Alexis had been sick as of late. She merely blamed it on the scene of that murder. Of course it wouldn't stop playing in her head and she had not brought it up with Gabriel. She wouldn't be surprised if he didn't know after all it was displayed in front of the whole student body... but no. There were other indications that the illness just might be something else.
It was quite early in the morning. That time before Zeke would wake and therefore wake up Gabriel. Alexis never slept due to her severe insomnia, but now she most definitely had a reason to be restless.
In her had was that small test.
Staring at the symbols she didn't believe. Happiness overwhelmed her, but at the same time fear. Is it a good time to bring someone into this environment... Would Alexis be fit for this position? Yeah she looked after Zeke, but for some reason it felt different...
Alexis slipped on one of Gabriel's button up shirts before approaching the bed. She quietly laid the test on the nightstand before leaning over Gabriel's sleeping body... Now slowly climbing on the bed as not to disturb Gabriel's sleep she would cuddle into him from behind. She would press her lips to the side of his head just behind his ear after brushing some of his hair back.
"Gabriel..." she would whisper in her sweet voice... in a tone that carried so much love for the man that had never left her heart. Her hand would grip onto his shoulder tightly, but in a more of a loving way not in a way to hurt him... you know..when you squeeze a child when hugging them... "Gabriel..." she cooed once again pressing yet another kiss, this time, to his cheek just on the corner of his mouth.

Sweet nestling dreams, if they could be called that as Gabriel rarely dreamed pleasantly. Night after night he was restless, worried, and frightened of the world in which he had been brought up in, into what he;d made of it but tonight was one different. The man slept gently, his head touching the pillow and arms wrapped around Alexis and the night passed in a silky dream. He couldn't remember what it was that ran through his dreams but only remembering a happiness to which he'd never known before, the scars of pain in his chest burning with the alleviation.
"Gabriel..."
"Muhhh"
Gabriel would reply simply digging his head in like a tick more so into the covers than trying to hide away from them. A small wry grin on his face while his lids remained sealed.
"Gabriel..."
With the soft touch of her lips to his cheek, a pair of solid emerald hues would part only a short measure of the way, that wry grin tilted upwards mischievously. Rolling over halfheartedly he'd snake a hand around her waist cupping the small girl to his chest.
"Bonjour ma belle."
He'd say laying on the heavy accent to otherwise displace the good ol sense of morning breath hoping that after being together for such a long time it didn't even matter. His left hand would quickly slide to her hairline his index and middle finger playing with a strand of hair distantly gazing into her eyes.

He woke slowly and she gave room for him to roll over. He pulled her into him and she would let him. Now she nestled close feeling the most comfortable. Though she wasn't exactly relaxed all considering current events.
"Bonjour ma belle."
The accent was always enough to send her stomach into a turn that made her feel like a love struck teenager again. "Morning..." it was obvious something was troubling her, but she just didn't know how to come about letting him know how she felt at the moment.
Her hands cupped either side of his face...thumbs stroking his skin softly as she simply stared into his eyes just as he did hers. So there would be quite a long pause and there usually was reason for pause.
"Ummmm... Zeke... He makes us happy right? Like... He fills something in us that nothing else can?"
She was hoping it was the same case for him... if babies made him miserable... then how would he handle this situation.

He'd smirk at her exact contrast to him, the obvious morning in comparison to his overly prodding attempts to be romantic. It would make him laugh if he hadn't heard it a million other times though it still made him feel like the unsure guy trying to get the girl.
"Ummmm... Zeke... He makes us happy right? Like... He fills something in us that nothing else can?"
His eyes grew with a serious scrutiny, tracing her over as he could. Eyes. furrowed with a sense of purpose, worry, concern. Lips pursed in a sense of focus reassuring, he didn't know what to read from her but something was up. Was there something wrong with Zeke?
"Of course,"
His hand would trail along her jawline stopping at the chin slightly raising her chin up a tad and he'd part his lips for a smile.
"One thing I do love more than world domination."
He'd snicker a bit hoping that would be enough to perk up the love of his life.

"Of course,"
Alright so she felt a little more comfortable and at ease... though he still seemed unsure but it could very well be due to the fact she seemed a little on the edge at the moment.
"One thing I do love more than world domination."
He laughed.
She didn't.
She would turn away from him in a little hissy fit... hugging her arms close and across her chest as she stared at the test that was in only her view at the moment.
"Gabriel... Be serious for a moment..." she would get up and sit at the end of the bed. Her hand would reach and grab the test...holding it tight between her pale fingers. Her head would tilt so he could be in her peripherals. "Please?" with another moment of pause she would erect when pulling in a large breath... her back straight as she held that breath before releasing it as fast as she laid the test down on the bed for Gabriel to see. No words would follow...she would just wait 'til Gabriel got what was being talked about.

She didn't laugh, in fact she seemed adamant about him being straightforward. All the while he was just trying to lighten up the mood, he wasn't sure what was up but of course he was concerned with her.
"Gabriel... Be serious for a moment..."
She would say quickly sitting up and away from him forming the distressed Gabriel Seran to sit up, though his situation still particularly in lazy regard but it was a sure moment now that cumulated his attention.
"Please?"
He'd stay silent, knowing when to surrender the battle was just as good as knowing how to win it and just as such he kept his distance for Alexis to grapple that which was tugging at her heart.
With that she'd lower something between them in the folds of the bed his eyes slowly looking to her for confirmation and then trailing down to the test strip. Positive. His face would flush quickly first with shock and surprise as the cogs turned in his head slowly. He was going to be a father. A smile carved from cheek to cheek as the sensation of all things was maddening. That curled chuckling grin contorting his insides most happily of all things. He could only imagine how Alexis was feeling about this.
He'd lean forward settling his hands around her waist before pulling her into his lap an excitable energy about him making the very air sizzle and pop. His lips tucking to her ear whispering because anymore would make the very words seem wasted.
"I love you."

