Chapter One

"I certainly hope you're not falling asleep on me," Tim said with a smirk, tugging gently on Calleigh's hand.

"Not my fault," Calleigh mumbled, forcing herself to open her eyes. She tried for a few moments more to concentrate on the movie they were watching. It wasn't that she was tired; she was just so warm, so comfortable nestled in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder. Soon she found her eyelids growing heavy again.

"Not your fault; yeah right," Tim snickered. "It's a little early to be blaming that on the baby, Cal."

Calleigh shifted slightly; trying to find a better position. She smiled; Tim was teasing her about falling asleep, yet he wouldn't let go of her enough to let her change position so she could stay awake. "I wasn't blaming that on the baby, Tim," she replied sassily, "I was blaming it on you."

He raised an eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

Calleigh grinned. "You heard me." She tilted her head enough so she was able to look up in to his eyes. "Don't you remember? You kept me up for half the night last night," she mentioned cheekily.

Tim smirked. "Not my fault; seeing as how I distinctly remember you begging me not to stop."

"I did not beg," Calleigh retorted matter-of-factly, her cheeks tinting nonetheless.

"Well, you were certainly enjoying it then, so you can't use that as an excuse."

Calleigh rolled her eyes, smiling. "Fine. You just picked a boring movie. It's putting me to sleep."

"Baby, you always fall asleep, no matter what the movie is," Tim remarked amusedly.

Calleigh smiled, snuggling closer to him. "I'm comfortable. When I'm comfortable, I get sleepy." She shrugged. "And I figure I'd better enjoy it before I get fat and uncomfortable. You know, before your son or daughter starts kicking me all over the place," she joked.

Tim snickered, pressing a kiss to her hair. "Oh please, she's your daughter too." He brushed his hand over her still flat abdomen, resting it there underneath her shirt. "And you know you can't wait until she starts kicking."

Calleigh chuckled. "You know me too well," she commented.

"Well, I'd like to think so," he replied smugly.

Calleigh sighed, placing her hand over his on her abdomen. "What makes you think it's a girl?" she asked softly. She grinned when he didn't answer. "I see. You want a girl," she said with a giggle.

Tim chuckled. "Well, the idea of completely spoiling my little girl does appeal to me."

Calleigh laughed. "God, this is gonna be awful. It won't matter if I ever tell her no for anything; she'll just run to you and you'll give it to her right away."

"Well, not everything. Just most things."

Calleigh raised an eyebrow. "Okay, tell me one thing you won't let her have," she demanded.

Tim gave her a deadly serious look. "She comes to me and asks if she can go out one night with that silly boy in her English class; that's gonna get a definite no for an answer."

"Tim!" she exclaimed, swatting his arm playfully.

"What? I'm serious!"

"You are not!" Calleigh laughed.

"Fine. Try me then, in sixteen years. See if I'm not serious." He kept his serious face for a moment longer before he couldn't hold back a grin. "Fine," he relented, rolling his eyes. She can date when she's seventeen. After I meet the boy and lay down some ground rules."

Calleigh laughed. After a moment she sighed again, laying her head back on his shoulder. "I'm so glad you're as excited about this as I am."

"God, Calleigh, I'm ecstatic. I can't believe you ever doubted that."

Calleigh shrugged. "It wasn't so much that I doubted it; I was just scared." She moved her hand, lacing her fingers with his.

Again he pressed a kiss to her hair; knowing it took a lot for her to admit that. "I admit; I was kind of freaked out at first. But now there's nothing I'd rather have. And now I can't wait to tell everybody."

Calleigh pulled back, looking into his eyes. "About us?"

"Yeah." He trailed his eyes down to her stomach, atop which their hands were still linked. "After all, it's gonna get pretty hard to hide it soon."

Calleigh smiled. "You're right on that," she murmured. "When do you want to tell everybody? End of the week, maybe?"

Tim pursed his lips. "You know, I was thinking more like tomorrow." He smirked. "Knowing Eric and Valera, they've probably figured most of it out already. It certainly didn't take long for Alexx to figure it out. Although, that was your fault."

Calleigh laughed. "Oh come on, Tim, you don't do the best job of being discreet about it either," she remarked, ducking her head to hide her tinting cheeks.

"And once again, you enjoy every minute of it," he replied cheekily.

"That I do," Calleigh replied with a giggle. She leaned in close to him, capturing his lips with hers in a deep kiss. Pulling away, she rested her forehead against his. "I love you," she whispered.

Tim grinned. "I love you too," he replied, reconnecting their lips. Calleigh moaned lightly, opening her mouth to him as he pulled her over onto his lap so she was straddling him. Her hands found their way to the back of his neck, scratching lightly at his skin while Tim's hands played with the hem of her shirt, just barely skimming the skin underneath. He broke the kiss, opting instead to trail his lips over her jawline, down her neck and finally to her collarbone. Calleigh breathed deeply; letting it out with a happy sigh. She moaned again as his hands slid further beneath her shirt, and, missing the contact, she cupped his face and brought her lips back to his.

He broke the kiss again, ignoring her protest. "You're beautiful," he whispered, staring at her. Calleigh grinned, trailing a finger over his face.

Abruptly Calleigh's ears tuned into the silence behind her, and she glanced back before replacing her attention completely on Tim. "The movie's over," she murmured, her grin widening.

Tim snickered. "That's too bad," he said, gripping the bottom of her shirt and pulling it up over her head. "I guess we'll just have to find some other way to entertain ourselves for the rest of the afternoon," he added suggestively.

Calleigh pretended to not know what he was talking about. "Well, I guess we could always put in another movie."

"Nuh-uh. I don't want you falling asleep."

Calleigh giggled. "And I suppose you know of a way to keep me awake?" she teased.

Tim gave her a wicked grin, tracing his fingers down her sides, watching her eyes flutter closed as she sighed in pleasure. He kissed her shoulder, moving his way back upward to her lips. "Oh, I've got a fairly good idea…"
