As each day came Jac's pregnancy was getting harder. The twins were beginning to move around the womb, making their stand. Jac and Joseph didn't want to find out the sexes , they wanted a surprise. Jac was now 5 months, meaning that they had 4 months to prepare for the birth of the twins.

Today was the day when the pair were going to find out the sex of their babies. They had agreed that they wouldn't find out the sexes but they couldn't resist the temptation. They found it hard to decorate the nursery in the Neutral colours, or even buying clothes was hard..

'Have you called Hanssen to say you'll be late?' Joseph asked as he was adjusting his clothes.

' Yes I have don't worry' Jac replied

' I'd never thought that Jac 'Ice Queen' Naylor would be pregnant and engaged... and to me'

' I guess, I'm sick of being broken all the time, although I'm still that ice queen, but Joe you have changed me' Jac admitted

' No need to say thank you then' Joseph smirked

Jac smiled sarcastically, she got up and walked over to the mirror where Joseph was standing. By the looks of things, Joseph was having trouble tying his tie, although he had done this for past 5 years. Jac moved his hands out the way and started to help with is tie. As she pushed the tie to the top button he placed both hands on her stomach and started to rub the baby bump. He could feel the warmth from her bump, inside that bump were their children. Jac moved her hands and placed them around Joe's neck. She then slowly kissed his soft lips.. When they kissed, it felt like it lasted forever. They didn't want to pull away, but when they did, they were left gasping for air. Jac couldn't help but think how lucky she was, for years she was given such bad luck, her mum left her at the age of 12, she was told her that her granddad was dead, when actually he was alive, her mum then came back but only wanted a kidney , so Jac gave her a kidney and she left again and the one man she truly loved had married the women she resented. Jac didn't want to dwell on the past but the memories would always be apart of her whether she liked it or not.

So as Jac and Joseph walked out the door with their hands interlocked they were off to find out the sex of their babies. Jac was excited and at the same time nervous, just in case something was wrong with them. She couldn't bare to have any more bad news. On the other hand Joseph was just felt with joyfulness. Joseph deep down was hoping for at least one little boy that he could get into football or at least have the father son moments that him and his father didn't.

Jac and Joseph were sat next to each other in the waiting room with their hands yet again interlocked. Jac could see it in Joe's eye that he was nervous, she pulled away her hand and placed it on his chin, were she pulled his face closer to hers. They shared a quick kiss before Joseph's hand found its way to Jac's leg.

' Jac Naylor' The midwife called out.

' Yes, that's me' Jac replied as she stood up and smiled, still holding onto Joseph's hand they strolled into the ultrasound room. Jac thought to herself ' in a matter of moments, we will know what we are having?' The midwife pointed to the bed meaning Jac had to get on it. So she did, She laid back on the chair still holding Joseph's hand, his hand felt hot, but the warmth was reassuring.

'I'm Claire and I'm going to be your midwife throughout your lovely pregnancy' Claire sweetly said.

The midwife lifted up Jac's top and placed the ice cold gel on her stomach before placing the monitor stick onto the gel.

' How are you two coping with the fact of having twins? The midwife said in her sweet voice

' We're coping alright, aren't we Joe?' Jac replied ' it was a shock, but I think its a good shock'

' When they arrive you will be so overwhelmed' The midwife said as as she moved the monitor stick around Jac's stomach 'and here are your babies'

Joseph felt his heat stop, this was the first time he had saw his children at a scan, the first time Jac had a scan was the confirmation and he saw them in the picture but nothing compared to seeing them move around and their little hearts flicker away. Joseph could feel tears building up before his eyelids. He then lifted up Jac's hand an kissed it gently.

' Jac.. its our babies' Joseph said as he tried to hold back the tears

'Would you like to know the sexes?' The midwife asked

'Yes' Jac and Joseph both replied in unison.

' Looking at them, you have a Boy and a Girl'

'p-perfect' Joseph replied as he looked up at Jac who was constantly smiling, a few tears spiked her eyes, as she blinked a few silent tears rolled down her cheeks

' Everything alright with them?' Jac asked.

