Unexpected turn of events (the script, Glen Power fanfiction)

Chapter 9

"me?" Glen asked in surprise as he rose from where he sat on the couch. "Yes." Kate chuckled, walking up to him as he came to her and towards the stairs. She leads him upstairs, having handed him the book already. "He'd only been upstairs once the night he'd stayed over. When he took the shower the next morning in her guest bathroom. But so far he hadn't seen Flynn's bedroom or hers.

as she entered his room and he walked in after her, his eyes roaming all over the room. The room was painted in a dark blue colour on one side with stars and moon stickers giving off a soft glow. The other walls were painted in a soft khaki green with dinosaurs all over. "He loves space and dinosaurs." She explained, watching as Glen gazed across the room.

"It's amazing." he grinned back at her as he went to sit on the edge of his son's bed. The duvet of a moon and a little rabbit in an astronaut uniform.

Leaning against the head of the bed, he pulled the book Lulu and the Brontosaurus. open and started reading the book about the dinosaur on adventures. He could feel and hear Kate watching them from the doorway. Chuckling softly when he made the right noise, giggling when Arthur pointed something out to Glen.

It almost brought tears to his eyes as he sat with his arm around his son. He'd always travelled and toured around the world. He'd had this valuable time with his son Luke till he was nine. And then he broke up with his ex and the band had kicked off. He ex-had never really felt right, but she'd gotten pregnant shortly after getting together out of high school. And he'd done the right thing. Kate was maybe a similar story, but Kate had felt right, something he'd never felt with his ex.

She'd fallen right into his world, falling in front of him on that beach, the first day of him being in Greece. It had been amazing when he helped her after having tripped over his bag on the beach. The moment they had touched a shiver had run down their spines. As he got to know her he knew that she was everything that he'd ever wanted in a woman, without even realising it. And from that moment on, they'd spent every waking moment together. Grew closer to each other, fallen in love with each other. he'd fallen head over heels for this Brunette with beautiful blue-greyish eyes from Belgium.

And then he'd lost his chance of their promises they'd made. The promise of continuing what they had outside of Greece. Of meeting his newborn son, having changed nappies, watching Kate care for their son. Watching her breastfeed and nurture their son. Watch their son grow into a family filled with love and both his parents.

He'd hoped that Kate would give him a second chance. A second chance of still being able to be a family, of letting them get together, letting him have this. He'd never felt more at home than at this moment. With his son leaning into his side, even if he didn't know it as he read him his bedtime story. Kate watching them from the door, giggling and chuckling sometimes.

When he closed the book, he helped Arthur lay down in bed. "Goodnight mummy," Arthur whispered as she walked up to him and bending down to kiss the top of his head. "Goodnight my sweet little boy. I love you," she told him as he wrapped his arms around her neck and giving her a big kiss.

"Goodnight Glen and thanks for reading," Arthur told Glen as it was his turn to give Arthur a kiss on the cheek and hug him. "Anytime kid. Goodnight little one," he whispered, kissing the top of his head in a similar manner to Kate. He had to fight the urge to tell him that he loved him.

Kate closed the door softly after them before turning to Glen as they stood in the hallway.

"Thanks for that," Kate whispered giving him a soft smile as she leant against the wall with her back. "Your welcome. I should be the one thanking you," he told her as he took a step up to her.

"I think he might know without even knowing it." Kate pointed out as she gave a subtle nod in the door that led to Arthur's room.

"I think so too." he agreed with a small sigh as he nodded his head, a smile on his face. "I should probably go home as well," he told her as she nodded her head, her breathing already quickened by how close they were to each other. as she tried to turn she tripped on a toy on the floor and fell straight into Glen's chest, just in time for him to catch her as his arms wrapped around her waist.
