Enjoy.
"Wake up kiddos." A nurse giggled as she fixed Clark's IV first thing that morning. Alexis giggled as she looked up to see the nurse by the bed, and her hand was tightly gripped onto Clark's. She had fallen asleep next to him on the hospital bed. "Both of your parents called to check on you two. Someone should be here soon." Both kids nodded and smiled. The nurse glanced at them then left.
"Well—Our first time actually sleeping in the same bed for a whole night without our parents barging in." Clark chuckled as he kissed her cheek gently. They heavy bandage on his arm kept him from moving it. She giggled, "Yeah—In a hospital. How romantic." He shook his head, "When I get better we'll have our engagement night celebration." Alexis nodded, "Yay!" They both laughed as she climbed to the side of the bed and sat up. She glanced down to her hand—she was sixteen and engaged.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Jessica! Do you want any breakfast or not!?" Jules yelled from downstairs, as she still got no response. She marched upstairs and towards Jessica's room. "What is wrong with you? You've been hiding in here all morning." Jules asked as she went and sat down next to Jessica who wouldn't speak. She shook her head, "I—What if—nevermind." She threw back the covers and climbed out of bed, walking into the bathroom to get ready for the day—but slamming the door as she did. Jules sighed deeply and walked out, heading back downstairs and into Sam's arms.
"Sam—I seriously don't know what to do. Alexis is engaged at sixteen and Jessica is now sleeping with some guy because I told her to move on!"
Sam couldn't help but give a quick laugh. "Sweetheart, I think your main problem is that you don't want them to grow up and leave. They aren't even our real children—They have the right to do what they feel is right for them. We're just here to guide them." He kissed her forehead gently as she nodded. "Now—why don't you just leave Jessica to whatever she needs to do and we can go check on our little girl." Jules giggled as he took her hand and led her to the nursery. "See—I still think she has your eyes." Jules smiled, "But she has your big head, Sammy." He nodded, "Big head equals a big brain. She's going to be a smart ass like me too." They both laughed as Jules scooped her up in her arms. "I love Alexis and Jessica—And I am really, really going to miss them when they decide they're old enough to go off on their own. I actually don't know what I'm going to do without Jessica's help and having to chase Alexis across town. I'm going to be just so bored!" Sam chuckled as he stroked Jules' hair, "Just remember, this one is going to grow up too—." Jules glanced up at him and smiled, "Great—I cant wait."

"Hey guys." Sophie smiled as she came into the room. "Alexis, I talked to your mom this morning and she said you could stay as long as you wanted. I'm going to head off to work in a bit and Jules might stop by later. So how are you two?"
The both smiled. "I'm feeling a lot better—now." Clark spoke as he held onto Alexis' hand.
"I'm glad Clark—We were all really worried about you." She thought it would be best that Clark didn't know about what happened with Alexis. "And Alexis, how are you?"
"I'm doing good—now." She smiled over at Clark as he kissed her cheek.
Sophie smiled, "I still can't believe you two are engaged—but I mean—Neither of you have ever been this happy, have you?" They both shook their heads and smiled brightly at each other.

Jessica's phone rang.
"Hello?"
***
"Jess—I've been calling all morning? Is everything okay?" Jake asked in a concerned tone.
***
"What? Yeah—I'm fine, just tired."
***
"So—Do you want to get together today or what?"
***
She sighed, "Um—Well—My family is going through a lot right now. A lot is going on with Alexis. So if I get a free moment I'll call you."
***
"Oh—Okay—Well, I love you."
***
"I love you too Jake." She smiled and hung up the phone, dropping it on the floor and falling onto her bed.
--------
"Hey." Jules spoke suddenly from Jessica's doorway.
"Mom—I don't need some heart to heart discussion right now." Jessica sighed as she threw her hands to her face.
"I know—But I'm going to leave it at this—If you ever need to talk to me—I'm here." She smiled and left the room.
***************2 weeks later****************
"It's Clark's first day back at school!" Alexis said excitedly as she ran downstairs. It was the first day everything was finally getting back to normal. Jules was going to finally go back to work along with Sam, as Jessica would stay home and watch after Carly.
Jessica and Jules had stayed somewhat distant over the two weeks, just as Jessica avoided Jake too, and he noticed.
"I'm so glad he finally gets to be with me again! It's been so weird not having him there at school!" Alexis shouted as they made their way out to the car. "You told us sweetie." Jules joked as she and Sam laughed. "Mom! He's my fiancé—I want him to be with me and since none of our parents want us to live together yet, we just have to deal with spending every hour of the day running back and forth together."
"Should I tolerate my daughter saying she has a fiancé?" Sam asked jokingly. Jules shook her head, "I don't like the sound of it." She giggled.
Alexis shook her head and sighed back into the backseat of the car, "See you guys later." She said as she slammed the car door shut and walked towards the school to see Clark waiting for her.
"Is this even a bit strange to you?" Sam asked as they watched for a moment. Jules nodded, "But do we have a choice but to deal with it?" Sam shook his head and drove off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Come here Carly." Jessica smiled as she lifted her baby sister into her arms. "It's okay—don't cry." She rocked the small figure in her arms until she stopped crying. "There you go." She kissed Carly's cheek and walked through the house to sit down on the couch with her.
