~Kitty's POV~

My eyes fluttered open. I turned in Anthony's embrace and looked into his deep brown eyes. We're still on our honey moon, four days into the first cruise towards Hawaii.

We decided to take a cruise there. One week towards the destination, one week in the destination and one week back. Paris, Caspar, Melody and Heidi are staying back home at the ranch, with Olivia, Ben, Felix and Harriet. There looking after the animals and the children.

Anthony's eyes fluttered open and i smiled, kissing him softly. He kissed me back and i pulled away, smiling at my husband.

"Good Morning" He said, in a gruff, sexy morning voice.

"Morning" I said, covering my naked body with a blanket and getting up out of bed, tugging on some under-clothes and looking at Anthony, who was staring at me with lustful eyes and i giggled, throwing his boxers at him and slipping on a outfit. Anthony groaned and did the same, lazily getting dressed. He clasped my hand as we walked outside the room. Anthony went to breakfast as i went to the tanning bay.

After about 10 minutes of looking out to sea, a pair of large, tanned and toned arms snuck around my waist, kissing and sucking at my neck. I giggled and moaned a little, turning in his protective embrace as he held me tighter. I heard the quiet classical music from the bar mixed with the sea splashing against the boat. I breathed out as the fresh sea air met my airways.

Anthony held my hands as he stopped kissing my neck. We just stood there, listening to the music and the splashing waves.

"I love you" He muttered into my neck.

"I love you to" I smiled. He's been so sweet these past few days. He's said to me over and over 'Kiss her like an angel in the morning and love her like the devil when you get home' I think he's been living by those words for the past few days. Ever since we married on the beach, he's manned up. We eloped a few weeks before the twins were born, so they wouldn't be bastard children and be born out of wedlock. Sure, he manned up then, but nothing like this.

"Kiss her like an angel in the morning and love her like the devil when you get home" He whispered again. There he goes again, whispering those words to me. It kinda gets annoying.

"Would you quit saying that?" I asked jokingly. He looked at me.

"No" He said simply, kissing me quickly. I huffed and he wrapped a arm around me, taking me over to the bar and speaking to the man behind it.

"Hi, can we have two mango strawberry crème smoothies?" He asked, the man nodded and started to cut up fruit.

"So" He said, circling me in his arms again. "How do you want to celebrate our honeymoon then?" He asked me, i giggled and kissed him briefly.

"I have one or two ideas" I giggled, he grinned and kissed my neck.

"I bet you do" He said, kissing me. I turned around and grabbed my drink, biting the straw as he looked at me lustfully. I knew i had a dark look in my eyes too. Anthony groped my butt as he grabbed his own drink and put a few dollars on the counter top for the man.

"I bet you do too" I giggled, sipping on my drink again.

"You know it" He grinned, his hand slipping under my dress. He kissed my fiercely and i jumped up, placing our drinks on the counter top and wrapped my legs around his waist. My hands tangled in his hair and he wrapped his arms around my waist. We kept kissing hungrily and we were both moaning. We didn't get to do this much. The children are our main priority, we take care of them 24/7. We don't get to act like couples normally do. Michael, Melody, Heidi and Paris are our worlds, we don't get to do this often, so now is the perfect time.

"Baby" He moaned, pulling away from me and resting his fore head on mine. "I love you, so much" He moaned.

"I love you too. You're my life"

If only i knew what i know now. If only i knew that nothing stays the same forever.

~Nobody's POV~

"Caspar! Melody! Heidi! Are you ready for you're mom and dad to come home?" Annabeth called to her god-children 3 weeks after Kitty and Anthony's wedding. She finished changing Paris and unplugged her from her machine. Annabeth gently picked her up from her changing table and cradled the five week old baby girl in her arms, walking towards the three five year olds who were in the playroom in the basement.

"Guys! We need to get going! You're mommy and daddy are coming home today!" She said, exhausted over looking after 4 kids on her own. Olivia, Ben, Felix and Harriet had gone home a few hours ago and she was left with the children.

"Okay auntie Annabeth" Heidi said, starting to put her colourful blocks into the large white box. Melody and Caspar helped her after putting their stuffed toys and action figures into their individual boxes.

"Lets go" She said, getting everybody up and walking towards the front door. She grabbed Paris' bag and put it on her shoulder, opening the door for the three five year olds and closing it after her. Leo was with Olivia.

After putting the children in their seats and getting Paris strapped inside carefully, she started to drive to the boat harbour where Kitty and Anthony would be.

Paris was a little crabby, after having the tube in her nose and mouth for a long time, but she'd have to stick with it until her first birthday, because she was going to have operations every two months to connect her stomach and oesophagus together. She needed six. Kitty was going to take her to her first one. The operation she had one the day she was born was to sew up her oesophagus and stomach, to stop eternal bleeding, and to strengthen the oesophagus, and put the tubes into her body, to help her consume food and water.

Caspar and Melody were sharing a little box of apples and sipping on fruit juice boxes. Their half sister was staring out of the window in her own little world. The twins were talking to Paris, who was garbling back to them, as if she was having conversations with them. Melody was giggling at the baby and Heidi was smiling slightly, still staring. Her medium length dark hair was flowing carelessly around her shoulders as she stared. Anthony said he did that when he was younger.

Annabeth was smiling at her god-children, enjoying the calmness they brought her. She sighed happily, hearing the giggles coming from the 5 year olds.

After a few minutes, the harbour was in view. There was a massive cruise ship in the blue sea, along with about 200 people coming off the boat, paparazzi were there, meaning Kitty and Anthony were there too. After she drove down the large hill, they were at the waiting space. Suddenly, the paparazzi dispursed a little and Annabeth saw Kitty's security holding them back.

Soon enough, the brunette walked off the boat, holding hands with Anthony. Kitty went to her fans and spoke to about seven of them, signing things and taking pictures with them. Anthony stood behind her, staring at his wife with a smile on his face. She slowly went along the circle, being protected by her security and spoke to all her fans. She signed autographs and had one on one time with as many people as she could, before letting the paparazzi have a few pictures of her.

After about 10 minutes, she managed to get away and the security guarded her and Anthony as they walked near the car. Annabeth got out and hugged her best friend tightly one she reached her.

"Kitty!" She exclaimed, hugging her "I missed you!" She smiled

"I missed you too 'Nanabeth" She laughed. "Now, where's my babies?" She asked, smiling brightly. Annabeth smiled back and went to get Paris first, opening the door and unbuckling the baby and walking her over to her mother and father.

"My baby!" Kitty gushed, rushing forwards and gently grabbing Paris, kissing her over and over again.

"I missed you, Princess" Kitty said to Paris as she held her up in the air, making the baby shriek and laugh in happiness of being reunited with her mother.

"Hey baby" Anthony said as Kitty gently passed Paris over to her father. She could tell Paris was going to be a Daddy's girl, but she seemed happier on Kitty's presence, so, who knows?

"Mommy!" Caspar cried, jumping out of the car and running over to Kitty and jumping in her arms. Kitty laughed at her son's enthusiasm and placed him on her hip.

"Hey buddy" She smiled as Caspar held her tightly.

"I missed you Mommy" He said, hugging her again.

"I missed you too buddy" She smiled, putting her only son down and he rushed to Anthony, hugging his legs as he passed Paris over to Annabeth.

"Daddy!" He smiled.

"Mommy!" Kitty heard two female voices exclaim, she turned and saw Melody and Heidi running her way, holding hands with bright smiles on their faces.

"My two little Princesses" Kitty smiled, kneeling down to her two daughters as they hugged her tightly.

"We missed you mommy" They said at the same time, making their mother laugh.

"I missed you two Princesses" She said, kissing them both on their noses, making them giggle in their high pitched voices.

"Let's go home Mommy, auntie Annabeth helped us make special cookies for you and Daddy" Melody said to their mother, making her smile at them.

"Okay, let's go"

If only Kitty knew what she had just done to herself and her family by allowing them to go home.

~Kitty's POV~

I was driving home, playing with Paris whenever we stopped and i could hear Anthony telling the children about what we did on out honeymoon, but he didn't tell them about the, umm, adult things we did.

Paris was gargling away happily, yet her voice was a little strained because of the tube in her nose and throat. I feel so bad for my baby, but it's what we have to do to keep her alive. I'm taking her to the hospital tomorrow, just for a check up about all the things that could be wrong for her, and about what the surgery will do for her in about a month. She's still seven weeks premature, technically. She was thirteen weeks premature when she came out of me, i could hold her in one arm. The reason she was only in the hospital for two weeks is because Anthony and i agreed to fly specialists to the hospital and get her better quicker. It worked, the normal doctor said that if we let them take care of her, she would've been in there for 10 weeks. She's a fighter. I know she'll pull through.

Caspar and Melody were talking happily to Annabeth when we got home, and Anthony was holding Heidi in his arms. She missed him more then her half sisters and half brother. Anthony told me it's because Heidi looks so much different than Caspar and Melody, that she feels left out. But we've tried to change that because Melody and Heidi share a room and Caspar has similar interests to her. We've put a third bed inside the girls' room because when Paris turns two, and all the problems are gone from her, except some teeth problems and eye problems in the future, there going to share a room to make them closer. We actually want another boy because Caspar told me he gets lonely being the only boy, but I've basically raised Leo, so if i can't have any more kids because i didn't know i was pregnant with Paris, he can sleep with Caspar.

Leo's spending a few days at Olivia and Ben's, i wanted him to spend time with his other family members as well. He only considers me his sister, but i want that to change. He's 9 now, just about to turn 10. He's growing into a handsome, mature boy. I constantly remind him I'm his sister, not his mother, because he sometimes calls me "Mom". I wouldn't mind normally, but i know what happened to our parents, i don't want them to be replaced by me.

When i got home, i drove inside the gates and put the car in the garage. I quickly got out and got Paris out of her seat. She was getting a little fussy and cranky. Annabeth and Anthony got Heidi and the twins out of the car and we all walked towards the house. Anthony opened the door and we walked inside. It still hasn't been redecorated in the six years we've been here, the only things that have are the children's rooms.

We changed the twins baby bedroom into a schooling room, and Leo has his own which we got for him when i was pregnant with Melody and Caspar. We're sending him to a private school when he goes to high school though, i want him to have friends and girlfriends, but he's going to become a heart breaker. I just know him.

We had a 3 bedded bedroom for the girls. It hasn't really changed, but Heidi used to sleep on the left bed, but since Paris was born, I had Annabeth explain to her that she needs to put her baby sister first and go up top. Which, i was told, she had no problem with. Paris and Melody have their beds and so does Heidi, she has a cool slide type of bed which was away from their girl gang den.

I changed Heidi's baby bedroom into a office for me. Anthony had his own, but his was in the guest house on the other side of the garden. Annabeth had her own office, because she was starting up her own business. She was going into charity work and i was going to help her fund it. It was to give children a day to be free from illnesses or anything like that. So she'd take them to carnivals, give them healthy and filling meals and take care of 20-30 children at a time. It was really sweet.

I came out of my trance when i heard Caspar run into the living room and up to his room, coming back down a few minutes later, holding Lucas in his arms. The dog yapped happily when he saw me. I smiled happily and looked into the brown eyes of my eldest child. He smiled brightly and i smiled back. He put the dog down and once everybody was inside, Annabeth took Paris from me and took her to her room. Once his sister was away from me, Caspar ran towards me and hugged my waist tightly, as if only now realising i was back.

"Mama, you're home" He smiled. I laughed and kissed his head. He makes me so happy. I love my son to death. Home is where he is most comfortable.

Home is where his heart is.

~5 Weeks Later~

~Kitty's POV~

"Come on baby girl, time to see the doctor" I said to Paris, getting her tiny body out of the crib after I woke up. I don't think she's slept because it's 3 AM and i can't give her anything to eat, she has her first surgery today. I'm so nervous. Neither the twins or Heidi needed surgery after they were born, so this is scary for me.

Paris opened her eyes and started to cry. I picked her up and cooed, trying to calm her down. It was understandable though as she hasn't eaten today or last night, it's dangerous for her to eat and have surgery. She's bound to be cranky seeing as though i haven't fed her, and she hasn't slept. Paris stopped crying and i smiled down at her, taking a towel from her closet and going into her bathroom. It used to be Caspar's and Melody's, but they have their own ensuetes. Paris needs this one.

I half filled the small bathtub and gently placed her inside. Immediately, she smiled and started splashing. I giggled and got the baby soap, gently washing her and being careful when i got to her tubes. I washed her thin, short hair quickly and gently. Rinsing the soap away from her, i lifted my little Princess out of the water and covered her in the towel, which i had been heating on the radiator. She cooed when she felt the warmth and i sat her up in my arms, laying her on the changing table and going back to her closet and quickly picking out her clothes for the day. I also quickly picked out a blanket and toy to keep her entertained.

"Come on Baby girl" I said, picking her up and grabbing a diaper for her, i quickly put it on her and she giggled, tugging at my hair gently "We need to get you dressed for the doctor to make you better" I said. I put on her shirt, pants, socks and necklace. She smiled, closing her eyes as i handed her the little toy i got for her. I picked her up and cradled her in my arms, avoiding the tube stuck in her nose. I gently placed her in the carrier and strapped her inside. I placed the blanket on her and looked at her smiling face. I picked up the carrier and she squealed, giggling in her adorable high pitched voice. I snatched a hat for her and walked downstairs with the handle of the carrier in the crease of my fore arm.

I got to the kitchen and turned on the lights, placing Paris on the counter, kissing her head as i opened the fridge, picking out some fruit and cutting it, occasionally turning and pulling funny faces at Paris. When i finished, i placed the fruit salad in the fridge with some orange juice. I turned and let Paris lick some mango juice from my fingers. The doctor said that's a good place to start, for her to start eating normally in the future. But for now, we have to stick to juice and milks. After she licked my fingers, I placed a piece of vegan whole-wheat bread into the toaster and got the sunflower spread out from the fridge. I made some coffee and toast for my breakfast and got my phone from the living room.

After putting it in my pocket, i put the pet's food in their bowls and got Paris from the kitchen, carrying her outside into the dark early morning sky and walking over to the 5 seater car. Normally i would've taken the 2 seater car, but i don't want to put a still technically 3-week-premature baby in a car that doesn't have a roof.

I unlocked the door and strapped Paris' carrier inside, before closing the door and getting myself inside, putting my coffee in the drinks holder and taking a bite of my toast.

"We're going to the doctor's baby girl!" I said in a baby voice, tickling her cheek slightly as i got strapped inside. "He's gonna make you better!" I said in the same voice. I put my phone in the filming holder and turned it on, proceeding to film myself.

"Hey everybody!" I waved, Paris giggled, and i smiled "So as you know, i haven't done this in a long ass time, so I'm going to start now. The last time you saw us was when Paris was in the hospital, when she was just a tiny little baby" I said, starting to drive and talk at the same time.

"She's grown alot, hasn't she?" I asked, looking at Paris giggling, before focusing completely on driving.

"So, Paris is having her first surgery today. It's to connect the stomach and oesophagus together. She's having six of them. This is the first. She had one when she was first born, to stop eternal bleeding and put something in her oesophagus to make it stronger. She also had like a" I started think of what it was called.

"Tube in her stomach and nose" I finally said "To help her get food and water into her body" I said, before starting to ramble about the twins and Heidi for about seven minutes, before pulling into a car park space and stopping recording. I turned off the car and called my security to come to the hospital. You can never be too careful when you have kids.

Soon, after fixing my clothes, which consisted of a pair of black leggings; a black scrappy top; a light grey waterfall cardigan; a light grey circular scarf and a pair of knee high brown, vegan leather boots, and putting my dark brown, slightly wavy, hair to the left side, and put a little make up on, 7 large men dressed in black came up to me and I got out of the car, walking past the trunk and over to Paris' side. I got her out of the car and put the handle in the crease of my fore arm.

"Good morning Mrs. Pierce" Mack said to me as I locked the door.

"Good morning Mack" I said, starting to walk towards the hospital and the 7 men crowded around me, my assistant, Emily Grace, passed me Paris' baby bag and I took it from her, placing it over my shoulder and she passed me my hot coffee.

I sipped on it as we crossed the road. I'd finished the toast when I was rambling in the car.

Emily opened the door for us as the security crowded closer.

"Hey can you take these?" I asked, passing over Paris and the drink. She nodded and i took Paris from her, cradling her close as we walked towards the children's ward.

After about 10 minutes of walking, I signed Paris into the clinic and we walked into the consultant room. Security and Emily Grace stayed outside.

"Hello Mrs. Pierce, hello Paris" doctor Hartnill said to us as we walked inside.

