Nick and Zoe had both booked the morning off work today as it was the day that Phoebe was finally having her cast removed and they also had their second pregnancy scan.

"Why isn't Phoebe wearing her school uniform?" Ollie moaned as he joined his mum and dad in the kitchen.

"Because she's going to the hospital to get her cast removed" Zoe reminded him.

"So she doesn't have to go to school?" Ollie asked.

"Nope, but you still do" Zoe said, knowing that he was going to moan about this any second now.

"That's not fair, I don't feel very well though" He continued to moan, clutching his arm around his stomach as he dragged himself over to the kitchen table.

Nick walked over and placed the palm of his hand on Oliver's forehead, "Nice try" He chuckled, catching onto his son's plan.

Oliver groaned "I never get a day off school" He mumbled under his breath in annoyance.

"You all ready Phoebe?" Nick smiled as his youngest daughter entered the room. She had such an unsettled look upon her face and Nick couldn't work out whether she was just tired or if she was worrying about today.

"Yeah" She nodded unconvincingly "Will it hurt today?" She asked. Ever since breaking her arm she was still a little nervous about going to the hospital even though it was like her second home.

Nick shook his head "You won't feel a thing I promise" He smiled to reassure her, causing a little smile to also appear on her face.

"You are not wearing your wellies to the hospital" Zoe said as she noticed what Phoebe had dressed herself in. She was in such a mix match outfit. Zoe knew that allowing her to get dressed on her own wasn't such a good idea.

"Why not?" Phoebe glared. She loved her wellies, they were bright pink and covered in ponies and she loved to wear them anywhere and everywhere.

"Because they're dirty, now go and get changed please" Zoe ordered, sending her back upstairs.

Once they were all finally dressed and ready, they dropped both Maisie and Oliver off at their schools and then went to the hospital. They were a little early for Phoebe's appointment however, so Nick being a typical clinical lead decided that this was a perfect opportunity for him to just check up on his department.

"I didn't think you two were in work today?" Charlie asked as he saw them all leaving Nick's office.

"Well you know Nick, can't stay away for 5 minutes" Zoe laughed, rolling her eyes.

Charlie laughed "That is true" He said, seeing the unimpressed look Nick was now giving Zoe.

"I'm getting my cast off today Charlie" Phoebe excitedly told him, waving her pink cast around for him to see. She couldn't wait for it to come off now, 6 weeks had been long enough and she was so excited to be able to return back to swimming soon.

"Oh wow" Charlie said, matching the excitement on Phoebe's face "How exciting"

They soon said goodbye to Charlie and headed upstairs to the children's ward for their appointment.

"Mum I'm really scared" Phoebe whispered to Zoe as they sat in the waiting room. She had just had an X-ray to confirm that her bones had now healed correctly and all they had to do now was to wait for it to be removed.

"There's nothing to worry about, you won't feel a thing" Zoe reassured her.

"Phoebe Jordan" A nurse called as she entered the waiting room to come and get her.

They all stood up and Phoebe automatically gripped onto Zoe's hand for comfort as they headed into the cubicle.

Phoebe climbed onto the bed and as soon as she was comfortable the doctor began to removed the cast.

"You alright?" Zoe asked as she noticed the look on Phoebe's face and her hand gripping onto the side of the bed.

"It tickles" Phoebe started to giggle at the vibrations that were being created as the doctor began to saw away her cast.

Nick and Zoe both laughed as they watched her sit giggling the whole way through, she had definitely changed her mood from all the worrying she was doing this morning. It didn't take long and the cast was soon off.

"Does that feel better?" Nick asked as he saw Phoebe instantly flexing her arm slightly as the cast was removed.

"It feels strange" Phoebe said.

"It will do because you're used to your cast" Nick told her.

The doctor then assessed Phoebe's arm to check that everything was OK and signed her off "Well everything looks fine to me, I think you're ready to go" The nurse smiled at Phoebe "Would you like a sticker for being a brave girl?" She asked as Phoebe climbed off the bed.

"Yes please" Phoebe instantly nodded as she chose a sticker from the doctors collection.

"Thank you" Nick said as the doctor left the cubicle for them to get their belongings together.

"Now we've got to go and have a scan of the baby, so would you like to come and see your baby brother or sister with us?" Nick asked.

Phoebe's face instantly light up with excitement "Yeah" She grinned. She couldn't wait for the baby to arrive now and they both knew she would love to see this scan.

"Come on then" Nick smiled, putting his arm around Zoe as he guided them both out of the room.
