Again this will be written more as a story.....
.....................................................................................................
Laura slowly walked back to the room where Mia was. Mia was still fast asleep, Laura just sat there, in shock, thinking....
"Caleb Smith, it must be my Caleb. He looked so scared, what has he got himself in to? Where is Tony? God whats been happening all these years?....And why has he got a baby?...wheres the babies mum?....oh my god, I'm a grandma."
So many questions Laura needed answering, she had waited and prayed for years for Caleb to come home...She couldnt just stand back and let him walk back out of her life.....
Laura knew what she had to do.....
......................................................................................................
Laura entered the room and looked around, where was Caleb? She looked across the room where the baby was asleep, she slowly walked over, she had to see her grandchild....The baby started crying........
"Shhh baby, its ok, shhh im your grandma, what has happened to you little one?"A voice made Laura jump.
"Who are you? What are you doing? Get the hell away from my baby" It was Caleb.
"Hi Caleb""How do you know my name?""Caleb I dont know how to tell you this....""Just tell me who you are""I'm-I'm your mum Caleb""My mums dead, now get the hell outta here""Caleb, I'm your mum...""Look lady i dont know who the hell you are so get lost ok?""I am not dead, your name is Caleb Thomas Smith, you have a brother called Dylan James Smith, your dad is called Tony Smith he took you from school when you were little, I was pregnant with your little sister, Mia Elizabeth. I married a man called Kyle, he lived with us. You used to call him daddy Ky, you called your brother Dyl! Please Caleb I am your mum sweetie and i have waited for so lng for this day to come....""Mum?""Yes baby, I'm your mum""But Tony told me you died""He was a poorly man Caleb"Caleb broke down in tears, Laura reached down and pulled him up into her arms
"Shh sweetie its ok, i'm here now, mummys here now""Mum....""Shhhh"Laura was crying herself, all those years she had prayed and waited and cried and hoped and here he was, right infront of her, her little boy, her first born child....Oh god how much she had wished for this cuddle.....
.....................................................................................................
Laura held her boy for about 10 minutes, she had missed him so so much.
Just then Mia burst into the room....
"Mummy, i was looking for you"
"Sweetie, i'm so sorry..."
Mia looked up at Caleb...
"Hi i'm Mia, who are you?"
"Hi Mia, my name is Caleb?
"Caleb? I like that name, I have a brother named Caleb but I've never met him, my big brother Dylan tells me about him all the time"
"Mia hunni the nurse will need to see you soon, will you go back to the room and I will be there in a few minutes..."
Laura couldnt face telling Mia just yet.....She needed to tell Kyle and Dylan first....
At that moment the baby started crying....Laura had heard the paramedics mention his name but could not quite remember it...
Caleb handed Laura the baby...
"Mum, meet your grandson, Bailey Smith. Bailey meet your grandma"
"Hi beautiful Bailey"
"Caleb I cant believe I have a grandson..."
......................................................................................................
Just then a nurse entered the room.....
"Caleb you can go now, the doctor will see you in a minute and give you medicine for Bailey, he has a mild chest infection but he will be fine, you need to take him to your GP in 2 days time..."
"Ok, thanks nurse...."
Caleb turned to his mum....
"Well, erm, yeah i..."
"Caleb heres my number, stay in touch please..."
"Mum, I, mum i'm homeless...I mean I have nowhere else to go..."
"Oh Caleb, you do have somewhere to go...Your coming to my house, we can be a proper family again...."
..................................................................................................
Caleb hung around at the hospital until Mia's lip had been sorted out, then they all got a taxi home....
Unbeknown to Caleb, Laura had already rung home, all the kids were in bed, only Kyle was awake...
"Kyle"
"Yeah hunni, hows Mia"
"Shes fine we are waiting for the taxi, Kyle can you get some pyjamas out of the wardrobe in our room"
"Um yea why?"
"I'm bringing Caleb home.."
"Caleb...CALEB....OUR Caleb..."
"The one and only, but please, dont wake the kids up, he looks exhausted and probably just wants to sleep"
"Ok hunni, but whats happened..."
Laura quickly mentioned what had happened at the hospital...
"Ok hunni, I'll get the spare cot out for Bailey shall I"
"Please love, will you put it in Calebs room?"
"Course....
Kyle was so happy, he looked after Caleb all those years ago when Laura was in hospital...He loved that boy so much...he loved all the kids but there was something extra special about Caleb....
....................................................................................................
"Caleb" Kyle ran up to Caleb and threw his arms around him
"Dad" Caleb felt so safe in his dads arms
"Ive missed you son"
"Ive missed you too, your my real dad you know that dont you?, I hate Tony even though he is my biological father i hate him"
"Its ok Caleb, we aint ever gonna let you go"
Laura sat downstairs with Caleb.....
"Do you want to talk"
"Tomorrow mum, I just want to sleep, sorry but im so tired"
"Its ok baby..."
In Calebs room Baileys crib stood in the corner of the room....
Laura sat on the end of Calebs bed watching him sleep....At last her family was complete, noone was gonna come between them again........