"Hello doctor" I said, taking a seat and I sat Paris on my lap. She cooed and turned around, standing on my thighs and playing with my hair.

"Is this the first surgery she's had since the re-constructive one when she was born?" He asked. I nodded.

"Okay, are you ready to sign her over to us? " He asked as he wrote some things down.

I took a deep breath and nodded. Leaning forward, I slowly signed the dotted line on the bottom of the paper. I took a deep shaky breath out and looked down at my baby girl, who was smiling up at me.

"She'll be fine, Mrs. Pierce. Your doing the right thing for her" Doctor Hartnill told me. I sniffed and nodded, wiping my eyes before standing up with Paris in my arms. I walked over to the doctor's arms and placed my tiny baby girl in them. I kissed her head and looked up at the doctor, who smiled at me before leaving the room.

I don't know if I can do this again.

~Anthony's POV~

I woke up, letting my brown eyes flutter open. I sat up and yawned, stretching my arms and looking over to the unfamiliar space on Kitty's side of the bed. She told me to sleep and she'd take Paris to the hospital. I've been so tired lately, my manager, Paul, got me a job on a film. We're going to start filming soon, just finishing up with the read-through.

"Daddy!" Melody cried, opening the door and jumping on our bed and quickly crawled into my arms, hiding under the warm covers.

"Melody? Princess what's wrong?" I asked as she peaked her head out from under the covers and i looked into her iguana blue eyes of my daughter.

"Caspar's got a worm from the back garden and he's teasing us with it! And uncle Leo's throwing mud from the garden at us!" She squeaked. Heidi followed her half sister and she jumped on the other side of me, wrapping her little olive skinned arms around me torso.

"Girls, let Daddy get dressed and then he'll stop Caspar and uncle Leo from getting you too" I said and Heidi nodded, squirming over my body and over to her sister. Both girls, Melody dressed in a white summer dress with rainbow tassels on the bottom and white sandals adorning her feet, Heidi dressed in a white button down t shirt, with a grey skirt and black thin belt, hugged each other as i got up out of bed, quickly pulling a pair of blue jeans, a white v neck, a plaid shirt and a beanie. I quickly went into the bathroom and changed clothes, washing my face and teeth before going out and seeing my two daughters sitting on my bed, the bed made up neatly and they were sitting on the edge of it.

"Daddy!" They cheered. I chuckled and lifted them both off the bed, carrying Heidi on my hip. Her thin black sweater touched my arm as her knee high black socks and grey button pumps touching my left hip. Melody held my hand as she ran down the corridor with us.

"Caspar, what are you doing to you're sisters?" I asked as we entered the kitchen.

Him and Leo were innocently eating sandwiches and talking. Even though Leo's 10 and Caspar's 5, they could still talk the same as Leo had a few learning difficulties. But Kitty's getting him an appointment with the doctor to see what's wrong. He's told her and Olivia that he wants to be normal because he doesn't like not being normal. We all tried to tell him that he's perfect the way he is and shouldn't try to change who he is, but he wanted this so much, we didn't want to take that away from him.

Olivia said she'd take him, and Ben would take care of the children whilst me and Kitty took care of Paris' doctors appointment.

"Nothing Daddy. We were just playing in the garden" He said, pulling the innocent face. I looked down at his twin sister and he stuck his tongue out at Heidi, which i saw.

"Caspar Michael Pierce, what did you do to you're sisters?" I asked loudly, he looked down.

"I threw the worm at them" He murmured.

"Then why did you lie to me and say you did nothing?" I asked him.

"I don't know" He murmured, still looking down "Sorry Daddy" He murmured.

"It's okay. But it isn't me you should be apologizing to" I said, putting Heidi down and putting Heidi and Melody shoulder-to-shoulder. Melody was about an inch taller than her half-sister, but they were still shoulder-to-shoulder.

"Sorry Heidi. Sorry Melody" He said, looking them in they eyes.

"Okay, kisses and cuddles" I said, wanting them to love each other. Caspar nodded and kissed Heidi, before cuddling her. He stepped to his left and kissed his twin sister, before hugging her.

I smiled and Leo ate a little more of his sandwich. He was feeling a little left out, so Heidi went over to him and sat in his lap, hugging his neck tightly and kissing his cheek. I smiled.

"Daddy, where's Mommy and Paris?" Melody asked me.

"There at the hospital letting the doctor make Paris better" I told her. She nodded and petted Loki as he trotted past. Caspar walked over to the den and started playing with his action figures.

Melody got a banana and walked over to her brother, starting to eat it as she sipped juice in her water bottle.

~ Around Six Hours Later~

"Hey baby" I said after a few hours. Me and Kitty were on the phone.

"Hey" She sighed. "Paris is out of surgery now, everything went okay. She's in recovery now. She's okay and should be out in a few hours. The children can come and see her too" She said. I nodded and looked at Melody and Caspar who were napping on the floor of the playroom. Heidi was cuddling with her toy rabbit and resting her eyes. I smiled at my children.

"Yeah. We will. There sleeping now and the tutor just started with Leo. " I said, hearing her chuckle from the other line.

"Good" She smiled. "Oh yeah, doctor Hartnill said that Paris will need glasses or contacts when the surgeries are over and there's a 80 percent chance that when she's grown a little and gets teeth, she'll need braces. But I said we'll do anything to get our baby better. What do you say?" She asked, I smiled.

"Yeah, we'll bring her back to life"

~Kitty's POV~

"Bye" I said and closed the phone, looking towards my baby girl, who was sleeping peacefully, wearing a tiny hospital gown and i knew there was a massive line of stitches on her chest and stomach. I feel so bad for her all the time. No child should go through this. I'm determined to help her in every way i can. She's my little miracle. I didn't know i was pregnant with her, and now she's fighting her way through this. I know she's going to be an amazing person.

I looked back up and saw Olivia and Ben walk inside, Harriet and Felix toddling behind them.

"Hey guys" I whispered, yawning. I've been up for sixteen hours and I'm really tired, but I'm not leaving my little princess.

"Hey Kitts" Olivia said quietly, Ben smiled at me.

"Auntie Kitty!" Harriet smiled, jumping into my arms. I chuckled and stood up, picking her up and kissing her on the nose, looking at her in her white shoulder less sweater and light blue jeans, white ballerina flats and frilly socks. I placed her on my hip and looked at Felix, who was holding Olivia's hand. He was wearing a black sweater with green thread, matching sweatpants and lime green trainers, he had a black and green stuffed dog with him. Harriet had a white and blue bunny in her hands. She was playing with my hair as well.

"Hey little one, how are you?" I asked her.

"Good auntie Kitty" She smiled, i put her down and she went over to Ben, holding his hand.

"How's she doing?" Ben asked me once i put Harriet down.

"Okay, i guess. They said we can take her home tonight, just when she wakes up though. Anthony and the children are coming up in a while, the doctors said she'll be awake by then" I said, making Ben nod.

"How are you two handling this?" Olivia asked me.

"I'm not sure. Of coarse, we wish all of this never happened, but that's the hand Paris' been delt. I don't know how Anthony's handling this, he's been so distant lately. He's a really loving father, but when I'm around him, it's like he's hiding something from me" I sighed, standing up as i started to speak. I placed my head in my hands and she half-hugged me.

"It's gonna be okay, just talk to him about it" She said to me, i nodded and sat back down next to Paris. We got her a private room so she doesn't have to be disturbed by the fans. It's really quite cute. Even though the bed made Paris look even smaller than she already was.

After about 30 minutes of talking, Annabeth came in with Leo, Melody, Caspar and Heidi.

"Mommy!" They smiled, running over to me and i smiled, getting off the chair and bending down to their level and i kissed them all and i picked Caspar up and sat him on my lap. He's a momma's boy. He likes this. Melody climbed up on my lap as well and Heidi sat on Paris' bed.

I made them go onto the floor near the couch and they played with the toys, with Harriet and Felix. Me, Leo, Annabeth, Ben and Olivia sat on the couch as a doctor came into the room.

"Where's Anthony?" I whispered to Annabeth as the doctor started taking Paris' wires away from her small body.

"I don't know. He just told me to take the kids to you and he'd be home in the morning" I sighed and nodded, sad that my husband wasn't here. Ever since we came home, he's been strange and i don't like it.

"Mrs. Pierce. Were just going to take her for medical assessment and the removal of access anaesthetic from her body. You can take her home afterwards" The doctor said to me. I nodded and stood up, following the nurses and doctors as they placed Paris on a stretcher and wheeled her out of the room and down the hallway and into a room.

Paris was placed on the bed and people started taking the anaesthetic from Paris' body. They gave her some liquidized food and water. I cleared my throat as they took her vital signs. Everything was normal, she was fine. She was breathing and when i looked down, i saw Paris' eyes starting to flutter.

"Paris?" I whispered as they took her out of the crib and placed her into my arms. A doctor smiled at me and lead me out of the room and i went back to the room my family was in. the children immediately ran over to me and i knelled down, gently showing them their sister for a few months, before walking over to the changing table and pulling out a diaper and some clothes. I quickly changed her and put some fresh clothes on her, being extra careful with her chest and stomach.

When i was done and my baby was dressed, i fed her and gave her some water, before asking Annabeth to being me the carrier. She did and i gently placed her inside, covering her with the blanket and giving her the toy. She gargled sleepily and i smiled, Melody tugged on my leggings and i looked down at her.

"Is Daddy gonna be there when we get back?" She asked me, i sighed quietly.

"I hope so baby girl"

I just want my husband back.

~3 Months Later~

~Kitty's POV~

Paris is 5 months old now. She's just had her 4th surgery and is slowly becoming a normal baby. Everything's going to take longer than a normal person would, but at least she's alive. She's getting food through the tubes still, but they put her stomach in her chest, so she doesn't have the tube in her nose any more. She's a gorgeous baby girl.

It's Michael and Melody's birthday today, there so happy. I've turned 25 as well, and i look pretty good for being a mom of 4. Anthony always says it. Caspar's eyes have turned blue and Melody's have turned brown. It's unusual but the doctor said it's normal for a child's eyes to do that.

I looked up from the newly decorated living room. I walked into the spare room just as i heard footsteps coming from upstairs. The spare room was just a medium sized room with nothing in it, we keep it for birthday's. It's really cute.

David, Amelia, Charlie and Kevin are coming to spend the day here, as well as Olivia, Ben, Harriet and Felix. There exited to see their cousins. Leo is officially normal paced in his education. He doesn't have any more learning difficulties and he's going to to start Junior school in September. Even though I'm going to put him in private school in two years. He's eleven and i don't want him to end up how i was.

Just as i finished the presents in their individual piles, 2 sets of footsteps were heard running down the stairs and hallways. I smiled as i saw Caspar and Melody running inside, holding hands and smiling brightly.

"Mommy!" They cried, jumping into my arms, laughing happily as i put them on my hips.

"Happy birthday babies" I smiled, kissing them on the fore heads. They were in their sleepwear. I smiled at how cute they were.

"Come on, let's go and wake up you're father and sisters" I smiled, holding their hands as we rushed off in the direction of the bedrooms. I slipped my phone in my pocket and took it out as we reached mine and Anthony's door. I turned it on to video and started to talk quietly.

"Hey Guys! It's the twins' birthday today!" I smiled, showing them Melody and Caspar briefly, before turning it back onto me.

"We're going to wake everybody up now, let's see how Anthony's going to react" I said, opening the door, still showing my face.

"Daddy! It's our birthday!" They cried as i opened the door. They jumped onto my bed and climbed onto Anthony and laughed as he groaned unhappily.

"Let Daddy sleep" He groaned. Melody huffed impatiently.

"No. Wake up! We're six!" She cried, shaking him until he sat up. I was trying to stifle in a laugh as i recorded them.

"Okay, okay. I'm up" He said, sitting up and hugging them.

"Happy birthday" He said, kissing their cheeks. I stopped recording as i started to speak.

"How about we go wake up Heidi and Annabeth?" I asked, they giggled and nodded, rushing out of the room.

"What's wrong with you? You've been so distant with me lately" I said to Anthony as he stood up from the bed. He just glared at me, pushing past me and walking out of the room, slipping on a dark blue and white t shirt. I closed my eyes and sighed, fighting tears and sniffling. I let most of my weight fall onto my right leg, placing a hand to my fore head and slowly turning around, forcing a smile and walking off to Melody and Heidi's room.

"Wake her up babies" I whispered after climbing up onto the second floor of the room. Caspar and Melody nodded and climbed into the bed with Heidi

"Wake up Heidi!" They cried, tickling her and shaking her. Heidi groaned and rolled over, slapping their hands away.

"Leave me alone " She groaned.

"No. We're six! We need to party!" Melody cried, Caspar nodded and started poking her cheek.

"Okay, okay. I'm up" She said, sitting up and yawning unhappily. I giggled and turned the camera off. She came out of bed and walked over to me, hugging me. She's so adorable in the mornings. She just wants to be held. I smiled and she squirmed onto my back. I climbed down the ladder with her on my back whilst Anthony did the same with the twins. I have no idea why he's being like this. He's never been like this before, not even when we argue.

"Daddy, Mommy, can we go open presents now?" Melody asked once we were all walking down the hallway.

"Not yet honey, we have to have breakfast and wait for the guests" I said, picking her up and sitting her down on the island. Anthony did the same to Heidi and Caspar. I smiled, closing my eyes and silently sighing as i got out the stuff to make vegan pancakes and fruit. Yeah, we've turned vegan. I give 40% of all my earnings to a charity every month. It changes though, this month it's animal rights and animal welfare, so i saw what happens in a slaughterhouse, and i don't like it, so I'm not gonna support it. This household is vegan and that won't change.

I pulled out all of the ingredients from the fridge and measured all of it out, before putting a pan on the stove and starting to cook some breakfast. I made vegan pancakes with chopped up banana and strawberries, sugar free orange juice, vegan cereal with almond milk for the children. They looked really happy when it came.

I quickly made my way up stairs before i made my own breakfast, checking on Paris, who was touching the stitches on her chest. Poor baby. Her stomach was pulled back down in it's original position and the oesophagus was connected and strong. She was still quite small for her age, having been born 13 weeks premature. But she was always happy, always smiling and acting like a sweet baby. She didn't have the tube in her nose any more, that was removed about 7 months ago. I just have to feed her through the plug in her stomach and abdomen. They made her a swallow mechanism and the next two surgeries are just to make it impossible for the work they've done to disintegrate. We just have to wait for her teeth to grow for her to be able to eat, if everything goes according to plan.

I smiled at my baby and unplugged her from the water machine and lifted her out of the crib, quickly washing her and placing her in a nice, warm outfit. Her doctor said it's possible for her to get really sick, so we have to keep her warm.

I cradled her as i walked over to the kitchen and the twins smiled brightly when they saw her, Heidi was too busy eating. I placed her in the swing and went back to cooking.

I made me, Anthony and Annabeth, who had came down with Leo a few minutes before, smelling the food, vegan pancakes with blueberries and syrup, with a cup of coffee.

Whilst we ate, i kept playing with Paris and Heidi with their toys. Paris seemed to enjoy it, but Heidi was more interested when she finished eating.

Just as we were about to leave the room as the doorbell went, Anthony was standing by the wall, clenching his fist and gently slamming it on the counter when the children left the room.

"Are you okay?" I asked, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. He span around quickly and slammed me on the wall, making me hiss in pain. I've always got a bad back since i was shot.

"W-what are you doing? What's got into you?" I asked, seeing the dark look in his eyes as his hands snaked around to my throat, squeezing it. My eyes grew wide.

"Shut. Up. I am the man of this house. What i say goes. Understand?" He said to me, i didn't answer, just stared at him with fear filled eyes. He's never done this before.

"Speak!" Ge growled, squeezing it tighter. I gasped and nodded.

"Yes." I spluttered out, dropping to my knees as he let go. He grinned, bending down to me.

"It won't be like this for long, Sweetheart" He said, brushing a lock of my hair out of my face, before leaving the room.

"How could you do this to me?" I whispered, rubbing my neck.

~Kitty's POV~

I stood up, sniffling and I rushed up the stairs and into my wardrobe, quickly pulling on a outfit and curling my hair, putting on some make up and leaving the room. I went downstairs and saw Caspar and Melody sitting on the couch. I plastered a fake smile on my face and walked over to them.

"Hey, why don't we get you two dressed for the party?" I asked, making Melody smile brightly.

"Yeah Mommy!" She cheered, Caspar nodded and I took both of their hands, walking back up the stairs and into the children's bathroom. I ran them a bath each and their was a knock at the door.

"Come in" I called and the door opened, Annabeth walked in and smiled at us. Heidi was holding her hand.

"Happy birthday you two" She giggled.

