AN: This chapter is set within the episode "Exposure" from Season 2. Some of the dialogue at the beginning was borrowed from that episode, so if it seems familiar it isn't mine. This chapter contains strong smut (just giving a heads-up).

Chapter 6

The next day Autumn was standing at the desk with Normal, Max and OC when Alec walked into Jam Pony.

Snapping the paper in his hands, Alec looked at Noraml and said, "Here you go boss. One hot run to 50 Maple in a kind and courteous fashion by yours truly," before laying the paper down and leaning across the desk to give Autumn a kiss.

"That's my rockstar," Normal told him smirking.

"Are you kidding me? One package?" Max asked, watching Autumn shake her head and Normal smirk. "That's it all day?"

"Quality not quantity Max," Alec said winking at Autumn.

"That's what all men tell themselves so they can sleep at night," OC told the arrogant male.

Looking like he didn't quite believe what she'd said, Alec looked at Autumn and asked, "What do you think Fall? Quality or Quantity?"

"I personally like your quality within my quantity," she said as Sketchy rode in on his bike.

"Greetings ally all. Great news my brothers. You are looking at the newest reporter for America's fastest growing newspaper," Sketchy told his friends, holding up a copy of New World Weekly.

"New World Weekly," OC said as Normal cut in, "You're not reporting anything on Jam Pony time mister."

"No worries, it's strictly free lance," Sketchy defended as OC took the paper from him so she and Alec could glance through it. "Dropped my resume off last month and they finally called me. Said they're willing to give a hungry young news hound a chance."

Crossing his arms, Alec looked at his friend. "And what exactly are you gonna be doing for 'um Sketch?" he asked, slightly concerned.

"I'm gonna hunt down mutants in my spare time and immortalize their horribly deformed faces for tabloid posterity," Sketchy said in his most serious voice causing Normal to chuckle and walk away.

Max and Autumn both looked at Alec, waiting for him to say something, but all he could do was open his mouth willing something to come out. Finally Autumn said, "That's just great."

"Yeah," Sketchy said proudly.

"Except," OC interrupted, "there are no mutants and that rag is full of lies."

"Wait until I get my first exclusive, in the mean time everybody," Sketchy started to yell, holding up the paper, "Drinks on me at Crash."

OC walked away as Autumn joined Alec and Max on the other side of the desk. Walking away from Normal, they stopped.

"This is not good," Autumn turned to look at her mate.

"No, no, I'm as worried about exposure as both of you are, especially with a baby on the way," Alec said.

"I'd believe that if you'd cover your barcode better Monty Cora," Max snapped.

"Look," Alec said, "I seriously doubt White and his merry band of transgenic hunters get there tips from New World Weekly. Besides, this is Sketchy we're talking about here. What's the odds he stumbles across an actual Manticore alum whose stupid enough to let him snap a shot?"

"Hey guys!" Sketchy yelled from behind them, causing them to turn around where he quickly snapped a picture of his three friends before walking away.

"You were saying?" Autumn asked, as Max rolled her eyes and walked away.

"I was saying go get your stuff because we have an appointment," he said, placing his hands on her waist and gently pulling her against him.

"What appointment?"

"Logan got us an appointment with a doctor friend of his who knows what we are and will not only keep his mouth shut but destroy records. If we were back at Manticore you and the baby would have been checked once a week by a team of doctors," he whispered.

"Yes, but if we were there, we wouldn't be together and then even if I was pregnant, we wouldn't be expectant parents just donors."

"Yes I know all this," he said, gently kissing her, "But my point was that I'd like us to have at least a check-up. And before you tell me, I already know that it's a long shot, but maybe we can find out what we're having."

"Well, Autumn you're in excellent physical shape and from what you know of your previous medical history, you've only gained about 15 pounds and considering everything," Dr. Carr said, moving his hand around trying to indicate the everything he couldn't say aloud, "I'm not concerned. You'll probably put on another 5 to 10 pounds which will be mostly baby weight, and your pregnancy will get much more noticeable as the baby does that. I think you look great. Now, the technician did your ultrasound when you first arrived. She says that the baby is right on target with the time you think you got pregnant which puts you at 31 weeks. Now, do you want to know..."

"Yes," Alec interrupted, causing Autumn to smile at his enthusiasm.

"You couldn't even let the man finish the sentence?" she joked.

"Nope," he smiled, "I really want to know."

Chuckling, Dr. Carr watched the male transgenic and was amazed at the difference between the old arrogant/bored Alec and the new happy/excited Alec. "Autumn, if you don't want to know, I can tell Alec in private."

