"I guess if Harry does have to stay in then maybe when he is released we should have him in our room for the first couple of nights." Carla said as she thought that she might sleep better if Harry was close by. "You want me to take the kids to my work today?" Peter asked as Carla sighed.
"I guess. You know when we get back from Ireland we should seriously think of getting them to a nursery. I mean even one day a week would help their development and well your Dad and Deirdre can't always take them." Carla said as she kissed Harry's forehead. "They don't mind. Dad said he'll have them on a Monday and Friday morning. You are going to take Wednesday's and Friday afternoons off and I can have a Tuesday off. I guess we could put them in Nursery on a Thursday." Peter said. Carla smiled and nodded. "Yeah that sounds a good idea. They'll like nursery I think." Carla said as Peter nodded.
"We'll have to look at a few places. There's Bee's Knees near to Queen's Avenue and then St Matthew's nursery and Pre-school. They start from 6 months." Peter said as Carla nodded. "You been checking them out." She said with a grin. "Might have, only want the best for these two little ones." Peter said.

'You know I really should go and sort out renting my flat too.. after James.. I didn't want to go back there, but I reckon I can now. Plus we could do with the extra money' Carla said. 'No rush though is there' Peter said. 'No, but I want to, no point it sitting there when we could be getting the extra cash, and it will rent well too.. top price flat that is' Carla said. 'True, and you did say you wanted to get a few things for here didn't you' Peter said. 'Yeah, I miss my shower' Carla said making Pter laugh.

"Hey we could get one of those put in, would be good in the ensuite." Peter said as Carla smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Yeah, well I'll see, you know it might be best letting it out to an agency and they deal with all the issues then. I mean we don't want calls at 11 at night because the waters gone off or the heatings not working properly." Carla said as Peter nodded. "True, good thinking." Peter said as he smiled at Carla. "You going to be okay taking the twins to the bookies?" Carla asked as Peter nodded.
"Course. I'll take some bottles and their changing things." Peter said as Carla nodded. "Will you make sure that they have some little cardis cause it is a bit cool out. I'll try see if I can be done for lunch and then I can have them this afternoon. I want Harry to be properly rested and everything for tomorrow." Carla said as Peter nodded.
"Don't worry love, you going to get Simon up?" Peter asked as Carla nodded.

'Oh yeah' Carla said rubbing her head. 'Sleepy head' Peter chuckled as Carla went upstairs to wake Simon. 'Huh' Simon said as Carla gently shook his shoulder. 'Time to get up Si' Carla said. 'Hey don't pull that face' Carla smiled as Simon reluctantly sat up. 'Owww' Simon grumbled. 'Come on, I'll make you breakfast' Carla said heading back downstairs to get Simon some cereal and juice. Esme was sitting in Peter's arms patting his arm happily.

"You won't be able to eat your breakfast with that one on your lap." Carla said as she loved how loving a father Peter was to Simon, Harry and Esme. "Oh she's no problem are you princess!" Peter said softly as Esme wriggled her little legs and let out a little squeal. "Bless Simon, he looked tired as anything. Oh I need to send him in with something for the harvest festival. Oh damn I forgot." Carla said as she started scouring the cupboards and taking some tins and packets out. "You reckon a couple of tins of soup, some tinned tuna and a packet of crackers will be okay?" Carla said as Peter nodded.
"Yeah it'll be fine." He said shaking his head at her fretting. "I'll drop Simon off at school if you're taking the twins. Gives you a bit of extra time. You going to be good for Daddy?" Carla said as Harry babbled from his bouncer.

'He's turning into a chatter box' Peter smiled. 'I wonder what his first word will be' Carla smiled. 'Mm, me too' Peter said. 'What was my first word Dad?' Simon asked coming downstairs. 'I don't know Si.. Mum I think' Peter said wishing he had been there. 'I want Harry's first word to be Simon' Simon grinned. 'Might be too big for him love' Peter said. 'Si then' Simon frowned. 'Your breakfast is on the table Si' Carla said sitting beside Peter.

