○○○○ Bell's POV. ○○○○
It's been a while since Adler found out. The baby is definitely his, and I'm definitely pregnant. We got a DNA test, and I've taken more pregnancy tests. Adler found out he wasn't infertile. I even snuck away to a doctors appointment with Adler and Park. They told the team they were doing something with me, but never told me what. I wonder.. But that isn't important. Unfortunately, I was ill every morning. Vomiting and such. But Adler was there for it all. Holding back my hair, patting my back, giving me water after I was done throwing up. He would help me out of bed and walk me downstairs to get breakfast.

There were even times he left the safehouse late at night to get me those stupid cravings that I needed. And he was good at it all too. Yes, he was learning, but so was I. It was an experience and learning process for both of us, and he was handling it well. We didn't know the gender, but whatever this baby is gonna be, we're gonna love them unconditionally. I've always wanted a baby, just never thought of it this way. I stood up from the toilet and grabbed the glass of water Adler had been holding at my side for me.
"Thanks.. and I'm sorry I'm making you go through all of this." I took a swig of the cold water.
"I'm the one who made this happen, aren't I? So I should be the one to help you." He planted a kiss on my forehead. I smiled at him, looking back at my glass of water.
"You know, I.. I think you'll make a great dad." Without hesitation I was already in his arms, pulled against his chest.
"You really think so?"
It was a moment of vulnerablity for him.
"Yeah. I do." We stood there for a moment until a knock came on my bathroom door.

"Bell? You in there? You haven't been down all morning like you usually are. Just wanted to check up on you." Mason was a great friend throughout all of this. Obviously, he didn't know I was pregnant. He would soon, just not now. It's too early.
"Yeah, I'm good! Just slept in a little late today, tired, still not feeling well is all." I called out to him.
"Is that short for making out with Adler?" Woods called back.
I rolled my eyes.
I could hear Woods snicker and Mason punch him in the side. Then an audible ouch. A few more slaps between the two until I opened the door a little to step out, with a glimpse of Adler behind me. Guess he didn't move.
"You two are acting like children." I giggled.
Woods shrugged. "What can I say? Mason is 5."
"You're the one who made the Adler joke!" Mason whined.
"That's true." I pointed at Mason with my arms crossed.
"Aha! And I was right!" Woods exclaimed, making smooching noises while pointing at Adler.
Adler quietly stepped out of my bathroom, flicking Woods on the nose.

Another ouch, and a returned flick on Adler's arm. He lifted his arm up at Woods, looking as if he was preparing to bitch slap him.
"Okay! Enough. Enough hissy fights for today." I stood between them, smiling. Adler put his arm down.
"Well... were you?" Woods raised his eyebrows up and down.
"Okay, my turn." I playfully punched his arm.
"Hey! You never said no.." He snickered.
"I will do it again and that's a threat." I raised my fist at Woods.
"Yeah, you wouldn't wanna be beat up by a pregnant lady and lose to her." Adler mocked Woods.
I turned to Adler slowly as he looked back at me.
"What?"
I turned back to Mason and Woods.
Oops.
Their mouths were gaped open as they looked at us and back to each other. I know Adler knows he fucked up, but he wouldn't show it.

"...Did you just say pregnant..?"
Mason almost whispered.
Adler nodded.
We were all silent.
"With who's baby?" Woods questioned.
"Russell and I are expecting.." I played with my hands, unable to look them in the eyes until Woods bursted out with happiness.
"Fuck yeah! I'm gonna be an uncle! Again!" He cheered with joy.
Mason smiled at me.
"Congratulations!"
"I wish I was there to say that about David too, Mason. Sorry." I nervously laughed.
"That's okay, what matters is you're pregnant! We're happy for you guys, and I think Woods might be a little too excited about it." He laughed looking at Woods doing a victory dance around Adler.

I gave Mason a tight hug.
"Thank you, for everything." I closed my eyes.
"You're welcome. Frank and I are always here if you need something."
I reopened my eyes to look up at him and part from the hug.
"I'll remember that." I smiled. He pat my shoulder and looked at me in the eyes. He was going to say something before being interrupted by Woods flinging himself between us and continued dancing. Then he stopped in his tracks.
"Wait... If you and Adler are expecting.. that means.. aw--! Eww! Gross! Adler, you saw Bell, naked?!" He made a fake gagging noise. Woods turned to look at me and giggled after I slapped his arm. "I'm kidding, I bet you look smokin' under all of that."
Adler was visibly angry at this comment. His arms stayed crossed on his chest.
"Having a baby with her doesn't make me affiliated with her, but that doesn't mean I'm not her boyfriend." He gritted through his teeth.
"I'm joking, Russell! Calm down. Wait- are you though..?" Woods then turned to look at Adler and looked back at me.
"Yeah." I nodded.

