"Are you ok?" Quistis asked him.
"Yeah...um...sure." He stammered. He wasn't really sure he should be there.
He wandered around the apartment, not knowing what to say.
"So, uh, where is your husband, or boyfriend, or whatever?" he asked.
"What? Oh...I"m not with anyone at the moment."
"But you're..."
"Oh. Well, it was a one night stand..." she told him, in a sad tone.
His brow furrowed.
"Does the father know of the child?" he asked her, ready to go kick the ass of the man who got Quistis knocked up.
"He does now." She told him in a matter of fact tone of voice.
"Oh? And what did he say when you told him you are pregnant with his child? Why isn't he here with you if he knows? Didn't you just say you weren't with anyone?"
"Well, right now he seems very upset..."
"What?! Don't tell me he blames you that he isn't going to take any responsiblity. If that were my child..."
"It is."
"Pardon me? What?"
"It is your child Irvine. You were the one night stand, remember? The night you saved me from those monsters, then came here, and we..."
His eyes grew wide. His knees felt weak. Him, a father. He couldn't believe it. He and Quistis were going to have a life together. He then took three strides over to her, lifter her up in the air and spun her around in a circle.
"Irvine! Put me down!" she shreaked.
He gently put her down, and tipped his hat, apologizing to her.
"So, is the baby ok? Everything with you ok?"
She bit her bottom lip, not sure if she wanted to tell him about her attacker a few weeks ago, or the weird glowing pain she keeps getting at night.
"Quistis."
"Well, I'm not sure if everything is ok. You see, I get this pain at night, and my abdomen glows. And a few weeks ago, some guy came in here and attacked me. He wanted to kill both me and the baby."
Irvine got a concerned look on his face. Quistis can't stay here alone. Not with all the goings on. Then he had an idea. He went into her bedroom, flew her closet door open and grabbed some of her clothes. He looked under her bed, saw her suitcase and grabbed it. Irvine threw it on the bed, slung it open, and crammed her clothes in it.
"What are you doing?!?!" she exclaimed as she ran into her bedroom.
"You're not safe here. Not by yourself. I"m taking you home."
"Home?"
"Yes, home to Balamb Garden. Where you belong." he told her as he crammed more clothes in the suitcase.
"But I belong here. I have students to teach, papers to grade..."
"No use arguing. You're coming with me. Trust me, ok?"
With that said, he closed her suitcase, grabbed her hand, and together they fled her apartement and caught the train to Balamb.
"Yeah...um...sure." He stammered. He wasn't really sure he should be there.
