You quietly walk up the stairs of the home you and your boyfriend share, careful since your daughters still napping⌠or so you thought.
When you crack open the door to her nursery to check on her your heart drops at the sight of the empty crib.
You panic a little before you open Morganâs door to see him with your sixteen month old daughter comfortably sat on his lap.
You exhaled a breath of relief.
Itâs christmas day and youâve been clearing up the living room of all remnants of wrapping paper, while Morgan streamed from a little while before you headed over to your parentâs house for dinner.ďżź
Morgan slowly turned in his chair once he noticed you.
âHey,â he greeted you softly.
âI thought you were still streaming?â You walked over to them.
âI could hear her stirring, you were busy downstairs and Iâd already been on long enough so I just ended it and brought her in here,â he explained as she babbled in his lap, eyes focused on the kids show heâd put up on his monitor.
âCute,â you thought.
You smiled. âThank you,â you leaned forward to kiss him, grateful youâd found such a considerate man.
Unfortunately, even though he acts like it, Morgan isnât your babyâs real father. Her real dad ran off as soon as you told him you were pregnant, youâd decided you were better off without him.
You met Morgan just before you started showing. You were strictly friends and nothing happened until youâd had your little girl.
Thatâs when everything changed.
It started with him coming over to keep you company when you were struggling.
Then he started to help out by doing little things like, hanging some pictures youâd bought, bringing you dinner and watching the baby while you showered.
And along the way you fell in love. Though heâd been in love since the day he met you, he was just hoping you being able to rely on him would open your heart, and of course⌠it did.
âWeâre leaving in half an hour,â you reminded him.
âMhm,â he responded, looking back down at your daughter.
She looked up at him and showed her gummy little smile, giggling.
âDaddy,â she mumbled.
The both of you froze.
âWeâve never had that conversation. Are you okay with that?â You asked anxiously.
âAre you?â
You waited a moment, thinking, before you nodded.
âWell then so am I.â
He turned his attention back to her. âYeah. Daddy,â he confirmed with a smile.
She cheered, you almost cried but in that moment you knew youâd made the right choice in loving him.
Warnings - not detailed but there is mentions of sex
Before they even find out, everyone knows somethingâs off. Sheâs having a nap upstairs when Ginge comes down and sighs. The boys are all on the sofa just on their phones and talking casually.
âAlright mate?â Chazza looks up at Morgan who looks tense.
âMate.â He shakes his head. âDunno whatâs up with her but she is not happy at the minute.â
âShe went fucking off at me this morning about the crumbs on the side.â Heinz looks at Morgan.
âYeah, sheâs not good right now.â He takes a deep breath, flicking on the kettle.
âProbably hormonal, Heather gets like that sometimes.â Tays shrugs. âJust have to ride the wave, itâll pass.â
Morgan nods. An hour later, she wakes up and notices heâs not in the room with her anymore. She stretches slightly before picking up her phone and calling him.
âHello?â He answers the phone, slightly confused as to why sheâs ringing from upstairs.
âCan you come up?â She whines slightly.
âYeah, just a second love.â He ends the call and stands up, heading up the stairs. When he enters, sheâs still tucked up in the sheets.
âIâm sorry for being a bitch.â She says quietly. âI love you.â
âThatâs alright sweetheart, I love you too. I just want you to be happy.â He lays next to her and strokes her head.
âI am happy.â
âGood.â He kisses her forehead.
A few weeks later, the same attitude ensues. She wakes up one morning, Morgan had already left for work. She was starving itching for a slice of toast with butter and a cup of tea. She scrolls through her phone until she musters up the courage to go and make herself some breakfast. Her eyes widen when she checks what day it is.
âShit.â She heads straight to her period tracking app and sees sheâs 5 days late for her very regular period. Her stomach drops, her heart pounding. Then obviously she calls Morgan home and takes a test. Everything changed forever since then and the pair of them had never been so nervous.
He decides to tell all of the boys eventually but confides in Beano first. Beano watches over her constantly once he knows, particularly if Morganâs not there for whatever reason.
âFuck sake.â She stands on her very tip toes on the edge of one of the dining table chairs sheâd pulled over to the kitchen. But she still couldnât get it. Jakey thought it would be funny to leave the Nutella at the very back of a high cupboard so he wouldnât be tempted to eat anymore of it. She wasnât so strict with denying temptation these days though.
âWhat the fuck are you doing?â Beanoâs voice cuts through the air as she wobbles with a fright.
âBeano! Can you get this?â She struggles. âCanât reach.â
âGet fucking down! Are you mad?â He shouts. âYou couldâve fallen.â He helps her down and reaches up to get it himself.
âIâm fine.â
âReader, you canât do shit like that now. Itâs dangerous.â
âStop being dramatic! Iâm pregnant not incapable.â She scowls as he hands her the Nutella.
âIâm being serious! You need to think about what youâre doing.â
âGod, you sound like Morgan.â She rolls her eyes. âUntil youâre pregnant yourself, please donât tell me how to deal with this.
âIt doesnât take an idiot to know you shouldnât be climbing on chairs when youâre 4 months pregnant.â He shouts out of concern.
âWell maybe itâs Jakeyâs fucking fault for putting it there!â She shouts back.
âWell ask him to get it back down for you.â He claps back.
âStop shouting at me!â She shouts.
âYouâre shouting at me!â
âWoah, Oi! Whatâs going on? Whatâs with the shouting?â Morgan races in. Her eyes fill with tears now.
âDonât cry now heâs here-â Beano starts.
âBeano!â Morgan stops him before it goes any further and she gets more upset. âCâmere love. Whatâs up?â Morgan opens his arms and she walks into them. Crying into his chest. âI know, I know.â He strokes her hair. âJust talk to me, take a deep breath.â
She explains between hiccups and sniffles what happened and Morgan sighs a bit. âHeâs just looking out for you love, yeah?â And she nods, seeing sense again.
âSorry, I was such a bitch Beano, but you didnât have to shout at me.â She looks at him, her eyes red and puffy.
âIâm sorry for shouting. Here.â He hugs her, he knows sheâs going through it at the minute. She hugs him back and sniffles again.
Sheâs just every emotion all at once in the beginning. She canât even look at Morgan when heâs in his ballers suit without needing to jump his bones there and then (not that he complains). Theyâd been at it that morning in the shower as soon as theyâd woken up.
Morgan had left her asleep in bed when he got up for filming. He jumped in the shower and expected sheâd be asleep still when he got back. Until he heard the bathroom door open, a smile on his face as he saw her.
âAlright love? Thought youâd still be asleep.â
She shakes her head sleepily. âCan I come in?â
âCourse you can, come on.â She rids herself of her pajamas and steps under the water with him. It wasnât long before he had her holding onto the wall as he drilled into her from behind.
Then of course, that night when he got back home. She was at it again. Sheâd been cuddling with him for about an hour whilst watching tv in bed when her mind started to drift. Thoughts of what had happened that morning in the shower that eventually spilled into her replaying every sexual encounter sheâs ever had with Morgan. And suddenly with a damp patch on her knickers, she pulls herself up to straddle his waist.
âWhatâs up love?â He grins as he looks at her.
âNothing.â He can feel her fidgeting on his lap slightly. âWant you.â She says quietly.
âAgain? We had sex this morning.â
âNeed it again.â
Of course heâd never deny her when sheâs asking for that!
Then other times their evenings are quite the opposite and heâs having to console her over stupid things.
âI justâŚâ she cries.
âWhatâs wrong? Tell me love.â He strokes her hair.
âI just think you could be a little bit easier on Jakey.â She sobs. He has to hold back his laugh. âItâs just heâs so nice and heâs only young and you lot just take the piss out of him.â
âBabe, itâs a joke. He knows itâs a joke. Weâve spoke about this.â
âI know but,â she sobs harder. âDoes he actually know? Maybe he doesnât see it like that sometimes.â
âThat whole act he puts on gets him a hell of a lot of money sweetheart, I donât think he gives a shit. Weâre all his mates, he knows that.â
Summary; Yours and Morganâs journey from a family of three to a family of four.
Been trying to post this for hours kept deleting, then deleting from my drafts then wouldnât let me make a post at all â Iâve had to delete the app and try again, Iâm STRESSED! If I eventually get to post this please tell me itâs the best thing ever even if you hate it because Iâm cryin rn đ
The camera is propped up on a pile of baby books on the dresser. Youâre sat cross legged on the floor, attempting to organize a small mountain of baby clothes.
"Okay, so," you say to the lens, your voice hushed. "Weâve had the talk. Weâre officially trying for number two! It feels wild saying it out loud, considering Tilly was such aâ"
"A total accident?"
You jump, twisting around. Morgan is leaning against the doorframe, a â1st Birthdayâ teddy bear in his hand and that infuriatingly smug grin on his face.
"Shut up, knobhead, I was going to say 'surprise'." You roll your eyes, suppressing a laugh.
He chuckles, moving into the room and dropping down to sit right behind you. He sets the toy aside and pulls you back against his chest, his arms looping firmly around your waist. He leans his chin on your shoulder, squinting at the small camera screen.
"Weâre just being honest, Trouble" he says, his voice dropping to that lower, softer tone he only uses with you. He presses a kiss to your temple, then looks at the lens.
"Survived a year of parenthood and now weâre trying to add another one to the chaos. What could possibly go wrong?"
"Exactly.â You lean back into him, feeling the familiar comfort of his heartbeat against your spine. âAnd if it goes wrong, Iâm blaming you."
