Julie's POV

"Angel" I heard a faint whisper echo through my ears as I remained to keep my eyes closed

"Angel, wake up" It was Mum's gentle touch that woke me out of my sleep. I had cried so much the evening before that I fell asleep in an unconscious state sleeping through the night and into noon the next day. Opening my eyes was a job; my eye lids had glued themselves together with sleep and tears. I began to cough as I tried to voice my words, the scratchy and burning feeling was too much.

"Bubba open your eyes" Mam sounded worried as I felt her sit beside me on the bed. I shook my head as my chin began to tremble covering my face letting a sob escape my lips. Mam wordlessly pulled the cover off me and took me into her arms, I could just sense it was Mam by her touch and familiar scent

"It's okay, let it out" She cradled me into her lap rubbing my back for some sort of comfort

"I-" I couldn't manage to speak with my voice completely lost. I felt her take my face in between her soft hands and forcefully prying my eyes open making me wince tears spilling out healing the pain

"I can't talk" I said in barely a whisper

"Let me go make you some soup" Mum said giving me a kiss on my cheek; leaving both Mam and I on the bed still held in her arms

"Let us just hold you" She pulled us both onto the bed letting me lay on her with my head resting on her chest

"Olivia had to go, her Nana called her saying she needed her. She wanted us to tell you she loved you and she'll be back when she gets done" She said running her fingers through my hair

"You know I love you? Right Bubba?" she asked, her voice suddenly getting thick with tears. I lifted my head to get a better view of her looking at her confused

"What's wrong?" My voice barely audible

"I just want to be the best Mam I can be" She sniffed whilst stroking my cheek. I didn't reply I simply smiled with tears in my eyes, no words were needed to be spoken; in my case I couldn't. So I held onto her, cuddled her like it would be the last time she would ever hold me this way. Conveying all the unspoken words, and love into this hug. I tapped my finger against her heart before taking her hand into mine resting it against my own heart

"I love you too Bubba"

Julie's POV

"Mum I can drink my own cuppa tea you know" I said in a raspy voice, it seemed to heal a little with the soup Mum had made for me earlier. My parents have been treating me like a 3 year old. I was currently sitting in Mum's lap, she wouldn't allow me to sit anywhere else as she fed me my soup and now she had been making me drink this herb-like-tea which was foul if you ask me

"If I don't feed you it I know you won't drink it, now come on finish the rest" She said lifting my head off her chest bringing the cup to my mouth

"Just a tiny bit more" She said as I groaned scrunching my face at the horrible taste. I reluctantly drank the rest in one go settling back down in her lap sighing sleepily

"You want to talk about it now?" Mam asked taking my hand in hers as she sat beside Mum

"There's nothing to talk about" I said hiding my face in Mum's chest

"So you're upset for no reason? No one loses their voice from crying for no reason peanut" She said stroking my hair

"It's nothing" I said not wanting to talk about it, and I think they got the hint because they instantly changed the subject

"We're going later on today to the park" Mam said not allowing me to object or approve

"It'll be a nice change to go out and get some fresh air" She added

"Mam I'm not five.. Why do we need to go to the park?" I groaned

"Well I'm 31 and your Mums 32 and you don't see us complaining about going to the park! It'll be good for you Jules"

"Fine" I huffed trying to get off Mum's lap but she pulled me back

"Where you going?" She pouted, god they can be so clingy.

"I just need the loo" I lied needing to be on my own at the moment. She released me from her tight hold allowing me to leave and take a breather

Kim's POV

"I'm worried" Chezza said as she laid her head against my shoulder resting her hand on my now little growing bump

"She'll be much happier today" I said giving her a smile to reassure her

"I hope so, babe.. You haven't been eating? what's up with that?" She said running her hand into my shirt

"Babe, I just had about 4 bowls of soup with Jules" I laughed lightly at how silly she was being

"That's nothing, what do you want us to get you for dinner today? I can make you something but I don't want you's to get sick" She said biting her lower lip nervously

"I could do with one of you" I purred in her ear licking and nibbling on her earlobe

"Kimba, you need to control your hormones! What has gotten into you, you animal!" she chuckled looking at me with amusement

"What.. it's not my fault you're so sexy!" I kissed her sticking my tongue into her throat craving the taste of her sweet saliva

