I don't own the night world … yet!

Enjoy read and review :)

Mary-Lynnette has been living at the daybreak mansion for a month now and she has fully adjusted to life here. Ash has truly changed but he is still a smart ass, he has helped save so many people and she is proud of him. "Mare, mare, MARE!" oh my god what does he want now, mare was cooking dinner, she walked out of the kitchen and Ash came running up to her "what?" she yelled and he looked slightly hurt, oh crap he probably hates me now, "wow mare, why are you so snappy, It wasn't my fault I lost your iPod in a game of poker with Quinn and Rashel " he said stepping back, "sorry I didn't mean to snap I am just stressed – wait you lost my iPod in a game of poker?" she put her hands on her hips "erm I love you?" he said and he just made her laugh.

Mare really didn't want to talk about this, she sighed heavily and ran her hands through her hair, "so what did you want?" she asked him slightly less frustrated but still stressed, he looked concerned "I wanted to ask you if you wanted to go out for dinner tonight?" he asked, unbelievable h knows I am cooking dinner! "Unbelievable, un – freaking believable!" she screamed so loud that he jumped back and Hannah appeared in the doorway "mare what's wrong?" he asked slightly confused about the situation.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Do you ever listen to what I say or pay any attention to what I do?" she screamed and Jez and Morgead appeared in the doorway next to Hannah, "of course I do, mare" he said "oh yeah, then why did you ask me out for dinner?" she screamed attracting a bigger audience, "I want to take my girlfriend out for a meal, some girls say ok when a guy asks her out, they don't do this!" he yelled back and mare threw her hands in the air frustrated, Thierry was going to stop them but Galen and Keller stopped him, "oh I am sorry to disappoint you Ash but I am not like the cheap skanks you slept with in the past and I deserve –" she was cut off my sizzling coming from the oven "SHIT!" she yelled and ran away from Ash,

"Hey were not done here!" he yelled

"I am trying to save tonight's dinner, yes that was what I was doing, I was cooking dinner for everyone in the mansion, I told you yesterday that I was cooking dinner but just didn't listen to me!" she shouted trying to save the food, Ash realised what an ass he had been but he couldn't stop now he still needed to fight now the adrenalin built up, mare was swearing and banging the pots around, "mare…" he said softly but she didn't want any of it, he took a step closer and she turned around "just get away from me!" she screamed but he didn't leave he took a step forward so she screamed in his face and threw a knife at him, he dodged it and all of the other daybreakers looked at her astonished.

She slid down the wall and sat on the floor and began to cry her eyes out, when Ash went to go near her she screamed at him to go away, Hannah walked in and sat next to mare and comforted her, Thierry told Hannah to give mare some space and everyone else left.

Mare sat there on the floor crying her eyes out, Ash came and sat beside her and pulled her onto his lap and held her against his chest, "I am so sorry mare, I should have listened and I never meant to make you this upset" he said stroking her hair. She whipped her tears and looked up at his ever changing eyes, "Ash I am sorry I threw the knife at you and screamed in your face and called you a bad boyfriend" she said and he just nodded the realised something,

"You never called me a bad boyfriend" he pointed out

"Yeah but I was thinking it and I am sorry, you're not you are amazing, I love you" she said snuggling into his chest, "I love you too mare, and I am sorry about not listening to you" he apologised again, they were about to kiss but the fire alarm went off and mare saw smoke coming from the oven, "SHIT!" she yelled opening all the windows and trying to clear the smoke, the meat was ruined, she slammed it down on the counter and began to cry "why does everything happen to me?" she cried out and Ash held her in his arms and let her cry.

"Mare, are you going to tell me what's going on?" he asked once she calmed down and she just looked up at him "what do you mean?" she asked innocently, he pulled her over to a chair and when he sat down she climbed on his lap, "well no one gets this upset over a ruined meal, especially when we can order pizza, using Thierry's credit card" he said and she slouched against his chest and let out a sigh, " I slaved over the oven for 5 hours to make the perfect meal and it is ruined but your right there is something else going on" she confessed, Ash looked down at her and held her tight "well then are you going to tell me?" he asked and mare looked up,

"Okay, Ash I'm pregnant" Ash's jaw fell to the floor and his eyes were wide, he took in a deep breath and managed to say "what?"
