Mary could suddenly feel herself wanting to cry, wanting to just break down and sob but--she wasn't going to do that around Mackenzie. A baby, if there even was a baby, was a good thing. A very good thing just--unexpected and it didn't help that the potential father was so infuriating and frustrating and--well, she was attracted to him, and they did seem to have chemistry when they weren't busy fighting, but. Gabriel Corner? She didn't fancy having to confess this to him...if she was pregnant. "Bugger, I feel so stupid..."
Mungo's was the last place Mary wanted to be right now. But she wanted to know. Mackenzie seemed to have a good grasp on that. And, after all, Mary trusted her. This would be kept confidential, she knew. "That--that might be good, actually." No publicness about it, just her and Mackenzie and a potion and--and being scared and nervous and, even if it was just the tiniest bit, excited. Her mother would kill her for being pregnant out of wedlock and there would be a whole ordeal, but--there was something about having a life--a little, tiny baby inside of her--that was ridiculously appealing to Mary.