"Did you not get enough of us this morning?" she said as I laid her onto the sofa kissing and licking down her neck

"I guess not, god Cheryl.. You don't even know what you do to me" I said already rocking myself against her thigh. Ever since I got pregnant my sex level has been on an ultimate high with just one touch against my center can send me into the most amazing and powerful orgasms I hadn't experienced until pregnancy

"F-Fck" I gasped as my climax built up and rushed out of me within seconds

"Like fck you just came! Babe I didn't even touch you!" Cheryl hissed as I zoned her out riding out my orgasm

"Mmm" I laid there motionless letting my sex high to ease through

"I can't even believe this" Cheryl complained laying beneath me huffing and puffing; she still couldn't believe what I had been experiencing with these new hormones

"Mu- Please don't tell me you guys were about to go at it on the damn sofa!" Julie's voice made me chuckle, even with it gone and raspy she still manages to tell us off

"Too fcking late! Your Mum came and I didn't even fcking touch her! Get off us you numpty!!" Cheryl was pissed and I only did what I would naturally do and that's tickle her

"S-Stop!" she giggled batting my hands away

"Stop whining!" I kissed her abruptly climbing off and walking over to Julie who was giggling away

"What's up?" I asked stroking her cheek

"Where were you guys yesterday?" She asked taking both Cheryl and I by surprise. I wasn't the best liar and I was stuck, stilling my hand against her cheek

"I came home around 10 in the morning and you guys weren't here.. and it's the next day? I slept in that long.. I didn't see you guys" She added

"You went back to sleep at ten?" I asked shocked at how long she had been sleeping

"Mhmm.. I know that's exactly how my face looked when I realized, erm can we get some ice cream before we go?" She asked suddenly forgetting her earlier question making me mentally sigh with relief

"Yeah of course, go and get dressed" I said giving her quick pecks on the forehead watching her walk out and up the stairs

"Well thank fck for that!" Chezza and her foul mouth

"Do you have to curse in every sentence that comes out of your mouth?" I folded my arms looking at her with my eyebrow raised

"Don't think you can go around speaking like that when this baby gets here!" I added seriously

"Aye, Aye keep your knickers on! Actually you should probably go change into some new ones those are probably soaked!" She winked giving my backside a rough slap running out hurriedly going up the stairs

Julie's POV

I had zoned my parents banter out as I stroked Lucky whose been laying asleep in my lap throughout the whole car ride. I kept wondering what Sophie would be doing right now, would she be happy? Are they treating her okay? I only wished the best for her, I was sad yes. But if she was happy then that's all that mattered. As long as she was happy I kept telling myself, I needed to be strong for her.

"Bubba!" Mam yelled making me jump

"What!?" I shouted instantly regretting it; coughing at the scratchy-feel my throat still felt

"I said come down and get your ice cream" She said

"Can you just get it for me, I don't feel like walking through them" I said pointing out the paparazzi that never seemed to leave us alone

"Aye okay, I'll keep the car on" She said locking the doors and leaving me with my thoughts once again taking over my emotions. I needed to find her, she couldn't have gone far. I needed Carla to fess up and tell me the address, maybe if I approached the situation differently they probably would have told me. I'll have to bribe them with some more signed merchandise. It didn't take long for my parents to come back motioning for me to unlock the doors, I rolled my eyes leaping forward clicking the unlock button

"Here you are baby" Mam said handing me the bowl of filled ice cream

"Thank you" I said already shoveling it down. The car was filled with light music as Mam sped through the streets arriving at the park within minutes

"Put Lucky on the leach" Mum said before climbing out of the car

"They are annoying? Aren't they Lucky?" I said scratching his head

"I'm still in the car you know" Mam said making me yelp out in fear

"Don't do that!" I said swatting her shoulder as she laughed

"Come on pet" she got out of the car and came over to my side opening my door for me

"Don't let that leach out of your hand" She warned as we walked along the grass

"Mam he won't hurt a fly" I said allowing him to lead us over to the picnic Mum had setup

"Jules there's a reason we brought you here today" Mum said as we sat about on the blanket snacking away

"Hmm?" I said biting into the baby carrot

"You'll see in a minute" Mam said and I just looked at them with narrow eyes

"What are you two up to?" I said making them both smirk cheekily

"Why don't you look over there" Mam said nodding her head making me turn around

"S-Sophie?"
