3 months pass

Kirin walked hand in hand with Ave towards the wool pack. Ava was now five months pregnant. Sarah had cancer again, and it was that day they would find out if Jack's bone marrow has cured her again. Ross would call as soon as he found anything out.

"Hiya, you two." Charity greeted them, a smug smirk spreading across her face. She now owned half of the pub, along with Chas.

"Orange juice and a pint, please, Charity." Kirin asked, handing her a ten pound note. Charity chuckled and started to pour them some drinks. She smirked at Ava as she poured an orange juice.

"Must hate being pregnant, eh? I did." Charity laughed.

"No, I enjoy it, actually. Knowing that in four short months I'll have a beautiful boy or girl to love of my own. Anyway, if you hadn't got pregnant, Ross wouldn't have Debs, or Moses. What'd we do without Moses? He's beautiful and I love him. So does Ross and Debs." Ava sassed her.

"Well, aren't you the perfect little family?" Charity rolled her eyes.

"Not perfect. But it works." She grabbed her drink and went to sit down at a table. Leyla, Victoria and Adam were at the same table. "Hey, bro." She side-hugged Adam.

"Well, this little ones certainly sprouting out nicely." Adam joked about Ava's growing belly.

"Must take after his Daddy." She chuckled back.

"Ahh, aren't they cute." Victoria grinned. "You'll make a lovely little family." She said as Kirin came to sit down next to his girlfriend.

"Any news from Ross yet?" Adam asked. Adam and Ross had gotten closer throughout the past few months, Adam had supported his half-brother a lot through what he was going through with Sarah and Debbie. Ava loved seeing her two favourite brothers get along finally, it made her life easier.

"No, he said he would call as soon as they get her results-" Ava told them as her phone started ringing.

"Hello, Ava?" Emma's voice shrilled through the phone. "I just wanted to check your eating all your vegetables, the baby needs the iron. And your eating enough protein and dairy products to help the baby grow." She advised her.

"Oh piss off, this line is being kept open for news from Ross. I'll look after my baby how I choose, and that won't be leaving it or suffocating it." Ava sighed, hanging up on her. "I have absolutely no idea why she keeps ringing me about 'baby stuff' it's not like she's ever going to be involved in my kids life. She won't be going anywhere my little poppet." Ava determined.

"It's alright, he or she will have amazing grandparents in my Dad and Priya." Kirin reassured her.

"And Dad." Ava said. "James is still going to be a part of poppets life, I just don't want Emma anywhere near out baby."

"James loved Johnny, when we thought he was mine. And he loves Moses, you know how much he loves little Mozza." Adam chuckled. "To be honest, I can't wait to have another little niece or nephew."

"Hey guys." Vanessa sat down with them, putting Johnny's pushchair next to her.

"Oh, ssh, it's Ross." Ava picked up her phone, "Boss? What's going on? Is Sarah ok?"

"All clear." Ross cried tears of happiness down the phone to his little sister. "We got the test results back half an hour ago, we've just been trying to take it all in."

"Guys, guys...Sarah's got the all clear!" Ava shouted to everyone in the pub.

They all cheered. "Ok, I'll see you in a bit. Love you, Ave." Ross hung up, Ava set her phone down on the table and took a sip of her orange juice.

"I really need to pee." Ava quickly got up, rushing to the toilet. Kirin automatically followed her, just to check that she was ok. He waited outside the ladies for her to come out. "You alright, babe?" Ava laughed at him as she walked out.

"Yeah, just wanted to check you were ok." Kirin smiled, pulling Ava into his arms in his warm embrace.

"I went for a wee, hun, nothing major." She giggled at him.

"I worry, ok. You and poppet are all I need. I love you both." Kirin told her, gently kissing Ava's forehead.

"Poppet and me love you too." Ava chuckled at this new sentimental Kirin, pulling his lips down to hers to kiss him properly. They walked back out to join their friends.

"Are you even going to say hi to your son?" Vanessa scoffed at Kirin.

"You told me you didn't want me anywhere near him?" Kirin looked confused.

"So now you've got your new girlfriend and kid, Johnny just doesn't matter all of a sudden?! He's your son, Kirin." Vanessa rolled her eyes at him. "Take a bit of responsibility for once in your life rather than acting like an immature teenager.

"He's more responsible than you ever will be." Ava laughed in her face.

"What's this got to do with you?!" Vanessa shouted at Ava, close to slapping her.

"Well. I'm his girlfriend, I'm pregnant with his kid, and we're moving in together. I would say for sure that it's my business, because we're starting a life together, so I'm going to stick up for him, obviously." Ava shook her head at Vanessa.

"And that's why I love you." Kirin grinned at his loud mouthed girlfriend.

"Babe, can we get home soon? I wanna be there when Boss and Debs get home with Sarah, plus Moses is with James so we need to get back for him." Ava asked Kirin.

"Yeah, come on." He got up, before holding out his hand to help Ava up.

"Our little poppets weighing me down you know? My back aches so bad." Ava complained, however still smiling.

"I'll massage it when we get home." Kirin rolled his eyes, leading her out of the pub, he knew that's what she had been hinting at.

"Thank youuu."

"They're gross." Vanessa moaned.

"Oi, that's my little sister you're talking about. Mind your own." Adam warned her.
