Hi sorry haven't updated in forever! School and work, and drama! Don't even get me started with drama the plays next week which means I'm screwed! Anyway I'm sure you don't want to read this, so the chapter dedications are at the bottom and enjoy... OH WAIT! Ah nevermind enjoy...
Michael just sat there as Nikita started. "How am I going to do this?" Nikita wondered, "He's never to forgive me."
"Nikita what's wrong," he asked, "Is what you're going to tell me really important? We still need to find Alex, can it wait?"
Nikita shook her head as she answered, "No it can't wait, I've already waited too long to tell you." She took one more deep breath and started, "There's something I haven't told you about the time…the time that I was pregnant."
"What?" Michael asked, "Can it help Alex in some way?"
"No, I lied."
Michael looked astonished, "what do you mean you lied? Are we just wasting time while Alex is god knows where?"
Nikita looked right at Michael as she continued, "I lied. When Amanda asked about the conception date, I lied."
"How could you have lied? There was no one else that you slept with around that time," Michael told her, "Are you saying you miraculously conceived Mason all by yourself?"
"No what I'm saying is that you have son," Nikita answered, "You're Mason's father."
"What?" Michael asked sitting down, "How? Russia?"
"Yes," Nikita answered.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Michael wondered, "no I know why you didn't, we would have all been killed. Are…are you sure?"
Nikita smiled, "I'm pretty sure, Russia and the Rodgers app were pretty close together but," Nikita went to the bedside table and took a photo out of the drawer. She handed the photo to a confused Michael as she sat down, "I saw so many similarities in his face, I'm pretty sure he has your nose. Also I was supposed to get my period a few days after the Rodgers app; if Rodgers was Mason's father I wouldn't have been able to pick up on the signs so quickly."
Michael looked down at the photo Nikita had given him. It was of Mason, an older Mason maybe around the age of two. As he looked at Mason's face he saw everything: Nikita's eyes, his nose and chin structure, and Nikita's smile. "I see it, he's ours."
"Yeah he is," Nikita said smiling, the first time Michael had seen her smile in the longest time. "You have to realize I couldn't tell you because if Percy or Amanda found out…"
Michael cut her off by saying, "I understand but why didn't you tell me once I was on your side and we were both out Division?"
Nikita stayed quiet while she tried to think of a response, why did she keep it so long from him? Did she want to make sure Division was taken care of first? Did she just want to forget about what she had done, leaving her son in order to escape Division? "I truly don't know. I think I didn't want you to do something rash. You have no idea how many times I just wanted to break into Division and grab him then get out."
"I just can't believe that I've had a son all this time and never knew," Michael added, "Do you know how hard it was for me seeing you pregnant? All the memories it brought back? And in the end it was my son you were carrying!"
Nikita tried her best not to cry as she replied, "I'm sorry! I couldn't tell you! Percy wanted me canceled once I found out I was pregnant; if it got out that you were the father all three of us would have been canceled. I didn't want to see you get hurt because of me."
"Nikita," Michael said coming closer to her, "I understand. It always takes a minute for the shock to ware off." He pulled her into a hug and Nikita started to cry a little, "what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I'm happy," Nikita said, "You have no idea how hard it was keeping that from you."
"Beats me," Michael added, "You only didn't tell me for 5 years." Nikita and Michael both smiled.
They had just enough time for a quick kiss before there was knock on their door. "Hey I don't know what's going on in there, but I have a lead on Alex's location," Birkhoff said, "and I don't know about you guys but if I was Alex, I would like it if I was saved already."
"Ok we'll be out in a minute," Michael said, he waited until he heard Birkhoff tromp down the stairs before adding, "let's go save Alex so we can get our son back."
Nikita smiled and nodded as Michael leaned down and kissed her on the lips. Just as Nikita was about to open the door, Michael kneeled down and kissed her belly. "What are you doing?"
"Well I have a lot of time to make up for."
It was after nightfall when one of the nameless men came in and unhooked Alex, "Good thing for you that the boss likes a pretty lady," he said as he lead her to the chair, she had sat in earlier, and handcuffed her to the arm. The guy left and returned a few minutes with something that looked similar to a bowl full of mush. "Eat up."
Alex didn't say anything and waited to hear the door click shut. Once she was alone she tried to eat, but the way she was handcuffed really didn't help her. She finally just threw her head into the bowl to eat with her mouth. Once she had finished the food, which had turned out to be rice and vegetables, she smashed the ceramic bowl on the ground by her feet. The bowl shattered instantly, sending shards everywhere. "Well if this doesn't work at least those disgusting men can't come near me," she said quietly to herself. Alex managed to slide a chard of the broken bowl with her foot to the side of the chair where she could somewhat reach it.
When Alex had finally gotten the chard in her possession she heard chaos outside; she quickly did her best to clear the mess before anyone came in. Pretty soon the door opened and Rodgers came in, "I see you had an accident, this is why you never give the guests the good china," he stated as he grabbed a chair and sat down in front of Alex. "Do you want to tell me who those guys were who just tried to save your ass?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Alex answered, "I work alone."
Rodgers laughed, "Really? Bring him in!"
The nameless men entered dragging someone who looked familiar but was impossible to make out in the dimed light. As Alex examined the body some more she noticed short black hair and a big nose. The body would twitch a little every so often, but Alex still had no idea who it was until the boys set him down right next to Tristan. "Sean?" Alex asked.
"Oh so you do know who this is," Tristan added, "That's good now I can get more out of you."
"Go ahead hurt him see if I care," Alex mentioned, "He's wanted me dead for some time now."
"Want you dead? Now why would he want such a beautiful women like yourself dead?" Tristan added.
"This is going to be fun," Alex smirked, "Because he doesn't like who I work for."
Tristan leaned in towards Alex and asked, "Who do you work for? Who wants me dead?"
"Well I bet a lot of people want you dead," Alex replied. Tristan gave a nod and before Alex knew it; her face was throbbing from where another slap had hit her. "I'm sorry, but I bet it's true. I know for a fact that Gogol certainly wants you dead."
"Gogol?" Tristan asked, "What's Gogol?"
"A very bad Russian company," a voice called out from Tristan.
Alex noticed that one of the nameless men was reaching for his gun, but Tristan waved him off. Alex also noticed Tristan's posture change when he rose to see who the mystery person was. "What's the matter Tristan Rodgers don't you remember me?" Nikita asked stepping into the light, dressed head to toe in black with her hair pulled back and a gun pointed right Tristan's heart.
