Okay so I read the challenge response fic that I did, and I was like hey I'm going to do a sequel because I've got nothing better to do. This is set 3 months after the last fic.
The Beginning is not the end...
Susie stared down at the piece of plastic in her hand, with her eyes closed. She could feel her heart beating faster and faster, her hands were shaking and she could feel herself getting light headed. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes. She took one look at the strip and her eyes lit up. She grabbed the box, shoved the strip into it and rushed out of the bathroom.
"Gees Susie what's the rush?" Joss asked as he nearly pushed her over.
"Sorry Joss. Explain later. Got to find Jonesy." Was all she said before racing out of the station.
She found Jonesy sitting on the couch in the lounge of the house they shared.
"Hey Suse. What's up? Aren't you meant to be at work?"
"I had more important things to do." She sat beside him, concealing the box behind her back. "You know how we were talking a few months back about getting married and starting a family together?" She asked.
"Yeah..." He was slightly confused.
"Well..." She thrust the box into his hands.
"What's this?" He asked looking at the box. "Pregnancy test?" He looked at her and she nodded furiously.
"Open it." She watched as he opened the box and pulled out the strip of plastic.
"It's pink..."
"Uh huh." She grinned from ear to ear.
"Does that mean..."
"Uh huh." She nodded again.
"Suse this is...I'm...Wow...i mean... We're going to have a baby." He smiled.
"I know." She couldn't keep her excitement level down. She lunged at Jonesy and kissed him strong and hard.
"Wow. You should get pregnant more often." He laughed. "Are you sure though?"
"Well I am three weeks late and so I went out and bought the test yesterday. I figured there might be a good chance because I'm never late and...wow we're going to have a baby."
"So now we do have a use for the spare room." Jonesy smiled. "You know what I want now."
"What?"
"For you to be my wife." He smiled at her.
"What?"
"Will you marry me?" He moved off the couch, got down on one knee and held her hand. "Will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"
A tear leaked out of Susie's eye as she fell off the couch into his arms.
"Yes. Yes I will marry you. I have been waiting for that moment for two years now." She smiled. He wiped the tear from her eye and kissed her softly.
"I love you so much." He whispered as she lay in his arms on the floor.
"I love you more." She reached her arms up and ran her hand through his hair. As she did so she glanced at her watch.
"Shit!" She cried and she sat up. "I've got to get back to work. I ran off and didn't tell anyone where I was going." She laughed.
"Well you'd better get back then." He smiled. They helped each other up and he kissed her softly. "This is turning out to be the best day of my life." He admitted.
"Mine too." She smiled. "Do you want to tell the others?"
"We'd better wait until we know for sure." Jonesy replied. "But we can keep it a secret until then. It will make it seem more special."
"Sounds good to me. I guess I'll see you later tonight. We can celebrate."
"Of course." He walked her to the car, kissed her goodbye and stood in the driveway watching her until she was out of sight.
Three days later Susie and Jonesy were in the waiting room of the hospital.
"This is it. We're going to find out for sure."
"And if I am pregnant we can tell the others."
"Exactly." He smiled and kissed her cheek.
"Mr and Mrs Jones?" a nurse read off a clipboard.
"That's us." Susie stood up quickly. Jonesy stood and wrapped her arm around her. Hey followed the nurse into a small room.
"The doctor will be with you shortly." She smiled politely and left them alone.
"So did he say anything when he took the tests?"
"No. Just that there was a large possibility that I am pregnant."
"That's good." She squeezed his hand tightly when she saw the doctor walk in looking through a file.
"Mr and Mrs Jones?"
"Yes." Susie replied. She was so anxious she couldn't sit still.
"Congratulations. You're going to have a baby." He smiled at them. Susie jumped up and down.
"Really?"
"Yes. Is this your first time?"
"Yes." She replied. "Yes it's our first time." She grinned at Jonesy and held his hand tighter.
"Well I'd like for you to come in and see me in three weeks for your first ultrasound. If that's okay?"
"Yes of course." Susie replied.
"Very well then. Thanks for coming in. I'll see you same time in three weeks then."
"Thankyou Doctor."
"Please call me Doc. Everyone else does."
"Thanks Doc." Jonesy smiled at him and the pair left the room.
"This is great. We're going to have a baby Jonesy. Oh I can't wait to tell the others."
"Me either. But don't you think we should tell our parents first?"
"Oh. Yeah, right." She couldn't wipe the grin off her face.
When the pair arrived at work later that afternoon Kelly could tell right away that something was up. She could see the huge grin on both their faces.
"Okay guys what happened? Why are you so happy?"
"Aren't we allowed to be happy?" Susie replied.
"I didn't say that. I can just tell it's something big that's all."
"Should we tell them?" Susie whispered to Jonesy, although everyone else could hear.
"Tell us what?" Joss asked.
"Well..." Jonesy started.
"We're getting married!" Susie cried. She couldn't hold it in any longer. The others opened their mouths for congratulations but Jonesy interrupted.
"But that's not all." He smirked.
"What else is there?'
"We're going to have a baby!" Susie shouted happily.
"Wow." Joss was shocked.
"Congratulations guys." Kelly got up and hugged them both.
"Yes I do believe congratulations are in order." Mark smiled.
"Who are we congratulating?" PJ asked as he, Amy and Tom walked into the main office.
"And what for?" Amy added.
"Susie and I are getting married." Jonesy told them.
"And we're going to have a baby." Susie added.
"Well congratulations." Tom smiled.
"Yeah. Good on ya." PJ's slapped Jonesy on the back and hugged Susie.
"Drinks are on me tonight." Jonesy declared as he wrapped his arm around Susie.
"Well that's great to hear. But we have to remember this is a station and everyone has work to get done." Tom reminded them.
"Oh right." Susie sighed and everyone got back to doing their work.
Well that's it for now. If you want I'll continue and let you know what their parents reactions will be. And there might even eventually be a wedding...lol.
Jess!