"Do you really think he'll be able to keep it a secret? You might as well tell both of us, I'd know by the end of the day anyway."

Nodding, "You're probably right. In that case, congratulations, it's a boy."

On their way home, Alec pulled Autumn into a store to look around. He wanted to see if they had any good infant clothes because they had 9 weeks to get everything they were going to need. He was really happy that they didn't have to buy just white or another basic color they could throw in some blues and greens.

While they were looking at shirts his phone rang, "Yeah."

"Alec, Logan thinks he might have a lead on Ray White. I'm going with him, but I need you to be prepared if we need you," Max told him.

"You sure you and Logan can handle this?" he asked, showing Autumn a pre-pulse cartoon shirt to which she shook her head no.

"Right now, I'm not sure what this is, but if I need you I'll call, or if you don't hear from me in 36 hours. Once I know I'll send you coordinates. What Logan?" Alec heard Max yell. "Logan wants to know how it went today."

"Dr. Carr was great and it's a boy." Alec listened as Max relayed his message to Logan. "He says that's great like he was happy for you, and then mumbled oh no another Alec."

Laughing Alec hung up the phone. "How about these?" he asked Autumn holding up a pair of 0-3mos camo pants.

After his shower that night Alec found Autumn laying on the couch reading through the baby name book they'd bought earlier that day. She had a piece of paper with a few notes written down.

"Do you have a middle name?" she asked him when he picked her up and sat her on his lap so he could read with her.

"Ross."

"Really, your initals spell 'ARM'?"

"I'd never really noticed til now smart ass," he said, gently poking her in the ribs causing her to squirm. "Why?"

"Hmmm, Ross is Latin for attractive. Suits you," she smiled at him.

Smirking at her, he asked, "What does Alec mean?"

"Greek for high-minded. High-minded means showing or having high moral principles, and that my mate doesn't sound like you at all."

"Boy you're full of smart ass remarks tonight," he said, leaning in to kiss her neck. "I wonder what middle name Logan will put on your papers."

"Devon. He called me yesterday and asked me if I had a preference."

"Autumn Devon," Alec said testing her name. "Autumn Devon McDowell. It'll do. So what other names have made the list?"

"Alexander, Benjamin, Blake, Caden, Demitri, and Haven. I've only reached the H's."

"Benjamin is out," he told her. "I had a twin, 493, and he called himself Ben. He was one of the original 12 that escaped and eventually he went psychotic and killed a bunch of people, sending my ass to psy-ops to make sure it wasn't genetic."

"Sorry, that must have been hard," she moved around so she could see him.

"I never met him, but Max thought I was him the first time she met me. Just the name is out. I like Alexander but I'd worry when it got shortened to Alex."

"That's actually why I put it down. I figured it was close enough to your name without it being the same. Then I figured we'd give him your middle name if you had one."

"Alexander Ross McDowell. Alexander Ross McDowell. I actually think I like it. What does Alexander mean?"

"Great leader."

Sitting on the couch with Autumn in his lap he thought about the name for a few minutes while playing with a few strands of Autumn's hair. "Do you like it?" he asked her.

"Yes."

"So Alexander Ross is our final decision?" he asked as he started to nibble on the back of neck.

She shivered a bit to feel him kiss her neck, her head tilting a bit to the side to give him more access to it. "I think so," she said, closing her eyes as she enjoyed his touch.

Alec whispered, "Good," before he slowed down to kiss in one spot as his tongue folded out against her flesh. He sucked gently on her skin as she relaxed back against him.

Autumn softly moaned, eyelashes fluttering against her cheeks. She could feel his lips and tongue on her shoulders and neck and then move up her neck. Alec's tongue and lips on her ear were driving her nuts as she leaned back against him. Guiding his hand down over her hip and up some beneath the edge of her shirt, her fingers intertwined with his before they grazed over her smooth mound. "God, you drive me nuts," she admitted on a soft whisper.

"Mmmm," Alec murmured, feeling her press his hand into her wet flesh, his fingers opening her pussy lips to slide them up and down. He could feel his cock get thicker and harder as his fingers tickled her clit and his lips sucked on her earlobe.

Autumn groaned helplessly, her head falling back against his strong shoulder. She could feel his fingers part her moist nether lips and she shivered delectably as they flicked over her hardening clit. One hand slid back behind and between them to feel the thick, hard bulge in his pants. "Mmmmm baby," she purred.

