"I'm ---"

"Pregnant." They said in unison.

Karen nodded and began twisting her wedding rings around her finger.

"Does Stan—"

"Not yet. You don't tell your husband that he's going to be a daddy again over the phone."

Stan was away on a business trip. He had been gone for over a month and wasn't expected to return home for another week or so. Will could see that Karen missed him desperately, and was trying to put up a brave face. She buried her head in her hands and started to cry, curling into a ball and lying against the pillows.

"Karen, what's the matter?" Will rubbed her back, soothingly.

"He's not going to want this baby, Will. I know him. He didn't want anymore children. And now, because of one night that we couldn't remember to use protection…….he's going to hate me."

Will looked appalled at Karen's sudden emotional outburst. Gathering her petite frame into his arms, he rocked her back and forth until her tears subsided. "Shh. Karen, he's not going to hate you. He loves you so much, and he's going to be so thrilled that the two of you have created this little life together."

She looked up at him and sniffled. "But what if he's not?"

"If he's not….then he's the stupidest man in the world."

Karen forced a smile. "Thanks, honey."

Will looked around, noticing for the first time that Jack was nowhere to be found. Jack had moved into Karen's mansion a few weeks before, due to the INS investigating his 'marriage' to Rosario. Will couldn't remember a time in the recent past that Jack was not attached to Karen's hip.

Karen noticed him looking around and knew precisely what he was looking for, or rather, who.

"He's not here. Something about Barney's having a sale…..I don't know." She wiped her tear-stained face and sat up straight, staring at Will. "Honey, didn't you say you have a ton of meetings today? You should get back to work."

"I cancelled them. You can't be left alone when you're sick….not that being pregnant is a sickness. I just meant that –"

Karen raised her hand in an effort to stop him. "I understand, honey."

He sighed. "Good. So, I'm yours for the day. What can I get for you?"

"You're seriously not going to leave me home alone?" Karen asked, sounding annoyed but secretly thrilled. She loved when Will was around instead of Jack. He gave her the same attention that her husband always did….when he was around.

"Nope."

Karen settled back into the pillows, shifting around to get comfortable. "Well, the only thing I can think of right now is the book I was reading in the library. Could you get it for me?"

"Sure."

Will walked out of the spacious master bedroom and down the hallway to the library. Kneeling down beside Karen's chair, he picked up the book Karen was reading. "What To Expect When You're Expecting?" Will flipped through the book, seeing several pages were earmarked at the top by Karen. He scanned those pages, seeing what Karen had been reading. Morning Sickness, Fitness During Pregnancy, Sex During Pregnancy, and Abnormal Symptoms To Watch For.

He walked back into Karen's bedroom, sitting down next to her on the bed and handing her the book.

"Thanks, honey." She said, squeezing his hand and flipping the book open to the page she had left off on and continued reading. She sat there reading for a few minutes before she looked up and noticed Will was still sitting on the bed, staring at her. "What?"

Will shook his head. "Nothing."

"Wilma…."

He looked back over at her and smiled. "You're glowing."

A soft smile grew across her face and she looked down into her lap, blushing. "Shut up." She replied teasingly, nudging his shoulder playfully as he sat down next to her and read over her shoulder.
