“I need to go call Telle…” I spoke, my voice sounding weak from the crying. Tony didn’t respond. He just stared at the letter; it looked like he was reading it over and over again, trying to wrap his head around it.

I went into the spare room and sat down on the floor, I had my phone in my hands and they were shaking. I was scared for this phone call to be honest, because throughout my pregnancy he's not really bothered with me. He hasn't even said congratulations about Sophia being born, never mind wanting to see her. So, this made me quite nervous. I went into my contacts and scrolled down to Telle’s name, I pressed click and my heart thumped with every ring there was, until it stopped and there was a small, sleepy

“Hello” from the other line.

“Hi, Telle…”


*** Tony’s Pov ***

I read the letter over and over again, confirming that everything was certain, that everything was true. I couldn’t get my head around it, I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t even hear Alice when she spoke to me; I’m just… not there right now.

I stood up from my position on the couch, leaving the letter on the table and went into the toilet. I ran the cold water and splashed my face with it, trying to become awake, come out of this, I need to believe this, and it’s true! Sophia’s my baby. She’s mine!

I dried my face and walked through to mine and Alice’s room, where our gorgeous baby girl lay in her cot, her eyes open but she was fairly content. I picked her up and sat on the floor with her in my arms. I studied her every feature. Of course she was mine. Look at those eyes, those beautiful brown eyes, the tan complexion, everything.

I cuddled her close to me so her face was in my neck and I was supporting her head with my hand, and I just started crying. I started crying of pure happiness.

***Alice’s Pov ***

“Hi, Telle…” I said, my voice shaky.

“What is it? It’s like half nine in the morning, you know that right?” he groaned.

“Actually, yeah I do, since I’ve been up with my baby since eight in the morning, you ass.” I sighed, “Anyway, I was just calling to say that Sophia isn’t yours.”

“W-what?” he stuttered.

“Telle, don’t act like you cared…” I sighed, “I’ve got to get back to my baby. Goodbye, Telle.” I said and hung up the phone before walking into mine and Tony’s room, hearing soft little sobs coming from Tony. It made my waterworks begin again and I spotted him at the end of the bed, on the floor with Sophia in his arms, sobbing away. I set my phone down on the chest of drawers and made my way to him, I kneeled in front of him and wiped away some of his tears.

“Why are you crying?” I whispered.

“I-I was so scared, Ally, I wanted so badly for her to be mines. And she is, and I’m just so happy.” he whispered back.

“Me too, baby.” I said, kissing his forehead. I went to get up but Tony stopped me and pulled me back down. I sat down in between his legs and he lowered Sophia into my arms and he wrapped his arms round the both of us. I smiled, “This is exactly what I wanted. This is perfect.” I sighed happily.

“I agree honey.” Tony whispered and kissed my neck.

“I love you so, so much.” I said, a tear escaping from my eye, “I was so scared I was going to lose you.”

“You don’t ever have to worry about that, baby.” Tony said, wiping the tear away and kissing my cheek, “I love you so much.”
