Sweets sighed and ajusted his suit as he waited at the park Daisy texted him to meet her at. It was a beautiful a park, he had to admit, but he was just a little bit curious as to why Daisy had told him to meet her here. He really had to be at work, helping Booth with the conspiracy, but Daisy said it was important.
"Lance." Daisy's vioce sounded and he turned and smiled at her.
"Daisy!" He grinned, hugging her.
"Lance, you should sit." Daisy said, pulling out of the hug.
"Why? Is something wrong?" Sweets said, his brows scrunching as he sat down on a bench.
"No... I just have something to tell you and I'm not sure what you will think..." Daisy bit her lip and Sweets looked more confused. "You remember a few months ago, when we bumped into eachother... and we ended up at your apartment? Well started to feel sick two months after but I thought it was stress so I worked through it but then there was the weight and my boobs... Lance, I... Lance, I'm pregnant!" She finally blurted, searching his face desperately for a reaction.
"You... you are?" Lance whispered eyes wide.
"I am." She whispered, looking down at the ground, assuming he was going to reject her. Soon, she felt two hands on her shoulders and she looked up to see her sweet Lance's face smiling at her.
"That... that's great."
"Your happy?" She smiled back at him.
"Of course I am... we... we are going to have a baby!" Sweets laughed, hugging her.
"We are having a baby." She smiled.
"This great... unexpected, but great!" He laughed, holding her close.
"Your happy."
"I am."
"So... What are we going to do?" She asked, pulling away from the hug.
"You move in with me." Sweets said, squeezing her shoulders.
"A-are you sure?"
"Yes. Daisy, I'm going to do right by you, it's least I can do." Sweets smiled. "This, this life we made, this can be our new start. We can make it work. This baby is our chance, we can, we will, make it work. You always said it didn't make sense we couldn't make a go of it but I think we can. With a baby on the way we are half way there."
"You really think so?" She smiled up at him.
"I do."
"Will we... get married."
"Of course, it might take me a while to get the ring... but we will, eventually, promise."
"Thank you..." She smiled. "You're wonderful."
"No, you are. You are having a baby. My baby."
"I am."
They stood there and talked for hours, planning ouut thier lives together. They decided that they would tell the team the next day. It didn't happen. The night they planned to call the team together, just before Sweets was about the call the others to tell them to meet him at the bar he got a call of his own. Telling him that Booth was in the hospital.

Brennan walked slowly out of the holding cell and up towards the front of the building. The FBI had taken her into custody so she had to sit in a holding cell intill Angela came and bailed her out.
"Sweetie." Angela said, trotting up to her and giving her a hug.
"Thank you for bailing me out." Brennan said, hugging her back.
"Hey, what are friends for?" Angela said, pulling out of the hug. "You, are staying with me and Jack tonight. We picked up Christine from daycare. Now come on, Sweets is driving you to our house." Angela said, jabbing a thumb behind her at Sweets, who had a sleeping Christine in his arms.
"That's not nessary-"
"I insist." Sweets smiled, his dimples apearing. "Anything you need. And right now, you need a ride. Alot just happened to you, you don't have to do everything by yourself."
"Okay..." Brennan said, walking over towards him. "Here, I'll take Christine."
"No, no. I got her." Sweets assured, holding the child closer.
"Where is Hodgins?" Brennan asked, glancing about.
"He is at home, getting the place ready for you and Christine. Come on, lets get going, sweetie, you look exsausted." Angela said and Brennan nodded, following behind Sweets, who put the sleeping Christine in her carseat before getting into the drivers seat.
"Why are we driving in my car?" Brennan asked, sliding into the passenger side.
"So you have it go to work in, when you're ready of course." Sweets said as he started the car and drove off.
"You seem to have something on your mind." Brennan said, glancing over at her now silent driver. She had assumed he would be trying to give her advice, but he was strangely silent.
"It... It's not important." Sweets said, looking forward.
"I don't mind. I could use a distraction." Brennan shrugged still gazing at him.
"Look... If I tell you, you have to promise not to tell Booth, he has a lot going on and I want to tell him in person." Sweets sighed, glancing at her briefly before looking back at the road.
"I promise."
"It's just... Daisy, she's pregnant. I'm the father." Sweets said, trying his best not to smile, given that his friend was almost killed and was going to jail he figured that smiling wouldn't be appropriate.
"Oh my gosh, and- you are happy about it?"
"Daisy and I are overjoyed." Sweets nodded.
"That is wonderful news, Sweets. Though, I can't say I'm surprised, I thought Daisy was showing signs of pregnancy but I figured it wasn't any of my business."
"Yeah well... yeah. She's pregnant."
"I assume she will be moving in with you? You seem like the kind that wants to, as Booth says, 'do right by' her. Are you going to get married?" She tilted her head at him.
"When I save up enough for a decent ring, yeah. I want it to perfect for her, she deserves that much concidering I knocked her up, you know?" Sweets shrugged a shoulder.
"Yes, that's very alpha male of you." Brennan said.
"Thank you?" Sweets said, but it was really a question.
"You're welcome." Brennan said before sucking on her lip. "Sweets...?"
"Yeah?"
"What do I tell Christine? About all this?" She whispered, looking back at her daughter.
"Well... That's a toughy. Just... tell her that daddy is going away for a while. At least for a few days before you tell her he's in jail. Just take it easy so you don't scare her." Sweets sighed.
"I'll have to move us... how do explain that?"
"Just.. tell her the truth. The old one was destroyed."
"Yes... That sounds best... though I will have to go back to the house and get our things."
"I'll help."
"You don't have to."
"I know, but I want to."
"Thank you... you are a great friend, Sweets." She smiled at him.
"Come on." Sweets mumbled, looking embarrassed.
"You are, Booth would be proud."
"Awh, thanks... I'm just doing what he would be for me."
"It's very noble of you." Brennan nodded.
"I guess."
Silence filled the car again before Sweets spoke again.
"You know everything is going to turn out fine right? You are going to clear Booth's name. If anyone can do it, it's you. You're going to be fine." He looked over at her as he stopped at a red light.
"But will Booth be?"
"I... don't know. But I think he will."
"Why?"
"Because... he has you. You love him, and you'll be there for him when he gets out of prison."
"Thank you... I guess I feel a little better." She smiled and looked down at her feet.
"It's what I'm here for." Sweets smiled and took off as the light turned green.
