"Is she going to be okay?" Hank asked standing next to Gwen who was lying down on a hospital bed.

"Yeah, actually, Congratulations are in order." the doctor replied

"Congratulations?" Gwen asked bewildered to what the doctor was saying. "What do you mean?"

The doctor looked at Hank. "It looks like you're going to be a father"

"Huh?" Hank asked.

"So, you're saying I'm ppreeggnnnaaantt?"

"Yes, that is exactly what I'm saying." The doctor said with a small grin on his face looking at two completely puzzled people.

"But how is that even possible? I mean a boat load of doctors said I couldn't have any kids"

"Call it a miracle." the doctor replied leaving what he assumed to be a couple about to celebrate the wonderful news that they were having a baby.

"You okay?" Hank asked looking at Gwen whose mouth hadn't closed since the doctor had told her that she was expecting.

"I'm….. I'm happy" Gwen answered while slowly a smile graced her face. "I'm getting what I always wanted. I'm going to be a mother."

"I'm just glad nothing was seriously wrong with you. You scared the hell out of me when you suddenly dropped to the ground in the middle of the park" Hank said while releasing a breath he didn't even know that he was holding in.

"I really scared you, didn't I?" Gwen asked noticing the shear relief in his eyes. How did this happen? I have a wonderful guy in my life and I'm going to be a mother. It just doesn't get any better than this.

"All I know is that I heard a thud and I turned around and saw you were on the ground." Hank answered remembering that exact moment of the incident.

Gwen pushed herself off the hospital bed to get closer to the man who had been there for her for the past couple of days. She looked straight into his eyes feeling like they where drawing her to him and she had no problem obliging. Suddenly she was only inches from him, and she felt like she couldn't breathe. He laid his hand on her cheek caressing it softly before leaning in to give her a soft kiss on her lips. He pulled away and then she grabbed his collar on his shirt pulling him toward her for a passionate kiss. Hank wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her in toward him as close as humanly possible, while Gwen let go of his collar and crossed her arms around his neck. They stayed that way for a while until the need to breathe became too strong. Once their lips parted, they just stared at each other with smiles on their faces.

"When are you going to tell Ethan?" Hank asked while Gwen was sitting on top of his lap with her legs wrapped around his waist.

"You really know how to kill the mood, don't you?" Gwen asked ticked off that he would bring up Ethan Winthrop in her presence.

"Answer the question" Every part of Hank knew he was charting in dangerous territory. Bringing up Ethan around Gwen was like walking threw a field laced with land mines. One wrong word and she was going to blow up at him. Hank knew that he had to push her because no matter what Ethan did to her, he has a right to know that he was going to be a father, especially after the whole Ethan not being a Crane fiasco.

"What am I supposed to be telling him?" Gwen asked playing dumb hoping that he would just let the whole issue go.

"That you're carrying his baby" Hank answered deciding to play along with this little game of playing dumb she had started.

"Who ever said that this baby was his? I could have easily cheated on him with some guy." She said getting from off of his lap and walking to the window turning from his sight to look at the park across the street where he was her knight in shining armor.

"Come on Gwen. Are you forgetting you told me everything about your last four years?" He said still sitting on the couch looking at the back of her head.

"Maybe I left that particular part out?" Gwen stated praying that he really would just let it go. She was getting really irritated and she really didn't want to get into a huge argument concerning Ethan and that was exactly where this conversation was headed.

"Gwen you confessed that you and your mother set up Theresa to take the fall for sending the truth about Ethan's true paternity to the tabloids. Compared to that, cheating on Ethan would simply be considered karma on his part. So, why would you leave that part out?" Hank asked knowing he was pushing her buttons and she had almost had her fill of this little game that they where playing, but he had to.

She turned around and looked at him straight in his eyes and did something that shocked the hell out of him.

"Fine, I'll tell Ethan about the baby" she said still a little unsure of what exactly she was doing.

"Huh?" Hank questioned scratching the back of his hair completely dumbfounded that he actually had won this game so easily.

"On one condition"

"I knew that was way too easy." He commented waiting to see how she was going to get out of this. "So, what is it?"

"After the baby is born, I'll tell him"

"So, in other words six months from now. And why would I go along with this."

"Because there is actually a reason why"

"Really" he said sending her a questionable look. "I can't wait to hear this"

"I left Harmony about two weeks ago because I walked in on my husband making love with Theresa. It nearly killed me seeing them together. This pregnancy isn't supposed to even be. I can't take any chances and if I tell Ethan about this baby he's going to want to be around. And if he's around then she'll be around and right now I can't handle that." Gwen said in a pleading tone for Hank not to push anymore and accept her decision on the matter.

"Okay" Hank said because there is absolutely no way he could argue with anything she just said. At least I got her to actually agree to tell him about the baby. That's a miracle in itself.
