Chapter 6 - Jill's birthday part 2

So here is the 2nd part of Jill's birthday, sorry about the wait but I've had quite a few family problems to sort out and been really busy with work and also having my beautiful baby girl.

So Jill and Gordon arrived home at about 3.30 and the children weren't due home until about 5.00 - 5.30 as they were going to a friends house after school and the time now was round about 4.30 and the children were going to be arriving home in the next hour and Jill was still asleep and Gordon wanted to wake her but he just didn't have the heart to and he just loved watching her sleep in his arms where he could keep her safe and it was then that he felt like the luckiest man in the world to have such a loving, caring, devoted and very beautiful woman in his life and who would do anything for him and his two children and love them like they were her own.

Gordon couldn't wait to marry her and make her his wife and then they would belong with each other forever then no-one would split them up not even Sister Bridget. As Gordon was still day-dreaming he hadn't noticed that Jill had woken up from her small nap and was looking up at him her future husband and so he was pulled from his thoughts when she spoke to him.

" Gordon…. Gordon Ormerod are you day-dreaming again because if you are that's the second time you've done it and that's just today" " Oh Jill… sorry love I was just thinking about how lucky I am to have you in mine and the children's lives and I cant wait until the day when you become Mrs Jill Ormerod… my wife and also the day when you give birth to our baby who is being protected….. safe from any harm and growing inside the most loving woman I know( Gordon placed his hand over Jill's as hers was resting over her invisible baby bump) and I know that what ever happens with Sister Bridget we will face it together as husband and wife"

" Well my darling husband to-be I cant wait until I marry you and the birth of our baby either….. But while I was sleeping I had the most wonderful dream and im not sure if to tell you are not" " Jill if it was as wonderful as you said then I want to hear it please… please Jill do tell me"

" Well…. Where should I start… I dreamt about the wedding…. Our wedding that is and it was the most wonderful day ever and everything was perfect and we got married just before the baby was born and I saw you standing at the front of the church with your back towards the door waiting for me to arrive with the children who looked very smart and beautiful by the way and when the organ started to play the guests stood up and then you my darling turned around in your grey suit which matched Tom's and you looked very smart, handsome and well I cant tell you what I was wearing can I or it will spoil the surprise on the big day so there you have it…. my dream of our wedding day"

" Jill you know that all dreams don't come true….. And if they did then we would of been married long ago and that we would of have had 2 children by now"

" Gordon this dream will becoming true ok and I already know what my wedding dress will look like as well as Katie's dress and yours and Tom's suits…. So you will just have to trust me"

" Jill I will always trust you….. I trust you with my life and our children's ( referring to Tom, Katie and their un-born baby. Gordon gives Jill a quick kiss on the cheek before speaking to her again.) So I take it…. from your dream Jill ….. You would like me to wear a grey suit"

" Well Gordon it would be nice and then I can have my dream wedding and anyway I much rather you wore a grey suit because you look so handsome and very… very dashing"

Before Gordon could reply Jill placed a small kiss to his lips and he responded which lead into a more passionate kiss and after a while they were interrupted by the sound of two very loud children's feet running through the hall way and into the living room where Jill and Gordon had sprung apart but still very red in the face and very out of breath until Katie started asking their dad a lot of questions

" well what did she say dad?, did she say yes or haven't you asked her yet and when will it be and will I be a bridesmaid?"

" Woahh slow down and take deep breaths and I will answer all your question one at a time but before I do me and Jill have something we want to tell you ok"

" Ok dad ( Tom & Katie said at the same time) tell us dad, tell us Jill please"

" So this Afternoon…. Jill do you want to tell them or do you want me to?"

" Gordon stop messing them about and just tell them will you before they bust with excitement"

"ok so children this afternoon I asked Jill a very important question…. I asked her to marry me and she said….."

Jill had to say the next bit because Gordon was taking a while to get to the point.

"I said yes and ( before she could finish both her and Gordon were attacked by the children and Gordon gave Jill a look of concern as she is pregnant and Jill mouthed "I'm fine" and so they had a conversation between them but they only mouthed so that the children could not hear

" Jill are you sure your ok, only I can tell them to leave us alone so that we can talk"

" Gordon I said I am fine and leave the children where they are, their not hurting anyone and they are defiantly not hurting me"

"Ok fine… but the reason why I wanted to talk to you alone was so that I could tell you what Matron was on about"

" you can tell me later what Matron was on about while we're in bed but for the time being lets just enjoy this time that we have together"

Katie wanted to say something only she could see that her dad and Jill were having a conversation between themselves and she didn't want to let go of Jill and with Tom still hugging their dad she knew that she had to say something before they started shouting.

So she knew that Jill didn't like to see her cry and so to get their attention she started crying

" Jill…. Jill please don't leave us…. don't leave us and daddy cause he does love you he really does…. and we love you too and he told us this morning that he was planning on asking you to marry him and that he had it all planned"

" hey Katie hush now ( all Jill could do was wrap her arms around an upset Katie and tell her that she wasn't going anywhere well not without them or their daddy) Katie listen to me ok I would never leave you or Tom and I'll never leave your daddy cause I love him too and I love you two as well ok" ( all Jill got was a nod from Katie and a few sniffs and her breathing was starting to calm down a little) hush Katie that's it calm down and take nice deep slow breaths ok"

" ok mum ( Jill didn't know what to do when Katie had called her mum so all Jill could do was to look to Gordon and to send both him and Tom out of the way so that she could have a talk with Katie by herself so that they weren't interrupted by Tom asking a load of random questions)

" Coming on then Tom lets go and kick the football around in the garden" ( Gordon asking his son so that he could leave the two ladies in his life a chance to talk alone)

" yeah…. come on…. then lets go dad"

After Gordon had left with Tom to play football in the garden Jill knew that she had to talk with Katie but she didn't want to upset her again after all it was Jill that she clung onto a few moments ago

" Katie…. Katie sweetheart why did you call me mum before? ( katie looked round for her dad and brother) it's ok you can tell me they've gone out side"

" well it's just that since my real mum died you've always been here for us and now that your going to marry daddy…. you'll become our mummy and I quite like the idea of having you as my mum"

" Katie just because I'm marrying your daddy doesn't mean you have to call me mum…. you can still call me Jill"

" but I like calling you mum and well when you and daddy get married then you'll maybe have a baby of your own and give us a baby sister maybe"

" Katie first things first I'll have to speak to your dad about you calling me mum and as for a baby we'll see"

So after Jill had spoken to Katie she called in Gordon and Tom so that they could start the dinner and get the kids homework done then they could all settle on the sofa and watch a little TV before they all headed to bed so that her and Gordon could talk about what Katie had said and also what Matron meant