"....Am I going to be invited to the wedding?"
"Don't make me bitch slap you this time." Adler took his aviators off. He was staring bullets at Woods.
"Does that mean you don't want to get married to her?" Woods looked back at Adler
"Frank!" Mason yelled at Woods for being such a dumbass.
Woods giggled as Adler chased him out of the room. I sighed happily, watching them be 2 little toddlers.
I shook my head, and turned back to Mason.
"Sorry, Frank had a lot of coffee today. He also had some whiskey."
"No, it's fine. I should apologize for Russ, too. He's getting a little too angry."
We held a straight face for a while until we looked into each other's eyes and started giggling. It turned into a laugh where we were crying when Woods ran into the room out of breath begging for help as Adler pounced on him. They had a kitty fight before Mason and I pulled them off of each other.

We all stood up as Mason and I laughed it off. Adler glared at Woods as I held him back. Mason stood in front of Woods and laughed as Woods made little gestures and faces to mock Adler.
We spoke for a little longer until they left the room.
I closed my door and Adler sighed as he sat on my bed.
"Sorry.." I played with my fingers.
"No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say that." He rubbed his face with his hands. Slowly I walked to my bed, sitting next to him and rubbing his back.
"It's okay. They were gonna find out anyways. How are we gonna keep it from Sims and Lazar? Or should we just tell them? We need to keep it from Hudson." He pulled his hands off of his face.
"Yes, we do need to keep it from Hudson. You're right. I don't know how to tell them without blowing our cover."

I thought for a minute until..

Bingo.

My feet hit the floor hard as I rushed up to grab sticky notes and a pen.
"What are you doing?" Adler slowly stood up from my bed.
I didn't respond. I took two sticky notes and sat at the table in my room, and began to write.

Hello Uncle Lawrence!
Surprise! I'm your new baby niece or nephew! ♡ Aren't you excited for me?! I must be kept a secret from Hudson.. Everybody else knows. My mommy is Bell. She is happy that I'm on the way, and wants you to be too! My daddy Russell wants us to spend plenty of time together. I promise to hang out with you and help you build things when I'm old enough. I'll see you soon! Love you! ♡
- Baby Ms./Mr. Adler.

Adler stood behind me and put his hands on my shoulders.
"Can you grab me my pregnancy tests?" I clicked the pen.
"Why?"
"Just do it."

Good morning Uncle Lazar!
Aren't you surprised?! I hope you're happy to welcome me to the team, as a new member! ♡ I promise, I'll eat chinese takeout with you all of the time and we can take strolls around the town with you and Aunt Park. My mommy is excited to share me with you! Her name is Bell. Mommy wants you to keep me a secret from Hudson. Daddy Russell is also excited for me! I hope you are too!
- Baby Ms./Mr. Adler.

Adler placed 2 of my pregnancy tests next to me on the table.
"Thanks." I grabbed them and stood up. I kissed him on the cheek and grabbed the sticky notes.
He held his zippo in one hand, and grabbed my wrist in the other.
"I'd like to talk about something when you get back." His face was emotionless.
"Okay.."
Was it something bad? Did I do something wrong? He let go of my wrist as I quietly walked out of my room. My door closed behind me quickly as I heard Adler light his zippo on a cigarette. He puffed from the stick as I tip toed to Sims' desk downstairs, hoping not to get caught after I very quickly panicked to get the sticky note and pregnancy test in the drawer he opens to get his cigarettes from. Then, I made my way to where Lazar sits. Cautiously, I put the sticky note under his chinese takeout that he had been eating just 20 minutes ago and the pregnancy test that I put in a tiny plastic bag, in his cup. I closed the lid to his drink and snuck back upstairs.

On my way I had been nervous as hell, thinking of what Adler wanted to possibly talk about. I hesitantly stood at my door, my hand on the knob. The other on the door, as I took a deep, shaky breath. The door knob quietly shuffled open as I pushed it with my hand.

Step.
Step..
Step...

My breath hitched. I felt like I was unable to breathe. My heart was pounding.
He stood in front of me, and hugged me tightly. My nervousness had washed away. I took a breath out into his chest. His hand grasped my jaw gently and we both slowly leaned in for a kiss. Our lips touched right as the door slammed opened with an excited Sims and Lazar standing in the doorway. "Bell! You're pr-" Lazars hand slapped Sims' mouth as he looked side to side in the hallway, shushing Sims and closing the door behind them as they walked in. We looked at them. They had both been holding the notes and pregnancy tests. "You're pregnant?!" He whisper screamed. I nodded as he tapped his feet like a giddy little girl. "Oh man! I can't wait. I always knew there was something between you two, the way Adler protected you and spoke about you when you weren't arou-!"