"I hope one of them says Dad first." Peter said as Carla smiled softly knowing he missed the fact that he hadn't been there for many of Simon's firsts. "Oh I have a feeling that Esme's first word will be Daddy." She said as she sipped some of her coffee. "Simon I put some food in a bag for you to take to school for Harvest Festival." She said as Simon nodded.
"Thanks Mum." He said as he dug into his cheerios.
"I'll drive you to school this morning hmm, looks like it's going to throw it down." Carla said as she glanced at the dark grey sky. "Okay Mum."

Esme's little hand came out to reach for the coffee mug Peter was drinking from. 'Hey Miss that's not for you' Peter said as she tapped her hands on the edge of the table. 'They are becoming so aware' Carla said as she watched her daughter. 'She wants cheerios like me' Simon said as Esme bashed her hands about. 'Not long until she'll be wolfing them down I bet' Peter said. 'Esme poked her little tongue out and made a little face.

"Right Si, go get your teeth brushed and your coat and then we'll be ready to go." Carla said as she grabbed her handbag and jacket. "Okay Mum." Simon said as he headed upstairs. Carla smiled as Harry reached out his little arms to her. "Oh you want a hug sweetheart, come on then quickly before Mummy has to go to work." Carla said as she lifted him up and kissed his cheek smiling at his big wide eyes which seemed to be verging more on Peter's brown eyes than her own green ones. "You Mummy's brave little boy." Carla said as she tapped his button nose adoringly.

"Mum I'm ready now." Simon said as he tugged on his school coat and grabbed his schoolbag. "Okay love, bye bye petal you be good for Daddy." Carla said as she kissed Esme softly as she snuggled against Peter. "Call me if you need to love." She said as Peter nodded.
"I'll be fine Carla don't worry." Peter said as he smiled at her. He chuckled as she closed the door behind her. "What's you Mummy like hey you two, right fusspot isn't she."

'Are you looking forward to this Harvest Festival Si?' Carla asked. 'A bit' Simon said. 'Hey, what's up' Carla said. 'Just I want to stay with Harry' Simon said getting into the car. "Hey, Harry will be fine love, he would want you to have fun, don't worry about him' Carla said although she understood Simon's fears. 'Okay, I can come and visit him tomorrow can't I' Simon said. 'I'm sure you can love' Carla said starting the car.

'Oh trust you to get hungry right after your Mum leaves eh' Peter said as Esme's face fell into a little frown and she began to whimper. 'Come on then' Peter said holding her in the crook of his arm as he looked for a bottle.

"Right love, you want me to carry the bag with the tins?" Carla asked as Simon shook his head. "I can manage it." He said determinedly as Carla smiled knowing that Simon liked to be independent. "Okay love. What do you think you're doing today then?" She asked as they walked the shot distance from where she had pulled up the car to the plaayground. "We're doing art this afternoon. I like that." Simon said as Carla nodded. "Oh that'll be fun." She said as she smiled seeing Ken with Amy. "Hiya, I'd have picked her up if I'd thought about it." She said as Ken shook his head.
"Oh it's okay, got me out from Tracy moaning about Steve for a bit." He chuckled.

'Ah right' Carla said imagine what it would like to be with Tracy every morning. 'What did you bring to the Harvest Festival?' Simon asked Amy. 'Pasta' Amy said. 'Pasta' Simon said scrunching up his face. 'Well what did you bring?' Amy said. Simon opened the bag and showed Amy. 'Tuna, tuna's weird' Amy said. 'Tuna isn't weird' SImon said. Ken and Carla looked at each other as the kids bickered. 'Go on you two, your going to be late if you keep chatting' Carla said. 'Okay, bye Mum, bye Grandad' Simon said. 'By Carla' Amy smiled as she liked the pretty woman who had become Simon's mum.

'Come on Ken, I'll give you a lift back' Carla said as they turned to leave. 'Oh, thank you' Ken said.

