"How are you baby?" Calum said and gave me a quick kiss as I sat next to him.

"I'm okay." I said with a sigh.

"What's wrong?" He asked and softly rubbed my back.

"My back always hurts, my feet are huge and swollen, I don't fit in my clothes anymore and I just bought new ones not that long ago, and I'm always tired. Also the girls always want to go shopping for baby stuff and are dragging me out of the apartment almost everyday and Noah always wants to go to the park." I complained while he just sent me an amused look.

"Have you taken any of my money like I told you to?" He asked with a tone that already told me he knew the answer.

"No and I'm not going to. It's your money." I said firmly.

"That's also my baby that you have in there. Take some of my money, please Brenna I want you to take it and spend it." He said and put his hand on my thigh.

"No, it's yours." I said which made him roll his eyes.

"You're being difficult B. You're having my baby and you're spending all of your well deserved money on it. I'm telling you to take my money and spend it, I have plenty of it. You won't spend all of it, I bet you won't even spend a quarter of it. Take as much as you want and spend it on you and our little girl." He said and gave me a convincing look.

"It doesn't feel right spending your money." I defended.

"Then it's our money. Spend our money on our baby girl and on you, and on Noah." He said and placed a gentle kiss on my temple.

"I don't like this you know." I said but he just shook his head.

"I don't care. Once I'm out of here I'll be spending it on you three anyway so get used to it." He said which made me groan.

"Spend it on the kids, not me." I said firmly.

"There's plenty of it B, I'll be spending as much of it on you as I want." He said which made me sigh and give up on arguing.

"I have good news." He said excitedly.

"What is it?" I asked and rested my elbows on the table.

"I get to come home in a month." He said with a wide smile.

"You do? How? You still have like six months left." I said in shock and nearly jumped out of my seat.

"Well I told Paul that I've got a little girl on the way and we were able to figure something out. He said that since I haven't caused trouble and I've been doing everything I've been told to do they'll let me out early." He said which made me smile hugely.

"You get to come home next month?" I asked and covered my huge and ridiculous smile with my hands.

"I'll be home the 17th." He said with a huge smile.

"I feel like you've been here forever." I said and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I know, I miss you so much and you see me all the time." He said and rubbed my back as he placed kisses on my neck.

"I can't wait for you to come home." I said and placed a tender kiss on his cheek.

"Me too." He whispered and let out a deep sigh.

"Are you going to move all of your stuff in?" I asked since he technically still had his own apartment.

"Promise you won't throw my stuff out this time?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Promise you won't cheat on my this time?" I asked and reciprocated the same look as him. He just laughed and shook his head before he kissed me.

"I promise." He said and placed another quick kiss on my lips.

"Then we'll be alright." I said and moved his long curls out of his face.

"She's going to be so beautiful." He said after looking at me for at least a minute.

"Yeah if she looks like you." I said in a duh tone which made him scoff.

"Come on B you're beautiful. I don't tell you enough and that's on me but I mean it, you're beautiful." He said and held my cheeks in his hands.

"I love you." I said softly and placed my hands over his and gently squeezed them.

"I love you more my darling." He said and pressed a sweet kiss on my lips.

"And I love you baby girl." He said and dipped his head down near my stomach. He placed both of his hands on my stomach and carefully kissed my stomach where she ended up kicking him. He laughed and just shook his head at her. She always kicked him after he spoke to her or he kissed or touched my stomach. She's already daddy's little girl it's so cute.
