Lexi rolled over. She shivered slightly as she pulled the blanket up. The sudden chill bringing her to a state of not really being asleep, but not awake either.

“Are you cold?” A gentle voice asked. Not extending over a whisper. She reacted by rolling onto her back when a warm hand touched her arm. Lexi looked up into the blue eyes of Ace. He was slightly blurred as the trance of sleep refused to leave her tired body. She simply nodded.

He gave her a concerned look before slipping out of the bed. She tried lifting herself up onto her arms but her body wouldn't comply. There 'activities' had taken a tole on her energy level. She watched him walk to a window that was open a crack. She wasn't sure when he managed to put some short on. He closed the widow then walked over to his dresser. Getting down to open one of the lower drawers. After grabbing something he walked back.

Thanks for waiting! This chapter is a bit longer then my other, but i hope you like it!!


TOP FLIGHT: FBI Chapter 40

The morning was hot, and gave no indication of cooling off any time soon. Lexi wiped her forehead of sweat as she closed the car door. She held her head for a moment. The heat did not help with her dizzy spells. She pulled a small bottle of prescription medicine from her pocket. She debated taking one or not. She was hesitant to take medicine.

She wasn't always, Hesitant. When prescribed,when needed, she took it. Was she the same Lexi she used to be, she would of relived herself already, but when things happen you change. For better or worse.

Lexi closed her eyes, and for a split second she saw herself. Laying in a hospitable bed. Doctors giving her pills and medications. This one for pain. This one for nausea. This one for sleep. This one for infection. This one for depression. The list going on fading her in and out of reality. Submersing her into a constant state numbed euphoria. Too out of it to ask. 'Where is my mother.' 'Where is my father.' 'Where is my sister.''Where is my love.' 'What happened' 'Am I right or did they...live'

Lexi shook her head. Clearing her mind of the 'god for shaken' memory. She put the bottle back in her pocket. The heat was the main case of her distress. Once inside the air conditioner of the building would cool her skin as she would be able to put on a professional face. Her belief was confirmed the moment the cool air touched her and she felt the nervousness in her stomach fade. She entered the elevator that whent up to there floor.

As it climbed upwards, Lexi took a few deep breaths. She could predict a few things. They'd all smile and wander over to her. Happy to see she back on her feet. Tech or Rev would ask what it was. Slam would pop in with how her behavior the week prior to her illness was probably a pre-telling of her getting sick. Duck would tell her about how Zadavia didn't want her going out on any serious missions till they where sure she was completely over it.

She knew all of them well, and could predict there movements. All but one. She had not thought of how Ace would react to her being back. When they first met she was able to. She saw past him. She saw him. A bit of a painful past, a 'ladies man' or player, ****y, and perhaps a bit full of himself. But now she didn't know. The past had been confirmed thanks to Duck, but she had seen a gentler side of him. A person who went against the 'rules' of being such things...

Lexi rolled over. She shivered slightly as she pulled the blanket up. The sudden chill bringing her to a state of not really being asleep, but not awake either.

“Are you cold?” A gentle voice asked. Not extending over a whisper. She reacted by rolling onto her back when a warm hand touched her arm. Lexi looked up into the blue eyes of Ace. He was slightly blurred as the trance of sleep refused to leave her tired body. She simply nodded.

He gave her a concerned look before slipping out of the bed. She tried lifting herself up onto her arms but her body wouldn't comply. There 'activities' had taken a tole on her energy level. She watched him walk to a window that was open a crack. She wasn't sure when he managed to put some short on. He closed the widow then walked over to his dresser. Getting down to open one of the lower drawers. After grabbing something he walked back.

“It's not extravagantly warm, but should help...and still be comfortable to sleep in.” He helped her put the shirt on. They both laid back down. She sensed hesitation in her drowsiness when she felt his arm wrap around her and him hold his body close to hers. She instinctively pulled closer to the warmth...

Lexi shook her head again as the elevator neared it's stop. She mentally told herself to 'Stop it!' She let herself fall into her usual relaxed look as the doors opened up. With a deep breath, she walked out of the elevator. Looking around she could see that all the guys where clustered around Techs computer or in the lounge aria. Unaware of the females presents.

