The Spin Off – Part 6
Three weeks later...
"Right...all ready?" Archie asked as he picked up the baby bag, and took one of the car seats with Kyla in. "Yep" Lexie replied picking Ellie up. "Lets get these girls home then" Archie answered smiling. "Arch...is Molly at the house?" Lexie asked her husband as they walked out of the hospital. "Yeah...and...Erm...so is your mother" Archie said laughing. "What?" Lexie laughed "Oh no..."
It had been three weeks since the twins had been born. They had, had to stay in the hospital for three weeks to make sure they were all right. Molly had gone back to Glenbogle after a week to check up on things there. Then she had come back a couple of days ago to help Lexie and Archie settle the twins in. Lexie's mother Pamela had also come down to help with the twins. Lexie could sense that already this would be trouble. Her freak.
Archie opened the door of the car and sat Kyla's car seat in first, and Lexie did the same the other side with Ellie's. "Make sure you do it right...oh watch her Arch" Lexie yelled at Archie, Worrying herself. "Lex...Calm down she's fine" Archie laughed at his wife's worry. "Ok...It's just she's still really tiny" Lexie answered looking at Kyla. Archie smiled at her. "We do have two beautiful little girls" he stated "I feel a bit over powered now with three females in the house! Oh and your mother and my mother...five!" he laughed shutting the door and getting in the front. Lexie joined him. "Sorry you didn't have a son," she whispered quietly. "Oh Lex...I don't care as long as everyone is healthy." He said kissing her.
Back at the house...
Archie opened the door and a load of people shouted, "Welcome home!" Archie and Lexie saw there was Molly, Pamela, Eric, Archie's mate Adam and Justine and Lenny with Shelly and Tom.
"Oh hello" Lexie laughed coming in the door. Everyone started fussing over the twins as soon as they got in. Lexie stood back watching but actually she was in fear, they would hurt them. Archie came and stood behind her putting his arm round her shoulder. "There not going to bite them you know," he whispered gently in her ear. "I know...I just worry" Lexie replied.
Archie got Molly and Pamela to sit down while him and Lexie each handed them one of the twins. Lexie put little Ellie into Molly's arms; Molly took her grand daughter carefully, the smile that lit up on her face as she looked up at Lexie. Archie handed Kyla to Pamela, "Oh thank you Archie" Pamela laughed which made Archie give a false smile. Now Archie was the one worrying. Archie had hoped Lexie hadn't seen the worry on his face, but it was too late, she had. "Mum, be careful!" Lexie yelled. Lexie took Kyla back off her "Oh come on Lex... I had you remember" Pamela laughed. Lexie took Kyla and held her up close and kissed her. "What you do, drop Lex on her head?" Archie joked; Pamela laughed with him but Molly and Lexie looked at him in disgust – how could he joke about something like that? "I'm going to take them up to bed, Molly can you bring Ellie up please?" Lexie asked walking out the door. "Don't you want me to bring her up?" Archie questioned. "No" Lexie replied angrily. Molly got up, gave Archie a look then followed Lexie. Lexie was already in her bedroom when Molly entered. She had laid Kyla in her mosses basket and looked up as Molly entered the room, without saying anything she came across and laid Kyla down in her mosses basket next to Ellie. The two women stood watching the little babies. Lexie and Molly stood heads on each other's shoulders, before Lexie finally said something.
"I would of loved for them to have been born in Scotland, in Glenbogle" Lexie mentioned smiling. "You're lucky they weren't or they might not be here today," Molly whispered quietly. "I know but I want it to feel like there home" Lexie replied sitting down on the bed behind. "Yes it would be wonderful," Molly said sitting with her.
They hadn't realised the baby monitor was on and Archie, who was passing by in the kitchen stopped as he heard them. He was by himself in the kitchen so he thought why not listen? "Molly I wish we were home" "I know dear I wish you were too but there's nothing we can do about it" "That's what me and Arch were fighting about before I went into labour" "You were fighting?" "Yeah...didn't you hear us?" "No...I sleep like a log" (Laughing) "Anyway you had some news to tell me?" "Oh yes...Duncan and Jess are coming up tomorrow to see you" "Oh that's great" "He couldn't wait to see you, you know. He really misses you" "I miss him too, I miss everyone" "And we miss you and Archie very much, and I will the girls as well after I leave here" "You know some times, I used to think of running away back to Glenbogle" "And leave Archie?" "No I kind of hoped he would follow" "Oh..." "But I..."
BEEP BEEP
"Molly...has that been on all the while?" "I don't know dear...what is it?" "The baby monitor...the other ones in the kitchen"
SILENCE
Archie realised that they must be on their way down. So he quickly returned to the room and joined Adam in a conversation. Lexie came down and looked though to the kitchen, there was no one in there, so maybe no one heard. "Hello sweetheart" Archie said kissing Lexie as she came in.
