We spent the whole night at the hospital and thankfully the medicine stopped my contractions. We have been told we can go home but I have to be on bed rest for the next few weeks. Which I wasn't to happy about but I needed to protect my babies.
Chris is wheeling me out to the car, he is really quiet and I don't know why. Me and the babies are safe he should be happy.
We arrive home and dodger comes running, chris stops him and shouts at him, he shouts enough that dodger crouches down.
"Chris!!"
He looks at me, then carries my bag to the bedroom. I follow him "what the hell?"
He doesn't answer me, he storms off to the bathroom. I don't understand why he is so angry. I sit on the bed and wait for him to come out. When he does, he grabs his keys and walks out of the room, doesn't say one word to me.
"Chris!"
He still doesn't answer me "Christopher Robert evans!"
He stops and turns "what's wrong?"
"Nothing. Go to bed, I'll be back in a bit. I need to get you some stuff" before I get a chance to say anything he walks out. I can't help but cry. He blamed me. He blames me for almost loosing our babies.
I grab my phone and ring Scotty, I ask him to come get me.
When he arrives, he sees I've been crying and he wraps me in a hug. On the way to his house. I explain what happened and how chris acted.
"I don't get him Scot, if he blames me he needs to just tell me. It is my fault. I shouldn't have been stood up for so long. I put our babies in danger"
"No Chloe. This is not your fault. These things happen."
When we get back to his house, he lets me go to his spare room to lie down. I'm so worn out, I just need to sleep.

Chris POV

I'm so angry. If I was home more then Chloe wouldn't be putting herself under stress. This is all my fault and I know she is going to blame me too. I've gone to the grocery store to get her some ice cream and things. When I get back, I head to the bedroom but she isn't there. I look in the other rooms and she is no where to be seen.
I ring my mum and she tells me she is at Scot's.
I drive straight over there, I knock on the door and scot opens it.
"Where is she?"
"She is sleeping chris"
"Why is she here?"
"Because you stormed out on her. She thinks you blame her"
"Blame her for what?"
"For putting the babies in danger, she thinks it's her fault and she thinks you blame her"
"Oh god!"
"Why did you storm out chris?"
"I don't blame her scot, I blame myself."
"Why?"
"I should be at home with her, not running around on film sets. I should be taking care of her"
"Chris. She doesn't expect you to do that"
"I know but I should. I nearly lost her before because I was being stupid and now I nearly lost all of them. This is my fault"
"Chris?" I turn around and see Chloe stood there, tears rolling down her cheeks.
I walk over and hug her tightly "I'm so sorry"
"Chris, this isn't your fault"
"But if I...."
"No okay. Stop. This isn't your fault"
She cups my face and pulls me into a kiss, it's slow and passionate. As we pull away, she leans her forehead against mine.
"I love you Christopher Robert Evans and so do these babies. Your going to be an amazing father and I know you will protect us all okay"
I nod and kiss her again. "I just can't loose you, any of you"
"You won't"
"You should be in bed"
"So take me home"
I smile and lift her in my arms bridal style. She giggles
"Thank you scot."
"Anytime sweetie. You take care of yourself and those babies okay"
"I will"
We drive home, once inside i pick her up again and take her to bed. I tuck her in and I go to Leave but she grabs my hand "don't go"
"I'm just going to get your ice cream and pickles okay"
She smiles up at me, I walk into the kitchen and get her stuff. I put some ice cream into a bowl, I go to my coat and grab a small blue box, it's something I've been wanting to give Chloe for a while and now seems perfect. I place the ring on top of the ice cream and carry everything back on a tray. I set the tray on its legs in front of Chloe and sit down next to her. She goes to take a spoonful and gasps "chris?"
I turn to face her, "Chloe I love you more then anything and I know I want to spend the rest of my life with you and our babies. Will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"
I see tears rolling down her cheeks, she is staring at the ring "Chloe?"
She looks up at me and smiles "yes chris"
"Really?"
She smiles and kisses me "really"
I place the ring on her finger and I kiss her passionately. She is mine forever.
