Chapter 16

"Hey, Toby." Spencer greeted as she entered her bedroom. "Do you want to go out or stay in?" She asked.

Toby got up from Spencer's bed, where he was reading. "I don't think staying in will be too bad. It will take less time and be more private." He said.

"Alright! Does Chinese sound okay?" Spencer asked.

"Chinese sounds perfect." Toby answered.

"Good, I'll go get the menu so we can order." Spencer said.

Forty minutes later, the pair was opening their food containers and sitting down at the kitchen island. When they were settled down at the table they looked up at each other and smiled.

"So how was your day?" Toby asked.

"It was good. How was yours?" Spencer shot the question back at him.

"Fine. But I'd much rather talk about your day." Toby said.

"Well, what part of it would you like to talk about?" Spencer asked him.

"Hmm. How was your talk with Melissa?" Toby asked.

"It was actually really really nice. Melissa has finally come around to me being her sister and not her competition." Spencer said. "And she wasn't disappointed in me at all. She even booked me an appointment, which brings up a question for you. Do you want to come to my first appointment? Melissa said it's fairly boring and that you'd probably rather just come to the ultrasounds anyway."

"If you want me there, I'll go. If you don't think it's necessary, that's fine too. Whatever you want, Spencer." Toby said.

"Well, I think you should wait for the ultrasounds… This appointment includes a lot of… physical examination… and I know you've seen me… naked… before, but since neither of us really remember that, it might be kind of awkward. I mean, you could always sit out in the waiting room, but what's the point of that?" Spencer rambled on.

"It's fine, I'll skip this one." Toby said. "You need to be comfortable."

She gave him a little grin. He sent a smile right back to her.

"Was school okay?" He asked her.

She shrugged. "School was fine… Normal. I haven't had morning sickness in school that badly so far. If I have to puke, it's usually during lunch."

"Well that's good." Toby commented. "At least you don't have to run out of class."

She replied to his observation. "It's good for now… When people start to see that I'm showing, it will be another story."

Toby got a confused look on his face. "Wait. You're showing?" Toby asked, almost in disbelief. She only could have been a few weeks pregnant. She shouldn't be showing.

She exhaled forcefully before she said, "Yeah. No one can see when I've got clothes on, but there's a bump there." Spencer said.

"Are you sure?" Toby asked.

"Yeah. I'll show you after dinner." Spencer said.

"Is that okay with you?" Toby asked. He was cautious about invading her privacy or making her feel uncomfortable. Sure, they had been intimate one night, but they didn't do it consciously.

"Of course, Toby. It's fine with me." Spencer said. Even she realized that it may be a little awkward. She had agreed to show him part of her body that she hadn't remembered showing him before, and he didn't remember seeing. This was all new to them.

"In that case, I'd love that." Toby said.

For the rest of their dinner, Spencer and Toby sat in silence. They were silent towards each other, but the inside of both of their minds was loud in the jumble of several thoughts. There was much to think about.

When they had finished eating, they both stared at their plates for a short amount of time, before Spencer got up and started clearing the table and throwing out their empty containers. Toby quickly got up to help when he realized what she was doing. She shouldn't have to clean up, should she?

"Spence, I'll finish up. You shouldn't have to clean. Go sit down." Toby said to Spencer.

"Why shouldn't I have to clean?" She said, continuing to put containers in the garbage.

Toby answered. "You don't need to clean because I'm taking care of you, and I'm perfectly capable of cleaning up a few containers and a couple of forks."

Spencer rinsed the soap off the last dirty fork and dried it before putting it back in the drawer. "Well, it's already done." She said. She walked over to Toby and took his hands in hers. "My room?" She asked. It didn't require an answer. She led him up the stairs and sat on the edge of her bed, facing the window. She patted the empty space next to her, motioning for Toby to sit. He sat, and she looked at him with certain happiness in her eyes. She looked around her, making sure that her bedroom door was closed and her curtains were pulled down. She was so worried that someone who wasn't supposed to know about her pregnancy would find out.

