"Lachie!" Dean yelled.
"What!"he yelled back.
"You seen Lara?"he asked coming out into the lounge room.
"I'm right here."she replied, coming out of the bathroom and wiping her mouth.
"You alright?"Lachie asked, concerned for his sister-in-law.
"Yeah, fine. Let's go or we will all be late."she said, grabbing her handbag and keys.
6:45-the station house
"Morning." Vince called.
"Morning."they all replied.
They all went to their respected desks and sat down, doing the paperwork form yesterday.
"Hey Lara, you want a coffee?"Jordan asked, from the kitchen.
"Ugh. No thanks." she replied, screwing her face up in disgust. "Michelle, can I talk to you for a minute please?"
"Sure." she replied, ushering Lara into her office.
"I think I'm pregnant."Lara said, sitting down.
"Okay, have you been feeling sick?"she asked.
Lara nodded.
"OK, take a test and let me know and I will make an appointment for you." Michelle said, as Lara walked out.
"You ok Lara?"Heidi her best friend asked.
"Yeah, I will be back soon."she replied, grabbing her keys, wallet and kissed Dean, on the way out the door.
"Hey Dean, is Lara alright?"Chase asked, walking up the stairs.
"I have no clue right now."he replied, facing them.
"Well she is your wife, so shouldn't you know what is wrong with her?"Lachie said.
"She hasn't told me anything yet."he replied, turning back to his computer.
20 mins later
Lara made her way back upstairs and into the bathroom without being questioned. She took the test out of the packet and read the instructions. She waited five minutes and took a look.
'Positive. Shit." she thought, as she emerged from the bathroom and made her way into Michelle's office.
"Negative or positive?"Michelle asked.
"Positive."Lara replied, smiling a little.
"Okay, I have a doctor's appointment booked for you with Doctor O'Malley. I about an hour and a half. Want me to come?" Michelle asked.
"Yes please."Lara said, going out into the open-planned office, and going down the stairs, Michelle following close behind her.
At the hospital
"Lara Gallagher." A nurse called.
Lara and Michelle both stood up and followed the nurse into the examination room.
"Doctor O'Malley will be with you shortly."she said before she left.
"Thank you."Michelle said, as Lara made herself comfortable.
"Lara, good to see you again." said Doctor O'Malley as she walked in the room.
"You too."Lara replied.
"Okay, can you please lift up your shirt so we can do an ultrasound."she said. "Okay the gel is going to be a little cold."she continued, putting the gel on Lara's abdomen.
"Let's see. Ahh yes. Congratulations you have one healthy little baby."the doctor said, wiping of the remaining gel off Lara's abdomen. "You are around 12-14 weeks."
"Thank you." Lara said, hoping off the table and walking out the door behind Michelle, clutching the sonogram.
At the station house
"Dean, can I talk to you for a minute?" Lara asked.
"Sure."he replied, following her into the locker room.
"I have something to show you something."Lara said, pulling the sonogram out of her pocket and handed it to him.
"Are you serious? Are we having a baby?" he exclaimed, while the rest of the team smiled.
"Yes."she replied.
Then he passed out.
"Well that went better than I though."Lara said to no-one in particular.
"Is Dean okay?" they all asked, running down the stairs.
"Yeah he is fine, he just fainted like a schoolgirl."she replied, as they all hugged her in congratulations.
Just then Dean started to stir. He sat up and pulled Lara into his lap.
"Eep."she squealed.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"he said, hugging her.
"Because I only just found out." she replied.