"So you and Peter want us to take Esme tomorrow, I suppose you'll be up at the hospital all day with Harry." Ken said as Carla headed back to the street. Carla nodded.
"If that's alright. I think you can bring Simon up to the hospital around sixish as the operation's at 12 so Harry should be on the recovery ward by then. But we will ring yo9u let you know what goes on." Carla said as she sighed.
"Harry's a fighter love, you watch." Ken said comfortingly. Carla nodded as she pulled up in front of the factory. "There we go." She said with a smile as she parked up.
"Well if you want we'll pick up Simon and Esme at 7:30 tomorrow, we'll get Si his breakfast and things." Ken said as Carla nodded.
"Thanks Ken."

'Your welcome Carla, you know what, I'm really glad you and Peter haver found each other. I know I wasn't so sure at first, but, well, you've given us two beautiful grandchildren, and well, I really like you' Ken said. Carla smiled slightly. 'That means a lot, thanks' Carla said locking up the car.

'Right, back to work for me!' Carla said as Ken walked in the other direction. 'Oh she's back again' Sean said.

"Aww where are the little ones this morning?" Julie asked as Carla smiled.
"Oh they're spending the day with Daddy, though if I get through this I might finish up for lunchtime. I want them to be rested as Harry's got his operation tomorrow." Carla said as Hayley nodded, they'd heard this and knew it must be scary for Peter and Carla what with Harry been so tiny. "Can I get you a coffee?" She asked as Carla nodded.
"That'll be lovely thanks." She said as she slid open the office door and smiled seeing Michelle.

"Hello you two." Leanne said as Peter pushed the buggy into the bookies.
"I hope you don't mind but Carla wanted to try get loads done this morning since she won't be in tomorrow." Peter said as Leanne nodded.
"Oh as if you mind."

'It means I get so spoil them for the day' Leanne said grinning at the twins who were awake and alert. 'I reckon Harry would love to have a cuddle from his Aunty Lea' Peter said reaching to pick up his son. 'Look at those cheeks' Leanne gushed as Harry babbled being put into her arms. 'I reckon we will get a few additional customers with these two today' Leanne said. 'Hopefully' Peter grinned looking proudly at Harry who really was very cute.

A customer came into the shop. 'Peter Barlow! How are you mate, long time no see' the man said. 'Ted! Ah how are you?' Peter said. 'I'm good me! Ah I see you and.. Leanne was it? You've gone and had yourselfs kids!' the man said.

Leanne looked down as she held Harry against her. "Erm actually me and Leanne we're not together anymore. These are my little ones. We're still mates though." Peter said as the man sighed looking a little embarrassed by his error. "Oh sorry, jesus what happened though, you had a good thing going with Leanne here. And I'm sure as hell you couldn't find a lovelier woman well other than my Lizzie." He said as Peter smiled.
"We just got to a point. Anyway these are my two, Harry and Esme." Peter said as he smiled proudly at his baby twins.

"Chelle have you seen that order form from Winston's?" Carla asked as she leafed through a number of papers on her desk. "Nope, sorry. Hey stop fretting it'll only be in here." Michelle said as she knew that Carla was a little stressed out what with Harry's operation tomorrow.

'Ah well aren't they bonny' the man said smiling at then. 'What about you then Leanne? What's happening with you? And kids yet?' the man asked, rather to forwardly. 'Not yet, I have a partner, Nick' Leanne said. 'Nick.. Nick, the name rings a bell' Ted said. Leanne nodded, shifting Harry in her arms so she could serve him. 'Anyway Ted, want to put a bet one someone?' Peter asked. 'Sure as hell I do' Ted said.

'Ergh, for god sake, I really need to see to this filing system' Carla said. 'Works fine for me' Michelle said. 'Well, your not the boss so' Carla said, winking at Michelle. 'No, thank god' Michelle laughed.

