Please give me reviews as this is an updated version as of May 9, 2017.
Danny wakes up one morning to hear CJ getting sick in the bathroom. "Honey are you feeling ok?"
"I don't know Danny I think I have the flu or something." Danny bends down to hold her hair. She finishes "thank you Danny."
"CJ I will do this anytime. As much as I want to help take care of you; my editor called and said I have to go to a meeting."
"Go Danny he is your boss. I am going to go to work."
"CJ, you just got finished getting sick." She just gives him a look, "ok, ok, just be careful and don't stretch yourself as much as you usually do."
...At the Washington Post...
"Hi, Mr. Reynolds you wanted to see me," Danny asks as he enters his boss' office.
"Yes, Danny we are going to make you a foreign correspondent again."
"But CJ and I still trying to plan our wedding." Mr. Reynolds is taken aback by this declaration from Danny.
"Wait you two are engaged?"
"Yes, for the past month in a half. We didn't want anyone who could print it to know yet."
"Why?"
"We wanted to enjoy our engagement."
"What about The White House."
"They are her second family and it was my idea to wait to tell the media."
"Well you should have told us sooner, but we already promised them we would send you."
"I want to spend time with my fiancé."
"Sorry Danny."
...That night...
" CJ." Danny walks into her office at The West Wing.
"I guess the meeting didn't go that well." CJ sees that Danny doesn't look very happy.
"Yah... I was told that I have to be a foreign correspondent even though I accidentally let it slip that we are engaged." CJ just smiles "what are you smiling about?"
"Danny, it is ok if you tell your boss that we are engaged. Yah I am not happy that we have to put off planning, but Danny we still have our future together. Just think we get married have a couple of kids, and administration is over we can go on vacations where I don't have to be attached to my phone. How does that sound?"
"Great. How are you feeling?"
"Better still not great, but still not great."
"Have you taken anything?"
"Yes, and I have an appointment tomorrow. When are you leaving?"
"The day after tomorrow."
"Well, at least we have two nights together before you leave for?"
"Three months."
"Well at least it's not a year and a half like last time."
"Good point." She goes up to him and wraps her arms around him. They stay like that until Carol comes in.
"CJ, you have a call on line one."
"Who is it?"
"The editor from the Post."
"Ok." CJ picks up the phone looking at Danny curiously "hello this is CJ Cregg. Oh, thank you yes, I am looking forward, yes, I understand that Danny has to leave for 3 months. Just promise me that you won't make him stay longer than that. Ok thank you here he is. Your boss wants to talk to you Danny."
"Hi Mr. Reynolds, ok you mean it. I have today and tomorrow off. Thank you, sir." He hangs up the phone picks up CJ and twirls her around, and kisses her. "CJ how about tomorrow after your appointment we go out to lunch and we start doing some planning."
"Danny I was thinking we get married here at The White House. We only have to worry about our families getting cleared, and we know everyone else. It would be easier we don't have to make plans if it is here."
"CJ that is a wonderful idea."
"So, you like it?"
"Claudia Jean, we are getting married in the place that we had our first kiss the place that brought us to a couple." CJ smiles as he kisses her lips. "Now who should ask The President if he is ok if we get married in The White House?"
"I can. He is my boss."
"We should go in together." They walk to The Oval office.
"Hey, Charlie does he have a free moment?"
"Let me see." He goes in "sir CJ and Danny are here. "Ok go in."
"Hi Mr. President Danny and I were wondering if we could get married in The White House. It wouldn't be for 3 months at least since Danny has to be a foreign correspondent for that time."
"Of course. I wanted the two of you to get married here."
"Thank you, sir." Danny says.
...That night...
"So, we have a place now what do we need?"
"The date, menu and guest list of ours. You need to pick a best man, I need to pick bride maids. We need a flower girl, ring bearer."
"What time is your appointment tomorrow?"
"Danny, I don't need you there my doctor will probably just prescribe me some medication."
"I know I just want to pick you up and drop you off."
"Are you going to take me into work also?"
"Yes."
...The next day...
" CJ what is wrong?" Danny asks as he picks her up from her doctor's office and sees a worried expression.
"The doctor thinks that I may be pregnant."
"CJ that is great why don't you look happy?"
"Danny, I don't know if I would be a good mother."
"CJ, you will make a great mother look at how you take care of your spin boys. You are basically a mother to them. If you don't think that's true. Why don't you think they tell you about who is sleeping with who. They don't want you to be disappointed in them."
"Danny, I don't know how to be a mother. My own mother died when I was little, then my step-mom died before I graduated high school."
"I want kids, but what if I?"
"CJ, we will do things as they happen. All that matters is our happiness." CJ leans across the console to give Danny a kiss. She just watches him as he drives her back to The West Wing.
"Bye Danny I will call you when I am finished. Love you."