"Thanks auntie Annabeth" Melody said as I placed her in the bathtub, her pj's in the wash basket. Annabeth tied my hair back loosely as I undressed Caspar, placing him inside a separate tub. I did the same with Heidi and placed her inside the third one.

"Auntie Annabeth, can you get us their best clothes please" I asked Annabeth, wrapping a towel robe around myself as I put soap in Melody's hair. She giggled as I did the same with Heidi. They started playing with the bubbles as I washed Caspar's hair and body.

"Where are we going mommy?" Melody asked me as I rinsed the soap out of her hair. Annabeth returned and placed three sets of clothes on the other side of the room. She started washing Heidi's body and I rinsed off Melody.

"That's a surprise Princes" I said as I washed her arm. Annabeth washed Caspar's body and I rinsed off Heidi.

"What are we doing for my birthday, mommy?" Heidi asked me as I lifted Caspar out of the tub and I placed him in a towel and he dried himself off.

"That's a supprise as well" I said. I did the same with the girls and got them a towel in their hair. Caspar put his underwear on as I placed him in his best clothes. A pair of grey jeans, a white button down shirt, a black waistcoat and a black tie. I told him to wait outside as I dressed his sisters. Annabeth went to get Paris. I placed Melody in a pink and white dress with roses on it, pink sandals and a pink hair bow. I put Heidi in a white lace dress with a blue skirt. I placed her feet in some white lace sandals and a blue headband.

After having Caspar brought in, I pulled out the hair dryer and dried all of their hairs. I put a little make up on the girls and styled Caspar's long hair. He likes it when it's long.

"Look at me auntie Annabeth!" Melody cried after we left the bathroom "Mommy made me look like a princess!" She said, jumping into Annabeth arms.

"You look very pretty birthday girl" She said to her, setting her down and looking at Caspar.

"And you look very handsome birthday boy" She said, kissing his cheek, making him blush.

"Stop" He wined, rubbing the lip gloss off his face. Annabeth laughed and Anthony came in, holding onto the carrier with Paris sleeping inside it. Leo stood beside him and held my hand as I shrugged off the robe and let my hair down.

"Come on mommy, Daddy said we're going for our surprise" Michael said to me, taking my other hand and jumping onto my hip. Leo lead me out the door and over to the car, I unlocked it and helped him inside. He took Caspar's hand and strapped him inside the seat. Anthony put the girls in and Annabeth put Paris inside the car and got next to Leo. I got in the front and Anthony got in next to me. I placed sunglasses on my head and started the car, Anthony started to record us.

"Hey guys, so today is Caspar and Melody's birthday and we're taking them to a party. We're meeting Kitty's sisters at the movie theatre, before doing some other surprising things" He said, winking at the children, making me feel nervous inside. I don't know what he's planned.

I just drove to the movie theatre as he had previosly said, pretending to be normal and happy. I knew about the movie theatre, we'd planned this a few weeks before, bit seeing as how he's acting different, i don't know what's happening.

"Get ready kids, mommy and daddy have been planning something special for you two" I said as we pulled into the movie theatre. I had the security come here already.

"Yay!" They cheered, smiling, i turned off the camera and stopped the car, watching as my secrity made the fans move back before getting out of the car and getting the children out. I carried Heidi on my hip and held Paris' carrier with my forearm. Caspar and Melody held onto their fathers hands as me and Annabeth talked.

"He's being distant, have you noticed?" I asked as we walked inside.

"Yeah, he's a good dad, but when he's with yo, something's different about him" She said, well, it looks i'm not the only one who has to pretend everything's okay.

~Anthony's POV~

I held my little angels hands as we walked into the movie theatre. My thumbs kept twitching for the candy in my pockets, but it left it alone. I can't do that to my angels. Well, i will when there not around. Kitty'll cover for me. She always does.

I lied to her about why i cheated almost six years ago. I always do. Let's face it, she wants a loving husband and a happy family, i want the fame, the fortune and the fixes. I can give her what she wants, she gives me what i want.

I do love her, she and the children are my world. But the candy means more and more to me every day. I know i'm killing myself by doing this, but everybody will be fine if i accidentally go too far. Kitty does everything for us. She makes the money, takes care of everyone in the house and had became a mother to her little brother. I can do nothing for us, she does it all. That's why i do this.

"Daddy, what are we watching?" Caspar asked me as Melody sucked her thumb.

"It's a surprise buddy. We'll go in when Mommy, Paris and Auntie Annabeth come back with you're aunts, uncles and cousins" I chuckled, Making Melody squeal in excitement. She loved it when Kitty's sisters come around with her cousins"

"Yay, i miss uncle Kevin and uncle Charlie" Caspar said. He loved my brothers, mainly because he wanted more male company than just me and Leo. I do too, there's too many females in our family. Kevin just had a baby with his girlfriend Mel, Andrew David Pierce, so we're exited to see the baby.

"Grandpa!" Melody suddenly cried, letting go of my hand and running up to my dad. She jumped into his arms, kissing his cheeks. she loved him, so did we all.

"Grandma!" Caspar cried, seeing kitty's sister's adoptive mother, Avril. I didn't know she was coming. They refer to Avril and Ian as 'Grandma and Grampa' as Kitty's parents died when was young.

"Hey buddy. You're getting big. Happy birthday" She said, kissing his cheek.

"Thank you grandma. Where's grandpa?" He asked, jumping down onto the floor.

"That's a surprise" She chuckled. Damn, everybody's saying that to them today.

"Kitty!" I heard a voice exclaim as my wife walked through the door. She looked up as i turned to see who was calling her. It was her sister, Marie.

"Marie!" She grinned, rushing over to her sister and they hugged, being careful about Paris who was in her her carrier, safely bring hung on her mother's forearm.

"There's my baby niece" She smiled, carefully picking Paris up and cradling her tiny body close to her. She murmured something and her eyes fluttered open, she smiled at her aunt and Marie kissed her tiny face. I chuckled and she placed Paris back into the carrier.

"Right, let's watch this movie then" She said happily as a employee lead us into the movie theatre.

We all took our seats as the movie started to play. Maybe i can quickly get some candy into me when nobodies looking.

After the film, and a vegan lunch, we all drove home and Kitty secretly called the house and made sure everything was in place. We took a quick detour and Kitty got another tattoo. It was for Paris. I liked it.

I walked inside the house after zoning out the entire car ride after a little candy. I was sitting in the back after Paris was sitting in my seat. I almost feel something I've never felt for a child. Hatred. I could maybe make the bad feelings for Kitty go away and love her like no other again, just like when we first met, at that party. But no. That kid has to ruin it.

Anyway, once we got into the house, the lights were off, but nobody turned them on. It was strange, but i didn't say anything. We quietly walked over to the party room and told the twins to stay there.

Somebody pulled me over to the other side of the room and suddenly the lights flickered on. I was amazed.

There were to massive birthday cakes in the middle of the two tables, one for Melody, one for Caspar. The tables were filled with food, vegan of course, and there were all of our family in the middle of the room. There was a load of at last 40 presents, 20 wrapped in blue paper, 20 wrapped in pink.

Kitty, me, Annabeth, Heidi, Leo, Dad, Kevin, Charlie, Amelia, Leo, Paris, Marie, Esme, Olivia, Ben, Harriet, Felix, Melissa and Andrew were all here, aswel as Avril and Ian.

"Surprise!" We all exclaimed, party hats on our heads and two being placed on top of their heads. They laughed and hugged me and Kitty, making her smile.

"Time for the birthday kids to open their presents" Kitty smiled, leading them over to their piles.

After the birthday party, i made sure everybody was in bed. Well, Kitty was singing a lullaby to Melody, just finished singing to Heidi.

"I love you my princess" She whispered, moving some of her dark blonde hair out of her face and kissing her head. Loki was sleeping at her feet and she held a stuffed bear close to her as she slept.

"Caspar, time to sleep" i heard her say to our son.

"Okay, mommy" He said, closing his eyes and holding his new action figures close to him.

"Rock-a-bye, baby

In the treetop.

When the wind blows,

The cradle will rock.

When the bough breaks,

The cradle will fall,

And down will come baby,

Cradle and -a-bye, baby

In the treetop.

When the wind blows,

The cradle will rock.

When the bough breaks,

The cradle will fall,

And down will come baby,

Cradle and all." She finished, Caspar was sound asleep after that. She kissed his head and did the same thing with Paris, before going to our bed and falling asleep quickly.

"I'm sorry sweetheart" I whispered, kissing her cheek and leaving the house. I took the sports car and a stack of cash, going to a near bye lane about 20 minutes from the house.

Jacob was waiting for me, a smirk on his face and a bag of white powder in his hands. I got out of the car and walked over to him, handing $2000 and he gave me the bag. Sighing, i walked back to the car, looking at the bag in my lap, my eyes wide and fingers shaking.

"Come to papa, i love my candy"

~2 Months Later~

~Kitty's POV~

Paris' last surgery is in two days. She's healing fast and growing every day. We're packing up our things for a stay in Austria for her to learn how to eat. We organised this the day we found out of her condition.

Heidi turned six. She's such a cute little girl. She looks just like Anthony. Speaking of, he's became violent. He acts completely normal around the children, when i let them near him, but he's became so different. He hits me, i don't know why, i don't know what I've done to him.

He's started filming his movie, which gets him away from us, but i have a lot of meetings about my newest tour, which adds to the stress.

I just have to get the children away from him as much as possible. They've been spending most of their time at Olivia and Ben's. Even though there having trouble with their recent engagement, they love each other. Which is why i trust them with my children.

Anyway, i'm currently getting ready to go have a meeting. Paris' coming with me whilst Heidi, Caspar and Melody are being home schooled. Leo's with David looking at middle schools. When he's finished this year and next year, he's going to go to a private middle school.

Just as i finished with my hair, Paris started to wake up. Smiling, i walked over to my bed, where i had placed her, and i picked her up, smiling at her sleepy face. She's still the six of a about 6 month old baby, for being 10 months. She was born 13 weeks premature, it's a miracle she's alive. I cradled her close to me as i placed her in the carrier. Anthony's gone for the day and we'll be back before the children's schooling is done.

Paris gargled as i picked her up and rested the carrier in the crook of my arm. She liked being in the carrier. I can understand why through, my mom told me i liked going in the carriers, before she died of course. But i know my parents are in a better place now, watching me and my family grow.

I walked towards the children's school room and knocked on the door. Miss Williams, the tutor, opened the door and i walked in.

"Kids, you're mother and sister are here" She said. Caspar, Melody and Heidi stopped writing and looked up, smiling at me. They rushed over to me as i kneeled down in front of them. I placed Paris on the floor and hugged my eldest children tightly.

"Guys, mommy and Paris are going to meet some nice people today and we'll be back soon, okay?" I asked them, Melody frowned.

"Mommy, why can't we come?" She asked in her high pitched american/British accent. I'm still British and Anthony's american, so that's why they talk like that. Their prodigy children so they speak really well for their age. Smart kids.

"Because you have to finish you're schooling and mommy has to go to work" I answered.

"How come Paris get's to go with you and we don't?" Caspar answered, upset and sad. "Do you and daddy love her more than us?" He asked.

"No buddy. I love you all equally. Paris get's to go because she's too young to go to school and i have to take care of her because she's really sick" I answered him. I knew they'd ask if i loved Paris more than them, she's still not recovered from her long gap osophical-atresia and will have more things wring with her in the future. The twins and Heidi didn't have that so they don't have to go through this.

"Okay mommy" He said.

"Hey, i love you" I said to him, Caspar blushed.

"Love you too mommy"

"Mommy loves you both as well" I said to Melody and Heidi, they giggled and kissed me.

"Love you too mommy" They giggled.

"Guys, we have to finish off school and mommy has to go to work with you're sister, say goodbye" Chloe, the teacher, said to them.

"Okay miss Williams. Bye bye mommy. Bye bye Paris" Melody said, kissing me and then Paris.

"Bye mommy, bye Paris" Heidi said, hugging us both. I think she's sick, she's crabby today.

"Bye bye mommy. Bye bye Paris" Caspar said, repeating his twins actions and going back to work.

"Make sure they finish there work and set them some homework if we're not back in time, keep them away from Anthony" I murmured to Chloe. She nodded, knowing what Anthony was like. I'd told her to keep the children in the room as much as she could as Anthony was acting a little strange. Of course i wouldn't tell her that the children's father was borderline abusive, i just said he's acting strangely.

"Okay, i'll be back soon. Bye guys, love you" I said, picking up Paris' carrier and walking out of the room.

I walked downstairs and found Lucas sitting beside the door. I smiled and hooked him up to the blue lead. I'm getting him un-neutered. Annabeth wanted to breed Lucas and Alexis for pedigree puppies, she nagged me until i did. We're getting the procedure done today. They just untie the ties that they had put in him a few years ago. Mike organized it when we had them tied in the first place. It's been used on other dogs and it works. They basically tied the things up when he was younger, to stop him having puppies. But we can get them out if we want to.

"Mama's going to go on tour baby girl. We're going all over the world if everything goes according to plan. You like that, don't you baby girl?" I asked as i strapped her carrier into the car. Lucas sat on the floor obediently.

"Good boy" I said, giving him a teat and getting inside myself. Paris giggled when i turned the car ignition on. We're in the smaller car and she likes it when i take her in this one. I sat up the camera and turned it on after everything was set up.

"Hey guys!" I said as Lucas jumped onto my lap. "So today, i have some meetings about going on tour in the next few months, once Paris is better. Plus, we're going to get Lucas checked by the vet, because he's getting a little older now, so Annabeth wants to breed him and Alexis together. If it actually does happen, it'll probably not be for another year or something like that. We need to have a stable home life and no touring or anything like that until we bring puppies into the equation" I explained, fixing my hair and slipping a pair of shades on my head. Paris was playing with Lucas' ears. He obediently sat there and let her. Since the twins were born, i trained them to be nice around kids, it seems we've done a good job.

"She's cute, isn't she?" I rhetorically asked, looking at my daughter and dog quickly, before driving again. I talked for a few more minutes before turning off the camera.

"Al right, Princess. Let's go meet the people" I said, turning off the car and stopping in a parking space. I got out of the car and got Paris and Lucas out. I carried her on my hip and held the lead as we walked into the building.

I called my assistant and she came over after about 10 minutes. She's such a sweet girl, her name is Rebecca. She's so nice to us and doesn't get starstruck. She's fresh out of college after serving one year. 19 years old and a good head on her shoulders. She came with a bodyguard as well. He followed us.

"Katrianah! How are you?" She asked me, i gave her a look. I want her to refer to me by my nickname.

"Sorry. Kitty, how are you?" She asked. My parents and siblings can only call me Katrianah, as well as some record producers and my bosses.

"Not bad Becca. We're just gonna see the big cheeses and get some lunch" I said, walking into the building. We talked like any normal girls do and i checked in.

"Umm, we're here to see Marcus Collins and Juliet Coma. Katrianah Pierce" I said to the receptionist.

"Ah Mrs. Pierce. Mr Collins and Mrs. Coma are waiting for you in room 309. Would you like me to take you're dog until the appointment is done?" She asked.

"Yes, thank you" I said, passing Lucas' blue lead over to her. I adjusted Paris on my hip and she made a babyish noise, starting to play with my hair.

"She is just adorable, Mrs Pierce. I'll tell them you're here" She said, smiling at my youngest daughter before typing some things in her computer and listening to her headset.

"Go right ahead Mrs Pierce. Mrs Coma is waiting for you" She said. I nodded and we walked over to the third doorway and my bodyguard opened the door.

"Who's my baby girl, huh?" I asked Paris, she giggled and kicked her feet around, hitting hip and stomach.

"Easy baby. You're going to hurt mommy" I said, pinning her feet together and cradling her small body against my ribs. She babbled a little, making me and Rebecca smile. Paris noticed us smiling and cooed, Rebecca stuck her tongue out and tickled her, making Paris laugh hysterically.

"Quiet baby girl. Mommy has to speak to people and get another tour going" I said, trying to silence her as we got closer to the office. She didn't stop, just laughed harder and louder.

"Pass me a pacifier from the baby bag" I said to Rebecca as she stopped walking in front of the office door. She always had one when I brought the baby with me.

"Paris be quiet" I commanded as she fumbled around in her pink, purple and dark blue striped bag, looking for a pacifier. Paris pulled my hair tightly as she screamed in laughter. Ugh, why wont she be quiet?! Melody and Heidi went like this!

"Ahh. Paris. Stop." I commanded as she pulled my hair even tighter. She's never done this before.

"Rick, can you withhold the meeting for about 10 minutes please? I need to take her to the ladies room" I said to my bodyguard.

