Kara's physiotherapist arrived the next morning, not only was she totally hyper and over forty, she was a naturopath, stating clearly within the first hour of meeting Kara that she was forbidden to smoke or drink at anytime during her therapy. The woman's hair was liberally streaked with grey; but she skipped around the room with an ease that was enviable to those who could walk. It hurt, that was for sure. Her feet and ankles would have to be completely retrained to support her weight. She had to dig her nails into her own palms to prevent herself from crying as her muscles were manipulated. She didn't like to admit it; but she was getting stronger, better at lifting herself in and out of bed, becoming more capable at dealing with the situation, as her stupid therapist put it. The woman was insane. She skipped into Kara's room everyday and tortured her, while chatting happily about her own life, which Kara assumed was almost entirely fiction.

With nothing else to do Kara worked out most of the time, attempting to strengthen her muscles. The gym was accessible to physio patients and she made full use of it. At first she hung out in the bar, attempted to conjure booze from people, which failed, booze was hard to come by, and the only thing Kara was to trade was…not going to happen. Currently it wasn't worth it. She reassured herself as time passed. Lee didn't return, Racetrack transported her to and from sickbay for blood tests and as weeks turned into months she realized something was wrong, really wrong. It was too hot, it had been comfortable when she arrived, but the heat was practically unbearable. Part of having good reflexes was knowing one's own body. It was impossible she told herself, and yet had to remind herself of that each time a wave of nausea passed over her. Luckily, she never actually vomited. The blood tests weren't testing for hormones, and she was afraid to ask to test for them. She preferred it this way, not knowing for sure. It had been over two months; they had jumped away from the cylons at least twelve times. Lee hadn't even come once. She didn't know why, she knew he was still alive, and that was all. It likely had something to do with Dualla, had he been caught in a two-month fight? Or was he racked with guilt? The dreams never had lee in them now. But they were always there, the smiling goddess, and then looking into her own eyes. It confused her, but Artemis goddess of the hunt, was also the goddess of maidens and childbirth, the dreams must have something to do with this.

Kara used that frakking contraption, as she called it to lift herself into bed. She was pretty sure she'd uttered less that six syllables in the last week. Her therapist was threatening psychiatric help, but she knew the truth, if they hadn't already done it wasn't likely to happen. Her ankles, as usual were sore. It still took along time to undress herself, but she managed. She lay on the bed almost completely naked and slowly moved one of her hands to her stomach, fingering her stomach, wondering for a moment before grabbing the oversized t-shirt that her therapist has gotten for her and pulled it over her head. She still wasn't used not to sleeping in tanks.

She heard a knock at the door, "Damn therapists." She muttered, before yelling "Coming."

It took her a few moments to get out of the bed before wheeling herself to the door. When she pushed a button to open it Lee's eyes met hers, before she had the chance to say anything Lee had closed the door, dimmed the lights and picked her up out of the chair, heading for the bed. She heard whispers, "Missed you." And then a few kiss later, "Love you." Damn, Kara thought, as Lee kissed her passionately, she'd attempt to put together sentences in her head, such as why wasn't Lee acting like himself? Why was he not talking about feelings and love, before she could complete any thoughts she was naked, well she hadn't been wearing much to begin with, and Lee's hand were roaming, and inadvertently so were hers.

"Lee?" She asked him questioningly and he kissed her neck.

"Kara…" he moaned in response, kissing her with more fervor as his hands wandered into areas that made it increasingly difficult to talk or think. So she gasped instead.

She attempted to think of a response but was distracted as his hands wandered further. So she let it happen. She hadn't really wanted to talk to Lee so much at yell at him. Her muscles were stronger, strong enough that she surprised him when she rolled him over and leaned over him, letting her own knees support her weight. Moving her hands and vigorously removing his clothes. She had missed him, and if this is the way Lee wanted her to express it, well, it was certainly easier. She watched him with her eyes open as they made love. Moaning and gasping, but it was too fast, she realized after rolling off Lee to lie beside him.

"Kara, I'm really sorry."

"About staying away or…?" She let her voice trail off.

"Both, my dad banned me from raptor use, kept me on missions further away."

"Why?"

"He doesn't understand, he can't accept that I love you because of Zak."

"Oh."

"How have you been Kara? What's happened?"

"Not much, getting stronger, but still can't walk." Kara said very quickly rolling over onto her side facing Lee, "I'm pregnant." She said very quietly.

"No you're not Kara." He responded kissing her, "You couldn't be."

"Yes I am." She responded voice getting stronger.

"I'm pretty sure Doc Cottle would have said something stupid…"

"He doesn't know."

"How?"

"Blood tests vary, they aren't checking for the hormones associated with pregnancy."

"Then how do you know…" he caught himself, "Okay, stupid question…but it's been over two months that means…"

"Yeah, two months."

"Okay, we're going to Galactica."

"Why?"

"The right kind of blood test, besides this is scary Kara, what about physio? What about the cylon crap floating around in your blood stream." Lee sounded frantic as he pulled his clothes back on.

"Its dormant Lee, but I don't know." Kara leaned over and began to dress herself, when Lee came to close, she let him know, "I can dress myself Lee."

Kara didn't think she had ever traveled so fast in that chair as she did on the way to the raptor. This was about to get complicated.
