Ok so this is the last chapter for this story. I had planned on dragging this out into two chapters, but it seemed to flow better this way. I hope you agree :)

Big thanks to everyone who Faved, followed and/or reviewed. You guys are all amazingly awesome and are the reason that I keep writing these stories. Thank you all so much for all of your kindness :)

Charlie smiled as she sat down in the booth across from Danny's girlfriend Anna. They had talked the other night and made plans to meet for lunch since they hadn't gotten to see much of each other since the wedding, since Danny and Anna both had school.

Anna smiled and slid a menu over to Charlie. "Hey, I told the waitress you were coming."

Charlie took the menu and set it aside. "Thanks." She said. "But I already know what I want, I always get the same thing from this diner."

Anna leaned forward, her elbows on the table. "Alright, so tell me everything." She said.

Charlie chuckled. "I take it Danny filled you in some?"

Anna nodded. "Yeah, so Bass has a kid?"

"Well," Charlie said. "I wouldn't call him a kid, he's older than I am." She said with a smirk.

Anna chuckled. "I guess that's true." She said as the waitress showed up to take their orders. After she left Anna raised her brows. "Alright, so tell me what happened, how did you guys find out?"

"Well…" Charlie said as she launched into the story of the night before, telling Anna everything she knew about Connor and how he had found them.

"He sounds like a pretty nice guy." Anna said as she and Charlie propped their feet up in the booth next to the other, their empty plates stacked on the table as they sipped from their water glasses.

Charlie nodded. "Yeah, Bass talked to him more than I did, but he seemed like a good guy." She said and then scrunched her nose slightly. "But it's weird right?" she asked. "I mean, imagine finding out your husband has a son that's older than you are." She said and Anna chuckled.

"Yeah, that would be odd, but you two are exactly the norm right?" Anna said and Charlie laughed. "That's almost exactly what I said to Bass last night when he was worried about how I was taking everything."

Anna smiled. "You have a good one there Charlie." She said, referring to Bass.

Charlie nodded and smiled. "I do." She said. "But then so do you." She said as she sat up a little and grabbed the little cardboard advertisement that sat on their table by the salt and pepper shakers. "Why don't we get one of these brownies and you can tell me all about how things are with you and my brother?"

…

"I still can't believe that Emma let you actually sleep with her." Miles said as he and Bass walked down the aisle at the grocery store, Rachel having placed a list in his hand before shoving him out the door.

"Haha." Bass said as he picked up a random box and looked at it while Miles read over the list in his hand.

Miles grabbed a package from the shelf and tossed it into the cart. "Seriously though, how did Charlie take it?" he asked.

Bass shrugged. "Amazingly well actually. She had questions obviously, but she was totally cool with everything." He chuckled. "She thought it was hilarious that he's older than her."

Miles snorted. "That is pretty funny man, you gotta admit."

Bass rolled his eyes, but smirked. "Yeah yeah." He said. "Really though, she took it better than someone in that situation could have hoped for, but I mean, she's Charlie."

Miles nodded. "That she is."

…

"What are you doing?" Bass asked after finding Charlie in the kitchen, doing what looked like cooking. But that couldn't be, Charlie can't cook.

Charlie turned to him and smirked. "I am reheating, don't worry, mom made this, its lasagna." She said.

Bass smiled. "Oh, nice." He said. Rachel made the best lasagna. "Did you have a nice afternoon with Anna?" he asked as he opened the over door and looked inside.

Charlie nodded as she shooed him away. "Yes, it was nice to sit and talk with her for a while."

Bass turned to her and wrapped his arms around her waist, resting his hands on her lower back and smiled. "And what did you ladies talk about?"

Charlie leaned up and kissed his chin. "How wonderful the men in our lives are." She said, and Bass pulled her a little closer.

"That's a funny coincidence, Miles and I talked about how great you are today." He said and Charlie shrugged. "That's only natural since I'm so amazing."

Bass laughed and leaned down to kiss her.

Charlie pulled away and scrunched her nose. "Does something smell off about the lasagna to you?" she asked as she pulled out of his arms and opened the oven.

Bass shook his head. "No, it smells great to me, you mother did not pass her cooking skills on to you, that's for sure." He said.

