The next morning, the Sirius came around and picked Sam and Eduardo up, ending their brief honeymoon. Sam was disappointed that it was over, but was happy that they could have the time together. Russell and Nathan had of course teased them about their honeymoon, but with a cock of Eduard's pistol, they quickly returned to their duties about the ship. It was yet again another beautiful day, and Sam leaned up against the side of the ship, watching the island slowly disappear into the distance. Eduardo went back to work steering the ship, and winked down at her when she looked up at him, standing behind the wheel.

Morgan walked over and stood next to Sam, leaning against the side of the ship beside her. "Enjoy yourselves?" He asked, his tone smug and he smirked at her.

Sam smiled, continuing to stare out at the sea. "Yes. We had a great time."

"Good. We're glad."

She turned to him. "Thank you again for letting us do that. It means a lot."

"You're welcome. I'd never be one to prevent a couple from going on their honeymoon. See, I'm an old romantic at heart I suppose."

Sam glanced at him, eyebrow raised. "Oh you are, huh?"

Morgan chuckled. "Well of course. But that's besides the point. I needed to talk to you briefly about something."

"Sure, what's up?"

"When we were circling the island, we ran into the Rika and Captain Alan…"

Sam immediately rolled her eyes. "Pity I missed it."

Morgan smiled briefly at her comment. "Well listen, we just need to be extra careful around here right now, alright?"

"What do you mean?"

Morgan sighed, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand. "Well, I'm sure you're aware for his…feelings for you."

Oh yes, she was completely aware. Alan had made it a known fact that he wanted Sam as his own on multiple occasions. Even though he repulsed her, he had it stuck in his mind that it was him that she truly wanted, and was just being coy with him. She remembered when he'd taken her captive; right around the time her and Eduardo first got together, and had took her to the Rika. He'd also taken Thomas, as he wanted some treasure map of some sort. But it was Sam he wanted to keep. Luckily Eduardo and Nathan had come for her, and they were able to get away. It was also around that time that Eduardo had confessed his feelings for her. Despite the fact she still hated him, Sam had kind of thanked him for that little push Eduardo needed to confess to her.

Sam shuddered as she remembered her last, most recent, encounter with Alan. Alan, in his crazy mind, was still convinced that Sam was being held captive on the ship, and that Eduardo was torturing her, or some crazy mess like that. He'd full on attacked the Sirius and tried to take her with him, a feeble attempt that left him empty handed and a bullet hole through his captain's hat. Now that Sam thought about it, that incident hadn't been too terribly long before the thing with Daniel.

Sam nodded at Morgan. "I'm unfortunately aware."

"Well, I'm just warning you, but he's back. And more persistent this time. He…dropped by, while you two were gone."

Sam sighed. "You think he's going to try something?"

"Probably, knowing that stupid bastard. I'm just telling you this now to keep your eyes peeled, and to be careful. You're under the full protection of the Sirius here, and you're a valued member of our crew, so I can promise you that I won't let any harm come to you while you're with us." Morgan smiled at her.

Sam smiled back and placed her hand on his shoulder as the two looked back out at the open ocean. "Thank you Captain, I greatly appreciate that." The two stood in silence for a few moments, staring out at the clear, never-ending sea meeting with the continuous sky. Admiring at how the two blues mingled into one.

Sam felt a sudden wave of nausea hit her, and quickly released her hand from Morgan's shoulder. She moved further away from him and bent her head over the side of the ship, becoming ill. Morgan quickly went to her side, almost unsure of what exactly to do, but patted her back gently as she wiped her mouth once she'd finished. She cheeks flushed as she glanced back at Morgan, who looked down at her, concerned.

"I know Alan's kind of loathsome man, but he's nothing to get sick about." Morgan feebly tried to joke, continuing to pat her back.

"I'm… I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me…" She whispered, embarrassed.

Morgan held her by her shoulders, inspecting her face. "It's quite all right, it happens sometimes. You should probably go visit Christopher, just in case though." Morgan gave her a gentle push towards Christopher's office, and he turned and walked up towards the wheel of the ship to talk to Eduardo. Eduardo, she noticed, hadn't seemed to have seen her episode, to which she was grateful.

Sam nodded solemnly, shuffling off towards Christopher's office. She had no idea what had suddenly come over her. She'd felt completely fine one moment, and then completely sick the next. Even now, she already felt better. She placed a hand on her belly, feeling it's slightly swollen nature. In the past few weeks, she'd noticed how her belly had started to look a little swollen, but Sam had just written it off as her overindulging herself with Nathan's cooking. It wasn't very large, and even Eduardo hadn't noticed it when they were intimate with one another, but she'd noticed it. As Sam walked up towards Christopher's office, she made a note to ask him about it. Maybe she'd gained some weight from all of the food, and her body was just now reacting to it?

She knocked on the door and waited briefly. She heard Christopher shuffle to the door, and opened it, grinning down at her. Seeing her face, he ceased smiling and ushered her inside, closing the door firmly behind them. He pulled out a chair for her to sit down on and asked her what was wrong. She explained her sudden illness, and Christopher went about checking her. He took her temperature, her pulse, her breathing rate, checked her heart beat, the works. Sam quickly proposed her theory of her eating too much recently to him, to which Christopher shot down almost instantly. He stated that if that were the case, she'd have been sick around the time she'd eaten a lot. Her body wouldn't wait so long for it to react so suddenly.

Sam then confessed that she'd been feeling swollen around her belly region for the past few weeks. She explained that she hadn't thought anything of it until she'd gotten sick just now. Christopher placed his stethoscope on her belly, and moved it around gently for a few moments while Sam looked out the window. Through the tiny window in his office, Sam could see another ship coming up close to the Sirius.

She quickly tapped Christopher on the shoulder. "Chris, there's another ship pulling up next to the Sirius."

Christopher lowered his stethoscope and looked through the window. He wrapped the stethoscope around his neck and stood, walking over to his medicine cabinet. He riffled through the contents inside for a moment before seemingly finding what he was looking for. As he grabbed a small box from inside, the ship rocked violently and Sam could hear a loud explosion coming from the side of the ship. She and Christopher exchanged looks, and Sam went to stand up from the chair, but Christopher stopped her. He came back to her and tossed her the small box as he headed towards the door. Her eyes widened as she read the label, and looked back up at him.

"Go in the bathroom and take that test real quick for me. I'm going to go find out what's going on outside, and then I'll be back, so stay here." Christopher instructed as he swiftly exited the room, leaving Sam to stare down at the box with the pregnancy test inside.
