You're Beautiful To Me

The next morning Frank and Anna show up early just as I finish changing Miles' diaper again. I wrap him back up in his blanket and pick him up, cuddling him to my chest as they come into the room, Anna letting out a small excited squeal as she lets go of Franks hand and trys to run across the room to me, almost tripping several times before she makes it to me, flinging herself into my legs, her little hands fisting in the material of my pyjama pants and letting out a small giggle as she babbles out "Da." "Hey cheeky girl" I greet her, smiling down at her as Frank walks over and I hand him Miles, slowly leaning down to pick up Anna, cuddling her against my chest as I press sloppy kisses all over her face and she thrashes around and giggles, her hand coming up to press against my cheek to get me to stop. "Daddy missed you so much last night baby" I tell her and she lets out a small sigh before burying her face in my neck, her head resting on my shoulder and I smile wide as I tighten my arms around her. "She has such a hard life" Frank jokes about her sigh and I chuckle as I say "Yeah it's hard knowing you have to turn one in two weeks." Frank laughs back and the sound startles Miles in his arms, Miles letting out a small whine before crying. "Aww I'm sorry little man" Frank coos as he gently bounces him side to side and I walk over and shift Anna in my arms to free one hand to grab his pacifier. I hand it to Frank and as soon as it's in Miles' mouth he quietens down and his little eyes slip shut.

Frank helps me settle back on the bed with Anna still on my chest, her little hands playing with my shirt and hair as Frank sits in the chair beside the bed cuddling a sleeping Miles to his chest and he says "So when can I take you back home? It's only been one night and the bed was too cold." I let out a soft chuckle before saying "We'll have to ask the doctor." An hour later Anna is running around the room with her teddy bear that Frank brought with him, babbling to it and stopping by every now and then to check in with me and Frank and give Miles a soft kiss on his forehead. The nurse comes in to see if I'm ready for lunch and Anna toddles over to her, babbling away loudly and waking up Miles who starts to cry again and I let out a sigh, knowing this is going to be a regular occurrence when we go home and the nurse offers a friendly smile as she leaves the room again after I tell her to give us a little more time but Miles needs a bottle. Once Frank has calmed Miles down again with the bottle the nurse brings back I ask her when I can go home and she tells me she will get the doctor to come see me. Once she's gone, telling me she'll be back in half an hour with lunch I remember my breakthrough last night and tell Frank excitedly about eating despite not wanting the gross food and Frank smiles wide and stands up, bringing Miles with him and leans over to press his lips to mine. "I'm so proud of you babe" he tells me and I smile wide, feeling my heart flutter at his words. Once the nurse comes back she sits the tray of food infront of me and I sit up in the bed, Frank laying Miles back in his bassinet and picking up Anna who is fixated on the tray of food so I take her into my lap and she helps me eat it, clapping her hands when something is particularly tasty to her and making me giggle. Just as we finish eating the doctor comes in and tells me I am free to go home the next day and I frown at having to spend another night but he assures me it's only to be safe for my health and Frank reaches out and gently squeezes my hand, telling me he would rather be safe and have me stay here another night and that he'll have a surprise for me when I get home.