"Of course Mrs. Pierce" He said, knocking on the door. That made Paris stop laughing and start crying. Loudly. I sighed and we rushed off into the ladies bathroom. Nobody was here. Thank god.

"Pass me a diaper and some food and water" I said to Rebecca. She nodded and I placed Paris on the changing table. I undid her outfit and changed her diaper quickly.

"Okay, we need 4 tubes of water and 3 of food" I commanded. She nodded again and gave me what I needed. I inserted the first small water bottle onto Paris' tube which was connected to the stomach and pushed it inside her body with the syringe. I did it again and again and again, before doing the same with the food.

Rebecca placed the empty bottles back in the bag and I did her outfit back up. I gave her the pacifier and a little teddy. She was back on my hip and now quiet like her older sisters were at this age. Well, I had to take care of three babies at nineteen and a really ill baby at 25. Why can't I have a normal pregnancy and a normal baby at a respectable age? No. I can't think about any of those things. I love all of my children, I'll keep them safe no matter what.

"Right, let's go" I said to Rebecca. She nodded and we walked outside and over to the office. I knocked and a female voice told me to come in. We did and i opened the door, seeing a female in the room.

"Katriahnah. Hi, come in" She said, we did and i came forwards, adjusting Paris on my hip.

"Aww, this must be Paris. She is just adorable. How old is she?" She asked me.

"10 Months" I answered. It's a miracle she can support herself with her back. We've had to have her in a new born buggy. But her physiotherapist said is good to do this sometimes.

"Aww, how sweet. Now, down to business. I've read you're performance sheet, how many songs did you want to do per night?" Sh asked me as we both sat down, Becca holding Paris on the other side of the room.

"Umm, about 8-12. Depending on encores" I answered, she nodded and wrote something down.

"Choreography? Light's? Fan participation?" She asked, i nodded.

"Everything" I answered, she nodded.

"Okay, we can do that. I accept you're request" She said, i smiled.

"Thank you Juliet" I said. She hugged me and we left the building, a large smile on my face. I got back into the car, Lucas with us, and Becca following with the bodyguards.

We got into a small café and my smile immediately fell.

"What's this I'm hearing about another tour? We agreed no tours until I'm finished with movie. We're going to have a serious conversation when we get back home - Anthony."

~Kitty's POV~

I shoved my phone in my purse and sighed, putting my head in my hands. Rebecca frowned and looked at me, concerned and confused.

"You okay?" She asked me, i sighed and shook my head, sniffling slightly.

"Anth's just being a pain in the a$$" I sighed, playing with my salad and trying to hide from the paparazzi.

"Ahh, marriage troubles i see" She said, i nodded, trying to convince myself that everything would get back to normal soon.

"Yeah, marriage troubles" I sighed, zoning out and daydreaming. I can't stop thinking about what has happened lately. Why is my husband being like this? Where's the man i committed myself too? Who's Anthony become? Will our children have a father?

"Kitty" I zoned back to see Becca clicking her fingers in my face, looking concerned.

"Hmm? Sorry Becca, just zoned out there. What did you say?" I asked, feeling slightly sheepish.

"It's okay. We have to go to Lucas' appointment, it's in thirty minutes" She said. I nodded and picked up Paris from my lap and placed her in the stroller that she brought. I got Lucas' lead and paid for the meal, grabbing my drink and stood up. We walked back towards the cars and I got in mine. I got Paris from the stroller and placed her in the car seat, folding the stroller down and placing it in the trunk. I walked back, strapping Paris inside, before i did the same to myself before getting inside.

I started up the car and music started playing, making Paris stir and gargle. I giggled and continued to drive to the vets. Opening the roof, Lucas yapped and Paris held him tightly. I smiled and drove faster along the deserted highway. I saw Becca and the bodyguards driving behind me, but i just drove faster. I love doing this. Driving makes me feel free, like a bird. Sometimes i just go out of the house and drive. It clears my mind.

Paris giggled and i petted her hand a little, driving slower and turning right. Becca followed me. I smiled.

Soon enough, i stopped at the vet's and Becca got out. I covered my face as i did the same and gave her Lucas' collar. The paparazzi had already found out i was here, i can see them coming. Damn.

"You'll need to take him in. I can't" I murmured to her as we hugged, sneakily passing over to lead.

"Okay, I'll call you when we get out" She whispered.

"Okay" I said, getting back inside and driving off. The bodyguards followed me. I drove back home quickly, wanting to be with my children. It's so surreal knowing I'm a mother. It's the best feeling in the world to see their faces.

"Mommy!" Melody cried as i walked inside with Paris safely in the carrier on my forearm.

"Hey Princess. Had a good day at school?" I asked, setting her on my hip as we walked over to the couch.

"Yep, mommy i got full marks on a spelling test miss Williams gave to us. Caspar scored when we played basketball today and Heidi did too. I want to play guitar like you mama, miss Williams said i could be good at it" She rushed out. I giggle and kiss her head. She's so adorable.

"I'm sure you would be. After i finish up with work I'll teach you. Would you like that?" I ask her. She smiles widely and nods.

"Yay! Thank you mommy!" She exclaimed, hugging me and running off into the other room. I laughed, looking at Paris.

"Now, let's get you in bed for a nap baby girl" I said, picking up her tiny body and walking up the stairs, to her nursery.

I changed her diaper and gave her some food and water, putting her in a sleep suit and placing her in the crib, hooking up her body to the machine she has to sleep with. It's to keep her breathing and to keep everything in check.

"Night Night baby girl" I said, turning on the night light and closing the curtains. I turned off the ceiling light and walked out of the room, quietly closing it behind me.

"Mommy!" I heard Heidi cry. I immediately ran downstairs and went into the playroom. Heidi was on the floor, tears running down her face and Melody slapping Caspar, but he just kept looking at Heidi. I went over to Heidi and picked her up. She buried her head into my collar bone and sniffed.

"What's going on here?" I asked my elder children.

"Me and Melody were playing with our dolls and Caspar kept making a mess. I told him to stop, but he wouldn't. I pushed him out of the way and then he hit me" She whimpered.

"Caspar Michael Pierce. What did i say about you hurting you're sisters?" I asked, slightly annoyed.

"That it wasn't nice and i shouldn't do it because somebody could get hurt" He recited. He always did this, i have to put a stop to it.

"Yes. Now, tell you're sister you're sorry" I said, putting Heidi down and gently pushing her towards Caspar.

"Sorry Heidi" He murmured, looking down. Melody stopped and held Heidi's hand.

"It's okay" She said quietly. I sighed.

"Hey, how about we go upstairs and spend special time together? We can make Daddy and auntie Annabeth some cookies" I said, immediately, their faces lit up and they nodded, Caspar and Melody held my hands as we walked up to the kitchen.

"Yay! Cookies!" They cheered. This is one of the tricks i learned with Leo when he was younger. He loved making cookies. We did it when i was pregnant with the twins.

After we made the cookies, which were vegan of coarse, I put them in the cooling rack to cool as they washed their hands and cleaned up.

"Have you cleaned you're selves up yet?" I asked after about five minutes of silence.

"Yes mommy" Caspar said. I nodded and gave the animals their food, standing up to see my eldest standing in front of me, all squeaky clean.

"Good buddy. Now, tell you're sisters that you all need to do you're homework and then you can have some of you're cookies" I said. Caspar smiled and hugged my waist, before running off towards the living room.

I cleaned up the kitchen as three little voices brought me out of my trance like state.

"Mommy, what's seven times seven?" Heidi asked me.

"Forty nine, Flower" I said, using her nickname.

"Mama, what's a square number?" Melody asked me.

"It's a number times by it'self, Princess" I answered.

"Mommy, what's four times four?" Caspar asked me.

"Sixteen, buddy" I answered, he nodded and wrote down the number. They asked a few more questions before they finished.

"Good guys, now let's get you in baths and into you're PJ's. Uncle Leo's coming home soon" I said. Leo had been looking at schools and after school clubs with David for a while. He stayed over for the past few night, he's coming home tonight. Well, he came home to do his schooling but i didn't see him. Leo left something there i think because he's coming back now.

"Yay!" They cheered, running off into the bathroom. I laughed and followed them. I washed each one of them before getting them into their PJ's and into the living room. Leo came back and i hugged him, he went to get showered and changed. I need to check on Paris, Annabeth came home not long after and watched the children until i came back.

Caspar, Melody, Heidi and Leo watched a movie and ate their cookies as i checked on Paris. She was still sleeping. I placed a blanket on her and walked back towards the living room.

I smiled as i saw 4 sleeping children and one smiling god-mother. We giggled and i took the girls back to their bedroom. Annabeth took the boys. Just as i closed the door and Annabeth called to me that she was going to bed.

"Okay!" I called back as i closed the door. As i turned, all hell came over me.

~Kitty's POV~

I turned around and screamed as i saw a man behind me. His hand immediately went to my mouth and he shoved my head against the door. His hand was holding my mouth closed and my nose have a limited amount of access to air. My eyes widened in surprise and i tried to push him off, but i couldn't his hold on me was too strong.

"Shut. The. F*ck. Up. B*tch. You'll wake the children" He hissed in my ear. My eyes widened again, looking to the man's face. No. He couldn't want to be doing this to me. Why is he doing this to me? I looked at his face and saw anger filled brown eyes looking at me. My breathing hitched and became heavy and uneven.

Anthony.

"Good. Now, we're going to have a talk" He hissed in my ear. I whimpered and tears burned my eyes. He released my mouth and grabbed my jaw tightly, forcing me to face him.

"W-why are you doing this to me?" I whimpered.

"Because sweetheart" He said, running a hand down my face, "You need to be punished" He simply said.

"For what?!" I whimpered, why is this happening to us?

"For what?!" He repeated me, suddenly angry "For you not telling me you were having that brat! For you getting pregnant and having a miscarriage before the twins were born! For you going on this tour without telling me! For you never having the guts to get out of care and leave the brats where they belong! In the past! For you not being the perfect wife!" He said, getting louder and louder with each thing he said.

"How is me getting raped and miscarrying my fault?!" I asked, how dare he bring my little angels into this! There isn't a day that goes by that i don't wish they were here! He has no right to talk about them!

"Because you didn't have the guts to push him off!" He shouted, slapping me and making me fall to the ground. I gasped and held my cheek.

"I couldn't!" I shouted "I was drugged!" I shouted, tears started falling.

"Shut the f*ck up!" He screamed, pulling me by the hair onto my feet "You'll wake the kids!" He screamed, dragging me to the bedroom. I screamed and cried.

"Please! Let me go!" I cried, sniffling as he slammed open the bathroom door and he forced me on my knees. He filled the bathtub quickly and grabbed me again. No. NO.

"No! No please!" I shouted as my head was forced underwater. I held my breath and tried to get up, but his strength was superhuman. Why is he doing this? This isn't the man i married!

He finally let me up, throwing me to the other side of the room. I started crying and coughing, trying to breathe. My dark hair was all over my face and flannel shirt. He came up to me again and kicked me in the face, making me scream out in pain.

"Shut the f*ck up!" He screamed, kicking me harder. I started hyperventilating and crying harder.

"Leave me alone!" I screamed "Please!"

"Shut up!" He screamed louder. I could hear the children crying, but i have to handle this first. He kneeled beside me and started punching me, kicking me and just flat out beating me. I couldn't do anything, just lay there and take it.

After about 20 minutes, he just left me there, laying on the bathroom floor, blood and water everywhere. I could hear him talking faintly.

"Daddy?" A sweet voice asked quietly. Heidi.

"Yes, flower?" He asked in a sickly sweet tone.

"Why were you and mommy yelling?" She innocently asked.

"We weren't, Flower. Mommy is just very nervous about going on tour and Daddy is very nervous about filming his film. We were just talking until the bosses started yelling at us through the phones. It's okay now. Go back to bed" He said. I heard her footsteps getting quieter until they disappeared. I sniffed and let my eyes open. There were black dots all over the room.

Confused, i blinked a few more times and i tried to make it go away, but every time i blinked, there were more and more dots. This happened until everything turned black.

I let my eyes snap open. My whole body ached and my head was pounding. Groaning, i stood up, feeling every bone in my body crack. I slowly walked over to the mirror and my eyes widened at what i saw.

There were dried blood all over my face, masking the colour of some bruises. There were many bruises all over my face and my hair was stuck together. I reached into my pocket and found my cell phone.

Where r u? Mack picked me and L up from vet's and he stayed with me. I'll b ovr at 10 to give him bck. We gotta take baby P to doc 2day as well. C u l8tr! - Becca

I sighed before washing my face, seeing all the bruises on my face. Tears started to stream fast and hard. Why would he do this to me? What have i done to him to deserve this?

I started hyperventilating, adolescent anxiety coming back fast, and the room started to spin. I slapped myself and took deep breaths to try and calm myself. I had anxiety when i was young and it sometimes does this.

I quickly remembered what i had to do today and immediately took out my make up, covering my face with layers until i looked fairly normal. I took out my phone and texted Annabeth.

Gonna spend time workin on the tour 2day. Can you take Baby P to docs and i'll pick her up 2morrow? - Kitty

She texted me back quickly.

Yea sure. Just leavin' the house now. I'll take Paris to docs. Good luk on tour :) - Annabeth

Thanks :) - Kitty.

I walked out of the bathroom on shaky legs and saw that Anthony wasn't in the bedroom. I quickly got changed and walked out into the hallway. I went to the children's schooling room and saw Melody messing around with a violin, Heidi was quietly drawing and Caspar was reading a script. Cute.

"Guys, mommy has to go to work but i'll be back soon. Okay?" I asked, they all looked up at me and smiled.

"Okay mommy. I love you" Melody said to me, putting down the instrument and coming over to me, hugging me and kissing my cheek as i knelt down. Caspar and Heidi did the same.

"Bye guys. I love you" I said and left the room. There so sweet. I love them with all my heart. I walked over to Leo's room and saw him writing silently with his tutor, James Martin, encouraging him and answering his quiet questions. There was quiet music playing in the background.

"Leo, i have to go to rehearsals, but i'll be back later. Okay?" I said to him, he looked up and nodded.

"Okay Kitty. Love you" He said, starting to write again.

"Love you too" I said and walked downstairs.

After feeding Alexis, Lula and Loki, i left the house and went into the smaller car. We have 3 cars. The red sports car i got at 16 or 17, the 4 door car we got when we moved to America and i met Anthony, and the mini bus for when we have the children with us.

I usually take the smaller car when it's to do with work. The children have school and i don't want to distract them from it.

After about an hour of driving, i got to the studio. After waiting for my security to get here, we walked inside and i saw the manager, Kenny walking towards me.

"Kitty! How are you?" He asked me. I smiled, well, forced a smile and answered.

"Really good" I smiled. He brought me near the stage and started to speak to me.

"Well, the lighting crew are just finishing up prep. We already chose the dancers that we used last time to preform. Ticket sales start Monday. We'll announce the performances in a press conference in about 3 months. You have rehearsals every day except for weekends, now when you're daughter is in Austria, we can organise a recording studio for the vocals and then it'll take about 5 months for the final preps to be made, and the tour will last about a year. There'll be breaks every month for a few days. The actual rehearsals will start tomorrow and today is just to give us a chance to see what type of things we can do. Okay?" He said to me, i nodded and started watching the dancers make up some routines.

"Okay guys. I think we all need to go home now, it's like 1 am and we have children to go home to" Kenny's voice boomed from the loudspeaker. My head shot up from where it was resting and i removed my feet from the headboard of the seat in front of me. I'm so exhausted. We've been here for over 10 hours and I've been dancing and singing for seven of those. I was only trying to get used to it again, not jump head first in the madness of concerts! Gosh, i'm an idiot.

I looked down at my phone as i got a text message.

Got L home from Becca's. There keepin' baby P in hospital ovr night. You can pick her up in the morn. Anthony's staying late at work and the children won't sleep unless you tuck them in. Come home now - Annabeth

Sorry. Leavin' now. Tell them we're stayin at 'Livia's. It's closr to hospital. I'll come bak and take them there. Night. - Kitty.

I'd already planned that me and the kids will stay with Olivia. I don't want them near Anthony after what he did to me yesterday. I need to protect my children.

Not much happened after that, except from having to drag my tired children from their beds and drive to my half sisters house. They were all sleeping, but she left the door unlocked.

"Okay guys, you can sleep in you're cousins room whilst mommy sleeps in the guest room. You know where i am if you need me, okay?" I asked, turning on the lights.

"Okay mommy. Goodnight" Heidi answered sleepily. All three children walked over to Felix and Harriet's room and opened the door, walking inside the room. I did the same and took the light blue duffel bag into my old room.

