OK guys I was sitting here being bored with life and this popped into my head. I still can`t believe I did this. Now I know I`ve gone insane.

Summary: Starbuck buys somebody a birthday present, and gets a 
surprise of his own.

"There that one Starbuck, it would be perfect," Sheba said to the
handsome blond man.

"You're sure that`s the one?" Starbuck asked.

Sheba rolled her eyes, "Yes, Starbuck, it`s perfect."

"Well, okay, if your sure." He turned to the shop keeper, " I`ll
take it," and handed over his money.

***

Two centars later Starbuck was sitting in a private dining lounge
with Apollo, Sheba and Cassie.
Today was Cassie`s birthday,and the four of them had come over to
the Rising Star to celebrate.
But Cassie seemed a bit down.

"Cassie why are you so grim? It`s your birthday. You look like
you have the weight of the worlds on your shoulders. I know what
will cheer you up, time for your gifts, Starbuck do you want to
go
first?" Apollo said.

"Nope, you and Sheba go first, I want to wait," Starbuck grinned.

"Apollo give her the gift you bought and let Starbuck be," Apollo
couldn`t understand why Sheba was so excited,she was acting like
it was her birthday. Apollo knew that Sheba had helped Starbuck
pick out the gift, but he didn`t know what it was. Earlier when
he had asked Sheba what Starbuck bought she had just grinned and
said, "You`ll see."

Apollo handed Cassie her gift, a lovely tea pot to replace the
one he had broken on her the secton before. It was a white china
pot with pink roses painted on it. Exactly like the other one.

"Oh, Apollo, thank you, now I don`t have to make my tea in my cup
any more," She gave him an evil look.

"Well you were pretty upset with me last secton."

Sheba giggled, "Upset? I think she wanted to skin you alive
butterfingers," Sheba then gave Cassie her gift. A set of tea
cups that matched the tea pot. "I noticed that your cups were all
different and some were chipped, so now you have four that are
all the same."

"Your right, my others that matched the pot were all broken on
me," Cassie looked straight at Apollo as she said this.

"Well now it`s my turn. Close your eyes Cassie," Starbuck said.

Cassie closed her eyes, but almost opened them when she heard
Apollo gasp, "Oh my Lord."

"Okay Cassie you can look."

Cassie opened her eyes, "Oh my!"

Starbuck grinned from ear to ear, "Cassie, will you marry me?"

He was holding an engagement ring.

"Oh, Starbuck, it`s beautiful, but before I answer I should tell
you what`s bothering me."

Starbuck`s heart sunk, he feared she was about to tell him no and
that they were breaking up, just when he was ready to settle
down.

"What?" He said, his voice almost a whisper.

Cassie took a deep breath and said, "I found out today that I`m
pregnant."

"Pregnant?! You're pregnant?" Starbuck said.

"Yes," Cassie replied.

Starbuck grinned from ear to ear and jumped up from his seat.
"Did you hear that Apollo, she`s pregnant. *I`M GONNA HAVE A BABY
I`M GONNA HAVE A BABY!*"

Starbuck was shouting and jumping up and down. Cassie had been
worried about how he would react, she didn`t think it would be
this way.

"Starbuck, that`s wonderful," Apollo cheered as he jumped up and
gave his friend a hug.

Sheba just stared at the two men, then looked at Cassie`s stunned
face. "So Cassie, what`s your answer?"

Cassie didn`t have a chance to answer because Starbuck did it for
her. "Her answer is yes of course, I`m having a baby."

"Funny I thought I was the pregnant one," Cassie said.