“The weather lately has jest been despicable! One week it's raining like theres no tomorrow. The next it all looks fine. Then it's a hundred degrees in the morning!” Lexi smiled at Duck annoyed tone

“I agree it's been a bit strange, but it's not like we can control the weather.” tech replied.

She leaned on the wall and watched them. 'There so unaware...unaware of every thing.'

Slam was the first to see her standing there. He smiled and grumbled, “Lexi gerour baletck!”

The others all looked up as well and mermmered a similar greeting of saying her name. She smiled kicked off the wall and walked over to them. “Hay guys. Miss me?”

“How you feeling?” Rev asked.

“Fine.” she replied, 'For now'

“What was it?” Tech asked, “A stomach virus?”

“Something like that.” Lexi shrugged.

“That would probably explain you behavior recently Missy.” Duck said.

Lexi gave a quick, unnoticed, look at them all. Keeping her eyes on Ace only a moment longer then the others. His head was down. Lexi shrugged again, “Probably. I did feel a little dizzy last Friday. Can't think of anything els it could have been.”

Again she did a swift look at them all. Making a few seconds of eye contacts with Ace before continuing her gaze. The almost accusing look Tech gave her, one brow up, made Lexi shift a little from one foot to the other.

“Ya kngrelow Zadavia woant ygerou golnng onny realger missions fobmlrawile.”

“Slams right.” Rev agreed, “Zadavias not going to want you going to any dangerous missions till we know your absolutely over this bug.”

“Looks like Ace and you are on paper duty.” Duck added.

Lexi looked down, “Kinda expected that.” 'I was right. Well, almost...Now jest to see what Ace will do.'

“Ace, Lexi.” Lexi looked up at Tech, “don't get settled in quite yet. Zadavia wants you two to leave for the prison. Spike still need to be asked a few more questions. It's all ready been long over due.”

The two nodded and silently walked to the elevator. They remained silent going down. Not as awkward as the week prior to last. Lexi could see, in the corner of her eye, Ace was going to make a move to say something. She didn't want to talk. Not to him, not yet.

So to stop him she quickly said, “I don't really feel good enough to drive. Would you like to?”

Ace looked at her and replied “Sure.”

Lexi handed him her keys. Her look making a stop to any further dialog. They reached ground floor and took for the car. The moment the heat hit her, Lexi felt her dizziness coming on again. She pushed through it. Successfully concealing her dis comfort. She was partly glad she decided to let Ace drive.

“I guess you fixed it den?” Ace said as he entered the drivers side.

“Ya.” She slid in on the other side. The inside of the vicele was hotter then out side. The car air conditioning helped relax Lexi, but not fully. A not in the pit of belly wouldn't go away.

She saw that Ace was going to make another attempt at conversation so she turned on the radio. The radio was at a good volume. One could easily talk over it, but Ace simply sighed and focused on the road. Lexi wanted to talk with him, but not hear. Not now.

The car ride was shorter then Lexi expected. She still felt nauseous and knew the moment she left the car the heat would over take her. Perhaps even get the best of her. Her hand went into her pocket and she fingers the bottle for a moment. She took a glance at Ace. She didn't want to risk him seeing her. He would question what it was, or at least she thought he would. She couldn't be sure.

The car stopped as Ace found a vacant parking spot. Her only hope was to get into the building A-SAP. She exited the car. The heat rose fourth. The black cement that created the parking lot let off rays of heat. It hit her lick a brick. She held her head as it swirled.

“Lexi,” Aces voice had a 'I'd like to talk with you' tone.

'Not now Not now.' Lexi thought. “Come on lets go.”

she took a slightly unsteady foot forward, but was stopped when she felt his hand on her arm.

“Lexi, why are you avoidin' talkin' to me?!” Ace snapped. Pulling her arm so that they faced each other. “Look, It's a little obvious we've been acting strange. Ever sens...Well you know. Don't forget you where the one who wanted us to act professional. I jest wanted to talk about it.”

