Brennan made himself a melted ham and cheese sandwich
shalimar drove around for a while and ended up stopping at the club she and the others would usually go to. she took off her helmet and set it on the bike as she went inside
Lexa woke up sometime later. The suns rays were turning a golden color. She saw Jesse still asleep and her hand somewhat unconsciously went to her stomach. She wasn't sure if it was steal real or not but something told her it was.
Jesse moved slightly in his sleep and moved his hand on lexas shoulder
Alexis was now out of the rec room and bugging Brennan to play dress up with her
"Alex hun I'm the wrong person to ask to play dolls or dress up," Brennan said.
but I'm bored And no one else is up
"Wanna go play outside?? That I can do."
Alexis " there is nothing outside
"The park??"
Alexis "OK"
"Okay to the car then. Race you there," Brennan smiled.
Alexis looked at Brennan before she ran to his car
"Ready set go!!" He grabbed the keys and hurried after her.
"Ooo fiesty arent we," the guy said half drunk.
shalimar pushed him away " back off you jerk"
"I don't like it when someone says no to me," he said in a warning tone
shalimar smirked at him " get used to it buddy"
He went after her again
shalimar kneed him " I'm warning u back off now
she was so tempted to call Brennan
Another man saw that and went over. "Hey that was the wrong move Missy." He grabbed her shoulder to turn her around.
shalimar punched him
two more moved after Shalimar after the first one stumbled back with a broken nose.
shalimar " stay away from me
"You started something so we're gonna finish it. We don't like little ladies starting things."
i didn't start it he did she defended herself
Four more came after her along with the other two. "Get her!!"
shalimar tried to get out of there but seemed to be cornered and had no way out but to fight
Two came at her first. The tried to grab her
shalimar kicked one and side swiped the other
One came at her and hooked her right in the face when she was distracted with one.
shalimar staggered back and could feel the blood coming out of her nose " u bastard" she went after him
He was knocked down by her. Three grabbed her off of him.
shalimar screamed and tried to get out of their grips
Sirens sounded and two cops came in. "What's the problem?? We heard there was someone creating trouble??"
They saw three people on the ground.
shalimar struggled to get free
The one Shalimar knocked down got up. "Yeah officer that's her. She was starting fights."
shalimar " u lie!!"
"She did this officer." The one she broke his nose came up front. "She broke my nose kicked him and then hooked another."
"Arrest her," the officer said to his partner.
He did as he was told and cuffed Shalimar.
"no u have it wrong i defended my self"
"Right now Miss I think what we see says otherwise," the cop said.
He led her away to the car.
shalimar tried to plead with them
They drove her to the station and put her in a cell. "Until we get the details you will be here for now. You'll get your phone call in a bit." They uncuffed her and locked the door, leaving.
shal " no i want it now!!!
The cops didn't answer her they left her alone.
shalimar took a few moments to calm down and noticed she had her ring "Brennan?"
"Yeah Shalimar I'm here. What you need Kitten?"
shalimar wanted to cry when she heard Brennan's voice
"Shal??" Brennan called.
shalimar sat on the cot in the cell " i..i have been arrested
"What why??" He couldn't just slam on the brakes like he wanted. Alexis was in the car and people were in front of him.
shalimar was quiet
shal " i beat up some people
"That's....umm why??"
it was self defense i swear
"Did you tell them that??"
Yeah, they don't believe me
"Well that's just great. See if they'll let you go and if not it's jail break time," Brennan smiled.
shalimar sighed "are..u mad?
"Me mad?? No just shocked and just laughing because Shalimar Fox got arrested for fighting."
that isn't funny Brennan i think he broke my nose
"Nah your not that easy to break Shal," Brennan laughed.
it hurts like hell and its bleeding
"Lean your head back and hold your nose that'll stop the bleeding."
shalimar did what Brennan said and laid down as well waiting for one of the idiots to come back
Lexa slipped out of Jesse's arms and headed to her room.
Jesse mumbled something but stayed asleep
Lexa went into her room and threw up then washed her mouth out and laid on the bed.
shalimar fell asleep waiting and woke up as she heard footsteps
"You can have you're call now. We are almost done and it looks like you will be going free."
shalimar got up and walked out of the cell
she went to the phones and called Brennan on his cell
Brennan pressed the talk button. "Hello??
get here now and pick me up" she said in the phone urgently
"Well blunt arent we. If I pick you up we're taking Alex to the park."
shalimar " Brennan I'm getting looks from a old guy here and i know that look please come get me or ill kill u i swear
Brennan laughed. "Yes honey I'm coming just stay put and don't go near the dude okay??"
shal " i wont she hung up and sat down away from the guy
Brennan got there in twenty minutes. "I'm here to pick up the woman that got into a fight at a club."
