Please give me reviews as this is an updated version as of May 9, 2017.
Danny comes home late one night to see CJ fast asleep in one of his old sweatshirt. He changes into his pajamas and climbs into the bed. When CJ wakes up in the early morning she feels an arm around her, more of Danny's smell so she snuggles farther into the bed. Then realizes that the smell is actually Danny. "DANNY" she kisses him "you're home a day earlier the expected."
"Yes, I am my beautiful fiancé. That was a wonderful wake-up call. How is the little one doing," Danny puts his hand on CJ's stomach to try and feel his child.
"Well I have an appointment today, and we can find out the sex of our baby."
"Really?"
"Yes, Danny what do you want?"
"I don't care. I want a healthy baby who is happy."
"Same here." She snuggles into his arms "Danny I love you so much."
"I love you too." They are smiling at each other when her phone starts to ring.
"That must be work." She picks up the phone "hello, I'll be right there." She looks at Danny "you may be getting a call telling you to come into work. I love you."
"Ok Ceej. I love you too" he puts his head on the slight bump "and I love you little one."
...At the West Wing...
CJ is pacing around her office again, because of the John Hoynes book. Danny enters her office, "hi CJ how are you doing?"
"No comment."
"The briefing is starting in an hour."
"Ok."
"Just think the press is going to go crazy about our engagement, and pregnancy." CJ stops pacing and looks up at Danny and smiles.
"I know. You know how to cheer me up, Daniel."
"That is good as I am your fiancé."
"Come on Danny, we have got to go and surprise your friends. You are coming to the podium with me to announce."
"What if you call me up."
"That is a good idea, you know this may distract people from John Hoynes."
"You mean that disgusting terd."
"Yah, he is writing a book to smash this administration; the book may or may not include me, and something that I am not proud of that happened many many years ago. Before he even started to run for President."
"I know."
"What do you mean you know."
"I found out that you two slept together."
"What you know about that?"
"Yah I do. Before you say anything I have known since he was still Vice President. I was falling in love you when I found out. I found out before I gave you Gail."
"Danny please tell me that you didn't berry that story for me."
"No, it was around the time of Mandy's memo, and that was more of a story than something that happened years ago."
"CJ, Danny the briefing."
"Thank you, Carol," they say in unison.
"You two are now speaking in unison." The three of them walk to the Press Room together.
"Hello everyone before we start on today's news I have a few announcements to make. Danny, can you please come up here?" Danny walks up to the podium and takes CJ's right hand as she fiddles with her left hand in her pocket. "Well about a month before Danny left for his foreign correspondent gig he asked me to marry him, and I said yes. About 2 hours after he got on a plane I found out that we are expecting a child. Now I am 4 in a half months along."
"I am a happy father already. I can't wait till I hold that baby in my arms." He kisses CJ on the cheek as he steps away from the podium to go to his seat in the 4th row.
...At the Doctor's office...
"So are you ready to find out what you are having?"
"Yes." Both CJ and Danny have excited smiles on their faces.
"Well. Ms. Cregg and Mr. Concannon are having a little girl." CJ looks on with happy tears in her eyes.
"Danny, our little girl is growing in me."
"I take it is your first?"
"Yes, it is the first for the both of us."
...Back at The West Wing...
As CJ is reading a report when Abbey Bartlet walks into her office. "So do you two know what you are having?"
"Yes, but you are going you are going to have to wait just like everyone else."
"But I need to know for the baby clothes."
"Mrs. Bartlet, Danny and I are going to throw a little party with you, The President, Leo, Toby, Josh, Donna, Carol, Margaret, Debby, Kate Harper, a few of Danny's reporter friends, and our families."
"Wow, your guys 'first big party."
"Yep."
...The Party...
Everyone is gathered around the cake to see what color is inside it. Both Danny and CJ grab the knife and cut into the cake to reveal the pink inside. CJ and Danny look around at their friends and family to gage their reaction; CJ notices a really big smile on Abbey's face.
"I can't wait to help dress that girl in pink dresses, and see her around The West Wing maybe even taken her first steps in your office or The Press Room." CJ and Danny look at each other amused. Abbey looks around "what? I have already been told that I am going to be like a grandmother to this child." CJ is looked at by Danny's mother.
"I want my child to have two sets of grandparents, my mom has been dead for years" CJ's eyes start to mist over; "and my dad may not last that much longer." Danny has his arms around her before her eyes mist over.
"Honey, I think that is a wonderful idea. They already look at you like a daughter." He looks around at his mother like you shouldn't have said that.
At the end of the night Danny's mom takes CJ aside "CJ I am so sorry for what I did earlier tonight. I didn't know that you lost your mother at a young age, and didn't know your strong connections with The President and The First Lady."
"Everyone part of the staff got close to them during the first campaign, and Danny was their favorite reporter," CJ goes up to say goodbye to her future mother in-law.
"Yours too."
"Ever since I first saw him he has been more than just a reporter to me. Even more so now that I really know him and love more than I love being The Press Secretary. I can't wait to be his wife, and I will take his last name. I will only go by Cregg for rest of this administration."
"You know that he is my only son."
"Yes I do."
"I am never going to really like you, but I will always love you at the same time."
"Okay?"
"You are giving another grandchild and you love my son so much everyone could see that here tonight."