She knew she had to do something. Something she really didn't want to have to do.
"Hello?" She answered when her phone rang suddenly.
***
"Jessica—I was just wondering if you wanted to come over and hang out today? I haven't seen you in a few days and I just want to make sure we're okay." Jake started to get worried.
***
"I'm fine—We're fine. I have to—I have to take Carly to the doctor for my mom today."
***
He sighed, "Okay then—Well—I'll talk to you later. I love you."
***
"Okay—I love you too." She smiled and sighed as she dropped the phone beside her and scooped up Carly.
"We're going out today." She told her baby sister as she got her dressed and ready.
She knew exactly where she needed to go.
-----------------------------
"Fourth floor please." She stated as she got onto the elevator. She knew there was a clinic on the fourth floor. She had to figure out if her instincts were right.
A few people stared, as she was a teenage girl walking around with a newborn baby all alone. She could say it was her mother's all she wanted—but who was really going to ask?
The doctor sure did. That was before she returned to the room Jessica was in.
"You're pregnant." Was all she could say as Jessica melted to the floor—literally. She sat down with her knees balled up and her hands to her face as tears raced down her cheeks. The doctor knelt down beside her, "Is there anyone I should call to come pick you and your sister up? Your mother perhaps?" Jessica shook her head as she rose back to her feet. "No—no I'm fine." She nodded and took Carly's carrier to her hand. "You sure? You can always call whoever you need to—."
"I'm fine." Jessica swatted her way out of the room. She walked up to the desk to pay as she looked around at the others in the waiting room, staring at her as tears flooded from her eyes. She glanced down at Carly in her carrier and stroked her cheek—there was no way she could do this.
She bulleted down the hall and to the elevators, throwing herself against the wall before she even got there, as she burst into sobs and tears, others staring as did so.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"Spike—I seriously don't understand how we've been on shift for only three hours and you have managed to blow up something!" Jules giggled as she and the rest of the team walked into the busy hospital's lobby, heading towards the emergency room. Spike's face was covered in gauze thanks to a little handy work of bandaging done by Wordy.
"It's not my fault! I was teaching Babycakes the differences in grenades—I don't think she understood!" Spike yelled, causing the other patients to stare at the group of armed officers.
"No—I think she was just trying to get you to shut up." Jules sniped as the group walked over to the elevators.
"Yeah—I agree Spike. You were getting pretty annoying with teaching her how to say 'I love you Spike'." Greg joked.
"What!?" I wanted her to sound more authentic!" He defended.
Ed laughed, "Than what?"
"Normal robots Ed! Duh. She's not a robot—She's his girlfriend." Lou joked causing Spike to turn as comfortably as he could without whacking all of them up the side of their faces.
"Aw man—I should have known. By the way Wordy—Nice bandaging skills. Did Shelley teach you that one too?" Ed commented.
Wordy rolled his eyes as the doors finally opened.
A whole group piled out of the elevator. An old lady in a wheelchair, a woman being pushed in a wheelchair by a man, a few nurses, a girl with the collar of her trench coat thrown up to conceal her face as she carried a baby in a carrier, and a man on crutches.
Jules paused as the girl passed by her quickly. That was her baby in the carrier and she knew it.
"Jessica—?" Jules called out as the girl all of a sudden froze. The rest of the team piled onto the elevator as Jules stood outside of it. "You guys go ahead, I'll be right there." She told them. Sam glanced out at her, "Jules?" She shook her head and walked away as the elevator doors closed.
"Jessica—Why are you and Carly here?" Jules asked, as the girl had not turned around yet. "Jessica! Why the hell are you and my baby at a hospital?" She didn't care who started—It wasn't like people weren't already staring at her. She was a short woman covered in gear and guns, nothing very normal about that. The girl slowly looked down and turned gradually, revealing her red, tear covered face. "Sweetie—What's wrong?" Jules had been trying to fish and answer from her for weeks as to why she was so upset. Jessica shook her head and continued to walk right out of the lobby and into the parking lot. Jules chased after her.
She jerked Jessica's arm, causing her to stop immediately. "What is wrong Jessica? I know I said I would give you some space because you were older and all that, but come on—You're at a hospital—I as your mother need to know these things!" Jessica shook her head again as she was then jerked towards the team's trucks that were pulled into the side of the parking lot.
"You're going to tell me what is going on—right here, right now. I'm not going to let you go trailing around the city with my few month old baby without telling me where and why you are somewhere. Why—?"
"You can have your baby—Because in nine months I'm going to have to take care of my own." She handed Jules the carrier and just as she was going to run off, Jules grabbed her wrist. "You're—you're pregnant?" She asked, not even believing what she had heard. She opened the door to she and Sam's truck and placed Carly's carrier in the front seat so that she would be warmer. Jules wrapped her arms tightly around Jessica as her daughter burst into tears.
"Mom—I'm so sorry—I really am." Jessica cried as she had her chin on Jules's shoulder.
Jules stared at her for a moment as tears welled in her eyes, "Jessica—Why?" Was all she could ask as she pulled her back into a tight hug, closing her eyes to let a tear escape down her cheek as she fell into the full impact of the moment.
