Custody...oh Merlin, she could already feel tears welling up at the thought of losing her son and--no that was not what he was suggesting! Perhaps it would be easier to discuss names for their son first. Having a name to blame all of her aches and pains on and a name to dote on and just--it would be exciting, finally having something to call the active baby in her womb by.
She was worried about how all of this would pan out. It seemed like she was so alone in the pregnancy. If she had a craving late at night, she had to find a way of filling it. If she needed to get a quick answer from a healer, it meant her going and figuring it out. She had friends who were more than willing to be chatty and friendly and just generally there for her, but at the end of the day her only companion was one that liked to kick at her and couldn't even talk back if she truly wanted to. But of course, she pushed through all of it. Being able to feel the baby kicking at her after a long day at work had a strong tendency to make things better.
"I'm not going to--Gabriel, I couldn't keep you from him that would be--and, I mean, after everything--I would be a horrible person to even think about keeping him away from you." If anything, the baby probably needed to stay away from her. She was, after all, the one getting caught in the cross fire with her dangerous friends and creating a very life threatening situation for herself and for their son. She let out a soft sigh as she sat gingerly back down on the bed. "But...names first? Did you have anything in particular in mind or are we just winging this?" They had discussed the matter previously, but nothing had resulted of it thus far. Maybe today would be the day.
