Faith's Pov

Today was the first since i started dancing when i was three that all my family will be able to come and watch me dancing. I started dancing when i was three because mam showed me some of her old photo's of her and dad when they used to dance when they were younger. 

Me and my partner are dancing to Rixton me and my broken heart. I'm wearing a yellow blouse and a purple skirt with matching boots . My partner is wearing a blue shirt with suspenders with yellow gloves , trainers and red jeans. i'm so excited and nervous  , i haven't danced properly since mum and grace's accident last year. I stepped out into backstage as i heard the first few notes of me and my broken heart and saw Jake stood on stage , i waited for my cue to go on stage and lost myself in the dancing . I saw  everyone in the audience mam , dad , Hannah, Rachel , grace and the twins even Alicia and Ethan even though she was heavily pregnant . As soon as i felt Jake stop beside me i knew it was time to stop , we walked hand in hand to the front of the stage and took our bows , we then ran down the steps to our families he kissed my cheek and went to his family.

My family were over the moon at my dancing and mam said i was brilliant , Ethan lifted me up onto his shoulders . We all had a group hug well a semi hug because Alicia couldn't hug everyone properly because of her bump and Grace's crutches got in the way for her. I ran backstage and grabbed my bags , i heard a voice behind me i recognised it was my dancing teacher " Well done Faith you did so well i wanted to let you know that you've been offered a scholarship to one of the most prestigious dancing schools in the whole of the uk , only a select few of you from this dance academy have been selected  have a think about it discuss it with your family come on lets get you back out to your family."

Grace's Pov

We've just been to faith's dance recital she and Jake danced to rixton , she was amazing i used to go to dance with her and Rachel but me and Rachel gave it up because we couldn't get the hang of it but Faith stuck it out , Rachel took up gymnastics but after the accident i couldn't do anything because suddenly i was the baby like Emily and Jack learning to do everything again . Mam used to dance with dad when they lived in Newcastle but when mam moved up here after some big mysterious secret we're not allowed to know. Faith just told us she has been offered a scholarship to a dance academy in London but she doesn't want to go because the term starts again just as Alicia's due to give birth so mam said she can start once the babies are born and mam will drive her down and stay in London with her for the week until she's settled .

Connie's POV

I never thought i would be prouder of one of my girls especially Faith as it had been really hard on her these past few months with mine and Jacob's attention being focused onto Grace and then Ethan and Alicia have been preoccupied with the babies birth and Alicia's injuries but the good news is she is going to learn to walk again because the other day she went for a ct scan and it showed that her back injury is healing and she will learn to walk again.Faith has been offered a place at the most prestigious dance school in the U.K but she's not going to start until after the babies are born because she wants to be able to spend some time with her cousins once they are born so I've said i'll take her down to London the week after the babies are born and stay with her till she settles in her new school.I couldn't believe that my baby girl had been offered a place at the most prestigious school in the world. We're going out to celebrate her victory by going to Faith's favourite restaurant one where we've been going for years because of her allergies they know us so they know what we all eat but me and Jacob have a suprise for them , i found out a few weeks ago that i was pregnant again after i collapsed at work i wanted to leave it till i was sure i was going to have a safe pregnancy before i told anyone , my dad and Duffy know and Jacob. Ethan has a suprise for Alicia too he's going to propose again and he's going to arrange for them to get married again after the babies are born. We piled into the minivan with Alicia , Ethan and Grace in the back , Faith , Rachel and Hannah in the middle and then the twins in their car seats in the front with us , we had the car specially adapted after the accident but we will need a new one especially if i have a pregnancy like my last i would like twins again but i don't think our family could cope with twins again especially as the twins are only young . We arrived at the restaurant and booked a table for 9 and they were shocked to see what had happened to Grace , Ethan hung back i guess to speak to them about proposing to Alicia .

Alicia's POV

I have never been prouder of my sisters especially Grace and Faith . Faith has just performed an amazing dance and has been offered a place at a dance school in London . Me and Ethan have decided that once the babies are born we are going to move out of the house because with another set of twins running around the house there's not going to be enough room . Grace has done amazing with her recovery her brain injury is healing  and she s learning to walk again but she has to go in for regular speech and language therapy as her brain injury affected her speech and has to have regular ECG's after her aortic pseudo aneurysm . I am heavily pregnant and after the babies are born i am going to have to undergo months of heavy physio so that i can learn to walk again as a ct scan showed my back wound is healing so i should be able to feel my legs soon enough so i have to have a pin prick test to test for feeling . We have gone out to celebrate at Faith's favourite restaurant as a treat for her amazing victory at the dance recital . Ethan and Mam and Dad are acting shifty as if something is up . Mam has just revealed that she and Dad are expecting another baby , i must tell Ethan the news when he comes back from the toilet i swear that man has a bladder the size of a pea , i have two babies playing football on my bladder and i still don't go to the toilet as much as he does. I suddenly become aware of the fact that everyone is looking at me , i turn my head to see Ethan kneeling down with a black box in his hand when i looked closer i saw that it was a ring box i was shocked we were already married but he has been talking about getting married with the babies as well .

"Alicia Masters will you marry me "

" Of course i will you daft sod now get up off the floor"

"Yes or no then babe"

"Yes i will marry you"