"Okay Sims, enough." Adler's face was red. His aviators were already back on his face, shielding his eyes. Sims stopped to look at Adler. "Aww.. Did you really?" A sweet look overtook my shocked face from them barging into the room. He looked down and nodded quickly. I held onto his hand. "Well, thanks for putting it in a bag before dunking it into my drink." Lazar held the bag up in front of all of us which was dripping with iced tea.
"Okay, it wasn't the best idea but I had to hide it! Plus, at least I put it in a bag. So you didn't get any germs, or even piss in it."
"Fair enough." His annoyed face immediately turned into a smile.
"The notes were cute."
"I tried my best." I smiled at them.
Within minutes the whole team was in my room, talking about it amongust themselves.
"Just makes you feel good, doesn't it?" I looked at Adler and smiled.
"Yeah.. Yeah, it does." He placed a kiss on my forehead.

"Ohh, Bell! I know you were scared but, congratulations." Park gave me a tight and quick hug.
"Thank you Park.., and thank you for being there for me."
"Any time." She walked back to Lazar and they began a nice conversation.

The chatter died down a little as a knock came on my door.
Everyone was in the room.
Hudson..?
"Hudson." Adler whispered to everyone.
"Go, hide." They all hurried into the bathroom and locked the door with the pregnancy tests and notes.
Park stayed in the room, quickly sitting in a chair next to my bed. I rushed to my bed and we fixed ourselves up.
"Come in." I said.
The door opened quietly to a blank faced Hudson stepping into my room.
"Bell, Park."
"Good evening, Hudson." I tried to stay calm.
"Oh, Hello." Park turned to face Hudson.
"Why are you in here, Park?" He questioned, crossing his arms.
"Ohh, well.. You know..,"
"She-..!.. She was just-.. Congratulating me on successfully pulling off the mission, and being able to decode all of that important stuff we needed."
Park turned to look at me, back at Hudson, and nodded, pointing at me over her back.
"Yes, precisely that. She did very well, you know." She continued to nod.
I don't think Hudson was buying it, but didn't mind to pry as it could have been something private as a more feminine issue.

"Okay. Well where are the rest of the guys?"
"Oh! I think they went out to the local bar to get some drinks, you know. Typical boys, am I right?" Park and I laughed nervously.
Hudson rasied an eyebrow at this.
"A-Anyways!-.." I interrupted.
"You know, Adler isn't much of a drinker I'm sure he'll have a bit or none at that, and drive the rest of them home when they're blackout drunk." I continued.
Hudson was confused as hell but just decided to ignore it because there was too much going on at once in one tiny little room.
He left without saying a word, and Park quickly shuffled to the door to close and lock it again.
We both sighed of relief.
"Okay, you guys can come out now."
The door opened with all of them looking confused and mad.
"Who says Adler would be driving?!" Woods exclaimed.
"Yeah!" Sims followed up on Woods.
"Who says I would even want to drive these idiots?" Adler got a playful punch from Lazar. "Good one."
"And if we're doing who says.. Who says I like to drink?" Mason pouted playfully.
"Who says I don't?" Adler spoke up once again.
"That is true.." Sims weakly pointed at Adler and snickered.
"He would get so drunk in 'Nam-.." Sims continued before being cut off by Adler.
"I didn't think I'd have to tell you to shut up more than once today, Lawrence." Adler crossed his arms.
"Oh-hoh, we're going by first names now, aren't we, Russell?" Sims snickered again.
Adler rolled his eyes. He loved his friends but they could be sooo annoying..

"Yeah, look who's got his big boy pants on now." Woods mocked Adler and laughed.
"Well, some times that happens when you're having a kid. The stress gets to you as well.." Mason shuddered.
"I know, that's what I'm personally afraid of." I broke the silence.
"Yes, I am excited to be a dad. Yes, I do want to be a dad. That isn't why I keep interrupting you, perhaps it's because not everybody here needs or wants to know stories of my life and when I used to get very drunk in 'Nam." Adler continued his previous conversation with Sims.
"Pshht.. Adler was fun once guys, believe it or not." Sims looked around the room at us.

