Leah POV

After taking a couple of days to get our heads around our news we had decided that my dad should be the first to know. Since this was going to be his first grandchild I wanted to make the announcement special for him.

I had put together I gift box that we would give to him and then we could both watch his facial expression as he realises what we are telling him.
While I was excited Damian was nervous about telling him, I had no idea why but I had had just about enough of watching him pace up and down.

"Will you relax, this is supposed to be happy news" I say and he stops moving

"You do realise I'm telling the Undertaker that I knocked up his daughter before he sent her home?" he says "he's going to kill me"

"No he won't you're my husband now" I smile "he's going to be happy about it I promise"

"Yeah he's going to be so happy he's going to build me my own custom made casket" he says running his hands over his face "I'm sorry firefly, I just don't want things with your dad to go backwards"

"They won't, everything will be just fine" I say cupping his cheek "I love you D and you make me happy, that's all that matters to him"

"I love you too" he smiles "is everything ready?"

"Yeah the box is all packed" I say picking it up "we just need to give it to grandpa"

With my free hand I take hold of Damian's hand and we make our way to my dads room. I could tell from the way his thumb was rubbing my hand that he was still nervous.
We stop outside his door and Damian knocks gently almost inaudibly, within seconds the door opens and my dad stands before us with a big smile in his face.

"Hey darlin, Damian, what can I do for you both?" He asks

"Can we come in, there's something we'd like to talk to you about dad?" I ask and he nods stepping to one side.

Damian and I take a seat on his bed and he sits down in the chair, I hold out the box and he looks at me questioningly.

"It ain't my birthday darlin" he says looking confused

"I know but we got you a little something" I say and he takes the box from me.

We watch as he opens the box and takes out the first time, I tiny baby grow with grandpa's little demon" written on it. He looks at it for a moment not really taking it in. He then removes the framed scan picture with the note saying hi grandpa, I can't wait to meet you, love bump"

"I....I'm going to be a grandpa?" He asks looking up as both and we both nod and smiles forms on his face "this is wonderful, congratulations you two, how far along are you?" He asks and Damians eyes widen

"I'm 8 weeks" I say and he nods

"If you hadn't married my daughter I would have reacted to that alot differently" he says and Damian nods "but I honestly couldn't be happier for you two, Damian you've proven me wrong and I'm  glad"

"Thank you sir" Damian says as he starts to relax

"For the love of god call me Mark" he says

"Yes sir....sorry Mark" he says nervously

"So have you made any decisions about work?" My dad asks

"I want to work for as long as I can" I say "it's not like I ever get in dangerous situations"

"Alright, but no more hide and seek, we need to know where you are just in case" my dad says making me chuckle

"Ok I'll work from your locker room" I say "that way you both know where I am"

"At least I know Dolph can't get near you in there" Damian says and then quickly realises what he's done

"What am I missing?" My dad asks "why do you want to keep her away from Dolph?"

"It's nothing dad, he's just being a pest" I say trying to throw him off

"I wasn't asking you" he says "Damian answer my question"

"He uh, he pulled her into a room a couple of days a go and got in her face because she wouldn't help him get time with you" he says "when she walked away he shoved her and she landed over a table, that how we ended up finding out she was pregnant, I had to take her to the ER becuase she was in a lot of pain"

"God damn rat bastard putting his hand on my little girl" he growls "I'll give him some time, some time to pick his teeth up off the floor"

"Dad please don't, just leave it, I'm fine, the baby is fine" I say pleading with him

"That doesn't change the fact that he couldmof seriously hurt you and the baby and he shouldn't be putting his hands on you" he says "maybe I'll just go have a word with Steph"

"If you do that you'll make things worse" I say "I just want peace, I don't need stress"

"Fine but he comes near you again I end him" he says "and I'm sure Damian will be more than willing to help me"

"Absolutley" Damian says "I won't have him putting his hands on my wife, he does it again I'm with you Mark"
