As if on cue, Leanne pulled back from the Puerto Rican man and offered him a soft smile, before reaching down and taking his hand. The look of confusion in his eyes was evident and Ethan watched as Leanne dragged him helplessly across the dance floor before depositing him in the chair next to Ethan. She eyed him softly before making her way to him and he pushed himself back from the table so that he could pull her to sit in his lap. He wrapped his arms around her tightly and shifted his gaze from her beautiful face to that of Jesse's confused one.

"Jesse…" Leanne's voice was soft and Ethan had no doubts that she was trying to keep as little attention on them as possible. "Ethan and I want to talk to you about something."

The nurse's eyes widened and his ears perked up, he leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath, Ethan wondered if he was maybe already on to them. It surely wouldn't be the first time. "What's going on?"

Ethan offered him a smile before taking Leanne's hands in his as he pressed a soft kiss to her cheek. "You tell him." He whispered against her ear, his forehead falling to rest against her shoulder. Part of him didn't want to see the man's reaction, part of him was nervous.

"I'm pregnant." Her voice was so soft and quiet that Ethan barely heard her himself, but when he felt her hands tighten around his he couldn't help but smile. He brought his eyes up to meet the other man's and when he saw the giant smile that spread across his lips he couldn't help the tears that started to form in his eyes.

"You're kidding…" Jesse's voice was quiet, much like Leanne's, and at first Ethan thought that his nervousness was warranted. But then Leanne shook her head softly and Jesse's smile widened ten fold and the next thing he knew the man had wrapped them both in a hug and was holding on tight.

"Nope." Leanne sobbed softly against Jesse's shoulder. Ethan couldn't help but smile when the other man pulled back, taking Leanne's tear stained cheeks between his hands.

"How far along?" The man's words were hushed and Ethan was silently appreciative that he understood the desire for not making a scene. So far the only person who had paid them any mind was Rollie, and judging by the sly smile on the man's lips, he knew exactly what was being talked about.

"Roughly five months. Give or take." Ethan chose to respond this time and when Jesse eyed him curiously he offered him a smile. "A New Year's Baby."

The chuckle that left Jesse's mouth was contagious and they all three erupted into a fit of giggles at Ethan's words. They couldn't believe the honest to God miracle that they were all experiencing right now. Leanne turned and eyed Ethan with a soft smile before turning back toward Jesse.

"We've been waiting to say anything." She choked back a soft sob and Ethan's hand found its way to her back slowly. "We wanted to be sure everything was going okay."

"I'm going to assume that it is…" Jesse's question was hesitant and Ethan understood his worry.

"We're not out of the woods completely." Ethan replied, his arms tightening their grip around Leanne's waist. "But we're optimistic."

"I can't believe this." Jesse whispered, his hands moving to run through his hair as he eyed the couple. "This is the best news ever."

Ethan chuckled, it indeed was the best news ever. He hugged Leanne close once more, dropping a kiss to her cheek before speaking. "We haven't told the others…"

"My lips are sealed." Jesse moved his hand across his lips like he was zipping them, and then threw his hand to the side, throwing away the key. "But you better hurry because I don't know how long I can contain my excitement."

They all let out another chuckle as Jesse rose, making his way across the room, eyeing Rollie suspiciously. Ethan had a feeling that the two were about to have a very serious chat with each other. He just prayed that Jesse would be at least somewhat nice. The older man had been a lifesaver the last months and he didn't want him to regret their decision to tell him first.