It still looked the same. Autumn-like and elegant. Typical, Olivia and Ben never change things in their house. It hasn't been re-decorated in six years.

I took off my clothes and put on a black tank top and black boxers. I took off my shoes, exposing my red toe nails, and slipped under the covers. After typing my hair back into a messy bun and leaving my make up on, i slowly fell asleep, ready for tomorrow.

The next day, i woke up in my bed, exhausted from rehearsals. Everything ached and my face was throbbing. Groaning, i got up and got my clothes from the duffel bag and went into the small bathroom. Leaving the door opened a little in case one of the children needed me, i washed my face and brushed my teeth.

Someone cleared their throat and i looked up, seeing their reflection in the mirror. Olivia. She smiled at me warmly, before I saw my elder half sisters eyes widen and she rushed over towards me, turning me around and my blonde haired sister started touching my face. My eyes widened as a little aching pain erupted in my face it was touched.

Sh*t

I forgot about the bruises.

"Katrianah? What the hell happened to you?" She asked

(Long chapter)

~Kitty's POV~

"Umm" Was all i could say, until i thought of a lie "I felt faint in the gym. I have to get back in shape for the coming tour, i guess i worked myself too hard. I fell and hot my face on a machine" I lied, feeling bad for lying to my half sister. Thank god Leo was on a trip to see his god parents or he'd never let me away without telling the truth.

"Sure" She said, not believing me "You know you can tell me if something's wrong, right?" She asked me. I nodded quickly.

"Yeah, i do. But nothing's wrong. I'm not lying to you" I said, using my acting skills. She sighed and nodded, leaving the room. I took a shaky breath out, before getting dressed and putting on more make up. I had to look nice today, it's Paris' last time in surgery. Once i finished with my shoes and sprayed some perfume on myself, i walked to the bedroom and put three sets of clothes on the bed.

"Mommy!" Three sets of voices called, running into my room.

"Good morning" I smiled, hugging them after kneeling down.

"Good morning mommy. Are we picking up Paris today?" Melody asked me as i handed Caspar his clothes, a pair of white jeans; a black and white striped t shirt, black trainers and aviator glasses. He walked into the bathroom to change.

"Yes, well, i am. You three are going to school after i take you home" I said, making Melody pout and hold her pink skirt, white and pink butterfly shirt and pink sandals, with a pink lace headband and white sunglasses. I gave Heidi a pair of light blue shorts, a matching halter neck top, a white embroided long sleeved cardigan, white flip flops and a blue lace headband. She slipped on the blue sunglasses and smiled at me.

"I'm done mommy" Caspar said, handing me his PJ's and i placed them in the bag. As I touched his skin, he felt a little warmer than usual. I placed a hand to his fore head and he did indeed feel warm.

"Are you okay buddy?" I asked, concerned.

"No mommy. My head hurts and i'm too hot" He sadly said, i sighed and looked into his brown eyes.

"Well, no school for you today then. You can help me get Paris from the doctor" I said, he nodded and i passed him a bottle of water.

"Mommy! That's not fair!" Melody and Heidi wined at the same time.

"He's sick girls. He can't go" I said, looking at him as he drank.

"He's faking it. He's better at acting than us" Melody mumbled, Heidi nodded, pouting.

"Melody Anastasia and Heidi Sienna. That isn't true. I have to keep him off school so you two don't get sick. Say sorry to you're brother" I demanded. They nodded and hugged their brother.

"Sorry Caspar" Melody apologised, kissing his cheek.

"Sorry Caspar" Heidi said after hugging him. I smiled and walked over to the duffel bag. I pulled out the childrens clothes and folded the individual outfits together.

"Okay you too, go get dressed and we can go to breakfast with you're cousins" I said, Melody nodded and dragged Heidi into the bathroom. I layed down next to Caspar and he rolled over, wrapping his arms around my neck and placing his head on my chest.

"I love you mommy" He said. I closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his waist, bringing him closer.

"I love you too Buddy" I said. He kissed me quickly, before laying back and we held each other close. It was a nice mother-son moment. I love my son so much.

"Mommy, were done" Melody said to me. I opened my eyes and looked at her iguana blue ones. Wait. I thought her eyes turned brown. They did, didn't they?

"Buddy, i'm just going to go to you're sisters. I'll be back in a few minutes" I whispered to Caspar. He nodded and rolled over, snuggling into the bed.

"Princess, wern't you're eyes brown?" I asked Melody. She shook her head, looking sad.

"No mommy. Daddy said i had to look more like Heidi so he's love me more. They were concats" She said. I felt rage build up inside of me. Who the f*ck says that to a six year old?

"You mean contacts?" I asked her. She nodded "Do you have them with you?" I asked her.

"Yes mommy?" She said, handing me two brown circles.

"And you're hair? Was that not real as well?" I asked her.

"No mommy. Daddy died it. I don't like my hair brown, i want my old hair back" She said, pouting. "But not Caspar. His eyes really turned blue. Daddy was angry but he didn't do anything"

I sighed and nodded. "Okay Princess. I'll ask auntie Annabeth to get you some stuff to get you're blonde hair back. Okay?" I asked. She nodded and hugged my waist. I kissed her fore head and she ran out with Heidi.

"Come on Buddy. Let's go get some food down you" I said, gently picking Caspar up and resting him on my hip. He played with my hair as i walked into the dining room. Harriet and Felix were there, eating pancakes and syrup. There was a pitcher full of orange juice in the middle of the table and Melody and Heidi were filling their plates with pancakes.

The sound was dull with giggling children, satisfied moans because of the food and adult voices talking. I smiled and placed Caspar next to his twin sister and gave him a bowl of cereal with almond milk and a small glass of orange juice. I'll give him some medicine when we get home.

"Can i talk to you?" I mumbled to Olivia as i strolled over.

"Yeah" She said and we walked over to the kitchen. Ben was washing dishes and i talked to my sister in a low tone.

"Anthony told Melody that she needed to change for him to love her more" I mumbled.

"What?! Who the f*ck says that so a six year old?!" She said, eyes wide.

"My thoughts exactly. He put contact lenses in her eyes and died her hair. I'll ask Annabeth to get some reverse die for her and i have the contacts. He's changing, i don't like it" I said, putting my head in my hands.

"It'll be okay sis. I promise" She said, hugging me.

"Okay girls. Mommy and Caspar will be back soon. We're bringing Paris home" I called.

"Okay mommy!" Heidi called back to me. I put my phone in my pocket and picked Caspar up, resting him on my hip as he drank from his juice bottle. I grabbed my strawberry iced tea and drank it as i rested my bag on my forearm.

"Are you feeling okay now, buddy?" I asked Caspar. He nodded his head and rested it on my shoulder. I smiled and walked out of the house, going to the mini bus and placed Caspar in the passenger seat in his booster seat. I placed our drinks in the holders and closed the door.

"Mommy?" Caspar asked me. I turned to look at him as the car started.

"Yes?" I asked, backing up the car.

"I love you mommy" He said as i started to drive.

"I love you to Buddy" I started to drive the car, towards the hospital and to my baby girl.

"Mommy?" Caspar asked as i went on the highway.

"Yeah?" I asked, concentrating on driving.

"Where are we going?" He asked, eyes drooping.

"To the hospital and get you're sister" I answered my eldest.

"Mommy?" He asked me again

"Yeah, buddy?" I answered, a little irritated he kept saying the same things over and over again.

"Daddy said that you had angels in heaven. What does that mean?" He asked me. I closed my eyes and sighed.

"A few years before you and Melody were born, mommy was going to have two babies. But god thought he needed them more than i did, so he took them up to heaven. Then, when i was having you and you're sister, God thought i needed you two more than he did, so you got to stay" I answered, trying to forget about the miscarriage. How can i explain that tragedy to a six year old?

"How do i know what God won't need you and take you away from us?" He asked me.

"You don't Buddy. We just have to hope that he doesn't so i can stay with you and you're sister" I answered. He nodded and i didn't say anything after that. I just drove in comfortable silence.

"Caspar? Buddy, we're here" I said, shaking my son's sleeping shoulder. He'd fallen asleep about five minutes after the questions and has been asleep for a few hours. It took about 4 hours to get to the hospital, Paris had to go to a different one for her final operation.

"No mommy, i want to sleep" He mumbled. I giggled and got out of the car, walking to the other side and i picked him up. He manoeuvred himself onto my back and i gave him his water. I took my tea and locked the car. There were about 17 photographers there, all speaking to me. Caspar hid his face in my hair and i felt him close his eyes.

"Kitty! Is you're son all right?" I heard a photographer say.

"He's fine" I answered, not looking at him.

"Why are you at a hospital?" A voice asked.

"I'm picking up my daughter" I answered, walking over to the entrance.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine, thank you"

"Caspar, are you okay?" Caspar nodded and waved, eyes still closed.

"Mhm" He mumbled.

"Where's Anthony?"

"Shooting his movie" I answered.

"What's the deal with you're daughter in hospital constantly?"

"She's got a rare disorder and it needs to be fixed" I answered.

"Have a good day Kitty, Caspar" A person said as we walked inside.

"Thank you" I called back and walked to the front desk, ignoring the stares that we got from people.

"Paris Jessica-Marie Pierce" I said to the receptionist

"She-She's in room 709" She stuttered. I smiled.

"Thanks" I said to her. I started walking to the elevator and pressed the '7' button.

"Are you exited to see you're sister, Buddy?" I asked Caspar.

"Uh-huh" He said, i placed him on my hip and when the elevator opened, we walked out and i found the ninth room. I opened the door and saw doctors around Paris' tiny body.

"Is everything al right?" I asked them. A female doctor looked at me and smiled.

"Are you miss Pierce's mother?" She asked me. I nodded and sat Caspar in a chair.

"Yes, i am. This is her elder brother, Caspar" I introduced. He waved at the nurse and closed his eyes.

"Everything went brilliantly Mrs. Pierce" The nurse said to me "There is no reason why you're daughter won't be able to eat or drink in the future" She said to me. I nodded and looked at Paris.

"When can we take her home?" I asked her.

"Right after the papers are signed" She told me. I nodded and a male doctor handed me a few sheets of paper. I signed them quickly and walked over to my daughter. I picked her up and cradled her close.

A nurse passed me the car carrier and I placed her inside, strapping her little body inside.

"How will I feed her?" I asked.

"With a normal bottle. But you'll need to get her inside a feeding clinic ASAP for a interval. We've placed a emergency tube inside if she refuses to eat and we'll have that taken out of her when she learns to eat" The doctor explained to me after Paris was strapped inside. Caspar ran over and gave Paris hugs and kisses as I lowered the carrier to the floor.

"How will I feed her in the time that were not in the clinic and the time of taking her over to the clinic?"

"Just have sauces like ketchup, custard and cream on you're fingers and put it in her mouth" She answered me. I nodded.

"Okay, thank you. Are we free to go?" I asked.

"Yes, you are. Well see you after the clinic stint, Mrs. Pierce" The doctor said to me, holding the door open for me. I held the carrier with my fore arm and held Caspar's hand. We walked out of the hospital quickly and went over to our car..

"Isn't this great buddy?! You're baby sisters all better!" I smiled, strapping Paris inside the car. Caspar opened his door and I lifted him inside, strapping him inside.

"Yep!" He smiled

I drove us home rather quickly and before I knew it, we were back home.

"Buddy, auntie Annabeth is gonna give you you're dinner and give you all baths and you, some medicine. Mommy's gotta go to rehearsals and Daddy's gonna be home before me. Okay?" I said to him. He nodded and walked over to the front door. I picked up Paris and we walked over to the door. I unlocked it and let Caspar through first.

We walked inside and I put Paris in for a nap. She was still really drowsy from the anaesthetic they put in her. I have to go to rehearsals so I had a quick shower and changed my clothes when and I was walking down the stairs, I jumped as I heard a shout.

"Ben I never want to see you again! I'm taking the kids! I never want to see you again!" My sister screamed at Ben.

I ran down the stairs and i saw that Harriet and Felix were standing near there parents, crying and staring. Ben and Olivia were shouting at each other. I motioned for the children to come over to me and they did, running.

"Come on, you can go in the playroom with you're cousins" I said quietly. They sniffed and nodded. I took them down to the playroom, where the twins and Heidi were. Paris was playing with a doll, laying on the soft foam. The dogs were there too, keeping Paris company.

"Harriet! Felix!" Heidi exclaimed, running over to them. Felix sat with Caspar and Harriet sat with Melody. Paris giggled and i blew a kiss at her, before going back upstairs, where the two were still yelling.

"Shut up!" I screamed, louder than them. The couple turned to me, shocked.

"Get in the house. Don't make a scene in front of you're children. Go and make up in the garden. I'm going to rehearsals, when i'm back, you two better be all lovey dovey" I said in a strict tone "Got it?" I asked.

"Fine" Olivia huffed, walking past me, Ben following. They went into the house and closed the door. I got into the mini bus and went to rehearsals.

After rehearsals, i dragged myself up the stairs and into mine and Anthony's bedroom. I felt exhausted and dizzy. I couldn't take any of his $h!t right now. Anthony looked at me and smirked.

"Hey baby. You must be tired. Here, drink this" He said, passing me a small glass, full with white liquid. Deciding it was better to do what he said, i drank it quickly and got into bed, taking off my shoes and jacket.

"There you go baby. It's okay. I'm here. Just let the medicine take it's course" He smirked, stroking my face and whispering to me.

"W-what?" I asked, feeling even more dizzier.

"Shh. Don't fight it" He said. I felt tired, so i closed my eyes and fell asleep.

~Anthony's POV~

Just as i saw her eyes flutter closed, i smirked and kissed her sweet lips. She tasted delicious, strawberry and pineapple flavoured. I opened her mouth with my hand and kissed her more, my tongue invading her mouth.

I pulled away and took off her dress and panty hose. I grinned and kissed her neck, taking off my shirt and pants. I felt desire within me, so i took off the rest of her clothes quickly and mine followed.

I quickly made love to her, stopping as i hit my climax. After i silenced my loud grunt, i slipped on my shirt and some sweats, underwear and socks. I slipped on some trainers and ran out of the room.

After reaching Paris' room, i reached for her and quickly took her out of the crib. After grabbing her and her blanket, i wrapped her up in it before running out of the room and out of the doors.

Goodbye Kitty.

~Kitty's POV~

"Auntie Kitty. Wake up" I heard my niece say. My eyes fluttered open and i saw her, standing in front of me, clothed in PJ's.

"What's wrong sweetheart?" I asked, gasping as i found out i was naked.

"I saw uncle Anthony with Paris, running out the door. He was looking scary" She whimpered. My eyes widened and I spoke in a shaky tone.

"Okay. Can you get me some clothes so we can look for them?" She nodded, giving me some clothes. By the time I had one shoe on, I was hopping out the door, slipping the other one on.

Panic arose. Who knows what Anthony is capable of in this state. He beat me within an inch of my life. What's he going to do with Paris?

That was the only thought in my head as I ran. I have never ran this fast in my life. My heart was beating out of my chest. I heard rain start to fall and Paris start to cry. Thunder arose as well.

"Anthony!" I screamed as I burst through the door and into the patio. He was holding Paris in his arms and standing in the middle of the gates. The open gates.

"What?!" He growled.

"What the f*ck are you doing?!" I screamed. Thunder erupted and the rain got even harder, soaking us.

"Being a better parent than you will ever be!" He growled.

"How?! By kidnapping you're own child?" I screamed.

"Kitty! Anthony!" I heard a female voice shout. It was Annabeth. I turned and saw her and everyone else running out of the house.

"Call the police" I whispered to her and she did so.

"I am not kidnapping her!" He shouted "I am on the birth certificate! I have rights!" He shouted.

"So do I!" I screamed "You cannot and will not take away my child!" I screamed

"You're child?! You're child?!" He exclaimed, getting close to my face "I am her father!" He shouted. The rain got heavier and the thunder got louder.

"And I am her mother! You can't do this!" I screamed at him.

"Police!" A deep voice shouted "Give the baby back or I will have to taste you!" He shouted.

"In you're dreams!" Anthony shouted, running back to the gates. I followed him and the voice spoke again. The patio was full with police. I could hear them shouting at Anthony and the children were crying. The paparazzi were already here, taking photos like mad. Once a photo was taken of Anthony's face, he snapped out of it.

"Kitty. I'm sorry" He said. I shook my head as tears started to fall. A female police officer snatched Paris and gently handed her to me.

"I'm sorry" He whispered, before stepping backwards into the road, right into the path of a car.

~Kitty's POV~

I stood there in shock, holding the crying Paris in my arms as i watched the officers surround Anthony. He stood in front of a moving car, the car couldn't stop in time. He was hit.

