Timothy
A/N: This is a chapter where Timothy is talking and what he went through, and felt when Shelagh and Patrick told him he was going to be a big brother again. This also plays into my other stories, The Noakes and The Turners later on live under one roof.
I woke up like I did everyday, mum opened my curtains and set my leg braces by my bed.
She gave me a kiss and told me that breakfast would be ready in ten, then proceeded on to Angela's room. I got dressed and brushed my teeth, then combed my hair followed by brylcreem just like dad. Mum made eggs and bacon for dad and I and decided to skip herself, she said her stomach hurt so she would pass. I ate quickly, gave Angie a kiss and ran out the door to school.
When I returned home Sister Evangelina was sitting on the step waiting for me. When she said that we were going to Nonnatus I panicked although I wouldn't show it. Something was wrong with mum, she was sick this morning. Was it me? Did I do something? We walked into the house and Granny was walking down the stairs dropped my items and tried to run up the stairs but my braces made me trip and she caught me. I started crying and wondered why they wouldn't let me see mum, I needed her and they wouldn't let me.
"Timothy why don't we wait for your father downstairs?" Sister Julienne asked me, I nodded and we played tiddly winks in the sitting room. The we heard a thump and dad scream, Granny gave a smile and I was clueless to my surroundings.
There was a knock on the door I said "I'll get it." and got up I opened the door thinking it would be some worried husband needing help, but no, It was The Noakes. I greeted them and reached up to take Freddie, how I wished I could grow up in the same house as them. I gave a sigh and walked into the kitchen with Fred's and set out the biscuits for tea. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs and quickly handed Freddie over to Auntie, I tried to run but I nearly tripped. I shed my braces off and for the first time forgot the effects of my Polio, I ran to mum and hugged her with all my might and began to cry.
"TIMOTHY!" Mum yelled, I watched as her face turned to shock and I looked down.
I did it, I didn't walk I ran! Dad picked me up and spun me around, I think everyone in Nonnatus cried when I took those steps. They said I wouldn't walk again, but I did.
Everyone sat down around the fire and we had hot chocolate, YUM!
Auntie and Unka had strange looks on their faces and so did mum and dad, I knew there was something wrong.
And then they said it…
Was it true? Was I really getting two more sibling? Chummy and Peter were having twins as well? The room felt like it was spinning I nearly passed out, right there on the floor.
Everything had been moving so fast, mum was pregnant and so was Auntie Chummy and we were moving into a big house together. When I saw my room I almost jumped for joy, it was so big and I even had my own desk! It was at this moment I knew that we are going to be okay, maybe even more than okay.
