Billie Scott- Dumping ground

Chapter 25

I had moved a lot of my stuff into Jake's house as Mike is letting me stay there 4 days a week as he agrees it wouldn't be fair on the dumping ground kids to wake up to crying babies everyday. We ended up calling the babies Connor David and Becca Louise.

(First night at home)

"Jake, it's your turn." I rolled over and hit him.

"I just did it," He rolled over and hugged the duvet. "It's your turn."

Yes before you ask we are back together

"I gave birth to them." I pushed him so he almost fell out of bed.

"Fine." He stood up pushing his hair out of his face and picked them both up ticking them back and forth and once they had stopped crying placed them back into the cots at the bottom of our beds.

That morning, I woke up to the sound of Jake getting ready for school, which I didn't have to do as I was given 4 weeks off. I got up and picked up the twins, kissed Jake, went downstairs and put the twins in the bouncers.

"They didn't cry that much last night." Mary said as she walked into the kitchen and started helping me make their bottles.

"No, they only woke up four times but it was probably just a fluke and they will go back to waking me and Jake up about 6 times tonight." I picked up Becca and gave her the bottle while Mary did the same with Connor.

"I wish you could live her." Mary sighed

"I know at least you got temporary care of me and I have convinced Mike to get me into this thing for teen mums who are in care homes and can't live there with babies." I placed the bottle on the table and placed Becca over my shoulder and started burping her.

"Where is this place?"

"It's about five minutes from the town centre and it is based in a old care home that they have renovated. It looks really nice actually and while I am there they will give me child care, food, nappies, they also have a small school room on site and they will help me look for a flat for when I turn 17/18." Mary shifted in her chair.

"When will you be moving?"

"I don't know yet Mike said he would ring today and even if I do get a place it will take about a month to get the paperwork sorted and another month for me to fully move in to the place." I placed Becca back in her bouncer and took Connor off Mary and started burping him. Just as Mary was going to say something: Jake walked down the stairs grabbed a piece of toast, kissed the twins, kissed me, hugged his mum, grabbed his bag and left for school.

"Does he know that he will probably only be able to see the twins on weekends?" I shook my head.
