My worry quickly faded, replaced by shock which too was quickly replaced, this time by pure joy, I smiled and pulled her into a tight hug before I could even say anything, I could hardly think, I was too excited "thats fantastic sweetie!" I excitedly exclaimed before asking "how far in are you?"

"Thrid month now" she happily replied, this time she didn't sound at all nervous.

"I thought I could see a little bump, I just wasn't sure" I stated to her "oh but don't you worry, you look fantastic!"

She smiled with a little blush "you seem pretty excited"

"Oh my goodness, I think I always wanted kids and your just making another dream come true" I replied.

She laughed "it's a bit of a dream for me too"

We walked back to the lab, chatting, discussing what we'll need and such.

When we got back to the lab, Alexa the geneticist approached us with a smile "Jake, we have decoded the genome of another two amber samples"

Gena and I smiled excitedly. "thats fantastic!" I exclaimed before asking "would you by chance know what this one is?"

She shook her head "all we know is that it's a different species"

"thats great" I replied before we started for my room.

"After work I'd like to talk to you Jake" Alexa stated, only to slip away before I could question it.

Later that day, Alexa knocked on my room. I raised my voice a bit and said "come in"

Nervously, Alexa came in and said "hey Jake"

"Hey Alexa" I replied, saving some work I was doing on the computer before turning to face her "whats up?"

She looked to Gena, seeing she was asleep with headphones in, she looked back to me and said "I think we need to discuss maternity leave"

I smiled "Oh thats no problem, why where you so nervous?"

She shook her head "I didn't know what you'd say, you know how competitive of a field this is, I wasn't sure what would happen"

I chuckled and replied "it's pretty competitive, but you are extremely experienced and qualified, not to mention I do really like kids and my employees... However, I do not know things like when you should get off and how long you should be off, so I'll look that up tonight"

Alexa smiled "so it's cool?"

I nodded and she headed for the door again "thank you very much Jake"

"It's no problem, really" I replied again.

Gena took a head phone out "congrats Alexa"

Alexa blushed before slipping out.
