Drabble: Overdue

[bk_forever]

Title: Overdue

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Rhys, Gwen

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 318 – Long Overdue at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Gwen is tired of being pregnant.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: This was the obvious first choice for the new prompt.

“Mornin’, sweetheart,” Rhys greeted Gwen as she waddled into the kitchen. “How’re you today?”

“How am I? I’m two weeks overdue and I feel like a bloody beached whale, that’s how I am!” Gwen groaned, easing herself down into a chair. She was exhausted and it was a waste of time trying to find a comfortable position because there wasn’t one.

“Can’t be much longer now, love,” Rhys reassured her, handing her a cup of tea.

“I’ll tell you right now, Rhys Williams, this baby is going to be an only child. No way am I goin’ through this again!”

The End

I have 1 picture of me pregnant sitting down cross-legged and 8 months along. I looked like Baby Huey on stilts-all hair, ginormous boobs, a belly even more ginormous than a whale should be and legs like sticks! I feel for ya, Gwen! And every time that idiot I married told me I "missed the big one", I told him I have a pair of stilletto heels just waiting for him :D This was AFTER the lie he told about being sterile and after my first doctor told me I couldn't get pregnant....

Ouch! Double whammy! I never had kids, so I avoided all the indignities it involves, though i head about plenty from my sister!

I feel for Gwen, but the baby will be born soon.

Thank you!
