"Hang on, your Ruby's mum how can you not now what to do?" Brax wondered frantically.

"I…WANT…CASEY" Ruby screamed, Charlie rushed to her side and looked up at Brax.

"I had a c-section" she replied "He'll be here soon sweetie" Charlie said as she turned back to Ruby.

"A C-section of course you did" Brax muttered under his breath, Ruby screamed again.

"Brax they're getting closer" Charlie exclaimed as she held her daughters hand.

"Ok so I've called Sid and he will be here soon" Brax was all over the place.

"There isn't enough time you will have to do it" a voice said from behind him, Brax was relieved to see Amelia's face.

"Oh thank god" he gasped forgetting himself for a moment.

"Who the hell are you talking too?" Charlie was getting a little anxious.

"Casey's on his way. Baby you need to see if you can see the head" Amelia explained.

"Charlie maybe you should take Ruby's things off, we need to check how dilated she is" Brax said completely catching Charlie off guard. Charlie did as Brax told her.

As Charlie removed Ruby's pants, Ruby started to push instinctively "What now?" Charlie asked as she turned to Brax.

Brax didn't get chance to reply because all of a sudden Casey, Heath and Sid came rushing through the door. Heath had picked Sid up on the way back to the Braxton's.

Brax and Heath were waiting outside as Ruby gave birth. Charlie and Casey were in the house with her. After about half an hour or so, Charlie appeared with tears in her eyes "It's a girl" she cried for some reason Brax pulled her into a hug, he wasn't really sure why, maybe it was something he would have done to Milly if she was there.

"Can we see her?" Heath asked breaking the hug between Charlie and Brax. Charlie nodded before leading the way back into the house.

"Hey" Ruby sighed when she saw Brax and Heath "Say hello to your granddad" Ruby said as she passed the baby to Brax.

Brax held the baby girl delicately in his arms "Hello beautiful" he whispered.

"Are you going to tell him?" Charlie said to Casey and Ruby.

"Tell me what?" Brax wondered as his head shot up.

"Well we have decided on a name, but we want to make sure you're ok with it?" Ruby said nervously.

"We would like to call her Amelia" Casey smiled.

Brax's eyes widened and filled with tears "If it's too weird we can change it" Ruby said quickly.

"Nah, it's perfect. Milly would have loved it" Brax was overwhelmed by Casey and Ruby's tribute to Amelia.

"Don't worry Charlie we haven't left you out, we have decided to call this little one Amelia Charlotte Braxton" Ruby said as she looked at her mum. Charlie now too had tears in her eyes.

"Oh Ruby, Casey thank you" she cried as she stood next to Brax looking at her beautiful grand-daughter.

Heath was wearing a huge grin "What's so funny?" Brax wondered as he spotted his brother's grin.

"You guys are grandparents" Heath chuckled.

"Hey I would pick on them if I was you, you're here grand uncle" Casey reminded him. Heath's face dropped instantly.

"Oh what, can't we drop the Grand part" he joked. The whole room filed with laughter.

Brax could hear Scarlet crying in her crib; he headed straight into the bedroom. When he got in there he could see Amelia stood beside the crib. Brax reached over and put Scarlet's blanket back on, she settled pretty quickly.

"Looks like you've got the knack" Amelia smiled "I knew you would be ok without me"

Brax frowned "Don't you ever say that, Mill I will never be ok without you" Brax replied with a harsh tone.

"Baby I love you so much you know that right?" Amelia sighed, Brax just nodded in reply "I can't stay here forever; you need to move forward with your life"

"And I will I promise, but not yet. Please Milly I'm not ready yet" Brax pleaded causing Amelia to sigh deeply.

"Honey I won't leave you until I know you're ready" she gently reassured him.

It had been a few weeks since the birth of Amelia Charlotte Braxton, and I think it was pretty safe to say she had every singe relative wrapped around her little finger already.

Brax had offered to have Baby Amelia for a few hours while Ruby and Casey caught up on some sleep.

Casey and Ruby had moved in with Brax and Scarlet, it was Charlie's idea. She still didn't like the thought of Brax being by himself. For some reason she couldn't shake the fact that he wasn't dealing with Amelia's death. And when I say not dealing with it I don't mean he was dealing with it badly. I mean he was not dealing with it at all. Charlie realised Brax was shutting it all out, she also knew as soon as his barrier came down everything would hit him all at once.

Brax had just put the babies down for a nap when he heard a gentle knocking on the door. As he opened it he was shocked to see Charlie standing in front of him. She laughed when she noticed the muslin square draped over his shoulder.

"Hello Super-granddad" she giggled as she walked past him and headed into the lounge "I have brought a few more of Ruby's things" she added as she showed him the small holdall of clothes.

"Oh right ok, I would tell you to put them in their room but they are asleep" Brax explained.

"Oh ok I'll just leave them here" Charlie put the bag next to the sofa "So I bet its madness here now isn't what with Scarlet and Amelia under one roof.

"Nah its nice being busy all the time" Brax replied "Kinda helps you know"

Charlie knew exactly what Brax meant, she had found it hard over the last few weeks without Milly around "You miss Milly?" Charlie said. Brax shot his head up.

"Like you wouldn't believe" Brax said sadly "Its first thing in the morning that's the hardest, you know the first few seconds when I forget she's gone"

Charlie wasn't sure what to say, she had never felt that kind of pain before. She knew how it felt to lose a loved one but not in the way Brax did.

"Its ok I don't expect you to say anything" Brax smiled when he realised Charlie was starting to feel uncomfortable. A cry from Brax's bedroom broke the silence between them. Brax quickly rushed into the bedroom and took Amelia out of her crib, he carried her into the lounge and handed her to Charlie "So have you decided what you wanted to be called yet?" Brax smiled.

"Er yeah, me and Milly spoke about it and I decided I liked Nana. Milly was moaning that she was going to be a pregnant Granny" Charlie giggled remembering the last proper conversation she had, had with Milly.

Brax felt as though he had been hit in the stomach as Charlie's words reminded him Milly was pregnant when she died "Brax I'm sorry I didn't think" Charlie felt terrible that she had been so thoughtless.

For some reason Brax didn't feel angry at Charlie's comment, he just grinned at what Milly had said about being a pregnant Granny, this was so like her.

Please review and let me know what you think. I have decided to start referring to Ameliana as Milly to avoid confusion now that Ruby and Casey's baby is called Amelia. Love Nikki x x

Coming soon-

Brax and Charlie spend time together.

Scarlet's 1st Birthday!

Brax makes a life changing discovery!
