Sunday went down, just like the previous day, they took a long walk through the park, hand in hand. The weather was beautiful, and as it was spring time, the fresh smell from mother nature lingered in the atmosphere.
"Jethro, I was thinking, if we have a girl what would we call her? I've always wanted a girl, you know so that I can dress her up pretty and do her hair..." she went on.
He looked at her sparkling eyes that looked like stars "I don't know what do you have in mind?" he asked as they walked through the beautiful gardens. She took a deep breath.
" Jacelyn Raine." She said.
"Wow that's a beautiful name" he kissed her.
"Thank you. I've always found it really pretty since I was a little girl" she smiled coyly.
He laughed lightly at her remark. "So lets do it, lets name our baby Jacelyn Raine!" he exclaimed.
"What if it's a boy?" she smiled.
"Well we can always name it Jace Raine. Or keep it the way it is. But I must
warn you, our kid would get bullied with a name like that in High School. Or Kacen." he said joking through some of it. She slapped him, playfully.
"Our kid? Doesn't that sound weird to you?"
"Yes and no. Yes because it's you...they might come out with three eyes" he joked
"Jethro, take it seriously" she demanded, with a hidden smile.
"I was" he grinned. She rolled her eyes. She hit him again.
" I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. You could come of you would like to."
"Of course, I wouldn't miss it for the world. What time is it?" he asked.
She stopped walking and fished for her planner from her bag "It's at...2:15. Can you make it?"
"Sure, I mean I might have to meet you at the doctor's as I have a meeting, but I will be there for you Jen" he placed his arms around her shoulders as they walked back to her Brownstone.

The next day...
"Jethro there you are, you're five minutes late."
"Sorry I was held back" He kissed her. She rolled her eyes.
"Jenny Shepard, Dr. Hart is ready to see you now" Announced the young nurse. They both stood and walked back. The nurse weighed Jenny. And to Jenny's shock she'd gained about six pounds. The nurse walked them back to the room and they waited for Dr. Hart.
Gibbs saw her facial expression turning from a shocked manner into a frown. "What's wrong Jen?"
"I'm getting fat!" she pouted.
He laughed "It's perfectly normal to put on weight Jenny, you are pregnant"
"What if you don't find me attractive anymore?" she sobbed, her hormones where beginning to make an appearance.
"I will always find you beautiful" he kissed her.
"Miss Shepard, the doctor is ready to see you again" the nurse said.
As they walked in the room, they felt their hearts beating fast.
"Miss Shepard, please take the seat"
She did as she was told.
"This will feel cold" Dr. Hart said, as he prepared to rub the gel on her stomach. Jenny shivered. Dr. Hart put the thing on her stomach and strong heart beat filled them room. Jenny broke crying it was the most beautiful sound she'd ever heard.
" Well you look to be about twelve weeks. Which means in about November the baby will be here. You're gaining weight and everything seems fine. There's only one baby." Jenny looked at the screen. There it was, that little two and a half inch baby. It was so small.
" There's his or her hands. Their feet. Everything is developing normal. I'll get your exact due date and some pictures and I don't need to see you until you're fourteen weeks."
"Okay. But is the baby healthy?" Jenny asked. Dr. Hart nodded."Very"
"Thank you" Gibbs and Jenny said. They left the doctor's office and went out to the parking lot. Jenny got into her car and Gibbs into his. They drove back to headquarters. Jenny put the ultrasound pictures in her purse and walked up to her office. No one knew yet. She decided to invite the team, Abby, and Ducky over for dinner. Her exact due date was November 28th. Gibbs walked up to her office. He walked in the door and saw her glasses on the bridge of her nose reading a report.
"November the 28th, wow!" Gibbs exclaimed. If someone told me three years ago that I was going to have a child with you, I would have told them to get themselves checked out. He thought.
"I know" she smiled.
" The baby'll come early. I can feel it."
" Jethro, he or she will come when they're ready. If it's early or late."
" Jen, you're very tiny. The baby will be born early because it doesn't confined spaces."
"Jethro, I'm scared, what if it comes too early?" she whispered, panic could be detected in her voice.
"We will cross that bridge when we have to, for now lets just enjoy our time together." He kissed her.
~*~*~*~*~*
As soon as their team arrived, Jen and Gibbs smiled at their guests, with nervousness.
Abby glared at the couple, with a cheeky smile. "You are not going to get married and move to France are you?" she joked.
Jen and Gibbs laughed. "Nope, but there is a reason why we invited you here tonight you see Jen and I...Jen do you want to tell them?" he whispered the last part.
"We're pregnant!" She happily exclaimed.
All members of the team gasp in shock. Was that a joke? Were they being serious?
"Wow! Really? I was not expecting that news. We thought it was something like you guys were moving in together" she stated, her eyes widened "Are you getting married?" she asked in excitement.
"Well..no..I mean, um...do you?" He looked at Jen who seemed to have turned pale at the mention of getting married.
"Do I what?" she asked, knowing full well what the question was.
"Get married?"
"Well...I, I...Okay!" She stuttered. Would they really get married? And would Jacelyn or Kacen really be here in November?
