We can make it work

Tom To The Rescue!

The past few weeks have been busy, busy, busy! For starters I've been on a diet which is killing me because I basically need to get a six pack for mission impossible, I've been doing a lot of modeling lately which is kind of annoying because Chloe has been away so I've been taking the twins with me and all they want to do is play so my stress levels were through the roof!

It was 9:30am when I was downstairs trying to get the twins ready but all they wanted to do was run round and cry! I had got Holly ready but I was struggling with Harlee who was being a right grumpy guts and was just screaming at the tops of his lungs!

*DING- DONG*

Someone's at the door!

I answered the door with a crying Harlee on my hip.

I opened the door to see my boyfriend of six weeks. "Come in," I mumbled and stepped out the way a little.

Tom chuckled and came inside. "Hey what's wrong with my best friend?" He asked and took Harlee off me.

I ran my fingers through my hair.

"I have no idea," I told him as we went into the livingroom where Holly was running around with a stuffed dog. "I'm trying to get them ready so I can go for a script reading, they know they're going with me and they know it's going to be boring!"

Tom wrapped his free arm around my waist and kissed my head. "You're such a drama queen," He told me. "I'll watch them for you, it'll give me chance to spend more time with them."

I looked at him in disbelief. Tom watching my children...

"Tom no, that's not fair on you," I told him; I have two, toddlers that can be pains in the butt!"

"Jess come on, it'll be for a few hours," He told me. "You can even write me a list of times and things I need to do?"

I sighed; It would be doing me a massive favour...

I groaned. "Fine, okay you can look after them but I'm writing you a list of times when they need feeding and a list of emergency contacts," I told him sternly.

Tom chuckled and kissed my  forehead. "I'm going to make you proud!" He told me as he hugged Harlee and I tightly. "They'll be in safe hands!"

~ (Tom's POV) ~

Jess went upstairs to get ready so I sat in the living room with Holly and Harlee well, Harlee was lying on the sofa crying; I felt bad leaving him but Jess told me to leave him for a while. Holly and I were sitting on the floor having a tea party with plastic princess cups and eating imaginary food.

Holly held a little pink cup towards me. "Oh thank you," I told her as I took the cup and sipped it.

She giggled and picked up her own cup. "Ollys," She told me and pretended to drink it.

I smiled at her, she's so cute. She looked just like her Mum, I just wanted to stay with them 24 hours! Holly and I sat playing tea party as Jess came down stairs holding a list in her hand and looking for things to put in her bag.

"Okay, here's the times for today, I should be back later," Jessica began as she picked up Harlee and kissing him on the head. "Here are the emergency contacts, Ben, Sophie, Collin, Amanda and Katie. If they're hungry there is stuff in the fridge for sandwiches, erm they shouldn't be bored, if they're tired then just take them upstairs and put them in their cots but you need to rock them to sleep first then-"

I shook my head. "Jess, it's okay I can handle it," I told her. I stood up and kissed her soft lips and wrapped my arms around her waist holding her close to me, I pulled away and rested my forehead against hers. "I love you. Now go and be great!"
