Flack paced the waiting room nervously. The emergency room staff had whisked Lindsay away quickly and not let him go back with her. They hadn't told him anything except for asking a few questions. Hawkes had gone to get coffee for them and had assured Flack that he didn't think it was life-threatening. The rest of the team was dealing with the aftermath at the theater but had made Flack promise to call with an update as soon as he got one. It was times like these that really made Flack wish he'd stuck with being a professional hockey player. It'd been a nice life, playing his favorite sport, earning lots of money and little stress.

"Detective Flack?", called a young nurse in red scrubs that Flack recognized as having been with Lindsay. It was actually kind of funny how she looked like Lindsay, just with a New York accent.

"Yes! How is she? Can I see her? Is she awake?" asked Flack, his voice tight and his emotions on edge.

"Detective Monroe will be fine. The stress of the experience and exhaustion caused her to faint. The slight bleeding is somewhat common in pregnancies. Nothing to worry about, the baby is fine. Just make sure she gets plenty of rest and good nutrition. We'll get ya some pamphlets on that. She is sleeping now in room 213. When she wakes up, you can take her home." said the nurse cheerfully, her brown eyes portraying warmth and kindness.

Flack sighed in relief, "I'll do all that. Thank you so much."

As the nurse walked away, Flack thought to himself, 'baby? She didn't tell me she was pregnant.'

Wandering down the hall to room 213, Flack pondered the thought of being a father. He was sure he was the father. Lindsay wouldn't hurt a fly and a few weeks ago they'd thrown caution to the wind after a tough case. This was exciting stuff for him. The one woman in the world he wanted to spend the rest of his life with and she was going to bear him a child. If it was possible to fall more in love with someone, Flack was sure he was falling more in love with Lindsay Monroe. That petite little woman had one of the toughest NYPD officers, wrapped around her little pinkie and she probably knew it too.

He grasped her hand as he sat next to her bed. He loved watching her sleep. She looked so peaceful and happy when she slept, you couldn't tell that all day long she dealt with the most horrible occurrences the world had to offer. After an hour or so and after Hawkes had left to go help at the theater promising to pass on the update, Lindsay woke up.

"Hey Linny. Welcome back.", said Flack, his trademark boyish grin plastered on his face.

"Donnie.", whispered Lindsay with a sigh.

"You gotta quit scaring me like this baby.", said Flack.

"Baby! Is the baby okay? I never got to tell you! Oh Donnie, I'm so sorry!" said Lindsay, in a panic, her words tumbling out all at once.

"Shh. Linny, baby, it's alright. The nurse told me you were pregnant and the baby is fine. She also told me to make you sleep and eat right. Everything is okay. You're all right, perfectly normal." said Flack, stroking the skin on the back of her hand.

Lindsay breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. I"m really sorry. I was going to tell you tonight after the movie. Think you could take me home? I need a cuddle"

Flack looked deep in thought for a second. "Oh I suppose I could. If I have to."

Lindsay rolled her eyes and then looked at him lovingly, "I love you Donnie."

"I love you too Linny, more than anything. I love you too, Peanut!" replied Flack, laying his head on Lindsay's stomach, as if talking to the baby.

The nurses shook their heads as they walked down the hall. They never could understand the young couples that came through here but they were glad to see the love they shared. It was obviously one in a million.

A/N: Thanks for reading my story! I hope you enjoyed it. In my original dream my ex-boyfriend was actually shot and killed, which I'm glad it never actually came true. With all the bad things that the team has been through, I felt that a happy ending for once was deserved. Let me know if you want to see a continuation of this thought line.