' Yeah, everything seems perfectly fine, though your little boy is taking slower to grow but thats nothing to be worried about, he'll grow'

The thought of their little boy not growing made Jac feel anxious.

' I shall print out a photo, wait here' The midwife said as she wondered off.

Joseph stood up and sat on the bed with Jac still holding onto her hand, they were parents of a boy and a girl. Now, their life was complete.

'bet our little girl is going to have red hair and the same stubbornness as you eh?' Joseph joked.

' Thanks for that Joe, I'll remember that when its your turn to wait up at 4am to feed them' Jac said sarcastically as she wiped the gel of her stomach.

As Jac continued ' So, if our daughter is going to have red hair and stubbornness like me.. what's our little boy going to have from you then?.. maybe, the gene to be attracted to twisted women like Faye?' Jac laughed.

Joseph didn't answer, he just laughed as he pecked Jac's cheek. Jac arose from the chair as Claire returned to the room with the photo.

' Here's your photo, the next time I see you two will be on the day of the birth' Claire giggled.

' When exactly is our due date?' Joseph asked.

' Let me just check your notes' Claire replied as she scuttled through Jac's note.

Joseph's hand found its way to Jac's had yet again, she turned and gave him a wink. Jac held his hand tighter while the photo was in Joseph's other hand.

' September 10th' Claire replied

' You'll have to book that day off then' Jac said to Joseph as she giggled.

' Thanks Claire, see you then' Jac said as she smiled.

Jac and Joseph walked out of the Hospital parents to a little boy and a little girl. They were both so overjoyed, Jac had her little girl she could connect with and be a proper mother to while Joseph had his little boy he could teach football and have them father-son moments with. Joseph placed his hand around Jac's waist as they ventured to the car.

' So Jac, a boy and a girl it is'

' Well yes, that what she said' Jac said sarcastically

' Here comes the back chat'

' Excuse me Joseph Byrne'

' Oh Jac, I do love you' Joseph declared as he pulled Jac in for a kiss leaning her on the side of the car. Their kissed were always filled with such love, desire and passion.

' Looks like we've got to start thinking of names, do you have any suggestions my dear fiancée? Joseph asked.

' Joseph really? We've only just found out and now your thinking names? Um, I think our little boy should have Harry as his middle name, after your brother' Jac said

'That's really sweet of you Jac, harry will always be with me now' Joseph said as she kissed Jac on the lips.
As they pulled away, a little girl and her mum were walking past, by the looks of things the little girl was giving her mum some hassle'

' AMEILA, stop it' the mother shouted.

Joseph turned to Jac ' Amelia.. what about Amelia Grace?'

' Joseph, that's perfect. Our little Amelia with red hair' Jac chuckled ' If we have harry as a middle name, what goes with harry?'

' um, I'm thinking of the top of my head here but here goes. Christopher, James, Aaron, Ryan, Jack, Ethan..'

Jac interrupted his sentence ' Ethan, I like it'

Joseph put both his hands on Jac's stomach ' In 4 months time, we will have gorgeous babies Amelia Grace and Ethan Harry'

Jac smiled and placed her hand on Joseph's chin pulling him in closer for a kiss, as always their kisses were full of desire, when they kissed it was like it was only them in a world of their own, a world which they wished they never left. Joseph pulled away leaving Jac gasping for air, Jac proceeded with getting in the car, she pulled the seatbelt over her ever growing bump. She then placed one hand on the side of her bump and the other hand on Joseph's leg. The couple then drove off back to Holby General, to share their news with their friends and colleagues. Joseph pulled up in the car park before letting Jac out..

' its 11 o'clock, When does your shift start?' Joseph asked Jac

' It starts in about ten minutes, what about you?' Jac replied

' At 12; I'm going to head home for a bit and come back up'

' Joe, is there really any point of that? By the time you get home you'll have like 20 minutes until you have to be back in' Jac asked with a look of confusion

' Jac stop worrying, ill be back in time' Joseph said as he quickly kissed Jac's cheek and got back into the car before making a waste of a journey home.. but was it?

