Jim and Sebastian find out the sex of their child. At least 99% of you will guess correctly. There's no twist or anything- now or later on.

Sebastian smiled contently as he held Jim's hand in the waiting room of the clinic. He glanced at Jim, who looked like a perfect picture of bored, and gave his hand a squeeze.

"What's up with you, Jim? Is it that boring to see your child?" he asked, sarcastically.

"Nothing, Sebastian," he said, leaning his head into his hand on the armrest. He looked out of the corner of his eyes to look at Sebastian. "Why? Am I boring you?"

Sebastian's smile turned into a frown. "No, it's just that, you've been acting...like...you've been thinking a lot, lately. Won't you tell me what's so important?"

Jim sighed. "Really, Sebastian, it's just something I'm thinking over from work."

"Is it something that stupid temp said? You know it's not true." He brought the back of Jim's hand to his lips. "I still don't know why you won't allow me to shoot him. For a baby present, can I shoot him...? Please? You won't even have to wrap him or anything."

Jim allowed a genuine smile to grace his lips. He seemed to be doing that a lot around his lover recently.

"Maybe later, tiger. You've done enough damage to him as it is. I wouldn't want to go through the interview process all over again."

Sebastian chuckled and saw the familiar nurse make her way over. Jim stood and lent a hand to Sebastian as he struggled to get up. Sebastian grabbed his lower back and Jim made sure he didn't tip.

"Really, Sebastian, are you actually thinking about returning to work [so soon] after the birth? You're supposed to grow another fifteen to twenty pounds by the end of this, aren't you?"

Sebastian straightened up and started to follow the nurse. "I already told you Jim, nothing is going to change in our lives. If that means I have to go on a crazy diet to get back to my original weight, then I will. My job is as important to me as yours is to you."

Jim sighed, defeated, and followed behind him. He opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by the clinic doctor opening the door and ushering them into the room. He was shown a chair and watched to make sure Sebastian got on the table without injury.

"How are you today?" Rick asked Sebastian. He cautiously turned toward Jim, not used to seeing him personally. "Jim, it's a surprise to see you here."

Jim gave a stiff nod and looked at Sebastian. "I was told I had to come or I wouldn't know the sex of our child."

"It was punishment for last time," he defended.

"Well, first things first. Sebastian, how have you been feeling for the past month?"

"Good...sometimes I feel like a ten pound brick is sitting on my spine and have to piss every hour, but the usual."

"Hm...and the eating? You have continued to gain weight at a healthy level?"

"Yes. Always hungry though. Cravings are still...unusual-"

"Very unusual." Jim chimed in. "How anyone could get to the point of dipping cheese in ketchup? I swear..."

"You know, Mr. Moriarty, some people crave things their body are deficient in it. So the ketchup and cheese could be a sign of not enough calcium or a product in both. You could take solstice in the fact most craving are short and intense. There may actually be only one reoccurring craving."

"I guess," he sighed. He saw Sebastian slightly-sad-but-mostly-confused look and smiled up at him. "There's nothing wrong with you. Just...being conversational," he lied to ease Sebastian hurt.

Sebastian remained skeptical but decided to let it go. He turned back to the doctor. He's been through enough of these to know the basics is all the professional wants to know. He tries to go through this process quickly, feeling Jim's boredom growing substantially by the second. He knows that Jim is only interested in the ultrasound part of the appointment. The sooner they could skip to it, the better attitude Jim will be in.

"Now, I know last time that you said you want to know the sex, but I want to know if your sure. A lot of those who wait usually change their mind-"

"No, we definitely want to know... I will not take any more waiting," Jim intervened.

Sebastian sighed and brought his hand to his face. "Jim...Please calm down. I know you're anxious, but seriously. Your pissing me off."

Even though Jim had a look of nonchalance, Sebastian knew Jim had listened to his words.

Sebastian laid back on the padded table and lifted his shirt. "I've made up my mind, Doc. I-we-want to see of were having a girl or a boy."

The doctor nodded, not wanting to say something that could potentially cause an argument. He took out his equipment and went through the familiar process of the gel and the remote. He could also feeling Jim's boredom.

He searched around the surface of his stomach before a clear side view of their child appeared. Like every time, though Sebastian wouldn't like to admit, it took his breath away. He looked at Jim from the corner of his eye and was happy with what he saw. Jim stared wide-eyed, breath caught in his throat, as he viewed the grainy photo that appeared.

Sebastian reached for Jim's hand and places it lightly on the side of his abdomen. The response he gotten not only surprised him, but Jim too. They watched on the screen as the baby moved around and hit the side of Sebastian's stomach hard enough to where Jim could feel it too.

Sebastian would swear he had heard Jim gasp, but it was a tiny slip of self control that was quickly covered up.

Jim cleared his throat. He made sure his voice could show no emotion before speaking.

"And it's healthy?" he asked quietly, mesmerized by the screen.

"Yes, he does seem to be very healthy."

The rest of Jim's perfectly schooled mask slipped off entirely as his emotions hit him like a ton of bricks. He gasped loudly and stood up, knocking the chair he was sitting in back. He started to pace the small confounds of the room, ignoring the stares he received from the other two people in it. He pulled at his hair and murmured small words to himself under his breath.

The doctor shot a look of concern at Sebastian, wondering if he should do something. Sebastian gave a minute shrug and shook his head. He knew Jim would calm down eventually. This was all new to Jim as it was the first time Sebastian had seen their child on the screen. Jim just needed to process it in his own way; hence, pacing and hair pulling.

A few paces later, Jim suddenly stopped and ran his fingers through his ruffed-up hair. He pulled and straightened his suit before calmly turning around and picking up the chair before sitting in it.

He took Sebastian's hand again and smiled. "You know what this means, don't you?"

Sebastian stared at Jim, confused. He gave a small shake of his head.

"This means...we don't have to specially tailor the suits our boy is going to wear."

As I said, most of you likely guessed correctly. I can't picture them having a girl unless there's chaos. Lots and lots of chaos that I don't feel could fit in. I feel like they would prefer one gender over another. But imagine till your heart's content. If your mind wants think of the baby as female, then it won't make a difference now. Baby's are practically the same for the first year…

I have next chapter written out and its super long (to me), so I think I'll split it up? There's action, but it's in the works. I am disappointed in the first draft, but I'll see how it goes. Definitely contains at least one warning of murder and attempt! See you on in two days :)