The officer nodded. "Yeah she's free to go she was defending herself. We got a witness to tell us what happened." He led him into the back and let Shalimar out.
shalimar seen Brennan and ran right into his arms
Alexis was up front asking questions about the gun the cop had
Brennan hugged Shalimar. "Okay kitten let's go get this kid to the park. She's been good about waiting."
shalimar nodded " anywhere but here is fine with me"
Brennan picked up Shalimar and carried her out. "Come on squirt let's go."
shalimar "Bren put me down" she said as Alexis came running
"As you wish my princess." He put her down and kissed her on the cheek. "Okay Squirt off to the park"
shalimar got into the car
Alexis hopped in as well
Brennan drove off. He parked and got out. The air was nice and fresh as the park, the sun keeping them warm in the cool breeze.
Alexis ran off to the swings and started to play
shalimar got out of the car and went to a nice shaded spot and sat down
"Shal you okay??" Brennan asked keeping an eye on Alexis.
shal "yeah just tired
Brennan sat beside her and put his arms around her. "Sleep then."
shalimar "sleep here with a bunch of noisy kids?
"Sure, hey you wanna have kids gotta get used to the noise," Brennan smiled.
shalimar leaned on Brennan and closed her eyes it didn't take her long to fall asleep
Lexa woke up feeling even worse.
Jesse was awake and on the computer
Lexa ran to the bathroom again.
Jesse heard lex and got up off the chair and headed to the bathroom "lex sweetie?" he could hear her "whats wrong
"I feel really sick," Lexa said softly.
Jesse " ill go get u something" he headed to the lab
Okay," Lexa whispered. Damn did I feel like this the first time?? Lexa wondered.
Jesse came back with a needle " i have something that will help your stomach feel better" he came in
Lexa was out of it and say it and scooted away. "No not that."
Jesse "lex?
"What is it??" Lexa asked, shaking a little. For some reason she was suddenly afraid of them.
Great now I gotta tell him. Lexa thought
"Will it hurt the baby??" Lexa asked quietly almost to where you couldn't hear her.
Jesse no its safe " he said then he looked at her "did u say baby?
Lexa nodded. She curled up into a fetal position in the corner.
Jesse almost fell
" i..when? how
"Guess Jess how do you think and when," Lexa said softly.
Jesse said nothing and realized when it happened he gave lexa the shot anyway " u should be fine soon" he pulled her into his arms
Lexa jumped a little when it hit her. She laid her head on her knees and groaned in mild sickness and pain
Jesse talked to her calmly "its OK baby it will be gone soon"
Lexa laid on the floor. "Its going to be like this for a while I know it," she whispered.
"ill be here with u
"Good. Where's Alex??"
Jesse " i thought she was with u but u are here"
"Find her Jess, please."
Jesse kissed lexa on the forehead and walked out to look for Alexis
"Brennan have u seen Alexis
"Yeah me and Shal have her, shes at the the park with us," Brennan said quietly into his comm ring so not to wake Shalimar.
Jesse "oh thank god and next time warn a guy"
"Sorry man you were asleep with Lexa I didn't want to wake you both up," Brennan smiled.
thats OK have fun" he went back to lexa and told her
"Okay," Lexa said and closed her eyes.
"Okay," Lexa said and closed her eyes. She wasn't asleep but just had her eyes closed
Jesse picked up lexa "come on to bed with u"
"But I'm not sleepy," Lexa mumbled.
well u need to relax Jesse said softly
"With the way I feel not sure if that's possible at the moment." She hung onto him.
Jesse " it will be gone soon"
"Good."
this stuff can calm shalimar it will make u feel better too"
"I haven't felt this sick since I got the flu years ago."
Jesse laid her on the bed and sat down next to her " it will be OK"
"Do you have anything important to do??" Lexa opened her eyes and looked at him. Her eyes were very
Jesse "nope" u are the important thing
"Stay, I don't want to be alone right now." She was a little scared right now.
Jesse leaned down and kissed her " i wont leave u"
"Thanks baby," she said and hugged the pillow under her head.
Jesse laid down with her
Lexa cuddled next to him. "I love you Jesse."
" i love you lexa and always will
She kissed him and smiled. Lexa didn't mind having his child she was just nervous over it all and was was going to happen.
Jesse closed his eyes and hugged her gently
Lexa put her hand around his arm and moved it to her abdomen. She put her head under his
Jesse started to gently rub her stomach
Jesse " seems like heaven"
shalimar started to toss and turn as she remembered that night at the restaurant, she heard disoriented voices and figures"
"You know I'm probably not going to be the most pleasant person to be around," Lexa said seriously.
Jesse yawned "why would you say that"
Brennan shook Shalimar. "Hey Shal honey wake up. You're dreaming."
shalimar heard the shot and woke up screaming
"Hormones Love, they arent always the most pretty thing in the world," she laughed a little.
