The next few weeks were hectic at best, if that's how you wanted to describe it. Shaundi was at a loss for words for what to do, as was the boss. They were both facing a dilemma. Shaundi didn't know how to tell the boss about her current predicament, and well, the boss, he couldn't even figure out what the hell was wrong with Shaundi. He didn't know what it was, he just couldn't quite put his finger on it. But she was definitely acting different, almost anybody could tell. And the boss had yet to talk to the other saints about it. He wondered if any of them had went to talk to Shaundi. It was on his to do list though.

"Are you sure nothing's wrong?" The boss had asked for the umpteenth time that week. He would ask them every time they got done making love to one another. She was so, so different and the boss was oblivious to it all. He scooted closer to her underneath the covers, and wrapped his arm around her naked body. "Come on Shaundi, you gotta talk to me sooner or later.

"I'm just really tired." That was her excuse every single time he would ask her if she was okay. He knew she was lying, she would always make up some excuse or another. The boss wondered if she acted like this around the other saints, or was it merely just around him? He didn't want to confront her about anything yet, because he didn't want to make her angry at him. He was afraid she would get mad at him for getting into her business. But if they were really an official couple, wouldn't her business be his business too?

The boss didn't know what to do, he was at a loss. He really just hoped that Shaundi would come out on her own and say whatever it was that was bothering her, but it looked like that wasn't going to happen. "Shaundi..." He trailed off, unsure of what to say, just like always. He rolled away from her, facing the wall, why did he feel so shitty right now?

"I'm sorry..." Shaundi trailed off quietly. "I just haven't found the right way to tell you yet." She said, feeling like total crap at the moment. How much longer could she keep this secret all bottled up inside of her? How long could she keep it from her boyfriend and homies? It was stressing her out so much. In these past few weeks, she had really been thinking about things. She thought about adoption, but they were in space, and who the fuck else was up here to adopt a baby? She thought about abortion, but she honestly just couldn't see herself killing her own child; especially if it was her first and maybe her only child. And she also thought about keeping it, but did the boss want a baby? That was her major dilemma. What if he didn't even want it? And how in the world would they raise a baby in a gang, and in space?

The boss sat up, slightly angry, "Tell me what?" He asked, eyebrows knitted together in confusion. "Talk to me."

"I can't." She answered simply.

"You're pushing me further and further away, I hope you know that." Was all he said before he laid back down, facing away from his girlfriend.

"I'm sorry." Shaundi said, and she too laid down in the bed, facing away from the boss. He didn't want to push any farther, or hurt her feelings so the boss let her be. He couldn't help but to feel like the bad guy in all of this, but in a way, he was. It was kind of his fault, because he felt like he did something bad to Shaundi. He said nothing else, but only laid there in silence on his side of the bed. What the hell was going on? Just a month ago, he and Shaundi were as happy as can be. What changed? "Goodnight." She spoke softly, and she turned over and tried to go to sleep.

"Goodnight." The boss replied in a whisper. Hours passed, and the boss decided that he was too tense to go to sleep. He made sure Shaundi was sleeping though, and then he crawled out of bed slowly and carefully, trying not to wake up his girlfriend. A drink sounded like heaven right now, so he headed to the only place on the ship he could think of; the bar. He needed a cold beer to clear his head.

The boss hoped and prayed that some of the other saints were still awake because he needed somebody to vent to, and soon, before his relationship fell apart right before his eyes. He didn't want to lose Shaundi right after he had just won her. He really truly loved her, and he believed that she really truly loved him too. He just needed to figure out what was wrong with her first. If she'd quit being so damn stubborn and just come out with it, then maybe they wouldn't have this problem right now. Or if he'd just quit being so damn stubborn and ask her what was wrong then maybe they wouldn't have this problem either.

Things were so fucked right now, and the boss didn't know how to handle it. It was just too much to bear. When he finally arrived to the bar, a sigh of relief escaped his lips. "Finally." He said to himself as he grabbed a beer and popped the cap off. He took a small sip, and that was when he noticed that Kinzie was still awake. She was sitting on the floor, her legs crossed over one another, and she was typing away on her computer.

"Can't sleep?" She asked, realizing that the boss had finally noticed her.

He shook his head, "You?"

"Sleep is for the weak." She answered.

The boss then realized that this was the perfect time to ask Kinzie about Shaundi. They were kind of close, weren't they? Maybe Shaundi had talked to Kinzie about something. "Hey Kinzie, can I talk to you about something?" The boss asked.

"Sure." She nodded.

"It's about Shaundi..."
