Thanx for your comments!!

Here's the nxt chapter!!

Chapter 17

Belle moaned loudly as she felt another contraction coming on.

"Belle, I need you to breath for me," said the doctor loudly, as he inserted an injection in her arm. "Just breath, deep breaths."

"Where's Aden, I need Aden," cried Belle.

"He's outside love, it's ok," reassured Judy, rubbing her hand gently across Belle's forward.

"I need to see him, please Judy," pleaded Belle.

"Ok, ok, I'll get him for you," promised Judy. "But I need you to breath, it's the only way you can help your baby Belle. Can you do that for me?"

Belle nodded weakly, and Judy flew out the door. Seconds later, Aden was there.

"Aden, oh Aden!" cried Belle, reaching out for his arm.

She felt the pain reduce momentarily as his hand slid into hers.

"It's ok, babe, I'm here," said Aden, kissing the palm of her hand.

"Are the contractions stopping Belle?" asked the doctor urgently.

Belle shook her head.

"Is she dialating?" the doctor asked Judy quickly.

Reaching her hand underneath the blue sheet at Belle's feet carefully, she grimaced and nodded.

"Two centimetres."

"We've got to stop this!" said the doctor quickly, inserting another injection in Belle's arm.

"What's happening?" asked Aden, frantically. Belle looked around the room with wild eyes.

"Her cervix has started widening," said the doctor, as he checked the monitor. "She's at two centimetres now, but if it reaches ten there will be little or nothing we can do to stop this baby being born."

"What!" said Belle, desperately. "But I'm only 28 weeks!! Aden, I don't wana lose this baby!"

"Belle, Belle, listen to me," said Aden, determindly. "You listening? You need to just breath ok, ok, remember that time where the baby first kicked, remember how happy you were, how when we got engaged, and the beautiful dinner we had that night, and how are wedding is next week! Remember all that!"

"Yeah, the engagement," she whispered, breathlessly. "It was so beautiful! So perfect! You are perfect!"

"And our wedding next week! Next week, can you believe it?" said Aden, smiled as he saw her calming down. "And seeing you walking down the aisle in your dress, and our vows! D'you know I've written my own special vows. To show you how much I love you."

"Aden, you've already shown me that," said Belle, softly.

"Nothing's good enough for my girl," said Aden, flashing his breathtaking smile.

"Your cervix is closing up Belle," said Judy, smiling at her. "How's the contraction?"

"There going! I think it's working, Aden!" said Belle, overjoyed.

"See, everythings going to be ok," said Aden, happily. "Just keep remembering happy things. Now...any chance you're gona tell me abit about your dress?"

Belle laughed lightly. "Not a chance. You're just gona have to wait for the big day!"

"Aw, babe, the suspense is killing me!"

"My lips are sealed," said Belle.

"Sealed? Really?" said Aden, teasingly. "I guess that means I won't be able to do this."

And he leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips. Belle smiled widely as pulled apart, and she leaned her forward against his.

"Cervix is closed. You've got the all clear Belle!" said the doctor happily.

"Does that mean I can go home now?" asked Belle, eagerly.

"Yes, but...you're going to have to take things easy for a few weeks," said the doctor.

"That'll be no problem," said Aden, grinning from ear to ear. "I'll make sure she does exactly that."

"Let me just get you a wheelchair and then you can go," said Judy kindly.

"Thanks doctor, thanks Judy," said Belle, placing her hand on her stomach.

"That's what we're here for sweety," said the doctor kindly. "You take care now."

After lifting her carefully into the wheelchair, Aden wheeled Belle out to the recpetion.

"Belle!" cried out Mattie. "Oh thank God your ok! The baby?"

"Is fine," reassured Belle, patting her stomach lightly. "We're both fine."

"Thank God!"

"Let's get you home," said Aden, wheeling her towards the door. "You're exhausted." noted Aden as Belle yawned loudly.

"Oh there's goes the baby again," said Belle, putting her hand to her stomach quickly. "There's definately nothing wrong with this little guy! All of a sudden though I have an urge for a pineapple."

Aden groaned. "Back to my late night drive outs!"

Belle smacked his hand playfully. "Enough complaining! To the grocers!"

Chapter 18

"Belle! Belle, where are you?" called Mattie, as she walked through the hall

"I'm right here what's up?" said Belle, walking into the kitchen, her hand on tummy.