Jac shrugged her shoulders before waddling into the hospital. As she waited for the elevator, she saw out of the corner of her eye Sahira in the corner of the room, it looked as if she was sobbing in her hands. Jac abandoned the elevator and made her way over to Sahira.

'Sahira, What's wrong?'

'um.. its um. Nothing. Don't worry' Sahira said as she tried to fight back the tears.

' come one, lets go somewhere private' Jac said as she stood up and pulled Sahira up with her.

The pair walked towards the staff room, where Jac managed to sit down slowly, being five months pregnant meant Jac couldn't sit down as quick as normal. Sahira slumped down on the chair and once again placed her head in her hands.

' Now, tell me what's wrong? I'm not asking to be your best friend or anything like that. I'm just simply worried about you'

'I know, your here for me Jac, its just come as a shock. I cant understand why he didn't tell me'

' Who? Who didn't tell you what? Sahira, your not making any sense' Jac exclaimed

' James..'

' James? What did he do?' Jac questioned

' well, he has another child, but not with me'

' what? I don't understand?' Jac said with a some confusion.

Sahira continued 'when I found out I was pregnant again on Ben's 4th birthday, James went out and celebrated that night with his brother. But he never came home' Sahira gulped ' he slept with someone, and obviously contraception wasn't thought of, now two years down the line, he finds out he has another son'

' Oh my god, Sahira I'm so sorry'

' Jac, there's no need to be sorry, James should be the one apologising, it might have been one night but he cheated on me' Sahira weeped as she burst into tears again.

' But what's going to happen now? I mean, between you two? And this new little member?' Jac once again questioned

' I don't know, I don't want split up with James, he's my life, the father to my sons but he betrayed me with another woman. In result he has another son. Oh Jac, I don't know what to do' Sahira weeped again.

' Did you and the boys want to stay at mine and Joe's tonight? We have the room if you want to' Jac asked.

' I'm taking the boys to my parents, so it would only be me if that's alright?

' Yes that's fine' Jac replied as he hugged Sahira who sobbed into Jac's shoulder

Meanwhile, back at home. Joseph had stopped off at the local shopping centre. He went into shops such as 'toys r us, mother care and B&Q' this were the obvious shops. He then went home, threw down his keys and his jacket and made his way up the room which Jac had claimed to be the twin's nursery. Joseph opened the bags and got to work..

Joseph finished touching up the room before he stood back and look upon his work. He had painted all the walls cream apart from the wall with the window which was painted a lemon colour. Two white cribs were placed neatly against the back wall. One cot had a light blue colour bedding, at the end of this cot a bear sat with a blue ribbon tied around it's neck. Above this cot was a mobile was hanging, the mobile had little cars and boats hanging. Where-as the other cot had a pale pink bedding, similar features a white bear at the end of the cot, this time the bear had a pink ribbon tied around it's neck, and of course there was a mobile hanging above the cot this time a pink mobile with pink butterflies and fairies hanging. Behind the cots on the back wall the words E-T-H-A-N in wooden letters, the letters were decorated in blue pastel horizontal stripes. Next to the letters were A-M-E-L-I-A in wooden letter too, these too were decorated in horizontal stripes but this time in pink pastel colours. White lace curtains hung over the window. Underneath the window was a changing table and in the corner of the room was a white rocking chair which slowly rocked. Joseph peered down at his watch which read 12:00 O'clock meaning he had half an hour to get back to work. He tied up all the paintbrushes and shut the door of the nursery, the door wasn't to be opened until Jac came home.

Throughout her shift, Jac couldn't help but think of Sahira and James. The fact that the twins were kicking like hell didn't help. How could James do something like this to Sahira. Jac knew that at this time she had to give her friend all the support she needed. Jac knew Sahira and James would patch things up, they were meant to be. Although it would be pretty hard to forgive your husband for having a one night stand and having a song that you didn't know about. Jac's shift was filled with the same atmosphere, patients were going into VF, crash times were called at least four times, broken legs were occurring all afternoon. Multiple surgery slots were to be completed. Jac just wanted to go home and see Joseph. The twins were making her feel really uncomfortable, she was forever accompanied by a back pain which seemed to occur at the worst possible times.

