Timeless: One Shots

Exciting News

      "Oh my God," Lucy whispered to herself as she looked down at the pregnancy test. She had been feeling ill the last few weeks as well as tired and nauseated. When she missed her time Lucy began to stress and bought eight pregnancy test. Each one of them turned out positive. She had mixed feelings about the whole situation. On one hand she was excited that she was having a child. However, on the other hand she hadn't broken up with Noah, her "fiancé" and she didn't know how to tell him it wasn't his.

     Lucy leaned against the bathroom wall breathing heavily as she contemplated her choices. She could come clean with Noah or she could call off the engagement with him or she could keep it secret. No, she thought with a chuckle, that last one is not an option. She took in a deep breath and opened the bathroom door. A bigger problem struck her immediately, her mother. What the hell was she going to tell her mother.

     "Lucy," her mother called up, "You have a visitor!" Lucy's heart was pounding in her chest as she left her room and came down the stairs. Noah was standing at the bottom with a smile on his face. She managed an awkward smile as she descended the stairs.

      "Hello Beautiful," he said kissing her cheek.

      "Hi," she muttered out. Noah gave her a strange look, but before he could pry Lucy's phone rang.

       She immediately picked it up, not bothering to look at the caller ID. "Hello?"

      "Hey Luce," Wyatt's husky voice came over the phone. She smiled a little and waked into a different room.

      "Hey Wyatt," she said quietly, so that Noah and her mother couldn't hear in the next room.

      "Mason wants us at work and I-I'm driving your way if you want a ride," Wyatt seemed nervous and Lucy's smile widened.

       "I'd love a ride," she decided and once goodbyes were exchanged she hung up the phone. Lucy walked into the foyer only to see her mom and Noah talking quietly. After a few moments she decided to make her presents know.

      "That was work," she said gliding cautiously to the front door. Before she could move the door handle Noah gently grabbed her hand.

      "So, no lunch today," he sadly smiled. Lucy gave him a pity smile and shook her head.

      "Dinner then," Noah suddenly said. Lucy was startled by the sudden gesture.

     "It'll h-have to be later in the w-week," she muttered opening the door quickly, trying to avoid the awkwardness of the situation. Wyatt's car was parked on the side of the road and he was walking to her door.

     "Hey," he said with a smile, "Ready?" Lucy nodded her head and met him halfway and they walked to his car. Being the gentlemen he was he opened the door for her. Once he was settled they began the drive to Mason Industries. Lucy nervously fidgeted in her seat as her and Wyatt sat in silence, listening to the quiet radio. She glanced at Wyatt more times than necessary, noticing Wyatt did the same thing.

    "You okay," he asked breaking the silence. Lucy froze, trying to put together her words.

     "Uh," she breathed out, "Wyatt, I have to tell you something."

      Wyatt's heart rate sped up, "Those are never good words." Lucy giggled a little, but just to make the situation less tense. Before she could say anymore, he was pulling into Mason Industries' parking lot. Rufus was walking up to the door when he saw the two get out of the car.

      "Hey guys," he said causally holding the door open. Wyatt gave a small wave and opened the door for Lucy. She silently cursed as she smiled at Rufus. The trio walks in together, not saying a word as they were given details on where Flynn disappeared to.

      Lucy's hands started to shake as she got dressed. I have to tell him, she stated looking around to wardrobe dock for him. "Of course," she mumbled to herself, "If I need to talk to you you're not around."

     A few frustrated sighs later and she was walking to the Lifeboat. She could see Wyatt and Rufus talking as she came closer. Her hands were starting to shake again as she climbed in and Wyatt buckled her in. He gave her a puzzled look and held both her hands.

      "Wyatt, I really need to tell you something," Lucy squeaked out as she looked into his eyes. His concern grew and he started to rub her hands with his thumbs.

       "Sorry Lucy," Rufus said as he closed the Lifeboat door, "But we really need to get going." Wyatt regretfully pulled away and buckled himself in.

     The trio was walking amongst the crowds in Texas who were craning their necks to get a glimpse of President John F. Kennedy. Wyatt lead the group as they tried to track Flynn before Kennedy's assassination. Lucy was shaking still trying to work up the courage to tell Wyatt she was pregnant. Her heart started to beat faster as they maneuvered through the crowds. However, once the shot rang out chaos spread. People started to scream and scurry away from Kennedy's limousine. Wyatt took out his gun and two more shots echoed through the streets. Lucy averted her eyes from the limousine, she didn't want to see Kennedy's body, or the body of his wife.

     "Do you see Flynn," Wyatt shouted above the screaming. Rufus looked wildly around and pointed out men moving atop a building. It was Flynn and his men. Wyatt took a few shots and it looked like he shot Flynn. Lucy couldn't be sure because Wyatt pushed her behind him, to make her less of a target.

      After Flynn had disappeared from the building the group started away from the murder scene. Lucy let Rufus lead the way back to the Lifeboat and stayed behind with Wyatt. He was still on edge and looked everywhere for another Flynn sighting.

     Lucy closed her eyes and grabbed Wyatt's hand. He stopped and turned to look at her. "Wyatt, I'm pregnant," She finally blurted out. Her heart was beating faster and faster when he didn't say anything. He was shocked, it was all over his face. His eyes darted back and forth between hers.

      "What," he muttered his hands squeezed her. She squeezed back and smiled a little.

      "I'm pregnant Wyatt," she said again. His face relaxed and he smiled a little. He leaned in a kissed her cheek. However, their moment was ruined when another gun shot rang out. Wyatt's defensive mode kicked in and he gently tugged at Lucy. He needed to get her out of this dangerous situation. Wyatt began to run and Lucy was in tow. She was relieved that she finally told him even though it was right after President Kennedy's assassination.

      They ran for miles until they reached the Lifeboat. Rufus immediately hopped in and started it up, but Wyatt pulled Lucy to the side. He didn't know what to say so instead he kissed her. It was a sweet gentle kiss that he smiled into. When they broke away she was so happy he wasn't disappointed.

      "I can't believe you're pregnant," he finally said with a smile. She smiled back and kissed him quickly before they both walked to the Lifeboat. Wyatt's heart was still racing a mile a minute and he had a goofy smile on his face.
