As always, I do not own these fabulous characters. Majority of them belong to Aaron Sorkin; few of them belong to Ehli Attie. As always reviews would be accepted and will try to implement them on future stories\chapters.

It has been a month and no sign of Mandy, CJ took a test and it was positive. She has yet to make a doctors appointment as she has been busy with work and worried about Danny. "CJ when are you going to make an appointment to make sure you are indeed pregnant."
"Danny, I just have been busy with everything going on and I have been spotting."
"Does that mean we are not with child?"
"I don't know. I have to go to work," CJ gives Danny a kiss "I will be back around 7."
"I can call your doctor." CJ walks out the door and gets in her car trying to get her mind focused on work and not that she may be pregnant. When she gets to work she gets a call on her phone from a number she doesn't recognize and picks it up.
"Hello."
"Hello CJ," CJ knows that voice anywhere.
"What do you want Mandy."
"Danny, you don't deserve him."
"I am not going to leave the guy I love and distanced myself when I was in The West Wing."
"You will if you don't want to lose your job and everyone you care about." CJ walks into Carol's office and puts her phone on speaker while putting her finger over her mouth to keep Carol quiet.
"The people who love me won't be intimidated by someone trying to take away Danny. We are planning to get married and have kids, so anything you say will not deter our relationship no matter how hard you try."
"Danny is supposed to be mine."
"Danny has been in love with for many years. He did all he could to be with me. I will not stop being with him just because you threatened me. I put aside my personal life for 8 years, and I am not going to do that again. If you even try to do something I will call the police on you Madeline Hampton." Mandy hangs up the phone in a huff as CJ and Carol lock eyes.
"CJ, are you back to being worried about Danny?" CJ shakes her head.
"Carol, I never stopped worrying. I hear this is a part of being in a strong relationship. I may even be pregnant, and I think Danny is going to propose." Carol tried to keep her joy contained but fails when CJ smiles.
"Two things are you going to say yes, and you think you are pregnant?"
"I will say yes, and I am spotting, so I am afraid to see my doctor if I have lost my little miracle."
"CJ, remember last year when my sister was pregnant with her little boy." CJ nods her head yes, "she was spotting early on in her pregnancy, and her OBGYN said that was normal."
"That is good, Danny did offer to make the appointment for me."
"Go call him, and tell him to make the appointment and say you want him to go with you."
CJ smiles as she walks to her office to call Danny, "hey, Babe."
"What's up Fishgirl?"
"Go ahead and make the appointment and make sure you are free when it happens."
"Really?"
"Yep, I just was talking with Carol and she convinced me to have you call Doctor Fasco."
"I'll get right on it and will call your Doctor. How about I come by with some lunch later."
"That sounds wonderful," CJ smiles into the phone, "I will look forward to that. I have to go, love you."
"Love ya too Ceej." They hang up as they get to what needs to be done. Around 12:30 Danny shows up with sandwiches for him and CJ. He goes up to CJ who has her back faced away from the door and he puts his arms around her waiste and kisses her cheek.
"Mmmm is that you Danny."
"Yes, it is, how has your day been so far?"
CJ turns around to look in his eyes and puts her right hand on his bearded cheek, "great, well besides the call from Mandy."
"Mandy called you?"
"She did."
"What did she say?"
"She thinks that you are hers."
"She couldn't be more wrong."
"I know, look at the things we have been talking about since your attack."
"Exactly, now let's get eating." They sit down to eat and as they are finishing Carol comes in the office.
"Hi, Danny. CJ we have to call Hollis."
"Ok let me say bye to Danny." Danny gets up and gives CJ a deep kiss and starts to think about the number of Gold Fish he may need tonight.
"Bye hun. I'll see you at home."
"Yes, you will," CJ raises her eyebrows hoping Danny will get the message.
…Hours later…
CJ walks into the house to see candles everywhere, "Danny where are you?" CJ walks into the kitchen to see Gold Fish spelling out 'Will you marry me?' She turns around to see Danny on one knee with a ring that has a silver band and her birthstone incased around diamonds. CJ's hands fly to cover her mouth.
"Claudia Jean. You make me the happiest guy in the world it would make me the happiest guy in the world if you would become my wife."
CJ gets down to kiss Danny, "yes, I would love to be your wife, Danny." Danny puts the ring on her finger, "may I ask you why Gold Fish?"
"They are your favorite snack food, and I hope this is one of your favorite memories just like when I gave you Gail."
"Oh, Danny it is a favorite memory. I love you."
