2 WEEKS LATER

"You're pregnant, Vala."

----------------------------------------

PRESENT TIME

"Cam, we forgot something." mumbled Vala into his chest as they lay recovering.

He groaned, weakly covering his eyes with his arm. "Please tell me we locked the door."

Vala stilled and her satiated mind tried to fire up those fried synapses.

Now that she thought about it, she wasn't that sure about them having locked the front door. They HAD been pretty occupied as they crashed into Cam's house and finally gave into their lust on the hard wooden floor of his foyer. She remembered shutting the door with her foot, but then he was already inside her and she forgot that even the world existed. When they recovered enough to stand, they staggered into his bedroom where round 2 began. They were now recovering after that particular round. So, no, they hadn't locked the door. But, she decided it was best not to mention it to him at the time.

She would get up later (if she was able to walk) and lock it herself.

Oops, getting off-track here...

"That's not what I'm talking about. We didn't use anything. You know, what are those things called? Condominium? Condo?"

Well that definitely caught his attention. He froze under her. "Condoms?"

She grinned. "Yeah, that." stretching herself and enjoying the soreness of some muscles that hadn't been used in quite a while.

He lifted his head and stormy blue met her gray. "Shit." Dread started expressing itself on his face.

Suddenly an idea came to him and he grabbed at it like a drowing man clutches at a buoy. "What about the pill? Don't you use it?"

He was sure that Vala was having quite an exciting sex life, compared to his own draught of several past years. The woman was a knock-out, after all, and she definitely didn't behave like a shy librarian. She must've had a guy on every planet. Or several.

Or she would've had, had she not been more focused on just surviving in a hostile universe in a hostile business. Sex definitely takes a backseat to survival, plus you are vulnerable while having sex, and vulnerability was something that Vala could not afford nor did she want it. Which meant lack of sex, which meant lack of any birth control. But Cam didn't know that.

"What pill?" Vala scruntched up her face in thought. "Oh!" she eventually exclaimed, finally having caught on to what he meant. "I'm an alien, those pills don't work on me. Dr Lam tried it. They didn't do what they were supposed to."

Cam was clutching at straws. "Don't women on SG teams get their contraceptive shots, it being a rule?"

"No." Vala shook her head "I asked and Dr Lam told me that the military has no right forcing women into taking contraceptives, just as they are obligated to immediately take pregnant women off any combat units when they find out they're pregnant." At that she stopped. "Ooops..."

But with typical Vala skill she skipped over the problem and continued. "Anyway, Dr Lam said that the women could sue the military big time if they were forced to take contraceptives. What if they want to have kids? Those shots are voluntary only. Besides, just as the pill, they don't work on me."

"Oh god." groaned Cam, dropping his head back on his pillow. "Please don't tell me!"

"I'm ovulating today." added Vala oh so helpfully.

"Wait a minute! If you're an alien and no kind of human birth control works on you, that doesn't mean that you are even able to get pregnant by a human!"

"Yeah, probably." she whispered, humoring him.

Vala just smiled at him sadly knowing the truth. While hormone therapies may not work since off-world-humans had to adopt to other radiations, air, water, food,... on other planets, this changing their bodies' chemistry; something as basic as conception did not acknowledge the fact that one parent was from one planet and the other from another, as long as they are both human. Case in point: Shifu, Sha're and Apophis' child. The fertilization would take place nonetheless, with a perfectly human embryo, it growing and being born to become a human, not some grotesque mutant; the baby would just grow into a person who would just have a slightly different chemistry and imune system, because the parents had different ones. Or it could take after one parent only, fully inheriting the characteristics of that one parent and ignoring the other. It's called "Evolution of the species" and only the strongest (beings and genes) survive. Most of the time.

Life and nature have a way of getting around obstacles and eventually overcoming them. This is just like a daisy growing out of a crack in the pavement.

Either way, the child about to be born would be human. And it WOULD be born.

"Don't worry, Vala, it's not going to happen." said Cam, while caressing her back comfortingly, completely certain. Vala just smiled at him, desperately trying to believe him.

So why was she already feeling things mixing and combining inside her body?

2 WEEKS LATER

"You're pregnant, Vala." said Dr Lam to a resigned Vala and a shell-shocked Cam.

"I knew it!" turned Vala smugly to Cam, who's jaw was gaping.

"Wha... What!?"

"You're going to be a Daddy, Cam!" Vala threw her arms around his neck and kissed him.

'Thud.'

The two women were looking at the ground where one damn tough guy, leader of the world's premier off-world team, combat veteran, Teal'c's greatest competition in staff weapon fighting, had just fainted.

REVIEWS would be nice. I noticed that M rated fics get a lot less hits and reviews.
