Jack carried Gwen to the autopsy room and placed her gently on the table. Owen checked her over.

"She has a bump to her head and slight concussion, but she should be okay," Owen told Jack not quite understanding why he looked so concerned.

"The baby," Jack whispered.

"What?" asked Owen, leaning closer to Jack to hear.

"Check the baby" Jack said staring at Gwen.

Owen didn't ask questions he just examined her. He shook his head.

"Jack there isn't a baby, there's nothing there."

Jack looked confused. "She only told me yesterday though."

Just then Gwen came to.

"Whoa, my head," Gwen said sitting slightly holding her head.

"Gwen, the baby..." Jack said

"What's wrong with the baby?" Gwen panicked cutting Jack off.

"There isn't a baby," Owen told her looking concerned at her.

"There is you idiot, I've had morning sickness for 3 days now and when I took a test it came up positive," Gwen told Owen anger showing in her voice. "It's Jacks baby," Gwen whispered not really wanting to announce it. Owen looked rather confused. "There IS a baby," Gwen reassured Owen "I know there is".

Owen looked as if he had just seen a naked woman when Gwen said that.

"That explains this then" Owen said as he grabbed an ultra sound system. He grinned at Jack.

"What are you looking at me for?" Jack asked.

"Get your top off Harkness" Owen shot at Jack. "Not something I imagined saying to you boss!" Owen said with a chuckle.

Jack did as Owen asked and removed his shirt. There was something very odd about Jacks stomach. Not the usual six pack there but it looked like he had developed the early stages of a beer belly. "Oh just great" Jack said realizing.

Gwen looked puzzled.

"Gwen in the 51st Century, men have the baby but the women have the symptoms."

Gwen looked horrified.

"Owen, how did you know?" Jack asked

"I remembered the day we saw Gwen, you said at least you wouldn't get pregnant... again, something like that tends to stick in a man's mind. I guess you were wrong."

"I didn't know I was going to meet someone quite like Gwen," Jack purred to her.

Owen guided Jack to the other bed and began to take and ultra sound of Jacks stomach, Gwen went over to join them.

"How long will he be like this" Gwen asked Owen and Jack answered.

"For nine days, just like a human development but in nine days rather than nine months."

Jack finished but before Gwen or Owen could say anything Jack took Gwen's hand.

"I'm scared," he told Gwen showing her some real feeling for the first time since he first told her he loved her.

"It's okay Jack, I'll take care of you," Gwen reassured him.

"Oh boy I'll be your doctor; I can't wait to see this!" Owen exclaimed, "Four days gone though Jack, things are going to start happening in less than a week, you're going to need to tell me what to expect," Owen finished looking at Jack, his face full of enthusiasm.

"Sorry Owen, but you know as much as me mate" Jack said happily but worried.

Owen cleaned Jack up and he stood. He pulled his top down, and reached out for Gwen's hand which he placed on his stomach which seemed bigger already and she felt it, she felt something move.

She looked at Jack lovingly and said "Wow."

They didn't move for a long time, Jack's hand on top of Gwen's. Owen decided he would leave and thought he would delight in telling the others of his discovery.

Xxxxxx

Gwen had been staying at the hub for the last four days, there was no point in going back to the flat, Rhys wasn't there and well everything she wanted was right here in the bed... Gwen suddenly realized there was no Jack. She looked around the room, no sign of him.

She climbed the ladder in to his office, no sign of him there either. She looked in to the hub and she saw him, in his pants!

"Erm Jack, is everything ok?" Gwen yelled down to him

"I'm not sure Gwen, I have this urge to clean up and organize."

Gwen knew that it was very unusual for Jack to want to clean up, so she decided it would be best to get him dressed before the others came in and saw him in, well in that condition.

"Come and get dressed Jack!" Gwen yelled again.

"Dressed?" Jack questioned looking down at himself, "You want me to put clothes ON?"

Jack said holding his arms wide for her to see him, his stomach was huge, like a woman who was 9 months pregnant.

"Yes Jack before you scare the team!" Gwen chucked back, at least he hadn't lost his sense of humour.

Jack had dressed in his usual pants and shirt only his shirt was open at the front and his belly was half covered with his white t-shirt, "Ugh I can't wait for this to be over," Jack said looking at himself in the mirror disgusted.

Gwen danced up to him, rubbing her hand over the baby and round Jacks waist pulling him in closer and she whispered in to his ear, "Neither can I."

Just then Gwen stepped back and bent over in pain.

"Oh God!" She yelped in pain.

"Gwen, what's wrong?" Jack said rushing to her side.

"Ugh, ouch," Gwen groaned again, "Jack do you feel anything?" she asked looking up at him her brow slightly sweaty.

"I feel a bit, erm... hungry," Jack said nodding his head, he was always hungry lately.

"Not helping!" Gwen groaned at Jack. "Okay the pains gone off a little now" she said straightening herself up.

The cog door rolled back and Owen walked in, he had been really cheery since Gwen got pregnant.

"Morning Jack, how's the baby doing?" Owen called up to the office door.

"Baby is fine, Gwen's not too hot though, well…actually she is hot but she's not feeling so well! Jack joked back to Owen.

Owen was slightly taken aback by this banter from Jack; it had been so long since they had shared in some banter.

Owen bounded up the stairs, he was wearing his white coat with the collar turned up and as he reached the door he flung his stethoscope around his neck.

"Good morning Gwen," he cheered.

"Is it?" Grumbled Gwen, "I feel like someone has kicked me several times!" she shot at Owen.

He considered what she had said for a moment and sat in Jack's chair, it was so big around Owen was surrounded by it, he was tiny compared to Jack, Gwen noticed. Owen tapped on Jack's computer and logged himself on and brought up some charts. Owen then scratched his head.

"Erm Gwen, any chance you got your dates mixed up?" Owen asked not looking away from the screen.

"I guess so... maybe, why?" she asked looking confused.

"Well I've been running a simulator on Jack and the baby like he was a pregnant human woman and now in the stage Jack should be, if he was a woman and human" Owen said looking at Jack and grinning, picturing him as a woman. "He should be due today!" Owen exclaimed.

Just then Gwen screeched in pain and Tosh who had just arrived looked up in surprise.

"Jack! Jack, oh God!" Gwen said reaching out for his hand. "I hate to be the one to tell you this but I think it's time." Gwen said looking all sweaty again and very pale.

"What's gonna happen Jack?" Owen asked looking concerned for Gwen.

"I think that Gwen will just feel pain, but Owen if you're sure its time you're going to have to cut me open," Jack said looking at Gwen worried.

"You mean a C Section!" Owen cheered and ran down the stairs to the Autopsy Bay and began preparing himself.

"Tosh get down here and get the video camera, it's the big day!" Owen yelled to Tosh from the autopsy bay.

Jack helped Gwen down the stairs, "This is so ironic," Gwen told Jack.

After a few minutes everything was ready, Tosh was with Gwen and Jack was on the table, all prepared for the C Section.

"Are you getting this Tosh?" Owen asked feeling like he was doing a normal alien autopsy and talking like he was doing one too.

"Can you not do that please" Jack asked Owen in an annoyed tone.

Owen grinned and made an incision on Jack from left to right.

"Are you ready to be a dad then Jack?" Owen said fishing around inside Jack.

Gwen looked terrible, rather green.

"Are you all right?" Jack asked Gwen peering over his belly at her.

"Sure thing," Gwen replied gritting her teeth.

Just then Jack began to make noises like he was dying, screaming out in pain as Owen pulled the baby by its feet. Jack could feel so much pain and voices were so loud in his ears and then it went black...
