Chapter 2
Alicia walked out of the doctor's surgery after realising her periods she had missed a few periods. She at first thought that it was the stress of rebuilding ZDT from scratch, as she had alot of work to do, to get everything running properly and to the way she wanted it. She also had to hire new staff to make up for some of the old employes that she had to fire. But it wasn't stress related why she had missed her periods, the doctor had just confirmed that she was pregnant.
Alicia knew she had gained a bit of weight but she never had guessed that she was pregnant. She didn't know whether to be happy or pissed, she always wanted to have children, but she always thought she would settle down to have them, and then still wait a few years.
She wondered how she could have gotten pregnant, since she was on the pill and was sure she couldn't get pregnant, then again, Jesse was a mutant maybe things were different for them. Maybe they had super sperm.
Alicia didn't know whether or not if she should call Jesse to tell him the news, after all she was carrying his child inside her.
She decided at the moment not to, because she didn't want to make things complicated even though things were at the moment, and were about to get a lot worse. She also knew about that woman at the bar and she saw the look on his face when he saw her there. He loved her. And she made him, make her a promise.
"Next time a woman comes along that fits into your life, promise me something. Don't let her go." ((From episode Wasteland))
And she knew Jesse, would never stop trying, and would never break that promise, and he would get his girl. And have the life he wanted with her.
She also didn't want to worry him after all she knew he would have a lot to deal with, being a mutant and all. That and this was a problem she could deal with. Alicia knew she was strong enough to do this on her own. And she didn't need Jesse, or any other guy, to help her.
She held the picture in her hand and starred at it. She then placed a hand on her stomach. It was just her and the baby now. She could deal with this; she had to for everyone's sake.
Maybe one day, she'll let someone help her, maybe one day she'll tell him, so he can help, after all the baby is part mutant and will probably need help with any powers he or she will develop.
But at the current moment in time.
Jesse could never find out, not now, not until she was ready to tell him.
((2 days later))
Alicia went to her desk and picked up her phone and started dialling Jesse's number. She knew he would want to know about this. And would want to be involved in the child's life. But she didn't know if she wanted him to be involved with the baby or not. After all, he did hurt her all those years ago.
Alicia realised that she has to eventually tell Jesse about the baby, after all every parent has a right to know they have a child, and has the right to be apart of that child's life.
She put down the phone before she finished dialling the last number and burst out in tears she had no idea what she was going to do. But she knew one thing and that was that she was keeping the baby no matter what.

Jesse earlier that day laid on his bed thinking about Alicia and the fact they had made love She's still as incredible as she always was, and still as beautiful he thought to himself. Jesse knew that if things were different and he hadn't had run away all those years ago, Alicia and him would still be together and would probably have a few kids and the whole white picket fence dream, and everything would be perfect. Although, maybe he would still be hiding who, or what he was from her. He wondered to himself if he was ever going to reveal to her the fact that he was a mutant, and that he has this powers. Jesse smiles sadly to himself and realises that he probably wouldnt ever have told her. But now things are different.
Jesse also knew that if he didn't love Lexa like he did, then maybe he would try to work things out between Alicia and himself. And give them another shot, since she finally knew his secret. And accepted him. But he knew that it couldn't happen, not now. He loved Lexa and he knew a part of her loved him too. All he had to do now, was get Lexa to admit she did.