"Yeah, yeah," he says, squeezing your waist. "Whatever you say, Princess."
You let your head fall back looking up at him through your long lashes, his soft blue eyes meeting yours for a moment before flashing back to the camera.
âAnyways hopefully next time you see us sheâs successfully pissed on a stick!â Morgan claps, ending the segment.
Tilly was perched on your hip as you waited for your 3 minute timer to go. Minutes stretching on for hours.
âI know itâs probably negative, itâs only month one of tryingâ Your voice soft as you bounced the one year old gently on your hip.
Flipping over the test you tried to hide the disappointment from your face. One glaringly obvious, clearly negative, singular pink line staring back at you.
âThatâs okayâ you cooed, still bouncing the babbling Tilly. âJust round one, we got plenty of time havenât we Tilly girl?â
In the next clip you were standing in the same spot, Morgan had his strong arms around you, leaving kisses in your hairline as the result sunk in.
âItâs okay princess, not like trying to get one in there is a terrible choreâ he teased squeezing your hips.
You let out a sigh as you twisted in his arms, your own coming up and encircling his neck.
âItâs been three months squish!â You pouted up to him.
âYou had no symptoms this month though have you, trouble?â His hands tighten on your waist as he consoles you. âJust not the right time yet, try not to stress too much.â
âI think it means you need to get your mum to babysit and take me on another date night.â You tease to break the slight tension thatâs built.
âOh yeah? Sure it does, dickhead.â He laughed as the clip cut.
A series of similar clips showed, some with Morgan, some with Tilly and some of you by yourself. Always in the same spot, camera balanced on the sink with the plastic test upside down just in shot as you counted down with the viewers.
Unfortunately, every test had the same increasingly devastating negative result once the timer was up.
And in each clip it was getting harder to mask the disappointment and heartbreak from flashing in your features as you flipped the plastic stick over.
âSo everyone keeps telling me I need to be relaxed and stop tryingâ you opened up the vlog from the passenger seat of Morganâs car.
âSo daddy back there,â the camera briefly panned to Morgan who could be seen, and heard, strapping Matilda into her car seat. âIs on a mission to help me relax, and heâs looked up healthy recipes that are meant to promote fertility⌠however the idea of a boneless banquet is really appealing right now.â
âHey,â Morgan calls from behind you, âIf momma wants kfc we can get kfc, forget the vegetables for a day. Itâs self care, innit?â
âTilly will be two soon and sheâs not got a baby sibling yet.â you mutter.
âWe see the doctor next week, donât get too in your head about it readerâ He spoke softly as he got behind the wheel, one of his hands reaching out to cup your face. âI donât think little lady is too bothered stealing all our attention for herself at the minute anyway.â
Almost to prove his point Matilda started shouting for attention from the back seat.
The camera was wobbling as you cried in Matildaâs dark nursery, only the soft glow of her nightlight illuminating the room.
âI feel like such a fraudâ you sobbed, âI already have the most perfect baby right there! But every time itâs just one line there I feel a grief for something that never existed.â
Tilly was asleep in her cot, now taking up much more space at 22 months old. She had her arm and leg outstretched to her side as she lay on her tummy, the same way Morgan slept wrapped around you every night.
âThe doctor said Iâve got unexplained infertility, medically I should be able to give Tilly a sibling⌠my body just wonâtâ you harshly rubbed at your face to get rid of the tear tracks. âI donât know why Iâm so upset because at least I get to be her mummy, and being her mum really is my favourite thing ever.â
You were looking solemnly at your sleeping daughter as you cried, taking in her soft features while she slept.
âIt was so easy with her, we didnât even have to try! I was on the pill and we still somehow got herâ you whispered towards the camera. âI started this vlog ten months ago⌠which realistically isnât even that long ago but, part of me expected to be about to give birth or already have a newborn by now... Maybe I was dumb for thinking that itâd happen so quickly?â
Nervous laughter followed your sentence as your fingers anxiously twisted through the ends of your hair.
âAnyway I should probably go to bed before Morgan wakes up and comes looking for me, if he sees me crying over our sleeping daughter again he might think Iâm crazyâ
The frame shook as you stood up, using the sleeve of your hoodie to wipe the remaining tears away as you smiled gently into the lens.
âTo clarify I donât cry over her a lot, but mums will know those first few weeks of having a newborn and post partum emotions sometimes you do be crying during the night feeds because you canât believe you actually created a cuter perfect mini version of your feral ginger boyfriendâ
The next clip opened mid conversation.
ââdonât think I can piss on another stick this month actually,â you muttered, phone balanced against the bathroom mirror instead of the usual spot on the sink.
Morganâs laugh came from somewhere behind the camera.
âBit difficult to know if youâre pregnant then, innit?â
You rolled your eyes weakly, though the joke barely landed this time. Tilly, now fully in her Iâm two and Iâm the boss now era, banged tiny hands against the bathroom door from the hallway.
âMummyyyy!â
âOne second baby!â You pinched the bridge of your nose before looking back toward the lens.
âI justâŚâ your shoulders lifted helplessly. âI already know what itâs gonna say before I even check.â
Morgan appeared in the reflection behind you then, quieter than usual as he wrapped his arms around your waist from behind.
âYou donât know for sure, babe.â
You didnât answer. The clip cut before the timer finished.
Another clip, another month. The camera wasnât even steady this time, just loosely held in your hand as you sat in bed, the room bathed in the soft, blue light of your phone screen.
âWe didnât film the test,â you said quietly. Behind you, Morgan was dead to the world, face down across the mattress with one arm hanging limply off the edge of the bed.
âI dunno. It just felt a bitâŚâ You shrugged, your gaze dropping to your lap. âSad.â You took a breath, forcing a lighter, brighter tone as you looked back into the lens.
âBut! On the bright side, apparently stress is the enemy, so Morganâs officially banned me from watching my missing children documentaries.â
Half-asleep, Morganâs muffled, gravelly voice drifted across the room, barely audible.
âYou were scaring yourself, Trouble.â
âYou snore like a lawnmower, you knobhead.â You rolled your eyes, a small, genuine smile tugging at your lips.
âYou still shag me though,â he mumbled into the pillow, not even bothering to lift his head.
That finally pulled a real, unforced laugh from you, the tension in your shoulders dropping for the first time all day.
The camera sat on the coffee table, capturing the scene from a low, slightly awkward angle â the way it always did lately.
Tilly was in the middle of a serious, high-stakes operation. Sheâd wrapped one of Morganâs hoodies around her doll and she was currently pacing the rug, shushing the air with the frantic intensity only a two-year-old is capable of.
âDaddy get me a real babyâ Tilly chirped, coming to a stop in front of Morgan. âI share my Pooh-bear!â
You didn't look at the camera; you were too busy trying to keep your expression neutral. You glanced over at Morgan. He was sat on the rug in front of her, halfway through building a tower of blocks, but his hands had gone still.
"A real one, eh?" Morgan said, his voice soft as he spoke to your daughter. He didn't look at you, just kept his eyes on Tilly, though his grip on a wooden block was a little too tight.
Tilly nodded enthusiastically, nearly tripping over the oversized hoodie pooled around her ankles.
âYeah! Tiny baby.â She held her hands up dramatically to demonstrate. âThisssss big.â
Morgan let out a quiet hum, the kind he did lately whenever he was trying very hard to sound normal.
âAnd what if the baby cries all night, hmm?â he asked, reaching out to steady her before she face planted into the blocks. âWhat then?â
âI sing!â she announced confidently.
âOh yeah?â His mouth twitched faintly. âReckon thatâll work?â
Tilly nodded with the unwavering confidence only toddlers possessed before toddling over to you instead, shoving the doll into your lap.
âYou practice mummy.â
Your breath caught so subtly the camera probably didnât even pick it up. Morgan looked up then, just for a second. Neither of you said anything but, there was something exhausted in his expression now. Something carefully controlled.
You forced a smile for Tillyâs sake, adjusting Morganâs hoodie around the doll automatically.
âYeah?â you whispered, eyes burning suddenly as you cradled the doll against your chest.
The room went quiet except for the soft sound of Cocomelon playing faintly from the TV.
Morgan cleared his throat after a moment, dropping the block back onto the rug with a dull clack.
âCâmere monkey,â he said gently, opening his arms toward Tilly. âDaddy needs help building this tower before mummy starts crying at cartoons again.â
âI donât cry at cartoonsâ you muttered defensively, swiping quickly beneath one eye. Morganâs eyes flickered toward you briefly.
âYou cried at that bluey episode for forty five minutes.â
âMummy say bad word.â Tilly gasped dramatically, pointing at you.
Morgan barked out a startled laugh while you buried your face in the doll for a second, mortified
âNot that kind of bad word, baby,â he managed between laughs, reaching to scoop Tilly into his lap.
The camera kept recording for another few seconds.
Morgan pressing absent kisses into Tillyâs hair while she squirmed in his arms. You sat curled against the sofa clutching the doll a little too tightly.
And despite the laughter that had softened the moment, Morgan still looked at you the same way he always did lately, like he was trying to figure out how to carry heartbreak for the both of you.
The camera is propped on the dresser, filming you as you haphazardly stack boxes of toddler shoes. You pause, leaning against the dresser, looking directly into the lens.
"Were doing the bed transition, right? And Morgan is doing the 'supportive dad' thing, trying to make it a big, happy event. But I hate it! I really thought thereâd be a baby ready to move into her cot when she was ready to move out of it."
