Thank you so much for reading this story. I know most of you probably already figured out what the tests said, but thanks for reading anyways.


Derek came in from the garage a few minutes later, going into the bedroom to change his sweaty clothes. He noticed that the bathroom door was shut so once he put on a clean shirt, he knocked.

"Em," he called, "You alright? Are you feeling sick again?"

"Come in," she called, voice weak.

"Emily," he said, walking into the bathroom and seeing his wife staring at the counter which had three objects on it, "Em, what's going on?"

She just pointed at the counter. He looked at it, noticing that it was pregnancy tests. He figured they were probably negative again and didn't even look.

"It's alright Em," he said, "We can keep trying."

"No," she said, "Look again."

He looked closer and that's when he saw it, the three pink plus signs on the three sticks. "Is this for real?" he asked, looking at her with wide eyes.

"I think so," she said, staring at him.

"Really?" he asked, shock on his face.

"Yeah," she said, "Aren't you…"

He cut her off with a kiss, long and passionate.

"We are going to have a baby," he said, looking at her again. She nodded as he picked her up and spun her around.

"Derek," she said, voice shaking as the nausea grew in her already unstable stomach. He put her down and she barely made it to the toilet as she threw up.

"Oops," he said, rubbing her back gently as she lost what little she had eaten that day, "Sorry."

She glared at him, wiping her mouth with some toilet paper before getting up and brushing her teeth.

"Are you alright?" he asked as she leaned on the counter.

"Yeah," she said, taking a deep breath, "Just nauseous. I wonder how long this is going to last?"

"I don't know," he said, pulling her to his chest.

"JJ was sick for months," Emily said, remembering her best friend's pregnancy with the triplets.

"Don't thin about that," Derek said, kissing her head.

He was so excited at the thought of having a baby with Emily, but watching her feel as awful as she was made him slightly less excited for the next nine-ish months.

"What are we going to do?" she asked, looking at him, "We just got Caleb. How is this going to affect him?"

"It's going to be fine," Derek said, kissing her forehead, "He will be fine. Right now, I'm more worried about you. Are you alright?"

"I'm tired," she said, honestly, "And still feeling pretty gross."

"How about you go curl up in bed and I'll join you in a minute," he said, bringing her close to his body. "What about Caleb and Declan?"

Emily asked, worried about her boys.

"Caleb is out cold and Declan is thirteen," Derek said, "I'm sure if I tell him you have an upset stomach, he will be able to entertain himself and even Caleb if he wakes up."

Emily nodded, knowing he was right.

"Now," he said, "Go put on some pajamas and I will meet you in bed in a minute. And you," he said, kneeling down by her stomach, "Let Mommy get some rest."

Emily smiled, tears in her eyes as she watched her husband talk to the baby she just found out existed. Emily went into the bedroom, grabbing one of Derek's t-shirts out of his drawer, slipping it on before pulling on a pair of soft shorts before crawling into bed.

Derek came in a few minutes later with a cup of tea and some crackers.

"I know you're feeling sick," he said, climibg into bed next to her after stripping off his shorts, "But you need to drink something."

She nodded, taking the tea and sipping it slowly.

"Thanks," she said, smiling at him before putting the cup on her sidetable.

"I can't believe we are going to have a baby together," he said, looking at her with a huge grin.

"If I weren't feeling so awful," she said, looking at him, "I would tell you that all those tests could be wrong, but yeah, I think we are. I need to make an appointment with my OB though."

"I love you so much," he said, kissing her gently.

"I love you too," she said, snuggling close to his warm body as his sent calmed her upset stomach and lulled her into a peaceful sleep.
