No Matter What.

Christmas.

"Mommy, who all is gonna be here tonight?" Lucy says jumping up and down.

"Your Aunts, Uncles from Mommies work, Grandma, Grandpa, and Daddy Danny." CJ has been referring to Danny as Daddy Danny, so Lucy can get used to it in case it is confirmed that Danny is the father of Lucy.

"Really?"

"Yes, Missy, now go to your room and finish getting ready. They should be here soon."

"Ok." About 10 minutes later there is a knock on the door which makes Lucy run out of the room, so she could open up the door.

"Who is it" CJ  shouts through the door.

"It is one of your friends from the West Wing."

"Come on in Joshua, and Lucy Jean Cregg-Concannon you are not to run in this apartment how many times do I have to tell you that!"

"Sorry, Mommy." Lucy drops her head down to her chest.

"Oh, come on CJ it's Christmas she was just excited."

"Of course, you are going to be the fun Uncle today."

"So, Lucy, what did you ask for Christmas from Santa?"

"A Daddy, just like usual. I may have gotten one, because." At that point, Toby enters along with Carol, Donna and CJ's parents. "Uncle Toby, Auntie Carol, and Aunt Donna."

"Hey, what are we chopped liver?"

"Hi, Mom, hi Dad." CJ gives her parents a hug.

"Now, only Daddy Danny needs to show up."

"CJ, did Lucy just call the guy I keep telling you to stay away from call Daddy."

"Yes, she did Tobias. He wants to be the father figure, and remember how everyone keeps asking me if he is the father. Well, we had a DNA test done and will be getting the results pretty soon."

"CJ, he is a reporter."

"TOBY, she is MY daughter and whenever she is around Danny, and I. I am not the Press Secretary and Danny is not senior correspondent to the White House. If you can't accept that you know where the door is."

"Mommy, your phone is ringing and there has been a knocking on the door."

"Ok, thank you sweety. Why don't you take Uncle Josh and go see if it is Daddy Danny." Lucy takes off running to open up the door for Danny.

"Hello, sweetness, where is your mom?" Danny bends down to pick up the girl he loves like a daughter.

"Yelling at Uncle Toby."

"Why?"

"I don't understand why."

"Ok. CJ, I'm here with the results that I have yet to open. Lucy, stay with me, this envelope tells us if we are actually related, or if I'm just going to be like your father."

"Danny?"

"Come over here so I can open this up." CJ goes over to Danny who hands her Lucy.

"Ok." Danny opens it up.

"What does it say?"

"Well, Lucy, I am officially your Daddy."

"Santa finally have me what I have been wanting for a few years now. Mommy, I have a Daddy."

"Yes, Sweetheart you do." Everyone looks at the scene with their eyes moistening over. Toby then realizes how much this little girl has wanted a father.
