"Okay last call Lisa, mint choco chip or vanilla?" Ian asked showing Lisa the tub of both flavours ice cream in his each hand.

"I am still confused" she answered with one finger on her chin seemingly in deep thought.

"No that's it, we are getting both." He answered putting both the tubs in the kart.

"What? No! We don't need both." She spoke walking behind him as he moved forward in the aisle looking for other stuff. This was the first time, he had come grocery shopping and that was after Lisa conducted to not let him sleep on the bed until he goes with her.

"You couldn't chose and we had to make a decision." Ian answered shrugging his shoulder in response. His whole attention was now focused on the whole aisle of fruits and vegetables.

"Well hell," he whispered to himself looking ahead confused to where to start from or rather what to start from.

"You need help?" Lisa asked placing her hand on one of his shoulder and uplifting her eyebrows.

"What? No, of course not this is too easy." He answered puffing out and looking around nervously. This was not what he was expecting when he said shopping was too easy.

"Well, okay." She answered moving behind him and gesturing him to start. "All yours" she giggled reflecting her hand forward for him to walk.

"Damn women you test my limits," he spoke pulling her into a small quick kiss. "I will prove it that shopping is easy." He answered winking at her and walking down the place to search for the things on the list.

Lisa laughed lightly on the sight of his husband busy locating everything around to match with the list. She thought to herself how happy these months have been, six to be exact. It was just like yesterday when she remembered walking down the aisle to him. Everything that changed, how many happy times and how many troubles. It all seemed so unreal, like she would just touch it and it will be gone.

"No lady, this is mine. I took it first."

"What a shameful fellow you are? You are lying for a pair of oranges? "

"Last pair of oranges! And I am not lying, I took it first and its on the list so I got to get it."

"Oh God are you serious? "

" You bet my ass, I am!"

Lisa heard the voices which interrupted her thoughts. Ian stood there arguing with a women with a pack of oranges in his hand.

"Oh no, " she whispered rushing towards him. Seeing her Ian took the list and shoved it in her hand.

"I am not doing this, she is arguing for a pack of orange and accusing me to be lying!" He spoke upholding his arms in the air with disbelief. The lady looked at him with disbelief and anger to what he said.

"Excuse me you- "

"I am sorry miss, he didn't mean any of this. He is just grumpy today, you can keep the pack though." Lisa replied and gave her the oranges taking it from his hands. "Thank you." She whispered taking his hand and walking them out of the place.

"Seriously?" Lisa asked shaking her head to the not so regretful looking Ian.

"I didn't wanted to leave anything on the list. Beside that was the only thing I could find and she just wanted to take that! Just that!" Ian blubbered in frustration. A little float of laugh left Lisa, mouth. "Don't laugh, this is really your fault." Ian answered crossing his hands over his chest.

"My mistake? Huh." She asked moving forward wrapping her arms around his neck before bending her mouth to whisper "So grocery shopping doesn't seem to be so easy now does it? "

She took a heavy puff of air as Ian's placed his hands suddenly on her ass, pulling her closer to his chest.

"No not so easy and also because I don't to this stuff " he whispered in her ear seductively "Although" he said squeezing her ass tightly with his hands before biting her earlobe and whispering down her ear, "there is something I could do very easily and maybe right here."

"Shhh.. Get off get off! " Lisa answered pushing him away "Not when public is around" she spoke straightening her dress that was crumped a bit.

"That means" Ian continued as he placed his hands around her exist hugging her from behind. "I can do anything to you when we are not in public? "

"Maybe, lets see" Lisa answered pushing him away "Now get me the list, we have to go to other store." She asked giggling to him.

They reached home after shopping a bit. Ian looking exhausted with shopping for grocery for the first time.

"Did you get in touch with your father, Lisa?" Ian asked putting the last can of food in the fridge.

"Umm..no." Lisa answered shaking her head. I don't think he wants to see me. If he did he would have asked me in the last six months but he didn't and whenever I went to see him, he refused that too.

"I get that but don't put assumptions on this. I know he is not my favourite person in the world but he your father and I think he is ashamed to face you. Maybe next time force him to see you." Ian replied kissing her forehead and warmly pulling her in a hug.

"Okay, you guys gotta look what I brought! Shut the PDA guys!" Mia spoke entering the hall with her hands full of shopping bags.

