| *** 1 year later *** Angelica laid on the bench with her head in Kian's lap, like she had the first time she'd visited his parents. He was gently stroking her cheek, and playing with her hair. The sun had just set, and the stars were lighting up, one by one. "Kian�" she said, and he looked at her. "What sweetheart?" he asked. "I've got news for you." He smiled at her. "Good news, I hope. What's the news?" he asked curiously. She instinstinctly put her hand over her tummy, and he saw what she did. She could see how his eyes lighted up, and he looked at her with big, blue eyes. "I'm pregnant," she said. "You're going to be a dad, Kian." Her eyes went blank when she looked at him, and the way he reacted. Carefully he placed his hand over hers resting on her tummy, tears welled up in his eyes and he smiled at her. "Really? I am?" he asked. She sat up, and he took her hands. "I'm going to be a dad?" he asked again, and a tear ran down his cheek. "Yes," she whispered. "You're going to be a daddy." Kian scooped her up in his arms and hugged her for a long time. Tears rolled down her cheeks when she heard him crying softly. He buried his face in her hair, and cried of happiness. "You've made me so happy, Angel," he said quietly. "And now you've made me the happiest, luckiest man on earth. I'm going to be a dad, and I wouldn't have a child with anyone but you. You're my world, my life, my everything. I love you more than words can say." She closed her eyes and kissed his neck. "You too. I love you more than words can say, Kian." she whispered back. He looked at her, and dried her tears. "Come on. I've got to go tell mum!" he said, and took her hand. 7 months later Angelica gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. "She's got your eyes Kian." she told him and laughed. "But she's as beautiful as her mummy." Kian said and rocked their little girl in his arms. "What should we call her?" Angelica asked. "Hmm� I've got a name," he said, and smiled at her. "How about we call her Stella Cassandra? Stella is Irish for 'little star'." Angelica looked at the baby resting Kian's arms. "Stella Cassandra, how do you like your name?" she asked, and the little girl squeezed her finger and smiled up at her parents. Angelica looked at Kian, "Stella Cassandra, I love it. And apparently she does too!" Kian leaned forward and kissed his wife.There was a knock on the door, and Mark, Bryan, Nicky, Shane, Georgina, Anne, Lizzie, Monica and their parents came in. "Oh, what an adorable girl!" Georgina said, stroking the child's head. "Does she have a name yet?" Patricia wondered. Kian and Angelica looked at each other and smiled. "Yes, she does. Her name is Stella Cassandra Egan." Kian said proudly. "Oh, that's such a nice name. Congratulations!" They all came over and hugged them. "I can't believe you're a dad, Kian. But I know you'll be a very good one! And Angelica will be a great mum." Shane smiled.Kian looked at Angelica and smiled at her. This was all he had ever wanted in his life; to be with the one he loved with all his heart and soul, to raise a daughter with her, to have a family of his own. The picture was complete; she was the last piece that was missing. Everything about her was right, she was his very own angel on this earth. "You're the puzzle of my heart�" he whispered. "I love you Angelica." ~* Every time we meet, The picture is complete Every time we touch The feeling is too much She's all I ever need To fall in love again I knew it from the very start� She's the puzzle of my heart. Like a miracle she's meant to be She became the light inside of me And I can feel her like a memory From long���ago *~ ~ 'Puzzle Of My Heart', Westlife. ~ |
