Stella's POV

"Stella do you like these baby grows" Charlotte asked while searching through the tan coloured clothing.

"I love them, pick me a newborn size Char" I told her excitedly.

I was out baby shopping with Charlotte and Raven, the others couldn't make it because they had some study group after school.

We were in the shopping centre looking at all the baby isles in the shops and I have like five bags full of white and neutral coloured baby things. We don't know the gender yet so I'm buying unisex clothing and stuff.

I felt Raven tug my hand and pull me to stand in front of a beautiful white knitted blanket that felt so soft. I need my baby to have it.

"Oh my gosh this is gorgeous" I say whilst pulling one of the rack.

"I know, baby unknown will love the feel too" Raven grinned and then carried on looking around.

She started calling my little one 'baby unknown' as we don't know the gender yet.

We find out the gender at around 19 weeks pregnant and I'm so excited to see if we're having a mini Ace or a mini me. I will be happy with any.

After another hour of shopping my legs are about to give out and I'm so hungry.

"Rave my baby's hungry let's go get Char" I linked arms with her and then went to find Charlotte who was now looking through all the little baby dummies and bottles.

"Charlotte I'm starving, I need food and I'm pretty sure Raven does too" I looked at Raven and she nodded her head and said something.

"I want a hot dog and Strawberry syrup" I wished and then looked at the two besties who were looking at me in disgust.

"Sorry, pregnancy cravings"

"I hope so" Char said with still a slight disgusted look on her face.

We ended up getting McDonald's on the way home and I was so hungry I ordered a burger, nuggets and fries and ate them in the back of Charlottes car.

She dropped me off at Aces, which was where I'm staying tonight and then I said bye to the both of them.

I knocked on his door with a handful of bags on each arm. Damn I think I went overboard, baby's spoilt already.

Rosa opened the door and let me in.

"Hi Rosa" i beamed and then dropped the bags near the front door to pull her into a hug.

"Ciao Stella, it's nice to see you and the baby bump" she grinned and then looked at my little bump.

I was wearing a tan dress with a little shirt over the top and my coat. My jeans can't really fit over the slight bump so now I'm limited to dresses, skirts and leggings in the middle of winter.

It's Christmas in a couple of days and I'm so excited, Rosas house is decorated so lovely and it feels so magical.

I then saw Ace making his way down the stairs and smiled when he saw me.

Rosa had already disappeared to the kitchen, I'm hoping to make them wonderful cannolis.

Ace wrapped his hands around my belly and kissed my forehead.

"Hi princess" he signed.

"Hi baby"

Then he bent down and said something to our baby. I'm not sure what as I couldn't tell what he was saying through his lips.

"So I bought some baby stuff" I motioned to the 7 bags and he just laughed at all the things.

"Come on, let's go upstairs" he grabbed all the bags and brought them upstairs to where he lay them on his white neatly made bed.

"Let me show you what I bought for little one" I say excitedly.

Then I proceeded to show him everything I bought for the next 15 minutes whilst he sat and smiled at everything.

"Aren't they all so cute" i beamed.

"There adorable babe" he replied.

"I know our baby's spoilt already"

I took a seat next to him on the bed and began folding all the little clothes and things to put them back in there bags.

"So what do you want the baby's gender to be?" I asked him

"I'm not bothered as long as our baby's healthy I will be happy with any" He said.

"Me too" I leaned up as kissed him.

"The girls are so excited, especially Charlotte she's been buying so many cute things to give to her little nephew or niece"

"I need to start looking for the baby's bed and things, I was thinking of putting the crib next to my bed. Therefore when we're sleeping the baby's next to us for the first couple months" Ace explained.

"That's a perfect idea" I nodded

"I um also got a weekend job at this new restaurant opening up so I could pay for the baby's things" He told me.

"What?"

"I got a job Stella it pays alright and I figured that because we're going to be living with our parents for a while since we're still in school, we will need the money to pay for our baby's things" Ace further detailed.

"I can't believe you did that" I felt myself getting emotional. Pregnancy hormones okay

"Of course I did, I want to provide for you and the baby. I know it's only a small job but I figured it's something to start with as I can't work during the week" Ace intertwined our hands that we're resting on my lap.

"I love you so fucking much, you know that?" I smiled.

"I know and I love you more princess" He then pulled me into him and kissed me all over my face.

A round of giggles escaped my lips and Ace just carried on peppering kisses.

"Now come and take a bath with me" He ordered.

"Okay but I have to warn you, I haven't shaved my legs since last week" I laughed.

Ace just laughed too and pulled me up by his hand.

"It's okay I'll shave them for you" He grinned.

I rolled my eyes and watched as Ace pulled us into the bathroom and made us a warm bubble bath in his big bathtub.

We both relaxed in the bubble bath and I rambled on about my baby bump getting bigger, me getting fatter and my boobs getting bigger.

All whilst Ace lay there carefully shaving my legs and smiling at me every so often in adoration.
