Lisa's POV

It's been just over two weeks now since I was released from prison and I'm still unsure why they arrested Mia because it couldn't possibly have been her. It was Leanne's old house and Mia didn't know anything about it until I took her there, but I haven't said anything to the police about it because I don't want to risk them thinking I was apart of it and locking me up again.

I've been getting visiting orders sent from Mia for me to come and visit her, but so far I've been avoiding her requests, but each time I throw one away, the more I start to feel guilty about it. Mia is stuck in prison for something she didn't do and has nobody to turn to just like I was and I know how it feels to be blamed and punished for something you didn't do, which is why I agreed to visit her on thursday. I'm really nervous about seeing her again, but in a way I'm happy about seeing her too. Ever since the police arrested me, my mom refuses to see me and has told the nurses not to let me visit her in the nursing home and with my police record and being 8 month pregnant and lack of work experience. I can't even find anybody to hire me so I've been spending pretty much everyday sitting by myself in my apartment.

Leanne's POV

Micheal and I haven't spoken about what happened with Mia since the day she was arrested. Not because we don't care, but because we're trying to move on with our lives and forget about the past and concentrate on our future. In the last few weeks things between Micheal and I have been going great and I can't remember the last felt this happy and relaxed. Mia has sent me visiting orders a few times, but each time I've thrown them away. I do wonder sometimes how she is, but I haven't gone to visit her because I already know she's in the best place she can be right now and seeing her again is just going to bring back too many memories that I'm trying to forget. Neither of us have heard or seen anything from Lisa and hopefully she has moved far away by now and is moving on with her life like we are.

I came to visit Micheal at work today and I'm sitting in his office, playing with Bugsy while Micheal is finishing off some paper work and Randy walks in.

"Have you finished that report yet? I've been waiting all day"

"Yeah, I finished it this morning. sorry I forgot to tell you" Micheal says getting up from his seat and goes over to his filing cabinet" and Randy sighs heavily and stands impatiently, waiting for him to get whatever report Randy needed so urgently then turns to me confused.

"You brought your cat to the office?"

"I said she could. Because she didn't wanna leave him alone in the house all day" Micheal cuts in before I can reply.

"That was caring of you" he mumbles in a slightly sarcastic tone. "If it's a problem, i'll just take him home and..."

"It's not a problem" Micheal cuts me off "is there?" He frowns at Randy, handing him the report he asked for "Nope. I was just saying it's nice how much Micheal cares for people" he shrugs innocently and Micheal frowns as he leaves the room.

"Have I done something to upset him?" I ask when Randy leaves the room. "No why?"

"He just seems really off with me latley. Like he's mad at me"

"He's been like that with everybody. He just going through some personal issues right now is all" he smiles at me through pursed lips. "What kind of personal issues? Maybe I can help him or..."

"He'll be fine" he cuts me off "it's probably best you try and stay out of his way when he's like this. I tried to talk to him yesturday and he flipped out at me" he says and I nod, unsure of his answer. Randy and I have always gotten along pretty well but for the past few weeks he's seemed really distant and acts like he can't stand being around me.

"Oh I forgot to tell you" Micheal says bringing me from my thoughts. "The parenting class has been changed to Thursday instead of today" he smiles and I nod and smile back through pursed lips. "Don't worry about Randy. He's just being a dick to everybody right now" he says softly, wrapping his arms around me. "I was thinking we could eat out for dinner tonight. Some place nice" he smiles "sure" I smile back. "You wait here. I just need to use the bathroom then we can go home and start getting ready" he smiles, pecking my lips then leaves.

Michael's POV

After closing my office door I quickly make my way over to Randy's office.

"What the fuck was that about!?" I snap slamming the door behind me. "What are you talking about?" He shrugs, pretending to act innocent "just then in my office?"

"All I said was it was caring of you to let Leanne bring her cat to the office" he shrugs "no. It was the way you said it!"

"Well I'm sorry, but I find it strange you'd be so caring about a stupid cat yet not about the girl you supossedly love and planning on marrying and..."

"Oh my god! Are you still going on about that" I sigh heavily, rolling my eyes. "Mike, she deserves to know the truth! And what about Carley? Do you remember what she wrote on that post? She's been heartbroken for years because someone stole her baby and all she wants is..."

"I don't give a fuck what she wants or how she feels! I'm not telling her and that's final. In the last few weeks, we've starting to move on and Leanne has been the happiest I've ever seen her. Why do you wanna mess that up for her so bad?"

"I don't wanna mess it up for her, but what your doing isn't fair. You have to tell her the truth. And what about Carley? Don't you think she deserves to know her daughter? She had her baby stolen from her and.. "

"Not my problem" I shrug "so you don't care? Your keeping a mother from her child and a girl that thinks her parents are dead from meeting her real mom. You don't care about that?"

"Well then she should have been a better mother and not hand her over to a man she didn't even know"

"Ryan was a doctor and..."

"And he was Leanne's Father and Anna was her mother not Carely. And no! I don't care how Carely feels"

"How can you not care?" He frowns "why not? You clearly don't" I shrug. "What the fuck are you talk In about? If course I care. Why else would I be telling you to tell her?"

"Incase you've forgotten. It wasn't that long ago that she was so depressed and messed up in the head, she was hurting herself. Is burning her arm and on the stove and ending up in hostpital not enough for you? You want her to take some pills or cut her wrist next time? or..."

"What the fuck are you talking about!? Of course I don't want her to hurt herself!" He snaps cutting me off. "I understand you being worried about how she's gonna take the news. Especially after the whole.. stove incident" he mutters that last part. "But you don't know that telling her this is gonna put her back in that place and you can't keep finding excuses to avoid telling her. Have you forgotten what you did after you and Lisa got divorced?"

