new beginnings and new love.

cassidy sighed " its ok and we should let him know " she said moving to kiss him gently " I understand and desert sounds good " she said with a smile making a note to tell steven about how Dalilah is acting. She sighed and lent on Clay slightly feeling contented now with him there that was till their daugter kicked and she took a sharp breath in " hum seems our daugter wants desert" she said and rubbed her tummy.

"Yeah maybe." Clayton whispered, "she would never tell him on her own she wouldn't want to hurt him by letting him see her that way. same goes for Dylan. She tries to be strong." he Flagged the waiter "desert it is" he whispered "order what ever you want just not ice-cream with pickles." he said and kissed her hand.

"how can i help you?" the waiter asked

"can we see a desert menu?" Clayton asked

"wee." the waiter replied and handed them to the two who sat there.

"mind ordering for me Cass?" he asked still unable to speak and read French.

Cassidy held his hand as he touched it and she smiled gently to him " no Im fine for once " she said " maybe we should visit them to check she is all right its been a while since I have seen steven and I realy should let him know to tel the others Im all right or they will think I don't care when I do , there the only family I have in this strange world" shechuckled " I don't count you as family as you are my husband and love of my life " she iad and smiled leaning forward to kiss him gently.

Clayton shook his head, “Delilah would know I told you. She’d try to keep us away from Steven and Dylan or she will leave in the middle of the night. She’d leave a note saying she’d come home soon and take off. She’s done it before like right after it happened. When she lost them she lost everything. She had once had all this money but then all of the sudden she didn’t even have a cent to her name.” he kissed her back, “what do you want?” he asked. It was obvious he was worried about Delilah. He really did think of her like a sister.

Cassidy looked at him " I'd still like to go I'd like to see the twins " she said smiling hoping she could catch steven on his own then she shook her head " no its ok Im sure steven has it all under control " she said mocing to his side she wrapped her arms around him " but if you that worried we could cal in and check on her I promise not to mention to steven anything about the anniversory" she said smiling as she kissed him gently. Taking his hand she let him feel their daughter moving inside her and she smiled hapily at him " only 5 months left " she sid softly.

Clayton kissed Cassidy’s hand, "we will go if you'd like." he whispered "just let me talk to Delilah for a minute if she hasn't already ran off." she put his arm around Cassidy as she put his other hand on her stomach. "five more months then we will have our child to take care of." he whispered and kissed Cassidy on the head. he whished he knew that everything would be fine with Delilah and Steven and even more his daughter and Cassidy. "we will leave for their house tomorrow evening and then Australia the next day." he whispered and kissed her again.

cassidy lay againsy him and smiled " yes I do want to go and thats ok with me " she said softly as she moved to look at him with a smile " 5 more months and she will be in our arms and not inside me " she said and chuckled softly as she rested against Clay " I wish I could find the words to tell you just how much I love you clay but there is none" she moved to kiss his cheek then sit back with him her hand taking his in it as she rested it on her knee.

“okay we will go.” Clayton whispered and kissed her on the head. He flagged down the waiter and asked for the cheek. But first we are going to the hotel and your going to sleep.
“yes sir?” the waiter asked
“Cheek please.” Clayton said and the waiter walked off, “I can’t wait five months. I can’t wait to hold our baby girl.” he whispered and kissed her on the head again. The waiter brought the cheek and Clayton paid before getting up and helping Cassidy out of her chair before walking out of the door whit her. “come on honey you need to sleep.”

cassidy smiled moving to hold him " I know clay , these months will fly I just know it " she rubbed her tummy where she felt a slight pull and smiled " but I do feel tired and full now " she chuckled leaning on him as they walked back to the hotel " and happy clay , I feel like the happiest woman alive" she thought about the money her father had left her and sighed " you know clay, we should buy a house here or at least close to Brian Quinn, that way it won't take me so long to get to work " she said smiling thinking about a lovly nursary for their daughter " I t would be good to put my fathers money into something good, since he never did" she entered their room and sighed as she sat down on the bed to look at him.

“What ever you want,” Clayton whispered as the walked. Once inside the hotel room he sat down on the bed next to Cassidy leaning against the headboard and held his wife in his arms. He moved so her head rested on his shoulder. “Go back to sleep Hun,” he whisper and kissed her on the head, “I’ll be here when you wake up.” he started humming quietly to the tune on a lullaby and closed his eyes as he did. Soon he himself was drifting asleep. “I love you Cassy,” he whispered before he fell into a deep sleep. In his dreams he saw his family. All of them alive and dead together.