Lexi tugged her arm away from him and terned her back to him as she leaned on the car. She was feeling even sicker every moment she was out in this heat. She pleaded and begged in her mind for the nausea to ease and go away. She wasn't even sure why it was so bad. Ace also turned his back to her. He was feeling aggravated. Mixed both by the increasing heat and annoyance for the fact she wouldn't even look at him.

Lexi knew she was going to to do one of two things. Puke or collapse. She got the feeling it wasn't going to be the first one.

“If dats da way you want to act fine by me.”

The nausea wasn't easing down. Lexi knew that it would be only a matter of seconds before she blacked out. She held her hand around her stomach. In all truth it was a little lower.

“Ace,” She was barely whispered.

“What.” Ace looked back. His anger and aggression melting into concern when he looked at her stains and face. She didn't look good.

“help.” The last thing she would remember, before drowned into a swirling darkness, was the ground coming up fast, and Ace calling her name.

TOP FLIGHT: FBI Chapter 41

Silents. We fidget under its pressure, yet we try so hard to achieve the bliss of no possible noise. We find it relaxing and frightening. Sometimes we want to break the deafening quietness, but no one will speak. That's all Ace heard. Silents. They had been waiting for a wile now. Non sure how long it had been.

When Lexi had collapsed Ace had caught her then immediately brought her back to Top Flight, medical wing. He and the other guys where forced to wait in one of the waiting room. Though it looked more like a lounge room. Blue carpeting, White walls, a couch, couple of comfortable chairs, a snack bar with a coffee maker. It was quite comfortable, but did not settle the worry in all of them. Ace stood, next to the snack bar, with his head tilted to the floor, but his eyes gaze at the door opposite of him. A light above it glowed a gentle red. Indicating that the doctors weren't done helping Lexi or had yet to find what the problem was.

He took his eyes from the light a moment to look at the group he called friends. Duck and Slam sat on the sofa not to far away from the door. Rev sat in one of the chairs. Tech, on the other chair, leaned on it rather then siting. They all remained quiet. Once again wondering what could be ailing there dear friend.

They all looked up when the red light turned off, and jumped to there feet when the door open and one of the doctors came through. He was human. Tan skinned, fair haired, brown eyed, Middle aged. He looked up at all of the anthros before him.

“What's wrong wit' her Doc?” Ace asked from his spot in the back.

The doctor cleared his through then looked at the chart in his hands, “Nothings 'wrong' per say.”

“What do you mean?! People don't collapse for 'nothing'” Duck snapped.

Tech, noticed by the mallard, shook his head and glared at him, “What I think duck means is, could you elaborate. For, he is right, people don't collapse over nothing.”

“Well, according to this, Agent Lexis collapse was cased by a collection of things. Besides some stress, she was dehydrated. In this heat it turned into heat exhaustion. Add all that to her current condition. In my opinion she shouldn't of been out there. At the very least not in her uniform. She's the fourth case today of heat exhaustion, It's not even noon yet. Some times I think the agency is trying to kill them in the heat.”

“Wait, go back a sec.” Rev said, “What do you mean by current condition?”

The other hadn't payed that much attention to that part of what had been said, but now that the question had been thrown out there they all wanted to know what he had meant. Did he mean Lexi was still ill? They had asked her what was wrong, but, they knew Lexi, if it had been anything serious she would wait for the right time to break the news to them.

The doctor looked at each of them in turn. A look that said 'you don't know?'. He cleared his through again and simply said, “She's pregnant.”

Ace clutched the counter behind him. His heart started to pound against his chest. He couldn't tell if he was hyperventilating or not breathing. He felt like he was going to collapse himself. He didn't know what to think or do. He placed a shaky hand on hi head and looked up a moment. He caught eye contact with Tech. They shared a brief moment of shock and confusion. Only the two of them knew the hole truth. Ace looked away from the coyote. The others where all talking and arguing with each other, giving no mind to Ace. For some reason Ace didn't seem to hear them. The doctor was gone. He hadn't noticed him take his leave.

Ace shut his eyes tightly. In a brief moment of weakness, and fear, Ace had questions and thought run through his mind. Thinking of away to shift the guilt building in him to some other. Thinking of ways that made it that it wasn't him. It wasn't his. But the truth out wade the fear in him. He knew what he had done. It had been a sudden moment of passion. Protection from such a thing had been the last thing that came to mind.

