Robin's been hiding the fact that she did not go to the sperm bank but that Patrick's actually the father of her child… their child. She hasn't told him for several reasons, and if he finds out, she feels he'll only feel obligated to be there for their child together. Patrick's been suspecting that Robin's carrying his child, especially since the day he found out that the condom broke. What happens when Patrick finally asks her if he is the father of her baby?

Author's Note: I hope everyone enjoys this chapter. I thought I would go with a different approach of the ultrasound heartbeat chapter like I did with 'Don't Hate Me' and I hope everyone loves the reactions from the two. I really was going to do twins, but that would be too scary for our Patrick and none of us really want that, now, do we? I did use a line from the show but I changed a word or two. Just like Don't Hate Me, Ian's a good guy. Anyways, everyone, I hope you guys will enjoy this beautiful chapter. I am always taking suggestions. Thank you, Renee31, for the way Patrick should come in the exam room.

It had been a week since Carly had tried to badmouth both Robin and Brenda. Robin was finally past her first trimester of her pregnant, being fourteen weeks pregnant. She was so excited because she was about to have her ultrasound in just minutes. It still amazed her how supportive Patrick was being towards her, especially since she hadn't told him about her carrying his baby for a while to begin with. She had thought a bomb was going to drop at any second where he wouldn't want to be here for her or the baby during her pregnancy.

As she looked around the room where she watched Kelly setting up the equipment, along with the fetal Doppler, Robin just couldn't help, but to being excited. Patrick and her would be hearing their son or daughter's heartbeat in a few moments.

Frowning that he still wasn't here, Robin couldn't help but wonder if this was the bomb that she was waiting to drop in front of her. As Kelly turned to her, she sighed. Patrick really wasn't going to be here and it was killing her on the inside. It would be the first ultrasound that he would been able to make that he actually knew about.

"Robin, we need to start," Kelly told Robin, as she flipped the monitor on, and she flashed a warm, yet generous smile on her face to hopefully ease away her stress.

"I know. I was just hoping that Patrick would be here for this," Robin frowned, as she lifted her shirt up right below her dress. "I really wanted him here for this, Kelly. Everything's been going so well and he's not even here to hear our child's heartbeat. It's-- not fair."

"I know, sweetie, but maybe, just maybe, he actually got called into surgery or something?" Kelly suggested, as she saw disoriented Robin looked right now. "Come on. Try to cheer up. You get to hear your healthy baby's heartbeat."

"I know but I just wished my baby's father was here with me. Let's just get started."

Kelly could see the hurt in her friend's face and she wished that there were something she could do to bring a smile on her face. She knew that once she heard her child's heartbeat flowing through the room, Robin would either be crying, laughing, or smiling like a babbling fool. As Kelly began to put the cool gel upon Robin's small bump on her stomach, they were interrupted by a panting Patrick, who was hunched over, as well having his hands on his kneecaps.

"I am… so… sorry… baby… a man came in with a… head injury… and… my dad… he took over… a surgery…" Patrick panted, as he looked over at the two women, who were smirking at him. "What?"

"You're here," Robin gushed, as she couldn't hide the smile from her face. "I thought you were going to miss this."

"Never," Patrick said, once he regained his breathing, and he took a seat next to her on the empty spot on the bed, taking a quick glance over at Kelly. "Now, shall we get the show on the road?"

Kelly laughed, as she grabbed the hand-held wand, and she then placed the end against Robin's stomach, noticing the smirks upon both of the handsome and beautiful doctor's faces. Hopefully, this baby would bring them a lot closer.

"Everything looks pretty good," Kelly informed the two of them, as she smiled, showing the parts of the child on the monitor screen. "I am hoping when you come back in two weeks, we will find out the gender of this hyper-active child."

"I have told Robin it's a bouncing baby boy," Patrick said with determination written across his face. "Just watch and learn. I am never wrong about things like these."

"Whatever," Robin scoffed, as she shook her head in disbelief. "If we have a girl, you will never hear the end of it."

"Trust me. I have a feeling that you are right," Patrick chuckled, as he then watched Kelly turn on the fetal Doppler where the most beautiful sound filled the room. "Is that…?"

The most beautiful sound filled the room, hearing the fluttering and the bouncing of Robin and Patrick's baby, filling the room. Kelly looked to the two doctors and smiled. Sure, she expected tears from Robin, but when she saw the tears filling inside of Patrick's eyes, she knew that this was going to come as a shocker that this was what he wanted.

"Yes, that's your child's heartbeat, Daddy Drake," Kelly teased, as she let the sound echo through the room, and she begun to print some sonogram photos of the Scorpio-Drake child for the two. "He or she has a very heartbeat rhythm. This child looks to be a little small but that's too be expected, Robin. Remember, try to eat healthy, and don't over-feed yourself."

"Daddy Drake," Robin grinned, as she looked up at Patrick, who moved some hair away from Robin's face, along with her eyes. "I love the sound of that."

"Damnit Kelly," Patrick said, as he shook his head, and he laughed. "This is all of your fault."

