Chapter 1:
Mary-Claire has just started her shift after a rough night of feeling sick and dizzy. Mary-Claire sat at the nursing station feeling sorry for herself so she decided to put her head down on the desk for at least 10 minute while it wasn't busy. 10 minutes later Mary-Claire was asleep on the desk when Harry notices her asleep and goes up besides her and slams his files down on the table making Mary-Claire jump, Mary-Claire sat up and said to Harry "What was that for?" Harry laughs and says "Come on Mc you do know you are meant to sleep at home that's what your bed is for" Mary-Claire looks up at Harry and says "I feel really ill today and last night I couldn't sleep. I was sick about 5 times last night" Harry the says to Mary-Claire that she should go home and let the bug pass.
Later on Mary-Claire started to feel really sick and she didn't want to come home because Serena would probably suspend her. Mary-Claire was treating a patient with Raf and Colette when she suddenly Mary-Claire started to feel really dizzy again and held onto the rail of the patients bed Colette looked over at Mary-Claire who was swaying backwards and forwards and said "Nurse Cater are you feeling okay?" Mary-Claire looked up at Colette and nodded and tries to carry on reading the patients notes.
After she had finished treating her patient she made her way back over to the nurses' station but she didn't make it she collapsed to the floor with a thud catching Colette's and Serena's attention so they came running over worried for her, Colette said "Mary-Claire can you hear me ? Serena we need help, oh Mary-Claire you should of told us if you wasn't feeling well."
Serena shouted over to Harry and Raf who were looking though someone's CT scans and they dropped everything and came over to Mary-Claire who was still on the floor unconscious Harry seemed really worried about Mary-Claire lying there on the floor. Serena said to Colette "We have a bed free over there I will go and get someone to help us get her onto the bed" Harry looked over and Mary-Claire and said "Ms Campbell I will get her onto the bed if you like", So Harry went over to Mary-Claire and scooped her off the floor and into the bridle carry and took her over to the bed where she started to gain consciousness, Harry placed Mary-Claire down on the bed and said "hey you, you gave us quite a scare are you okay?" Mary-Claire tried to sit herself up but found out that she couldn't when she was met by an excruciating stabbing pain in her stomach which made her cry out in pain.
Mary-Claire continued to cry out in pain and Colette and Harry worked around her trying to find out what could of caused her pain, Colette asked Mary-Claire a series of questions about herself and then the one question that shocked Mary-Claire that one question that didn't play on her mind was "Mary-Claire have you had unprotected Sex recently ?" Mary-Claire didn't know what to say she looked at Harry and then looked at Colette and started to blush and quickly nodded and said "Yes I have but only about 8 weeks ago and I haven't yet had my..." Mary-Claire broke down in tears and Colette suddenly realised what could of caused her to faint and feel sick and dizzy.
Colette asked Mary-Claire if she could feel her stomach just in case her appendicitis had ruptured, Colette rolled up Mary-Claire's top to relive a very flat stomach, Colette started to press her hands down on her stomach the suddenly Mary-Claire said "I going to be sick!" Harry quickly grabbed a kidney dish for the side and handed it to Mary-Claire who was instantly sick into the dish, Harry rubbed he back and told her she would be fine as he could see the fear building up on her face.
Soon Harry and Colette have finished examining Mary-Claire and go away to the nurses' station to discuss Mary-Claire, Colette was looking though Mary-Claire's notes and then turns to Harry and says "I am worried for Mary-Claire, Dr Tressler she is showing all signs that indicates pregnancy we need her to get in touch with her sexual partner, Once we know that she is defiantly pregnant. Dr Tressler could you get me a portable ultra sound please and I will go and talk to Mary-Claire."
So Harry goes off in search of a not in use portable ultra sound while Colette goes and speaks to Mary-Claire. Colette arrives by Mary-Claire's bed and says to her "Right Mary-Claire we do have a possibility on why you are so unwell we just need to check something first. Dr Tressler has gone and got me a portable ultra sound" Harry came in with the Ultra sound and said "are you ready MC ?" Mary-Claire nodded wondering why he asked her such an weird question like 'are you ready?'.
