Surrogate in Love - Richard Madden

Chapter 14: Scotland and Nearly time

*Iris' P.O.V* 

Rocketman had taken the boys to Scotland for the last few weeks and to say I was getting angry was an understatement. They were due back the week before my due date and to say I was excited to see them as an understatement. I had spent most of the time on the phone with either Taron or Richard but when they weren't available I was being hauled around baby shops by Jess. She was finally getting excited to see the babies that were due any minute. It was unusual for Twin pregnancies to go to full term but it wasn't unheard of and I wasn't holding my breath for them to come any time soon. Today was yet another day of Jess picking me up at midday after my morning writing session and then hauling me to yet another furniture store to pick up some last-minute things for the nursery. I didn't understand why I had to be there but I suppose it was for moral support. We had just finished up in the store when my phone rang, it was Taron.

"Hey T, what's up?" I asked him. it wasn't unheard of for him to call me at this time but I had thought they were filming.

"nothing's up actually I have a little surprise for you accept the video call" I pulled the phone away from my ear and accepted the request and was shocked at what I saw. Richard and Taron were both in the view of the camera but that's not what excited me. they were on an airplane.

"I thought you had another week!" I squealed with excitement as we made our way back to the car.

"We did but we were ahead of schedule so we're back in England tonight Darling" Richards's sexy voice came through the phone.

"well, I cannot wait to see you both, look I gotta go but call me when you land," I said to the boys as we pulled onto the main road and made our way back to Jessica's house.

"they coming home?" she asked as she made a left turn.

"yeah they should be home by tonight OMG I cannot wait" I was so giddy I hadn't seen Richard in person for a whole month and it was killing me. especially with how nervous I was becoming with the babies so close to being born. I hadn't thought about the labor through the last months but now that it was getting closer and closer it was hard to ignore anymore. I was bricking it. Jess pulled into my road and I got out she waited till I made it to the door and then carried on down the 3 feet of road to her own house.

I unlocked the door and was greeted by Blue who had been waiting so patiently for me to return. He had been stuck to my side for the last few weeks. My feet were aching and so was my back so I threw off my shoes and made my way over to the couch to wait for Richard to call. I must have fallen asleep for a couple of hours because the next thing I remember is banging on the door and the room is lit by only the TV that was still playing Brooklyn Nine-Nine reruns. I slowly lifted myself off the sofa and made my way to the door to be greeted by the only face that would make me happy right now. Richard

"Sorry darling I called but you didn't answer I wanted to check you were okay" I could hear the slight panic in his voice.

"I'm so sorry Jess has been pulling me every which way this last week I was knackered. Didn't even eat before I fell asleep" I laughed slightly when I finished realizing how tired I must have been.

"good job I brought these then isn't it" he pulled a bag from behind his back and I instantly recognized it as KFC the smell was incredible. I invited him in and we spent the rest of the night catching up with each other, cuddling, and most importantly enjoying each other's company. 

A/N: Hey guys sorry that this part is kinda short. The next part is going to be a pretty big one so i would say that its going to take me a little while to write it. thank you for understanding as always dont forget to vote <3