Kelly laughed, as she shook her head, and she handed Robin a couple of napkins. As Kelly watched her friend clean the gel from her stomach, she handed the photos to Patrick of their child, along with a DVD of where they would be able to see their child's heart beating.

"This seems so unreal still," Robin blushed, as she placed her hand on her dry belly, and then pushed her top back down. "It still amazes me that I am pregnant. I feel like I am drying sometimes."

Kelly grinned from ear to ear, as she looked at the stubborn couple. "Well, you are. How about you go ahead and make your appointment for two weeks now?"

"I think someone's trying to get rid of us," Patrick joked, as he helped Robin sit up.

"No! I'm not. Why are you trying to start trouble?" Kelly asked with a raised eyebrow, as she glared into Patrick's direction. "When you aren't looking, you're going to get it."

"Uh huh, sure," Patrick said sarcastically, as he placed his hands on his hips, and he flashed her a warm-hearted, dimple smile on his handsome face. "What are you going to do? I mean, you going to hit me with the fetal Doppler?" When he saw the serious look on her face, his smile disappeared from his face. "You do know I was kidding, right?"

"That actually doesn't sound like a bad idea," Kelly teased, as she saw the reaction on his face. "I'm joking, Patrick. Listen, you two. Behave… I need to get going. I have a consolation now and I am already running a few minutes behind."

As Patrick watched Kelly leave the room, he looked down at Robin, and he shook his head. "I will say it again but you have an interesting choice of friends."

"Yes but they love me," Robin said, as she slid off of the bed with his help, and she smiled when she looked up into his eyes. "I'm hungry. Do you think we can go ahead and get some food?"

"Of course we can, Short Stuff," Patrick smiled, as he placed his hand on the middle of her back, and he led her out of the exam room. "Do you want to go to Kelly's or the Metro Court?"

"Kelly's. I just don't feel like going ahead and having to bump into Carly. Ever since her miscarriage, she's been extra harsh," Robin said, as she pressed the down button on the elevator. "Thank you for defending me to Carly the other night to Carly."

"Robin, I am not going to allow anyone to hurt you or this baby," Patrick tells her, as he kisses the top of her head, and then leads her into the elevator with a smile plaguing at the corner of his lips. "Besides, I think more and more each day, I am realizing how much I want this."

Robin blushed, as she looked into his eyes, and she couldn't help but to be touched by his words. "Really Patrick? I mean, I really, really want to believe this, but it is just-- so hard. You were a man that didn't want a child."

"I know, but if any woman were to have a child that was biologically mine, I wouldn't want anyone but you to be the mother," Patrick admitted, as he stroked her cheek softly, and he continued to look into her eyes.

"Oh Patrick, I don't even know what to say," Robin blushed, as she touched her little bump on her belly, and she smiled softly. "I am so grateful to you, though. You have given me the greatest gift that I shall receive."

Patrick chuckled, as he kissed the top of her head again, and he pulled her into his chest. "Any time, Robin. I would do anything to bring a smile to your face."

"You keep telling yourself that. You are just so determined that we are having a son together," Robin said with a laugh, as she snuggled into his chest, smelling that cologne she desperately loved.

A few hours ago

Robin laughed, sitting in the living room of her apartment, as tea spurted out of her mouth, and she shook her head, as she looked away from him. He was only embarrassing himself and she just couldn't have any part in this. Patrick was just so justified that the two of them were having a son together.

"Please tell me you're kidding?" Robin begged, as she looked in between Patrick, Ian, and then to Andy, who was looking at Leo.

"Does it look like he's kidding?" Andy laughed, as he looked at Patrick, who had a smug grin on his face.

Robin sighed and she shook her head. "I cannot believe that you are having a bet that we're having a bet. Usually when bets go on, they bet on how big the baby's going on."

"The world cannot handle anymore Drake men," Leo said with a shake of his head. "I mean, look at Patrick here! All women will be hopeless if another one comes into this world."

"How much is the bet?" Robin asked, as curiosity shined inside of her eyes, and she placed her hands protectively over her belly. "I might want a part in it."

"It's a hundred dollars per head," Ian said, as he saw the look on Robin's face. "What?"

"A hundred freakin' dollars? Because of that, I really hope we are having a girl. It serves you right!" Robin pouted, as she looked at Patrick with a tiny glare in her eyes.

"Hey now," Patrick said, as he sat down next to her. "I will use the money I win to buy some baby things or even buy you some of your delicious cravings, okay?"

Robin eyed him but she finally gave in. "Fine."

Looking into her eyes, Patrick nodded his head, and then pressed the G on the elevator panel for the elevator to go the garage where his car was at.

"Just trust me. I wouldn't be so persistent if I didn't think that we were having a boy. I actually don't care what we have but a son would be really nice. He would have your eyes and he'd have my hair and dimples when he would smile," Patrick admitted with a sheepish grin on his face.

"You're unbelievable," Robin laughed, as she stared at him with a shrug of her shoulders.
