Prompt: my idea is Denley fic where Henley is pregnant.

Month One.

Henley paced the stuffy apartment, the pregnancy test in her hands. Her fingers stroked the ends of the small white stick, trying to supply the truth to her mind; if only it were easy to tell yourself that the little pink plus sign meant positive.. that you were pregnant with J. Daniel Atlas' baby.

Tears had gently stroked her cheeks as she creaked along the rickety floorboards, occasionally glancing up at the door to see when the three other Horsemen would be back, bearing news on their latest tail, so she could tell them she was bearing a... a thing, inside her.

"What's up, red?" Merritt McKinney asked, the door banging behind him as he and Jack Wilder entered the apartment, bearing food and other miscellaneous items.

"Where's Danny?" she asks, tucking the small white stick behind her back.

Jack raises an eyebrow, "Why?"

But Merritt seems to catch on, expertly lunging at her and whisking her loot away. He whirls around Jack, and they puzzle over the stick, before slowly looking up at her with wide, surprised eyes.

"So, you finally did it?" Merritt inquires as a small twitch tugs Jack's lip into a smirk. Henley growls and snatches the stick back, trying not to give them the benefit of the doubt.

They'd been an item for a few months now, though it'd felt like forever since they first met. Together, they only strengthened the bond between the Four Horsemen.

It was at that moment that Danny banged through the door, dropping his own loot off on a grungy ottoman they'd smuggled off the streets, and turned to the remainder of his team. He raised an eyebrow at the men, who smiled sardonically at him, before making a weak excuse that they left something in the car.

The minute the door shut, Danny turned to his girlfriend, his eyebrows disappearing under his scruffy chocolate hair, "What was that about?"

Henley bit her lip, looking anywhere but him as she slowly drew the pregnancy test from behind her and offered it to him. She stared at the ceiling as he made place of what it said, watching a peel of paint dismember itself of it's paint, and flutter to the floor, glinting in the sunlight pouring through the windows, as it floated to the floorboards.

"You're pregnant?" his voice is blank, eyes boring into her abdomen, as she continued to avoid eye contact, willing herself not to cry.

Oh my gosh, what if he doesn't love me anymore? What if we break up and they exclude me from the group, and I can't get into the Eye? What if I end up like what I was befor-

Warm hands slide around her waist, and she finds her face buried in Danny's muscular shoulder, breathing in his intoxicating scent.

"You're pregnant!" Now, his voice was super, genuinely cheerful, as he lifted her thin frame and spun her around.

She hears Merritt and Jack return, laughing and punching each other friendly on the shoulders, as the other half of the Four Horsemen congratulated them.

Henley buried her face into Danny, her arm wrapping around his waist, as his tucked around the shoulder, pulling her flush against him.

All she can picture is raising a baby with this beautiful man, and for the first time since she received the results, a smile blooms across her face.