He seemed really happy which was most definitely a weight that had been lifted off her chest. Though she still felt sick...and not morning sick sick but a bad feeling sick! She was tugged and pulled into his lap which was an easy feat 'cause Alexis was pocket size.
"I love you."
She would smile, but as she smiled and somewhat turned to face him to the best of her abilities on his lap, he would notice some stray tears. A little sniffle would be heard before she let out a small chuckle. The sleeve of the shirt was brought up and wiped at her cheeks as they kept falling.
"Babe... I'm scared..." she let out a little whimper. "I'm excited...happy even that I'm sharing this moment with you... but it's just... I'm scared I can't be a good parent. It is easy to say I won't do what mine did, but I feel I will still fuck up some way shape or form."

The sniffling was cute, though what was troubling her not entirely far gone as he could see. With a consoling hand he'd caress beneath her eye lids making sure to clear away the tears. He felt his chest lurching forward feeling an airiness to which he'd never felt before, all his plotting and accomplishments couldn't stand against the might of this turn of events.
"Babe... I'm scared... I'm excited...happy even that I'm sharing this moment with you... but it's just... I'm scared I can't be a good parent. It is easy to say I won't do what mine did, but I feel I will still fuck up some way shape or form."
His forehead would bump against hers, the bridge of his nose touching hers a cooing sort of breath filling his lungs with hers. The softest of whispers being the tone in which he was speaking.
"You'll be a great mother, look at all you've done for Zeke, for Olivia, for your knuckle-headed brother..."
He'd laugh a small bit before wrapping his arms around her into a tight embrace. They'd both been through some rough times, but all those times had made them into who they were. In all truth they were made better for it.
"You and I. We're different people now, we'll be better people, for whats coming."
He'd smile and kiss her softly afraid to let go.

She listened to what he had said and she would have to agree. She looked after Zeke, Olivia, and even Donnie. Yeah she had her fair share of fuck ups for each of them, but everyone makes mistakes... and she wasn't in it alone... she had a handsome Frenchie's hand in marriage.
"I suppose you're right.... Still scary as shit." she would laugh behind all the tears that were slowly drying away. Alexis returned his kiss and smiled once again after. She stood up off him and grabbed a pillow. With a wide grin she slid the pillow up her shirt and looked at her profile in the mirror. Alexis slouched to make herself a bit bigger to add onto the effect the pillow was giving.
"Fuck..I'm gonna be sexy..." she would say in a sarcastic tone while looking at Gabriel with raised brows of disbelief. "At least my tits will make up for it."

Letting her out of his grip was a thing surely Gabriel didn't want to do but Alexis was powerfully compelling even with the slightest touch. Inclining not to pursue her and rather stretch out in the empty bed Gabriel's dominant arm would be leaned upon, bending at a ninety degree angle he'd rest his forehead on and open palm inclining his vision to the side of it watching as Alexis played with the pillow enacting a portrayal of what pregnancy would do to her figure. He'd spark a clever little grin in the reflection of the mirror as she slouched and made the effort to be more so in the aspect playing off the very convincing part of her personality and never taking a role half assed.
"Fuck..I'm gonna be sexy..." The firm endowment of that grin still held in place not saying a thing but apparently thinking along the same lines as her just being less inclined to speak out about them at least so... "At least my tits will make up for it."[
Quickly...
Gabriel would snort in a squealing sort of laughter that was unbecoming of him naturally being quick to detour into the confines of the covers to veil his features blushing with rampant hilarity at his enjoyment of Alexis' comment. Returning however just as fast with his teeth melded around a balled palm, cheeks rocketing skyward he fought back the proverbial tone though between the two of them this was commonplace. This house, let alone this room was rated X.
"Thinking hand size or bigger?"
Gabriel would quickly raise his hands up to her chest not physically grabbing but rather measuring from perspective with verbose inclinations in a grabbing gesture. A careening grin of course contoured across his lips.

She giggled at how he reacted and she was still really giggly on the whole fact that she just found out she was having a baby... on her own! It wasn't going to be someone else's kid! As Gabriel dwelled on the imagery of how her breasts would turn out she finally focused back onto the conversation just in time to reply to his silly question.
"One can only dream." her voice sounded as if she were trapped in a daydream just to make the stupid joke delve into full effect. She would sit on Gabriel's lap and sling her slender arms around his neck.
"Wow... soon there will be a mini me or mini you running around." her face would fall straight serious...though unbeknownst to Gabriel it would only be for another poor attempt at a joke... which was never Alexis' forte(maybe if it was at someone's expense and dignity then that would be her time to shine) "The world is doomed!"

His face froze in a sort of mixed concern. The relevance of that reasoning, a little her or him for that matter was scary as they'd both had their hardships in life. Alexis with her abusive family, past of lying and stealing her way through every encounter. Gabriel with his bloodied past and conflicts with anything that made him feel insecure. Would their children suffer the same way they did?
"Hmm you don't think..."
He'd contemplate for a second letting his eyes travel to the wall and then the window letting the brief swath of fresh cool air bath across his flesh the breath giving his lungs a moment of heaving.
"They won't grow up like we did? Promise me they won't."
His voice speculative, a mixture between a plea and a command. Even in the womb he feared for their safety, something only reasonable.