' Ms Naylor' Hanssen called as he made his way out to the ward.

' yes Hanssen' Jac replied, she really wasn't in the mood.

' Shouldn't you be on maternity leave?'

' No, I leave next week if you must know'

' That's fine Ms Naylor, you can go'

Jac made a face behind Hanssen's back before going to collect Sahira and going home. Jac had forgot to let Joseph know that Sahira was coming back but she knew that it wouldn't be a problem. Joseph however, was still working his shift meaning that Sahira had to drive herself and Jac back to her house. As they arrived at Jac's house, Jac threw down her keys, and took of her shoes before waddling into the kitchen and making her and Sahira a well earned coffee.

' Have you decided what your going to do?' Jac asked as she handed Sahira the coffee.

' I think I'll go back to him and talk, nothing is going to happen unless I talk to him'

' Will you still stay here tonight? Your welcome any time' Jac smiled

' I think I'll go back home tonight, I don't want to leave it any longer to be honest' Sahira replied

' Oh alright, if you and the kids ever need time out. I'm sure Joe wont mind you staying here with us for a few day, it will get us used to having children around'

' When your on maternity leave ill bring them round on my day off yeah?' Sahira said as she put down the cup and made her way out.

' I'll see you later then Shah, hope it goes well' Jac replied before giving her hug a friend.

Joseph wasn't due home until half 3, he was on a late shift meaning Jac had over 7 hours alone, she still didn't know about the nursery. Jac changed from her tracksuit into the comfort of her pyjamas before slowly getting into bed, It felt empty, normally Joseph would be in the house or at least of been next to her in bed. Jac hated times like this, when she was alone at home. Jac placed one hand on her stomach before saying ' not long know you two, I love you' to her bump. She then slipped into a deep sleep.

Jac was awoken by a bang. As she rubbed the sleep from her eyes , she then reached for her dressing gown, she slipped it over her body and walked down stairs. Walking down the stairs Jac was thinking that she was burgled, Joseph still wasn't home yet. She walked around the kitchen and into the lounge to find Joseph picking up some DVD's from the floor. Joseph noticed she was standing there with a awful look on her face. He then placed the DVD's on the table and walked over to Jac.

' I didn't mean to wake you Jac' Joseph said as he hugged Jac

' Mm yeah, and how did DVD's get on he floor?' Jac asked

' Well, I went to put my keys on the side and I turned around quick meaning my bag flung them off' Joseph replied

' Okay, well I'm going back to bed, you coming?'

'I'll be there in a minute, I want to show you something' Joseph smiled as he held Jac's hand and led her upstairs.

' Joseph its twenty past 3, I'm not really interested' Jac moaned.

Joseph didn't answer, he stood in front of the nursery still holding onto Jac's hand. He turned the handle and swung the door opened. As he did that, Jac's mouth dropped. She slowly walked in the room, looking around at every inch of detail of the room. Jac walked over to both cots, stroking the sides of the cots. A smile grew on Jac's face, she turned to look at Joseph who was leaning against the door frame with his hands folded. Jac turned to look at the corner of the room where the rocking chair was rocking. A lime blanket was hanging over the back, she walked towards the blanket and picked it up, in each corner of the blanket was the names ' Ethan, Amelia, Jac and Joseph.

Jac turned to Joseph pointed to the blanket and said 'That's us'

Joseph nodded, he walked over to the window were a little white box was sat. A red ribbon was tied around the box. Joseph strolled over to Jac and handed her the box.

' What's this?'

' Open it, and find out'

So she did, Jac carefully untied the ribbon and opened the box. In side the box was a dainty gold bracelet. Jac picked up the bracelet to look at it in more detail. The gold bracelet had a little heart in the middle, one side had 'J+E' and the other side had 'J+A' this resembled their family. Jac rubbed the letters with her fingers, a small tear dropped from her eye lid and fell upon the golden heart. Joseph took the bracelet in his hand and placed it around Jac's wrist before taking his fiancée in his arms and taking her back into their bedroom
