"Oh..." Bluebeard slowly pulled his hand back. Snow couldn't help but smirk at his current situation. "Well then..." he cleared his throat. "I'll just take my leave now."

Snow took a quick moment to glance at the Fables who were dancing, just to make sure she didn't seem like she was staring.

Beauty and Beast were still both dancing up a storm, not a single care in the word as Beast dipped her. Bigby and Faith seemed to be alright after Bigby got the basics, and lastly Grendel and Holly, certainly a bit more more awkward for them since Jack convinced them to dance at least once, but they seemed to be enjoying themselves. Even with the pairs of Fables dancing she couldn't shake the though of Bloody Mary. The charming woman wasn't intimated by Bluebeard at all, her fierce eyes gave off the impression she was fearless. It was pointless trying to shake any thoughts of her, she turned around to look at Mary again and almost jumped.

Standing right in front of her with big hazel eyes was none other then Mary herself.

A smile as sleek as black leather formed on her lightly glossed lips.

"Hey,"

Snow White sighed as she and Mary sat on a eggplant coloured couch. Mary's head rested on Snow's lap, her eyes shut as her wife idly ran her fingers through her short black hair. Bloody Mary dozed off half an hour ago, clearly exhausted from the string of tests, worry, and the not knowing the fate of the much wanted pregnancy. Knowing something they yearned for and worked so hard for gone within a short amount of time...lowering her gaze to her partner a small smile spread across her face. To take her mind off the tests, Snow decided to force herself to stop thinking about it until Swineheart arrived with the results.

Instead of dwelling on that Snow took in the lovely image of Bloody Mary's sleeping face. Her mouth although open, didn't contain any traces of drool, her lips formed the smallest of openings, her freckled cheeks brought out the cuteness factor Mary had.

Snow White glanced uneasily at Mary's abdomen, not a single sign of a bump. Of course there wouldn't be a bulge or anything,they did the last round of in vitro during December, it's only been a couple weeks... she should had known it was too good to be true.

'No, don't think like that... you and Mary worked forever to get this far.' she mentally scolded herself for such low thoughts. Wanting to block such thoughts out Snow returned to focusing on Mary's sleeping face.

"She's your daughter!"

"I'm not having some faggot for a daughter!"

Mary hugged her knees to her chest, her back pressed against the brown walls of her room. She winced with each word they yelled at each other. Her mother begging him to stay and they could work it out, her father yelling that they needed to 'fix' Mary. Seemed like just barely an hour ago the they were eating her mom's famous owl stew... then after dropping a bomb all hell broke lose. Mary shut her eyes tightly, all she wanted to do was block them out... the room out... just block it all out...

"Mary?"

Her eyes popped open upon hearing her wife's sweet voice. It was then she noticed how tense her body was. Slowly she eased he body and looked up at Snow.

"How long was I out?"

"Half an hour...how do you feel?" Snow asked in worry.

Mary slowly got her head off of Snow's lap and sat up. Still no cramping... "I'll be fine once I know if it's okay..." she glanced at her currently flat stomach, wishing she was a little further along so she could feel a kick or movement to reassure her. "Swineheart done yet?"

"I'm afraid not..." her voice although calm sounding Mary could easily tell deep down Snow a worried mess, just like her.

It was an odd feeling, aside from the constant vomiting she didn't feel any different, it haven't really sunk in that Mary was pregnant... on her guess it was just the slack of symptoms which were to surely change soon enough, if she was still pregnant that is.

Bloody Mary didn't even want to think about a miscarriage, but yet it was there in her mind. Her wife must had sense her distressing thoughts and cleared her throat to speak. "Bad dream? Your body was tensing up."

"Yeah..." Mary confessed scratching the back of her next. Fuck, of all times for her to be reminded of THAT moment in her life.

"What was it about?"

Bloody Mary knew Snow was only asking out of concern, but she wished she would just stop asking.

"... Not sure." her stomach flipped, she hated having to lie to her wife, but matters like this were something she didn't feel like discussing.

"Want me to get you a drink?" her partner offered. Easily able to pick up on the worry that lingered in Snow White's tone, it was then Mary realize how thirsty she was.

"Sure... Some water would be nice." Water would be a bonus for both of them. Mary was thirsty and Snow needed something to make her feel not so helpless. She suppose it had to do with her job, being deputy mayor and all, Snow hated not being able to do anything for someone in need of help... it was a trait Mary had always adored about her.

Just as Snow got up Swineheart entered the room. Both women quickly turned there heads to the doctor. Bloody Mary could feel her body tense up yet again, an hallow feeling filled the depths of her stomach. Finally, the long awaited news of the fate of her pregnancy. It was the not knowing that killed her, but know maybe it was the actual knowing that was going to be the death of her... If she suffered a miscarriage... No, she didn't want to think about it.

"Swineheart is-" Snow was cut off as Swineheart raised his hand, quickly shushing her.

"Everything's just fine," With this her body eased up in an instant, she was still pregnant... what a relief. "You most likely just over did it at some point during today." he informed.

Both Snow and Mary sighed in relief. "Oh thank god." Snow said.

"I would suggest you take it easy, take a day or two off work, relax a bit. Around twenty percent of women have unexplained bleeding during pregnancy." Swineheart stated. "Everything's just fine, no need to worry."
