Mac made her way to the office and straight into Will's office, which was empty. She saw Jim and asked if he'd seen Will, he hadn't.

Mac put her things away and called his cell. "Hey, sweetheart."

"Hi. Where are you?"

"Charlie and I are talking, I'll be down in a few minutes and we can go get some coffee."

"See you in a few."

Will showed up about fifteen minutes later and stuck his head in her office. "Ready to go get some coffee and maybe a pastry?"

She smiled at him and said, "sure."

When they were out on the street he asked, "how was the doctor's office? Did they give you a shot?"

"No, no shot."

"Why not?"

She wasn't sure how to tell him this. She took his arm and pulled him to the edge of the sidewalk, out of the way, where they could talk facing one another. "You're freaking me out, Mac. What's wrong?"

"I'm pregnant."

"You're what?"

She smiled at him. "Pregnant."

He looked as if he was about to pass out. "Are you all right?"

"Pregnant."

"Yes, Will, I'm pregnant."

"Wow," he said and pulled her into his arms. "Do we know how far along?"

"We'll know more after tomorrow's ultrasound. I wanted you there, so they scheduled it for tomorrow morning, early."

"Another baby," he said touching her stomach. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

"Are you okay," he asked, "nothing else is wrong?"

"No, everything else is fine. They did labs when I thought I was getting what the boys had just to make sure."

He tucked a bit of hair behind her ear and kissed her. "You had no idea?"

"None, it was a total shock. A good shock, but nonetheless a shock."

He took her hand and started them on their walk again to the coffee shop. "Are you hungry?" he asked pulling her to his side and wrapping his arm around her. Her arm went around his waist and she rested her head on his shoulder.

"Not really. I could get some fruit and yogurt."

When they arrived at the coffee shop he ordered their beverages and her fruit and yogurt. They took a table in the back and held hands while they waited for their order. They weren't talking, just being quiet together. When their order was called he went and got it, placing her fruit and yogurt down in front of her along with her coffee.

"Do you want to share?" she offered, holding a spoonful of yogurt and a strawberry up to him.

"Thanks," he said, letting her feed him.

"More," she asked.

He shook his head, "I'm good, thanks."

She ate the fruit and yogurt while he watched her. He couldn't believe they were having another baby.

"Are you all right?" she asked.

"Just letting it sink in, you know?"

She smiled and nodded. "We need to get back."

"It's going to be hard to concentrate today."

"I know. I feel like going home and just lying in bed with you cuddled up and talking."

"That sounds perfect and we will do that tonight. No packing or worrying about moving. Tonight is about us and this new little person."

"Agreed."

Fortunately it was a slow news day. Will kept coming into her office for no reason other than to check on her. She'd forgotten how protective he'd gotten of her when she was pregnant before. He wasn't stifling, but showing how much he cared. The broadcast went off without a hitch and Lonny took them home.

Kate was up with David when they came home. "Hi," she said.

"Hey," Will said. "Is David okay?"

Mac hugged her and took David from her. "Hi, baby," she cooed and kissed his head.

"He woke up a few minutes ago upset so we were looking at all the lights."

"Did Coop wake up?" Will asked.

"Sound asleep," she said with a smile.

"Want me to put him back down?" Kate asked.

"We'll put him down and go see Cooper," Mac said.

"Okay, good night."

They both replied, "good night."

"Hey little man," Will said taking David from Mac and kissing him. Together they walked to the nursery and saw Cooper awake, playing with his feet.

"Are you playing, sweetie?" Mac said picking him up. She sat in one of the rocking chairs and rocked Cooper. Will sat next to her with David, who was already almost asleep and after a few moments of rocking he was sound asleep. Will placed him in his crib and covered him with his blanket.

"Sleep well, buddy."

Mac got up and put Cooper to bed and kissed both boys and pulled Will from their room. "I was promised cuddling," she teased.

"Cuddling you will get. Go change and I'll lock up. You want anything?"

"Some water, please."

When he returned she was in bed in one of his dress shirts with the sleeves rolled up. "You look great."

"Thanks," she said with a smile.

He placed her water on her nightstand and climbed into bed. She leaned back against him and he wrapped her in his arms.

"What time is our appointment?"

"At eight."

His hand moved down to her abdomen and caressed gently. "I can't believe we're having another baby."

"I know. I had no idea I'd ever be pregnant again. I'm thrilled, don't get me wrong, I just had no idea."

"I agree, it's a shock but a great one. Not twins again," he asked just realizing it was a possibility.

"We'll find out tomorrow."

They stayed cuddled up and fell asleep that way. A baby crying woke them about six the next morning. They heard Kate through the baby monitor talking to the boys. Mac stretched and pulled the covers over herself. "Do you want to sleep some more," Will asked.