Alec couldn't help but get a little aggressive as he shoved a finger inside of her, pushing it deep as he pushed his bulge against her ass as he felt her soft hand squeeze at it. "Oh god," he mumbled, starting to leave several hickies on her neck so that everyone could see what she had been up to, "You're so fucking hot."

Autumn groaned, loving it when he got aggressive. She wasn't sure whether to thrust her hips forward onto his fingers more or to push her ass back against his hard bulge. Her fingers slid down his muscled thigh as her own parted more. "Oh baby," she moaned through a soft murmur, "So hot for you."

Alec added a second finger inside of her cunt, twirling them around deep inside of her like he could stir her into a frenzy just with the movement of his digits. "You're so fucking wet baby," he moaned.

Autumn gasped for breath as he added another finger and pushed back against his boxers. She could feel the outline of his hard cock as it ground against her. She slipped her shirt off letting it fall to the ground, leaving her naked body open to his will. Her hand pushed into his boxers as he fingered her wet cunt. "Oooooo... so hard, baby... just like I like it," she whispered with a sultry smile.

"Tell me what you want," he said, thrusting his cock into her hand so that she could feel the sticky precum oozing out from his swollen cock head. "Tell me how you want it," he said as he started jabbing his fingers in and out of her. His thumb rubbed against her clit as he looked down over her shoulder to see her nipples turning rock hard on her heaving chest.

Autumn gasped, his driving fingers making her mind whirl as her fingers wrapped around his cock. She stroked it, getting it ready for her body as she groaned, "I don't care... just take me, Alec! God, I want you so badly!"

"Mmmmmm, yeah Fall...," he groaned as he picked her up and carried her to their room. He gently laid her against the bed so that her ass was in the air and handed her a pillow to lean on. When he was sure she was comfortable, he slapped each perfectly rounded cheek playfully as he smiled down to see how heavy she was breathing now. Pushing his boxers down, he exposed his rock hard cock before lifting his shirt up and off his well-formed chest.

Autumn gasped as he suddenly pushed her down against the bed. Her lithe form draped over the side, brown hair spilling out like a halo around her slender shoulders. Her ass was thrust up into the air and legs spread as she cried out in surprise, feeling his stinging hand make contact with her ass. Moaning uncontrollably, her fingers curled into the bed coverlet as she began to beg, "Yesssss... please... fuck me, baby."

Alec reached down to grab his cock as he guided it to her wet cunt. He let her feel his cock head rub up against her clit before he slid it inside. Then, grabbing her hips forcefully, he thrust himself deep inside, pulling her hips against his as he hit her cervix with one powerful thrust.

Autumn moaned, wiggling against his cock head as it rubbed her throbbing clit and then yelped in surprise as he suddenly slammed deep inside of her. She could feel his strong fingers dig into her hips as her head lifted, her lips formed into a small 'o' as she groaned deep.

Alec pulled back and then shoved himself back in, not going fast but instead, using power as he slowly pulled his cock back almost to the point of where it falls out before slamming it inside again. He seemed to hit her cervix almost every time as the bed creaked with his hard thrust.

Autumn cried out helplessly, long lashes fluttering closed over her bright green eyes as the powerful sensations rippled through her body. She knew Alec could feel her tremble beneath his hands as her cunt walls clamped down on his cock with each thrust as if unwilling to let go. Helpless whimpers escaped her lips with each one of his slams forward. "Yesssss," is all she could manage to moan in response.

Autumn cried out deeply as his hand suddenly wrapped in her long hair, yanking back. Her whole body shuddered in response, knowing he knew that that simple act alone drove her past the edge as her first orgasm ripped through her. She shuddered hard over his hard cock as it thrust powerfully into her. She felt completely dominated by him as she screamed in delight, her back arching hard as her orgasm only seemed to grow more powerful with each of his thrusts. Her head thrashed some on the bed as his body continued to drive forward, impaling her over and over again. Jerking hard beneath him as his fingers touched her clit, a scream ripped from her throat as her cunt walls clenched around him.

Alec moaned out as he thrust deep inside of her, holding it as he exploded. "Oh fuck baby," he said, his head falling forward a bit as he wiped some sweat from his eyes.

Autumn gasped harshly for breath. Whimpering helplessly, she managed to whisper, glancing up to him with a soft grin, "What...brought...that on?"

Alec leaned down to kiss her gently on the lips before he fell onto the bed next to her, trying to catch his breath. "You're just too damn irresistible," he said with a grin.
