The intervening months had been busy ones for Scott, Darjeeling and the others, of course, after Scott dropped the bombshell of them expecting twins of all things, it was understandably so. Scott and Josh had taken a light load for their first term at university, just in case Darjeeling went into labour early, they had even taken alternating days, so they would be available, and thankfully, their professors were understanding about the matter, well, after some of the more excitable ones calmed down that was.
December the Fourth began as any day, though unlike the past few months, neither Scott nor Josh had classes as they had finished their final exams the day before. This turned out to be a blessing as, not too long after Scott felt the bed shift, Darjeeling's hand suddenly, and violently, made contact with his chest, knocking the wind out of him, "Cor, Darling, what…"
Darjeeling cut across him, "It's happening, Scott! God, it hurts!" she shrieked.
This had Scott up in a flash and rushing to put on real clothes, thankfully he had been leaving a set of clothes out at night for this very reason and they were soon rushing to the local hospital, the same one where Miho had given birth and with the same doctor as well. However, unlike Günther, Scott hadn't anxious at all and had been allowed to stay with Darjeeling through the process.
Thankfully for them, it didn't take long for the twins to make their appearance in the world and, kicking and screaming though they were, they soon found their way to Darjeeling and Scott's arms. Scott held their daughter in his arms, "Little Angelica Elizabeth Perkins is going to be a studious one I think if her eyes darting around are anything to go by," he remarked, then he looked to Darjeeling, "How is our son?"
Darjeeling smiled, "William Carlous Perkins is quite tuckered out from screaming his lungs out earlier."
Scott smiled before standing and carrying Angelica over to the door, "I'm going to introduce Angelica to her Godparents, should I bring them back to meet their Godson?"
Darjeeling nodded, "If they are ready, just remember, Assam will probably be mush when you come out there."
Scott smirked but didn't say anything as he walked out. It had been a long road to this point, and he knew that the one before him was a longer one, but with his friends, and possible new brother-in-law, he knew that it would be a conquerable one.
TO BE CONCLUDED!