Woods snuck behind everyone quietly, out of the room. When I looked at him he started throwing hand signals at me and mouthing words to me. All I got out of that was "alcohol." Jesus fucking christ.. After a bit of Sims struggling to get out stories about Adler, Woods came back in the room with liquor, whiskey, whine, beer, the works. A whole bag of it all. "Hudson left, who's ready to celebrate?!" Woods cheered.
Everyone else yelled and cheered with him, I giggled at his stupidity. But, I love him anyways so it's okay if he gets stupid. We all followed him downstairs to the lounging area we had. It had a few couches and some tables. A TV was placed in the room with the couches, and a tall shelf filled with Woods' alcohol.
"Huh.." I put my hands on my hips. "Didn't think this is where I'd find your stash. I expected it to be a little more hidden." Everybody sat down on the couches and turned the TV on. The volume on the TV went down, and the volume on the record player was turned up.

Adler searched through the bin of records as the rest spoke loudly amongst themselves, drinking some alcohol. I observed him from a distance. He soon chose "Let's Groove" by Earth, Wind and Fire. He wasn't the type of guy for this music, was he? Did he know that I love this song? He took off his jacket and put the record on the player, lifting the tone arm to start the record. A few excited shouts and some singing insued over the span of a minute. "Good one, Adler!" Sims yelled out over the loud music. He walked to Woods who was handling the alcohol at a table and he put his fingers on the table as Woods handed him a cup of wine and a shotglass with liquor. He grabbed both and walked over to me, handing me the wine glass. "Here you go, sweetheart."

"Thank you." I smiled, practically melting at him calling me sweetheart. As time went on, we all had more drinks and shared more stories. Songs were changed multiple times, added with Woods getting up on the table and doing a fake guitar solo to "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns and Roses. After that, we kinda had a karaoke night. Mason sang the high notes to "Dream On" by Aerosmith perfectly. Park did an amazing cover of "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks. Sims sang "Jessie's Girl" by Rick Springfield. Lazar chose "Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra. I hardcore danced and sang to "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson, and finally, Adler. Adler turned on "No One Like You" by The Scorpions, and had even sung to some parts. Everyone was impressed. We did some group karaokes, doubles, trios, and more. We continued to drink, and overall had an amazing night.

♧♧♧♧ Adler's POV. ♧♧♧♧
Bell stumbled back onto the couch, waving to everybody as they left. We had already cleaned up to leave no evidence behind for Hudson to see. She smiled weakly and closed her eyes as she cuddled up on the couch. "Come on, Bell. Let's go to bed." She had a little too much, I'm gonna guess she doesn't let loose too often. She lifted her arm up to my face and looked over at me. "Нет!/(No!)" She whisper yelled. She was speaking Russian. How does she remember Russian? I guess you can never take it away from her, can you?
I sighed, attempting to pick her up.
"Давай, у меня нет всей ночи. Хадсон скоро вернется./(Come on, I don't have all night. Hudson is returning shortly.)"

She got up, stumbling past me to the doorway. I slowly followed behind her, making sure she didn't hurt herself going up the stairs. She was mumbling words in Russian, and English as we walked to my room. I closed and locked the door behind me, sitting Bell on the bed. "Нет! Я не хочу сидеть, я хочу повеселиться!/(No! I don't want to sit, I want to have fun!)" She crossed her arms as I sighed, attempting to place a kiss on her forehead to perhaps calm her down. But she pushed me away. "Меня нельзя увидеть с другим мужчиной, мой парень будет ревновать! Я люблю его, ношу его ребенка, и он не будет счастлив. Ты не можешь меня поцеловать!/(I cannot be seen with another man, my boyfriend will get jealous! I love him and I am carrying his baby and he will not be happy. You can't kiss me!)" She kept her hands up in front of her as if to hold a distance between us.

"Yeah? How much do you love him?" I smirked.
"Ohhh! Too much! Моя любовь .. Я упала в обморок из-за него./(My love.. I swoon for him.) He makes me very счастливый/(happy). He is the love of my life." She took her arms apart and hugged herself, closing her eyes and smiling. Gently rocking herself side to side. "What is it that you love about him?" I sat next to her, far enough to make her comfortable but close enough to keep the atmosphere. "Everything! His baby blue eyes, ohh those детские голубые глаза../(baby blue eyes..) His smile! It makes me melt. And his laugh is out of this world. His strong muscular build, and those scars. Те части, которые он ненавидит больше всего, я люблю больше всего./(The parts he hates the most are the ones I love the most.) Just.. Everything! I love everything." She laid back, pulling the blanket over herself and closing her eyes. "I love him.." She yawned, drifting to sleep. I laid next to her, cuddling her gently. "I love you too.."
Soon, I fell asleep too.