"'What's up? What's up?' What up is your not meant to be out of bed," said Mattie in disbelief. "I came up from the kitchen and you weren't in your room! You have me a friggin' heart attack! Where were you?"

"The bathroom," said Belle, indifferently.

"Belle, your meant to wait for me to help you!" said Mattie, putting her hands on her hips. "Aden's going to kill me when he finds out!"

"He doesn't have to find out," said Belle. "Nothing happened, I'm fine."

"The doctor said bed rest Belle," said Mattie, unimpressed.

"Mattie, chill, I was just going to the bathroom, for God's sake!" said Belle, irritated.

Mattie shook her head and turned away. It's just the hormones, she reminded herself.

"Who ate all the ice cream?" asked Belle, as she examined the freezer. "There's none here!"

"Belle that was you," said Mattie, picking up the laundry. "Belle, look, I'm here to help you pack for when your moving to your Mum's tomorrow. If you keep getting distracted, then nothing's going to get done!"

"Ok, fine, fine!" said Belle, grabbing an ice lolly. "Let's go pack."

"Put your arm in mine," said Mattie, standing beside her.

"Mattie," said Belle, rolling her eyes at her.

"Aden's orders," said Mattie, determindly. "Now just do it!"

Belle groaned and took Mattie's hand, and they walked up the stairs together.

*

"Right, I think that's it!" said Mattie happily, standing back and admiring the neatly packed suticase in front of her. "Really, Belle your Mum is so nice offering to have your wedding at her place! It's going to be so beautiful!"

Belle smiled as she fantasised it`, her bad mood having past over. "Yeah, I can't wait. I can't believe it's only three days away!"

"Oh by the way, the tailor is delivering the dresses to your Mum's place tomorrow," said Mattie. "So make sure someone's there to pick them up!"

"Yeah, that'll be fine," said Belle. "Drew's agreed to be my personal slave for as long as I want him so I'll just make him get it!"

"The poor boy!" said Mattie, laughing.

"Yeah I know!", said Belle, and they both burst out laughing. "He offered though!"

"Knock, knock, anyone home," said Aden at the bedroom door.

"Hey babe," said Belle, stretching her arms out to hug him.

"Hey gorgeous," said Aden, hugging her tightly. "How's the bub?"

"He's good", said Belle, patting her stomach lightly. "He missed you too!"

"You guys know it's a boy!" said Mattie, excitedly.

"No," said Aden. "But Belle reckon's it is. The little guy never stops kicking!"

Belle nodded, coughing lightly.

"Hey, how's the coughing?" asked Aden, sitting down on the bed and pulling Belle closer to him. "How you holding up?"

"I'm ok," said Belle, leaning her head against his chest. "It's worse today, but it's ok."

"We'll go to the hospital straight away when we go to the city tomorrow," Aden promised. "We'll go to your Mum's afterwards."

"Amanda came around then I'm guessing," said Mattie. "To you living there, Aden."

"Yeah she did," said Aden. "She likes me now I think. I reckon she's realised that when it comes to Belle, I'm willing to do anything."

Mattie raised her eyesbrows. "God Belle, you managed to find yourself the pefect guy!"

Aden chuckled but Belle nodded determindly. "Defo!" she said, leaning up to kiss him.

"So, I gotta go," said Mattie, getting up from the bed. "Ric's finished work soon and he's taking me out to dinner so I gotta go get ready! I'll come around tomorrow before you head off."

"Thanks Mattie," said Belle, lazily, not wanting to shift from Aden's lap.

"Bye!" said Mattie, as she ducked through the door.

"So, how are you really?" asked Aden, when Mattie left.

"Aden, I'm fine really, just tired," insisted Belle. "You were right when you said this little guy doesn't stop kicking."

Aden chuckled and placed his hand gently on Belle's tummy. Belle sighed as the baby stopped kicking at Aden's touch.

"The baby finds your touch soothing," she murmered, collapsing fully into Aden's chest.

"Let's get you to bed, huh," said Aden, shifting Belle off his lap and standing up.

Carefully Belle stood up and Aden helped lower her into the bed.

"Love you," Belle murmered as her head hit the pillow.

Aden smiled. "Love you too, gorgeous. Always have, always will"