She looked at him and bit her lip in nervousness. As she slid off of the bed, Toby looked straight at her, and focused on nothing else. She started to pull up her dress. No words were spoken. She held her dress up by holding what got in her way down between her chin and her chest. At this point, only the top half of her midsection was revealed. The bottom half was concealed by her leggings. As she attempted to take hold of the band of her leggings and pull them down, her dress slipped from her chin and got in her way.

Toby opened his mouth. "Would you like me to hold it up for you?" He asked sincerely.

"Sure." Spencer said. She thought to herself. Let's just make this as unawkward as possible. He got off the bed and picked up her dress, holding it from behind. She glanced at him, and then looked down so she could slide down her leggings. She grabbed the elastic band holding the fabric on her hips and stretched it so she could move them down. She pulled them down a few inches under her belly button, and just under the tiny bump that she discovered only the day before. Toby continued to hold up her dress, and Spencer continued to hold down her tights. She turned her head to look at him, and he looked at her. She nodded. Toby held the dress with his right hand, and shifted around Spencer's left side to get a look. She took his pointer finger with her right hand, and held it between the pad of her thumb and the side of her curled first finger. Slowly, she ran Toby's finger over the small bulge. When she gently let go, she found his hand still there on her soft skin. His rough hands circled the little oval bump, until he pulled away, only to grab her chin, turn her head toward his, and kiss her.

After what seemed like a minute or two, he pulled away and whispered "I don't want to hold this dress up anymore." He pulled her dress over her head, and she didn't resist.

"And I'm done holding these tights." She muttered under her breath, as she stripped of her leggings.

Her clothes were on the floor, and she stood almost bare in just her bra and panties.

Toby spoke. "You know, the only reason we can see and feel that little bump there, is because you, my love, are so skinny."

Spencer chuckled and said, "Or maybe our baby's six pack is already growing!" She winked.

Toby lifted her up and put her on the bed, as gently as he could. Spencer was not only the most fragile woman he had ever met, but she was the most important person in his life. He was extremely careful not to hurt what was most precious to him. He climbed over her onto the bed and lay down next to her. Her breathing was quick and very noticeable.

"Are you okay?" He asked, concerned.

"Why wouldn't I be?" She answered.

"Then why are you breathing like that?" He asked again.

"Because I'm excited." She confessed with a smile.

"And what are you so excited about?"

"You sure ask a lot of questions." Spencer commented.

"Yes, I do. Now answer my question." Toby said.

"I'm excited because I'm with you." Spencer said, dramatically.

"I see." Toby said. "I feel the same way."

Spencer laughed. "So, you're excited because you're with yourself?"

"No! I didn't mean that! I meant that you make me excited. Our baby makes me excited. Us being a family makes me excited." He answered, moving closer to Spencer's almost naked body.

"That makes me excited too. We're the best family ever." Spencer said.

"We are." Toby whispered before shrugging down on the bed, towards Spencer's abdomen. He leaned over her belly and softly said, "Hi baby. I'm your daddy. Your mommy and I are going to take really good care of you, and we'll be an amazing family. We love you so much, already." He looked up and there were tears in Spencer's eyes. But Toby could tell that those tears were happy tears. He gently kissed the tiny bump, causing Spencer to let out a little giggle because it tickled her. Toby moved back up the bed, touched the tip of his nose to the tip of Spencer's, looked straight into her eyes and said, "I think it's a girl."

Spencer bit her bottom lip as she grinned at Toby. "And why do you think that?" She asked him.

"Because I can feel it." Toby said.

"You can't feel anything! You're not the one that's pregnant, now are you?" Spencer said playfully.

"No, I'm not pregnant, but something in my heart tells me that there's a little girl in there."

"We'll just have to wait and see then, won't we." Spencer said.

"Yes, we will." Toby replied.

After that, Spencer retrieved Toby's old t-shirt from the drawer and put it on. Toby put on a pair of pajamas that he had brought for himself. They got back into Spencer's comfy bed, pulled the covers up over them, and held onto each other until they drifted off to sleep.


How was it? Ahhh I can't wait to see how you all react! I read my own story over and over sometimes because it's like a fantasy world away from the reality of Toby being on the A Team. :( See you all soon! Don't forget to drop a review. They really make me smile :)
