MONTH ONE.
Sherlock awoke form his deep slumber to the sent of jasmine and licorice a sent only one person in the whole world had.
He buried his face in the dark brown hair of his beloved, that fell slightly past her shoulder, she shifted her position so she was now lying on her back, he put an arm around her waist, and leaned over to kiss the woman's stomach, he felt the soft touch of someone brushing his hair with their fingers, he looked up and saw that the girls eyes were still shut, he pulled himself up and propped himself on one arm, he pushed the hair out of the way of her closed eyes, behind those lids hid two perfect sapphires with a tint of gray in each one, he kissed each eyelid, the sigh that followed made him switch positions, he was now on top of her kissing her passionately, he let the woman breathe and went back to his side of the bed.
"Good morning Mr. Holmes." Said the woman.
"Good morning Mrs. Holmes." He said and brushed his lips lightly against hers.
"Today's the day huh ?" she mumbled through his lips.
It was a mildly warm March morning, the sun had risen and was perched high in the sky, setting a warm glow across a still drowsy London, people where in their own homes sipping coffee or tea and reading papers or watching the news.
"Today's the day my dearest" he said smiling down at the still half asleep woman.
"What time is it ?" she asked reaching for the glass of water that had been left on the table last night.
"nine twenty one." He stated.
The woman bolted up right, she ran to the closet and grabbed some clothes, she ran into the bathroom and came out with her hair and makeup done while still looking impeccably dressed, he 5"10 height slightly matched the woman's body, she wasn't over weight , but she wasn't one of the skinny models who starved themselves either, she was just the right size, he dark jeans and tee-shirt complimented every curve of her perfectly, she wore her hair in a pony- tail that had been pulled through an other amount of hair and looked very pretty, she wore light blue eye shadow on the tips of her eyes, and mascara which brought out the gray in the blue seas.
She was running out of the room before Sherlock could even comment on her out fit.
"What's wrong Elizabeth?" he called down the stairs.
"Shit Sherlock!" she said, he was at the bottom of the banister now, she looked up for a slight moment and yelled "The appointments at ten o'clock and the hospitals on the other side of town!"
His eyes widened, he ran to the closet and pulled on a pair of trousers and a nice white dress shirt, he ran to the bathroom and began brushing his teeth, as he was doing so he heard Elizabeth slam open the front door but not close it.
Once he was finished he ran down stairs to see Elizabeth sitting in the taxi car she had just hailed, the door was still open, he shut the front door to their home and ran for the taxi, as he jumped in and slammed the door she told the cabbie to head for St. Patrinicks hospital.
She stared out the window and Sherlock gazed at her lovingly, she returned the gaze and they began to laugh, they talked, and talked and laughed and joked.
Once they arrived at their destination the cabbie said they mad ' the perfect couple'. They thanked him and ran into the hospital.
Elizabeth checked in with the nurse at hand, the nurse smiled looking from Sherlock to Elizabeth and then said, "please wait in the room over there"
They walked hand and hand and waited till their name was called by a petite nurse whose bright red hair stuck out in all directions.
"Elizabeth Holmes and Sherlock Holmes? Here for an ultra sound?" she called, the two stood up and walked over to the nurse who had a smile plastered on her face.
"Hello I'm Kendra VandaSure, I'll be you ultra sound operator today, I just need you two to have full co operation with me."
They both nodded and followed her into a full white room that smelled of sterilizers and cleaning products.
The nurse spread some icky blue jelly all over Elizabeth's stomach and attached some wires to a machine that looked like a small t.v.
"Now lets take a look at that baby."
