"A baby. Wow! A Baby!"

"You've said it about fifty times, do you believe it yet, honey?" Jessica laughs. She then climbs off of him and sits beside him on the couch.

"I still don't! Let me see your belly!" Danny lifts her shirt.

"It looks the same, I don't have a bump yet."

"It's the most perfect little none bump I've ever seen." Danny smiles and softly rubs his hand on her stomach.

Jessica laughs and places her hand on Danny's back.

"I love you."

"I love you more, my little dancing baby maker."

Jessica smiles and runs her hand through his thick hair. "Our baby better have your hair."

"That's fine with me just as long as they have your eyes, smile.. that cute little nose of yours.... and your big beautiful heart."

"Aww.. I just hope they have rhythm." Jessica pouts. "If not I'll feel so bad for them!" She laughs.

"It'd be a disgrace if your child couldn't dance, huh?" Danny chuckles.

"I'll still love them anyway!" Jessica giggles. "They don't have to dance, but I want them to be able to hold their own on a dance floor."

"Makes sense." Danny nods. "You know, it's been a long time since we've danced together.."

"It has. We've just been so busy."

Danny stands up and walks over to find one of Jessica's records to play.  He then takes her hand and helps her stand.

Jessica smiles and wraps her arms around her boyfriend.

"This is nice.."

"It sure is.  I wanna spend the rest of my life with you, Jess."

"Well good.. cause I kinda wanna spend the rest of my life with you too, Huston."

Danny smiles and kisses her lips.

2 weeks later.

Danny rolled over and reached for Jessica.  When he noticed she wasn't in bed he sat up and rubbed his eyes.

He then heard gagging coming from the bathroom.
Danny stood up and let himself in.

"Babe?  You okay?"

"It started." Jessica cries.

"What?"

"My morning sickness! I was hoping I wouldn't have it but it's here!"

Danny walks over and rubs her back. "Aw baby, I'm sorry.  It's okay, let it all out.."

Jessica takes a few deep breaths before vomiting once again.

"Aw Honey, you've really got the bubbles in your tummy, huh?"

"Danny go, I'm so disgusting!"

"I'm not going anywhere.  I want to make sure you're okay."

Jessica let's out a sob and once again throws up.

"Baby.." Danny kisses her head.

"Is this normal?"

"Yeah.  I remember when my sister was pregnant at graduation and

"Oh right, she puked as soon as you got your diploma."

"Yeah and then she was sick for months!"

"Wow, so not helping!"

"Oh gosh, I'm sorry!  That was so stupid of me."

"It's okay.." Jessica then sits on her bottom.

Danny flushed the toilet then hands Jessica a wet washcloth.

"Thanks.."

"Your little eyes are red.." Danny softly caresses Jessica's cheek.

"I threw up so much.  Like there's nothing in my stomach!  Just a tiny little itty bitty baby, and that's it!"

"Aw." Danny pouts and rubs her stomach.

"We get to see the princess today.  That should cheer you up, right?"

"The princess?" Jessica smiles. "You think it's a girl?"

"I do."

"I think it's a boy." Jessica giggles.

"Maybe it's both!"

"Or not." Jessica scrunches her nose and nods.

Danny laughs.

"Whatever the baby is we'll love them more than anything."

"You got that right, Huston."

**

Jessica laid in the cold hospital room with her shirt lifted.  Her doctor placed a doppler on her lower abdomen and she anxiously awaited the sound of her baby's heartbeat.

Danny held Jessica's hand, and he wore a smile on his face.

Suddenly the two heard a beautiful little heartbeat.

"Listen to that!  Sounds like he or she has rhythm like their mommy!" Danny says.

Jessica laughs. "They're so precious!  What a perfect sound."

Soon they began their ultrasound.  A picture of a teeny tiny little baby appeared on the screen.

"Oh my gosh, Danny look!"

Danny's eyes tear up.
"Wow."

"Do you see that?" Jessica looks up to him as a single tear rolls down her cheeks.

"I do!  That's our baby, Jess."

Jessica smiles and let's out a little giggle through her tears. "That's our baby."

6:30 pm.

Evan called Danny to see how Jessica was doing.

"Jess is incredible, but it sucks right now for her."

"Oh does it?"

"Yep.  She's got baby poisoning."

Evan laughs. "That's a different way to refer to it.  I like it!"

"Thanks." Danny chuckles. "We had our first ultrasound today.  She was great during that..
  Dude, my baby is so cool already!"

"Heh!  That's awesome, man."

"Yeah!  So how's Sarah?"

"Last week was rough on her.. things were looking good, but then we went about ten steps back.  This week she's improving.  Just pray she stays on this path."

Danny sighs. "We for sure are.  Poor Sarah has been through way too much."

Danny and Evan speak for a while longer.

Once they are off the phone Danny goes upstairs where he found Jessica sleeping peacefully.

Danny smiles and then leaves a very soft kiss on her temple.

Danny then walks to the restroom.
As he stands there doing his business he looks around, he even hums a little tune before he's finished.

When Danny went to flush the toilet he gasped.

"Jessica!" He walks into the bedroom.

"Jess!"

Jessica moans and turns over.

"Jessica, why was the baby's picture tapped to the back of the toilet seat?  I just peed on my kid!"

Jessica sits up with a grumpy little face.
"Daniel!  You peed on my baby?!" Jessica takes the ultrasound picture from him.

"It was an accident!  Why was it there?"

"Because I feel so sick, and I want to be reminded of why I'm doing this every time I go in to have a puke party!  When I look at him or her, I feel okay!  I need it there, Danny.  Go pee somewhere else!" Jessica makes a face.

Danny sighs and sits down. "I'm sorry... I did clean the picture.."

Jessica gives him a look.

"It does makes sense, Baby."

"I feel so sick and this helps." Jessica cries softly.

Danny rubs her arm, and just as he's about to pull Jessica in for a hug she cries and shouts, "I hate baby poisoning!"
