A/N: Just a quick little one shot, this does not tie into my other stories at all…Just my muse wanted this to be written…..lol…. If you all like, please leave me a kind word…

Chris was seated at his desk working on paperwork from their last case they had just wrapped up, he knew he should be concentrating on the work, but he just kept looking at the woman across from him. He just had to know, she said it would be fast, but this just seemed to be taking forever. Every now and then he would look down at the clock…This was taking too long, he opened up a IM screen on his laptop.

Bamaboy : Have ya checked it yet?

Michigan : No not yet…I set the timer on my phone to go off…

Bamaboy : Where did ya put it?

Michigan : In a secure location, when you see me get up follow me..

Bamaboy : Did anyone see ya hide it?

Michigan : No! And stop worrying so much!

Mere stopped typing when she heard her cell phone ding, she very casually stood up and walked toward the kitchen. Chris watched her head towards the kitchen, he waited a few seconds then picked up his coffee cup and followed her.

Once she was in the kitchen Mere opened a drawer and pulled out a plastic bag, she looked at the contents. Chris walked up behind her and looked over her shoulder at the plastic bag, he watched as she removed the little stick and looked at it. She then turned around to face him as she placed the stick in his hand. He just looked at it then he looked at Mere..He took a deep breath..

"Well babe, whatcha think?"

"Honestly, I'm scared Chris…I just don't know if I can do this…."

"We both knew the risk, we knew this could happen…"

"I know, but do you think we're ready for this?"

Chris knew he had to word this just right….

"We're more than ready for this, I can't wait to see my baby growing inside ya..Be able to feel him move around in there, and hold ya both in my arms. It's gonna be great, I can't wait to get started babe."

Mere looked deep into Chris's beautiful blue eyes; she reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck, and pulled him towards her lips placing a passionate kiss on him. It didn't take long for him to respond to her, he pushed her up against the counter and ever so gently lifted her up. They broke the kiss and Chris push up Mere's top just enough so he could touch her still flat abdomen. He rubbed his hand over it, and leaned towards it brushing his lips over it. He placed soft kisses where his baby was now residing. Mere watched Chris with amazement; she loved how much he was already in love with their baby and with her. Her life had never been so perfect; she has the perfect job, perfect boyfriend, and perfect daddy for her baby, her life couldn't get any better than it was at this moment.

Chris looked up to meet Mere's eyes, and smiled his 1000 watt smile at her…

"We are 1 step closer to my LaSalle Family Basketball Team…"

Mere just laughed… "Let's see how we do with this one first, then we can talk about more…"

"Deal Babe…"