Mary-Claire rolled up her top and placed the tissue around her the top of her trousers before Colette placed the jell onto her stomach. Mary-Claire questioned Colette on why she was scanning her abdomen, she also said "I hope I haven't got a ruptured appendix again." Colette places the probe on Mary-Claire's stomach with the screen facing away from Mary-Claire but towards Harry and Colette, Colette said "Oh, I have picked something up, Dr Tressler if you wouldn't mind I need to have a word with Ms Campbell. Dr Tressler snap out of it" Harry was standing there looking at the screen in complete shock before looking at Mary-Claire and smiling at her.
Colette came back with Ms Campbell said to Mary-Claire "Well Nurse Carter, I don't know what to say..." Serena was cut off by a very nervous Mary-Claire who said "Tell me Ms Campbell what is it?" Serena turned to Colette and smiled so Colette told her "Okay Mary-Claire we will tell you know because it seems official, We had looked at your Ultra sound and we can tell you know that there is no problems just that you are about 2 months pregnant. Congratulations" Mary-Claire didn't know what to do she was terrified and Colette wiped the Gel off Mary-Claire stomach and said "Do you want to contact anyone, Maybe the baby's father?" Mary-Claire smiled and said "No need he is right here anyway" Mary-Claire looked across at Harry who was treating another patient the other side of the room, Colette didn't know what to say to that all she said was "Have you told him? or shall I invite him into my office and I will tell him lightly?" Mary-Claire nodded and told her to go and tell Harry as she couldn't bear to know whether he wanted to know the baby or not.
Colette wondered over to Harry and said "Dr Tressler could I have a word?" Harry nodded and walked over to Colette's office.
Colette jesters to Harry to sit down and he does so. Colette says to Harry "Right you know how we are treating Mary-Claire at the minute we have diagnosed her with severe morning sickness, she is pregnant Harry!" Harry sits there staring straight at Colette looking like her had just seen the ghost of Penny Valentine "Harry... Harry... Dr Tressler are you okay?" Colette shouts to make sure he is listening Harry then says "Does she know who the Dad is then?" Colette nods with a slight smile on her face before breaking the news "Harry, Let's just say Mary-Claire thinks you are the father, come to think of it she said you were defiantly the father. are you okay with this?"
Harry rubs his hands over his face before saying "Well of course she would be" Harry looks over at Colette who looks like she doesn't want to hear the full story and then Colette speaks up "Harry so this baby was planned?" Harry smiles "Of course this baby wasn't planned it was a bit of fun when I was on call the once. I will go talk to Mary-Claire know."
Harry left Colette's office heading towards were Mary-Claire was lying and came over next to her sitting on her bed and said while stroking her hair "Hey MC how you getting on, I heard what has happened..." Mary-Claire interrupted Harry "If you want to know NO I am not getting rid of it! That would be curl killing an inanest life, I know it was only some fun but look where it has got us" Harry looked at Mary-Claire with confusion and said "You want to keep it? That's great news, I will be here for you whatever it takes MC. And I totally thought you was on the pill."
Later on that day Harry has gone back to work and Mary-Claire was sitting in the bed in AAU board out of her mind, She had been on Facebook once but there was no gossip as everyone on her Facebook worked.
After Harry's shift he had come to collect Mary-Claire as she had been discharged, Harry took Mary-Claire to his car to give her a lift back home, once Mary-Claire was in the car she turned to Harry and said with her hand on her stomach rubbing it lightly "Harry ?Do you promise you will help me when this little one comes along?" Harry smiles and turned the engine on in his car and said "Mary-Claire Carter I am not leaving you or this one, You are giving me my first child (Unexpected)I am so happy for you" Mary-Claire smiled at Harry and said "Harry I am worried about the baby I am only 25 and already pregnant you are only 29, I wanted to be something like 32 when I have children but I guess that isn't going to happen anymore, But my Mum and Dad were in their early forties when they had me." Harry placed his hand on Mary-Claire's flat stomach before smiling at her and driving off towards Mary-Claire's house.
