I don't own Blindspot or any of these amazing characters…

Jane arrived back at the apartment early. She was carrying a bag she had clutched close to her chest tightly.
She was nervous and excited.
Kurt would probably be wondering where she'd gone. She hadn't told him, hadn't told anyone.
He'd been in a meeting with Reade and the new Director when she left. She'd told Patterson and Rich she was leaving but not that she wasn't coming back.
Sitting on the couch she looked out the window, her mind in turmoil.
Suddenly there was a key in the door. She looked up in surprise.
Kurt came in, worry written all over his face.
"Are you okay?" He came to sit down on the couch next to her.
"How did you know where I was?" Jane asked him instead of answering.
"Rich interrupted our meeting. He was worried about you, said you looked funny." Kurt explained.
"He shouldn't have done that!" Jane protested.
"What's that?" Kurt looked at the bag she was still holding.
Jane looked down with him, having forgotten she was holding it.
"It's…" She trailed off.
"Jane?" Kurt reached up to cup her neck gently, "You can tell me anything."
At that reminder she looked up and gave him a trembling smile, "I know."
He waited.
She waited.
"Do you need some space?" Kurt finally asked her.
"No!" Jane reached for his hand as though she thought he was going to leave her.
"What's going on?" Kurt squeezed her hand back.
"I'm…scared." She whispered as though it wasn't allowed.
"Are you feeling bad?" Kurt demanded immediately, "Are the headaches back? Did you faint?"
"Kurt," She interrupted him, placing her fingers over his lips gently. "I'm fine. It's a pregnancy test."
Kurt was now looking down at the bag with a glint in his eyes.
"Do you want to take it?" He asked her tentatively.
"I was going to wait on you," She admitted, "But then you came home early and now that it's time and…"
"You're scared," Kurt pulled her against him in support.
"I know we have two great kids already," Jane hastily reassured him, "I just want…"
"One that has your eyes," Kurt finished for her.
"And your heart," Jane agreed.
"All the best parts of both of us," Kurt insisted.
"If that doesn't happen…" Jane didn't know what to say after that.
"We'll still have each other," Kurt finished for her. "As long as I have you, I'll be happy."
She looked up at him with her heart in her eyes and trembling lips.
"Let's take the test," Kurt pulled her up and wrapped his arm around her.
"I have to pee on the stick," Jane blushed.
Kurt smiled down at her before kissing her forehead.
"Well, I would offer to do it for you," Kurt teased her, "But I don't think it works that way."
She laughed just liked he hoped she would.
It was less awkward than she'd imagined. They'd shared many intimate moments and this one was filled with hope for the future.
"How long?" He asked her as they stared down at the opening on the stick together.
"I don't know," Jane admitted.
Neither of them wanted to look away to find out, so they just stood silently, heads pressed together, and hands holding each other tightly.
It started out faintly. As it darkened, Jane looked up at Kurt with big eyes.
He wasn't watching the stick anymore. He was watching her with a gentle smile.
"We're…"
"Pregnant," He picked her up and spun her gently in a circle.
Jane started to laugh and cry all at the same time.
Kurt felt his own eyes tear up. They'd faced so much disappointment, despair, anxiety, loss. To have this moment after all of that seemed almost too good to be true, Jane might have been scared before, but he was the one scared now.
Not of having a child, but of risking Jane's health in any way. He'd finally just gotten her back. Healthy, whole, happy and he didn't want to ever risk losing that again, of losing her again.
"You should sit down," Kurt insisted, not waiting for her to agree, but ushering her over to the side of their bed and standing over her protectively.
"What's going on?" Jane was looking up at him suspiciously.
"You're pregnant," Kurt reminded her, "You have to start taking better care of yourself. I'll make sure you do."
That started sounding ominous to Jane.
"Are you going to become unbearable?" She demanded suspiciously.
"Yes," He admitted readily.
She rolled her eyes and shook her head in mock despair.
"Are you hungry?" He worried, "Or tired?"
"Neither," Jane insisted standing back up.
"Where are you going?" Kurt followed after her.
"To call Rich and ensure him I'm okay." Jane explained.
"I'm good," Rich's voice came from her phone.
"Rich?" Jane reached for her phone on the dresser, "What are you doing?"
"I hacked your phone," Rich admitted candidly, "I can't believe we're going to have a little grumpy warrior goddess running around! I can't wait to tell the others."
"You were listening the entire time?" Kurt demanded.
"Of course," Rich insisted, "It isn't every day that you find out you're about to be an Uncle!"
Kurt and Jane shared a look of disbelief.
"Goodbye Rich," Jane told him as she removed the phone battery. "Can you believe that?"
The fact that Kurt wasn't listening became apparent pretty quickly. He was staring at her stomach as if he thought it might expand right before his eyes.
"Kurt?" Jane drew his attention back up to her eyes.
"What?" He asked.
"Rich hacked my phone," Jane reminded him.
"Yeah," Kurt said absently, "He's a good friend."
"Are you okay?" Jane asked him, a puzzled look on her face.
"Of course," He assured her, his eyes never wavering.
"What's going on?" Jane demanded.
"I was just picturing you pregnant with our child," Kurt said, his voice husky.
Jane's eyes were draw to just how affected he was by the thought.
"The thought of me large with child turns you on?" Jane couldn't imagine that to be true.
"The thought of you carrying our child turns me on," Kurt admitted, advancing on her.
She felt a warmth in her chest when she met him halfway, "Oh, really?"
"Yeah," Kurt admitted, his lips finding the crease of her neck with unerring accuracy.
