Mirage stared at Kai her eyes scared of what he would do. Kai on the other hand was speechless, he was feeling numb and he knew Mirage was waiting for an answer. "Kai say something!" Mirage cried taking her hand away from his cheek and wiping the tears away. Kai looked at her still numb, he took her hand away and put it back on his cheek for comfort, "Kai please?" she sobbed.
"I don't know what to say,' Kai replied weakly rubbing his face in her hand, "if you really want to know, a part of me is..." Kai looked down at her again and hugged her briefly, "happy…"
"But?" Mirage sniffed wiping her eyes again, she was expecting him to yell at her or walk off not him to be sitting there with an arm around her shoulders.
"What makes you think there's a but?"
"There's always a but," Mirage said blankly, "but?"
"But I'm scared," Kai admitted like a child admitting his fear of spiders, "you're experienced in this sort of stuff, I'm not," he added rubbing his face, "this was not how I wanted to spend the night, how about we talk over this with dinner?" he looked in the kitchen and then back at her, Mirage nodded and stood up sitting down at the glass table.
"But this time I'm the one pregnant," Mirage said darkly watching Kai bring out the dinner, "aren't you upset about this, is was expecting you to kick me out and never want to see me again?" she sat up straighter and smiled at the food, "looks yum," she said. Kai had spent the few hours before the date cooking the special roast dinner.
"Hey, do girls actually like guys that know how to cook?" Kai asked sitting down opposite her.
"Are you trying to change the topic?" Mirage smirked at him and he smirked back.
"Of course," Kai replied smirking, "listen I would never kick you in the streets for carrying my child, especially if I love you. We're going to go through this together," Kai picked up her hand but quickly withdrew it and watched her run into the bathroom, "but I won't be able to deal with sickness," he mumbled forking his mash potato.

Maria looked up at the large sign at the dance studio. She smiled happily and walked in and up the stairs. Her long red hair was tied up in a high ponytail and the red skirt that was connected to the black leotard. The sound of feet hitting floorboards reached Maria's ears and she stepped into the room where the blast of music hit her ears, "it's good to be home," she mumbled happily smiling at the instructor.
"Maria, you're back," the blonde haired woman hugged the twenty-two year old tightly, "since when?" she asked walking to the stereo and turning off the music, "ten minute break everyone," she said. Maria and the dance instructor were friends ever since Maria walked into the large mirrored room. "How are you Child?" the lady asked hugging her again.
"I'm fine Lou and I came back around two months ago," Maria replied looking around the studio, "wow, it's changed," she muttered looking at the bare wall that once held their favourite dancers. "How are you?" Maria asked turning away from the wall and looked back at the forty year old.
"I'm fine and so is Robby," the woman replied turning away snickering.
"I never asked about Robby," Maria replied stiffly walking to the CD player and looking through the CD's, "but now that you've mentioned it…" she trailed off looking at the woman.
Lou chuckled again and simply replied, "single," Maria blushed and bit her lips, "his last girlfriend wasn't able to keep up with him or handle him for that matter," Lou stood next to Maria and thought she'd finally introduce her, "everyone I would like you to meet one of the best dancers at Lady Lou's Dance Studio. She came back from Russia two months ago and is now going to be dancing with us," all the girls looked up from their talking to study the tall red head.
"Hey Maria," Johanna waved from her seat. Maria smiled and waved back.
"She doesn't look all that great," a green haired girl said bitterly looking Maria up and down. They turned their heads as someone else entered the studio.
"Hey Maria have you seen Dash anywhere?" Tala walked into the room his blue eyes wandering lazily over the group of girls, behind him a blonde man stood.
"We're in the same city with Tyrone, so Dash'll most likely be at the Photo Shop," the red haired woman replied looking at the blonde man, "Robby," she breathed looking him up and down. Robby was a twenty four year old hunk. He had spiky blonde hair and intelligent silver eyes and a tanned well-toned body. He wore baggy blue jeans and a yellow button up shirt, paint stains dotted on his clothes obviously he was a painter.
"Hey Maria long time no see," Robby replied sourly glaring at her, "you haven't changed one bit," Maria shook her head softly turning her back on him, "don't you turn-"
Lou coughed and looked between the two adults, "any fighting goes outside, god knows you two need to talk,' Lou looked at Tala and the red haired man groaned, "looking good Tala you practice?"
"No," Tala replied laughing, "like I would dance," he scoffed taking a seat next to Johanna.

Maria glared at the blonde man, "what are you doing back?" Robby growled pinning her to the alley wall. Maria felt her heart beat quickly and she lifted her knee getting him in the groin, "bitch," he growled.
"I gave you a chance before I left. You know how heart broken I was to find out weren't going to say goodbye," the blue eyed woman raised her hands in front of her getting ready to defend, "your mother was there and you weren't! You know how much that hurt, I still loved you!"
"You were only sixteen, you wouldn't have known the meaning of love, we were two young!" Robby replied standing up, "and you know how I feel about goodbyes, only say them-"
"If it really were goodbye and you were never going to see them again," Maria finished, "I know, but you knew better than everyone that I probably wasn't going to come back!" Maria clenched her eyes shut and breathed in deeply, 'I am not going to cry in front of him.' She felt arms wrap around her waist and being pulled into a strong chest, the scent of musk filled her nose and instantly she cried into his shoulder, "I missed you so much," she sobbed pathetically.
Robby looked down at the red head and leaned down to peck her cheek, "I missed you, everyone did," she felt Maria's lips attack his forcefully after that little kiss and felt happy that she was back in his arms.

"So what did your father think when you told him?" Kai asked sitting on the couch rubbing Mirage's stomach softly.
"He was…hurt," Mirage replied leaning on his shoulder, "they want me to move out after the baby is born. Or course my siblings protested so my parents still have to think of a plan," she placed her hand on top of his and mumbled, it tickles."
Kai gazed at the photo on the wall that was of him and Mirage when they were at camp with the twins, "I'm actually going to be a father," he mumbled thoughtfully, "how weird," Mirage laughed and picked up a black pillow whacking him in the face, "ow."
The black haired woman bit her lip and leaned in softly capturing his lips in a soft sweet kiss. Kai's arms instantly went to her waist pulling her into his lap, while Mirage's arms clasped around his neck. "You'll make a wonderful father," Mirage mumbled against his lips.
