Abigail's POV

I couldn't help but smile as I watched my too little babies all strapped into their car seats ready to go home. Ryan was on his way to pick us up...we were finally going home.

I had been a long 9 weeks in hospital, but the support we got from friends and family had been amazing, especially since Nick thought it would be a fantastic idea to declare a publicity war on me and Ryan.

I hadn't been able to do much from inside the hospital but now I was going home, I had already made plans for TV appearances and radio interviews later in the week.

Freya was now back at school and had been skyping me regularly, Nick hadn't said much more about custody and Freya didn't hate me like Nick said she did. I finally felt ready to take on the world again.

"Hey beautiful are you ready to go home?" Ryan beamed as he walked into our room "Hey guys Daddy's here" a nurse and doctor also came in with Ryan.

"You have quite the gathering outside" the nurse smiled.

"Oh don't worry Leroy is downstairs with Shane and Evan" They were our two new security guards. Ryan had hired them to work with Leroy, mainly to keep photographers and Journalists out of the hospital while me and the twins were staying here.

After the initial shock of trying to fasten two baby car seats in a car whilst being completely surrounded by paparazzi, Ryan and I finally arrived home. I laughed as we walked into the kitchen "Jeez who's died?"I joked as I saw all the beautiful flowers surrounding me.

"They just kept coming while you were sick" Ryan smiled as he put the twins car seats on the floor just next to the breakfast bar.

"Maybe we could donate some of them?" Ryan nodded at my suggestion. To my surprise he wrapped both arms around my torso amd kissed me hard "Ryan" I giggled as he picked me up off the ground.

"Man I've been wanting to do that for weeks" He smirked as he put my feet back on my ground "Amongst other things"

"Ryan Tedder" I gasp "You are a bad Man"

"Yep" he nodded before moving in on me again "I've got feeling someone might need a cold shower" I laugh as Ryan pulls away again.

"Yeah okay, I'm sorry it's just I haven't been able to do this in so long. I almost forgotten what it felt like, just to touch you like this" how can I argue with that, the urge to kiss him again takes over me and suddenly I find myself being laid across the couch arm with Ryan falling clumsily on top of me. I pull his shirt up over his head and run my hand down his chest, he grabs the back of my neck tangling my hair between his fingers and kisses me hard again it's almost like he is desperate for my oxygen.

Suddenly the moment is interrupted by a gentle whine coming from the baby car seats "Oh what come on guys, give your dad a break" Ryan quickly stands and pulls me to my feet. We both head over to them and Lillia has her eyes open and is screwing up her face a little.

"Maybe she's hungry" I reached down and unclip her car seat, lifting her gently into my arms.

"What again?" Ryan laughed curiously.

"Yes honey again, they are babies after all" I joke as Ryan watches attentively, I pull a pre-made bottle out of the change bag and give it to her "Did you want to?" I ask when I realise Ryan is still watching me.

"Yeah" he nods eagerly and quickly comes to take her off me, seeing him holding her and feeding her makes my heart melt. I guess you never realise how much you love your man, until you see him loving your children "I'm going to take a shower quickly" I kiss Ryan's head and then make my way into the bathroom, but as soon as I leave the room I hear Jacob stirring "Or maybe not" I turn and walk back inside the room. I can see Ryan smiling at me.

"Hello handsome boy" I say in some sort of babyish voice "Are you hungry too?" As I pull him out of his car seat he suddenly settles "Hmmm someone is testing Mommy" I walk over to the bassinet and put Jacob down in it, he seems happier to be spread out. I watch Ryan as he gently rubs and taps Lillia's back, she made a loud burping sound which made us both laugh "She's definately your daughter"

Ryan came over and laid Lillia beside her brother "I still can't believe we did that" he looped his arm around my waist as we watched them both sleeping for a few moments.

Ryan took his phone out of his pocket and took and photo "What are you doing?"

"Sending my Mom a picture of her grandkids" Ryan smiled.

I still felt bad that Ryan's parents hadn't been able to see the twins as much as they would have liked "Hey why don't we arrange to spend some time with your Mom and Dad next weekend?" I suggest, Ryan seems keen "I'll call them later"

I watch curiously as Ryan checks his phone "Shit" he exhale, he looks pissed off.

"You okay baby?" I walk over to him and read over his shoulder "What's that?"

"It's my twitter notifications" Ryan frowned as he scrolled down "Nick has mention us both in a tweet, basically saying that me and you had an affair before you split up with Nick"

"Are you fucking kidding me?" My blood boils, what a complete dick. Ry what are you doing?" I watched as Ryan typed a comment, he hit send before I even had chance to argue.

'You can't blame me for noticing her when you didn't, no more bullshit you were divorced!!!' these were the words that were now out their for the whole world to see. I wasn't sure whether to kiss Ryan for defending us, or kill him for reacting. I guess either way I had to respect the fact he had the right to an opinion. On certain occasions I can't expect him now to speak up...This was one of them.

Thing is Ryan's family are against adultery or infidelity, so thinking their son had stolen another man's wife wouldn't have sat well for them "You should call your Mom and explain, before anyone sees this" I sigh and Ryan nods.
