A/N The feedback has been great, and I'm still taking votes on whether to be shippy or not, however at this point it'd take a lot of nots to overcome the ships... anyway, here's another little bit to whet your appetite.
The first thing Jack did after finding out Sam was pregnant was count. He realized that if Sam was over two months pregnant, the baby wasn't his but—Pete's.
Clutching Sam's knees with almost impossible force he quietly turned to look over his shoulder at the doctor sitting behind the desk. Sam was still curled over, her head near his chest andweeping, when she heard his question.

Her mind was frantic. As soon as she heard the words come out of his mouth, she knew she could lose him. There was the possibility that the baby wasn't his, and if it wasn't could she really hope that he would stick around and raise another man's child?
Raising her head slowly and meeting the doctor's eyes, seeing the left half of Jack's face as he looked over his shoulder, she said a silent prayer. Then she saw the tears fall from the doctor's face.

"How far along is she?"
Carolyn was afraid it would come down to that. She didn't know when they had gotten together. She knew he had been gone for over a month, and there had been speculation that something had happened between them before he left—but she didn't know if the information she was about to provide was going to rip apart the people before her, or make them happy.
Usually she knew—if someone was dying, it was bad news, if someone was living—good. But this was unknown, and tears fell down her face without thought as she stared at the couple waiting anxiously for the news.

"Please doc, how far along is she?" He asked again, looking at the grief stricken doctor, his insides clenching. Doing the math—the only other time they were together was that one night before he left. That was a month and four days ago.
A/N Mean, I know, but I'm already working on the next part and as you know, I will get it out as soon as I'm done! Hope you liked!
