A/N: Ok, so the last chapter wasn't as romantic as I wanted it to be. This one is going to be much better, I hope. Anyways, enjoy!

The two walked hand in hand down a well lit street in Central DC. JJ had her other hand on her five month pregnant stomach.
"It's amazing when night falls. All these beautiful lights come on," JJ said in amazement. Spencer squeezed her hand.
"We'll have to bring Olivia here once she's old enough to remember," he suggested.
"That's a great idea!" JJ exclaimed enthusiastically. Spencer pulled JJ down to the end of the street, to a quiet, yet brightly lit park. Gently, he led her to a beautiful flower garden, in a secluded corner of the park. JJ smelled the air. It was clean, and fresh. Spencer shoved his hand into his pocket.
"Spence…what are you doing?" JJ asked, smiling.
"Jennifer…I know we've only been together for a few months now…but I love you…and I want to know…," Spencer trailed off, dropping onto one knee.
"Will you marry me?" he finished, opening a red velvet box to reveal a ring that had to have cost more than his yearly salary. JJ gasped, a hand slowly going over her mouth.
"Oh my god…Spence, yes!" she cried. Spencer stood up, and carefully slid the ring onto her finger. It fit perfectly. So softly it made JJ's heart ache, he ran his hand down her cheek, then leaned in to kiss her. JJ kissed him back, feeling more love for him than she ever had. The kiss was euphoric, a high that neither of them had ever felt. When they broke apart, it was almost a disappointment.
"I love you Spence," JJ whispered.
"I love you too"

Spencer walked slowly to the front door, yawning. Ever since he had moved in with JJ, he had become accustomed to answering the door with no shirt on. Opening the door, he met Emily and Morgan's eyes.
"We heard you two got engaged!" Emily squeaked, giving his chest an appreciative glance. Spencer leant against the doorframe.
"It's ten past seven on a Sunday morning. JJ's still asleep. I haven't had a coffee," Spencer rattled off.
"Who stuck a stick up your arse?" Morgan teased, letting himself in. Emily followed.
"Wait, Jay's in bed?" she asked. Spencer nodded. Immediately, she rushed into the bedroom.
"So, you asked her, and she said yes?" Morgan asked.
"Yeah," Spencer groaned, throwing himself on the lounge.
"What'd you do after that, make out? Have yourselves a bit of sex?" Morgan laughed. Spencer shot him a look that could've murdered someone.
"Former," he muttered.
"What, no sex?" Morgan teased.
"Because that turns you on, doesn't it, the thought of your colleagues having sex?" Spencer snapped. Morgan slowly got up off the couch, and began backing towards the kitchen.
"I'm getting you a coffee," he said, quickly leaving the room, with his hands up as though he was surrendering.

Emily sat on the edge of JJ's bed, watching the blonde sleep.
"JJ?" she asked tentatively.
"Go away," JJ groaned. Emily reached over and grabbed JJ's hand, admiring the diamond ring sitting on her finger. JJ gave in and pushed herself up.
"Jayje, that's beautiful!" Emily admired. JJ gave her a tired smile, and ran a hand through her hair.
"Em…I don't mean to be rude…but can you give me fifteen minutes? I have to actually wake up, and have a shower," she said, a grin breaking out on her face.
"You go wake up, and have your shower. I don't mind, I can just go piss Morgan off for a while," Emily replied, moving towards the door. JJ laughed.

JJ slid over the arm of the couch and into Spencer's lap, giving him a deep kiss, not caring that Morgan and Emily were right in front of them.
"Get a room!" Morgan yelled, lobbing a balled up piece of paper at JJ. JJ immediately broke the kiss, turning and ditching the paper back at Morgan. It soon turned into a pillow fight that quickly got out of control. Morgan turned, swinging fast, not realising JJ was behind him. As soon as he'd hit her, he panicked. JJ fell back onto the couch, not sure whether to laugh, or yell at Morgan.
"Oh my god, JJ, are you ok?" Morgan and Spencer asked in unison, making their way over to her.
"Guys, seriously, I'm not going to break just because I'm pregnant," JJ retorted, making Emily laugh. Morgan waved his hand in front of him.
"Psh. I knew that," he lied, which caused everyone to crack up.

After Morgan and Emily left, JJ and Spencer simply lay on the couch, holding each other. JJ couldn't take her eyes of the beautiful ring that sat on her finger. She was still finding it hard to believe that she and Spence were going to be married.
"That was fun," JJ murmured.
"Yeah," Spencer replied, kissing the top of her head. JJ sighed and leaned into him.
"Spence?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you sure you're ready to be a father?" JJ asked. Spencer remained silent, thinking.
"Spence," JJ probed.
"Jayje, if I wasn't ready, I would've said something when you first told me you were pregnant. I already love our little girl, and nothing is going to change that," Spencer replied, wrapping his arms tightly around JJ. JJ smiled.
"You're going to be the one who explains puberty and sex to her," Spencer said suddenly. JJ laughed.
"Well, if I get pregnant again, I'll get the doctor to make sure it's a boy," she retorted, Spencer raised his eyebrows as he laughed.
"I don't think that's possible Jayje!" he gasped.
"I know," she replied flatly, curling into his side. Spencer calmed down, and gently ran his hand through her hair. They lay there for a good half hour before JJ broke the silence.
"Spence?"
"Mmm?"
"Olivia's going to love her daddy"
A/N: This chapter took ages to write, because I kept getting those garden variety 'hoverers'. Man, sometimes my family drives me crazy. As soon as I type for longer than 30 seconds, my dad's asking questions.
Anyway, I hope you like this little shortie. I know my storyline is jumpy, going forward in days, then weeks, then months, but honestly, I'm getting too excited about Olivia actually being born!