"Definately a chip off the old block that little man. So who's the Mum then?" Ted asked as he looked at the betting slip trying to see which horses he wanted to put a bet on. "Oh she's called Carla. Works over the road. She's beautiful, we're engaged." Peter said proudly as Ted chuckled. "Oh get you. Right family man. Right then I'll have five quid on Grey Lady and a fiver on Grogan Berry." Ted said as he decided on the best odds.
"Okay. I'll get that sorted for you." Peter said as he processed the slip and put the tenner in the till. He sighed as he heard some whimpering from where he had put the buggy. "Oh dear, sounds like little miss wants a cuddle." He said as Ted smiled.
"How old are they?"
"Oh coming up 10 weeks, but they were premature so technially they're only 2 weeks old hence them been so tiny." Peter said as he went to pass Ted his betting slip and then go to pick up Esme.

'Oh bet she looks like her mum' Ted said as Petter cooed over his daughter. 'She does, right little miss this one' Peter said as Esme batted her head against his chest. 'Hows your lad then?' Ted asked. 'Simon, he's fine, doing well at school' Peter said. 'I bet, a wise little one he was' Ted said. 'So are you around for long?' Peter asked. 'Yeah, I decided to come down for a few days, check this place out again, been a while' Ted said. 'Ah right, well you'll remember Danny Baldwin then?' Peter said. 'Yeah, think I do' Ted said. 'Well, Carla owns his factory now' Peter said.

"Oh right, so what are you her bit of rough?" Ted said as Peter rolled his eyes.
"No, she's lovely. Anyway what are you doing back up here?" Peter said as his friend had moved down south. "Oh company needed to send someone back up North and well made sense I came back what with my family all up here." He said as Peter nodded.

"Aha here we go." Carla said triamphantly holding up the order form albeit there was a coffee cup mark on the edge of it. "I tell you what how about I ask Hayley if she minds sorting out the filing system for us? They're way in front of the order as it is." Michelle said as Carla nodded.
"I suppose that would work. You are going to be okay tomorrow aren't you. I cancelled any meetings though you might get a call from Daniel Adams as he still thinks I'm trying to play hardball to get a lower price for the material." Carla said as Michelle chuckled.
"Aren't you?"

'Maybe' Carla said smirking. 'Well, I'm sure I'll be fine, I might try and pop up and see Harry in the evening, depending on how many visitors he has' Michelle said. 'He's going to get a complex' Carla said. 'Nah, bless him, I know your worried, but he'll be fine' Michelle said. 'Yeah, I'm sure he will be' Carla said sipping her coffee. 'They're tough little things' Michelle said. 'Yeah, hang on, they aren't working out there' Carla said tutting and getting up.

"Oi everyone what seems to be the problem?" She said as she wandered onto the factory floor and looked to see the staff smile at her. "Sorry we have something for you though." Hayley said as she passed Carla a envelope. Carla opened it and saw a Thinking Of You card. "We know it can't be easy when you have Harry having surgery tomorrow. It's just to let you know we're thinking of you, oh and here." Hayley said as she produced a bouquet of pretty white and blue roses." Carla sighed softly, they were soometimes too good to her and she did appreciate the thought. "Thank you, all of you. That's really kind, here Sean why don't you go and get us all a cake hmm?" She said as she headed to get her purse from the office.

'Poor thing, must be awful worrying about your baby' Hayley said. 'I'd be worried' Fiz said. 'Here you go love' Carla said handing Sean a £20 note. 'Thanks Miss C' Sean said gratefully. 'Now you lot, back to work until he gets back. and honestly thank you' Carla said going back into the office.

"Oh they're nice." Michelle said knowingly as Hayley had already asked her to sign the card earlier. She knew that Carla dearly appreciated the fact that the workforce cared about her and her family. Even though she didn't always let on. "The staff got them, kind of a thinking of you. It's so nice that isn't it." Carla said as Michelle smiled.
"Well Hayley is going to be Esme's godmother and Sean Harry's godfather so I think they feel more than just staff and well Julie was almost in tears when Hayley was saying about the operation. They care about you Car."
"Yeah."

"That better sweetheart, you going to come with Daddy and change the odd's outside hmm." Peter said as he gently rubbed Esme's back in a soothing motion.