You sighed as you busied yourself with reorganising the bookcase, replacing the books with far more force than required. The hardbacks thudding against the wood filling the short silence.
âAnd people keep saying to us when they see the three us together itâs a âperfect timeâ to give her a sibling, total strangers too by the way. As if I donât know. As if I havenât been wanting to give her a sibling since she was like 6 months old!â
You stop, one book held mid-air, and let out a sharp, incredulous laugh.
âItâs like they think weâre just... not doing it? Or that weâre waiting for the 'right vibe'? I swear, if one more person tells me to 'not think about it and just have a drunk night together,' I might actually lose the plot.â
You shove the book into the shelf, the movement sharp and jagged. You look back at the camera, your voice dropping to that hushed, secretive tone.
âI used to love the spontaneity of it, you know? With Morgan? Like we all have eyes heâs so attractive, heâs my best friend â it used to be the best part of our day. But now? Iâm all âWill this position help with conception?â or âQuick! sheâs napping, weâve got at least 10 minutes, Iâm ovulating.â Itâs not even fun anymore. Itâs like a shift.â
You lean back against the shelf, looking defeated.
âItâs good because itâs with him, obviously. But I dread it. I can see the dread in his face, too, which somehow makes it worse. Itâs like weâre both just performing. I look at him and I know heâs only doing it because he knows how much I want this, and heâs trying to be the âgood husband.â And Iâm only doing it because an app told me itâs the âoptimal day.ââ
You rub a hand over your eyes, your voice thick.
âI miss being a wife who just⌠wanted her husband. Iâm so tired of being a patient who needs a result. Does that make me a bad mum? For wanting more when Iâve already got the most perfect little thing in the other room? I feel like Iâm constantly mourning a life I don't even have, while trying to ignore the guilt of not being happy enough with the life I do have.â
You walk toward the camera, your movements slower now, the initial rush of anger replaced by that hollow, creeping exhaustion. You lean in, your face filling the frame, eyes reddened and tired.
âThe worst part is that I know heâs hurting too. But heâs so busy trying to keep the fun version of himself alive for me that heâs forgotten how to just be sad.â
You let out a shaky breath, your gaze dropping to the floor. The silence in the room is absolute now, no toddler giggles, no Morgan, just the hum of the camera.
âAnyway. Thatâs enough. Iâm making this a pity party, arenât I?â You sniff, rubbing your nose with the back of your hand and forcing a bright, brittle tone that doesn't reach your eyes. âTilly needs her snack and Iâve got a big girl room to finish tidying. Life goes on, right?â
The camera flickers on shakily, still blurry before focusing on the bathroom sink. Youâre standing there in one of Morganâs oversized hoodies, nervously twisting your hair. Morgan is beside you, half-asleep, his ginger hair sticking up in every direction, squinting through heavy eyes.
âIâm five days late,â you breathe into the quiet room. âI didnât want to say anything⌠I thought if I said it out loud, my period would start out of spite.â
âBit rude of your uterus, that,â he murmurs. Itâs almost a laugh, but it doesn't quite reach his eyes.
You offer a weak smile, but it vanishes as quickly as it appeared. Morgan rubs a hand down his face, his expression sharpening as the reality settles in.
âHave you looked yet?â
You shake your head. âIâm scared to.â
The words land heavy. After eighteen months, the fear isn't just about disappointment anymore; itâs about that familiar, hollow humiliation of the negative result.
âWeâll do it together,â Morgan says. He starts pacing â just short, jagged laps across the tiny floor before stopping right beside you.
âYouâre stressing me out,â you mutter, your gaze fixed on the white plastic test sitting on the edge of the sink.
âYou think Iâm not stressed?â
âYou never get stressed anymore.â The words slip out before you can stop them. Morgan goes quiet. Itâs true â over the last year and a half, heâd stopped letting himself believe enough to feel the nerves. Heâd built a wall of stoicism to protect you both.
He lets out a slow, steadying breath and reaches for the test, handling it carefully, as if it might shatter under his touch.
You donât look at the stick. You watch his face. You see the confusion hit, then the disbelief, and finally, something dangerously close to hope.
âMorgan?â your voice is a whisper.
âThereâs⌠thereâs something there.â He turns the test toward you, his hand trembling slightly.
The line is faint, fainter than a heartbeat, but it is there. A distinct, stubborn slash of color against the white.
Your hand flies to your mouth. Morgan lets out a startled, breathless laugh.
âTold you your uterus was just being dramatic.â
âOh my god,â you choke out, tears flooding your vision. Morgan is staring at the test as if itâs the most offensive, beautiful thing heâs ever seen.
âThatâs a line,â he says, his voice thick with wonder. âThatâs actually a line.â
You start to sob, laughing through the mess of it as Morgan grabs your face with both hands, his thumbs catching your tears.
âHey, hey, donât cry yet, we donâtââ
âI canât help it!â
âYouâre gonna make me cry, and Iâm meant to be the emotionally stable one.â
âYouâve never been emotionally stable,â you sniff, a watery laugh escaping you.
âThat is slander.â He kisses you then. Hard, desperate and smiling against your mouth.
Downstairs, the sound of tiny footsteps thuds against the floor, followed by Tillyâs muffled yell for breakfast. Reality rushes back in.
The next clip opens in absolute darkness. The only sound is your jagged, hitching breathing as you struggle to balance the camera on your knees.
Morgan is sat beside you, anchoring you to his side, his lips pressed softly against your hairline.
Above you, caught in the faint glow of the cameraâs light, sits the graveyard of your efforts: a pack of tampons, a bottle of fertility vitamins and a box of unused ovulation tests.
âSo⌠she got her period during the night,â Morgan explains softly.
Youâre crying into his shoulder, your body shaking with a heartbreak so deep it feels exhausting.
Morganâs hand rests firmly on your back, rubbing slow, steady circles. He doesnât tell you itâll be okay. He doesnât tell you to stop crying. He just holds you in the dark, and for the first time, he doesn't look like heâs trying to keep the âfunâ version of himself alive.
The camera is propped up on the edge of the bathroom sink â not for a test this time, just because habit makes you reach for it whenever things feel too heavy to hold alone.
Youâre sat on the edge of the bath in one of Morganâs hoodies, fingers twisting at the ends of your hair. The bathroom light is dim, casting tired shadows beneath your eyes.
âSo,â you say eventually, voice quieter than usual. âWe had a talk.â You swallow hard. âAnd I think⌠weâre done trying.â
The words donât sound real out loud, like they belong to somebody else. From somewhere downstairs, Tillyâs laugh echoes faintly through the house followed by the sound of the Bluey theme tune. It makes your expression crumple for half a second before you pull it back together.
âWeâre not buying ovulation tests anymore,â you continue softly. âOr pregnancy tests. I deleted the tracking apps.â A weak laugh leaves you. âWhich honestly felt a bit like deleting a tiny little dictator whoâd been ruining my life for a 20 months.â You rub tiredly at your face.
âI just canât keep doing the cycle of convincing myself every month is different and then feeling stupid when it isnât.â The camera shakes slightly as you adjust it.
âAnd I miss my husband.â The confession comes out barely above a whisper. âNot physically, I mean heâs literally downstairs making dinosaur nuggets with our toddlerââ
A faint THEYâRE FUCKIN BURNT! echoes from downstairs. Despite yourself, your mouth twitches.
âBut I miss us. I miss kissing him without thinking about ovulation windows. I miss him touching me without both of us silently wondering if maybe thisâll finally be the time it works.â Your eyes start filling before you can stop them. âI miss when we were just stupidly obsessed with each other.â
The bathroom door creaks open then and Morgan appears, ketchup bottle in hand and a tea towel flung over his shoulder.
âLanguage,â he shouts automatically down the stairs before looking at you properly. His face changes instantly, the sauce bottle gets abandoned on the sink. âOh, Trouble.â
âNo, itâs okay. Iâm okay.â You shake your head quickly, embarrassed by the tears now falling, but your voice cracks on the last word.
Morgan crouches in front of you immediately, hands settling on your knees.
âYou donât have to do that with me.â
And thatâs what finally breaks you because he sounds tired too. Not frustrated, not angry, just tired in that deep, aching way people get when theyâve carried hope for too long.
âI think I need us back,â you whisper.
Morganâs face folds a little at that. His thumbs brush under your eyes gently.
âYou never lost us.â
âFeels like I did.â You let out a small sob-laugh. He leans forward then, resting his forehead against yours.
âWe made her,â he says quietly. âGot our tiny little psychopath downstairs singing the Bluey theme tune at chicken nuggets. Think we did alright, Princess.â
That gets a real laugh out of you through the tears.
Downstairs, Tilly suddenly screeches âMUMMY I NEED KETCHUP!â Morgan closes his eyes briefly.
âSee?â he mutters. âDream life.â
You laugh again, shakier this time, and he kisses your forehead softly. The camera keeps rolling a little longer.
Just long enough to catch the way Morgan stays kneeling between your legs even after the conversation ends, holding your hands like heâs terrified that if he lets go, youâll disappear into the grief again.
The camera is propped against a stack of laundry on the table, slightly crooked. The living room is a landscape of chaosâ toys, mismatched socks and half eaten snacks.
Tilly is sprawled across the rug, surrounded by a mountain of stationery she definitely doesn't need yet. She holds up a glittery pencil case like sheâs presenting a legal document.
