***************
BJ stared at her in surprise. His surprise look turned into a large smile and he hugged her.
"You sure?"
"No, not positive but I'm pretty sure."
"Well if you are, I'm so happy for you two." He said.
"Thank you BJ."
"Does Hawk know yet?"
"No, I don't want to tell him until I'm positive."
"Oh. Who in this camp has a specialty in OB?"
"Scarlett studied it."
"She knows more than I do. I know the basics."
"Well Hawk did, ah, he cant."
"Go to the lab. I'll get Red."
"Thanks BJ."
"No problem hon." BJ smiled standing up and walking out. Margaret took a deep breath and then headed for the lab. BJ walked to find the red-headed surgeon.
The Lab:
"Well?" Margaret asked staring at her friend.
"Well what?" Scarlett asked in a teasing tone.
"Scarlett Rose Wilder!" Margaret snapped.
"Well Magpie, before I tell you. I want to know. If you are pregnant, do you want the child?"
"Yes. More than anything."
"Okay, would you be upset if you weren't?"
"A little. But we'll try again."
"Were you two trying?"
"No. We were discussing after we were married."
"You know if you are pregnant, this child will have been conceived out of wedlock."
"I know. And if I am, this child will be just as loved as a child that was conceived in wedlock."
"Well Magpie. 'Daddy who?'"
"What?"
"You're pregnant, with child, caring a spawn of evil, a mother, you're knocked up!" Scarlet smiled. Margaret smiled and hugged her friend. "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Margaret said as tears fell. "Oh no."
"What?"
"I'll be discharged."
"No you won't. You see, we just don't tell the army." Scarlett said simply. "Besides the peace talks are coming along great."
"Scarlett, we need to tell the army."
"I know, we'll postpone it. Say is the peace treaty isn't signed by August the 1st, we'll ship you home."
"That's just over a month away."
"I know." Scarlett said. "And my tour is over August 1st."
"Heading home?"
"Yeah. Without Charles."
"I'm sorry I know how close you two are."
"Yeah well. I love him." Scarlett said softly.
SWAMP
"Hey Charles." Hawkeye said wandering into the tent.
"Yes Pierce?"
"You know that Red's tour is up in just over a month right?"
"Yes Pierce, I am aware of that."
"What are you going to do?"
"What do you mean, what am I going to do?"
"You gonna marry her?"
"I don't see how that is any of your business." Charles said looking at the dark hair surgeon.
"It is my business, I love her."
"As do I. I don't plan on losing her." Charles stated.
"Then do something about it. She's already lost a husband. I don't want her to lose the one man she truly loves."
"I have every intention of doing that Pierce. Now if you can excuse me, I have important business to take care of."
"Fine. But one more think Charles."
"What Pierce?"
"You forgot the ring." He said gesturing to the small red velvet box. Charles walked back, grabbed the box and headed out of the tent. He walked across the compound to find the smiling doctor that he loved so much. She was in her tent, so he knocked on the door.
"Come in." She said as Charles opened the door. Scarlett smiled when she saw who it was. She walked over to him gave him a quick kiss and smiled. "What can I do for you?"
"Oh I was wondering if you would like to accompany me on a walk?"
"I would love to." She smiled. Scarlett grabbed his hand and together they walked through the compound. People had come accustomed to see the two couples together. In their opinion no one was more perfect for the other then they were. Margaret and Hawkeye were on a walk, she was still trying to find a way to tell him. But all he wanted to do was see how Charles was going to propose. After a little while, Charles stopped Scarlett and looked at her.
"My dear, I have never met anyone I care for as much as you." Scarlett smiled at his words. But he wasn't finished. "You love your children, and you have the incredible skill as a surgeon. You have a heart of gold, and one of the most caring person I have ever met. I would be honored to be the step-father of you children. You own my heart and soul. And forever more, I want you to have them," He paused and bent down so he was on one knee. "Scarlett Rose Wilder, would you do me the pleasure of becoming my wife?" He asked pulling out the little red velvet box and opening it reveal a beautiful diamond ring beautifully shaped in a heart. There were two tiny stones inside the ring. One garnet and the other amethyst.
Scarlett looked at the man in front of her. She had tears coming from her eyes. "Yes." She said through tears. Charles placed the ring on her finger and kissed it. Everyone in camp burst out clapping and cheering. The two stood there with smiles on their faces. Completely involved with each other. Not once had anyone imagined that when they first met that they would be standing here in front of them as an engaged couple.
Meanwhile Margaret stood in the doorway of her tent, holding her abdomen. BJ walked over.
"Its positive?"
"Yeah. I'm eight weeks along. Eight weeks ago I fell completely in love with Hawkeye." Margaret admitted as she watched Charles and Scarlett continue to walk.
"Well Margaret, may I be the second to say congratulations."
"Thanks BJ." Margaret smiled.
"So how are you going to tell Hawk?"
"I don't know, but I have to. How did Peg tell you about Erin?"
BJ laughed as he remembered. "Well I came home from work one day and she was sleeping on the couch. It was funny. I walked into my office and there on the desk was her results on paper. Until the day Erin was born that was the happiest day of my life."
"How do you think he'll take it?"
"I don't know," BJ said honestly. "I know that he has Anastasia, but I don't know how he'll take becoming a Daddy."
"Becoming a Daddy. That sounds different."
"Not as different as becoming a Mommy. Well I got to go. See you later 'Mommy'." BJ teased before walking away. Margaret stood there. Something just came into her mind. She was becoming a Mommy. For the first time in her life she knew that she made the right decision. Becoming a mother was the best thing she could ever find out. And she couldn't wait to tell Hawkeye, the only problem was 'How?'
Daddy Who?
