AN. HEY! :D I'm back! Thank you so much for the reviews. It's been torture not been able to write more. I hope you like this next chapter.
Sanguine's POV
Funny-bones cocks his head and I can tell he's confused. I shove the litter in his hands and rush to the bathroom and pound on the door, "Valkyrie! Open the door! We're leavin'."
The door slowly opens and she pops her head out. Her eyes are red, from cryin'. I'll find out why later. Right now I'm makin' sure she's safe.
She looks confused and scared. Why would she be scared?
"What do you mean we're leaving?"
I take her hand and pull her close, "I mean we're goin' to Ireland now. Dusk knows yer alive."
Funny-bones comes over and joins us. "Get ready to go, Sanguine you tunnel us to Ireland as soon as you're ready. Only pack a small bag of things. You can go shopping when we get Val to safety."
I shake my head, "No I'll come back later and get my stuff. We're goin' now." I say quickly. As I take Funny-bones by the wrist Valkyrie puts her hand on my arms.
"Wait. I need to tell you something."
"What? Now? We have to get ye to safety!"
"Yes now. You need to hear this before we go to Ireland."
"Why?"
She sighs and as she speaks her voice cracks, "Because, after you hear this you not want anything to do with me afterwards."
I pull her tightly against me, "You're crazy if ye think that."
Funny-bones says quietly, "I'll leave you two alone." Then he leaves.
Valkyrie fidgets with her hands. "What's wrong lil darlin'?"
Valkyrie's POV
Oh God, here it goes. What will he do? Will he leave me? Will he hate me?
I take a deep breath. I have to tell him. He needs to know.
I clear my throat. I open my mouth but before I can speak a wave of dizziness washes over me. Sanguine clutches my tighter. "Are ye okay?"
I nod, "I…I'm fine." But just after I say that darkness comes over me.
Sanguine's POV
"Valkyrie!" I shout as I hold her. She's passed out. What's wrong with her?
Funny-bones runs in and sees Valkyrie. "What happened?"
"I dunno she just fainted."
"Oh God the baby must be making her dehydrated." He says to himself.
Did he just say BABY!
"What baby?" I shout, "Is she pregnant?"
I can see him hesitate for a moment and then he sighs and nods.
I laugh. I'm gonna be a daddy. I don't know whether to be happy or scared.
I can't think of this right now. I have to help her.
"Funny-bones, hold on tight. We're goin' to Ireland. Now."
He grabs onto my wrist and I tunnel us into the ground.
Valkyrie's POV
I groan and open my eyes. I look around to see I'm in my room at Gordon's. How did I get here?
The last think I remember is when I was about to tell Sanguine about the baby. My eyes widen.
Sanguine. Where is he?
I sit up and look around, only to see Sanguine looking out the window.
"Hi." I say quietly.
"Hi," He doesn't look at me. Something's wrong. "How are ye feelin'?"
"Good, I guess. What happened?"
"You were dehydrated. Well really the baby was making you dehydrated." I gasp. He nods, "Yeah I know." Now he looks at me. His face is blank, "Why didn't ye tell me?"
"I was scared." I look down at my hands.
"Why?"
"I didn't know how'd you'd take it. I was scared you'd leave me." I sneak a peek at him, he looks a mixture between understanding and angry.
"How could you think that?"
"You've never said if you did or didn't want children before. I was scared you wouldn't want this baby. And I'm not giving this baby up," I say firmly.
We stay quiet for a minute and then I break the silence, "So what do you think?"
He comes over and lies down beside me and pulls me to him. "I think I love you even more and I love this baby and I want to raise it with you."
I smile widely and kiss him.
Sanguine's POV
I couldn't be happier. I'm gonna be a daddy in nine months. I lay there with a sleepin' Valkyrie in my arms. Many questions go through my head.
Will I be a good daddy?
What if I do somethin' wrong?
But more importantly, what if Dusk finds out about the baby?
What will he do?
AN. So what do you think? I hope you liked it. Please R&R. Until next time.
