AN - So I told myself I would update this chapter 3 hours ago... god knows what happened between then and now but there you go. Also if you don't now what the RAMC crest looks like I recommend you look it up - Anyway Enjoy :)

Yesterday we all had a lazy day st in front of the TV in our Pj's watching DVD's but somehow I don't think Today is going to go quite a smoothly, for a start I need to get up and get Amelia ready for nursery get the twins ready as we have a check-up with the neonatal nurse at 9:25 and then I need to go shopping as well but this is all on near enough no sleep as William had a really unsettled night last night and I spent most of it awake with him downstairs o he didn't wake anyone else up.

Maybe I should go upstairs and check that Amelia is awake but I really just can't I don't want to move but I know I need too.

"Morning Sam, Tom asked me to ask you to phone him after the check-up, he would have asked himself but he didn't want to wake you" Sarah said smiling. "I was wondering what Check-up this is" She added.

"For the boys with the neonatal nurse just to check on their development, is Amelia up?" I asked.

"Yep, I asked her to wait upstairs as you were asleep down here, I also brought Oliver down he's in his carry cot just over there, I was about to get him a bottle when I noticed you had woken up" Sarah explained.

"Right, thanks and could you please feed Oliver for me while I go and get ready and get Amelia sorted for nursery? And if William wakes can you give him a cuddle, he's been so unsettled I hope there's nothing wrong" I asked.

"I was going to feed him anyway and don't worry about William you have the check-up later today but I'm sure he just wanted lots of cuddles and take your time with Amelia, I will sort the boys out for you" Sarah said smiling.

"Thank you so much Sarah it's so nice having an extra pair of hands around, you wouldn't mind making me a coffee would you?" I asked as I stood up and stretch.

"Of course 2 sugars?" She asked heading off towards the kitchen and I nodded before slowly walking upstairs.

"Millie, let's get you ready for nursery" I told her walking into her room which had her wooden safari set all over the place.

"Okay Mummy" She said standing up and coming over to me.

I put her in a plum long sleeve top, a puffy pale pink skirt with matching plum horses on and then matching pale pink and plum striped leggings. I quickly put her hair in plats and found her denim jacket before sending her off down stairs to asked Sarah from some breakfast.

The task of getting ready wasn't quite as easy for me as ever since I have been back I have been a lot smaller and now after giving birth I can't seem to find anything to hind my left over bump with, which I really need to go running to sort out, I had near enough empty everything out of my draws when I finally decided to just wear my over-sized Royal Army Medical Corps undershirt as it would hide everything although it has got the distinctive RAMC crest on the top left with Major S.R. Nicholls embroidered under the crest. The tan shirt looks so strange on now but I guess it will do as no one will suspect a thing I wear it along with a pair of black skinny jeans and a pair of tan combat boots. I put my hair into a loose fishtail plat and quickly go a grab them matching outfits, one with a blue and white striped long sleeve baby grow and Pale blue quilted gilet with brown fleece footed bottoms with a little monkey face on eat foot and on the pocket of the gilet and one outfit with a pale blue long sleeve vest and a pale blue and white striped quilted gilet with the same bottoms and same monkey face's, I grab both of the monkeys from their cots and run back down stairs.

"Sarah, so sorry that took a while I didn't know what to wear" I admitted running into the kitchen.

"Sam Nicholls, not knowing what to wear… what is the world coming to" Sarah Laughed and turned around passing me a cup of coffee.

"Thank you so much, how where the boy's and Amelia?" I asked taking a sip.

"The boy's where as good as gold and Amelia has had some toast for breakfast and is just in the other room watching TV with the boy's, Nice T-shirt by the way" Sarah laughed walking past and going into the other room.

"It was all I could find, that hid my after bump, which I really need to go running to help it disappear but thank you so much for feeding them and sorting out Amelia" I told her walking in after her.

"No problem, they are all angels, and I can watch the boys after if you want to go out for a run, I don't mind" Sarah offered and I just smiled.

"That sounds wonderful, The longer I put it off the harder it will be to motivate myself as it has been 5 of so months since I last went running" I admitted and Sarah just giggled. "Right well its 8 already so maybe we should get these cheeky monkeys dressed and Millie to nursery" I added.

