i stopped eating and looked up. "What do you mean? What could be wrong?"

His face was stone cold. "There's something wrong with you. You need to see a doctor. You've been sick the past couple of hours, yes?"

"Yeah but its norm-"

"No, don't tell me its normal. Not in the six years that I've known you, have you once been sick." He paused. "See a doctor. Now."

I nodded and moved towards the edge of the bed. Eric was frozen close to me spaced out, staring at the carpet. Godric picked up the phone on the bed side table and called to the front desk.

"Yes, I need to have a doctor sent to my suite." He paused. "No, no one is seriously hurt but I still need one sent here right away." He paused yet again and waited for the desk clerk to respond. "Thank you." Placing the phone back on the receiver he sat on the other side of me and placed his hand on my leg.

Turning to him with a sadness in my eyes, "Godric? What is it?"

He didn't answer. The three of us sat in silence for a moment or two waiting for the doctor to arrive at our penthouse. A faint knocking interrupted the silence. Eric was on his feet and at the door before I registered his movements. Eric motioned toward the room yet stayed stationary, Godric stepped out of the room as the doctor made his entrance. The door closed slowly behind him. Godric sat on the love seat across the room. Eric stayed standing motionless and expressionless. With instruction from the doctor I laid back on the bed. He did a full exam of my body, preformed a couple of quick field tests. He placed his hand on my stomach and looked up at me.

"Mrs. Northm-" The doctor began.

I stopped him abruptly. "Giselle."

"Giselle, in my some three hundred years I've never come across this." He paused. "Again this is new to me and I don't know quite how to put this but you're" He paused again. I clutched the sheets beneath me semi knowing what he was about to say."You're pregnant."

I raised my hands to my face and took a long deep breath. "I can't be. I haven't had sex with anyone other than Eric and he's a vampire." I stopped and stared at the doctor. "How is that physically possible?"

Meanwhile Eric began pacing the floor. Godric just sat still and calm.

"Honestly. I have no idea. There's no record of this happening anywhere." The doctor replied packing up his kit. "You'll have to learn as you go with this one. And if you have enough money to do so I'd hire a doctor and a nurse to have around, till you give birth."

I nodded and he opened the door and walked out of the suite. I slowly made my way to my feet and walked into the living room. I took a seat next to Godric.

Tears welled up in my eyes. "I'm pregnant."

Eric snapped his head in my direction. Godric lowered his.

"Well, two thousand years and I can still be surprised. My child you have a way of causing some kind of havoc where ever you go." Godric chuckled out. "My child having a child. This will be rather interesting."

I choked back the tears that began welling up in my eyes. "Eric?"

He sat down on the chair near me but didn't look up. "A child? My child?"

In a soft almost whisper like voice, "Yes." I responded.

"My own flesh and blood?" He questioned even further.

The tears began flowing freely. "Yes." Godric grabbed my hand to comfort me.

He dropped his head into his hands and ran them up his face to smooth back his hair as he sat back against the seat. "Well what do we do now?" He asked with a half hearted grin on his face.

Godric spoke before I had a chance to collect my thoughts. "We'll wait it out." Pausing for a reaction. Eric's eyebrows drew together in the center of his face. "We will wait and see what happens. This is new for everyone, not just us. We'll take the doctors advice and have a nurse and doctor with us wherever we go."

"You aren't going back to Dallas?" I intervened.

"My child where you are is where I need to be. I feel the need to be around you and protect you just as much as Eric does. This child though it may be your flesh and blood, it is mine as well."

Before I could speak again, I sprung to my feet and sprinted towards the bathroom, yet again. Another wave of a violent sickness hit me and rendered me crippled on the floor. My body was shaking and my temperature shot through the roof. I laid on the bathroom floor pleading with Eric and Godric to leave me be, using my feet to keep the door closed. In all reality if they wanted to my feet wouldn't have kept them from getting to me. I closed my eyes and tried to slow my breathing. Eric and Godric stood patiently yet uneasy on the other side of the door. I rolled over on the floor, laying on my back, I began to gently rub my stomach in circles and I started to sing. The sickness and pain I had been experiencing vanished within moments. I smiled while tears flowed from my eyes freely.

Whispering. "It's gonna be alright. Everything's going to be fine, my little one." I could have swore at that moment I heard a cooing sound coming from my stomach.

I waited a moment longer then sat up feeling like I gained enough strength I arose to my feet and reached for the doorknob. I was greeted with the concerned faces of Eric and Godric.

"I'm fine guys. I promise." I said pushing myself up on my tippy toes to kiss Eric. "Don't we have a plane to catch?"
