Steve and Fallon would go for jogs in the morning, being the workout junkies they are. They would also take their son, Neil, with them in his stroller. They did this every morning without fail. Except one morning, Fallon woke up feeling nauseous and stayed in bed. Neil, not understanding why his mother wasn't up, toddled into his parents' room and started gently patting his mother's face. "Mama? Mama?"

Steve sat up, noticing that Fallon wasn't up. She has been pretty I'll today.
"Well, Neil, Mama's sick right now."

Fallon lift a hand and pat her son on his head. "Mama's okay, Neil." She then turned to look at Steve. "Go ahead and take him on the jog. I'm staying home."

Steve smiled. "Alright. We won't take too long. Rest as much as you need, love." He pats Fallon's shoulder.

She smiled back, lying her head back on her pillow. When Steve and Neil returned from their jog, they found Fallon in the bathroom, sitting next to the toilet, looking exhausted. "Dad! Mama sick!" Neil exclaimed, pointing at her.

Steve immediately ran into the bathroom to console his sick wife.
"Fallon? Are you okay? Do we need to see a doctor?"

"Yes, please." She took her phone and dialed the number before handing it to him.

Steve took the phone and called the doctor. After telling him that about what was wrong with Fallon, Steve immediately told Fallon what to do and asked his parents to watch Neil for him.

Getting dressed in comfortable casual clothes, Fallon picked up her son. "Mama okay?" He asked innocently. "Mama's okay, Neil. She's going to the doctor to see what's wrong. You'll get to spend the time with Grandmom and Granddad." She explained. The toddler smiled at the promise of spending the day with Austin and Sarah.

"Yes. She'll be just fine, Neil. Just fine." Steve smiled.

After dropping off Neil and a quick detour since Fallon's nausea returned, they made it to the doctor's office. Fallon signed herself in and sat with her husband, waiting for her doctor. "You know... I think I know what's wrong with me." She said quietly.

"I think so, too." Steve smiled, feeling very hopeful.

She smiled at him as she took his hand and placed it on her stomach. "I hope we're right." "Fallon?" The nurse asked. Fallon stood up with Steve and they walked into the exam room. After a quick exam, the doctor decided to draw blood to test if she was pregnant. Fallon exhaled deeply as she watched the nurse draw her blood, squeezing Steve's hand when the needle went into her arm. Needles didn't bother her, but it still hurt.

Steve smiled and waited for the doctor.
"Did you skip a period?" Steve asked. "I think we're ready."

Fallon nodded; she thought he was trying to distract her. "Yeah, about two months ago. Maybe?" Once the nurse got her blood in vials, she left with the doctor to test them, leaving the couple alone. "I really hope I'm pregnant... I know the world isn't a safe place right now, but it's safe here in England."