"That was different" I shrug. "No it's not. You got so depressed you took a bottle of pills and almost killed yourself and we were scared to leave you alone for months incase you tried to do it again and..."

"That was then. I'm fine now and I'm over that phycho bitch" I cut him off. "And Leanne's fine now too and you need to tell her the truth. You can't just keep this from her because she may or may not hurt herself" he says softly and I don't say anything for a moment.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna take that risk. Leanne's happy now. We both are and there's no need to bring up the past. Ryan and Anna were Leanne's parents and always have been and you need to quit going on about it" I shrug and turn and leave the room before he can say anything.

I really do feel bad for what happened to Carley and if the situation was different then maybe I would have told Leanne, but it's not. Randy keeps talking about what I'm doing not being fair, but I don't think it's fair to put pressure or stress on somebody when I know they won't be able to handle it especially when shes 7 months pregnant and even if Leanne can handle it. Ryan and Anna are still the ones that raised her and loved her and gave her a great childhood so it's also not fair to say all these things about them when we don't even know if it's actually true. We have Carely's side of the story and Maria's, but Ryan and Anna are gone and can't defend themselves or give their version of what happend that night.

When I get to my office, I open the door and see Leanne has gone and I nervously rush down the corrider to go and find her, hoping she didn't overhear any of my conversation with Randy.

Leanne's POV

"What about something like this?" Janet asks showing me another picture of yet another dress on her laptop. "Yeah, it's nice" I shrug. "Nice? What part don't you like?"

"It's a nice dress. Why are you so concerned what I think?" I giggle "because we need a nice outfit for your birthday"

"My birthdays not for another three months" I point out. "I know, but we need to start looking for what your going to wear now so you have time to prepare. We were all thinking of going for a nice meal to celebrate"

"That's sounds great, but you do know I'm gonna be giving birth before then? I'm planning more for that right now" I giggle "I know, but I just thought it'll be nice to start looking now"

"You mean you just want an excuse to go dress shopping?"

"Fine.. you got me" she giggles at takes Bugsy from me, giving him a cuddle. "He's looking so much better now" she smiles stroking his head.

"Is it ok that I brought him here?" I ask "of course. Why wouldn't this little cutesy be allowed in here" She coos at Bugsy and I tell her about Randy. "Don't worry about Randy. I think he just doesn't like cats, but that's his problem not yours" she smiles and starts looking at Bugsy's collar.

"Is that a real diamond on his collar?" She asks examining it closer. "Yeah, Me and Micheal thought it'd look cute instead of a plain one" I shrug. "But you liked it too? Not just Micheal?"

"Yeah why?" I ask confused "just wondered" she shrugs innocently. "So do you prefer big diamonds or..."

"Janet!?" Micheal says rushing into her office nervously. "Have you seen Leanne!? She was in my office and..."

"I'm right here" I giggle, putting my hand up and he sighs in relief. "There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you" he smiles giving me a hug. "Sorry. I just came in to say goodbye to Janet before we left. Is everything ok?"

"Everything's perfect" he smiles and pecks my lips. "C'Mon let's get going" he says taking my hand and helps me up from my seat.

"We'll talk more about going shopping later" Janet smiles, handing Bugsy back to me and I smile back through pursed lips and leave.

I do enjoy spending time with Janet, but lately all she seems to do is constantly talk about dresses and my birthday which is weird since it's so far away.

Micheal's POV

"I'm sorry I got you all worried" Leanne says when we're leaving the building. "I just went to say goodbye to Janet and we got talking"

"It's fine, I don't mind you going to talk to other people in the office. I just got worried when I saw you were gone is all. I think it's great that you and Janet get along so well" I smile. "What were you guys talking about?" I ask casually.

"Dresses. That's all she ever talks about these days. That and what restaurant to go to on my birthday and what I'd want to eat on the day"

"You know how Janet is. Always likes to plan ahead" I smile. "True. But my birthdays not for three more months, so there's no point buying a dress now. I would have given birth by then and hopefully lost my baby weight by then"

"You could always just pick a style you like best then get it closer the time" I suggest casually "I guess so" she shrugs and gets into the car.

After a few minutes of driving Leanne goes really quiet and when I turn to check on her, she's leaning back in her seat and looks like she falling asleep. "You ok?"

"Mhm. I just feel so tierd latley. I don't know why, I barley do anything these days" she yawns. "If you want we could cancel the restaurant and just order pizza or something"

"You don't mind?"

"Of course not. I'm a little tierd myself actually" I smile slightly and she smiles back the same way.

When we get home Leanne goes upstairs to change into some pjs and I check my phone and see I have a message from Janet and it's pictures of some dresses Leanne has commented on that she likes and I smile, looking through them as I'm starting to get a better idea of the style of wedding dress to get.

She has alot of dresses, but their all different styles which made it a little harder to know what kind to get, but Janet has been helping me out alot lately and has managed to keep it quiet on the reason she keeps taking to her about dresses and her birthday.

Leanne still had no idea I'm going to propose to her or that I've been planning the wedding for her birthday. I have everything ready now other than the dress and actually proposing, but those will have to wait until closer to the time.

I know it's only three months away, but the closer it gets it's starting to feel like time is slowing down and everytime I see her I despretly want to just propose there and then, but I've been planning this for almost a year and I don't want to ruin it by saying it now. I want everything to be perfect. I can't wait for Leanne's birthday to hurry up and get here becuse not only will she be turning 18 and the day I propose, but it's also the day that no only will she be the love of my life and mother to my many children I plan on having with her, but it's the day I finally get to call her my wife
