It had taken Walter almost 7 months to finally admit to himself, and Paige, that he actually had feelings. The confession was an awkward one, but Paige looked past that and saw the love Walter held for her. The candle-lot dinner on the rooftop outshone the pro's and con's list he made for their possible relationship.

It had been just over a month since that moment and both Walter and Paige has managed to keep their relationship a secret from the rest of Scorpion, even Toby, the eagle-eyed behaviourist. The private 'talks' they had in the kitchen, the sneaking off to his room in the loft, the smouldering glances and quiet whispers all went completely unnoticed by the team. Even Ralph was blissfully unaware, although he did know that Walter came for dinner every other night. What he didn't know was that Walter stayed over them nights and snuck home early in the morning, because let's be honest, he is still a man and Paige is a beautiful woman. So it was surprising when the team didn't find out from the sneaky kitchen make outs, but in fact from the curiosity of the innocent young boy eating his breakfast with the team, at the garage.

"Mom," Ralph started, "What's sex?"

There was mixed reactions to this question. Sylvester, ever the germophobe, started muttering about how unhygienic sexual intercourse was and that's when using protection. Happy was perplexed, acting like she didn't hear a thing and carried on reading her book from Toby. The behaviourist's reaction was a short burst of laughter, followed by

"something you'll come to love, kid," which indeed earned him a glare from Paige. The woman in question became very flustered and confused as to what brought the question into her young son's mind. He was only 9 years old for Pete's sake. She was too busy trying to think of a truthful, yet censored answer that she didn't notice her boyfriend choking on his coffee next to her. I mean, he shouldn't be surprised, all boys started wondering at that age, genius or not. But the fact that it came from his girlfriends son, shocked him to no end.

"It's what two adults do if they love each other very much, and decide they might want to have babies," Paige's answer was somewhat truthful, there was a baby-making element within sex some of the time.

"Is that what you and Walter do when he stays over at our apartment?" The question was yet another curious one from the tiny genius yet caused a bigger uproar this time.

Sylvester was completely speechless and would've fallen off his chair, if Happy hadn't have caught him. The mechanical engineer let the surprise of Walter and Paige being physical show on her face for a split-second, before she went back to acting perplexed. This time, both Walter and Toby choked on their coffee. The shrink should have seen it coming, hell he now remembers all the times they both 'coincidentally' disappeared simultaneously. He feels like a failure in the psychoanalysis world now, and made a mental promise to watch for further signs of the couple from now on.

"No baby, me and Walter are just friends. He just comes for dinner remember, then tucks you into bed like you want," Paige's lie was obvious to everyone, and the fake smile from Walter just added to the humour of the situation now.

"But there's always strange noises coming from your room and I always hear the door lock when he leaves at 6 every morning," Ralph stated.

The couple was stumped. There was no point denying their relationship now Ralph obviously knew about it, and the whole of Scorpion aswell. They had just hoped the would have a little more time to themselves before everyone would stare at them as a couple.

Paige couldn't think of anything to say, and Walter wasn't going to contribute judging by the still present choking and now bright red blush on his face. For a guy with a low EQ, he sure does show emotion on his face a lot, Paige thought.

"Well kid, looks like you'll have a sibling on the way soon!" Declared Toby, getting the reaction he wanted from the now public couple, matching blushes; how cute.
