Jac and Sahira were sat around Jac's coffee table as they were scanning through Wedding Magazines and gulping down coffee like it was a drug. It has been exactly four weeks since Joseph had been officially divorced from Faye, the last thing on Jac and Joseph's list was to tie the knot.

'What about this one?' Sahira spoke as she showed Jac the book containing a white ballerina style dress, with lace bow on the back.

' If I wanna look like mother Teresa' Jac joked carried on scanning through the magazines ' I don't want to be centre of attention Sahira, I'd rather go for something low-key'

'But its your big day, your going to be the person everyone talks about'

'Nothing knew there then'

Jac closed the magazines and pulled herself out the chair, She wondered upstairs and peeked her head around the door of the twin's bedroom. Ethan and Amelia were peacefully sleeping in their cots, Jac crept in further and stood between the cots. Jac couldn't believe how she spent years of building her 'Ice Queen' title was finally melting, she finally found a man who she let in and he didn't betray her. Jac looked down at Ethan who was now awake, his soft emerald eyes were looking back at Jac as she smiled. Jac bent down and stroked Ethan's face. She carefully picked up him not forgetting his duck, trying not to wake up Amelia, Jac crept out the room and back down to Sahira.

'Oh look, its my handsome little godson' Sahira cooed as Jac sat back next to her with Ethan in her arms.

'Technically he isn't, because we still haven't decided yet who's god parent' Jac muttered as she gave out a smirk.

'Stop being a party poop-er Jac, give him to Aunty Sahira and go make us another coffee' Sahira laughed as she cradled Ethan in her arms, she stroked his littler fingers as they clasped around her index finger.

'You don't want much then Sahira' Jac joked as she walked towards the kitchen and prepared two coffees.

Else where, Joseph was kept on his toes at Holby General today, no time for a break. He had to perform a Valve Replacement and a Kidney Transplant. Not to mention a few Emergency Surgeries, to top it all off he had a meeting at the end of the day, the meeting was for Joseph to cut hours. He wanted to be home more, to be with the twins. With both him and Jac working, he didn't want to twins to be growing up in a crèche, always left for a nanny or babysitter to look after them. The twins were Jac and Joseph's responsibilities.

News spread like a wild fire at Holby, within Joseph's first shift, everyone knew about his and Jac's plan to get married. It was typical for some comments to be made, mainly from Donna and a few from Mark Williams. Not everyone was supportive through his and Jac's relationship, they were just thankful for the people that were there.

'Mr Byrne you may come in' Hanssen dull voice projected along the hallways as Joseph was sat nervously on the chair's outside.

Joseph nodded and followed in. Ever Since Hanssen has become Big man and Connie left, the hospital hasn't been what its meant to be about apart from the obvious of saving lives. Joseph preferred it when Connie was in charge, who didn't? He wasn't afraid to ask her anything, where-as with Hanssen Joseph felt a little off edge when speaking to him. Joseph wasn't scared of Hanssen, at least he didn't think he was. He just needed to cut his hours, that's simple enough.

'What is it you want'

'Well, um.. I was wondering if it was any possible to cut my hours?' Joseph asked

'Why would you want to do such a thing?'

'I want to spend more time with the twins Jac'

'But Ms Naylor isn't due back for another week, can't see manage on her own while your working?'

'Of course she can, but it would be nice to see my children grow up plus when she comes back, the twins would have to be in the crèche nearly three times a week, that's not the lifestyle we want for our children '

'Alright Mr Byrne, it was only a thought, but cutting down hours for a Consultant Cardiothoracic Registrar will need some persuading' Hanssen droned on.

'Please Henrik' Joseph pleaded

'If you insist, I see what I can do' Hanssen gave in.

Joseph shook his hand before walking out his office and back onto the ward, he was stunned to see Jac in mid-conversation with Sacha and Sahira while slowing pushing the double buggy back and forth. Ethan and Amelia were wrapped up in their blankets as they cooed when nurses stopped by and tickled their miniature fingers

'Jac What are you doing here?' Joseph questioned Jac as he bent down to kiss the twin's forehead.

'Sahira had to work, so I thought to come with her, I know Mr Levy was desperate to see Ethan'

'Joseph may I saw Ethan is the replica of you' Sacha added.

'You make him sound like a statue' Jac smirked.

Jac unbuckled Ethan from the buggy and handed him over to Sacha. Ethan was dressed in grey dungarees which were a present from Michael. Even Sacha was in awe over Ethan. His green eyes opened wide as Ethan glared up at Sacha face. Chantelle skipped over when she saw Jac. Chantelle was too happy for Jac's liking, but she always seem to lift the spirit.

'O.M.G they are just the cutest babies ever' Chantelle squealed as he started to play with Amelia who was smiling and cooing back at her 'Can I get her out before I go back to work?'

Jac nodded as she watched Chantelle carefully lift out Amelia who was dressed in white laced dress completed with dainty white socks. Just like a little girl should be. Chantelle placed on arm underneath Amelia's hand and another underneath her legs, Amelia snuggled into Chantelle's embrace as she slowly rocked her back and forth.