His thought and panic where whisked away when the doctors voice returned and said, “She is awake now. You all can come see her.”

Ace looked up to see the doctors head disappeared behind the door. The guys all looked at each other.

“Well come on. Lets go see her.” Duck said as he made for the door.

“Wait, Duck.” They all looked at Tech, “look we all know Lexi. This has to be something very difficult for her. I don't think she could handle all of us in there at once. And as much as we try, we wont be able to stop are selfs from asking the obvious questions. I think only one of us should go right now.”

No objection to what was said.

“Whorl dou ink shoulbletec go Tech?” Slam asked.

“Ace is her partner.” Tech replied. “If there are no objections to it.”

Ace looked up. Tech was the only one who could see the pleading in his eyes.

Rev rubbed the back of his neck, “If you think thats the best thing to do Tech, I'm all right with it.”

Slam gave a nod of approval. Now all eyes went to Duck.

“So Duck? You okay wit' me going in?” Ace asked.

Duck stood there. His arms crossed and eyes down. Duck sighed and rubbed his eyes before looking at the rabbit, “Lexi and I where partners a long time. From when she first came hear to when you came hear. I'd prefer I go in, but Tech knows her even better then I do...So I'll agree to it.”

“Go then, Ace.” Tech said. As Ace walked by he and Tech shared a moments gaze. There was no nod, no hand jester, or body movement, but Tech could see the thank you and Ace could see the welcome.

Ace exited the waiting room into the hall. He walked down the hall, looking into the small windows of each medical room door, looking for the girl he needed to see. Slowly the rooms passed him by. Each one with a different agents. All but the one he wanted to see. Then came the door at the end. Peking in he saw her. She stood next to the med-bed in the room. Her jacket was draped over her lower right arm, and Ace could see her bighting at her thumb nail.

He was nerves, and obviously she was too. Ace took a deep breath before gripping the door nob and gently pushing the door open. As he stepped inside she slightly jumped and looked at him. They stood there a moment. Keeping an eye lock on each other. At the same time they looked away. Lexi placing her eyes on the floor and shifting her body wait from one foot to the other. Ace shut the door, leaned on in and looked down.

“Hay.” He said looking up.

“Hay.” She also looked up. There was short silent pause. Lexi rubbed her arm, and looked down again, “I...I guess the doctor told you guys?”

Ace looked down again as well. He nodded his head a bit, “Ya, he did... I'm sure I all ready know the answer to dis question, so it's a bit pointless to ask, but... It's mine, huh?”

Ace slightly expected her return with a sarcastic reply, but she merely nodded and said, “Yup.”

She bit her lower lip, and closed her eyes as tears started to fall. Ace looked at. Wishing to comfort her. “Lexi?”

“I'm sorry.” Lexi said reopening her eyes and wiping the tears away with her hand, “My hormones are a little out of whack. It's funny really. Most women experience pregnancy symptoms on the second month. I get it by the second week.”

She wiped away more tears then placed her hand on her forehead, “I never thought I'd be in this position again.”

Ace looked up at her, confused, “Again?”

Lexi looked back at him, also confused for a moment, till she remembered. She let out a short chuckle, “You still don't have a clue to what my accident was. Do you?”

Ace shook his head, “No.”

Lexi sighed and wrapped her arms around herself. She looked away from Ace and pulled a photo from her back pocket. She traced the image with her finger, “Ace, I was pregnant once before. I gave birth once. I... had a son once.”

She looked back at him. His face shock and some form of understanding. Lexi looked at the photo then held it out for him. Ace took a step forward and took the small, warn, photo in his hands. It was of Lexi. She was noticeably younger. Some where between 18 and 20. But thats not what Ace looked at. He looked at what she held in her arms. It was a small boy. Two? Three? Ace wasn't to good at telling the ages of children apart. The boy had large brown eyes and light brown hair. His fur was a very familiar color of tan.

“Why is it,” Ace looked from the photo to Lexi, “You never speak of him? Where is he?”

