"Wow Nat!� You look fantastic!" said Paul as Nat came down to the hotel lobby.
"Thanks Paul!" Nat said giving him a kiss.
"Ready to go?" Paul asked.
"Yep!" Nat replied.
When they got to the restaurant, they order their meals and began to talk babies.
"So, what you want, boy or girl?" asked Paul.
"Hmmmm...an ickle girl would be nice!" said Nat.
"Yeah, I'd love that!" said Paul.� "It'd be cool if Em is pregnant too!"
"Yeah it would, but the poor girl will not find it easy being so young, but at least she's got Ben!" said Nat.
"You know Ben cheated on her once?" asked Paul.
"No!� When?" asked Nat in disbelief.
"About a year ago.� It was nothing serious - one night thing.� But he was so pissed!"� said Paul.
"Did he tell her?" asked Nat.
"No, no one told her cos Ben never meant to do it.� You know he loves her!" said Paul.
Later on that night, everything was going really well when Paul suddenly said "Nat, we've been with each other for ages now and we're having a baby and we love each other...so Nat...will you marry me?" he said, taking out the ring.
"Shit you" Nat said, laughing.� "Course I will you goof!"
Paul slipped the ring on her finger and kissed her.

It was the day of Emma's 18th birthday. She was so happy that she was spending the day with her close friends in the Maldives. She just wished that Tess was there. She wokeup that morning lying on the beach with Ben. She had enjoyed last night, Ben and her had finally got to spend some quality time together and had spent hours talking.
''Morning gorgeous!'' Ben said as he woke up.
''Sleep well?'' asked Emma
''Yep, we had a good night last night didn't we!''
''Yeah, we did, it was amazing!'' said Emma
''So hun'' Ben said ''What we gonna do about the baby?''
Ben turned over and sat up to face her and give her a hug. He knew this was a very emotional time for Emma and he wanted to reassure her.
''I've decided I want to keep the baby! I know we're so young and everything but it's all I ever wanted just happening a bit earlier!'' said Emma
''Emma, are you sure? Cos you know it's no gonna be easy!'' said Ben.
''Yeah, I spent last night thinking about it!'' Emma said, standing up. ''Come on we go get some breakfast!''
''Emma are you hungry?'' asked Ben
''Yes, come on Ben! Before I eat you!'' she said laughing.
''Oh, you'd eat me would you?'' Ben said geting up. ''Maybe I'll eat you instead!''
''Uh huh! Come and get me then Mr!'' Emma said, as she set off running down the beach.
Ben started to run after her and it wasn't long before he caught up with her. He picked her up and began kissing her. Ben carried Emma down to the sea and sat her down in the water.
''BENNNN!!'' Emma squealed. ''Now look at me!'' Ben looked at her and rolled his eyes. ''You look just gorgeous'' he said as he put a piece of seaweed in her hair.
Emma saw a girl come up to them and she thought she looked familar. She knew it couldn't be who she thought it was but shouted out to her anyway.
''TESS!!?''
''Yeah!'' The girl turned around
''Tess, what are you doing here?'' Ben said, as he helped Emma out of the sea.
''I had to come here'' Tess said ''I needed to see you Emma, it being your birthday and all!''
''I've already give Em her pressie!'' said Ben.
''Yeah, a nice dunk in the sea!'' Emma said.
Tess laughed. ''Happy birthday babe!'' Tess said. ''But i also came to see Chris!''
''Tess, he's in the hotel.'' Emma said.
''Come on up with us, we're going to get breakfast now anyway!'' Ben said.
