It was an early spring morning in California about 2 weeks after they found out about CJ's pregnancy and CJ and Danny had just woken up. As CJ groped around for her glasses, she knew something wasn't right. Finding her glasses CJ got out of bed and dashed to the bathroom. By the time she appeared Danny had got up and move across the room sitting on one of the armchairs in the room.

"Morning sickness?" Danny asked. CJ grunted in response and then walked over to the wardrobe to get out a blouse, skirt, and blazer before returning to the bathroom. "So, you told the guys yet?" Danny called towards the bathroom.

"No, I haven't told anyone. Have you?" CJ responded.

"No, I thought we weren't." Danny replied. As he heard CJ kneel down on the floor, pull her hair back and vomit. "You ok?" Danny called. CJ emerged from the bathroom and smiled wearily. "You know you're going to have to tell the guys eventually." Danny smiled.

"Oh really, I thought no one would notice." CJ said as she put her earrings in and turning horizontally towards the mirror to see the bulge in her stomach that was only just starting to form "Sorry," CJ said seeing Danny's hurt expression. "I'll the guys at 3 months, but Abbey, Kate and Carol, who I think already suspects something, I'll be telling tonight."

"Wait, tonight?" Danny confused.

"Yeah, tonight. Abbey, Kate and Carol, pizza and wine. I have to tell them why I'm not drinking. Anyway, I'm sure everything's going to be fine." CJ kissed Danny before leaving for work.

CJ spent her days working for Fank Hollis with Toby writing the occasional speech and Josh popping in occasionally. CJ kept glancing at the clock watching the seconds tick by before her next meeting. The morning sickness was horrible that day, the worst so far in fact so far, she had thrown up 12 times already, 9 of which at work, and it was only 11 o'clock. Toby was beginning to get suspicious, luckily Carol had taken a day to work exclusively with the press so it was only Margret manning the fort though if Carol was here, she would have been all over what was really going on. Toby walked towards CJ's office passing through where Margaret was working.

"Toby, if you're looking for CJ she's not in there." Margaret called.

"Oh, where is she?" Toby asked.

"Bathroom, I think. She'll be back in a minute if you want to wait."

"No, no. I'll come back later." Toby said leaving the office. He had been to CJ's office twice today both times he had been told that CJ was in the bathroom. Something was up and Toby was going to find out what.

Toby walked towards the bathroom and saw an intern walking out of the lady's room.

"Excuse me is anyone in there?" Toby said indicating he meant the lady's room.

"Only one woman, I think. Anyway, what's it to you?" The confused intern replied with the largest possible amount of sass back.

"Thanks. It's just a friend." Toby muttered before knocking on the bathroom door and calling "CJ, I know you're in there. I'm coming in." And Toby opened the door.

Toby looked around and saw only one stall door shut. "CJ?" Toby asked, "is that you?" Toby heard a gag through the door.

"CJ open the door!" Toby shouted hammering on the door. To his relief the latch on the door clicked open but the relief ended when he saw CJ.

"CJ," a distressed Toby said "CJ, what is it?" CJ got up from her kneeling position and walked over to the sinks to splash some water on her face.

"I'm fine Toby really." CJ said not looking at him.

"No, CJ, you're not fine. Why were you kneeling in front of the toilet? I heard you gag! You know if you're ill you can go home. There's no need to stay if you're ill." Toby said inelegantly for him.

"No, honest to God Toby. I'm not ill, per say." CJ replied still not looking at him. Toby and CJ left the lady's room and CJ started to walk towards her office perused closely by Toby.

"What do you mean you're not ill. You were…" CJ cut him off. They both stopped to say hello to Margaret before CJ turned back to Toby.

"My office, now." CJ glared at him as he walked past her and into her office and shut the door and all the blinds before turning back again.

"Ok, a couple things to bear in mind. First of all, you walked into a woman's bathroom which I'm sure we helped pass a law against back in the Bartlet days maybe before then. Second thing, you were spying on me. Now before we move on, I just want to ask you something." CJ paused and looked at Toby who was making his 'ok bring on the question' face "just how long have you been stalking me?" CJ asked with a sly smile.

"I wouldn't call it stalking." Toby said sheepishly.

"Really, oh really. Well, that's what I'd call it. So, what would you call it Toby? Oh yeah before I forget the third thing… I'm pregnant." Toby's face broke into a shocked smile as CJ's hands went to her abdomen.

"Your pregnant!" Toby yelled. CJ threw a panicked look at the door.

"Keep your voice down will you. I'm not announcing it yet I'm only at 10 weeks we're waiting till 3 months. Now back to the stalking thing."

"Oh right, well. I thought something was up earlier." Toby started.

"Really I thought Carol would notice but not you…" CJ as she heard Margaret shout.

"No, Josh you can't go in there." Just as Josh pulled open the door.

"Carol would notice what?" Josh said sauntering in.

"Honestly, Josh do you ever knock or listen to Margaret!" CJ glared.

"What's the big deal?" Josh innocently said.

"Well, I could have been sleeping or naked for all you knew!" CJ shouted and a smirk spread across Josh's face.

"You wouldn't be in your office naked with Toby. Unless I've missed something. Some huge blast from the past. So back to my question Carol would notice what?" Josh asked. CJ, who Josh had his back to, gave Toby a pleading look which he understood.

"Carol would notice the CJ hasn't eaten anything all day. CJ was just telling me that Danny was meeting her for lunch." Toby replied. CJ's face turned to a smile of gratitude as Toby walked round her desk to sit with CJ on the couch.

"Alright I'll leave you two to it." Josh said walking out shutting the door behind him. CJ took Toby's hands and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you. Thank you so much." CJ said tearing up. "I'm sorry I'm crying I'm hormonal and pregnant right now." Toby laughed at her words.

"It's fine. Just promise me to tell him at 3 months." Toby said.

"Why don't you meet us at the Red Room tonight at 7:30?" CJ asked.

"Who's us?" Toby asked.

"Oh right. Me, Carol, Kate, and Abbey." CJ smiled.

"Ok then. See you at the Red Room." Toby said.
