Hi everyone I am sorry for the lack of updates but I haven't been all that well lately but I am much better and I hope to updating more often and I must say I am sorry if this chapter sucks but after being ill and getting back into it was hard and I know this story is sort of slow but I think it is important to have Megan and Peter moments before the baby does arrive. But I hope you all will enjoy.
Thank you to all my faithful readers and for all of you for adding this story to your favourites and updates.
Peter held on to Megan as they swayed to the music with Megan's head resting on Peters shoulder not caring if anyone was watching them.
"So having a good time "Peter asked casually as he knew it would annoy Megan asking that as she clearly tried at every attempt go get out of this.
"Wow, yeah it's so much fun" Megan said sarcastically as she rolled her eyes in annoyance.
After what seemed like a life time they both decided to go and sit down as Megan's feet were killing her as they having been swelling due to pregnancy and she found it hard to wear her famous killer heels but she forced her feet in to them none the less.
Megan's mother made her way over to where her daughter and her hot new boyfriend were sitting.
"I am so glad that you both could come tonight and what a great night it has been don't you think?" her mother asked as she sat down and took hold of Megan's hand and gave it a squeeze which took Megan by surprise as her mother never did anything like that not even when she was younger.
"Well it has been nice talking to you mother but if you don't mind me and peter are going now and thank you for such a great time "Megan made sure that she sounded super sarcastic on the last couple of words in her conversation.
"Thank you Joan and it was nice seeing you again" Peter smiled sweetly and followed Megan.
Megan and Peter never gave Joan time to reply as they were half way out the door.
"What the hell was that back there Megan with your mother "
"Oh , she was never like that when I was young and she was sorter freaking me out acting like she cares which she clearly doesn't as she always does these snide little digs"
The ride home was weird as they both were rather quiet and did not say much to each other but eventually Peter did break the silence.
"Everything alright Megan you've been rather quiet since we left the party"
"Yeah, I'm fine and I'm sorry for acting like a bitch earlier but I was just freaked out by my mother's actions"
Later that night Megan and Peter just went to bed in silence not saying a word to each other but just holding each other as close as they can and they fell asleep wrapped in each other's arms.
A few days later Megan made an appointment at her local doctor whilst she was at work as the doctor recommended her to have her first scan.
After making the appointment she hung up and carried on working on closing the new case that arrived a couple of days ago. Megan sighed with relief as she closed the file and took a few moments to herself and shut her eyes.
Kate walked in to Megan's office and cleared her throat to get her attention as Megan clearly did not hear her enter her office or the knock that she did before entering.
"Oh, god sorry Kate, just taking a few moments to myself"
"That's alright Megan but I heard you were looking for me hence why I am here" Kate said with a small smile.
"Right, yes, well I have an appointment for a scan today at 5ish and I know it's kind of short notice but ..." Megan was cut off at that point by Kate
"Yes, go and I take it peter will be with you too of course"
"Yes" Megan said rather shyly.
"Oh gosh I haven't even told peter yet "Megan quickly stood up and rushed out the door as fast as she could go.
Kate shook her head and laughed a little at Megan's forgetfulness and walked back to her office with her heels clicking on the polished floor.
Megan finally found peter sitting down and having a coffee with Curtis and Ethan who all stopped and stood up expecting a lecture from Megan.
"What have we done wrong now "said Curtis folding his arms in front of him and stood eyeing Megan closely
"I don't need you , I need to speak to peter" Megan grabbed Peters arm and pulled him away from Curtis and Ethan who sat back down and carried on like nothing had happened.
"Hey, what's going on is everything alright?" Peter asked in a rather concerned manner.
"Oh, no everything is fine but we do have a scan today at 5"
"You're kidding right?"
"What, no I am not kidding and I know it is rather short notice and if you don't want to be there then fine". Megan snapped
"I was going out with the guys tonight at 5 after work but this is much more important and you are more important than that" Peter took told of Megan's hand and held it tight as a supportive gesture.
"We have our blessing from Kate by the way" Megan said casually as she tip toed and kissed Peter on the cheek as a thank you gesture.
Half 4 that afternoon Megan was busy deep into the guts of their latest body on the slab that she did not realise the time so when she did look up to check the time she cursed to herself.
"god damn it, Ethan can you take over please and when you are done can you report to Kate, thanks "Megan pulled off the plastic apron and chucked into the nearest bin and rushed over to find peter waiting at the lift checking his watch and pacing backwards and forwards nervously.
"Megan what the hell, where have you been "
"Sorry, I kind of lost track of time"
"Ok, whatever right lets go" and with that they entered the elevator.
They finally made it with 5 minutes to spare so they checked in with the receptionist and took at seat and waited and looked round at their surroundings and the people who were waiting to see the doctor.
Peter took hold of Megan's hand and held it until they heard Megan being called
"Megan Hunt please" the small nurse called and smiled at them both and led them to the door that was open.
"Hi Megan, Sorry let me correct that Dr Megan Hunt I am Dr Kennedy and this is ...?" The doctor said casually as she looked at Peter.
"Hi I'm Peter Dunlop, Megan's boyfriend "
"Great to meet you, I take it you are the farther yes"
"Yes, he is the Father" Megan smiled at peter as she answered the doctor
"Great ok, let's get started, if you could lie down on the bed please"
Megan carefully lay on the bed and Peter walked over to her side and held her hand .peter knew that Megan had been through this but this was going to be special as it was Peter and Megan and not Todd and Megan.
"Ok, I'm just going to lift your top a bit and this may feel cold "said doctor Kennedy as she placed the cold clear gel on Megan's little bump.
Doctor Kennedy slid the scanner over Megan's stomach until she found the right place and there on the screen was this tiny little person starting to grow.
"Wow ... Is ... that..." peter pointed in shock at the screen after finally realising that there was his Daughter or son who will be calling him Dad and who he will protect all his life and will not let down like his biological parents did to him all those years ago.
"Yes, that is you healthy baby and everything is just fine, perfect size and completely comfy in there" joked Doctor Kennedy
For once in Megan's life she didn't know what to say but instead she just stared at the screen at the little surprise with tears sliding down her face making black mascara tracks down her cheeks.
Megan eventually turned to face peter to see that he was also crying tears of joy. Peter bent down and place sort and tender kiss on Megan's lips. Peter said to Megan "I love you Megan Hunt with all my heart and I love our little miracle too"
Turned away from peter and looked at the screen and let the tears of joy fall silently down her face.