"Daddy!" Melody and Heidi screamed, running over to Anthony and dropping to their knees.

"Girls, stop" I whispered, tears pricking my eyes, they looked at me with horrified expressions. Two officers pulled them away with ease and they ran to me.

"Mommy" They sobbed "Daddy's hurt. Help him" They cried.

"I can't girls. Only the doctors can" I whispered, tears starting to fall. Yeah, he was troubled and beat me, but he's still my husband. I still love him.

"Miss, you must take you're children inside. They shouldn't see this" A female officer with brown hair said to me. I nodded and turned around as if i was being controlled, and slowly walked inside.

"Mommy, is daddy going to be okay?" Melody quietly asked me.

"I hope so Princess" I whispered. What else can i say? I've never been like this before, i don't like it.

I walked them all into the living room and sat everybody down. I was trying to calm down Paris she was still cranky, which was understandable seeing as though she was almost kidnapped, plus the fact that i can't feed her anything until we go to Austria.

We sat in silence for the whole night, crying silently and keeping everybody together. Nobody ate, nobody drank, nobody talked and nobody slept.

At about 9 AM, i heard my cell phone start to ring. So, whilst cradling Paris close to me, i entered the kitchen and answered it.

"Hello?" I asked, biting my lip.

"Is this a Mrs. Katriahnah Pierce?" A Austrian voice asked me.

"Yes, this is she, who is calling?" I asked.

"Ah, Mrs. Pierce. My name is Johanna Nina and i am calling to inform you that you're daughter, Paris, is required to come and take part in the feeding regime that was previously agreed when she was born" The voice said kindly. I smiled.

"Thank you. I'll book the next flight to Austria as soon as possible" I said, thankful for something to take my mind off Anthony.

"Al right, we'll see you soon Mrs. Pierce" She said and hung up the phone. Annabeth came and took Paris off of me.

"Guys, we're going on a holiday to help Paris start eating" I said, wiping my eyes with one hand and looking at my other children.

"I'm coming with you" Ben said, standing up. Feeling to drained to argue, i nodded and took the children to their rooms to pack. I understand why he wants to go, to get the whole thing with Olivia and the kids off his mind.

"Flower, try to forget about Daddy okay? He's gonna be okay and would want you to be smiling, not sad or crying. Okay?" I asked. She wiped her eyes and nodded.

"Okay mommy. I'll tell Melody as well" She said and walked off to her large room. I sighed and sniffed, putting on a smile and walking off to my room. I quickly changed my clothes and packed some of my stuff in a suitcase. I just put some clothes in there, nightwear, photos, hair things, my wash bag and make up. The bruises Anthony caused me have almost fully faded because of the drink he gave me. I still don't know what it was, but i can't worry about that now.

I made a few quick calls to my family and my lawyers to tell them what happened to my husband, before going into Paris' room and seeing her laying in her crib. I placed my bag on the floor and walked over to her.

"Hey baby girl" I whispered, i guess she's still a little drowsy from the anaesthetic they gave her, because she hasn't cried for food yet. She only started to cry when the thunder roared last night. Not that i blame her of coarse. It was pretty loud.

"Time to get you to eat" I whispered, placing her on the changing table and changing her diaper. I placed a purple skirt on her, with lilac leggings, a black and purple t shirt, purple ugg boots, a lilac jacket and pink and purple gloves on her. It's really cold in Austria.

"Mommy, we're done" I heard Melody say to me, i turned and saw her in a pink and white wool dress, black leggings, a pink thermal jacket and black ugg boots. Heidi had the same, except she had a blue dress and jacket.

"Good. I see you got you're blonde hair back as well" I smiled. Only my mother has blonde hair, so she must have got it from her.

"Yes mommy. I like it" She smiled, touching her long blonde curls happily. Heidi giggled and looked over at Paris, who was lazily smiling with half lidded eyes. I smiled.

"Hey, could you girls take Paris down to the living room and put her in the carrier?" I asked, walking over to Paris and giving her to Heidi.

"Yes mommy" She said, turning around and walking down the stairs.

I quickly walked over to Paris' closet and pulled out a light blue duffel bag. I opened it and neatly folded 6 dresses, about 4 shirts, 3 pairs of jeans, 2 skirts, 5 pairs of socks and 3 packets of drapers. I also put 5 sleep suits inside, along with a thermal robe, a pair of slippers, a pair of trainers, a pair of sandals, and about 3 pairs of different shoes. I quickly walked over to her bathroom and got her special washes, walking back and placing it inside the bag. I closed the bag and walked downstairs with my bag as well. I saw Ben's car pull up in the driveway and he got out with his suitcase.

"Hey you" Annabeth said to me, i turned and saw her staring at me, holding Caspar's hand in one of hers, and his suitcase in the other. There were tears in her eyes.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked.

"I can't go with you. Work won't let me" She sniffed, a few tears falling.

"What? Surely they can make a medical condition worthy of some time off" She shook her head.

"No, they can't. Beside's, someone's gotta look after Leo and the animals" She sniffed.

"Leo's coming to us when he's done visiting his god parents" I said.

"Oh. Then somebody's gotta look after the palace and the animals" She tries to laugh, but more tears slip.

"Yeah. Buddy, go put you're stuff in the car and get in. Uncle Ben's gonna help you" I said as Ben walked into the house. He took that as a warning to get out and got Paris' stroller and carrier, carrying them to the car, Caspar following, suitcase in hand.

"You take care of you're self. Okay?" I asked, hugging my best friend.

"Yeah, you too. Make baby P better and get home soon" She said. I smiled.

"I will. Love you" I said, pulling back from the hug and getting the bags.

"Love you to" She said. I handed her the keys to the house and walked outside.

"See you in a few months" I said. She nodded, hugging me again.

"See you in a few months" She quietly said and closed the door. I took a shaky breath out and walked to my car, putting the bags on the floor of the car and closing the door. The twins were talking and laughing and Heidi was playing with Paris.

"Did you sort the tickets out?" I asked Ben as i slipped into the drivers seat.

"Yeah. There for plane number five, 1 st class, two adults, 4 children" He said.

"What about you're kids and fiancée?" I asked, staring the car.

"'Livia's looking after them. She's changed since i proposed. What do you think it is?" He asked me as i started to drive.

"I don't know. Hey can you phone Kenny, Chloe and Mack for me. Just to let them know that we're going to Austria and won't be back for a few months" I asked him, handing my best friend my phone. He nodded, but was still confused.

"Kenny's the tour manager. Chloe's the tutor. Mack's the security" I said, he nodded.

"Oh, okay then" He said and started to scroll through my contacts.

Austria, here we come.

~Kitty's POV~

After a 90 minute drive from the ranch to the airport, 40 minutes in the airport going through customs, a almost 13 hour flight and 4 hours trying to get to the clinic, we were there. Our things had been taken to the clinic already.

My fans were there, but the clinic's security made sure they couldn't get to us. Paris was in a thermal onesie, I'd changed her on the plane. There was snow everywhere, light dusting's and heavy sheets everywhere. The children had fun. They'd only seen snow a handful of times. It was cute seeing how much their faces lit up apon seeing the white substance.

I kept Paris in her stroller at all times. I had put a pillow and a thick blanket inside there. She looked so cute. There were some pocket warmers with her, so she was nice and warm. She gargled and played with her stuffed toys, pacifier close to her at all times. It looked like a real bed, mainly because there was a small duvet under her and a pink and red thick blanket over her.

The clinic had a large field behind it so we spent about 30 minutes outside, i was watching as my eldest children ran around happily in the snow. The girls were making a snowman and Ben was with Caspar, throwing snowballs at each other. Once the girls were done, they played too.

I smiled. Me and Marie used to do that when we were younger. It was like looking at a mirror image. I had the long dark hair, throwing accurately at my sister, just like Heidi. Marie had the long blonde hair, squealing as she was hit, just like Melody. I smiled. It was just like my family once was, before mum's cancer, dad's breakdown, their death's.

"Okay, come on guys! The doctors want to see Paris!" I called.

"Aww, come on mommy!" Melody called, throwing a snowball at her twin.

"I'll get the clinic to get you to have cookies and coco of you come in!" I called. Immediately, 3 children ran towards me, Ben following.

"Thanks. I think my fingers are gonna fall off" Ben murmured to me. I laughed and walked inside. It was a little hard pushing the stroller in the snow, but i managed it.

"Mrs Pierce?" A Austrian woman said to me.

"Yes?"

"Is who's the little girl that's going to be participating in the feeding program?" She asked me.

"The youngest girl, Paris" I said, looking down into the stroller.

"Okay, so we need a babies room with 3 visitation beds" She said to a young woman with brunette hair. She nodded and walked away.

"Oh, how rude of me. I'm Margareete Fletcher, you're nurse for the next three weeks" She said, holding a hand out. I shook it and spoke.

"I'm Kitty, this is the children's god-father Ben, my eldest son Caspar, his twin sister Melody and their half sister Heidi" I introduced. She shook all of their hands. The children lined up in age order.

"It's nice to meet you" Ben said as he shook her hand.

"Is it is to you" She replied.

"Very nice to meet you" Caspar respectively said.

"You too" She nodded.

"Pleased to meet you" Melody beamed.

"As am i" Margereete smiled.

"Nice to meet you" Heidi said shyly.

"You too" Margareete said.

"Sorry, she's shy" I informed the nurse as Heidi hid herself in my leg.

"It's okay. Let's show you to you're room then" She said. Ben pushed the stroller and Heidi ran up to him, holding his spare hand. The twins held my hands as we walked up a few stairwells and corridors.

"Here's you're room" She said, opening a door. We walked inside.

I saw our bags in a corner. There was a children's bed a few feet away from it, there was a large window on the opposite wall from us. There was also a table and chair near the children's bed. There was three beds opposite the children's bed. There was a dark blue rug in the middle of the room, a large toy box near it. The walls were painted in florescent colours, pictures of food and how to swallow adorning the walls. I saw a bathroom near the bags.

"Mommy, it's so pretty" Heidi smiled, The twins nodded, beaming at me. I chuckled as they walked inside the room and sat on the rug. Margareete pulled me aside and explained the curriculem chart to me.

"Wake up call is at nine. Breakfast is at nine-forty-five. Lunch play dates are at twelve. Actual lunch is at one PM. Afternoon play dates are at two PM. Afternoon exercise is at three PM. Parental meetings are at four-thirty and dinner is at seven PM. Lights out for patients is at eight PM and for visitors is ten PM. Surgeries or tests are taken at five PM and visitors are more than welcome to leave the facility to explore the country" She finished and i nodded, memorising what she said.

When we had the tours and i met all the nurses, doctors and psychologists that would be treating Paris, it was dark. Margareete pulled me to the side as the children were eating a dinner of spaghetti with vegan Alfredo sauce.

"Before we start, how far are you willing to go with the methods of starvation? I mean, how much are you willing to give her tonight? We need to wean her off the tube feed. Because it takes about 4 days for mothers to not give their children anything, so how much do you want to give you're daughter tonight?" She asked me.

"Umm. Well the doctors made me not give her anything when she went for her surgeries. So i could handle not giving her anything tonight" I said.

"Nothing?" She asked.

"Yes, nothing. No food tonight. Let's just hope i can handle giving her nothing until she cracks" I tried to laugh, but this won't be easy. Not for me or my daughter.

Can i watch my baby girl starve?

~When Paris is 10 months old~

~Kitty's POV~

I woke up to the sound of a alarm going off. Sitting up, i quickly recognized my surroundings and looked down at Heidi, who was in my bed. I looked at Paris, who was sleeping in her dark oak crib. It'll be another day before we can get her to drink anything. That's usually when the thirst starts to kick in, according to Margareete.

I kissed Heidi's head, before getting out of bed and walking over to my bag. I pulled out some underwear, a bra, socks,a long sleeved shirt, some jeans, a hair tie, a headband, a pair of earrings, a necklace and some make up. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower. After i finished, i quickly changed into my clothes and sprayed myself with perfume, walking out of the bathroom, where Paris was awake, cooing away in her cot.

"Mommy?" I heard a voice whisper. I looked over and saw Heidi sitting up in bed with half-lidded eyes.

"Yeah, flower?" I asked, using her nickname. She smiled and yawned, running her eyes.

"How long do we have to spend here?" She asked me.

"As long as it takes for Paris to get better, flower" I said, she nodded and sat up, before getting out of bed and walking over to the suitcases. I helped her pick out an outfit and she went into the bathroom, coming out a few minutes later, all dressed and looking cute.

"You look nice" I quietly said.

"Thank you mommy" She said, sitting on the bed. "Come cuddle with me?" She asked me. I smiled.

"Sure flower" I said, walking over to her and laying down, opening my arms. She layed down in my arms and i sighed happily into her hair.

"I love you mommy" She whispered.

"I love you too, flower" I smiled. We stayed like that for what seemed like hours, when it was really just minutes. Even though there was no biological connection between us, i love her like a daughter. She knows i'm not her mother, but she considers me to be. I'm her adoptive mother. She's my adoptive daughter.

"Mama?" I heard Caspar ask.

"Yeah buddy?" I said, a little louder than when i was talking to Heidi.

"Can you get me some clothes please?" He asked me.

"Sure, buddy" I said, walking over to the suitcases and getting a outfit together. I handed the clothes to Caspar when he was behind me. He walked into the bathroom and i heard him changing. When he was done, he gave his PJ's to me and walked over to his twin sister, trainers making footprints on the floor. Soon enough, Ben opened his eyes and i smiled.

"Morning sleepy head" I giggled. I always said that when he woke up, it was something we did when we were on the x factor.

"Morning" He said.

"Uncle Ben, what are we gonna do today?" Heidi asked Ben.

"Well flower" He began "Whilst mommy and Paris are staying here, we're gonna go out and get some snacks and bring them back here for mommy and us. Then, we're gonna go shopping and when we're done, we can have a snow ball fight again" He said, making me smile. Caspar jumped on his and Melody's bed and started shaking her.

"Wake up Melody. We're gonna have a fun day today!" He said, shaking her. She groaned and rolled over. I laughed and Ben walked past me, picking some clothes out and changing in the bathroom. He came out looking quite cool.

"Melody! Wake up now!" Caspar exclaimed.

"Okay, okay. I'm up. Happy?" She asked. I chuckled and she walked over to me, hugging me tightly. I handed her an outfit and she walked over to the bathroom to change.

"Mrs Pierce. I need to see you and Paris for a physical examination for you're daughter" Margareete said, i looked at her and smiled.

"Yeah, okay. We'll be out in about five minutes. I just need to change her and dress her" I said to the nurse. She nodded and closed the door. I walked over to Paris and lifted her out of the crib.

I placed her on the near bye changing table and changed her diaper, before putting a cute little outfit on her tiny body. Even though she's ten months old, she's the six of a six and a half month old. I have to be careful with her.

"We're ready Margareete" I called, she opened the door and smiled, her wavy brown hair falling over her white t shirt and her matching pants grazed the floor.

"You four have fun, okay?" I asked. They nodded and i left the room with Margareete at my tail.

What are they going to make my baby girl do?

~Ben's POV~

"Come on guys. We gotta get going" I said to my god-children as i slipped on my jacket.

"Okay uncle Ben" Melody said, putting on a heavier coat and Heidi zipped it up.

"Where are we going again?" Heidi asked me.

"We're going to get some snacks from the store and then have a snowball fight" I answered. She squealed in excitement and i chuckled.

"Let's go then" I said, opening the door for the three children. They joined hands and walked outside and into the corridor.

I signed us out and walked out of the large building. Kitty's car was still parked, so i opened the door and helped the three young children inside.

"To the store!" Caspar cheered and i laughed, sliding their door closed and walking around to the drivers seat. I opened it and got inside, closing the door and locking it behind me.

I started to drive the large car and then called out to the children.

"Guys, what do you want to get to eat?" I called.

"Candies!" Caspar exclaimed.

"Fruits!" Melody exclaimed.

"Candies!" Heidi exclaimed. I chuckled.

"Real food guys!" I called.

"Pasta!" Melody called.

"Sandwiches!" Michael called.

"Candies!" Heidi exclaimed. I rolled my eyes. Maybe taking care of these three wouldn't be so bad.

~Kitty's POV~

I just saw the car pull away, Ben and my children safely inside. Paris is being examined by the physiotherapist, Pia, she relieves the tension that children contain in their bodies after surgery. She has to be really gentle because Paris' bones are fragile, plus she's so young. I don't want her to hurt my baby.

