A Family Life

Chapter 13

(In Virgil's point a view)

While Jo was in the sickbay, I just let her sleep so Tin-Tin had brought the babies and Robyn down to see us both. It didn't take long for Robyn to notice that Jo was laying in the bed and to start asking me questions.

"Daddy is Mummy, okay?" Asked Robyn who seen that her mother was a sleep.

"Mum is fine Robyn she is just having a nap because she had a very long day yesterday. But I know that she will want one of your special hugs that you like to give." I said to Robyn while Tin-Tin walked over to see how Grandma was doing. I am amazed that she has stayed in that bed and not headed to the kitchen.

"Grandma wanted to but I told her that she needed to be in for 24 hours but apart from that she is doing well and will be back to herself in no time." Said Lisa with a smile.

As we were over seeing Grandma, Jo decided to wake up. I could tell right away that she looked really confused so I made my way back over to my wife

"Virgil, where am I?"

"Jo you are back on Tracy Island and you are safe"

"Where are my babies?"

"We are all here Mummy" called Robyn who jumped onto the bed beside Jo. While Lisa brought Joshua over and I had Rebecca in my arms. As soon as Jo seen I could tell that she was close to tears.

"Are you okay honey?" I asked Jo.

"Yeah I just can't believe how big everyone has got" said Jo as Tin-Tin walked over to us.

"Do you want a photo while you are altogether here?"

"No thanks Tin-Tin, if I am honest, I want to wait until we have Scotty home with us." Said Jo, I knew that it will be a while before we get our youngest baby home with us. Just then we saw Lisa run into the bathroom to be sick, I saw come out and walked over to her "Lisa are you okay?"

"I don't know Virgil I have been like this all morning and haven't stopped being sick.?

"Lisa do you think that you could be expecting? Why don't you go and do a test while we are here with you?"

"I don't know Jo,"

"Then go and do one we aren't going anywhere."

"Then what if I am? How is Scott going to take the news?"

"Look Lisa don't worry about that for now; you can cross that bridge when you come to it." Said Jo while feeding Rebecca.

While Lisa was away to take a test, we got chatted more while feeding both babies. As we were talking Grandma decided to come around so I made my way over to her.

"Hey Grandma how are you feeling now?"

"Better but what happened?"

"You took a mini stroke earlier in the lounge but everything is looking good now. You are so lucky you had people around you when it happened. We want to keep you in here for 24 hours just to make sure that you are doing okay. I explained

"That is fine Virgil, how come Jo is in the bed next to me?"

"I might as well fill you all in on what happened, after we had finished the rescue at the hospital. We found out that Jo had been kidnapped again, we left both Gordon and Alan to close down the danger zone while we went after Jo. There wasn't a mark on her but she was scared, we know that the hood was behind it."

"Honestly everyone I am fine and just glad to get back to my family where I belong" said Jo with a smile.

A few days later everyone is out of the sickbay, Jo and I headed to the kitchen to see that Dad was sitting having his coffee, while Jo had made a start on feeding Joshua. I knew by the look on Dad's face that he was up to something.

"Good morning Jeff how are things with you this morning?"

"I am fine Jo, in fact can you two meet us all in the round house after you have finished here? Over the last few months, we have been working on something special for you two and it's in the round house."

"No worries Dad, Jo I am going to go and get Robyn up. Are you okay with Joshua and Rebecca? I asked I knew that she would be fine."

"I will be fine Virgil, go and get Robyn up. I should have Rebecca and Joshua fed by the time you come back." Said Jo who pulled down me for a kiss.

I made my way up to get Robyn went I passed Scott's bedroom. To see that his door was open and he looked really lost. So, I stepped into his bedroom. To check on him.

"Hey Scott are you okay there?"

"I don't know what to think Virgil, I feel that things are going okay between Lisa and I but I am scared to get too close to her. With what happened with Rebecca dying after that I could never see myself falling in love with anyone again. The thing is, Virg we slept together a couple of weeks ago."

"Easy Scott, if you loved Lisa and she makes you happy then I don't blame you. Why don't you come with me to get Robyn up? We made our way to Robyn's room to see that she was up and about already and waiting on me to come and get her.

"Hey Daddy and Uncle Scott how come you are looking so down? Asked Robyn who gave Scott a quick hug to try and cheer him up.

"I am fine Robyn just have a lot on my mind and thank you for the hug, I really needed it." Said Scott as we made our way back to the kitchen when Robyn went over to see Rebecca who Gordon had in his arms. After breakfast we all headed to the round house, where Dad had told us that he had something to show us.

"Well we have all been busy working on a little something for the two of you so you can come here with your family and we know with IR family time is going to be tricky for you both. So, we came up with this appartment idea for the two of you." Said Dad as he handed us our keys, we walked inside and Dad left us to it. We got the babies settled and I spent some time with Robyn on the newly placed piano and I could see how well she was doing; she would be doing her first piano recital before we knew it. Just then Lisa walked in looking shocked.

"What'd wrong Lisa?"

"I did the test and it is, I don't know if I want to do this"

"Lisa what did the test say?" Said Jo who took Lisa's hand in hers for support.

"It's positive, Jo what am I going to tell Scott?"
