Little Additions
Chapter 1
* With Emma's school days fast approaching, Jac and Jonny are still um'ing and aw'ing at the choice of schools they can choose, although Jonny is distracted by trying to find ways to persuade Jac to try for another child together, how will things pan out*
...
"Concentrate Jonny! I'm not sending our daughter to any old school. Now which one shall we choose, Oakridge or St Michaels?" Jac sighed, leaning back in her office chair after snapping Jonny out of his daydream for the tenth time that morning.
"Oh Aye, I still think we should send her Holby Infant school! It's local, the staff there are lovely and it's not so far away from the hospital" Jonny replied, resuming his position in the conversation, Jac leant back further into her chair, running her nimble fingers through her long auburn hair
"Why is it so difficult to choose a school? I want Emma to go somewhere with a brilliant ofsted report and that can facilitate her intelligence, I'm not having her lacking behind in her education because of Incompetent teacher!" Jac sneered, now messing with her perfectly crafted diamond engagement ring, that had been placed upon her finger just a few months before hand.
Jac and Jonny had been sitting in the office since 8.30am, after dropping Emma off at her preschool class as usual. The stress of searching for an adequate school for their bright little girl, clearly taking it's toll on them both, as well as the stress of other pending events, such as a wedding to plan and Emma's forth birthday party.
"I want the same thing hunny, but Holby Infant can provide her with all that and more!... You're scared aren't you?" Jonny asked, looking at the worry hidden in Jac's facial expression. Jac looked up at him quickly, letting her arm flop onto the glass desk, her expression turning from a blank look to a confused look.
"What? Why would I be scared? We are only sending her to schoo.. " Jac started, before her thoughts overtook her words.
"You're scared because our little girl is growing up! Your scared because she's not our tiny little baby anymore, she's a beautiful young lady who starts her first school in 9 months time! Your scared because she turns four next week!" Jonny explained, silently as he walked around the back of his fiancée and wrapped his arm around her.
"Of course I'm scared, we never thought we would get to this milestone! It's a big thing Jonny I never thought Emma would survive the birth let alone to school age! Now my baby is all grown up" Jac replied, admitting defeat, knowing Jonny would worm it out of her in the end anyway.
"Well, why don't we try for another baby? I mean Emma would love to have a baby brother or sister, you see how she is with her dolls and stuff! And it would be lovely to have another daughter or a son! How about it?" Jonny suggested, blurting out his idea quickly, he knew that Jac would be against it.
Jac sat there, her mouth dropped at the idea that Jonny had just suggested, she knew that she would love to have more children but she knew that neither time or her age were on her side.
"I erm... I don't know what to say?" Jac stuttered, not finding the right words to express her true feelings.
"Have a think about it! But for now my gorgeous wifey let's get on with these ward rounds!" Jonny spoke, excitedly, like a child, usually Jac would brush off a comment like that, but she could see the excitement and happiness in his eyes as he hopped around and skipped towards the door, she knew this was something he wanted, what they both wanted.
After finishing the ward rounds, Jac found herself lounging at the nurses station, biting her nails as she tried to look up party ideas for Emma's birthday party, but her mind was else were, her thoughts overcrowding her as she imagined what life would be with another child, for them to be a family of four. Mo walked down the corridor, noticing the red haired consultant deep in thoughts as she stared into space.
"Ooo I think you should get that piñata, matches the theme brilliantly" Mo said sarcastically, snapping Jac out of her day dream.
"Bore off Mo... I've got too much on my mind to be dealing with everything at the moment..." Jac ranted on, waving her arms in different directions.
"Ahhh well, you see that's where auntie Mo comes in, I'll sort the party and everything, you don't have to worry about a thing... You go and sort out what ever you need to, chat with Jonny. Leave the party planning to me!" Mo ordered, placing her hand neatly on Jac's bony shoulder, as she looked at her.
"I can't ask you to do that, she's my daughter I..." Jac stuttered, as she began to stand up beside Mo,
"Uh uh uh.. No buts now any particular theme or shall I surprise you?" Mo asked, crossing her arms as she waited for a reply
"Anything as long as it involves frozen or princess, Emma is obsessed with them at the moment!" Jac replied, reaching in to her pocket as her phone rang. She held the phone out in front of her, looking at the caller ID.
"Who is it?" Mo asked inquisitively.
"It's the nursery... Excuse me a moment... Hello Ms Naylor!" Jac said, slowly edging away from the nurses station.
"Good afternoon Ms Naylor, it's Becky from the nursery..." The young voice said, echoing down the phone.
"Hi, is everything ok, is Emma ok?" Jac asked, wondering why they were contacting her.
"Emma's not feeling well, she has a high temperature and has fallen asleep numerous times throughout the morning, we've given her some cal pol like Jonny said, but it's not shifting it, I'm sorry but your going to have to come and pick her up and take her home" The young women said, confidently down the phone as she explained to Jac.
Jac stood there, running her fingers through her long wavy hair, letting out a big sigh,
"Okay, I'll be down in 5 minutes, I was nearly finished anyway, thanks Becky, bye" Jac said before putting the phone down, sliding it into her pocket, before placing her hands on her hips and sighing.
"What's up, is Emma okay?" Mo said, just as Jonny came strolling down the corridor, coming to a standstill next to his fiancée and best friend,
"Emma's poorly, nursery are sending her home, tell professor hope I've gone to get her and I'll be back tomorrow if she's better, Jonny I'll see you at home" Jac explained, before giving Jonny and kiss and walking off to get her poorly little girl.
