Something's bothering you, and as much as I can tell you don't want to discuss it, I just can't not anymore.

I know it's early, but I'm not usually late. At all.

Reeve, I can't be a mother.

You can be anything, love. I happen to think yu'd make an amazing mother. And you won't be alone.

I thought this was something we couldn't do here...

It's something we shouldn't, undoubtedly. But it happened, love. Despite our best efforts. And I -- honestly, I wouldn't mind having a family with you, Anita.

I'm too tempermental and impatient for parenting. What if they ended up like me?

"That would be wonderful."

He left the computer in the other room as he came to find her. This wasn't a conversation that should be distanced.

He'd find her in the spare room, where she'd obviously been working out. Granted, it didn't seem like she'd done her usual vigorous work, but she'd still done enough to loosen up her limbs.

"How?"

He found her and brought over her water bottle, settling in beside her.

"This will just circle around to another conversation about how wonderful I think you are. Anita, I truly believe you'd be a spectacular mother. But if you don't want it, there are other options."

She took the bottle without looking. Instinct just told her where he'd have it.

"We don't even know if there's an 'it' to think about right now."

"That's true. We should give it a few more weeks, at the very least."

He squeezed her hand gently before he handed her the water.

"Anita, you have an amazing capacity for love and compassion. One day you will make an amazing mother."

She just smiled faintly and took a long drink of the water.

"Hardly. So how are we supposed to pass the next few weeks? I suck at waiting for something to happen."

He looked amused.

"There's nothing we can do to change it. So we go on living our lives. Although traditionally, at this point, I believe you could just take a test."

Not that he particularly trusted anything made by tht deities.

"It's still a bit early for a test to be right and I don't want to think about trusting the idiots that run this place. How do we know they won't fuck it up somehow?"

She sighed and twisted a bit, hissing under her breath as a pop sounded.

"You look happy about this."

He managed to look rather sheepish, even though he couldn't look outright upset. "i'm sorry, love. I know it's in bad taste, but the truth is I could never marry a woman I didn't want a family with."

"So what would you want, ideally?"

She was looking at him now, even if her eyes didn't quite look completely in focus.

Oh, Anita. He wouldn't play this hand with her when they'd just both get hurt. "Ideally, I'd live with you in a place where we could have children when we were ready, without any dear of what might happen to them."

"Of course. Evasive answer, but pretty."

Smiling that odd, almost flat smile, she touched his arm, then moved to stand up.

"... I'm not sure what to think about all this."

His hand caught hers, and for a moment his eyes were bleak. "Wit do you want me to say? That we could have two little girls who look just like their mother? Anita..."

He let it go, but kept their fingers locked together. "It's your decision, Anita, and I will be with you no matter what you choose. But for what it's worth, I still believe you'd be a wonderful mother." A small frown touched his lips. "And if you don't trust yourself, then trust me."

Her fingers tightened on his as she looked down at him. Her expression was odd; a mix of sadness and what almost looked like fear.

"I do trust you. I just... you're the only man I've been with that I'd want to have a family with. The others aren't good dad material, but... you are. You'd be an amazing dad. Part of me is screaming inside that this isn't a good idea, but the rest of me wants this to be true. I've never wanted this before."

He pulled her back into his arms, burying his nose in her hair.

"We're getting ahead of ourselves again. Let's wait first and see if anything comes of this."

As if it didn't make his heart race that she wanted a children with him. She thought he'd be a good dad.

Her sharp ears picked up the quickened heartbeat but she didn't say anything. She knew her own was racing as well.

"Yeah. You're right."

Settling against him with a soft sigh, she let her cheek rest against his for a moment.

He caught her cheek and kissed her gently, pouring as much love and acceptance into it as he could.

No matter how things went, they would be alright. He would see to it.
