Chapter 627
"Are you ready for this?" Iain asked, locking up the front door of his flat. Since returning from HEM's, he and Ruby had bumped in to each other, catching up on each other lives, and he'd proposed to her. She'd accepted and they'd returned to Holby, the place they each called home. To Iain's surprise and delight, Ruby had found out she was pregnant, 12 weeks.
Ruby nodded. "I guess. "
"It'll be alright, Ruby. " Iain told her, knowing she was nervous about telling Jan.
The drive to the ED was quiet.
"What can I do for you?" Jan asked, looking at the two paramedics, standing in front of her desk.
Iain and Ruby looked at each other.
Jan looked at her watch. "I haven't got all day, Ruby. "
"I'm pregnant," she whispered.
"Congratlons," she said, pulling Ruby and then Iain in to a hug. Jan seen Ruby as a surrogate daughter.
That afternoon, Ruby had an ultrasound scan.
The midwife, Lucy, smiled at Ruby as she got herself comfortable on the exam bed. "Is this your first pregnancy, Ruby?" she asked.
"Yes," Ruby said.
Lucy squirted gel on Ruby's still flat tummy as she winced, at how cold it was, Lucy placed the probe on her tummy and moved it around, until the baby appeared on -screen.
Ruby gasped, that was her baby.
"Do you want to know the gender?" Lucy asked.
"Yep, " Said Iain, his face light up as he took in the little person he'd help create.
"It looks like your having a boy. Congratlons. "
Iain grinned, he'd always wanted a son, someone he could kick a ball round with, be the dad his own father wasn't.
Iain helped Ruby off the bed as Lucy printed off two ultrasounds for them to keep.
"Cheers" Smiled Iain, his arm around Ruby as they left the room, heading home, ready to find a new place to live as a one bedroomed flat would be too small for s new baby.
Thanks for reading. This will probably be my last update of the year and plus my laptop battery is low.
