"Alex! Alex!" Nikita was really anxious. She ran to the unconscious body of her partner and started shaking her shoulder. "Alex! Wake up!"

"Ugh... Nikita, I'm fine, at least I think I am." Alex slowly put herself in an upright position. "But you should drive," she added and smiled when her mentor visibly relaxed. "My head is killing me by the way. Did she really knock me out with her gun?" she mumbled sarcastically.

"Alex, this is not funny! I don't understand what happened. What the hell was all that about?" Nikita asked. Thinking back to the previous events, she felt more confused than ever.

" Oh. I guess I owe you explanations for a lot of things. I can't let you out of this anyway. She just declared war against me and you are one of her main targets, I'm afraid," Alex said sadly. Great. I put all of my friends in danger. I must find a way to work it out without anyone being hurt, or worse. I have to talk to Sean, he must know I'm carrying his child.

"Let's go back, Nikita," Alex said and walked back to their car.

During their way home, Alex was really anxious. She remained silent throughout the ride, staring outthe window.

"Alex? Are you ok?" Nikita asked, worried about her friend. Alex didn't answer. She was just sitting there, motionless and silent.

"Alex! Don't make me ask you again! Are you ok?" Nikita asked angrily. She wanted to make sure that Alex was going to answer her question this time.

" Yes. I'm fine. No need to worry," Alex replied, but she didn't manage to persuade Nikita.

" Oh come on Alex. Don't lie to me."

"I am fine Nikita. I don't have anything to confess," Alex said, turning her face back to the road.

Back at Division.

"Let's go to Medical first. Then we are going to talk. You have a lot of questions to answer, Alex. You have to tell me everything." Nikita ordered and started walking to Medical. Alex suddenly stopped.

" Fine. We are going to talk, I promise but give me one hour, I am asking for one hour only. I will be in my room. Please come and pick up in one hour, okay?" She asked quickly and then ran off, away from Nikita and towards her room. She opened the door and entered the room. She saw Sean, her boyfriend, pacing up and down anxiously and she had never felt so relaxed and happy as that moment, when she realized she was back with him.

"SEAN!" she shouted. He barely had the time to turn around before she ran at him and hugged him passionately. "I missed you."

"I missed you too, Alex," Sean said and hugged Alex back, even tighter than she did. "I love you so much," he added and kissed her softly. "Are you ok? How did the meeting with Amanda go? What happened to your head? Is that blood? You should go to Medical!" Sean started to be really worried about his girl.

"Relax Sean! I am fine, but I have to talk to you. I have good news, bad news and I-don't-know-whether-it's-good-or-bad-news. You should sit down." Alex said, pushing Sean back to their bed.

"Okay. What 's wrong?" Sean said, quite surprised by Alex's strange behaviour.

" Please remain calm. We have only 50 minutes so I need to get to the point. The bad news is Amanda is my aunt, she declared war against me and you are one of her targets."

"She is what!? She did what? I am what?" Sean asked in shock.

"You heard me. Don't make me repeat it! Now. The good news. We have 9 months before she starts coming after me." Alex said.

"What? Why 9 months?" Sean asked. He was really confused about what the hell was going on.

"And that brings us to the I-don't-know-whether-it's-good-or-bad-news." Alex took a deep breath. "I am pregnant, Sean. I'm carrying your child."

"You are pregnant?" Sean whispered in shock. "Pregnant?" he repeated. "I'm going to be a daddy?" He looked up at Alex and she nodded the affirmative.

Suddenly, Sean jumped up from the bed up and started yelling. "YOU ARE PREGNANT! WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A BABY! I AM GOING TO BE A DADDY!" He grabbed Alex and kissed her briefly. Then he sat on their bed. Alex climbed on his lap and he started kissing his girlfriend passionately. "How do you feel, Alex? Do you want this kid or not?" he said, trying to keep his happiness under control.

"I – I'm scared, Sean. I have never thought of being a mom and here I am, carrying our child. I'm afraid that I'm not going to be a good mother. Now though, after seeing you so glad about it, I know I want to try, I want to fight for it. I want to have a baby with you, Sean. If... if you want it too, of course."

"Only if it is a girl!" Sean replied in a sarcastic way. He lied down on the bed and crawled over it to lie near his girlfriend. He put his hand on her stomach and said, "Hi little girl, your daddy is here."

"Boy," Alex argued.

"Girl."

"Boy."

"Girl."

"Boy!"

"Girl!"

They sat right there, arguing about the what sex their child should be, when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in," Sean answered. The door opened and Nikita entered the room.

"Listen, I'm sorry if I interrupted something but I need to talk to Alex," Nikita said. She felt a little awkward watching the lovey-dovey couple lying on the bed.

"Ok. On my way," Alex said. She turned to kiss Sean one more time and whispered "Boy." Then she stepped out the bed and left the room. She turned to look at Nikita. "Let's go," she said, sounding a little hopeless.

"Where would you like to have that conversation?" Nikita asked, letting Alex choose the place so she could feel comfortable.

"Sublevel 12," Alex replied coldly.

"What!? That is the torture area!" Nikita said, shocked. Why would Alex choose such a place!?

"I know that, Nikita. This conversation is going to be a torture for me so let's do it right shall we? Just to get in the mood," Alex said, smiling softly