âMummy,â she says with grave seriousness. âThis for important business.â
âWhat business?â you ask, your voice coming from behind the camera, warm and unhurried.
âMy important business.â Tilly shrugs, unbothered.
Morgan snorts from the dining table. Heâs hunched over, painstakingly ironing name labels into tiny school cardigans.
âSheâs definitely your child.â
âShe screams when the people on tv donât do what she wants, Morgan.â You deadpan. âSheâs yours.â
âThatâs necessary, that is.â
âYouâre ridiculous.â
The camera catches Morgan grinning. A real, full-blown grin, the kind thatâs been rare through the video. Youâre sat beside him, folding tiny socks into pairs. You arenât rushing, you aren't checking a clock or a phone app, youâre just there.
âTills,â Morgan calls out after a minute, holding a polo shirt up like evidence in a courtroom. âYouâre too little for this. Stop growing.â
âIâm big girl now!â she shouts, jumping up to prove it and immediately tripping over the oversized backpack she insisted on wearing.
You burst into laughter. Morgan doesn't even flinch he just reaches out, grabbing her by the hood of her jumper and hauling her upright in one practiced motion.
âTiny drunk person.â
âMummy! Daddy being rood!â Tilly gasps, dramatically.
âYou literally fell over air, babyâ you say, wiping a tear from your eye.
âShe gets that from you as well,â Morgan mutters, you kick his shin under the table. âOw! Domestic violence in front of the child.â
âYeah, Mummy! Vile-ence!â Tilly claps her hands.
You laugh until your sides ache, the camera shaking slightly as you lean back against your chair. The room feels full. Not because thereâs another heartbeat in the house and not because the ache of the last two years has vanished but because youâve stopped living in a waiting room.
Morgan glances over at you. His eyes linger, watching you laugh, his expression softening.
âYou alright?â he asks. The question is simple, stripped of the loaded fear it used to carry. You look around the room. The half-ironed clothes, the glitter pens scattered like confetti and the man who, despite everything, is still your best friend.
âYeah,â you say softly, and you mean it. âI really am.â
The camera continues to roll, capturing the way Morganâs gaze doesnât leave your face. His expression shifts; that guarded, supportive wall heâs been keeping up for months finally drops, replaced by a slow, knowing smirk.
âYou look nice,â he says, his voice dropping just a notch. âLike, actually nice. Not just mummy nice.â
You lean back, arching a brow at him, catching that familiar, mischievous glint in his eyes that you haven't seen in ages.
âAnd you,â you tease, resting your chin on your palm, âlook like youâre trying to start something.â
Morgan smirks as he kicks his chair back, the legs scraping against the floorboards, and he leans into your space not quite kissing you, but close enough that the air between you feels charged.
âMaybe I am,â he murmurs. âI think Iâve been a very patient man lately. Don't you?â
You laugh, a light, airy sound, and give his arm a playful shove.
âOh, have you? Is that what weâre calling it? Youâve been a nightmare, more like.â
He laughs, the sound genuine and unburdened. He reaches out, his hand sliding across the table to cover yours, his thumb tracing the back of your knuckles.
âA nightmare, huh? Just wait until Iâm off the clock, then youâll see.â
Tilly lets out a loud, frustrated grunt from the rug as she struggles with her pencil case zipper.
âMummy! Help!â
You tear your gaze away from him to look at Tilly, but you donât pull your hand out from under his. Youâre still grinning, that flirty, knowing look still plastered on your face.
âIn a second, Tills.â you call out, your voice bright, though your eyes go right back to Morgan.
He leans in a little closer, his voice dropping to a low, intimate murmur thatâs meant just for you, even if the camera is recording.
âDonât worry about the uniform labels,â he whispers, his eyes shimmering with cheeky intensity as he looks you up and down. âI think weâve got more important business to focus on for today.â
You feel your cheeks flush and you let out a shaky, breathless laugh. You give his hand a squeeze, leaning into him just enough to feel the solid warmth of his shoulder against yours.
âYouâre ridiculous,â you breathe, though youâre looking at him like heâs the only thing in the room.
Morgan just grins, that smug, familiar spark back in his eyes. He taps your hand twice before finally standing up to go help Tilly, but he leaves a lingering touch on your shoulder as he passes, his fingers brushing the back of your neck in a way that feels like a promise.
âGo on then,â he says, glancing back at you over his shoulder with a wink. âGo be a mum. Iâll be back for you in five.â
You watch him walk away, laughing to yourself, the knot in your chest completely gone. You reach for the camera, not with the frantic energy of someone trying to hide something, but with the relaxed, happy smile of a woman who finally has her life back.
You give the camera a final, playful smirk, and with a soft click, the screen goes black.
The camera is propped on the bathroom counter. Youâre in a black bodycon dress, hair curled, mid-laugh while fixing your lipstick. Youâre holding glass of rosĂŠ looking relaxed and loose.
âRight,â you say to the lens, giggling. âIâm literally about to head out to meet the girls, but I promised myself Iâd bin this last pregnancy test first. Iâm having a massive cupboard clear-out. Between nursery germs, new allergies and me catching every single bug Tilly brings home, Iâve honestly never gone to the doctors so much in my LIFE. Iâm reclaiming my space.â
You tear the packaging open with your teeth, still laughing as you prepare the test.
âI know itâs negative. Iâm not even going to look at it, iâm just going to do the thing, toss it and not be a mum for the night.â Your tone is still cheerful as you talk to the viewers. âSuppose itâs a good ending though isnât it? The final test, weâre happy with where we are so I can end the video now.â
You lean over, do your thing and casually set it on the edge of the sink. You turn back to the camera, picking up your drink, totally unfazed.
âSo, yeah. Tonight is purely for cocktails and complaining about the nursery mums and I am so ready for it. Iâll update you when Iâm â wait.â
You pause, mid-sip as your eyes caught the test. You freeze, leaning in, squinting as your brow furrowed in complete confusion.
âNo⌠thatâs not right.â
You reach out and pick up the stick, holding it up to the bathroom light. You tilt your head, turning the stick from side to side.
âThatâs⌠thatâs a line,â you whisper, your voice deadpan. âThatâs definitely a line.â
You look at the test, then at the camera, then back at the test. You let out a short, disbelieving laugh.
âWell. Thatâs inconvenient.â You walk to the bathroom door, still holding the test, wine glass in the other hand.
âMorgan?â you call out, your voice perfectly steady. âYou need to come here for a second. I think Iâve just ruined my night out.â
âWhat you mean? Youâve planned it for weeks, Iâve told you me and monkey will beââ Morgan wanders into the frame, stopping mid-sentence when he sees you holding the test. âWhatâs that? You said you were binning it, princess.â
You just hold it out to him, still holding your glass.
âI know. I was. But apparently Iâm not broken.â
Morgan looks at the stick, then at you. His eyes go wide, then he starts to chuckle, shaking his head. He doesn't even go for in for a hug, he just takes the test, looking at it with a mix of shock and amusement.
âYouâre having a laugh, arenât you?â
âI wish I was,â you say, finally setting the drink down on the counter. âI was really looking forward to shots and bad decisions.â
You both just stand there, staring at the little piece of plastic and then you start to giggle again.
âWell,â Morgan says, a slow, dazed smile spreading across his face. âI suppose youâre not going to the pub then.â
You look at him, the humor of the situation finally sinking in. You burst out laughing, a genuine, confused, happy sound.
Morgan steps closer, his gaze drifting from the stick to your face, his usual smirk replaced by a look of dazed, utter disbelief. He gently takes the glass of rosĂŠ from your hand and sets it down next to the test, as if itâs suddenly a dangerous object.
âThink weâre done with this for now too.â He reaches out, tucking a loose curl behind your ear, his touch lingering on your cheek. âYouâre actually serious? Itâs not one of those⌠dented lines or whatever you used to call them?â
âItâs a line, squish,â you say, your voice vibrating with that same disbelieving laughter. âA very dark, very night out ruining line. I barely put it down before it showed upâ
He lets out a short, incredulous huff of air and pulls you into him, his arms wrapping around your waist. He doesnât squeeze too hard, he just holds you there, looking over your shoulder at the sink like he expects the test to have vanished by the time he looks back.
âWe literally just decided to stop,â he mutters into your hair, sounding both winded and amused. âWe were one and done. And now â and now youâre telling me thereâs a tiny little squatter on the way?â
You laugh, a wet, shaky sound as the reality starts to bleed through the shock. You lean your head against his chest, feeling his heart hammering against his ribs, just as fast as yours.
âI know. I was literally about to put on my heels, have a tequila and forget that I have responsibilities.â You look up at him, your eyes crinkling at the corners.
Morganâs expression softens, that familiar, cheeky light returning to his eyes. He leans down, pressing a lingering, soft kiss to your forehead.
âSo,â he says, his voice dropping to a low, amused rasp. âYouâre telling me that after two years of temperature tracking, calendar alerts and enough ovulation tests to build a small house⌠I get you pregnant the second you plan a night out that involves shots?â
âItâs the timing, isn't it?â You burst out laughing, the sound slightly hysterical. âItâs genuinely insulting, Tilly has been extra testing this week I needed a girls night.â
He shakes his head, a wide, disbelieving grin spreading across his face. He doesnât reach for a dramatic embrace instead, he just leans his hip against the vanity, looking at you with that familiar, cheeky glint.