"No, I'm getting up. I want to see Cooper and David and feed them before we leave."

"Why don't you go do that and I'll fix us all some breakfast."

"That sounds great. Will you make me an omelet?"

"Anything you want, sweetheart," he said. "How are you feeling?"

"Good. No nausea."

"I'll see you in the kitchen."

Mac got up and went into the nursery. Kate was changing Cooper and putting on a clean outfit. "Good morning."

"Morning, Mac."

"Have you changed David?"

"He's up next. We take turns going first," she explained.

"Cute. I'll change him. Go ahead and take Cooper to the kitchen. Will is making us breakfast. I'll be right there."

"Good morning, David," Mac said as she changed him and put him in clean clothes. She carried him to the kitchen and sat with him on her favorite stool. Will fixed each boy a bottle and handed the bottles to Mac and Kate along with a cloth.

Mac was holding David's bottle for him and he took it himself. "Will," Mac said, trying to get his attention.

When he turned around he saw David holding his own bottle. "Look at you big man. Does your brother do that, too?" he asked.

"No, this is the first time I've seen him do that," Kate explained. "You're getting to be a big boy."

Mac smiled at Will. He kissed her and then David and went back to making their breakfast. "What would you like, Kate?"

"Omelet, please. No mushrooms."

"You've got it." The babies finished their bottles and Will finished their breakfast.

After they all finished their breakfast Kate took the babies back to their room to play while Mac and Will got ready to go. They shared a shower and were waiting when the doorman called up for Lonny.

Lonny walked them up to Mac's doctor's office and sat in the waiting room, looking completely out of place. Mac and Will were taken back to an exam room and Mac was told to go ahead and change.

When she came out in the exam gown she sat on the table and watched Will, staring out at the city. "What are you thinking about?"

He turned around and smiled at her. "How lucky we are and how much I love you."

"I love you, too."

He came to stand in front of her and took her in his arms. That's how Mac's doctor found them when she knocked and came into the room. "Are we ready to check out the pregnancy?"

"We are," Mac said, scooting back on the table.

"I know we did blood work yesterday, but I'm going to have more drawn today for base line comparisons. We'll get a urine sample and do the ultrasound. Do you have any idea how far along you might be, Mac?"

"No, sorry. I've not been back on a normal cycle since having the boys."

"That's okay, we can tell from the ultrasound. I'm going to have one of the techs come in and draw blood and I'll be back in a few minutes."

When the doctor came back in she had Mac lay back on the table and put her feet in the stirrups and inserted the probe. Will was up by Mac's head and they were both looking at a monitor.

"Ready?" the doctor asked.

"Yes," Mac answered.

A picture appeared and the doctor pointed out the baby. "Just one this time," the doctor said. The doctor took measurements and explained that she thought the baby was seven weeks. "We're going to see if we can hear the heartbeat, but we may not be able to this early." After a few seconds they all heard the whish of the heartbeat. "Sounds great, guys. Congratulations."

"Thanks," Will answered. Mac was wiping the tears from her cheeks. He leaned down and kissed her temple. "I love you, Mac."

She turned to see him and said, "I love you, too."

"Mac you know you're at a higher risk due to your age, but you had a successful pregnancy last time. I'm going to schedule you at every three weeks for a while. If you need to see me sooner, just call and I'll work you in, but enjoy this time and let me know if you have any questions."

"Thank you. I'll certainly call if I need to and I'll see you in three weeks."

The doctor left and Mac went to change. She came out and was pulled into Will's arms. "That was amazing. Is it bad that I'm excited it's not twins."

She smiled at him. "Not at all. I'm not sure how we'd do with another set of twins, I can't imagine. One, we can handle."

"Are we going to wait to tell people until after the first trimester?"

"I think so. We've got to get to the office."

"Okay, we're going, even though I want to take you home and spend the day in bed with you."

"That sounds perfect. At least tomorrow is Saturday and we can stay in with the boys. We've got to pack some, too, if we're going to move next week."

"How about you tell me what to pack and I'll pack?" he suggested.

She smiled. "We'll talk about it."

He knew he wasn't going to win but if he could help and take any of the stress off of her he was going to do so.

It was busier than normal in the newsroom, so Will wasn't able to see Mac as much as he'd like, but he did make sure she had snacks throughout the day. He would sneak into her office while she was out and leave fruit and other treats.

On their way home she thanked him for all of her snacks. He was taking care of her the best way he knew how and she loved him for everything he did. When they got home everyone was asleep. They checked on both boys and went to change.

"Are you hungry?" he asked from the bathroom.

"A little. I'm going to get a yogurt, do you want anything?"

"I'll come with you, I think there are some leftovers."
