Keeping a secret from Spencer Reid was an impossible task. Especially when you are forced to live with him because you are both being stalked. Lexie switched from staying at the BAU to Spencer's apartment. She's known about her pregnancy for two weeks, and no one knows. She doesn't want to add any more stress to Spencer's already stressed-out self. Hiding your girlfriend from being killed is one thing, add in the fact that she is pregnant and the whole thing gets a whole lot worse.

She wants to tell Spencer more than anything, she really does. But she's so scared, for her life. A crazy man is still out there trying to hurt her. She goes to work a couple of times a week, but an agent or officer always has to be near her. Which gets annoying.

Today she is especially annoyed with her agent. Today she is getting an ultrasound. She feels bad for not having Spencer there, but she wants to make sure everything is okay before she tells him. She promised herself and her baby that she would tell Spencer when she got home tonight. She is having Caroline do the ultrasound because she knows she'll keep her mouth shut.

"Lexie Grey you are officially eight weeks pregnant," Caroline said proudly. She turned the ultrasound screen so Lexie could see.

"Eight weeks!" Lexie exclaimed. She threw her head back onto the exam table. 8 weeks was farther along than Lexie thought. 2 months of her pregnancy were already over.

"You want a picture to show dad? Who I'm praying is Spencer." Caroline said wiping the gel off Lexie's stomach. Her eyes growing wide when she mentions Spencer.

"Caroline. Who else would it be?" Lexie laughed

"Hey, I'm not one to judge."

"Of course its Spencer's."

"Well here's your peanut mama," Caroline handed her two print outs of the ultrasound.
Lexie sobbed as she looked at the picture. That was her baby. She's done many ultrasounds in her career, but being the one with the actual baby inside is way better. She and Spencer were going to be parents, she couldn't believe this was even happening.

The thought of kids was off the table for Lexie once Mark died. Sure she was only 24 at the time, but she couldn't see herself settling down with anyone else. Then she moved to Virginia and the thought slipped her mind altogether. Even in the first few months of Spencer and her dating she didn't think about it. Kids only crossed her mind about 3 weeks ago when Spencer had his breakdown. She wanted this, she wanted her family with Spencer.

She thanked Caroline and left the hospital, heading start for the BAU. It was around five o'clock, so Spencer was getting off work now. After parking, she had to take a minute to act normal. She hadn't stopped smiling since she got the photos. She composed herself and started towards the building.

Once she got off the elevator she briskly walked to Spencer's desk.

"Hello love." Spencer greeted her as his eyes met hers.

"Hi, ready to head home?" Lexie asked hopefully.

"Yes, just let me pack up," Spencer replied, already putting away case files.

"Awesome."

Lexie liked being at the BAU, she could visit with JJ, Emily, and Penelope. After some 'girl talk' as Derek and Spencer like to call it, Lexie and Spencer headed home.

Lexie sat in the passenger seat bouncing with excitement. She didn't have any special way of telling him, to her it didn't really matter how she told him. Spencer unlocked the front door of his apartment letting Lexie in first. He turned to lock to the door, he had multiple locks and security cameras installed at his place, just in case.
