Once Upon A Straight Tequila Night
Chapter 39 - Grand-Mamma Comes To Visit
Fran's POV
I haven't said anything to Derek and Penelope but I am moving to Virginia so that I am closer to them and the triplets, I have already found a place to live and all my belongings have been packed up and are in the removalist truck and on the way to Virginia, Sarah and Desiree have decided to stay in Chicago as they both have work and school so Desiree is moving in with Sarah and I have sold the house and I am now on my way to my new home.
Finally I arrive in Virginia and I call Derek he answers on the second ring and he says "hey Mamma how are you" I say "I am fine baby boy, I have just arrived in Virginia and I was wondering which hospital Penelope is in so I can come and visit my grand-babies" Derek replies "I didn't know you were coming to Virginia Mamma, but now that you are here we are at the Virginia Hospital Center we will see you soon" I say "yeah baby boy I will see you all soon."
Derek's POV
Penelope and I are sitting in her room feeding the triplets their bottles when there is a knock on the door I look up to see Mamma standing there with a huge smile on her face, I smile and say "come on in Mamma and meet your grand-babies" Mamma walks in and comes to Penelope's side and leans down to give her a kiss on the forehead and says "oh Penelope they are absolutely beautiful" Penelope handed one of the girls over to Mamma and said "meet Jamilla Emily Morgan she was our first born, I have Evaleigh Jennifer Morgan she is our second born" Penelope then looks over to me and says "would you like to introduce your Mamma to our son Handsome."
I look down and smile at my son who is sucking contently on his bottle and then I look back up to Mamma and say "Mamma meet Derek Franklin Morgan Jr. he is our youngest, but they are all doing really well considering that they were born at 28 weeks and hopefully if they keep up with the way that they have been for the last 2 days then we will be able to go home at the end of the week" all the babies have now finished their bottles and are all now sound asleep in the arms of their parents and grand-mamma when Mamma says "well I should be heading off and let you get some rest" I look at Mamma and say "Mamma is there something your not telling us."
Mamma nods her head and says "actually yes there is something I wasn't telling you until now, so here it goes Derek and Penelope I have sold the house in Chicago and have bought a house here in Virginia so that I could be close by to help out with the triplets and I am actually off to meet the removalists at my new house so I will see you later" Mamma leans down and kisses my cheek before kissing little DJ's forehead and then she made her way over to Penelope and kisses her forehead and then leans down to kiss Eva's forehead before she kisses Millie's forehead and lays her in her Mommy's arm and then leaves the room.
Penelope's POV
I can't believe that Fran didn't tell us that she was moving here to Virginia, but I must admit it will be handy to have her around to help with the triplets when Derek returns back to work, Derek and I have just put Millie, Eva and DJ into their plastic bassinets so that they can sleep and so that I can get some rest too I shuffle over in bed and make room for Derek and even though I am in a little bit of pain I can't bear not to be held by my husband for another night as I say "Derek will you lay with me please" he looks at me and says "are you sure baby because I don't want to hurt you in any way" I nod and say "please Handsome I need you to hold me"
Derek's POV
I am sitting on the side of Penelope's bed after just putting our little ones to bed when she says "Derek will you lay with me please" I look at her and say "are you sure baby because I don't want to hurt you in any way" she nods and says "please Handsome I need you to hold me" so I toe my shoes off and climb up on the bed and lay down behind her and gently wrap my arm around her so as I don't touch her stitches and we both drift off sleep, I only go into a light sleep so that I get up to the babies if one should wake.
