A Little Easier, Maybe Not

Previously: "Oh god I'm going to be a mommy and Connor might not live through the night."
"Don't think that way." Fred said. "You'll get through this and in the end Connor will be right there with you."
"Promise?" Dawn chocked out.
Fred nodded, "Now I think you should go tell Angel."
A/N: this chapter continues some fluffiness, which I thought everyone needed before the rest of the story. Enjoy!
Dreams aren't reality
"Fred what am I going to do?" Dawn asked as she finally calmed down.
"Have you decided if you're going to keep the baby?" Fred said as she stroked Dawn's hair.
"I have to." Dawn said simply. Fred nodded accepting her answer.
"Well in that case I believe that you should go to sleep, it's late and you've had a long day." Fred got up and tucked Dawn into the hospital bed. As much as Dawn would deny it she was very tired and sleep sounded very good. She was asleep within seconds.
Connor wrapped his arms around Dawn. Her stomach was showing now and Connor had become even more protective. Dawn was waited on hand and foot, not that she was complaining though.
She leaned into his embrace, loving the feeling of being close to him.
"Have you come up with any names for the baby yet?" She asked her fiancé.
"I've thought about it but I haven't come up with anything yet." He said as he moved to kiss her neck. Dawn moaned slightly at his touch.
"Do you want it to be a girl or a boy?" She asked turning to face him.
"Baby, you know that I don't care as long as it's healthy." He said, "Although a boy would be nice. You know so I could teach him to fight."
"Oh know my baby isn't going to be taught to fight." Dawn said wrapping her arms around her belly, the smile still on her face. Seeing the slight disappointment on his face she changed her answer slightly, "Well maybe he can be a little."
Connor, now extremely happy pulled Dawn closer, leaning down capturing her lips in a passionate kiss.
"I love you, Connor." She said when they parted.
"I love you, Dawn." He said resuming their kiss.
Dawn woke up to the sound of the door opening; the creak could wake the dead. She smiled remembering her dream until reality hit her. She looked up, a now blank expression on her, to see Angel moving to the side of her bed.
"Uh, sorry I didn't mean to wake you." He said sitting down.
"No it's ok, don't worry about it." Dawn said sitting up slightly.
"I wouldn't have bothered you except I have to talk to you about something involving Connor." Angel said nervously. He knew that Dawn wasn't going to like what he was going to tell her. He himself didn't like what he had to tell her.
Upon her look of understanding he slowly started.
A/N: I know I said I wouldn't have another chapter up for awhile but I was trying to write a World Civ essay and this is what happens when I try to do that and yes it is a cliffhanger. I know you're all on the edge of your seats waiting to see what happens. Happy or sad ending? Please review and tell me. And yes Bunny I know you want a happy ending.
