i cried running to her.
India looked up at me with a confused look on her face as if considering why her mother was acting like a complete nutcase.
Declan picked her up and put her so that she was facing the other way, "Do it again".
India looked around then rolled back onto her back.
Me and Declan both heaved a sigh both wondering why our daughter refused to do what we say.
"Indy do it again" Declan picked her up and put her on her hands and knees...again she rolled over to her back.
"India!" we both cried, Declan once again flipped her over, this time i threw one of her pink teddies across the room..she started crawling towards it, Declan filmed her for a bit on his phone.
"I'm so proud of you" i picked up India and gave her a cuddle.
"Bridget" Declan pointed at the clock, it was quarter to one.
"Oh shit" I ran to the door, "Get the carseat Declan".
'oh yeah like i can forget that' Declan muttered under his breath.

[suse]

Awww she crawled ;D. That was just soooo sweet. I can totally picture that happening you know...sigh .

Thank you!! Love it!

DIDGE'S P.O.V
Once at the wedding i head around the back where Carmella is waiting for me.
"got here alive then?" Carmella sighed, she looked annoyed.
"What's wrong?" i asked her.
"Oliver decided to be annoying this morning, didnt want to put his suit on or anything, then Chloe spilt her glass of milk on herself, so i spent the morning trying to get the milk out of her dress" Carmella sighed.
"Ah kids..why do we have them?!" I looked down at my growing belly.
"Point taken..oh i think Paul's here" Carmella pointed.
We stood silently and watched as Paul walked up the aisle towards Oliver who was deliberately not looking at Carmella.
Then we waited, i felt sorry for Declan, he had to stand out in the cold away from the tent and wait for Rebecca to come. But she didnt take long, Chloe was passed out first and Declan put her on the ground and whispered something in her ear that made her laugh then she started walking up the aisle.
Then Rebecca stepped out, and i must admit she looked gorgeous, her dress was cream coloured and full length.
Declan whispered something in her ear and that made her go red and laugh.

DECLAN'S P.O.V
"Ready?" I asked mum who i was about to escort up the aisle.
"Yep" Mum told me.
We began the slow walk up to the aisle, i could see Bridget right in front of me and i grinned and winked at her..Oliver was now holding Chloe as she'd finished her duty's as flower girl and had gone over to him.
Once we got to Paul i handed mum over and told him to "Look after her".
Paul nodded and looked at Rebecca and said "I will".
I went over and stood behind Oliver, Chloe and Paul and the proceedings started.
I stared at Bridget the whole way through, she was so beautiful in her dress, her belly was just starting to show, we were going to have another baby, another daughter, India's little sister, i could hardly dare to believe my luck in this life.
"You may kiss the bride" the priest said, me and Oliver looked away in disgust and Carmella and Bridget laughed at us.

*Ok i didnt add Lyn...when i started this chapter i was going to but i realised if i did she'd just end up dying in some brutal and inhumane way in my story because i hate her so much*

[smilelino]

Sweet how Declan kept on looking at Didge. Thank you for updating.

[suse]

That was so lovely ;D.

I am in 2 minds about Lyn. Sometimes she mildly amuses me..but most of the time I find her particularly grating .

[Bee]

she's turned old and annoying...when she lived in the street when the timmins' were still there she was good

but now i just find her storylines annoying....

if she really needed the money i'm sure joe would give it to her..for Oscar...

anyway thanks for comments...omg i've gone to the darkside really badly..i cant even believe it myself....i wrote a story where Declan was paired off to someone else...

dw though....thats what i keep saying to myself...Bridget will be there soon LOL

WHAT?

You are killing me woman!!

[Han]

You should have seen my reaction Suse when she told me that too!

[Bee]

Suse dw dw!!

its a story about Bridget coming back from the dead 10 years later, of course he's going to be paired with someone else (i know i dont want him to be either, i tried my hardest to avoid it but the story just went that way) but as soon as Bridget comes he starts sort of cheating on this new girl with Bridget and eventually its all happy families again.....

[suse]

Mmm OK...as long as its not bloody Kate .