âYou know what this means, donât you? Youâre going to have to go to the pub with the girls, order a coke, and pretend youâre having the time of your life while they get absolutely hammered.â
âDonât.â You groan, dropping your forehead onto his shoulder. âIâll have to listen to Heather talk about her sex life while Iâm sat there sober and fully aware sheâs talking about MIKEY. Itâs a tragic existence, Morgan. Truly tragic.â
He chuckles, his hand finding the small of your back and pulling you flush against him. The intimacy of it makes your heart ache in the best way.
âYou could always just text them,â he suggests, his thumb brushing slow, lazy circles against your dress. âTell them youâve been struck down by a mysterious, tiny, very inconvenient virus.â
You look up at him, your eyes crinkling. The sheer, absurd irony of it all is finally sinking in.
âYou mean tell them Iâm âpregnant and suffering from a sudden intolerance to funâ?â
âExactly that, yeah.â Morgan snorts quietly, leaning down until his forehead knocks gently against yours. âTerminal condition. Symptoms include cancelling girls nights and becoming violently sober.â
You laugh again, soft and helpless now, your fingers twisting in the fabric of his t-shirt as the reality starts settling properly between you.
The house is quiet around you. Tilly had gone to bed an hour ago after demanding three stories, one yoghurt and exactly seven kisses. Her little nightlight glows faintly beneath the crack of her bedroom door down the hall.
âOh my god,â you whisper again, but this time it sounds less shocked and more terrified to believe it.
Morganâs eyes flick between you and the test like he still thinks one of them might disappear if he looks away too long.
âWe literally gave up,â he says quietly, almost laughing again. âLike properly gave up.â
âI know.â
âYou deleted the apps.â
âI know.â
âYou bought wine.â
âI KNOW.â
That finally breaks him. A real laugh escapes him, startled and disbelieving and so painfully happy it makes your throat ache.
Then suddenly heâs covering his face with one hand, shoulders shaking once as he looks down at the stick again.
âYouâre pregnant,â he says, muffled behind his palm.
Your eyes instantly burn the way he says it gets you, like after two years he never actually thought heâd get to say it again.
You step closer without thinking and Morgan immediately reaches for you, both hands settling on your waist like muscle memory.
For a second neither of you speaks he just stares at you, at your face, your dress, your curled hair, the glass of rosĂŠ abandoned beside the sink.
At the woman heâd spent nearly two years trying to convince he loved regardless of what her body could or couldnât do.
âYou know whatâs mental?â he says softly.
âWhat?â
âYouâre standing there looking all pretty ready for a girls night and I genuinely think this is the sexiest youâve ever been.â
âMorgan.â You let out a watery laugh.
âIâm serious.â His thumbs brush slowly against your waist. âYouâve looked heartbroken for so long and now you justâŚâ He shakes his head slightly, eyes glassy. âYou look like you again.â
âWAIT!â You look up at him, smile infectious. âWe have to tell Tilly⌠would we be the worst parents ever if we woke her up?â
Morgan blinks at you for a second, still looking shell-shocked. ââŚProbably,â he says honestly. You burst out laughing again, grabbing at his arms.
âIâm serious! She asked for a baby for like six months straight, sheâs gonna lose her mind.â
âSheâs also three and itâs half eight at night,â he points out, though heâs already smiling now. âSheâll wake up, ask for âa mummy snackâ and then tell us itâs morning time cause sheâs already been to sleep.â
âThatâs still a valid reaction.â
Morgan shakes his head at you, smiling so hard now it looks almost painful. Like his face has forgotten how to hold this much happiness all at once.
âYouâre actually buzzing to wake a sleeping toddlerâ he mutters in disbelief.
âI really thought my body hated me.â Your eyes well up again as you let out a shaky breath.
âDonât say that.â
âBut I did.â Your voice cracks slightly. âFor ages, I did.â
Without hesitation, he pulls you into him again, one arm firm around your waist while the other cups the back of your head.
âYour body gave me Tilly,â he murmurs against your hair. âAnd now apparently itâs gone and done it again just to humble us.â
âYouâre such a knobhead.â A broken laugh escapes you against his chest.
âYeah, but Iâm your knobhead.â
You stay there for a second longer, wrapped around each other in the tiny bathroom before Morgan pulls back just enough to look at you properly again, blue eyes brighter than theyâve been in months.
âGo on then,â he says, a grin creeping back onto his face. âLetâs go wake the tiny dictator.â
Your gasp is immediate. âYou said no!â
âI changed my mind.â He shrugs. âThis is arguably bigger than bedtime.â
You beam at him so brightly it almost knocks the breath out of him.
âOh my god, sheâs gonna be the BEST big sister.â
Can u do a dad!ginge fic where his gf has gone away for the weekend and he has a daughter whose 2-3 years old and she has curly ginger hair and he thought he would nip on stream before he went out so he got her ready on stream and ppl kept commenting being shocked how he could do a cute hairstyle (half up plaits maybe) and his gf sees it being clipped and finds it really cute
Hey! I loved this! Thank you so much for this request! Keep em coming guys im starting to run out of them now lol
Ginge wasnt planning on doing a proper live. It was supposed to be a quick thing. Five minutes. Nip on, say hello, tell chat heâd be off for the weekend âcause you were away and he was on full-time dad duty, then log off and take his daughter out to the park.
That was the plan.
Unfortunately, your 3 year old daughter was currently standing in front of him in nothing but a nappy and a T-shirt, curly ginger hair sticking out in every possible direction, holding one of his hoodies and chanting, âDaddy. Help. Hair.â
So now he was live.
The camera clicked on to reveal Morgan sitting on his gaming chair, hoodie sleeves rolled up, a tiny girl perched between his knees on the floor, back to the camera. Her hair was a soft halo of copper curls, springy and wild.
Chat instantly exploded.
âGINGE???â
âWHY IS THERE A SMALL HUMANâ
âIS THAT UR KID???â
âSHEâS GINGER đâ
Morgan squinted at the screen. âAlright, calm down. Yeah. This is my daughter. Her mumâs gone away for the weekend, so itâs just us, surviving"
The little girl tilted her head back to look up at him. âPlaits?â
âYeah, plaits,â he said patiently, grabbing the brush. âIâm doinâ it.â
Chat went feral.
âYOU CAN DO HAIR???â
âGINGE DAD ERAâ
âBRO HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT HALF UP PLAITS AREâ
He snorted. âWhat do you mean how do I know? Iâve got eyes. And YouTube. And her mum showed me, like, once.â
He started carefully brushing through the curls, tongue poking out slightly in concentration. He was gentle surprisingly so one hand steadying her head, the other working through knots like heâd done it a hundred times before. Which he had.
The girl hummed happily, swinging her feet and occasionally trying to turn around.
âNo, no, stay still, bug,â he murmured. âIf you move Iâm gonna mess it up and then Mumâll roast me when she gets back.â
Chat noticed everything.
âTHE WAY HEâS TALKING TO HER đâ
âGINGE YOUâRE ACTUALLY GOOD AT THISâ
âTHIS IS THE SOFTEST IâVE EVER SEEN YOUâ
He scoffed. âRelax. Iâm not soft. Iâm efficient.â
He separated the top section of her hair and began plaiting, fingers surprisingly nimble. One plait, then the other, securing them neatly at the back in a little half-up style.
When he finished, he leaned back and tilted her gently towards the camera.
âThere. Look.â
The girl beamed, wide smile, curls bouncing. She waved enthusiastically at the screen.
âHello!â
Chat absolutely lost it.
âIâM SOBBINGâ
âSHEâS PERFECTâ
âGINGE UR WINNING AT LIFEâ
Morganâs ears went red. âAlright, alright, enough. Sheâs got shoes to put on and weâre goinâ out, yeah?â
He pressed a kiss to the top of her head without even thinking about it.
The clip was everywhere within minutes.
You were sitting in your hotel room later that evening, scrolling mindlessly while waiting for your food to arrive, when you saw it.
A clipped video.
âDad!Ginge gets his daughter ready on stream đĽšâ
Your heart actually stuttered. You tapped it.
There he was. Your boyfriend. In his hoodie. Focused and careful and soft in a way the internet almost never got to see. Your daughter sitting between his knees, trusting him completely.
You watched the plaits take shape, watched the way he spoke to her calm, warm, endlessly patient. And when he kissed her head?
You covered your mouth, eyes burning. You immediately FaceTimed him.
He answered with a confused, âYou alright?â
You turned the camera on yourself, smiling like an idiot. âI saw the clip.â
He froze. âOh. That.â
âThat,â you said softly, âwas the cutest thing Iâve ever seen.â
He glanced down at your daughter, who was currently lining up toy cars on the floor. âShe asked for plaits.â
âI know,â you said, voice thick. âAnd you did them perfectly.â
He shrugged, trying to play it cool. âWasnât that hard.â
You laughed. âYou went viral for being a good dad.â
He groaned. âDonât say it like that.â
But when your daughter climbed into his lap and leaned her head against his chest, his arm wrapped around her automatically, you saw the smile he couldnât quite hide.
âMiss you,â he added quietly.
You smiled back. âMiss you too. Youâre doing amazing.â And for once, he didnât argue.
Morgan and his girlfriend find out if their baby is a boy or a girl.
a/n: low-key just locked in and wrote a fic? Not a request just had a dream about this x
Warnings: none, pure fluff.
The piece of paper had been burning a hole in you bag since you got it. You didnât want to do one of those big parties with a balloon or a cake, you just wanted something together, just you.