I've just gotten off the phone with my lawyers. I need to end the marriage to Anthony. It kills me inside that this is what i have to do for my children, but i have to protect them. But that means getting full custody of them and a restraining order against him. It breaks my heart knowing what i have to sacrifice for my children, but if it keeps them safe, i'll do it. I know there's going to be a custody battle for Heidi, seeing as though i have no biological connection to her, but she's happy here. I won't let anybody take her.

"Kitty, look" I heard Pia say to me in her Austrian accent. I looked over to her and saw Paris sitting up straight, but she looked pained.

"What's wrong with her?" I asked.

"Her muscles are naturally tense. It feels like muscle dystrophy. Really early stages it seems. But i think it's muscle dystrophy. There is a chance it can be cured, but we need to act fast. I'll schedule a x ray immediately" She said, getting up. I nodded and sat down next to Paris. Her brown eyes were wide and her bottom lip was trembling. She's going to cry.

"Shh, baby girl" I said, putting a arm around her small body. I lifted her up into my lap and stroked her thin hair. She whimpered and buried her head. I closed my eyes and rocked her back and forth, gently rubbing her back.

"Kitty, I've bocked a room. We need to get her there quickly" Pia told me. I nodded and looked at Paris, before standing up and walking over to her. Pia lead me away from the door and over to another part of the clinic.

She finally stopped walking and opened the door, revealing the room. It was dark but had a large, circular machine in the middle of the room. There was a glass wall on the right side of the room, where the last quarter of the room was concealed. There were many computers in there, all showing the same picture.

I placed Paris on the metal slab and Pia turned the machine on. We walked into the glass room and she started staring at the picture. It changed as Paris' body was taken farther and farther into the machine.

"There it is! The first sign of muscle dystrophy!" She said, pointing at the screen. There were black dots on her spine.

"Can you treat it?" I asked, she turned to me, smiled, and nodded.

"Yes, with monthly spinal shots and a active pass time" She said, i remembered what she said.

"Okay, let's do it" I said. We walked out of the smaller room and over to Paris. I gently took her small body from the machine and i cradled her close to me. Pia spoke to a few nurses and quickly came back to me.

"We can give her injections every week to stop the symptoms of the disease, but she needs to take up a physical activity, like gymnastics or dance" She said, i nodded and placed Paris on my hip. She cooed and played with my hair. I smiled, so did Pia.

"Should we get back to the room?" Pia asked me. I nodded and we walked back towards the room.

Me and Pia talked casually. From my family, to her son, to Paris' disease and how she was born.

"And you never knew you were pregnant with her?" She asked me, surprised.

"Nope. There were so signs i was pregnant, none at all" I smiled as we walked into the room.

"She's a little miracle" Pia marvelled and i placed her on the bed.

"Yep, she is" I smiled.

"Let's get this session over and done with then" Pia said and sat next to my youngest daughter. She started applying the smallest amount of pressure on her neck. Paris looked down and seemed to be daydreaming.

I just stared at them, shoes on the floor and my knees tucked up to my chest. I saw tears rolling down her face. Maternal instincts kicked in and i got up, ready to comfort her. As i stood, Pia held out her spare left hand to keep me where i was.

"No. You have to cut some of the ties between mother and child for this program to work. I know she's only ten months but she can't get used to having mummy wait on her and supply her every need. Just like she can't get used to getting fed by the tube" She said. I was dased.

Surely they can't want me to cut some of my ties with her. She's my little princess. She's so dainty and precious. I know what she means by not getting used to me being there 24/7, but i don't know how we'll be able to handle this.

They can't make her go through this alone.

~Kitty's POV~

I let my eyes flutter open. Yawning and sitting up. Heidi groaned and rolled over. I smiled as i kissed the side of her head and walked over to the bags. I quickly pulled on a random outfit and looked in Paris' crib. She was still sleeping, with a black cotton sleep suit on with a purple teddy bear in her tiny arms. All the rest of her toys were in her crib. There were about 12 different types of toys on each side of her, making her look like a toy.

"Morning" I heard Ben say. Turning around, i saw him staring at me with red eyes.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked.

"Does it really need an explanation? I was talking with my kids and finance they really miss me and i miss them. But you and you're kids need me more. It just hurts to be away from them" He sniffed. I cooed and went over and embraced him.

"It's okay. Speaking from experience, it get's better. I promise" I said. He nodded and i smiled at him.

"Thanks for being a great friend, Kitty" He said to me. I smiled.

"No problem" I giggled.

"Mama?" I heard a voice ask. I turned and saw Melody sitting up in bed, eyes half lidded, blonde hair tousled and messy and she was wearing dark blue and purple tartan PJ's.

"Yes Princess?" I asked.

"Can we get sometime to eat? I'm starving" She said, rubbing her stomach as if to prove her point. I smiled and Ben chuckled.

"Come on pumpkin. Let's see what you're mama's got for you" He said, going over and picking her up. She rested her head on his shoulder and Ben went over to the food bags. He picked out a small orange juice, with a vegan cereal bowl. It was just cornflakes in one small container and almond milk in another, with a little blue plastic spoon taped to the top.

"Here you go, Princess" He said, handing the two things to her.

"Thank you!" She smiled, taking the food from him. I laughed and went over to the clothes bags, picking out a cute outfit for the girls. I handed one of them to my eldest daughter and i placed the other on Heidi's bed.

"Thank you mommy!" She beamed. I smiled and sat next to Caspar. He's finally over his cold and finally feeling good.

"Hey, can you get the kids ready so me and Paris can go to this food play date?" I asked Ben, he nodded and i walked over to Paris. She was sleeping happily, small thumb in her mouth and toys still surrounding her. Melody and Ben went into the bathroom after i heard her ask Ben if he could help her get changed.

"Hey baby girl" I whispered towards Paris. I ran my fingers down the side of her face. She made a few noises before opening her brown eyes and looking into my iguana blue ones. I had brown eyes when i was younger, but mine went like Caspar's. They changed colour.

"Let's get you changed then" I smiled, before lifting her tiny body out of the crib. She yawned and pawed at her eyes. I laughed.

"Tired, baby?" I asked. She giggled and i smiled. She's such a good baby, she's always happy.

I quickly changed her diaper and got her out of the sleep suit. I placed her in a cute outfit and walked out of the room quietly. I held Paris on my hip as we walked over to the children's room.

I opened the door and saw Margareete standing in the corner of the room. There was a large red carpet in the middle of the room, with little bowls of food on it, along with about 6 toddlers and young children sitting on it. There were about eight sets of parents sitting on the side, smiling and encouraging their children. In the corner of the room was a trolley full of bowls of food, and bottles of drinks.

"Ah Kitty. You're just in time, i was just going to get you" Margareete smiled at me. I smiled back and adjusted Paris on my hip. She giggled and played with my hair.

"We're always early" I smiled, she nodded and lead me over to the corner of the room.

"If you would like to sit Paris in the ground by here and sit around two metres away from her. The main aim is to cut some ties between mother and child and get the child used to the taste and feel of food" She explained. I nodded and placed Paris where she wanted me two and i sat away from her. Margareete sat next to me.

"We're hoping, since the other children have been here longer than you're daughter, she'll copy them and eventually be able to eat and drink" She said, i nodded and looked over at Paris, who was staring at a boy with brown hair, blue glasses, a blue t shirt and black jeans. He looked to be about four.

"She seems interested, doesn't she?" Margareete asked me. I nodded and looked at her.

"That's the point of the session. He's eating and drinking. If she copies him, that's the whole point of the exercise completed" Margareete quietly said to me. I nodded and looked at Paris, who was touching some custard that was in a small red bowl. Margareete smiled. We sat there and watched for a few minutes, before Paris lifted her hand to her mouth, copying the boy.

"She's copying him" Margareete observed. Paris opened her mouth and i saw her place the custard in her mouth, before couching it out again.

"That's completely normal Mrs. Pierce. If she's placed food in her mouth the first time she's here. We can get her eating very easily" Margareete smiled at me. I smiled too.

Maybe this won't be as hard as i thought it'd be.

~The Next Day~

"Mommy, wake up" I heard a voice say. I opened my eyes and saw Caspar standing in front of my bed, a grey and dark blue t shirt adorning his chest and dark blue sleeping pants adorning his legs. His dark hair was messy and eyes half lidded.

"What's wrong Buddy?" I asked my only son.

"It Paris mommy. Paris is hurt. I heard her tummy rumble and she started biting her fingers and she made blood come out" He said, worried. I sat up quickly and climbed out of bed and rushed over to Paris, where she was laying. I saw a small cut on her right pointer finger, just above her fingernail. There was blood all over her finger and some smeared over her nose, mouth and chin.

"What have you done baby girl?" I asked her. She looked up at me and giggled, holding her hand up towards me. It's so strange, i expected her to be screaming and crying, she's still so happy even when her finger is cut.

"Buddy, can you fill the sink with warm water for me please?" I asked my eldest. He nodded and walked over to the bathroom. I heard the tap start to run, so i gently picked up my youngest and cradled her close. She giggled and played with my hair.

I walked into the bathroom with her and took a rag from the counter top, soaking it in the water and placing it on the small cut. Paris suddenly whimpered and flinched when i placed the water on her small cut. She whimpered more and i felt bad for doing this. Her bottom lip started to tremble and i saw tears start to build up in her eyes. I looked down at Caspar, who was staring up at me with large, intense eyes.

"Buddy, can you go and get one of Paris' toys please?" I asked Caspar, he nodded and ran off into the bedroom.

Soon after, he came back into the room and walked over to Paris, holding a medium sized teddy bear in his hands. He waved it in front of her face a bit and i smiled. Paris giggled and became happy again, i quickly finished up with her hand and placed a plaster on it. It was white with red and pink hearts on it.

I quickly cleaned her body and placed a pink and purple thermal onesie on her. I also put a pair of pink trainers on her tiny feet and gave her the golden bear.

"Caspar, can you go and get some clothes on please. We're going for a walk today" I asked my eldest. He nodded and smiled up at me.

"Okay mommy" And he left. I placed the hood on Paris' head. The hood had cute little pink felt ears on it, making her look adorable. I walked out to the bedroom area and placed her down on the floor, where she turned to lay on her stomach and started squirming, moving a blue truck in front of her. She looked at it as if it was the most interesting thing in the world. Eyes wide and a smile to match.

"Kitty" I heard a voice say, gasping, i turned and saw Ben standing behind me. "Margareete wanted to have a meting with you about Paris" He said "I'll wake the kids, you go" He said.

I nodded and quickly changed into a white sleeveless shirt, black shorts, polka dot tights, a sleeveless trench coat and some heeled booties. I grabbed a coffee and walked over to the meeting room, a few doors away from the room we were staying in.

I knocked on the door and Margareete answered it quickly. Smiling, she lead me inside without a word said to me.

"Kitty" She said as i sat down "We'll try to get the children closer together today, so they know how Paris thinks and acts. There six, correct?"

"Yes"

"Six years old. They need to know what's wrong with their sister. So we'll go for a walk around the snow filled grounds at twelve to see how they interact. Is that okay with you?" She asked me, i nodded and sighed.

"What's wrong?"

"I just have been thinking about my relationship with their father. It's not good" I said. Anthony is haunting my dreams. I don't know if he's alive. I don't know if my children are fatherless.

"Don't worry. I'm sure it'll get better" She soothed, rubbing my shoulder comfortingly and i smiled standing up.

"I'll see you in an hour" Margareete said. I nodded, walking out of the room in a trance-like state.

What if Anthony dies?

What if my children are fatherless?

What if Anthony dies thinking i hate him?

How will i explain to my children that Daddy's dead?

Will Paris grow up never knowing who her father is?

Will i have to raise four children by myself?

~Kitty's POV~

As I stood here in the snow, all i could think about was Anthony. Even though he turned abusive towards the end of our marriage, i still love him. He wasn't like that when we first met, so he must have been doing something to entice those actions towards me. Maybe it was to reduce the stress of finishing his movie, or the stress of Paris' condition, or with me being gone alot more to prepare for the tour. Maybe i'll never know why he acted like that. But i do know one thing, that wasn't my husband. My husband isn't abusive, my husband must have been covered by a sheet of insanity whilst his kindness and protectiveness were covered.

Oh god damn it. Why am i going all poetic all of a sudden? Jamie did that when we were younger. Jamie. I've been remembering him alot lately. He was the complete opposite of how Anthony turned out towards the end of our marriage. I've been thinking about calling him alot lately, he probably doesn't remember me. But if i remember him, there's a chance he'll remember me.

Who would've thought, a scene Katrianah Bright would fall for a emo James Hardy?

I would've found that ridiculous, especially when i had all those feelings for Rick at that time, but i fell for him, and fell hard. I've forgave him for the affair, just like i forgave Anthony for cheating to create Heidi. But Jamie helped me through Daddy's death, he helped me through the competition. I'll always love him in a way. I'll always love my first love. He saved me when i was kidnapped, he helped me when i was raped, hell, he even comforted me after i had the miscarriage. Over four months later and through text of coarse, but he comforted me. That's all that mattered. He loved me, that's all that matters.

After the walk was over, i walked in a trance like state back to the clinic. The cold didn't affect me, neither did the fact that the children interacted wonderfully, which i already knew, i just had to do something i never thought I'd do.

After changing my clothes, i went to my bag and saw a middle-sized brown package settled on top of it. There was a white sticky note on top, covered by a thin line of string. I'm not worried about Ben or the children finding me, there out playing in the snow, Paris is with Pia in a physiotherapy session. So i'm all alone. All alone to do what I've never thought i would do.

I grabbed the package and walked over to my bed. My fingers worked by themselves and made the string fall to the floor. I opened the package and saw four stacks of paper. A divorce package, a custody package, a restraining order package and a suing package.

I took a shaky breath out and grabbed the blue and silver pen from the desk, opening the lid and starting to sign my name on the first package. The divorce package.

"Kitty, the kids want you to play with them. What are you doing?" I heard a voice say. Looking up, i saw Ben standing in front of me, clothes slightly damp and he looked tired and cold.

"I need to get him away from us" I whispered. All the feelings just bubbled over at this point. Tears started to roll and i couldn't stop them. My husband might be dead. I might be a single mother. I still have feelings for my ex and i'm willingly making my husband stay away from me.

"Kitty, calm down" Ben soothed, sitting beside me and wrapping a arm around me, letting me cry. "Okay sweetie, what are you signing?" He asked me. I can't speak, so i just placed the package on his lap and he looked at the titles of each folder. He was getting more confused with each one of them.

"Why?" He asked.

"He was abusive" I sobbed "He hurt me so sad. I lied to 'Livia about why i had bruises. I can't put the children in a position where they could be in danger. I can't do that" I sobbed into his shoulder.

"Shh. I understand. Calm down" Ben soothed, rubbing my back. "Shh. Do whatever you feel is right, whatever you choose, i'll be behind you every step of the way. It's okay, there's no need to cry. Everything's fine, everything's okay. Calm down" He cooed softly in my ear. I nodded and sniffed, before looking down at the documents in his lap, before back at my cell phone with Jamie's number on it.

What should i do?

~Kitty's POV~

My hands shook as i dropped the signed papers into the post box. I signed the files, no matter how much it pains me, i know im doing the right thing. Nobody is going to hurt my children, im going to protect them. That's the promise I made myself when I first found out I was going to be a mom. Even if I get hurt, they'll be safe.

Ben held my hand as i took a shaky breath out. The files are gone. Ive just made the first move in divorcing my husband. I never thought I'd do anything like this, but then again, I'd never thought I'd have a life like this.

"Should we get back?" Ben whispered into my hair. I didn't say anything, just nodded my head. He didn't pressure me to talk, that's one of the things that I love about him, he never forces me to do anything.

"Come on" He said, taking me away from the post box and into the clinic. Tears started to roll without me knowing they were even there. Ben placed a gentle arm around my shoulders as we walked.

As we entered the elevator, i just broke down. My knees collapsed and i sobbed loudly, i clung to Ben's shirt and he had to practically hold me up as i cried.

"Shh, sweetheart" He cooed, stroking my back gently "It's okay" He softly said in my ear, his gentleness not common to a man. My body trembled as I looked up at him. I sniffled as tears rolled, I looked into his eyes as he smiled softly at me.

"Don't cry honey, it'll be okay" He said, running a hand down my face and catching all my tears. I sniffed and nodded, standing up straight and running my hands over my face and through my hair.

"Thanks for being here with me" I said to him, thoroughly grateful for him being here.

"No problem Kitts" He smiled. I smiled back and looked as the doors opened. We walked out of the elevator and over to the room, where Pia was sitting in the room, doing a physiotherapy session on Paris. She seemed perfectly happy, as always. Caspar, Melody and Heidi were sleeping on one bed, all cuddled up to each other.

