"Alex. Hey, wake up." A deep, familiar voice said quietly. Alex moaned and rolled over in her bed. She heard a laugh, then felt a soft peck of a kiss on her neck. "Time to get up sleepy head."

She turned back over and blinked her eyes open. As her vision became clear, she saw Sean leaning over her smiling. She smiled back, and threw off her sheets.

"Good morning beautiful." He told her giving her another kiss, this time on the lips. Alex returned the gesture and sat up. Sean leaned over, giving Alex room to stand up.

"I had the weirdest dream." She said. "I, I was pregnant."

Sean raised his eyesbrows, then got a mischievous grin across his face. He pulled Alex close to him. "Maybe it wasn't a dream. Not after last night." He joked nuzzling her face with his nose. Alex laughed and gave him a friendly shove.

"Ha!" She blurted. "Real funny." Alex walked around Sean and walked towards the bathroom. Sean followed, but stopped when he reached the door. Alex stepped inside, gave Sean a smile, then closed it as he tried to walk in with her.

Alex stood in front of the mirror, holding a section of hair out to study it. She ran her fingers through it, making a digusted face. Her hair was dirty, so she decided a shower was needed. She started to undress, turned on the hot water, and hopped in. Alex applied shampoo and conditioner to her hair, and finished her shower. Turning off the water, she reached her arm out past the curtain and grabbed a towel off the hook. Wrapping it around herself, she pushed the curtain away and stepped out onto the bath mat. Outside the bathroom, the house was quiet. Alex narrowed her eyes, knowing how she could usually hear Sean getting food in the kitchen. Holding her towel up, she opened the door, and stepped into out. Silence filled the room, but suddenly Alex was grabbed from behind as two arms wrapped around her waist. A small grunt left her, but turned to laughter when Sean kissed her cheek.

"Mmmmm, you smell good." He exclaimed. Alex pushed his arms away and turned to face him.

"Thank the shampoo for that." She answered, walking towards the dresser.

"So, what's the agenda for today?" Sean asked.

"We're going to meet everyone and figure out how to finish this mission." Alex responded as she took out her outfit for the day. Sean walked to the bed and fell back on it.

"I was hoping we could have a day to ourselves." He whined. Alex threw a shirt over on Sean, startling him.

"Sean, we have to finish this fight. You know that." He yanked it off and sighed.

"That's just the thing Alex. I've been telling you for forever to forget it. We can stay here and be normal people."

This time Alex sighed.

"And I've told you a million times I'm not normal! I never have been. Taking down Amanda is what I have to do. And I won't stop fighting until we finish her." She turned to him, and saw his sad expression. "I promise, we'll have a day just for us."

"When?" He asked, unsureness in his voice. Alex dropped her towel and started to get dressed.

"Soon." She said.

Alex's eyes opened, and the room was still dark. She was in her bed, still at the safehouse. A small amount of light started to shine through the windows, and Alex turned to the alarm clock beside her. It was almost 7 a.m. Looking around the room, Alex realized everyone was still sleeping, and now would be the perfect time to get up. These dreams always seem so real. She thought to herself as she proceeded to get out of bed. Alex felt a lump form in her throat, but swallowed and held back any tears that wanted to come out. Swinging her legs over to the ground, Alex placed her bare feet onto the cold wooden floor. Quietly standing up so she wouldn't wake up anybody, she walked carefully to the trunk at the end of the bed. She opened it, and took out her clothes from the day before. Because the bathroom was past the other beds, she made sure the coast was clear then quickly changed from the pajamas she borrowed from Nikita and slipped on her own clothes.

Alex headed towards the kitchen, and searched for a pen and piece of paper so she could write a note. When she found a pen, she began to write,

Thank you for letting me stay the night, but I really should be getting back to my place. I promise I'll call soon, and check up on everything. The minute anything comes up with Amanda, let me know.

Alex.

She read over the note a couple times, then placed it on the counter so someone was for sure to see it. Then, Alex headed out of the house.

A good 20 minutes passed, and Alex made it back to her and Sean's place. A sudden wave of guilt washed over her for spending the night away, but she told herself that Sean would have been alright with it. He probably would have encouraged her to stay longer. She sighed and stepped out of the car. Alex hurried up to the house and unlocked the door. It creaked open, and she reached in and flipped a light switch. Taking a breath, she kicked off her shoes and dropped her keys on the cabinet next to the door. The house smelled way too much like Sean, causing Alex to momentarily forget he was gone. Soon after, she remembered, and kicked herself for forgetting again. How much longer will this last? She thought. The million dollar question.

Not long after Alex settled in the living room, she started to experience a major headache. She cringed, rubbing her temples. She stood up, and walked towards the kitchen. The pain started to get worse, so she opened one of the cabinets and took out the bottle of Advil. I'll just have two. That's it. She told herself, knowing what previous incidents have happened. She gulped down the pills, drank some water, and waited for them to work.

After an hour, the headache got worse. Alex was desperate to make the pain stop, and her ex-drug addict self told her to take some more. It won, and Alex took 2 more pills. They finally started to kick in, a little too well. Colourful spots appeared everywhere she looked, and things started to get dark. Before she could sit down, Alex crashed to the ground in complete darkness.

I've changed how this story will lay out. I'll continue writing chapters about her pregnancy, and eventually I'll get to when the child is older and finds out about Division. So the next bunch of chapters will be the next 9 months. I will be busy tomorrow and sunday, but I'll try to write even a short chapter tomorrow. Plus, I start school Tuesday so I apologize in advance if chapters aren't coming quickly!