"Pass me some of the clothes I will sort William out so you can have a cuddle with Oliver as you haven't had any all night" Sarah said and I handed her the outfit with the stripy gilet. "They're like 2 peas in a pod" Sarah added once they were both dressed. Which caused Millie to giggle.

"They're not peas silly, peas are little green vegetables" Amelia explained which made us both laugh.

"Come on you let's get your shoes on and get you in the car" I told her carrying Ollie out to the car and placing him in one of the car seat's strapping him up and handing him over Cola and Sarah did the same for William and I passed her Pepsi before I went back inside to get Amelia's shoes on her she had tried to put them on herself but got the wrong feet they were plum converses with pale pink velcro straps so I quickly took them off and changed them around, making sure I had everything I needed before grabbing Amelia's hand and locking up before helping her get into her seat but she knew how to strap herself up now so that was one less think to worry about. I then got into the front and started to drive to the nursery. It wasn't long as there wasn't much traffic for a change until we were at the nursery.

"Sarah you don't mind waiting in the car with the twins, do you?" I asked.

"No go, it will be easier without you having to get them out" Sarah smiled so I got out and opened the door for Amelia as they had a child lock. I was the first time I have dropped her off since the birth so I don't think this is going to be a quick in and out.

"Come on Millie" I said taking her hand and walking into the nursery.

"Hey Sam, you seem to be missing something or rather someone" One of the Dad's said pointing to my stomach.

"I gave birth last week to twin boys who are in the car with a friend" I explained and he just chuckled.

"What are they called" A Mum asked this time over here the conversation.

"Millie what are your bothers names?" I asked her.

"William and Oliver" Amelia said smiling.

"Awww that's so cute" A different Mum said. I was already fed up of this.

"When will we meet them?" Asked a different Dad.

"When they are a bit older as I did have them a month early" I explained and he nodded.

"This little one was early too" He said ruffling his son's hair.

"Ellie" Amelia said and ran off to talk to her.

"Morning Sam, where are the little monkeys?" Ben asked carrying Logan.

"In the car with Sarah, as soon as I'm done here down to the hospital for a check-up" I explained and he just nodded.

"I remember when Logan had his first check-up it was also the first time Amelia came for dinner" Ben said and I Just smiled remembering it was the day I also made peace with my mum.

Mrs Hall then opened the door and I took Amelia in.

"Morning Sam" Lauren said smiling as she saw me walk in.

"Morning Lauren, it's been one hell of a morning and I have forgotten to bring Amelia any lunch and I have the twins check-up to get to and I don't think I will be able to drop any in. would you be able to get her something from the shop, I can give you some money" I explained.

"Mummy" Amelia wined pulling on my trousers.

"Of course Sam, and nice top by the way, where did you pull that one out from" She laughed and I pulled out a £5 note and gave it to her.

"Mummy" Amelia carried on but I just wanted her to stop.

"What's wrong baby girl?" I asked.

"I don't want to stay, my tummy hurts" She said nearly crying.

"Millie please, you know I have a busy day with the twins why don't you stay for now with Lauren and if it gets worse Lauren can give me or Daddy a ring to come and get you" I tried to reason with her.

"But Mummy" She said crying.

"Look Millie I would love to just take you home and have a cuddle but you know I need to take the twins to hospital why don't you give Lauren a cuddle, I'm sure she won't mind" I suggested.

"But I want you" She said crying and everyone turned to look at us.

"Millie please, mummy's head hurts and the twins have their appointment please just give Lauren a cuddle and if it gets worse I promise, either me or Daddy will come and get you but I need to get going" I explained. I could hear some of the other parent's whispering behind me.

"Amelia, baby come and give me a cuddle Mummy's tired and she needs to go take the twins to the hospital" Lauren said and picked up Amelia who snuggled in to her. I gave Amelia a kiss and then said good bye, Lauren walked with me to the door.

"Look Sam, don't worry about it I know who hard it is with a premature baby with all the hospital appointments and the late nights early morning feeds but I can't imagine what it is like with twins, I will look after Amelia and if she gets worse I will give you a ring" Lauren said loud enough so the other parents could hear and all of a sudden they stopped whispering. No one knew other than the few that had asked that I had the twins early and barely any of them even knew I was having twins. I said bye once more before heading back out to the car and down to the hospital for their check-up, its barely even 9 o'clock and today already feels like it's going to be a nightmare…