When you got home, you b-lined straight for the sofa, you were just over 20 weeks pregnant now and things were starting to ache and tiredness consumed your body constantly. It had become a routine when you both got home, you would get off your feet as quick as possible and Morgan would go and make you both a cuppa.
Pregnancy had made you more impatient anyway, but waiting for him to make that cup of tea, the envelope containing your babyâs gender sitting in front of you made you so incredibly impatient.
After what felt like 5 years, Morgan casually strolled in, mugs in hand - you wouldnât guess that this is the same man who has been desperate to find out the babyâs gender since you found out you were pregnant.
He sat down next to you, you instinctively moving closer, almost sat on top of him, one leg over his the other under you.
âAre you ready?â You said excitedly, you truly could not wait, you were almost bouncing.
âYeah, Iâm ready.â He said with a small laugh.
You took the envelope, holding it in your hands. Your hands were shaking and for a second you just stared at the small white envelope.
âOkay, final bets - boy or girl?â You said with a deep breath.
âGirl.â He said, he had been so sure from the start that the baby inside of you were a girl, not once even thinking itâs a boy. You were convinced that even if it was going to be a boy, somehow he will have managed to change the baby into a girl.
âStill sure?â You grinned. My god this man was so stubborn, god help you when this baby gets older.
âYep, Iâm telling you love, sheâs told me.â
You could only laugh at the man sat next to you, as much as you joked about how you might be doomed if your baby inherits some of their dadâs traits, like the shouting at 3am, ypu hoped every night that this baby would be like their dad.
âWhy you doubting me darlinâ? What do you think it is?â He smirked.
âI donât know, I keep changing - I mean I keep having dreams about a boy recently, so boy I guess? I donât know.â It was true, one week ypu were certain it was a girl, the next you were adamant it was a boy, you just truly couldnât make your mind up.
âWell good fucking job you donât get to pick, fucking hell.â Your boyfriend laughed.
âRight câmon, open it.â He was the one getting impatient now, he didnât care about what you thought the baby was really, he just wanted to know what the baby actually is.
âMe? Why am I opening it?â You said, shocked as if you werenât carrying this baby.
âWhat? Yes you? Youâre itâs mum?â He said confused.
âStop calling our baby âitâ!â You scolded.
âThen open the bloody envelope, so I donât have to?â Yeah this child was definitely going to get his sass, regardless of the gender.
âOkay. Okay.â You breathed, suddenly sat up straight.
You placed your hand on your small bump for a second taking a deep breath, you were just grateful your baby was healthy and growing.
You were shaking, excitement and nerves flooding your body. Opening the envelope with such delicately, you could feel your heart hammering against your chest. You could also feel your boyfriendâs eyes burning into you, impatient and desperate for you to hurry up and get on with it.
You took out the piece of paper, glancing up at the man staring at you, you took a deep breath and opened the piece of paper.
Your eyes filled with tears almost instantly as you read the word: girl.
A baby girl, you were having a daughter, a mini-you.
âReader? What is it? Tell me? Donât leave me hanging?â Your boyfriend said, almost shouting and holding your arm.
âItâs a girl.â You said showing him the paper.
âOH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! I KNEW IT! SEE SHE TOLD ME!â He screeched. Before you could fully react he was basically on top of you, careful to not pull his weight on you.
âWeâre having a baby girl, we have a daughter.â You could tell he was emotional and the slight wetness on your neck confirmed that.
He look up at you, eyes brimmed with tears, he kissed your face repeatedly.
âI love you and our girl so much.â He said quietly as he rested his forehead against yours.
âWe love you too, so so much.â You said, your own tears now flowing.
He moved down your body, his face now by your small bump.
âHi babygirl, itâs your dad and I love you and your mummy so much.â His voice cracking slightly, tears still streaming.
You truly wished you could stay in this moment forever, you had never loved this man so much - you loved how happy he was and how excited he was to be a dad, to your daughter.
It was a rarity that Morgan stayed at the Bov house, let alone with Seb and the Mrs. However Seb had fallen asleep earlier in Morganâs room so rather than waking him up and taking him back to the house, theyâd both made the decision to stay the night instead. Sheâd warned the boys that Seb was staying earlier that evening, she didnât expect them to keep it down in their own house but she knew theyâd be a bit more respectful knowing he was upstairs. Or so she thought.
It was noisy, so much so that she was convinced heâd wake up soon. Morgan was streaming but he kept coming to check on them both every so often, she was about to head to sleep aswell with it reaching midnight, knowing Seb would be up at around 7am.
âWhat? Police are at the door? Hang on chat.â Morgan stands from his streaming chair and heads downstairs. Thereâs shouting, the boys trying to ask whatâs happening and then Seb wakes up, screaming at the noise.
âShhh itâs ok darling.â She soothes him, but part of her is just as scared as him. Just as she reaches the top of the stairs in horror, everyoneâs talking over each other at once. âMorgan whatâs going on?â She looks at him, he can tell sheâs visibly scared as she clings to Seb whoâs cuddled into her chest.
âTheres 2 men with machetes down the road and weâve had reports someone here is severely injured, can we search your property please?â One of the police officers asks.
âWhat?!â She looks at Morgan, her face pale. Then the boys turn off their streams. Thatâs when she sees Mikeyâs face, a huge grin across his lips as he watches everyone panic.
âTays? What the fuck! Guys itâs Tays.â Chazza points out his face and everyone sighs in relief.
âIt was for the video! Itâs for the video! Sorry!â He holds up his hands in innocence.
âWhat?â She looks at him in disbelief, Seb now crying again clearly sensing the panic in the room. âYou did it for the video this morning?â
âYeah, this was better though. Shouldâve seen all your faces.â He laughs. The boys instantly know this hasnât quite worked out the way Mikey wanted it to.
Ginge looks at Mikey, then towards Seb whoâs screaming into his mums chest. âYou think thatâs fucking funny?â
âYouâre a fucking idiot Tays.â She heads back upstairs, tears in her own eyes at the overwhelm of the entire situation.
âMate, come on. Iâm sorry if Iâve upset Seb but it was just a prank.â Tays still has a smirk on his face.
âMorgan! Can you help me please?â The Mrs shouts from upstairs, needing some support with calming Seb down. Her shout came at the right time because Morganâs never felt so angry in his life and Tays was just about to get the brunt of it.
âYouâre an absolute pisstake. It was hard enough convincing her to come here with Seb never mind now.â Morgan shakes his head as he heads upstairs.
The boys stand around the front door awkwardly, listening to her and Morgan argue about the whole thing.
âWhat are you doing?â Morgan asks when he comes upstairs, youâre packing Sebâs things back into his bag.
âWeâre going home.â She says flatly.
âWhy?â
âWhy?!â She looks at him as if heâs mad. âYou think Iâm keeping my son here after that fucking performance? No chance Morgan and you shouldnât want me to either.â He can hardly blame her, heâs never seen her look so scared and stressed out.
âIâll come with you.â He says quickly but sheâs quick to decline.
âFinish your stream, Iâll see you tomorrow.â She picks up the bag and then Seb, leaving Morgan in the bedroom on his own. When she heads back downstairs, the boys are still where they were 5 minutes ago.
âYouâre leaving?â Tays asks.
âWhat do you think?â She answers smartly. âYou shouldâve fucking warned me Mikey, you knew Seb was here.â
âWell I didnât think heâd be scared, I didnât think heâd know what was happening.â
âCourse heâs scared, I was fucking scared.â She shouts, her protective instincts kicking in.
âRight, Iâm sorry but this is a fucking content house. Not a nursery.â Tays says bluntly. It makes Chazzaâs eyes widen in shock.
âMate thatâs-â Chazza wants to tell him heâs out of order, Sebâs always welcome at the Bov house and even Tays knew how important it was to Morgan that she felt welcomed there whenever she stayed.
âFuck off Mikey, youâre so inconsiderate, itâs actually embarrassing.â She shakes her head as she pushes past him and heads out the front door, getting into her car and driving back to their actual house.
Around an hour later, Tays goes to join Ginge in his streaming room but Morganâs quick to mute the mic. âWhat dâyou want?â He looks flatly at him.
âIâm sorry mate, I actually am.â
âYouâre not though, sheâs not gonna stay here now especially not with Seb.â He knew how stubborn she is, she was skeptical about allowing Seb to stay there at all.
âIâll apologise to her, I didnât think sheâd take it that badly to be fair. Weâre a content house, I just got carried away.â
âWell course sheâs gonna take it badly, thatâs her baby. Youâll get it when youâre a dad mate.â He sighs slightly. âIâm finishing this stream and going home but I appreciate your apology.â He nods as he unmutes and Mikey takes it as his cue to leave.
This took me so fricken long and I have no idea why. Anyway I hope you all enjoy :)
Poppy being in nursery for a few hours on a morning was obviously great for her development but it helped the Mrs out a few days a week too. And it really was helpful only after sheâd ensued the chaos that is a house with two small children getting ready for school.
âPoppy, put your shoes on please.âÂ
âŚ
âPoppy, shoes! Quickly!â
âŚ
âPOPPY PUT YOUR SHOES ON RIGHT NOW!â
Sebâs eyes widened as he strapped up his Velcro trainers, seeing heâs in no position to argue with his mum right now. She was in stressed out mum mode for sure. She looked at Sebâs face.
âDonât start.â With a deep breath, she ran a hand through her hair.Â
âMummy, I donât want to wear those ones!â Poppy rounded the corner, thankfully fully dressed curtesy of Morgan.
