Who was he? Amanda had only been pregnant for a month and this was her first time. It couldn't be an extra early delivery. The baby wouldn't be alive if that happened. Why am i even thinking about this child being Amanda's son. It's impossible in so many ways. I looked at his blonde straight hair and stared into his deep blue eyes.

"Zoey you're here!" my mum exclaimed.

"Of course! Where is Amanda and whose this little guy?" I asked.

"He's your youngest cousin from Australia." she said introducing him.

"How come I have never heard or seen him?" I asked still in the doorway.

"He's only 4 years old and everything was a surprise. Your aunt Caroline gave birth to him and well everything is a blur." she said too quickly.

"Ok can I come in?" I asked.

"Sorry. Yes you can come in." she said leading me to the couch. I sat next to the boy.

"What's your name?" I asked him.

"Kevin." he replied with a smile.

"Mum can you tell me why he is here?" I asked.

"I'll tell you. I'm here for a small vacation. I'll be staying until my mom comes back." he said.

"Well then you make sure you have a lot of fun while you're here." I said heading into the kitchen.

"Aunt Caroline died right." I said. It was pretty obvious when you piece the information together. Plus my mud is terrible at hiding secrets.

"Yeah she died when he was three. His dad was taking care of him and then he sent him here last week. After that I was taking care of him." she said looking at the glass plates.

"That's horrible." I said.

"Well your dad, Amanda, and I plan on keeping him really happy. Could you chip in?" she said.

"Sure. Anyway where is Amanda?" I asked.

"Upstairs. Hailey is there too with her fried chicken." mum said. I laughed as I exited the kitchen.

I walked upstairs and found myself face to face with Amanda. Her belly didn't show that much, but it will in a couple of months.

"Hey." Amanda said. I waved.

"Can I touch it?" I asked.

"Touch what?" she asked taking a seat on the bed. Hailey was chewing slowly on her chicken while I reached out and touched her stomach. You could feel a small thumping.

Wait until a couple of months and then you'll see how much it thumps. "So when are you two going?" Amanda asked.

"Today we're going to pack clothes for at least a month. Maybe less since we could wash them. The cruise will be leaving London in a month." I said.

"That sounds tiring, but it will be worth it when you guys enjoy the one month vacation." she said.

"I really can't wait." Hailey replied.

"Me either. Oh and I just found out that we got neighbors in the front of our flat." I said.

"Old or young?" Hailey asked.

"I don't know. I just saw there backs."

"Well I hope they're nice." Amanda said.

"Who knows? Anyway I forgot to tell you, but congrats."

"Baby boy or girl?" Hailey asked.

"I don't know. I still have to go get the reports. Plus they can't tell until it gets a few months older." Amanda said.

"What do you want it to be?" I asked.

"A princess." said a voice behind us. I turned around and found my brother-in-law.

"I want a boy." Amanda said. Joe gave her a peck on the forehead. They were really cute together. I smiled.

"Well see what happens when the time comes."

"Indeed we will." Amanda said.

I sighed while I struggled to take out my suitcase. Hailey was standing there looking at me.

"Do we have to pack now?" Hailey asked.

"Yes now get packing." I said putting in bikinis, shorts, and cute shirts and tank tops.

"Fine." she said walking into her room.

*****************

"When we leave in a month, should we wear our bikinis under our clothes?" I asked taking a seat on the sofa.

"No we have rooms. We're not going to be sleeping on the deck." she said.

"You and your sarcasm."

The doorbell rang and I went to answer it. Our pizza was here. This last month in our flat, until we hit the cruise would be short. I couldn't wait until we boarded.
