Glasgow Kiss

Chapter 11

Jack and Cherry woke up the next morning; getting ready to meet with the caterers to plan the menu for their wedding. Dolph fell asleep behind the bush but was awaken by the sound of the front door. He sees them holding hands and envy is flowing through his veins. They went to the car, started the engine, and left. Dolph got into his car and followed them. Meanwhile, across town, Drew and Christina woke up to get ready for her doctor's appointment regarding her pregnancy status. They fed the cats, played with them for a bit and they were out the door. Drew was driving with anticipation into finding out how far along his wife is with their baby. Within twenty minutes, they arrived at the doctor's office and started checking in.

"Good morning, miss." Christina started. "I have an ultrasound appointment at 10AM, under the name: McIntyre."

"Good morning, Mrs. McIntyre." The receptionist replied. "Yes, I see you in the system for your 10 o'clock appointment. Please take a seat and we will call you when the doctor is in."

"Thank you very much." Christina answered. Drew and Christina took their seats in the waiting room. Thirty minutes later, the doctor came out and called her name.

"Christina McIntyre!" The doctor said.

"Yes, that's me!" Christina answered.

"Nice to meet you! Come with me!" The doctor replied. Drew and Christina went into the room with the doctor while meeting with the ultrasound technician. Christina laid on the table, lifted her shirt so the technician can apply the cold liquid to see the image of her belly on the screen.

"Mrs. McIntyre, what were the symptoms you had before coming in today?" The technician asked.

"First, I didn't get my period for six weeks, then I started feeling nauseous and was throwing up." Christina replied.

"Okay, we are going to take a look." The technician answered.

Drew was holding Christina's hand while the technician was working with the machine. Couple of minutes later, the technician delivered exciting news.

"Mr. and Mrs. McIntyre, we have determined you are expecting a baby. Here is the developing fetus, and we can hear the heartbeat." The technician stated. "By the looks of it, you are seven weeks along, almost two months pregnant."

"Oh my God, baby!" Christina said, crying. "It's official, we are having a baby!"

"I can't wait, beautiful!" Drew replied, kissing her.

"Congratulations! I will have the doctor come see you now." The technician replied.

"Thank you so much!" Drew and Christina replied.

"You're very welcome." The technician said and left the room.

Christina sat up and Drew hugged her, with tears in his eyes, after confirming the news. A few minutes later, the doctor entered the room.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. McIntyre." The doctor said. "I'm Dr. Jones and I would like to extend my congratulations to both of you."

"Hi, Dr. Jones and thank you very much!" Christina replied. Drew shook the doctor's hand.

"I was looking over your medical records and it states you have an allergic reaction to Penicillin, is that correct?" The doctor asked.

"Yes, I do Doctor. Most of my family members are allergic to it as well." Christina replied.

"Okay, Mrs. McIntyre, starting next month, we will do our monthly checkup and around three- or four-months' time, we will determine if you are having a boy or girl. Sounds good to you?" Dr. Jones stated.