âPops, you wear those everyday come on.â Morgan followed shortly after her, also fully dressed and ready for a full day of filming.Â
âNo daddy! I donât like them! I want to wear these!â She pulls out her plastic princess style heels, the same ones that go with her Cinderella dress up set. Morgan canât help but laugh. Having a baby girl was so different to Seb growing up, he was so laid back.Â
âYou canât wear those. Nursery wonât let you.â The Mrs puts her trainers in front of the stairs, like she does every morning so Poppy can have her shoes put on. She picks Poppy up, who immediately begins to scream and cry before placing her on one of the steps. Of course, Morganâs phone begins to ring leaving her to fend for herself.Â
âTwo seconds love.â
âMummy!!! No!!!â She wriggles, trying to stand up.Â
âPoppy, you have to wear trainers darling or nursery wonât let you play. You want to play with the other children today donât you?â Although her patience was waring thin, somewhere within her the Mrs mustered up a sweet, calm voice to try and defuse the situation.Â
âNo!â Suddenly Poppy picks up one of her princess heels, throwing it straight at her mum in anger. It hits her square in the face and leaves her shocked. Her eyes watering. Even Seb gasps. Poppyâs cries stop, sheâs even surprised herself. And now she knows sheâs in big trouble.Â
It had been the same for weeks, a constant struggle with keeping a toddler happy 24/7. It was different with Seb. He was the only one they had to give their attention to at the time. But now with two small children, things were difficult.Â
âShoes on, you have 2 minutes.â Sheâd given up, walking off into the house. Her voice quiet. She had to take a minute before she completely lost her shit.Â
She hardly had a second for herself and even when the kids were at nursery/school, sheâd spend the day tidying after them. Lord knows the last time her and Morgan had some time completely on their own. With his streaming schedule, she was absolutely shattered by the time he got into bed.Â
âYeah, Iâll be there in 5-â Morganâs eyes widened when he saw her, tears threatening to overspill her eyes onto her face. âWhatâs up?â He pulled the phone back to his ear. âBehz mate Iâll ring you back.â He follows her until she locks herself in the bathroom upstairs.Â
âDaddy! Seb took my doll!â Poppy screams from downstairs, with a deep breath he decides to get them ready himself.Â
âPoppy made mum cry!â Seb shouts.
âNo I didnât! Stop saying that!â Poppy cries even harder, clearly feeling incredibly guilty.Â
âShe did dad. She threw her stupid princess heel at her face!âÂ
âThatâs out of order Poppy, you canât hurt people to get your own way.â Morgan speaks calmly. âYou especially donât hurt your mum, she loves you.âÂ
Poppy nods, not crying anymore but listening to what Morgan has to say.Â
âSorry daddy.â She hangs her head down, upset with herself.Â
âItâs your mum you should say sorry to Pops.â Â
âWhatâre you doing? Youâve got filming.â The Mrs appears in the doorway, watching Morgan strap Poppy into the car seat in the back of his car.Â
âDonât worry love, go and chill yeah?â He puts his hands on either side of her head and kisses her forehead.Â
âBut youâre going to be late-âÂ
âShush. We love you. See you later.â Heâs already getting in the car with a grin on his face.Â
âBye mummy!â Seb waves from the backseat.Â
The car ride consists mostly of silence, the radio playing quietly. Usually itâs chaos, Poppy and Seb arguing, the Mrs shouting at them both to stop.Â
âDaddy will you tell mummy I love her?â Poppy says quietly, in deep thought.Â
âCourse I will, she knows you do. You just need her show her more. We all do.â Morgan nods, making a mental note to buy some flowers on the way home.Â
After dropping both of the children off, he heads back home. Flowers in hand and a promise from his mum to babysit this Saturday. He shakes his head when he hears the washing machine door shut as he walks in.Â
âReader?â He walks further into the house and stops when he sees her folding up laundry at the dining table.Â
âI told you to chill out babe.â He smiles affectionately at her, walking over taking one of Sebâs t shirts from her hands and putting it on the table. He can see her bottom lip wobbling before she even begins to cry. âCome âere.â He pull her into his arms as she cries into his chest.
âI donât even know why Iâm crying.â She sobs, completely overwhelmed. âMaybe itâs my period or something.â She shakes her head, turning away and looking out of the window, trying to calm herself down.Â
âDoesnât have to be your period, you can be upset yâknow?â He wipes her eyes. âYouâve been running on empty for way too long love.â Heâd tried everything, this wasnât the first time sheâd broken down. She wasnât herself these days. Of course, heâd offered loads of help. Offered to move filming days around so that she could have the full day to herself, his mum had even offered to have them 1-2 days a week so they had some time together. But as stubborn as she is, sheâd refused. Said she was fine and got on with it.Â
âMumâs having them on Saturday.âÂ
âWhat-â
âAll day.âÂ
âBut Seb-â
âNo buts, stop worrying. Everythingâs going to be fine.âÂ
Sheâs not even sure she has the energy to think about it, let alone argue about it. So she nods and smiles, taking the flowers heâd been holding out to her.Â
âOk.âÂ
âYou do everything for us, so I thought Iâd take you outâŚâ He smirks, his hands sliding down her waist and landing on her arse. âBeen a while hasnât it love?â His hands squeeze as his lips kiss down her neck.Â
âM-Morgan.â She stutters out. âShouldnât you be at work?âÂ
âIâll take the fine if it means I can show my wife how much I appreciate her.â He says smugly, she gasps as he picks her up, her legs wrapping around his waist. Soon her back hits the cold wooden table as she lays back. His hands working quickly to get her knickers off. He smirks as soon as he sees sheâs wet, knowing exactly what she needs. âCanât believe how lucky I am.âÂ
Her breath hitches when his fingers touch her clit, soon slowly invading her hole as he moves two of them in and out of her. âMy wife, my fuckinâ gorgeous wife.âÂ
She canât help but moan, her walls clenching around him in pleasure. It had been forever since theyâd been intimate.Â
âHear how wet you are love?â He grins, she nods. Her cheeks blushed pink. âBeen so fucking long since I watched you cum. You gonna cum for me, hm?â He taunts, smirking as his fingers curl upwards inside of her.Â
âFuck!- y-yes, oh my god.âÂ
It had only taken a mere two minutes to get her right to the very edge.
âFuckinâ hell.â He watches her back arch off the table, her legs spread as she completely lets go. âGo on, let go love.âÂ
With a high pitched moan, her muscles tense up as her head goes back. Her eyes close and she instinctively closes her legs as she rides out her orgasm. He smirks, pulling his fingers out and sucking on each one. âUnbelievable.âÂ
Within a few minutes, she smiles at him, sitting up and stifling a laugh.Â
âThere it is, fucking gorgeous when you smile yâknow?â He kisses her lips, pushing her hair behind her ear. He looks down at his watch. âIâve got to go. Promise youâll just chill out? I better see all of those clothes exactly where they are when I get back.âÂ
She actually listens this time. She decides to enjoy the rare heatwave in Manchester and sunbathes in the garden, alternating between scrolling through her phone and reading her book until itâs time to pick the kids up.Â
Poppy runs out of school, a piece of coloured card in her hand. Glitter falling from the page as she sprints over to her mum.Â
âMummy! Mummy! I made you this!â She smiles proudly as she hands over the card. Tears fill the Mrs eyes once more as she reads it. Clearly itâs been hand written by an adult until the very bottom of the card where it says âPoppyâ at the bottom. The Ps backwards and her writing messy in the cutest way.Â
âTo mummy,Â
Iâm sorry for hurting you and being not nice this morning. I love you.