'Ah Naylor, so nice of you return' Michael blabbed with American accent which seemed to be very broad today.

'Just checking to see if my ward is being managed probably'

Sacha's pager started to beep so he handed Ethan back to Jac and hurried to the emergency. Michael's face began to light up as he noticed Ethan wearing the clothes he brought, technically it was Anneliese who chose them. Joseph's pager too bleeped so with a quick peck on the cheek he was gone.

'So Naylor have you decided Godparents yet? Hint hint' Michael babbled

'well it definitely isn't you, I don't want your over-sized ego to rub off onto my children thank you very much' Jac smirked.

'That was deep Naylor, very deep.' Michael moaned as he walked off.

Chantelle placed Amelia back her her buggy and got back to work. Jac was left with the twins, she felt some what a bit lonely. So she decided to retreat back to her office. To be honest Jac missed work more then anything, she wanted to be back in her routine of theatre slots, emergency patients, ward rounds and even the usual banter with Sahira or Michael not to mention sharing an office with Elliot Hope.

Jac sat back in her chair and turnt on her computer. On the edge of her desk was a pile of letters, one by one Jac opened them. Most of them were Congratulations Cards, but one of them was the cards from Sahira when Ethan was in hospital. Jac's body was overtaken by a wave of sorrow. She wish she didn't find this card, it reminded Jac of the constant heart ache she had, the moments were she'd believed that Ethan was gone for good. For her own families sake, Jac shoved the card to the back of her draw. She'd knew she would live to regret it when she would later on search through the draw for something and find it. A little part of Jac was grateful, the team here at Holby had send their regards and best wishes to her and Joseph. Jac was never a catholic person, she didn't believe in miracles or anything but she did believe that the support from the ones around them helped Ethan pull through.

'Jac what is that awful smell?' Elliot complained as he barged through the door with a cream cake in his hand.

'A little surprise from the children I suspect' Jac replied as she arose from her chair and investigated which baby had done the dirty. It was Amelia. 'Elliot just watch Ethan why I go to the loo and change Amelia'

'I'm sorry I got bypass surgery in twenty minutes, I have to go and get scrubbed up' Elliot spoke as he threw the cake wrapper in the bin and left.

Looking down at the baby in her arms just whispered 'looks like we're going to have to clean you here' and Jac did so, she got out the blanket from the changing bag and laid it on the floor. She then placed Amelia down on it, Jac sat back on the floor with her legs either side of the baby as she began changing her nappy.

Oliver needed a second opinion on a patient but nobody was around, his only option was to go and ask Jac although she wasn't working infact she wasn't meant to be at all. He wrapped his stethoscope around his neck and paraded to Jac's office. He glared through the window to find Jac Naylor changing nappies. Even he was gob smacked, he thought to go in but left it. He was sure there would be another Doctor on the ward.

Jac put a clean Amelia back in the buggy next to her sleeping little brother and retired back to her computer. Jac was searching the internet for wedding venues. People wouldn't of pictured Jac being the type to search the internet for wedding venues, not many of them imagined Jac getting married. After a while she came across a familiar hotel, she felt like this was the perfect place to marry Joseph.

She picked up the phone and dialled the hotel number, Jac was hoping they would have a free date this year. She wanted to marry Joseph as soon as possible. After a lot of persuading, Jac was able to set a date for the wedding, she knew she should have confirmed it with Joseph but she wanted to surprise him when they were at home after his shift.

'Come on babies, better go and find your dad and go home' Jac sighed as she left her office.

On her way down to the front of the hospital she was stopped numerous about of times and was asked questions about the twins. Sahira stopped her a few times as well dropping hints that she should be godparent.

'There's my beautiful family' Joseph smiled as he walked up towards Jac and giving her a gentle kiss. He then started to push the buggy as Jac rested one arm behind his back.

As they were getting the twins in the car Jac couldn't help but smile, she had thought to herself that this was the right moment to tell him. Joseph finished buckling Ethan up and walked around the car to were Jac was resting against the car door with a smile plastered on her face.

'Why you grinning like that?' Joseph questioned as he held Jac close to him.

'I've found a venue and set the date'

'Really? When and where?'

'Hotel Miramar, the hotel we stayed in when we went to Bournemouth. That's were out relationship started so I thought why not get married there' Jac revealed.

'That's such a lovely thought, its perfect' Joseph smiled as he kissed his fiancée. 'what day?'

'This is going to sound nothing like me, because you know I don't do festive periods or anything. Im not into all that-'

'Jac just get to the point' Joseph laughed as he and Jac laughed together.

'I booked it for Christmas Eve' Jac squirmed

'That is so not like you Jac Naylor, but it sounds pretty perfect to me' Joseph whispered as he kissed Jac passionately.

So that was it, 24th December Jac Naylor would marry Joseph Byrne.

Please R&R guys! Do you think i should skip it to the wedding? or do a few more filler chapters before the wedding? Your opinions would be lovely. xxx
