It was bound to happen
It was bound to happen eventually. The way she lived life and enjoyed herself had caught up to her. It was time to face the music and accept responsibility for her actions.

She took a deep breath and called Mike.

	It took Mike a few rings to answer the phone. It had taken a while to find his cell phone in his bedroom. "Hey Maria. What's up," Mike says when he answers his phone. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Hey Mike. I was wondering if you were free to grab a bite to eat." She stared at the pregnancy test with positive results in her hand. Yeah, this was going to be interesting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sure," Mike says, "What kind of food are you in the mood for?" He was completely obvious to what was going on. Though he had been having some dreams about farming lately. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"How about burgers?" she suggested. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 12:41 am UTC (link)
	"Sure burgers and beer sounds great to me," Mike says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great. I'll meet you at the place we ate at after the concert if that works." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 12:46 am UTC (link)
	"That works fine for me. Their burgers were good. When did you want to meet up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 01:16 am UTC (link)
	"How about in a half hour?" she asked. "That should give us enough time to get there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 01:22 am UTC (link)
	"Sure that works for me," Mike says, "See you then." Mike teleported himself to the restaurant thirty minutes later. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria arrived just after Mike, taking more conventional means. "Hey," she said with a smile when she saw him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 04:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Hey," Mike says with a grin. "So how have you been?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 04:47 pm UTC (link)
	Maria returned the smile. "I'm good. You?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 04:56 pm UTC (link)
	"I've been pretty good," Mike says, "Heard about a cool concert in a few weeks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 05:04 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh? Need someone to go with you?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 05:09 pm UTC (link)
	"You're more than welcome to come along if you want," He says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 05:20 pm UTC (link)
	Maria smiled. "I would like that. There's a reason why I wanted to see you. Not that I needed one, but there is one." Oh goodness she was babbling. "I wanted to see you because I need to tell you something important." Big breath. "I'm pregnant." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 05:31 pm UTC (link)
	Mike noticed that she was babbling to which was starting to worry him. And when she said she was pregnant Mike just looked at her dumbfounded. "Are you saying you think it's mine or something," Mike said when he was finally able to get himself to speak. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm telling you because I know it's yours," she said. "You've been the only one I've been with in the past three months." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	"But we used protection didn't we," Mike says pretty sure they had used conventional and he had set up some magical. It could have failed but Mike was still have trouble grasping that he could be someone's father. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-14 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	"We did, but it's not always 100 percent effective. I guess we beat the odds." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-14 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	"Nature finds away and all of that," Mike says sinking down into his seat full of a mixture of shock and disbelief. "I guess that we have a lot to talk about," He says and with his family stuff on top of it Maria was probably in for a shock as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-15 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Maria nodded. "We do. And right now I wish I could have a stiff drink." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-15 12:32 am UTC (link)
	"I really wish that I could actually get drunk," Mike says more to himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-15 12:54 am UTC (link)
	"Seems like we're both screwed," she said. "Of course that's what got us into this situation." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-15 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"Well at least one good thing about this is we can have worry free fun for nine months if we want." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-15 01:06 am UTC (link)
	Maria blinked and then grinned. "I suppose we can." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-15 01:26 am UTC (link)
	"So some fun there at least," he says feeling a little bit better. "I probably should tell you a little bit about my family history stuff too," Mike says. Mike wasn't really sure in the whole magic and demonic thing would effect the baby but he did think Maria should know about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-19 08:49 pm UTC (link)
	Maria nodded. "I should probably tell you about mine." This was going to be interesting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-20 12:00 am UTC (link)
	"Couldn't hurt. So how much do you know about magic," Mike asks figuring it that was a good safe place to start. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-20 10:50 pm UTC (link)
	"I know that I don't like it," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-21 01:02 am UTC (link)
	"I don't know it does have it's perks," Mike says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-21 05:08 pm UTC (link)
	Maria just shook her head. "I'm not a fan." She took a deep breath. "I have a confession to make. I'm Huntress." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-23 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	Well that was kind of surprising. "Love your outfit," Mike manages to say. Guess that explained the not liking magic thing. Dad always said Batman look irritated when he had to ask him for occult assistance. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-23 11:56 pm UTC (link)
	"So now you know my secret and why I don't like magic," she said. "Thanks. Though I won't be wearing it anytime soon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-24 12:15 am UTC (link)
	"So me saying that magic is really strong in my family along with some demonic stuff probably won't help there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-24 12:20 am UTC (link)
	"No, it doesn't help," she said. "But the deed is done. No going back." Maria sighed. "So what do we do now?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-24 12:28 am UTC (link)
	"Honestly I have no idea," Mike says, "Wasn't really ever planning on having kids." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-24 12:35 am UTC (link)
	"That makes two of us," Maria said. "I'm going to have the baby." The thought of terminating the pregnancy was something she wouldn't consider. "You can decide if you want to be a part of the kid's life or not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-24 05:18 pm UTC (link)
	"I want to do the right thing here. But I'm just not really sure what that is," Mike says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-24 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	"Please tell me that doing the right thing is not the m word," Maria said. "I am so not the m type." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-24 10:22 pm UTC (link)
	Mike let out a major sigh of relief. "Thank god you said that because the idea of that might be even more scary than all that has already happened." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-24 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	Maria let out a sigh of relief. "Tell me about it." Thank God he didn't want to get married. "I'm sure we can set something up if you want to be a part of the kid's life." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	demonborn 2013-05-24 10:41 pm UTC (link)
	"That might be for the best," Mike says nodding, "I was a really handful when I was little." A baby that burped hellfire did not make things easy on his mom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	crossbow_bat 2013-05-24 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	"I was too," Maria said. "Which I guess means we're really in for it." (Reply to this)(Parent)
