" Hello," Jack said as he walked in the door.
" Hey." Irina said as she stopped meditating and got up off the floor. " What did Kendall want?"
" He wanted me to intercept some information."
" Where?"
" What does it matter?"
" Well you didn't call and I figured that ment that you went somewhere and I wanted to know where."
" It was in LA. Look I'm really tired could we talk about the – the thing later."
" Yeah."
" Jack?" Irina called getting back in the bed from the bathroom. " Jack please wake up."
" What?"
" We need to talk."
" I have work in the morning."
" I know but-"
" Your situation isn't going to be changing, we can talk about this later."
" It can change if you want it to."
" What?"
" Jack do you want a baby? Because if you don't I don't have to have one and I can –"
" You'd do that?" Jack asked sitting up.
" If you want me too and if you do then we have to talk about this now."
" I don't want you to- No! I'm surprised."
" So am I, I certainly didn't think I was pregnant especially considering what I've been through."
" What?"
" A long time ago I was told I couldn't have kids-more kids."
" What?"
" When I was in the KGB it wasn't uncommon that I'd be punished if you get my drift especially when we were married."
" They tortured you when we were married?"
" Not when I was pregnant, I gave them information then but when I wouldn't they would. It doesn't matter now-"
" It matters. The marks you had and said that you bumped in to desks or whatever that was from being tortured because you wouldn't give information." Jack asked surprised.
" I told you I didn't want to be in the KGB or betray you."
" I'm sorry."
" Don't be sorry it's not your fault I was a stupid teenager."
" I'm sorry for that but for the baby too. I've been a jerk but-I'm scared."
" You? Scared? Never!" Irina said smiling. " Of what?"
" Being a dad again. I didn't do that great with Sydney and now I'm even older and –"
" You will be an excellent dad. You were a great dad with Sydney and now you can be even better with the new baby." Irina assured him.
" Do you feel okay? I heard you in the bathroom." Jack said running his hands through her hair.
" Yes, considering. I'm remembering the other reason I didn't want to have anymore children."
" I love you."
" I love you too. I don't think we should tell people about the baby."
" Why? I'm sure Sydney would want to know about her sibling."
" I know but something could go wrong and I don't want to put Sydney through that, I just want to wait until it's safer."
" We can do what ever you want."