"Love you too Claudia Jean Cregg." Abbey sees CJ walking into the room like she doesn't know what to do as she went to the East Wing for advice from the mother of the White House who raised three girls.
"CJ how are you doing? Are any of the guys treating you like the only girl again?"
"No."
"Do you need any advice on anything?"
"I don't know yet."
"How are you and Danny doing?"
"Great. We have decided a place to get married at."
"Which is?"
"Here at The White House."
"So, is there anything more?"
"I won't know until tomorrow after Danny gets on a plane."
"Which is?"
"I may be" she gets a feeling in her stomach "one second" she runs to the bathroom. Abbey follows her into the bathroom.
"Pregnant." Abbey knows from her own experience what is looks like.
"Yes, I won't find out until tomorrow after Danny is gone."
"Oh, honey don't look so sad."
"Mrs. Bartlet he is my fiancé and the father of this baby if I am pregnant."
"And until he comes back you will have everyone in The West Wing being the support you need, and I will definitely be a mother to support you, and give you any advice that you need."
"Really?!"
"Of course, CJ." CJ's private cell phone starts to ring.
"It's the way you love it's the way you care this kiss this kiss."
"That is Danny."
"Well, you may want to answer."
"Yah, hi Danny. I am doing better. No I am no longer nervous. I talked to The First Lady. Yah Fishboy. We would be the fish family" Abbey watches how CJ is smiling while talking once she hears a laugh that she isn't used to her really sees the smile of love. "I love you too Daniel."
"So, you were nervous?"
"I don't really remember how my mother was, and my step-mom too. I know I had a good mother daughter relationship with my biological mom."
"Well, you have me Claudia."
"I know that. Would you be ok if I am pregnant my kid calls you grandma?"
"Oh, CJ I would be honored and I am sure Jed would be too."
"That's good, since I don't know how much longer my dad will be around, and I want my kid to have two sets of grandparents."
"Well, whenever you have a kid she or he will have a lot of aunts and uncles."
"You should get to work before people start to look for you."
"Yah thank you Abbey."
...next day...
"CJ I will miss you, and our maybe child."
"I will miss you too." CJ gives him a big hug "I love you Daniel Concannon."
"I love you too Claudia Jean Cregg."
"Plane 789 is now boarding."
"I better go hon."
"Yah. Call me if you can when you land."
"Don't worry I will." He gave her another kiss before walking away and getting on his plane.
...at The White House...
"So, glad that you could join us CJ."
"Sorry Leo, I was just letting Danny on his plane." CJ's phone vibrates.
"Are you going to get that?"
"Hello."
"Is this CJ Cregg?'
"Yes, it is."
'I am calling from Dr. Johnson's office.'
"Ok."
'I am going to patch you through.'
"Can I please leave real quick, because this is a personal call that is IMPORTANT."
"Go ahead."
"Thank you, sir."
'Hi CJ, this is Dr. Johnson.'
"Hi Dr. Johnson."
'CJ, are you ready to find out if you are pregnant?'
"Yes."
'You are indeed with child.'
"Really oh sir thank you thank you so much."
'You may want to thank the father.'
"I will when he calls after he lands." She walks back into the senior staff.
"So, CJ you seem to be happy."
"Yes, I am."
"Danny shouldn't have landed yet."
"He hasn't. It was just my doctor."
"Tell me it is good news."
"Yes, it is wonderful news."
"What is it?"
"Well let's just say in about 9 months I will need some time off."
"How far along are you?"
"About 6 weeks."
"Please tell me it was after you two were engaged?"
"It was mostly likely the night after."
...in her office...
"How was your flight?" CJ and Danny on the phone after he lands safely on the ground.
'Pretty good. Did you find out if we are pregnant?"
"Well Daniel we are going to have a little guppy of our own that is half of you and half of me." CJ doesn't notice Abbey standing there with the biggest smile for her friend.
'Oh, Ceej this is great. We are going to be parents.'
"I know there is going to be a human that has both of us in them." Abbey is trying not to chuckle at this. "Danny, I got to go I just noticed that The First Lady is here so I got to go."
'Goodbye, and tell our child that I love'em and of course I love you.'
"I love you too Daniel Concannon. Bye"
'Goodbye my love.' She hangs up the phone.
"I take it that we are going to have a West Wing baby."
"Yes." She has the biggest smile on her face "I am going to be the mother of Danny Concanon's baby."
"Why did you call your baby a goupie?"
"It's a joke between us."
"Of course, since he is the one who gave you Gail."
"Yah."
"CJ, are you in shock?"
"I am just so happy that I get to carry Danny's child. I have wanted a kid for awhile, but at times I gave up until I met Danny and was able to date him."
"Does my husband know about the pregnancy?"
"Yah, my doctor called during senior staff."
