Author's Note: If any of you are familiar with the television show "Hart of Dixie", Tim Matheson is who I picture as J.D. Halstead or if you've seen or heard of the daytime soap opera "Days of Our Lives", Peggy McKay is who I picture as a visual aid when you think of Wilhelmina Halstead.

Previously, in "Half of My Heart", Jessica "Chili" Chilton and Will Halstead discover that they had gotten married but neither remember it and end up consummating the marriage.

Chapter Two

"Can I take this off yet?" was the first thing that Chili asked as Will grunts with the effort of carrying her up two flights of stairs toward his apartment. Once at the door, he holds her firmly in his arms then used one hand to graze her derriere briefly to grab the set of keys in the rear pocket of her dark denim jeans. He drops the keys into her hands then waited until Chili had found the right key for him before using it to unlock the door, nudging it open with one foot and nearly dropped his bride onto the floor. "Will!"

"Sorry," Will mumbled to her in a quiet manner before setting her down properly on her feet before removing the blindfold he'd put over her eyes in the cab drive from the airport. Chili glanced around for a moment before her eyes fell upon the reason her new husband had nearly dropped her onto the nice hardwood floor. She turned her gaze up to meet the one that belonged to her husband. "Jessica, I'd like you to meet Wilhelmina Halstead…mine and Jay's grandmother. Grandma, this is Jessica…my new wife."

The older woman clicks her tongue. "Your father will be upset that you didn't invite your family, William."

Will cringes at the use of his given name. He hated it when someone called him that. "Dad doesn't care. And it was a last-minute impulse to marry Jessica. It was done off of a dare from some friends of ours," Will tells his grandmother. "Not even Jay knew, Grandma. He's been too busy with his own life." That was partially the truth; Jay did have his own life – a life that he & Erin were working toward on their own. Will just wanted to live his own life without his dad breathing down his neck. "Grandma, where are you staying? I'll call you a cab."

"That won't be necessary, William. I'm going to be moving in with you. And your lovely new wife." Chili and Will glanced at each other, both silently cringing at the thought of having no time for hot marital sexual bliss with interruptions every five minutes.

"Grandma, why don't you settle yourself into the spare bedroom while I talk to Jessica out in the hallway?"

Wilhelmina nodded and took her suitcase with her to the spare bedroom on the other side of the loft apartment. Chili follows Will out into the hallway outside of his apartment, crossing her arms across her chest. "You know what she's trying to do, right? She's playing spy so that your father will come and try to break us up!" Chili hisses, keeping her voice low.

"My grandmother would never do that to me, Jessica. She's always been on my side when it came to dealing with my father. I've never been able to get along with him." Not since Will and Jay's mother died, Chili thought to herself and she goes to hug her new husband. Will silently accepts the hug given to him by his new wife and goes to kiss the top of her head. "I meant what I said in Vegas. I want it all with you," he murmured low.

"Me too," she whispered in response before returning to her normal tone. "Let's go back inside." Will nodded, gently gripping her hand in his own before they turned to walk into the loft apartment once more.

SIX WEEKS LATER
"Hey, babe," Chili said from her spot in a chair at one of the two tables in the firehouse's common room. Will smiled as he approached her, dressed in his medium blue scrubs and crisp white lab coat. They leaned in toward each other at the same time, their noses brushing before Will let his head fall to an angle; their lips just barely touching. "You, me, a hotel room and mind-blowing sex?" she whispered against his lips.

They curl into a broad smile. "Tonight after your shift," Will agreed then kisses her in a soft, brief manner. And then the alarm let out a loud, shrill noise; the dispatch officer alerting those who were needed. Will gave Chili one more kiss. "Be safe. I love you."

"I love you too." One more kiss, and then she was rushing out the door with her fellow paramedic. How had he gotten so lucky? Letting out a sigh, the ginger-haired doctor left the firehouse and headed back to the hospital, where he picked up where he'd left off from his rounds.

Doctor Hannah Tramble watched him from her spot at the information desk. The blonde had never seen a man like Will smile as much as he did than when he was around that paramedic who brought patients into the hospital. Walking over, Hannah tapped the ginger-haired doctor's broad shoulder. Since they met 5 weeks ago – a week after he returned from his honeymoon as a happily married man – Hannah had been wanting to hang out with him – as friends, of course. Will turned around at the gentle tapping on his shoulder and gave the blonde behind him a broad smile before hugging her gently but fiercely. "How are you, Dr. Halstead?" Hannah asked as soon as she had pulled back from the hug.

"I'm doing good. I heard you were considering a promotion and a move to St. Louis," Will mentioned, and Hannah nodded.

"I was considering it but I love it here in Chicago," Hannah replied.

"Well, I do hope you'll consider your options," Will said with a slight nod before his pager went nuts.

"Go." The single word was spoken in a soft demanding tone as Hannah waved him on his way. Will smiled, kissed her cheek and turned to rush off to check up on the patient he'd been paged to the room of.

Hannah sighs. She sincerely hoped that she met a guy as great as Will.

C&W C&W C&W

The call had left her devastated. Will could see it later that night at the hotel. Once she had eased down onto the mattress, Will hurries around to get things set up for them. He understood what kind of day she was going through, having lost patients before.

Chili was still lost in a daze when Will emerged from the bathroom suite in a pair of his tight black boxers that didn't exactly conceal the evidence of his arousal. She finally shook herself out of her trance and stared at the lean, muscular body in front of her. Will let a grin curl his lips as his wife admired him with her eyes. "Like what you see, Jess?"

Her legs felt like jelly and her knees were threatening to buckle but she stood to her full 5' something height before staring head-on into his eyes as her fingers slowly worked the zipper of her jacket down. Will licked his lips as he watched this and inched his way toward her. "You know I find it sexy seeing you like this." Her response was quick & honest as Will pulled her flush up against his hard, throbbing arousal. "Will?"

"Yeah, Jess?" He pressed a kiss to the hollow of her throat and grinned at her reaction; a sharp intake of breath that caused her shirt-covered chest to brush up against the bare flesh of his.

"I'm pregnant."

Author's Note: I know, I'm SO mean, leaving you with a cliffhanger like that. But I had to do it to move forward with the story. It will jump around quite a bit as it progresses, so please don't be mad at me if I miss something for future chapters!
