Kim

Jack has been gone ages now and now its first thing in the morning so I haven't seen him since yesterday when he, Milton and Jerry left for the police station. It was annoying me now, I mean what can take so long at the police station? He hadn't even bothered to phone or even give me a quick text to let me know what is going on. Times like this I think what is the point of caring, if he isn't bothered.

I had lots to tell him now with me and my mum making up to the news that there are actually babies now instead of just one. The doctor's reaction wasn't exactly inspiring confidence either. But this isn't normal, according to the doctor its very rare, but what part of my life is normal now?

I yawned. I am still trying to figure out how I managed to doze off but I did.

Saraiya knocked on the door "So how is my favourite person?"

I liked the fact that she didn't me her patient, it made me feel normal as if there was nothing wrong, apart from the hole in my left side and my bump.

I sighed as she opened the curtains letting the sunlight stream in. "Kim is everything okay?"

I shrugged my shoulders "I don't actually know I mean I am physically fine I think but mentally I don't know yet. You haven't heard from or seen Jack since yesterday have you?"

"Sorry" she said as she lay me flat and felt gently around my bump, taking care near my stitches.

I grimaced as she touched it. Every time someone touches it I am reminded of what happened the last time I saw him.

"Do you some more meds?" she asked.

"No it only hurts when someone or something touches it" I smiled weakly.

"Well your bump feels fine to me but we will be keeping a closer eye on you" she said washing her hands.

The door opened and in walked Jack. Saraiya patted me on the shoulder "I'll be in later with the doctor to talk okay?"

"Hey beautiful" Jack said as kissed the top of my head.

I didn't move. I didn't know what to say or do.

"What's wrong?"

I didn't say anything. I felt like I was going to explode with anger. All I wanted was a simple text was that too hard to do?

He took my hand and sat next to me on the hospital bed "Look I am really sorry that I didn't come back yesterday after the police station"

"Why didn't you?" I snapped. I could feel my tears coming already. Way to go Kim that's not being tough. You said you were going to be strong for your babies and Jack reduces this to this mess. Well done you.

"I was there until ten o'clock last night. I did come over here straight after but I ran into your mum who told me not to bother because you were resting. I'm sorry I didn't want to disturb you" he explained.

I rubbed my face "I needed you yesterday I need to talk to you. I had my scan yesterday"

"is everything okay with you and the baby?"

A tear rolled down my cheek "everything is fine they're okay"

Jack let out a sigh of relief "Wait...hold on did you say they're okay?"

Another tear rolled down my cheek as I traced patterns on my bump with my finger "Jack there are two babies inside me but they're not twins"

Jack looked like he was going to faint "Is.. is...that even possible?"

I nodded "the doctor says its rare which is why she wants to keep a closer eye on them as one is three months younger than the other"

I lay back into his arms and he played with hair. Neither of us said anything else, what was there left to say? But the babies future, my future, his future, our future together can easily change now. And it scares the hell out of me. We don't know what is going to happen so what is the point about worrying about it now?

And besides I had Maddi's visit to looked forward to especially because Maddi hasn't failed to cheer me up yet.

"No matter what I will be here for you and the babies" Jack promised.

"You mean it?" I asked.

"I swear by the light of the dragon's eye to be loyal and honest and never say die" He swore.

We stayed there for an hour just enjoying each others company. Mainly Jack telling me about what had been happening at school while I've been stuck in here. He played with my hair as I did which relaxed me a lot.

I sighed and slowly sat up "You haven't told me yet: what happened at the police station?"

Jack rubbed his head "Kim I..."

The door burst open and in flew some helium balloons.

I raised my eyebrow "I am guessing my baby sis is in there somewhere?"

There was a giggle and she leapt at me.

"Maddison Avery Crawford be careful with your sister!" mum snapped from outside the door.

"It's okay" I said giving her a big hug. "I've missed you so much!"

"Me too Kimmy" she cried. "Hi Jack"

Jack kissed the top of my head and ruffled Maddi's hair and then left us alone.

I waved to mum who stood watching us from the window with a man who I have never seen before.

"Maddi who is that man with mummy?"

"Me and mummy live with Austin in his big house why can't you?"

I smiled "Soon kiddo but I need to get better first wanna see my scar?" I pulled up my gown and gently peeled back the bandage.

Maddi traced her finger along it "Does it hurt?"

"Yeah it did but its getting better" I said.

"Look, what I brought you" Maddi said. She held out one of the two teddies that she held in her hand.

I took it off her, it was beautiful white dog. "She's lovely thank you"

"She's called Pumpkin and this is Tessa her sister so they're just like us" Maddi said "But they like to be together"