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill her? "Ian asked raising her eyebrows at Lisa.

"Cause she is your sister," Lisa answered pushing a light punch on his arm.

"Not good enough" Ian answered shaking his head in annoyance.

"Guys no PDA!" Mia shouted from the hall, clattering with her bags.

"It's not PDA when you are not in public, idiot" Ian answered walking towards her, in the hall.

"Whatever, Lisa look I got this for 50% off" Mia said as she pulled out a pink dress for a baby.

"What are you going to do with this? It won't even fit you" Ian answered laughing at his joke.

"Not funny brother, its not for me its for the upcoming baby and I brought the blue jumpsuit if it's a boy you- "she was interrupted with Ian spiting all of the water from his mouth of the piece of clothing.

"Well never mind." Mia spoke keep now wet and dirty clothes down.

"What baby? And who's baby??" Ian asked standing from the couch.

"Well, of course, your baby and- shit" Mia immediately put her hand on her mouth as soon as she realised what she has been saying for the last 10 minutes.

"Uhh.. Ian, I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how you would react and she was just there and I couldn't control myself and I told her. And I know I should have told you before-"

"I am going to a father?" Ian asked surprised looking at Lisa "Am I?" Ian asked again with a elated look on his face.

"No shit Sherlock," Mia said gaining Lisa's attention who gave her a hard glare. But it didn't seem to effect Ian at all, he was too happy to bother.

"I am going to be a father!!" Ian shouted picking Lisa up from the floor and circling her around. He placed her down and kissed every part of her face. He was elated .

"We are going to be parents. I am so happy, I am so happy I get to do this with you. You complete me Lisa, you complete my life." Ian whispered as a single tear passed from his cheeks. He hugged her tightly still being careful with the new growing life inside her.

"Hey me too!!" Mia shouted joining them for the hug. Both of them just laughed and took her in the hug. Life was nothing but perfect for them.

**Seven months later**

"I am fine Ian, there is no swelling anymore put me down." Lisa spoke as Ian continued to take her downstairs in his arms.

"No, not happening you are already too exhausted with the baby shower thing and I am taking no risk." He replied with a certain look on his face.

"They are going to be here any minute, put me down." She answered referring to all the guest Mia had invited for her baby shower.

"There is still time" he replied taking her to the sofa and placing her down. "Now you rest and I will get you some juice." He replied placing a kiss on her forehead and a light kiss on her belly.

"Ian" Lisa spoke taking his hand and stopping him from going "Come with me" she said standing from the couch with his help and taking him along with her.

They walked in the studio Ian surprised Lisa with, her paintings still lay some completed some not, depending on her mood swings. She stood against a canvas covered with a white cloth.

"I just want to say thank you, " Lisa, said as she pulled the cloth off to reveal the painting of her mother, but this time complete. "You were the thing missing in my life." Lisa confessed looking at him with teary eyes. Ian saw the painting which was now completed with elegant colours and composition. He immediately looked at Lisa and pulled her in a strong passionate kiss.

"You filled my life with colours Lisa, just like you did to this painting. I am so happy to spend my rest of the life with you. "Ian whispered on the top of her head as it laid on his chest.

Soon the guest arrived and party was on swing. Happiness was booming from every corner to the room. It felt like a fairy-tale with every page having the very true story.

"I can't wait for my princess to come" Ian spoke as he placed his hand on the growing belly. "She is going to love her father more." He continued beaming with laughs and happiness.

"Mia? Hey, are you okay?" Lisa asked excusing herself from the ladies she was talking to. Mia had been quiet this whole function which was very unlikely of her.

"Yes yes, I am fine." Mia answered passing a fake smile to Lisa, which didn't quit reach her. "I am going to leave for a while, have some work to be done." She continued placing a light pat on her belly to acknowledge her presence to the baby.

"Oh but the party I-"

"Lisa please," Mia pleaded not knowing further how longer she could hide her pain. Lisa didn't entitle on the topic more, she just pulled her in a hug.

"You brother and I love you" Lisa spoke before giving her the space she needed. She walked out of the house to the place she really had to be.

"What happened?" Ian asked surprising Lisa from back and hugging her. She released a sigh of relief and took the warmth from him.

"Nothing, it's just perfect."

"No Lisa," Ian said taking her hands and making her look at him,

"It's out perfect tale."
