Christina sat down on Lilly's bed, seeing what her sister was holding in her hands.

"Did you take the test", asking softly.

A breath was released as Lilly then nodded" Says that I'm pregnant", holding back her tears" I don't know if this test is really accurate", fearing that John might not want to go through with marrying her if he had found out about the baby. The truth was she knew that he didn't want any children, due to his age factor.

Then her sister's voice brought her back to reality" Have you gone to the doctor yet".

Shaking her head no, Lilly then released a breath. However she knew if in fact she was truly pregnant, she had to tell John. After all he was her finance; and a secret like this one shouldn't be kept from him. Calling out sick out of fear and resentment wasn't becoming of her, especially since Lilly was engaged to someone who loved her for who she was.

When John received word that Lilly wasn't coming into work, this morning; he immediately headed over to her apartment. There he found her wearing a pair of sweat pants and a top; looking quite casual.

"You alright", seeing how her hands were shaking while trying to guide the cup up to her mouth.

He then placed the glass back onto the counter, before she looked up" You know how I've been gaining weight recently", before handing him the test.

John raised an eyebrow" You sure, heard those type of things aren't that accurate".

His response didn't comfort her in the least" I need you there with me, if I am pregnant", knowing that she would need his support all the way.

However the thought of being a father in his late fifties, was scaring him. John wasn't nearly expecting to have another child, but was much more content with just having a grandson. One thing he wasn't going to do was leave the woman he loved so much, along to raise their baby; if she was in fact pregnant.

After making an appointment; which was set for three hours later; John had to return back to work. When he had gotten there, his nervous had clearly set in. By the time three hours had arrived, John was trying to act calm even though Lilly was quite nervous.

While chewing one of her fingers, as her name was being called out. Once inside of the room, her doctor went over a few things before performing a sonogram. As the wand moved against her pale skin; the two of them looked up to see something on the monitor; combined with the sound of their baby's heartbeat.

At first a million different thoughts rushed throughout John's mind, before he gave Lilly a smile. He couldn't believe that at his age; he could still be capable of having kids.

"You're almost three months along", her doctor spoke" the baby is completely healthy" before shutting off the screen. This then left the two of them along, as Lilly sat up" You alright with us having a baby thing"?

John was still in shock over it, but nodded. This made Lilly worry" Tell me, we don't hide secrets from each other".

"I don't know if I'm mentally or physically able to handle raising a baby", being honest.

Her eyes looked into his, before he touched her hand" One thing I'm not doing is leaving you", lifting up her chin" I love you"; eying her stomach.

As Lilly gently wiped off the gel, she then caressed her abdomen as a motherly smile came across her face" You already have experience; I'm a first time Mom".

John knew that she was right; he wasn't some nervous first time dad. He already was both a father and grandfather; which in a way did count. Sometime after leave the doctor's office, Lilly's hand remained on her stomach; protectively.

"So you heading back to the office", she asked.

He hesitated, pondering if he should leave his pregnant fiancé or head back" Have to, or Scotty might punch someone out again".

Moving closure their lips came together, before John's hand slid onto her stomach. A smile came across his face knowing that they had made this little life together. No sooner after he had returned, John felt a sense of normalcy in his life. He had an impending birth of his second child, and a wedding to look forward to.

To him life wasn't so bad, but clearly he now had other problems pertaining to his department. Like the fact that Scotty's anger was spiraling out of control; since Christina had dumped him just a few days ago. With now another case heating up, John was ready to tackle this next one.

The fact that Lilly wasn't in attendance, didn't sit well with Scotty either, as he was the next to arrive. What caught his eyes was baby book lying on the coffee table.

"You planning on having kids Lil"?

"Already have on in production", as she grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge. Scotty nearly was taken back, feeling slight uncomfortable with her carrying John's baby. Though he was fine with the fact the two were engaged; the baby thing took the cake.

Scotty let out a breath" Didn't think men at his age were capable doing that".

"Well, he did happy now".

He paused for a second, before glancing down at her stomach" How did the boss take it"?

"Better than I had imagined it", before Scotty sat down" I'm happy for you Lil, baby's going to be beautiful like you, or bald like him".

This made even Lilly chuckle a bit" just hopes it's a little girl", stroking her abdomen. Her voice grew softer when thinking about her unborn baby inside of her" I waited a long time, you know".

Scotty then squeezed her hand, before leaving. Even he was happy for his partner and best friend, but remained quiet about the pregnancy. Later that night, John arrived back at her place carrying a dozen roses.

After a light dinner, Lilly sat down as he was drinking some beer on the couch. He then noticed that her hands were caressing her stomach; before placing his hand there as well.

"We still getting married, or wait until this one is born".

John took a swig of his beer before setting it down, ignoring her rules about putting down some coasters.

"I imagine we won't have time, once this one arrives", leaning over to capture Lilly's lips "Got connections to a guy who works for a small place".

"Any chance we're heading back to Miami Beach", her eyes looking dreamily.

He chuckled a bit" Haven't thought about it, but you're bringing the sunscreen next time", making her laugh.

" No more pretending that you have work on your mind, from the guy who acted all shy about being in bed with me", touching her stomach to drive the point home.

John smiled once again" You taught me how to live again Lil, not many women had done that".

"What women would that be", looking at him, before the two continued to laugh together.

With now their wedding date being moved up, Lilly was already getting the jitters. The question was would everything be alright when she finally did walk down to him? Though it was nice to have Christina back in her life; and the fact that she was no longer dating Scotty was a major plus; Lilly had wondered if this was just a dream.

She knew that it was far from it; this was really happening but had no idea just how magical her wedding day would actually be.
