Check back to chapter three if you haven't read the rewritten version yet. You will be able to understand this chapter more. Not really, but I advise that you do to understand the story after this chapter.
Story time…
One Week Later"I'm a mother." Dana said quietly as she hugged a Teddy bear that she had just recently bought. It really had come as a shock to her that she was pregnant. It was only one night. Of course she knew that that was all it took, but she didn't think that it would happen to her. No one thinks that something like this would happen to them if it were unplanned. Dana wanted kids, but she also wanted to be an established relationship, which she just got out of by the way.
Confliction was currently going through her mind as she contemplated what to do. Should she go and tell Fox Mulder FBI that she was carrying his child or raise the baby alone? It seemed as if Mulder already had a lot going on in his life from what he told her and to add another person to it would be chaotic. But, then again, this is his child and he has a right to know. What would she look like though? They just shared one night and he would probably think she came forward about the baby for child support.
But, truthfully Dana felt cold and alone like her room. She felt as if the only choice was to raise the child alone and that was what she decided to do. There was enough money saved up and Dana's bank account to support a child and she knew she would get help if she needed some from friends or family. Mr. FBI had his own problems and troubles to worry about without adding another child to it.
Everyone was downstairs waiting for Dana. She told them earlier that she had an announcement to make. They probably thought that maybe she was going to get out more, date, perhaps even move out, but nope, she was pregnant. Her parents and Bill were going to love this…Charlie was just going to be amused by it. And Missy wasn't here to find out. She got out of the bed and kept her covered wrapped around her as she exited her bedroom.
"Dana, there you are." Maggie said as she smiled at her daughter who was making her way into the dining room. The family minus Dana was currently playing scramble and Bill Sr. was kicking butt as usual, but if Dana were playing it would have been her.
"Hey Starbuck, you want to join in this game and show the rest how to really play?" Her father smiled as she took the bag and began to look through it for letters. He knew that she knew the rules, so he looked at her curiously as she searched for letters. She had her thinking face on, which was quite on unusual because she never wore that unless it was some riddle that she was trying to solve. Words gave came naturally to her and he certainly knew that his daughter wasn't a cheater.
It took a minute or so, but Dana found her letters and put them on the board. "Read it." She said quietly, and then left. They looked as her as she exited, and then looked down at the board. Charlie read the board aloud.
"I'm pregnant." Everyone looked at Bill Sr. who currently had turned a bright red, but otherwise wore an expressionless face.

My first time writing a short chapter/filler, yay me! So, how do you like those two chapters? Well, I've decided that were going to skip a year because there is nothing for me to do with the in between time, but we're still going to have that dinner as planned. Hooray! I either want a one year old or a five year old because they bring so much drama. Don't get me wrong, the pregnancy and carrying is excited, but the hard core proof that is undeniable, come on you can't beat that. So vote today because those who do is who I am going with and that is when I'm starting on the next chapter. Doesn't give you much time, now does it? But, that is when I'm spitting out that chapters, so do you want some or no chapters? I think some. And I'll spoil you too. The baby is going to be a boy and his middle name is going to be Fox, so whoever comes up with the most creative first name using Fox is whose name I am using next chapter. A lot of reading participation going on here, isn't there?