Charlie rolled her eyes and playfully backhanded his stomach. "Shut up, are you sure this smells right? It doesn't seem a little off to you?"

Bass shook his head. "No babe, it smells fine. You want to get something else for dinner though, just in case?"

Charlie shook her head. "No, it's probably just allergies or something, messing with my head, I've had a headache the last few days too."

Bass frowned. "Why don't you go and rest, and I'll finish getting dinner ready, go take a bath or something and relax." He said.

Charlie smiled and kissed him one more time. "Alright, thanks, you really are the best you know?"

Bass smiled and nodded. "I know, it's a burden sometimes, but it's my burden to bare."

Charlie rolled her eyes as she left the room.

…

Bass woke up to the sound of water running in the bathroom and looked at the clock to see that it was 3A.M. He closed his eyes, starting to drift back to sleep when he heard Charlie groan. He got up and went and knocked on the door.

"Charlie, babe are you alright?" he asked, but didn't get a response.

He opened the door and found her sitting on the floor. "Charlotte baby, what's wrong?" he asked as he knelt beside her, his hand going to her forehead and brushing her hair back.

Charlie looked up at him and grimaced. "I knew there was something wrong with that lasagna." She said before she pushed him away so she could kneel in front of the toilet as she got sick once again.

He got up and got her a damp wash cloth and a glass of water. She took them from him and squinted up at him. "Are you ok? You aren't sick or anything too?" she asked.

Bass shook his head. "No, I feel fine." He said as he sat down beside her once again. He cocked his head to the side and reached over and laid a hand on her cheek, smiling slightly when she leaned her head against his hand.

"I'm sorry it made you sick, we should have just gotten something else, I'm sorry." He said again.

Charlie shook her head. "Don't worry about it, I'll be fine now." She said.

He nodded and stood up and held his hand out to her. "You ready to go back to bed now?" he asked.

Charlie nodded and took his hand and let him help her up. She smiled slightly. "Thanks." She said as she sat the glass and wash cloth on the counter by the sink.

Bass smiled softly and wrapped his arm around her. "I'm your husband, that's what I'm here for." He said.

It didn't take long before they were both back to sleep.

…

The next morning Bass woke up to find Charlie sitting cross legged on the bed staring at him. He smirked a little as he squinted out of one eye at her. "You know the whole, watching me while I sleep thing is actually kind of creepy when you're so intense about it." He said.

Charlie rolled her eyes. "I was waiting for you to wake up." She said.

Bass sat up and rubbed his hands over his face to wake himself up more. "Why, what's wrong?" he asked, taking in her serious demeanor.

Charlie shrugged lightly. "You were right, there wasn't anything wrong with the lasagna last night, that's why you didn't get sick." She said.

Bass nodded. "Alright, so why did you? Do you think you have the flu or something?"

"Or something." She said. "I was thinking about this early this morning, there have been other signs that I just hadn't realized were signs until now." She said.

Bass frowned. "What are you talking about, what's wrong?" he asked, starting to get worried.

Charlie smiled lightly and shrugged again. "How would you feel about another kid? One that you get to raise this time?" she asked and smiled wider when he looked confused. "I'm pregnant." She said as she handed him the pregnancy test that she had tucked under the edge of her leg.

Bass reached out and took the plastic stick from her and looked down at it, speechless. He shook his head and looked back up at her and smiled. "We're going to have a baby?" he asked.

Charlie nodded. "Yeah, we're going to have a baby."

Charlie smiled wider when Bass let out a whoop and pulled her into his arms, hugging her to him. He leaned back and looked at her for a moment before leaning in and kissing her.

"We're going to have a baby." He said, sounding slightly awed.

Charlie nodded again. "Yeah, we are. You're going to be a dad." She said.

"And you're going to be a mom." He said to her.

They both looked at each other as matching grins spread across their faces.

The panic will come later. They will have those moments when they will freak out about the responsibility of another human being, and the worry that they won't be ready when it arrives, or they won't be good enough parents. All the normal things to worry about will pop into their heads later. But for today, this moment, the only thing they are worried about, is who to tell their good new to first.

I have plans for the next story but I'm not making any promises on when it will be posted...but it shouldn't be too long of a wait.

Remember...

Reviews make you AWESOME!
