Finally, He's Mine. - A Sherlolly Fanfic

Chapter Nine

A few weeks had passed since I'd moved in with Sherlock, things were great, actually more than great. We'd been spending more time together and we just seemed to keep getting closer and closer.

"Won't be too long before your first scan now, will it Molly?" John asked over breakfast

"No, not now, about another week, I think Sherlock's more excited than I am if I'm honest."

"Actually, speaking of Sherlock, what's he doing?"

"Oh he's still in bed, he was up all night reading about ultrasounds, wanted to make sure that there wouldn't be any risks or anything, I told him he was worrying over nothing but he insisted. I think I'll go get him up actually."

"Okay, well just be careful, you know what he's like first thing in the morning."

I walked into our room and perched on the bed, I placed my hand on his arm and gently shook it.

"Sherlock," I said softly, "you getting up?"

"Just five more minutes." I loved his morning voice, he sounded so sleepy.

He pulled the covers over his head and groaned into the pillow. I left him to it and went back into the kitchen and carried on drinking my tea. Mrs Hudson came up and greeted us with her usual cheery disposition.

"Good morning you two, where's Sherlock?"

"He's still asleep Mrs Hudson," I said.

"Oh Molly, you look extra lovely today, almost glowing."

"Oh it's a erm new moisturiser I bought."

"Ooh well it's definitely working." I smiled in her direction and carried on drinking my tea, "I was just going to nip down the shops and wondered if any of you wanted anything."

"No, I think we're okay, thanks." John said.

"Okay well I'll see you later."

Sherlock came out of our room with his unruly hair and squinted eyes. He walked over to me and placed his hand on my belly then kissed the top of my head, "good morning baby one," then he moved his hand slightly, "and of course baby number two."

John looked over at us and even though he was smiling I could sense that he was slightly uncomfortable.

"I better be off to work actually," he said looking at his watch, "I'll see you two tonight."

"Yeah see you later John."

After he left Sherlock sat down opposite me.

"You didn't tell him that we've actually got the scan today did you?"

"No."

"Good, and you didn't mention the fact that it's also his birthday today?"

"Well I think he knew anyway, but no I didn't say anything."

"Good, I'll just get dressed and we'll be off."

"Okay."

I smiled up at him and he kissed the top of my head again. I went and sat on the sofa while he got dressed and placed my hands over my stomach and started speaking to the baby, "hey you, me and your daddy are going to get to see you today and we're both very excited about it, I think daddy is more so than me though."

I looked over at the clock wondering what was taking Sherlock so long.

"Hurry up Sherlock! I'm dying to get going."

"I'm coming, calm down!"

He came into the living room and placed his hand out, I put mine in it and stood up grabbed my bag and we left.
