Hi! I got really bored on my summer vacation one day and I decided "Hey, write something!" so I did. This is what I came up with. I know the summary sucked, but I couldn't think of a short version of what I have written and what I have planned without giving it away. Anyway, It's about if Katsa and Po had a baby. It starts a little, a year give or take, before the birth.

I don't really know if I'm going to post the whole fanfiction that I have planned. Just depends. :D

Disclamer: I do not own Graceling.

Katsa's POV

We hadn't meant to get pregnant. We were fighting when Po realized it. It was nearly dark; I swung my fist into Po's shoulder. He swung to punch me in the stomach; I knew what he intended to do and directed my body away from me. He stopped just short of my hip.

"No more fighting tonight." He said looking deep in thought.

Po, is everything alright?

"Yes, yes." He said as he walked back to our campsite. The goose I caught was simmering, I sat a on a tree root and watched the fire.

Po, what is wrong?

He looked at me for a moment and then said quietly, "Are you sure it was seabane you've been eating?"

"Of course! Raffin gave it to me." I was shocked by the allegation," Except for the amount I had when we found a patch while traveling…" I was frightened on where this was headed.

He looked up at me scared, "Are you positive?" I nodded, "When we get to the next city or village I want us to find the mid-wife to answer some questions." He looked grave.

Po, do you think I am pregnant?

His unseeing eyes met mine and I knew that he did not think, but knew that I was pregnant.

I couldn't be pregnant! I took seabane! Thoughts whorled threw my mind...

We arrived in the town before dust a week later. Po and I had barley talked; we were both trapped in our own minds to think about talking! I am pregnant! I was going against everything I had wanted in life! I don't want children! My children would despise me! What child wanted the "Lady Killer" as a mother!

And what if the child is graced! Then Randa would want the child! And I would not let them have her!

My mind stopped- What makes you think it is a girl? I asked myself, placing my hand on my belly.

Could it be that I loved her already? I slowed my horse, Po did also. Could Po love our daughter already? I looked at him; knowing he heard me. He eyes showed that he was guilty as I was. How could I love something I didn't know?

"My lady, I am pleased to tell you that you are pregnant." The mid-wife said happily. I wanted to punch the lady right there. Po put a hand on my shoulder to calm me.

"I can't be pregnant! I took seabane!" I said holding up the purple flower; the woman chuckled.

"I have seen this plant before; it is not the plant that prevents women from bearing a child." She walked to her cabinet and pulled out a jar. Within the jar was a small purple flower that looked similar to the ones I was holding. The jar purple flowers had darker peddles and shorter leaves than the ones I were holding.

Po took the flowers from my hand and threw them in the waste basket.

"Congratulations." the midwife whispered and walked into another room.

I laid on the bed after arriving at the inn in silence. Staring at the ceiling I wondered what I should do. Po lay on the bed beside me and laid his hand on mine which was on my belly.

"I think you will be a wonderful mother." He whispered. I shook my head; tears falling freely, "we could give her to a family that can't bear a child." He replied to my tears. I just wanted her to be happy and live a good life with good parents. "She will have good parents. I'll make sure of it." I sat there a moment. "We could go to Lienid for you to have the child; if she was graced then she will have a free life. My mother could watch over her from afar, my brothers too; if you wanted them to." I couldn't disagree it was a good way to give her a happy life.

I placed my hand on his cheek, "We will travel to Lienid for the birth, and do as you have said." I closed my eyes and lay there until I made myself fall asleep.

Po had been more careful with me, I wasn't allowed to practice fighting with him anymore, we got rid of the "seabane" I picked, and we never rode past dark or before light. Even more, I had to eat every time we stopped for the horses.

We were sitting before the sun shone in the sky eating bread, cheese and berries.

"I hope she isn't graced." I said before I could stop myself, Po looked at me.

"As do I." he said, "But if she is graced then I hope it is something that is useless to the King, but it is something she can be happy with."

"Yes." I whispered, "I wish that also."

We arrived at the ships, I had a lump forming on my belly. She was there, moving and forming with me.

It was many mornings on the ship that I awoke with sickness. I never had sea sickness before so I assumed it was the child within me.

When the ship docked in Lienid, I had to keep a robe around me. It was very obvious that I was bearing a child; the crew of the ship had started to wonder, Po told me.

We rode to Po's castle as quickly as Po allowed me to go.

I was sitting at the table, nibbling at bread when the Queen arrived. She let herself in and I stood to greet her.

"No, no, no. You needn't rise for a visit. I just wanted to be the first to see you when I heard you arrived." She walked to me and kissed me on the forehead. "Where's Po?" she asked sitting next to me.

"I haven't a clue," I said, "but he should be on his way here." I smiled, as if on cue, Po decided to walk through the door.

"Hello Mother." He said while giving her a hug and kissing her cheeks. He pulled up a chair next to her. "Mother, I have a favor to ask of you." He looked down at his hands.

"Yes. Anything. I only ask to what it is for." She said, strongly.

Po moved to my side, and helped me stand. I removed the robe and showed her what lie underneath. I was wearing baggy clothing, but there was a clear view of my belly. Her eyes were wide for a moment and then were filled with happiness as she jumped out of her chair and rained kisses and hugs of congratulation on the both of us. When she settled down she was so joyous that she couldn't sit still.

"The favor we have to ask of you is that you watch over the child when Katsa and I can't." He said quietly. The queen calmed, and became sad.

"Can I assume that you are not keeping the child?" she asked, I nodded my head.

"I will do it anyway. My only condition is that she needs to stay in Lienid, so that I can visit her when I wish to do so." She said forcefully.

"That is what we had planned. I wanted to have her here in Lienid so that if she may be graced then she will be free." I said, branching on the verge of tears.

"She will be greatly loved." Po said to me. Tears now fell down my face freely.

"Come. You need your rest, I doubt that a ship cabin is a good place for a pregnant woman." Po's mother said as she rose. She took my elbow and led me to the bedroom so that I may rest.

I slept comfortably knowing that my daughter will be loved.

Soooo, how did I do?
