John sighs as he feels kisses on his face, peppering them all over his face. John was so tired. He really didn't feel like getting up. He blinks his eyes open, Sherlock hovering over him." It is time to wake up John. It's your appointment today." John sighs and shakes his head." It's too early!"

It was a few days after Sherlock came back. They scheduled the appointment the next morning. John looks at the clock and sees it was 8. His appointment was 10:30. John groans softly, feeling the nausea creaping up on him. Sherlock chuckles and pecks his nose." I made some tea.. Well boiled water. I put toast in as well." Sherlock explained while kissing his nose.

John giggles and rolls his eyes." Ugh.. Sherlock.." He felt the nausea creaping up fast. Sherlock seemed to realize so he moved. John bolted up and ran to the bathroom. He kneels at the toilet and threw up. He groans and tried to keep the bile down. He was NOT a fan of morning sickness. He heard foot steps coming toward the bathroom. He threw up again. He pants heavily and feels a wet cloth on the back of his neck. He felt Sherlock rubbing his back gently as John pukes.

John soon finished and sighs. Sherlock wipes John's face then mouth. He picks John up gently and carries him to the kitchen, tossing the wash cloth in the sink. He places John in his chair and walks to the kitchen. Sherlock finishes the tea to his best ability and butters the toast. He brings John the tea and toast. John takes them both, looking pale." From the blue container..?"

Sherlock smiles and nodded." No caffeine. Very good for the baby." John took a sip, making sure it wasn't too hot. He looks up at Sherlock, an eyebrow raised in question.
"Research." Sherlock confirmed. John chuckles at him, touched. Sherlock smiles a little, kissing John's head gently before moving to his stomach, wrapping his arms around his waist. He pressed kisses onto John's stomach. It seemed Sherlock was saying good morning to the baby.

John smiles at Sherlock and takes another sip of his tea. He yawns a little as Sherlock kisses his stomach. He giggles a little, seeing how cute and sweet Sherlock looks. John looks at the time and sets the eaten toast and finished tea to the side. John runs his fingers through his hair." Sherl... It's time we get dressed." Noting John was only in some pj bottoms. Sherlock was perfectly dressed. Sherlock chuckles again his stomach." Okay okay.." He mumbles, standing up.

He helps John up and John goes and gets dressed as Sherlock grabs their coats. John quickly change into his jumper and some pants. He comes out after brushing his teeth. He yawns a little, walking to Sherlock. He puts on his coat and walks out the door.
They catch a cab and held hands as the cabbie took them to the doctor's. John yawns a little as they walk into the doctor's office. They sign in and sit down, waiting to be seen.

John leans his head against Sherlock's shoulder." Mmm... Still too early.." He mumbles, closing his eyes. John felt Sherlock chuckle a bit and he smiles. He yawns again, covering his mouth. "John Watson."

They are called by a nurse with blond hair, green eyes and tall. They are told to wait after she took John's weight, which he had gained a few stones, and his temperature and height. He plays with his hands a bit, waiting for the doctor. John looks up to see Sherlock watching him, well: deducing. John sticks his tongue out at Sherlock and Sherlock chuckles.

John jumps slightly when Dr. Jason enters." Congrats! You're pregnant!" She teases him. John huffs a laugh." Really? I'm really shocked." His doctor just giggled." Okay, lay down and we'll check on baby."

John nodded and lays down. He watched as Dr. Jason got the machine ready. She lifts up his shirt, pulling it up a little but not too high, a few inches above the belly button.
"This is going to be cold..." She warned him as she took out the jelly. John nodded before the jelly was squirted on his stomach." Bloody Hell! That's freezing!" Dr. Jason chuckles," I told you!"

John noticed how Sherlock moved closer, hand resting next to John's. John took his hand gently, intertwining their fingers together. John saw the small upward turn of the sides of Sherlock's mouth. John looked back at the doctor and she started with the wand.
He watched as the Doctor moved it along his stomach, looking for the baby. The room was filled with the sound of a loud, fast heart beat. And it took John's breath away.
The doctor looked interested." Mm..." She hummed a little. She pointed to the screen." That peanut blob thing right there, is the baby. Annnnddd... The one next to it is another... You're having twins.. Congrats! But anyway.. The babies look well. They're developing very nicely. You just need to remember to take your vitamins."

John bit his lip and smiled, looking at the screen. He couldn't believe that they were having twins. Seeing the tiny things in his stomach that was making him sick and achy and needing to pee all the time made him smile. John remembered Sherlock in the room and looks up. Sherlock was completely still, hands in their mind place style, staring at the screen. John watched as Sherlock's eyes looked at the screen like a dead body. John smiles, thinking he might be trying to find out the gender.

"Would you like some pictures?" Dr. Jason asked them, turning off the screen and gently wiping the jelly from John's stomach.

"Yes." Sherlock said as soon as the question left Dr. Jason's lips.
She nodded before walking to get them.

John looks back at Sherlock to see him smiling down at John." It's real."
John chuckles at Sherlock." I would hope. I wasn't throwing up for my health."
Sherlock smiles and placed a hand on John's stomach and gently rubbed it. Sherlock bent down and kissed John's lips. John smiled into the kiss before kissing him back. He loved Sherlock's kisses. They pulled away with smiles on their faces. John sat up and stood. He stretched a little before sitting back down. Sherlock moved the chair to sit next to John.

Sherlock took John's hand and pressed a kiss to his wrist gently.
Soon Dr. Jason came in and handed them the pictures. They soon left and walked to their shop they ate at, where they first ate together the second day they knew each other, looking for the murderer. They both sat down at their usual table.
John felt like the special; spaghetti. He asked to take out some of the spices,
Sherlock ordered the same. John hoped he was going to eat.

(Okay.. I took the suggestion from pikachuciara and made it twins.. Let me know what you think!!)
