Chapter 2
Tony Nelson was at his desk when a familiar man walked in.
"Hey Tony."
"Oh hey Roger."
"Are you and Jeannie ready for tonight?"
"Tonight?"
"Yeah, we were going dancing remember? And I was supposed to introduce you to Kathleen."
"I'm sorry Roger, but I don't think Jeannie is feeling very well today."
Looking a little disappointed, Roger nodded his understanding and walked to the door.
"Okay, well, I'll call before I go pick Kathy up."
"Sounds good." Tony said and he went back to the report he was writing.

Jeannie was miserable.
She couldn't help but cry. She wanted to call Tony but she knew he was busy so she called on her mother.
All of a sudden her mother was standing on the other side of the couch, her back to Jeannie. Looking around the house, Jemma turned and saw her daughter.
"Jeannie, my darling daughter!" She said happily and walked around to the other side.
"Oh mamma, I am sick!" Jeannie said and started to cry again.
"Well that's nothing to cry about." Jemma said as she pulled her daughter into a small hug.
"I can not help it mamma, I just feel like crying."
Her mother patted her back and moved her slightly off her so she could see her face.
"Jeannie? Is there a possibility that you are pregnant?"
"With a baby?"
"Of course with a baby."
She had never really thought of it before. Could she possibly become a mother?
"Well, there is always a possibility mamma, I am married." Jeannie said matter-of-factly.
Jemma put her hand on her daughter's stomach and closed her eyes.
Jeannie watched her mother intently waiting for her to open her eyes.
When she did, a big smile crossed her face.
"Oh Jeannie! My precious daughter." She said, tears coming to her eyes.
"Mamma, what is it?"
"Baby, you're going to have a baby!"
Jeannie's face showed nothing but happiness at the news and she hugged her mother tightly.
She was so happy.

"What is going on? Why are we stopping?"
Melissa was in the backseat of a cab going to Cape Kennedy when they got stuck in traffic.
"I'm sorry Miss, but it doesn't look like we will be moving for quite sometime."
Sighing heavily, Melissa sat back in her seat and waited.
About fifteen minutes later she arrived at the base. After getting her pass, Melissa made her way to Tony's office.
"Excuse me miss."
"Yes?"
"You can't go in there, that is for authorized personnel only. If you want to go on a tour..."
Melissa stepped up to the secretary's desk and looked her in the eye.
"Look, you must be new here, my name is Melissa Stone."
The secretary looked confused then her face turned pale.
"Oh miss Stone! I am very sorry, I was just doing my job, please go on."
Melissa nodded and walked down the corridor to Tony's office.

"Yes sir, you will have those new fuel ratios by tomorrow. I understand." Tony was on the phone with General Peterson when the door opened. Watching, Tony still talked to the general. "Yes sir, I will be there." He finished and hung up the phone as Melissa walked in.
He was shocked that she was standing there.
"Melissa!"
"Hello Tony."
"What are you doing here?" He asked as she moved to sit on his desk.
She put her hand on his face and looked seductively at him.
"I'm here to tell you how wrong I was." She said and leaned in to kiss him.
Tony stood up suddenly and almost brought Melissa to the floor. He didn't pay any attention to her; he just walked to the door and opened it to let her out. And standing there was Jeannie and Jemma.
