Here's another Jilliam one shot story! I am really loving this season of Murdoch Mysteries! Enjoy!
….
(Station House)
"Please, please let me explain" Father Jennings says with a panic voice.
"McNabb take Father Jennings to the interview room" William says
"Sir" McNabb says takes the Father's arms and leads him to the interview room.
William goes to his office takes off his hat and hangs it on the coat rack. He walks over to his desk and slams his hands against the surface with frustration. Suddenly there's a knock at the door.
(Knock, knock)
William turns around and sees its Julia caressing her pregnant belly.
"Julia?"
"William. Do you have a few moments?"
"For you, of course. What is it?... (whispers) Is there something wrong with the baby?"
Julia approached him with a smile "no William the baby is moving."
William sat at the edge of his desk with a smile.
"Really Julia? Is it sort of early? You're only 10 weeks."
"No William, this is a very good sign. Want to feel?"
"Of course, uh…where" he said while wondering where to put his hand."
"Here William" she said as she grabbed his hand and placed it on her belly.
"I don't feel anything Julia?" William said with a disappointed look.
"Just give it a sec…"
"OH" they both said as they felt the baby moving.
"Our baby is saying hello to its mommy and daddy William."
William smiled "indeed." He leans to the belly and whispers "mommy and daddy love you so much" then kisses the belly. He places his hand over her belly again continuing feeling the baby.
"William did I miss over hear you say to McNabb to take Father Jennings to the interview room?"
"Oh you heard that" William said looking up at her.
"Yes I was just coming into the station when I heard. So why did you arrest him?"
William explains what happened while still feeling the baby move.
THE END…..
*people might ask how I know how far along Julia is...I am just guessing. Also you can feel baby movement at 10 weeks, it feels like fluttering or a tickle.