Love from, Poppy.âÂ
âOh Pops, itâs amazing! I love it, thank you so much!â She smiles as she hugs her smaller frame.Â
Her, Seb and Poppy spend the rest of the afternoon in the garden as they wait for Morgan to get back from work. Heâd got the pool out for them the night before and it was finally full enough for them to play in the water.Â
He smiles when he walks into the house, instantly hearing them all laughing. Poppy and the Mrs shrieking as Seb splashed them with cold water. Walking over to the back door, he watches them. His family.Â
âDaddy!â Poppy claps, looking over at the door. Both the Mrs and Seb turn to face the door.Â
âDad!â Seb smiles from the pool. âCan you come and play football with me? Pleeeeease.âÂ
âCourse I can mate, just give me a minute.â He walks over to where the Mrs and Poppy are playing with her Barbieâs on one of the sun loungers.Â
âWhatâs going on here then?â He grins, looking at the scene in front of him.Â
âWell daddy, Barbie is changing her outfit because sheâs going to the beach so she needs her swimming costume on.â Poppy explains matter of factly.Â
âAh I see, of course.â He smirks. As soon as Poppy begins to play again, he lifts up his sunglasses his eyes landing straight on the Mrsâ body in her bikini with a wink. âThereâs ice creams in the freezer.â He announces, mostly to Seb and Poppy. Seb jumps out of the pool and Poppy runs in the house behind him. Leaving the two of them alone.Â
âGood day?â She asks, smiling up at him.Â
âBetter now.â He smirks, his eyes all over her.Â
âPerv.âÂ
âCanât blame me.â He leans down, kissing her lips. âYou look happier.âÂ
âI am.â She giggles against his lips. âLove you.â He kisses her once more, sitting down on the edge of the sun lounger now.Â
âEuuuurrrggh! Yuck!â Poppy recoils when she sees them both, Sebâs face turns sour at the sight of them.Â
âDad thatâs disgusting!â He hands over two ice creams to them standing as far back as he can.Â
âIt wasnât me! Itâs your mum, sheâs always kissing me.â Morgan laughs.Â
âYeah right.â Seb retorts, clearly having his dad figured out. âI always hear you kissing mam in bed-âÂ
âRight, enough of that! Whoâs coming in the pool?â Morgan stands up, clapping his hands together awkwardly in a bid to get to Seb to stop talking.Â
âMe! Iâm going in!â Poppy jumps excitedly. âMummy come on.âÂ
Saturday rolls along quicker than expected. She felt awful for wishing it to come sooner, sheâd been craving some alone time with Morgan ever since heâd mentioned it.Â
Heâs grinning from ear to ear once he gets back from dropping them off at his mums. Theyâd decided on Nandoâs and the cinema. Nothing flash but one of their favourite date nights. One that was a regular occurrence for the two of them before the kids.Â
âFeels so weird being in here without the kids. I feel like a teenager.â He laughs, recalling the days theyâd do this every weekend. Even well after he started earning a lot of money they still found themselves in the same Nandoâs theyâd always went to.Â
Back at home, the rest of the house is quiet in comparison to their bedroom. She was all giggles as he pulled off her thong.Â
âMy. Fucking. Gorgeous. Wife.â He kissed down her neck, lifting up her hips and placing one of their pillows underneath her. âOpen.â He tapped on her thigh, pulling her legs apart and smirking at how her core glistened already. âHavenât even touched you yet and youâre soaked.â His finger traces lightly over her folds and she jumps which pulls a small laugh from him.Â
His eyes never leave hers as he pushes two fingers inside her tight, wet hole. Curling them upwards with a smirk. âM-Morgan..â The sound of her wetness only spurs him on further. Pulling moans from her as he speeds up his movements. âFuck-fuck, Morgan!âÂ
He smirked cockily down at her, getting her as close to the edge as he could using just one of his hands. His thumb worked over her clit. âYouâre dead close love.â By now she could only muster a nod, her eyes shut in pleasure as she whimpered. The knot in her stomach tightening as her moans turned even more high pitched.Â
Before he knew it, she was clamped down around his fingers, her own hand wrapped around his forearm tightly as she came around him.
âCould watch you all day yâknow? Fuckinâ so sexy.âÂ
He laid back, his back against the headboard of the bed as he grabbed her hand placing it on his cock. She couldnât help but smirk at how hard he was, giggling before leaning down and swirling her tongue around the head of his length still looking into his eyes. She pushed her lips downwards, taking him only halfway and using his fist to pleasure the rest of him. âJesus- keep going love. Gorgeous with your mouth full.â He stroked her cheek affectionately before contrastingly putting a balled fist into her hair and using it to control her movements. He smirked as she gagged each time his head hit the back of her throat, holding her head down just a few seconds before pulling her away. She lifted up, her mascara watering around her eyes as she wiped the saliva that had accumulated on her chin. She crawled up his body, a grin across her lips as she settled with both legs at his hips.Â
âThink I must be the luckiest man alive.â His hands reached up to grab each of her tits, squeezing them and rubbing his thumbs over her hardened nipples. âCould knock you up all over again.â He smirked, it was no secret that heâd have a whole football team of kids with her, he just couldnât help himself but thankfully she had more sense and self restraint than him.Â
âNice try.â She leaned over, opening the top drawer of his bedside table. âPut this on.â She handed him a red wrapper, âDurexâ printed across it. With a joked sigh, he opened up the condom and began to slide it onto his length.Â
He teasingly ran himself through her folds again, stopping at her hole with a smirk. She pulled his big hands from him, placing each one on her arse as she began to slide down on him. âSo tight, always so tight.â He squeezed her arse cheek, making her groan. Adapting to the stretch of his girth inside of her, she began to move. Bouncing up and down on him, her hands instinctively moved to her tits cupping each one.Â
âOh my god.â Her head flew back in pleasure.Â
With a gasp, he planted a hard slap across her arse cheek.Â
âFaster, go on. Fuckinâ ride me.âÂ
She did exactly as he said, his filthy commands only spurring her on more.Â
âWhat are you? Hm?â He smirked teasingly, knowing they both knew there was only one thing he wanted to hear from her.Â
âY-yours.â
âWhat?â He slapped at her arse cheek again.
âYours!â She shouted louder.
âBetter.âÂ
He had her screaming in minutes. A side to her he hadnât seen for ages, parenthood getting in the way.
âMorgan! Iâm gonna cum!âÂ
Heâd contorted her body until she was bent over their bed, her face smushed into their mattress due to her hands being held behind her back by one of his.Â
âAgain?â He smirked, he prided himself on pulling orgasm after orgasm from her which heâd been doing for the last 10 minutes even though he was close himself. Her eyes filled with tears as she began to convulse all over again. Pornographic moans leaving her lips as she screamed his name. Just the sight of her was enough to have him spilling into the condom.Â
âOh my god..â She whispered as he pulled himself out of her. She instinctively laid down again, a soreness in what felt like every muscle in her body. She smiled as she felt his lips on her, kissing up from her stomach to her lips.Â
Heâd disappeared a few minutes later, running the shower before carrying her in with him as she giggled.Â
It wasnât long before their routine settled again, life with the kids felt easier the more she allowed herself to take a break. With the kids being so well behaved at Morganâs mums, sheâd offered to have them anytime, which Morgan kept a mental note of.
âYou look shattered, I thought you were having a rest? What the hell have you been doing?â His nana exclaimed from the living room, cup of tea in hand as she examined her grandson.Â
Michelle took one look at the lovebite on his neck and laughed.Â
âCanât a man show the mother of his kids some appreciation every now and then?â He held his hands up before rubbing over the mark on his neck earning a disapproving look from his mum.
âWell I hope you took her somewhere nice, she deserves that at least. All the running around she does after you lot.â His nana shook her head, taking a sip of her tea.Â
âTrust me, sheâs sound nana.â He laughs, his mum bats his chest jokingly.
âRight get out of here, we donât want to hear anymore.âÂ
With Poppyâs Peppa Pig backpack on one shoulder and Sebâs scooter in the other hand, he laughed as he joined the kids in the car who were more than excited to spend the day with their mum again. Given that she was still tired from the night before, she felt more refreshed than she has in a long time.Â
Had a lot of dad!morgan requests so hereâs an expectant dad!morgan drabble.
âChat, chat honestly.â He sighs a little. âI canât. I canât win! I just canât fuckinâ win.â He laughs a little bit. It had been a tricky day for you to say the least. Being 9 months pregnant and a week overdue is enough to make anyone feel fed up. Unfortunately for him, it just meant that Morgan got the brunt of your attitude most of the time. He doesnât mind it in all honesty, he can handle it but todayâs been rough. He bites his tongue knowing you have the worse end of the bargain but he feels he can let loose a little on stream.
âSo, Mrs is pregnant as you all know. A week overdue. A week, chat!â He stares into the camera. âObviously, sheâs handling it like a champ but sheâs fuckinâ angry. So fuckinâ angry all the time.â
He laughs a little remembering your little bicker this morning.
âMorgan, please could you fill my water up?â You shouted him from the living room.
âCourse I can babe. You hungry?â He takes the bottle from you.
âYeah, could you get me the ice cream from the freezer please? The chocolate and caramel one.â
His eyes widen.
âYou didnâtâŚâ She glares at him.
âIâm so sorry.â
âMorgan!â She says annoyed. âYou know thatâs my favourite.â
âIâll run to the shop now, give me two minutes.â He grabs his keys from the side.
When he comes back, heâs instantly alarmed hearing your sobs coming from the living room.
âBabe?! Whatâs the matter?â He runs in, kneeling at your level on the sofa.
âI-IâmâŚIâmâŚso sorry for shouting and being a bitch!â Your cry and hiccups making you struggle to get the sentence out.
âYouâre not a bitch sweetheart. I shouldnât have eaten it, here.â He gives you a fresh tub and a spoon. âDonât cry.â He strokes your head and kisses your forehead.
âHonestly chat. Itâs so rough out here. One minute sheâs screaming at me, the next sheâs crying her eyes out.â He looks at the chat.
âYou know what she said to me earlier today. So laying in bed this morning, obviously just woke up. She looked me in the eye. Dead serious. She went âDo you have to fuckinâ breathe? You make me feel sick.â No word of a lie chat, she did.â
The chat moves quickly, other women whoâve been in the same situation sticking up for you with a laugh.
Before he knows it, youâre waddling up the stairs. His eyes widen when he hears you as he looks at the camera. âShit.â
âMorgan?â You ask quietly, popping your head around the corner.
âEverything alright love?â He looks startled at you.
âYeah, can you order tea please? Iâm starving.â
âCourse I can, anything for you.â
âRight.â You sense the vibes off. âWhat are you doing?â
âJust streaming, love. Not doing much.â
âHmm ok.â You donât care to ask whatâs just happened. âCan you get extra cheese on my pizza please?â
âYeah, yeah thatâs fine.â He breathes a sigh of relief once you leave the room. âChat, itâs not funny.â He laughs a little bit. âSheâs like a dragon honestly.â
âMorgan!!â She shouts from the bedroom.
âFuck. Yeah?â He shouts back.
âWhat the fuck are you saying about me on stream?!â
âRight. I reckon Iâll be off anyway. Thanks so much for watching, Iâll hopefully be on tomorrow.â He waves. âIf I fuckinâ make it that far. See you later chat.â
