Jack POV:
I've been at the hospital for 2 hours now, mum and dad have offered to have Summer and Max for a few days as Sophie will be in hospital for a few days to be checked and monitored, especially after the surgery.
I tell mum to stay with Sophie and I'll go home and pack her some stuff. Dad comes with me so he can stay with the children so the boys can go home.
I get home and walk indoors, Dad takes Max and goes into the playroom with Summer. "How is she?" Lauren asks, I did ask Sophie before I left if I could tell them and she said yes as they're all our family. "Sophie's okay kind of, we had twins, it wasn't picked up on the scan at 12 weeks but we had twins." I say, Ben says "had?" I nod and the tears start falling, "we've lost one of them, and they're monitoring the other one. Sophie's got to have surgery to remove the one we've lost." The boys run over to hug me, they're all crying, I let everything go and sob, Lauren joins our hug crying too. "I'm so so sorry Jack. My heart breaks for you all" Dec says and then Mase says "Anything you need at all just let us know." I thank them all and ask them to sit with me while I find the words to say in the group chat as I won't be seeing the boys for a while.

Jack: Lads, I'm writing this
message on here so please pass the
message on to your girls as we
won't be seeing you for a while.
It was revealed to us at the
hospital Sophie was pregnant
with twins but the fall caused
her to lose one. She will need
to undergo surgery and they've
got to monitor the other one
as it's weak. I wanted to tell
you all this face to face like
I did Mase, Dec and Ben but
I don't know when that
would be and you're our
family and deserve to know.
For obvious reasons I won't
be playing again for the
next 2 games. Xx

Hendo: My heart is broken for
you both. Bex and I send you both
all of our love. Always here if you
need anything Xx
Phil: Mate, I don't know what to say.
Becca and I send you all the love
and prayers. Always here bro❤️
Shawsy: Jack mate. My heart breaks
for you both, I'm so sorry for your
loss. Anything you need I'm here and
we all will be when you're
both ready Xx

Myself and Katie send our love
and prayers your way. We're
here if you need anything xx

no idea what to say as nothing
is going to ease the pain for you both.
Sending you all the love and I'm here
for you all no matter what you need❤️

(^All the lads send similar replies)

By 10:30pm I'm back in the hospital with Sophie, mums gone back to mine and they're taking the children to theirs tomorrow. I told Sophie what the lads have said and how they all send their love but all she does is cry while I cuddle her, and I cry with her. By midnight she's finally fell asleep and I fall asleep in the chair next to her making sure I hold her hand.
-The next day-
Sophie had her surgery this morning, she's been out of surgery about 4 and half hours. She's been very quiet today. The doctors and nurses are happier with how the other baby sounds and says they sound stronger, but Sophie will be in at least one more night.
I've told mum and dad the surgery went as well as it could've done. I also told the boys she's out of surgery and it went okay.
-2 days later-
We were allowed back home this morning, Sophies gone straight to bed, she's barely said anything to me since the operation. I've decided I'm going to try to talk to her before the children come home.
I knock on the door, "Soph babe it's me can we talk please" she turns over to face me. I sit next to her and say "Please talk to me Sophie, I want to help you through this, I want us to help each other through this. I love you so much please don't shut me out." She has tears fall then I hear her say "why? Why can't you hate me. It's what I deserve!" This shocks me "you don't deserve me to hate you, you're my wife and I love you in sickness and in health remember" she pulls her hand away and says "I lost your baby, I should've been more careful, I should've gone straight away to get checked, I should've been on time and missed the crowds. It's all my fault you should hate me!" She says and I hold her tight while she sobs "Babe, I don't hate you and it's definitely not your fault, no one could control it happening. You've already given me 2 beautiful children and there's still another one inside of you, I know this is heartbreaking to go through but it wasn't in your control and wasn't your fault I promise." She just cries and says "why aren't you angry?" I move some hair from her wet face. "I am angry babe, I'm angry it happened to us, I'm angry that the person who knocked you over done that but I'm not angry at you, I'm angry at what happened and because it happened to us but I can't stay angry all the time as it's not bringing our baby back. I just now need to make sure you're okay, little one in there is okay and our other 2 little monkeys are okay. You are all my priority now and that's all I care about." She gives me a small smile and hugs me tight, she then kisses me, it's just a gentle kiss but holds so much meaning and reassurance that we're going to be okay...