"Good to see you two. The sessions just about finished" Pia said to me, i smiled and nodded at her. Pia stood with Paris in her arms, walking over to me and giving her over.

"We'll see you tomorrow miss" Ben respectively said as Pia walked out of the room.

"Come on you, let's get you ready for bed" I said to Paris, before walking out of the room and into the bathroom, i put the baby bathtub in the bathtub and put some water in it. Paris gargled and cooed as i filled the small bathtub with water.

"Happy, baby girl?" I asked. She smiled and cooed, as if actually understanding what i said I giggled and walked over to my daughter, picking her up from the place she was sitting and i took her in my arms.

After quickly undressing her from her white t shirt, black and white skirt and black shoes, i placed her in the bathtub and she smiled at me. I smiled back and looked over at her scar covered body with my expression changing to sadness. She's been through so much over these past year. Two years actually. She wasn't helped as a baby as i didn't know she was there, she has had all these surgeries, and now she has muscle dystrophy, as well as her eye problems and soon-to-be teeth problems. I honestly don't know how she's here.

After bathing her and placing her in some PJ's, i walked over to her crib and layed the young girl down. She smiled at me, before closing her little brown eyes and falling asleep. I smiled and went over to my bag, pulling out some sleepwear for myself and changing quickly and hoping into bed.

I pulled my phone out and searched through my contacts. I stopped at Jamie's name. He does entrance music for wrestlers now, not singing any more. I've kept up with some of his work, it's really good. He gets paid a lot for it, i watched a interview that he did just a few weeks ago. He's still single, never dated after me. From what i heard he didn't speak to Christa after the argument. He didn't love her, he said that in the interview.

We haven't spoken in about 7 years, so why am i suddenly doing all of this?

I still care for him, i know that. I forgiven him for what he did, i told him so when i managed to tell him about he miscarriage. He didn't know if they were his or my kidnappers, but he didn't care.

The twins were twin girls. I was planning to call them Nicole Elizabeth and Brianna Hope. That's what they would have been called if i actually had them on this earth. I often wonder bout them. Would they have had my dark hair and light eyes? Would they have had my fathers dark eyes? Would they be happy and healthy little girls? Would they be running around happily in large fields, smiling and enjoying life? There forever in my dreams and they'll be forever on my memory, helping me live my life until my dying day.

With that thought, my eyes fluttered closed and i fell into a deep sleep, dreaming about my little angels in heaven, and my little angels in the same room as me.

~Kitty's POV~

I let my eyelids flutter open with a sigh. I just have a weird feeling about today, it's difficult to explain, but today something is going to change. In my opinion it will, anyway. I sat up and looked at my three little angels sleeping in their bed, Ben sleeping in another and i saw the dark brown wooden cot with purple blankets in the far wall of the room.

Smiling at the thought of my family, i walked over to my bag and got a cute little outfit together, before walking into the bathroom and turning on the shower. I stripped off my PJ's and entered the shower, the steam enticing my body. The hot water was almost washing away my worries and sadness of the last month. I washed myself quickly and stepped out of the shower, drying off my body and putting on my clothes.

Walking back inside the small room, i saw Ben awake, surfing through his phone. He looked so sad and lonely. Why he was like that occurred to me immediately.

He was missing Olivia, Harriet and Felix.

"You don't have to stay you know?" I asked my best friend, leaning my elbows and forearms against Paris' crib. He looked at me, surprised.

"Yes i do. You and my god-children need me more than my fiancée and children do right now. I promise that when we get out of here and Paris gets better, then i'll go back to my family. Al right?" He asked me. I sighed and nodded, defeated.

"Why are you sad? Has something happened?" He asked, sitting up and letting me see his dark blue shorts and dark blue and white t shirt.

"I just feel like i'm taking you away from you're family by being here with us" I looked down.

"Hey" He cooed, getting up out of bed and walking over to me. "You're not doing anything like that by having me be here with you. Me and 'Livia have been having problems, space helps. You couldn't have been here on you're own, you would've broke down and not been able to handle all of this. By me being here, you didn't and can. Don't think of you're self as a burden, okay? I'm here because i want to be. My family will be al right for another few days." He said. I nodded, feeling much better after his little speech.

"Thanks Ben" I smiled. He chuckled and i took Paris out of her crib. I gently placed her on the changing table, undressing her quickly and put a diaper on her, along with a new outfit. She looked really cute.

"Excuse me, Kitty?" I turned and saw Margareete standing in the doorway in all white.

"Yes?" I asked, placing Paris on my hip.

"We've decided to try and start Paris drinking today. Would that be okay?" She asked, sweeping some of her long, crimped dark hair behind her shoulder.

"Yes, that's fine. We'll be out in a minute" I said to her. She smiled and nodded, closing the door.

"Watcha' gonna do with the three musketeers today?" I asked, bouncing Paris on my hip and she nibbled on my hair with her gums. I chuckled and gently took it back.

"Oh you know, thinking about taking them to the Prata today" He said. Noticing my confusion, he spoke again. "It's like a fun fair"

"Oh!" I exclaimed "Well have a good time and i'll see you when you get back. Gotta try and get the princess drinking" I smiled, waving as i exited the room.

"Good morning Kitty" Margareete smiled at me.

"Morning" I smiled back,

"Let's get this little one drinking then" She said to me. I nodded and followed her as she walked away from me.

"So the procedure today is going to be putting drinks like water, milk and squash into little sippy cups and seeing as though she copied the other children yesterday, she might copy them today" The middle aged brunette said to me, i nodded and entered a room as she opened the door.

Placed around the small white room where about five young children sitting on red carpets, with their parents tilting a cup in front of their mouths, trying to get them to drink. Two of the children were doing it by themselves, one boy a little older than Paris, and a girl a little younger.

"Let's get started then" Margareete smiled, i nodded and walked to the side of the room, placing Paris on a red carpet and taking a sippy cup that Margareete handed to me. It was pink and looked like it had water inside of it.

I sat Paris up straight and placed the narrow end in her mouth before i tilted the cup and some liquid fell out of it and into her mouth. Paris coughed and i stopped.

"It's okay. That's natural for the first time. Try again" Margareete quietly said to me. I did so and she didn't cough it out. She just looked at me and i stopped again. She let some of the liquid drizzle out of her mouth, but both Margareete and i saw a small swallowing action happening in her throat. I smiled slightly at Margareete. She winked at me and motioned for me to do it again, so i did. Same result.

After a lot attempts of trying to get her to drink, and about 40 minutes of trying to get her to stop drizzling out the water, which she finally did, i think my baby finally got the hang of it.

"We can stop now. I believe we've just started to get you're daughter to start drinking" Margareete smiled at me.

~Kitty's POV~

It's been about four days since Paris took her first sip of water. She's been moved onto milk and soup-like foods. She's had her first spinal injection too, it's going to be a weekly thing for the rest of her life. Every Thursday afternoon she'll have a spinal injection of some chemicals to try and stop the muscle dystrophy from developing quickly. It looks painful, but i'm pretty sure that muscle dystrophy is more painful, so i know i'm doing the right thing.

Just as we got back from a hike in the snow, my cell phone started ringing. Confused, i walked over to the desk and answered the noise making device.

"Hello?" I asked. Ben took the children out of the room and soon returned to the room with Paris on his hip. I mouthed to him 'where did they go?' He mouthed back 'lunch hall'. I nodded and gave my attention to my phone call.

"Is this Mrs. Katrianah Pierce?" A female asked me.

"Yes, this is she" I said, confused "Who's calling?" I asked politely, masking my emotion.

"Ahh Mrs. Pierce. My name is Nora Dumas, a office worker at east Jenson hospital in Sacramento. I understand you're husband, Mr Anthony Conner Pierce was brought in after a car accident a little over a week ago. Is this correct?" She asked. I pinched the bridge of my nose and sat down on the wooden chair.

"Yes, that is correct"

"Mrs Pierce, you're husband suffered a ruptured disk in his neck, severe whiplash, a concussion, a broken wrist, a fractured cheekbone, two bruised ribs, one of which fractured, a sprained leg and ankle and a finger dislocation. Police also found a large amount of cocaine in his nose and a large amount in his system. He has recovered from his surgeries and should be out in about 4 weeks. Mr Pierce will also require severe rehabilitation to cope with his drug addiction. Do you understand Mrs. Pierce?" She asked me. I looked down and nodded.

"Yes, but i have filed legal papers against him and he must respond within a month. Will he be able to do that there?" I asked.

"Mrs Pierce, we received the papers but are you sure he should have them after what he's been through?" She asked. I got angry when she said that.

"After what he's been through?!" I furiously exclaimed "He made my life a living hell more than it already was! You don't know what happened to me before i met him, and after we got married, he beat me within an inch of my life, drugged me and raped me! So yes i want him to have those papers and i want him to suffer every amount of pain he put me and my family through! Goodbye!" I exclaimed, throwing the phone away from me and screaming in my hands. I'm so sick of being scared of him, i want him to suffer every amount of pain he made me and my children through! He wont frighten me any more! I want him to feel the fear that i did and so much more!

"Hey, hey. Calm down. What's wrong?" I heard Ben ask me. I looked up and saw him hand the phone up before embracing me within his arms.

"It was some person saying who Anthony was doing, apparently there was a-a ruptured disk in his neck, severe whiplash, a concussion, a broken wrist, a fractured cheekbone, two bruised ribs, one of which fractured, a sprained leg and ankle and a finger dislocation! They have the papers and were reluctant to show them to him after what he's been through! He made my life hell and there worried about him?! How is that fair?!" I exclaimed, slicing at the air.

"Calm down. It's not. It really isn't. But you have to be strong. You have a baby and 3 other kids to think about, plus Leo. Calm down okay. He's going to pay big time after what he did to you and you're family, but you can't let them see you like this. They won't understand any of this. No six year old will, just take a deep breath and it'll all be okay. I promise. Now take a deep breath and let it go. Okay?" He asked me. I nodded and did what he said. It worked. I felt the anger rush out of my body and it relaxed me.

"Thanks" I breathed. He nodded and let go of me, walking towards his bag and pulling something out of it, before passing it to me. It was a stress doll.

"Here. I think you need this more than i do" He smiled. I chuckled and took it.

"Thanks"

"No problem, now get you're a$$ dressed! Margareete said we're going out for dinner tonight at some fancy restaurant!" He said, shoving me towards the bathroom.

"Yes sir!" I jokingly saluted, picking out a outfit and going to the bathroom to change into something better than what i was wearing.

Maybe this wouldn't be so bad after all. I have my children, i have my awesome best friend and i have my fabulous career. Maybe i don't need a man after all.

~Kitty's POV~

"Guys, are you ready to go?" I called into the bathroom, fixing the bow on Paris' head.

"Yes mommy!" Melody called back to me, before the door opened and i saw my two eldest daughters walk out of the small room and smile brightly at me.

"You two look beautiful" I honestly said to them. They giggled and smiled.

"Thank you mommy" Heidi smiled. I chuckled and looked towards the door as Ben and Caspar walked inside, both looking extremely smart and cute.

"You two look good" Melody marvelled. I chuckled and got Paris from her changing table and placed her in her stroller. I grabbed the baby bag and placed it over my shoulder, along with a lace cardigan.

"Here, let me help" A voice said in my ear. I turned and saw Ben standing behind me, a small smirk on his face. He took the bag from my shoulder and placed the cardigan over my shoulders.

"Thanks" I nodded, looking at Paris. There were some hand warmers, pillows and blankets still inside the stroller, so i had confidence she was going to be warm enough.

"Guys, go put you're coats on. It's cold at night" I advised my eldest children. The girls nodded and slipped on some cardigans, whilst Caspar stood to the side.

"I'm warm enough mommy" He said, looking at me.

"If you're sure" I said and Ben opened the door for me to walk out with Paris' stroller in my hands as the children walked in front of me, smiling cutely as only a few six year olds could.

I smiled and Melody took my hand as i pushed Paris' stroller when we got out of the room. Caspar walked with Heidi just in front of us and Ben trailed behind a few steps. This is where i need to be, with my children and best friend, not being afraid of an ex and putting my life at a stand still.

Not any more. I won't be afraid of that man. I don't even think i need a man in my life. What do they do? Keep you down and make you suffer. I don't want to keep the children away from him, but he's a drug addict. He almost killed my daughter. They might hate me when they get older and understand the world more, but i gotta do what i gotta do to keep them safe.

"Mommy, where are we going?" Heidi asked me, looking at me with her captivating brown eyes.

"We're going to a restaurant to see if you're sister can drink, and we can get some food for us as well" I answered my adopted daughter. She nodded and held Caspar's hand as we walked.

Paris made a few baby noises as i looked down at her, smiling slightly. She stuck her small tongue out at me and i laughed slightly.

"Kitty? Are you ready to go? If Paris proves that she can drink properly then she'll be able to be released early" Margareete said to me. I smiled brightly, but it faded and i forced a fake one on my face.

Will i be able to go back to the ranch after what has happened? That ranch belonged to Anthony and I. But Anthony's gone from my life now, and I've been thinking about Jamie alot more than usual, so maybe i shouldn't go back. I should try and start again with my children and my animals, try and make a few songs and then see where my life takes me. Yeah, that's what i'll do. Just start again.

"Yeah, that's great. We're ready" I smiled. She chuckled and we walked out the clinic rather quickly. I talked to Margareete casually and the children trailed behind politely.

"Mama, it's cold" Heidi complained as we were in the lift towards the restaurant. I looked towards the scenery through the glass wall and sighed.

"Here you go Heidi" Caspar said, slipping off his blazer and placing it on her shoulders. He held Melody's hand as me, Ben and Margareete smiled at them.

"How sweet" Margareete chuckled. I giggled and looked down at Paris, who was curled up to her teddy bear Annabeth got her when she was born. There was a purple thermal blanket on top of her and the hand warmers were all around her. One of her white shoes had slipped off and it was beside her head. I chuckled and moved it so it was on her foot again, before pulling out a thicker small blanket and covering her with it. She mumbled something incoherent, dozing off, and i giggled. Ben smiled and so did Margareete.

"Welcome to Viereck. How many people are going to eat?" A blonde girl asked.

"Seven People" Ben answered.

"Follow me" The girl said. We did and ended up at a long table at the far corner of the restaurant. We all sat and i placed Paris on a high chair, along with a smaller toy.

"Let's start you off with some drinks" The girl said. Once again, Ben answered her.

"We'll have 3 sodas, one milk, one iced tea and two red wines" He said. I nodded in agreement.

"Okay, i'll be right back with them. What would you like to eat?" She asked.

"Three vegan beef stews, one fresh cod with a light lemon salad, one vegan Greek salad and one tomato and celery bake" He answered. Paris' couldn't eat yet, so she was just going to have milk. The blonde girl rushed away and got started on the drinks.

The conversation flowed casually as we told stories and jokes. It was like we were one big happy family, it was nice.

"Drinks are here" The blonde girl came back after about 10 minutes with the drinks. She gave the sodas to the children; milk to Paris; iced tea to Margareete and the wines to me and Ben.

"Let's see if she can drink" Margareete whispered to me. I stared at Paris as she looked at the milk in the plastic cup and the black straw just poking out of it. Cautiously, she came closer to the straw and wrapped her tiny lips around the small black cylinder. I saw her throat moving and after what seemed like an eternity, which was probably only about a minute or so, the plastic cup was empty and Paris looked very fofilled.

"She did it!" I squealed.

"Yes she did Kitty. I do believe that she can leave our clinic after this night is over..."

After Margareete's words that night, my little family moved into a hotel close bye. It was only for a few days though, just enough time for me to sort out where we were going to live.

I gave the clinic about $40,000 for their services for Paris and moved the children and our things into their own little room which was a few meters away from mine. They seemed to enjoy it. Ben went back to the US and from what i heard, the children and 'Livia were ecstatic to have him back. 'Livia gave me a status report after three days of him being back home. They're back on cloud nine and are planning their wedding again, as well as focusing on their children.

I settled for a villa in Hawaii after about 4 days searching for places to live on my lap top. It looked pretty awesome. I showed the children and they loved it as well. Leo's coming to live with us as well, but his god parents told me he's found a home there, so only if he wants to, he can stay there or come here. But after i showed him a picture of the house, he was coming with us.

When we got to Hawaii after a long flight, it was just like a new start. I am happy to change houses, just for my new start. The cats are going to live with Olivia and Ben, and the dogs are staying with Annabeth in the ranch until i find a way to get them here.

I can only wonder what my life'll bring next, especially with Anthony gone from it. But if we made it past Paris' start on life, anything else'll be easy for me and my family.