Jane shivered and her arms came around his neck.
"I see," Jane ran her hand down his back to pull his shirt free from his trousers.
"I'm still here," Rich said from Kurt's phone this time.
"Rich!" Jane froze.
Kurt pulled his phone out of his pocket, threw it outside the bedroom door and slammed it.
"That's hurtful!" Rich protested before the door closed.
Jane was openly laughing up at Kurt.
"So…baby making Kurt or father to be Kurt." Jane speculated. "Wonder which one is going to turn me on more?"
"Well," Kurt began divesting her of her clothing, "I have nine months to get this right. I've never made love to a pregnant woman before. I hear their bodies become more sensitive…"
Jane groaned at that. He regularly rocked her boat, so getting more responsive was a little bit intimidating.
"Never?" She just realized the significance of what he said.
"Never," Kurt assured her, his lips trailing down her body.
Much later Jane lay draped over Kurt boneless.
"Well?" Kurt teased her, his fingers running up and down her naked back, "Which is your favorite?"
"You," Jane explained exhausted, "You are my favorite. No matter how you touch me, or what the reason is, every time I get to be with you, it's my favorite."
Kurt's arms tightened around her.
"You're my favorite too," He kissed her forehead. "I didn't realize just how much love could change everything for the better."
After everything he'd been through because of his love for her, she felt her eyes tear up at his words.
"You okay?" He worried.
"I just…love you so much," Jane explained kissing his chest.
Kurt felt his own eyes get moist. "Love you too…"

"So…" Patterson looked up at them with a teasing expression, "You're pregnant."
"Is there anyone that Rich didn't tell?" Kurt demanded, the smile still on his face belied his exasperated tone.
"No," Patterson admitted, "I think he might have even bought a billboard."
"You're kidding?" Jane pleaded.
"Don't worry," Patterson laughed, "I cancelled it."
"Thanks," Jane laughed as she returned Patterson's hug.
"I thought you might be angry," Patterson looked at Weller with a puzzled frown.
"Well," Jane smiled over at him, "I believe he might be on his own mission to tell the entire world. He spent the morning on the phone with Sara and Allie."
"Is Bethany excited?" Patterson asked.
"Yes," Jane laughed, "Between Allie being pregnant and moving back to New York, she was just a little chatter box."
"What did Sara say?" Patterson asked Kurt.
"It's about time," Kurt laughed.
They made their way into the break room for coffee and there on the message board in huge block letters was the announcement.
"He's even been here!" Jane felt her face flush as she reached over and took down the notice.
"Actually," Patterson laughed, "Reade did that one."
Jane looked down at the note again. "You're kidding…"
"Nope," Patterson denied, "We all did some. Tasha and Ivan finished the elevator notices, Reade did the one your holding and I sent out the company wide email."
Jane didn't know what to say.
"I doubt there's that much interest!" Kurt protested.
"Well that shows what you know," Patterson laughed, "We already have a pool going for delivery dates, times and whether it's a boy or a girl. I think every person in the office is already in, the take is over $1000.00."
Now Jane and Kurt were both speechless.
"There she is!" Ivan joined them and picked Jane up gently and spun her around. "My niece or nephew better take after our side of the family."
"That's a scary concept," Rich joined them, "I just want to let you two know just how special it was to share those moments with you…"
"Don't push it," Tasha warned him, going over to hug Jane and then Kurt.
"I have a bet it's going to be twins," Reade warned them, "So see what you can do…"
Jane looked up at Kurt in astonishment.
"I…" She had no idea how to respond to that.
"We'll keep working on that," Kurt assured him.
Tasha and Patterson started laughing at Jane's panicked expression.
"I think you're scaring her," Patterson warned the others.
In a blink Kurt's teasing expression sobered and his arm went around Jane protectively. She let him pull her in close and buried her hot face in his neck.
"That's enough," He warned the others, his face serious.
"It's okay," Jane assured him, "I just didn't expect that it would matter this much too so many people."
"Jane," It was Patterson that explained it to her, "We have all watched the two of you struggle and sacrifice for everyone all of these years. It's both your turn to be happy and we all want that for you. The entire office is rooting for you. We love you both."
Jane couldn't stop the tears that welled up and spilled over at Patterson's passionate speech.
"No! Don't cry…" She protested.
"Its hormones," Ivan reassured her.
Kurt was watching Jane with an indulgent expression.
"I'm not crying!" Jane protested even as more tears tracked down her cheeks.
"My mistake," Patterson was a quick study and she immediately agreed with Jane.
Kurt pulled his wife against his chest and shared a look with Reade over Jane's shoulder.
"Since she's already not crying," Reade announced, "I'm officially retiring her from the field until further notice."
Before Jane could protest, the others all whole heartedly agreed.
"Nobody is on my side?" She demanded in outrage.
"We're all on your side," Tasha insisted, "And we always will be."
Just like that Jane was emotional again.
"How long does this not crying thing last?" Rich asked them with a worried frown.
"Nine months," Patterson told him.
"I'm investing in tissues," Rich announced, "Seeing her cry makes me want to join her…"
The other's looked at him in astonishment.
"What?" He asked defensively, "Are you saying you can watch this for the next nine months and not join her?"
They all turned to look at where Jane was burrowed into Weller's chest obviously not crying.
"No," They all mumbled, misty.
"That's enough of that," Weller insisted even as he gently wiped the tears from Jane's cheeks.
His eyes were suspiciously wet as he smiled down at her.
Watching on their family shared a look. This was going to be interesting…
