A/N: Hey guys! I'm gonna drop this story soon and pick up another (which is a Glee horror story) which I've written four chapters of already so I think after this chapter I'm going to do a massive jump in time (again!) and see where I get to. My other story, The Blue Room, is in progress.

Chapter 12:
"Rachel!" Quinn shouted through the fifth baby store of the day, "Look at this!" Quinn could barely contain her excitement.
"Not again!" Sighed Rachel as Quinn danced around the store. They'd been shopping for hours and most of that Quinn spent cooing at toys, cots, clothes and accessories. Rachel was getting a little annoyed.
"Quinn we've bought some of those already!" She whined.
"So? When I was in her position I had no help besides yours and as we weren't friends that wasn't a large amount. I feel that being able to spoil both Darcy and the baby is a great idea."
Rachel smiled and Quinn kissed her on the nose before continuing, "And anyway I'll be spending ages with you later at Mercedes' party!" She winked at Rachel before disappearing off into the mass of baby items. Rachel laughed and wondered how Darcy was getting on at her scan.
Darcy's appointment had been at three pm but she'd left early to pick Matthew up on the way to the doctor's. Matthew was very excited; he hadn't been to one of Darcy's scans before.
When they got to the doctor's they only had to wait for five minutes or so before they were called in. After running through the health questions, the doctor told Darcy to lie down on the crinkly sheet of paper before he started up the machinery.
"This may be a little cold." He said. Darcy knew the feeling of the gel but she still flinched as it touched her. Matthew grabbed her hand and checked the baby's health before turning to them,
"Well you appear to have a very healthy baby that should be due in around 4 to 5 months. Congratulations!" he beamed.
"Do you know the gender of the baby?" Darcy asked quietly.
"You are having a..." He paused and looked at the screen. "Baby girl!"
Darcy looked at Matthew and beamed. He smiled back and the doctor left to give them a minute.
"A baby girl!" Matthew smiled as he kissed Darcy's stomach.
"I know. I always had a feeling that we were having a girl." Darcy smiled and Matthew looked as if he'd never been happier and Darcy had just said that they were having a baby girl as opposed to she was having a baby girl. The doctor came back in to ask how many copies of the sonogram they wanted. They asked for five. Darcy wiped the gel off her stomach and hopped down off the bed. She collected the copies of the sonogram as they left.
"I can't wait to tell everyone!" Darcy exclaimed. Matthew smiled but said;
"Can't we keep it a secret?"
"Sure." Darcy smiled and they walked out hand in hand.
