Heartbeats
Chapter 1
She's slowly waking, Danny's arm flung loosely over her abdomen as he kisses her neck. Lindsay rolls over and their mouths meet, hands exploring. She hooks a leg over his hip, their bodies meeting and his half hard cock moving below her centre as pj's block direct contact. They continue to make out, waking slowly; he rocks against her, his erection growing. His hands cup her breasts through her top, thumbs flicking the nipples and she hisses in sudden pain; frowning he moves his hands down to her hips. A sudden wave of nausea floods Lindsay and she stills Danny's actions, pressing her hand to his chest. Danny opens his mouth to ask what's wrong but before he can get any words out Lindsay is scrambling out of bed and racing to the bathroom before emptying the contents of her stomach. He rubs her back comfortingly, concerned, all desire drained away.
This was the third morning in a row she'd been feeling sick, Lindsay mentally noted, but the first time she'd thrown up. She got shakily to her feet; Danny steadied her, concern written all over his face.
"Are you all right?" He asks worriedly.
"I think I'm pregnant," Lindsay answers carefully, continuing her sentence before Danny could say anything else, "I've been feeling sick and I'm late."
She looks up at him, hoping he'd have something to say rather than just staring dumbstruck as he was now.
"OK," He murmurs gruffly, "Take a test?"
"I'll buy some after work," Lindsay promises both him and herself.
However, it wasn't going to be quite that easy. By the time Lindsay was due to clock off, hers and Stella's case was not even half solved. A man found strangled and the body dumped in central park. Even Mac could not fail to notice how distracted Lindsay had been all day. Once it was clear that nothing more could be done that night, he sent Lindsay home. As promised, Lindsay stops at a drug store on the way home and quickly buys three pregnancy tests. Danny isn't at her apartment yet, and will let himself in when he arrives. Too nervous to wait for him Lindsay takes all three tests and sets the oven timer to five minutes, when they will be ready. While she is waiting, Danny arrives carrying a pizza box, but all thoughts of food are banished from his head as he sees Lindsay anxiously watching the clock, test instructions in hand. He kisses her hello, not noticing how both their hands shake and jumps in surprise when the timer buzzes. Lindsay hurries to the bathroom, Danny following. She compares the results on the sticks to the instructions before dropping all three in shock.
"Positive. All three were positive. I'm pregnant." Lindsay says in disbelief.
Danny immediately hugs her, happiness and shock flooding his body. They hold each other tightly; Danny grinning, and then kissing her, finally says in an awed voice,
"We're going to be parents."
