HEYY! Sorry I haven't updated in a while, it was my first week back at school. I have to say year 9 isn't what I thought it would be but hey- ho. Anyway, here is the next chapter please read and review.

"Yes" she replied gratefully. She was happy she had Sacha to support her. Jac watched as Sacha left the room and walk off the ward. Jonny was still asleep in the chair and Jac gazed at him as his chest rose and fell in a slow rhythm, synchronised to his breaths. She slowly walked over to him and crouched down in front of the chair. It's now or never, she thought. She lent in and tenderly kissed his sleeping lips. It took Jonny a couple of seconds before he woke properly and still with his eyes closed he responded passionately, pulling Jac up to sit on his knee.

"What?" Jonny asked smiling as they pulled apart.

"You're right, about me, you and Emma moving in together. But..." she took a deep breathe, was she finally opening up to him? "..I can't live in the same house as you and not be with you and waiting for you to bring home a girlfriend and then for you to marry her and leave me and I just. I can't. I-"Jac began speaking faster and faster as her eyes darted around the room rapidly, unable to make eye contact but was interrupted by Jonny's lips on hers.

"It's ok, I know" he said softly. Jac laid her head down on his chest as they watched their daughter happily looking around and fiddling with her toes.

That's it, he has done it. Well, not the way he had planned but all that mattered was they were back together. And did she mention marriage? he thought to himself. He wrapped his strong arm around jacs skinny frame. He looked down at her and noticed her eyes closed tightly and her body was limp. He let her stay like that but grasped her a little more tightly to prevent her slipping off the chair. Jonny realised that he was happy, content, and she looked that way too. Ever since Jac and he had split up he had felt different, even when he had bonnie. He was always more depressed and had a shorter temper, never mind that he and Mo rarely talked outside of work now.

He was brought out of his thoughts as Jac stirred from her sleep. It took her a minuet to remember he was encased in Jonny's arms, but as she did a huge smile sliced its way along her cheeks. So it wasn't just another dream!

"Hey, you have a nice sleep, because I don't think my legs have?" he joked softly. As she looked up at him.

"Oh, um, yeah sorry" she stutted as she slowly got off of his knee. Jonny got up and walked around to the side of the hospital cot and Jac did the same after straightening out her clothes. The parents linked hands over the cot while looking at their daughter. They marvelled about how easy this seamed. It was as if there never was a bonnie, they had never split up and they were the typical family (without the marriage of course) but Jonny was sure we could get that.

Just then the door to the side room opened and in walked Dr. Thomas. Jac and Jonny instantly let go of each other's hand and Jonny came round to jacs side of the bed. The doctor had a look on his face that neither Jac nor Jonny could read and an envelope n his hand.

"Do you know what it is?" asked Jonny urgently.

"Well, I have some good news and bad news, which do you want first?" he asked while both parents looked on at him, desperately praying for it to be something simple.

"Good" they both replied simultaneously.

"Ok, this is a very rear condition and it could have taken years to diagnose, however, I have recently been on a course for this and recognised the signs and symptoms, and it is good we diagnosed it quickly. The bad news is it is a condition that shortens the person's life span to around 8 to 21 years of age if you are lucky, I am so sorry" he explained solemnly.

"Ok, you've told us an implication but not what it is!" Jac stated getting angry, though she didn't know why; it was probably just the shock and needing to take it out on someone. Jonny grabbed her hand, a gesture to calm her down, and he noticed how jacs grip tinted around it.

"You're daughter has Hutchinson-Guilford Progaria Syndrome. It's most commonly known as Progaria. Are you familiar with this?" he could see from the look on jacs face that she knew exactly but Jonny he, he saw, hadn't got a clue.

"This disease causes a person to age prematurely. It is generally diagnosed in children who are 18 months to two years old. Symptoms include stiff joints, dislocated hips, hair loss, aged-looking skin, strokes and heart disease. People with Progaria live an average of 8 to 21 years, with heart disease being the most common cause of death." He explained and swiftly left the room after telling the parents if they have any questions to contact him.

Unfortunately for Jonny, he could tell instantly that jacs walls had gone straight up, as she stood there string at her babies monitor.

"Jac?" he spoke wearily ass he cautiously walked up to her.

"What are we going to do" her voice cracked with emotion, which surprised Jonny a little bit. He walked up behind her and spun her around by her shoulders and pulled her into an embrace. Jac wrapped her arms around him, figuring he needed more support than she did. A sob came from Jonny and she knew he was trying to hide it. She pulled away from him and looked into his eyes.

"We are going to get through this, and we will give Emma the best life in the world. Ok?" she said as tears spilled down her eyes too. Jonny nodded his head and getting rid of his tears. He knew Jac was just being strong for him, and the look on her face told him that she was trying desperately not to break down. But this was wrong, it's supposed to be him supporting her and drying her tears, not the other way around. He engulfed her in his grip. They stood there for a few minutes before Jac broke the silence.

"I can't lose her. It was a medical I even had her. I don't want to be a mother without a child, I don't know if I could do that" she spoke her fears out loud for the first time. Jonny pulled away and held onto her hands.

"You never know. You can do a lot in a short space of time, they might come up with a cure or medication to halt it or something" Jonny spoke positively, but he knew it would be unlikely. For now though, it was all they had.

THANK YOU! This chapter is very short but I really am stuck for ideas, I might just stop there and do a sequel but if you want me to carry on I NEED ideas. Thanks for reading I know it is crap but I am tired so… please review.