Jesse took a breath " i can handle it i have lived with a feral and she was bad so how bad can u be"
Lexa laughed. "Who knows."
shalimar put her hand on her back where the dart was and rubbed it
I'm sure i can handle it lexa
"Hey you okay??" Brennan asked with concern
"Good," she smiled and closed her eyes
"yeah it was a real bad dream" shal said softly
"I bet you were tossing and turning like someone was holding onto you by the neck or something."
shal leaned on Brennan and buried her head in his chest
shalimar didn't respond she just put a handful of his shirt in her fist and stared at nothing imparticular
Brennan hugged her tightly.
she closed her eyes and could still see the images they seemed out of place and confusing
He rested his head on hers and held her. "You okay baby??"
shal " Brennan i keep seeing things in my head and i don't understand them i see faces but they are covered
"A bad dream I guess, you're okay you're safe." Brennan said soothingly.
shalimar sighed " they seem too real for a dream"
"Well hopefully it's just a realistic dream and nothing else."
shal closed her eyes "me to"
shal shook her head "no she deserves to play"
shal smiled " u will make a good dad Bren u know that
Brennan smiled and blushed a little. "Thanks kitten. I know you'll be a great mom no doubt about it." He kissed her lightly.
shal smiled " i love u Brennan so much"
"I love you too and I always will. You're my life, my other half and I wont let you go, ever."

"Of course," Brennan answered seriously.
sometimes I'm afraid u know" she said as she sat up alittle to look at him
"I cant' change my mind. When I look at you I see someone I can love cherish and respect. i Care and love about you too much. For a long time I've looked and I cant find anyone like you and I don't want to cause I want you. Not anyone else."
shalimar climbed fully into his lap and hugged Brennan not wanting to let go " i don't ever want to loose you Brennan"
"You wont Shal, you wont," he whispered and hugged her.
shal closed her eyes and licked her lips " want to go out tonight since I'm feeling better" i promise not to fight anyone
"Good now let's see where to go and what to do afterwords," he said mischievously
shal " well i know what we could do but since we are out in the open we cant"
"Damn," he laughed quietly. "Well we can go see a movie or go out to eat."
: shalimar remembered the last time they went to eat and shuddered just thinking about it
what if it happens again she thought to herself
"What??" He asked feeling her shudder
its nothing she reassured him but mostly for herself
shal " a movie sounds great
"Great," he smiled. "Now what to see."
anything but drama she muttered
"How about the Seed of Chucky I love horror movies," Brennan laughed.
shalimar looked at Brennan " OK because i know u will be the one i stay with after this" she laughed
Brennan laughed. "Good I'll feel safe and be comfy."
shal " yeah ill make sure u feel real safe
He smirked. "Let's go see what time the movie is."
shal got up off him reluntically
she stretched and looked for Alexis " come on time to go"
Alexis ran over " already?"
shal "yeah I'm sure your mommy is wondering about u
Brennan got up. "We can come back tomorrow if mommy says you can."
Alexis smiled "OK" she ran to the car
shal "Alexis wait" she ran after her
she then stopped and looked around she felt as if she were being watched
Brennan caught up. "Shal what is it?? What do you smell or see??"
shalimar looked at Brennan " nothing i just need to get out of here" she walked off to the car
Brennan didn't ask. He unlocked the car and got in, starting it.
shal helped Alexis put her belt on and climbed in before shutting her door
she didn't bother with her belt
Brennan pulled out of the parking lot. "Shal seat belt I don't need a ticket."
shalimar was too busy in a daze to hear Brennan
"Shal hey wake up out of dreamland and put on your seatbelt," Brennan said not taking his eyes off the road.
shalimar "what why?" she looked around and realized he was driving and grabbed her belt
"I wont be nosy and ask what's wrong but next time put belt on first then day dream hun," Brennan joked
she laid back and closed her eyes
Brennan pulled into the garage. "Okay every one out."
shalimar climbed out and Alexis ran to look for lexa
Brennan went inside and got on the computer to check movie times.
shalimar walked in behind Brennan and went to her room to change and sat on her bed wishing she could calm herself down
Lexa was asleep next to Jesse
Alexis couldn't find lexa and sighed sadly as she went to her room and played
Jesse rolled over on his side and grunted
Lexa sat up and walked out her door. She was feeling better. She saw Shalimar. "Hey where's Alex??"
shal looked up from her bed " oh shes in her room"
Lexa went into her room. "Hey what you up to??"
Alexis looked up from what she was doing as if she were caught
Lexa sat on her bed. "Did you enjoy the park??"
Alexis " sat up "yeah i want to go again Brennan said he can take me again if its OK with you
"Yeah of course," Lexa replied.
