About This Book

Daniel and Oliver are about to have their first baby. With their best friend, Priya, acting as surrogate, they've turned the study into a nursery and the bottles are sterilised. All that's missing is the bundle of joy they've been pining for. But when Daniel's chaotic mother gatecrashes the baby shower with a few home truths, the cracks in Daniel and Oliver's relationship begin to show. Are they as ready for this as they think they are? And more importantly, is Priya?

Act One
The living room of DANIEL and OLIVER’s two bedroom, privately owned flat in a council estate in Shadwell, London. Large windows give onto the London skyline.
DANIEL, OLIVER and PRIYA.
PRIYA is heavily pregnant, due any day.
PRIYA is watching DANIEL and OLI play ‘Pin the sperm on the egg’. DANIEL and OLIVER are at opposite ends of the room with the poster of the egg on the wall. They are wearing blindfolds. They spin around.
PRIYA
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
Go.
DANIEL and OLIVER take confused and dizzy steps towards where they think the poster is.
Cold.
Colder.
Daniel, you’re a bit warmer.
OLI
What about me?
PRIYA
Cold babes.
OLI
Now?
PRIYA
Bit warmer.
DANIEL
And me?
PRIYA
Hotter.
DANIEL and OLIVER find themselves close and grope each other, part to help orientate themselves, part to enjoy copping a feel.
DANIEL
Hello.
PRIYA
Now that’s hot.
OLI
This is what he does, Priya, you’ve got to watch him. He’ll be just about to lose then he’ll get all frisky.
DANIEL
Never lost a game of Monopoly yet.
OLI
We’ve never finished a game of Monopoly yet.
PRIYA
I’ll have given birth by the time you’ve found it.
DANIEL
Hot or cold now?
PRIYA
Hot Hot Hot.
OLI
And me?
PRIYA
Hotter, hotter hotter.
DANIEL
Younger doesn’t mean hot...
