A/N:

Hope you guys like this chapter :) and thank you to all my readers and reviewers I really do adore the response I get on this story. This chapter is rated T for a few sexual moments. It is in no way a lemon chapter but I should let you know. That's all for now on with the story.

Three months ago I became the father of Claire Danver's baby. A month ago I became her fiancée. Today I stand in our room looking at her getting ready for a night I wanted to be special for the both of us.

"What?" Claire looked over at me watching her.

"Nothing you are just so…Beautiful."

"I'm getting fat."

"No. Claire no." I moved behind her in the mirror, wraping my arms around her waist placing my hands on her stomach, as I pulled her into my bare chest. "This," I patted her stomach gently, "is our baby, it isn't just fat. Besides you are gorgeous no matter what."

"Are you sure?" She looked up at me skeptically.

"Positive now go get dressed while I shower we have to be ready for tonight."

"Ok."

I had turned the water on and had just stepped in when I heard the door open and the curtain draw back reviling my Claire in nothing but a towel. "Claire?"

"I have to tell you something Michael." I watched as she dropped the towel to the floor. "I want this to be your baby. I know there isn't a real way for it to be. But I want to feel like it is." I moved back as she came forward into the shower, "I want to know what it is like, without the pain and roughness of unwillingness. I want to know what it is like to have someone who loves you show it. Show me Michael." She stepped in front of me and pulled me into a kiss that made me lose my mind. For so long I had wanted this and now it was time. Time to show her what she meant and what it really felt like to be cared about. But a shower was not the place. I pulled away before turning off the water and picking her up. Eve was at work so I had no qualms about walking down the hall to our room where there was nothing to disturb us and I could show Claire what it was really like without pain, but with someone holding you and loving you.

It was long after our reservations had expired before we woke up to a tangle of sheets and body parts. "Wake up CB." I kissed her gently on the nose before standing and grabbing some clothes out of the dresser for us.

"Hey."

"We better get dressed Eve will be back soon and she doesn't need to find us like this or she will never stop joking about it." I handed her one of her favorite tops with a skirt before pulling on my jeans and an old band shirt.

"Good point." I laughed as she tried to hide herself from me while she changed when not a few hours ago she stood in front of me like it was nothing.

"Why don't I go make dinner while you get dressed." I left the room and went into the kitchen to start preparing some grilled chicken, something Claire had come to enjoy in the past few months, when I heard the door unlock. "I'm in here Eve."

A few seconds later I knew that it wasn't Eve who had come home just by the footfalls and smell, thank you vampire senses, it was someone who didn't belong here. "Get out." I growled as I turned to see him standing in the doorway holding Claire by the arm and a gun to her stomach.

"Come one pal I thought you would be happy to see me. I know my little Claire is aren't you?"

Claire whimpered. "Get your hands off of her!" I growled lunging toward him but stopped when I heard the gun click ready to be fired.

"I don't think so, if you move they both die."

"I doubt that." I jumped toward him the same moment a gun fired. I knew it was over when I saw the blood. Claire.
