Our Secret Identities Chapter 57 – Uncle Barry
Emmett shows up at Peterson Properties a little under the half hour as stated. Walking into Richard’s office; “Why do I need to be here?” he asks, taking a seat in front of Richard’s desk. “You are doing Simone’s office space.”“I thought you preferred to be kept informed” Richard explains, picking up his phone and messaging Barry to come back to his office. “I’m informing you.”Shaking his head; Emmett knew there was something else going on; he just didn’t know what. As he was going to question further, Barry walks through the door. Emmett recognises him, but is unable to place where he knew him from. ‘I know him’ Emmett thinks to himself; ‘from where?’“Emms, this is Barry our building foreman” Richard introduces as Emmett offers his hand to shake.“Do I know you from somewhere?” Emmett asks, still trying to figure out how he knew Barry.As Barry was about to answer; Simone walked through the doorway. “We finished early; I came dow…” she begins to say before stopping her sentence; “
Our Secret Identities Chapter 58 – The Day Before the Wedding
Everyone went to bed last night in a happy mood. They caught up on what had been happening over the last 15 years with Barry. Barry was over the moon with Simone’s pregnancy. He asked ‘why did they choose to reveal the pregnancy so soon?’ Simone glared at Emmett; who explained his panic got the better of him when Simone, Richard and Lester were trapped in the elevator.Barry was unaware of what happened and the three of them explained what they had found. Barry wasn’t pleased; people he had work alongside, could do that to them. They left the office; hugging Barry, even Emmett and Richard embraced the man before going home.Simone woke early and was humming to herself as she cooked breakfast; “someone is chirpy this morning” Richard states, coming into the kitchen. He pinches a piece of bacon before leaning on the kitchen counter, laughing at Simone for gently swatting his hand away.“I could say the same to you” Simone says, putting the last of the toast and eggs on the plate before
Our Secret Identities Chapter 59 – The Morning of the Wedding
Waking up the following morning; Simone felt a large arm wrapped around her torso. Turning to face the perpetrator; she sees Emmett sleeping with a grin on his face. “You can stop pretending you are asleep” she states, trying to remove his arm from around her waist.“Nope” Emmett replies; keeping his eyes shut. “You are staying right here.”Needing to use the bathroom; “You can clean up the mess if I can’t go to the toilet” Simone huffs, trying to remove his arm again. Emmett gives her a peck on the cheek before releasing his arms and she quickly races to the bathroom. “What are you doing here?” she calls out to him.Emmett waited for her to come out of the bathroom before he answered. When she did, she stood next to him; tapping her foot. “I couldn’t sleep. I messaged Tiff after I got your message yesterday. She told me where the spare key was and what room you were sleeping in” he explains grabbing her around the waist and pulling her back into bed. “I held out as long as I could” h
Our Secret Identities Chapter 60 – The Wedding; Take 2

Todd heads over to take their photo; while they wait for Leona to arrive.As the guests start to arrive; Sonia and Ashleigh head out to conduct interviews and take photos as the four ushers they hired showed everyone to their seats; checking off names on their list. One of the ushers runs up to Drake; “There’s a man and a woman not on the list by the name of Paul and Sylvia Peterson asking to be seated. They are claiming to be your parents” the young usher says.Richard makes a grunt as Drake narrows his eyes at the couple holding up the line. “I’ll handle this” he smiles at the young man. Walking to the front of the line; “Only invited guests are allowed past this point. The last news report didn’t h
Our Secret Identities Chapter 61 – The Reception
All the guests headed to the Plaza Hotel as Drake, Leona and the rest of the wedding party were taken to a separate part of the park to have their photos taken by Todd. “Why not use his services, since we employ him” Lester laughs as the limousine pulls up at the other side of the park.“I already have your father, Mr and Mrs Walker and Mr and Mrs Whitehouse here for photos” Todd states, as the party step out of the limousine and see their family members standing around waiting for them. “The park officials have closed off the area for us.”“Whose photo do you want first?” Emmett asks, looking around at the group of people.“Can I have the bride and her father to begin with” Todd says; placing them into a few different poses and taking numerous shots of the pair.“Now I know how you feel in front of a camera” Phil laughs as Todd calls Emmett over to be in a picture with them. “And don’t worry. I had a good chat with Barry before you kids got here. We have sorted out our differences.”
Our Secret Identities Chapter 62 – Amniocentesis
Emmett decided he wanted to go to Simone’s first antenatal appointment; even though she didn’t think it was necessary. “Regardless; I don’t want to be one of these fathers that aren’t involved in their child’s life” Emmett states as the pair get out of the car at the hospital. “It’s still my child, even though it’s in your body.” “From what I’m told; nothing interesting is being done” Simone says as they walk up to the reception desk. “Doesn’t matter; it’s still our baby” he argues as the nurse behind the desk asks them to sit in the waiting area. “And I don’t want to call the baby an it. I want to call it a he or her.” “You want to find out the sex?” Simone asks, astonished by his comment. “I thought you wanted to wait until the baby was born to find out the sex.” “Mrs Peterson?” A nurse calls out at the doorway of the waiting room. “No” he whispers as they walk into an examination room. “I want to be prepared.” “Mr and Mrs Peterson” Dr Stacey Gray says, coming into the examinat

The up side; they got to see their baby on the big screen when they did the ultrasound for the amnio.Walking into the office; Lester barges in behind him. “What took you so long?” Lester shouts, taking his usual seat on the sofa. “Barry has been up here looking for you three times and I have a dilemma.”“Is everything going ok on the third floor?” Emmett asks; starting to head out the door again. “I can’t have Simone stressed for the next few days.”“Yeah, yeah, it’s fine. He wanted to say hi or something” Lester frowns at him.“And what’s your dilemma?” Emmett asks, trying not to laugh at him. Lester’s previous idea of a dilemma is who he was going to have lunch with. ‘God, I hope it’s not that’ Emmett says to himself; thinking of Caitlyn.“Caitlyn’s gone overseas for two months. What am I going

Finishing the last meeting, Richard turned on his computer to begin drawing up some floor plans in his CAD program when Paul barges through the doorway “What the fuck are you and Emmett trying to pull?” Paul screams at Richard, his face going red.“I don’t know what you are talking about?” Richard says calmly, pushing the button under his desk for Tyrone to come into the office. Emmett was adamant he got the button installed for his own safety.“Don’t give me that” Paul snarls, raising his hand to hit his son. Before he could strike, he
