MichaelNeela, Think 1 month after the wedding.

I don't own anything.

Chapter 4

Gallant stepped up to Admit and looked around. "Frank, is Neela here?"

Frank chuckled, "Abby pulled her into Exam 2."

He nodded. "She's okay then, just pregnant..."

Frank started to nod, "Yeah I-…what?"

"Yeah, Abby said she was pregnant on the phone, and Ray slipped something to me about her throwing up."

Morris came up behind them. "Who's pregnant?"

Frank took it upon himself to announce it. "Neela."

By now Chuni had also come up to admit, "Really, Neela?"

Gallant sighed and looked up; the door to Exam 2 was opening.

Abby came out and everyone started whispering. She could catch some of the words, it sounded like everyone at Admit had heard. She pulled Gallant back to the room with her, whispering into his ear. "Congratulations, how'd you do that?"

Gallant smiled, "Well…"

"Never mind, don't give me details."

She pulled the door closed as they stepped inside. Neela jumped up and ran to Michael's arms. "Michael, we're going to have a baby!"

The smile on his face seemed too large but he could still sweep Neela off her feet and he did, and he kissed her.

Abby smiled; for once she didn't feel so awkward in a romantic scene. "Congratulations you two. She opened the door and stepped out. Everyone was clustered around Admit and the door, waiting to hear what was going on, or what could be going on.

Abby looked surprised. "The nerve of you guys, maybe she doesn't want half the world to know!" Her voice was sarcastic, and she looked straight at Frank. "Perhaps some of us should learn to hold our tongues."

Frank opened his mouth to say something, "Gallant started it!"

Sighing, Abby raised her eyebrows. "Did he, well I'm sure he didn't say anything loud, or announce it…"

Kerry came up behind her announcing orders with that demanding voice, "What's all the fuss about, get back to work people! We have to clear this board!"

She started to walk away and someone whispered in her ear. "Neela's pregnant." Kerry looked surprised for only a moment, going with the flow of stirred and mumbling staff that were getting back to their patients.

The door to Exam 2 had opened, but no one had really noticed. The couple could get back to the lounge, and talk. In peace.
