Chapter 6

"No. No. No, no, no."

"Beka? Beka it's okay."

"What? No. How? What?"

Trance looked at Beka with concern as the blonde backed away from her slowly looking very dazed.
Beka had come to her with what she thought was the flu but it turned out to be something very different.

"Pregnant? I-I'm pregnant?"

Beka collapsed onto the floor.
How the hell could she be pregnant?
She and Rhade had only been together for a little less than a year.
Oh gee I don't know, said a little voice inside her head, maybe it was all that sex you had with Rhade? I think it must have happened when you slept with him. A hint of Niezschean with a dash of sex is gonna make a baby. You know, Nietzschean plus sex equals baby? It's not that hard of concept to grasp Valentine.
Beka closed her eyes tight hoping it would drown the voices out.

"Beka? Beka please say something..."

Opening her eyes slowly, she looked at the golden medical officer.

"Trance."

"Yes Beka?"

"Do a re-test."

Trance sighed. A re-test was not going to change the outcome. Beka was definitely pregnant.
Trance looked worridly at Beka asshe started to rock back and forth on the floor looking very deep in thought.
What was she supposed to do with a baby?
The last time she had taken care of anything (one of Trance's poor plants) it had died.
What kind of mother would she be?
She didn't even know how to be a mother.
Her own had failed her miserably.
And Rhade.
What was she going to tell him?
What was he going to say?
One part of her was terrified, but the other comforted her by reminding her that Rhade was Nietzschean after all, and that they lived to reproduce.
He would be happy.
...right?
