The Spin Off – Part 4
At the hospital a month later...
"Oh its cold" Lexie laughed, as the nurse put the cold jelly substance on her tummy. Justine stood beside Lexie. "I'm sorry Archie couldn't come" Justine added holding Lexie's hand. "Yeah well he always seems to be at work these days" Lexie replied feeling a bit disappointed, "Thanks for coming with me" Lexie then said realising, "It's just I was a bit worried, I've never done this before and well you have" Lexie admitted. "Right well, I'll just put this on here, and oh there you go" the nurse explained to Lexie. Lexie leaned her head to see the screen. "Oh" she smiled, in actually fact she couldn't tell what was what, but she didn't want to seem stupid. "Oh...wait hang on a minute" The nurse suddenly said moving closer to the screen to look. "What? What is it? Is there something wrong?" Lexie yelled panicking. "Well...if I am correct...you seem to be expecting..." the nurse commented. "Expecting? What?" Justine asked confused and trying to look at the screen herself. "Twins" the nurse announced giving Lexie a big smile. "Twins?" Lexie asked surprised. "Oh twins that's wonderful" Justine said holding Lexie's hand. "It's a lot of work, that's what it is," Lexie commented laughing, but she was happy, she couldn't wait to tell Archie.
Later that night...
"Hello Glenbogle house" Duncan's voice picked up. Lexie was so excited she couldn't wait to tell them. "Dunc, I'm having twins" Lexie let out cheerfully. "Sorry, who is this?" Duncan asked laughing at the other end. "Oh you Bampot, it's me Lexie!" Lexie shouted at him. "Oh yes...Lexie...I think I remember you" Duncan joked. "Oh shut up, I haven't been gone that long" Lexie laughed, when she suddenly realised she had been it was almost 5 months. "Lex...that's great" Duncan then added going back to the news. "I know, I can't wait to tell Archie" Lexie commented, "What? You haven't told him yet?" Duncan asked surprised. "He doesn't like me calling him at work" Lexie replied sadly. In the background, Lexie heard the hustle and bustle of the house. "Ewan...no Ewan give it back" Lexie heard Jess's voice go past. Duncan suddenly joined in "Over here Ewan!" Duncan shouted laughing. "Oh don't you start" Jess' voice became clearer as she stood by Duncan. Then she heard Molly come into hearing distance. "Oh Duncan...is that Lexie?" Molly asked. "Yeah Molly it is...here you go" Duncan answered handing over the phone to Molly. "Lexie dear...how are you?" Molly asked happily. "Molly I'm fine thanks, I have some wonderful news for you" Lexie added excited again. "More exciting then expecting a grand child?" Molly asked confused. "How about two?" Lexie asked, waiting for Molly to get it. "What? Is Lizzie having another?" Molly replied confused, at the thought that Lizzie had not rang her. "No Molly, I'm expecting twins!" Lexie announced laughing. "Twins! Oh how wonderful" Molly cried.
Even later that night...
Lexie sat in the living room of the house...it was now 9o'clock. Archie should have been home an hour ago. Where was he? Suddenly the door opened. Lexie got up and looked down the narrow hallway into the darkness. Archie's laughter came from outside and another man's as well. "Oh hi sweetheart" Archie said looking down the hallway to his wife. Lexie was peering round the doorway. He saw she was looking behind him at the other man. "Oh Lexie...this is Adam...Adam this is my wife Lexie" Archie spoke introducing them both. "Nice to meet ya" the man commented in his brood London accent. "Hello, its nice to meet you too, are you a friend of Archie's from work?" Lexie asked. "Your Scottish" the man laughed. Lexie looked at him weirdly. "You never mentioned it, Archie" the man continued to talk to Archie. "I'm Scottish too," Archie added. "Oh yes, and you live in a big castle in the highlands" Adam laughed. "We do, well we did" Lexie added sharply. Adam looked at her. Lexie didn't like the way he looked at her but didn't say anything.
In bed that night...
"Did he really have to stay that long?" Lexie asked Archie as she pulled the covers back and got in bed. "Yeah he's quite a talker" Archie laughed. "Hmm...hey Arch...I never got a chance to tell you" Lexie mentioned sitting up, remembering the news. "Oh right...what's that then?" Archie asked struggling with his trousers. "We're expecting twins," Lexie announced. "What?" Archie yelled then trapping his legs in his trousers, as he fell to the ground. "Arch?" Lexie called moving over to the other side of the bed. "Twins...that's great" he smiled through the pain. Lexie laughed at him.
