Please review or pm me about what you think of this chapter. I know this will be a bit of a shock. But let's just say that Killian is not going to be alone soon. Although I did promise that I'll add a little lust, I'm still going to keep it a little clean. But don't worry, everything is going to be clear that something FINALLY did happen to Captain Swan. Until then. Ba-byeee

Jimmy

I stopped at the nearest mall I can find. Emma remained quiet as the two of us went on an elevator. It was just the two of us alone. I still didn't release her arm.

So this was the big secret. This was it..I was aware that Emma was a trouble woman, but it's so hard to digest all this recklessness she caused.

"Jimmy..D-Do you know everything?"

"Yes."

"How?"

"I was at the diner when you were talking to Ruby. How long has it been?"

"What?"

"The pregnancy."

She sniffled and quietly muttered. "A month."

I sighed in disbelief. "And yet you still didn't bother to go to the hospital?"

"I can't. Killian will somehow –"

"I know. I know. You're scared any medical information might go through him...Emma, as a psychiatrist I highly suggest you to risk anything to keep this baby. But as a friend I am very disappointed in you to allow such a man to enter your life."

"Jimmy."

"Never mind that. There's obviously a lot to be told about this matter, but for now, just do as I say. Can you do that for me?"

She lowered her eyes down at her shoes and slowly nodded.

"Good." The elevator came to a stop and the two of us got off.

We passed store to store and a few food stands then when I spotted that one store by the bathroom. I stopped. Emma lifted her head and as expected she didn't budge and flew into protest. "Oh no, Jimmy. No. I know what you're thinking, but there is no way in hell I'm going to go in there."

"Believe me, I'm just as embarrassed as you are. But you promised to do what I say for now, so go in there." I released her arm and placed one of my hands on her back.

She looked around in the store in disbelief as I pushed her closer inside. A woman came to us with a name tag written Amanda on the right side of her shirt. "Hello. Welcome to Let the Romance Touch You. Would you like some assistance?"

"Yes. My friend here needs one of your best lingerie you can find. Her wedding is coming up, and you know first nights after a wedding." I lied that made Emma jump a little.

Amy smiled and nodded. "Oh goody, many of the lingerie goes with a new pair of bras and panties. I'm glad you came to the right place."

Emma tried to turn back but I grabbed her by both shoulders and turned her around. "Please, excuse her. She's just a little shy to be here."

Amy placed a hand on Emma's back and guided her away. "Don't worry. I'll take care of her."

Emma looked back at me desperately. "Aren't you going to stay?"

"I have to make a phone call with a friend. I won't be long."

I stepped outside of the store and took out my phone from my pocket and dialed a number to the health center. A receptionist answered the phone. "Hello. This is NY Health Center. May I help you?"

"Yes, can you put me through to Dr. Whale, please?"

"Who is this?"

"I'm Dr. Hopper. I'm a close friend to Dr. Whale. Is he there?"

"Yes, he is. Just give me one moment please."

The phone rang again. "Jimmy, is that really you?"

"Yeah."

"Wow. Its been years since we last spoke together. Its good to hear your voice again."

"Me too, old friend. But I actually only called for some medical information."

"Oh? What type of medical information, Jimmy? Certainly not depression?"

"Oh no. I want some information about pregnancy."

"Pregnancy? Does this involve one of your clients?"

"Yes."

"Well, what is it?"

I dug a hand in my hair and hesitated for a moment. "I know this is a ridiculous question. But is it safe for pregnant women to get intimate with their partners."

Victor started to laugh. It took him a whole minute to recover. "...I'm sorry, Jimmy. Bu-But you sure know how to cheer me up."

I sighed harshly over the phone and dropped my hand. "Now, David I'm serious. Is it safe?"

"No. But it depends on how long the pregnancy has been processing. How long has your patient been pregnant?"

"For a month."

"Hmmm..Then it is dangerous for the baby. Because the process starts operating after five weeks, and symptoms always gets worse until then. You know high hormones, feeling queasy and nauseous, those types."

"So it's risky. But its not very accurate for something to grow wrong."

"Well, many of the women who I worked with risked carrying any eggs in their uterus, so they would remove their eggs and plant it into another woman who can. Apparently, many who later gave birth to the baby turns out to be related by blood to the person herself, due to intimacy after three to four weeks of the procedure."

"So the father of the baby can change?"

"According to the women I worked with received that unfortunate result, so yes."

"But it is dangerous. My client has a..Well an undeniable temptation to grow intimate with her boyfriend when they're alone at home. I been trying to convince her to stop, but she just can't seem to resist jumping in bed with him. So in your opinion, do you think its something she should do?"

"Honestly, no and yes. Being part of the medical field, any doctor will tell you to still continuing lecturing this woman until her baby is born. But being a husband and a father who went through the same situation, I can't exactly tell you the same answer. When my wife was pregnant with our first baby, we were so tempted to just do it after two in a half months of her pregnancy. We been trying to stop any sexual activity, but in the end we could not resist. So we just did it right there one night. But we still took the risk."

"David, thank you for telling me this story. You must be embarrassed of telling me this."

"Yeah, you can say it that way."

"But what do you mean by risk?"

He paused for a moment before speaking. "Well, I made sure for her to not get on top of me, and also took precautions not to get myself on top of her either. The next morning we were a little concerned about the baby, but when we went to the hospital, the baby was just fine and in good condition."

Amanda stepped out of the store and came up to me. "Um sir, your friend wants you to come in."

I nodded. "Thank you for your time, David. But I'm afraid I have to go now."

"No problem. I hope you deal with that patient of yours."

"Thanks again. Maybe we can get together sometimes."

"I like that. Goodbye, Jimmy."

"Goodbye." I hung up the phone and followed Amanda back inside the store.

We both stopped at the fitting room. Amanda stood at the first one covered with the drapes. "Okay. Are you ready?"

Emma spoke out from behind the drapes. "Is Jimmy here?"

"Yes...Okay. I'm going to open the drapes now."

"Urm...Okay."

Amanda slowly opened the drapes. Emma looked...Well, she's like a sister to me so it's a little off for me to say sexy. But quite breathtaking. The black lingerie does go well with her blonde hair, but the see through veil connected around the heart shaped bodice shows too much of her skin. Yet, its going to take a lot for Emma to pull this one night off safely, and hopefully successfully.

Emma crossed her arms across her chest, and looked at me uncomfortably. "W-Well. What do you think?"

"We'll take it."
