I sat upright in bed; my heart pounding. I started breathing heavily, I began to go dizzy, my headpounding. I saw Nolans eyes open; he sat up next to and started paniking.

"What's the matter?" he asked worried. I couldnt answer; I could hardly breath.

"Esme" I whispered before the room blacked out.

I woke up to see a white room around me. I saw Nolan holding Esme. He looked awful, he was wearinga pair of old tracksuit bottoms and his old school's football team jumper, his hair fell across his pale face.

"How long?" I  whispered trying to sit up but I didnt have the energy so I fell back onto the pillow. Nolan ran over, still holding Esme

"three days" he said softly. He kissed my cheek and ran out the room calling a doctor. A doctor and two nurses came running in. One of the nurses took Esme out of Nolans arms telling him that she would take care of her whilist I was being looked after, the other nurse ran to my side. The doctor checked some of the tubes connecting to me and took some tests.

"You have no visble illnesses its just stress. Is there anything that could be stressing you?"  The doctor asked me

"well let me think, my mum forced me to marry my bestfriend, she then forced us to adopt a baby and then when I fell pregnant she said that my children wouldnt be wanted into the family.  Also my little sister is being forced into a dieting routine and crys herself to sleep each night because she thinks no one loves her" I said my  mood swings taking the better of me.

"we think that it would be best if you visit a therapist once a week"

"Wait are my children okay?"

"Yes, your twins are fine nothing has happened and your daughter Esme is being looked after by a nurse whilist we look after you. Your husband is outside and will be allowed shortly. We have also decided that you will not return to work untill your twins are one as it will put more stress onto your shoulders and you will have to rest as much as possible for the next three months so Nolan will take the week of work to see how your doing "

"when can I go home?"

"In about 20 mins"

"that soon?"

I held Esme in my arms as Nolan pushed me out the hospital in a wheel chair.  He took Esme out of my arms and put her in her car seat, he then half picked me up and helped me into the front seat. He put the wheel chair in the back and climbed into the drivers seat and pulled out of the hospital car park. I turned the radio on and started belting out the lyrics to 'thinking out loud'

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love

Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks

And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul can never grow old, it's evergreen
Baby your smile's forever in my mind and memory

I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

But baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are, oh

(Ah la la, la la la, la la la, la la la la)

So baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

Oh maybe we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

I looked over to see Nolan laughing.

"what?" I asked he was watching "Keep your eyes on the road"

"Well your were just released from the hospital after being unconcious for three days and then you are told you are stressed and now your belting out songs as if you havnt got a care in the world" He said focusing on the road

"Well what can I say" I smirked "Im obviously just talented"

"What damaging peoples ears?" He said cocking an eyebrow

"Now that hurt" We pulled into our road, and pulled up in front of our house. Nolan climbed out and grabbed my wheelchair and helped me into it he then grabbed Esme who was fast asleep and placed her on my knee. I reached into the car and grabbed my bag before Nolan pushed me into the house.

"Im going to put Esme upstairs then I will come help you"

"Okay thankyou" I smiled before passing Esme to him

I watched him dissapear up the stairs before I heard my phone ringing. I pulled it out and saw the caller ID

"Hello Courtney" I said to my sister

"Carmel" she whispered

"whats happening?" I asked her concerned

"its happening" she said through tears

"What is?"

"Mum says im not loosing weight quick enough and she  wants to send me to a dieting school in America"

"Where are you i'm comming to get you?"

"I'm ran away and at the park behind your house"

"stay there I said before hanging up.