“Ace,” Lexi looked away. Her face twisted with past pain, “key words are I had a son. Benge, named him after my father Benjamin, but I called him my love, and he's dead.”

“What happened?”

“Something I can never forget.” Lexi replied looking of into a place and time only she could see......

Wow

OMG

That's amazing

I LOVED THAT CHAPTER!

The interactions, the emotions....they were all so real if you know what I mean, they reacted in just the way that I imagined that they would, good job.

And I knew it, my theory was correct!  
Me thinks I know what happend!

Well if you all though the last few chpter where sad wait till you read this one.
 
And thanks for revewing 

TOP FLIGHT: FBI Chapter 42

“Mommy....Mommy.” A light tugging awoke Lexi from sleep.

“Huh?” She lightly gowned as she looked down off the side of the bed. The darkness of the room making everything difficult to see clearly. All she saw was variations of black shadows.

“Mommy?”

“Benge?” Lexi freed an arm from her blankets, retched over, and pulled the lamp on the night stand on. Looking back down she was met with big brown eyes. “Love, what are you doing up?” she looked at her digital clock and rested her head on her pillow for a moment, “And at 2 am. Not that you really know what that means.”

“I had a bad dream.” The tree year old, dressed in blue foot pajamas that zipped up the front and also covered his hands like winter mittens, held close a black and white wolf pup stuffy.

Lexi smiled, “Do you want to sleep with me tonight?”

He nodded and lifted up his arms for her. The nine teen year old lifted the child up into the air and settled him down on her other side. Setting him on a pillow almost as big as he was. She lifted the blanket over him and tucked him in.

“Hows that? Good?”

“Uh-huh.” He smiled, “I'm thirsty.”

Lexi laid next to him and ran her fingers across his brown hair, “What would you like?”

“Milk?”

“Chocolate?”

He smiled wide at his mother and nodded, “Pleas.”

“all right.” She kissed his forehead.

“Wolfy too.” He held up the toy.

“All right.” She lightly kissed the toy. “Stay hear love.” She got off the bed and exited the room.

She walked into the hall and stopped. Looking down the hall to the left she saw the door to her parents room at the very end. Vivian's room across from the bathroom. Looking right she saw Benges room and the living room connected to the kitchen/dinning room and front door. Nothing out of the ordinary, but why did a small feeling of dread fill her? Looking in front of her she saw the utility room with the washer and dryer. The utility room, also connected to the kitchen, acting as a hall to the family room.

She looked up the hall again then continued to the kitchen. She turned on the light and quickly pored the milk. Quietly cursing under her breath when she spilled some on her pink Pjs. She took a straw from one of the cubers and placed it into the glass. Walking back into the hall she walked over to Benges room. Shutting the door he had left open. She got the feeling of dread again and looked towards the living room.

Lexi gasped and the glass slipped from her fingers, “Ryan.”

The rabbit in front of her leaned on the wall. He was all brown. Dark brown fur, brown eyes, light brown hair. “Hay Lexi How are ya's.” His words slightly slurred together.

“Ryan get out of hear.” Lexi backed away as he staggered closer to her. “You know the restraining order states you can't be any wear near me, Benge, or my family!” She yelled it quietly. Not wanting to have her parents or Benge coming out. Benge especially. She'd tell her parents in the morning if things didn't get out of hand.

He slammed her against the wall, “You can't keep me away from him Lexi!” The smell of alcohol stung Lexis eyes and nostrils as it irradiated from his breath. That's when her heart pounded. When sober he was great guy: Kind, caring, smart, fun, even a great father, but when drunk he was violent. She hadn't known this until he became twenty one. When he struck her she left him, when he struck Benge she got a restraining order. And after all that, she had never seen him this bad. He slammed the wall with his fist next to her head, “ He's jest as much MY son as he is yours!”

With all her might Lexi pushed away, crashing him into the wall opposite of her, “A father doesn't break his sons leg!”

He growled and rushed at her. That's when she felt the pain. She let one, short, high pitch scream before her body collapsed onto him. She held onto him to stop her self from falling. The action more out of reflex then anything. He caught her, but still his hand held the knife to her. He pressed his head to hers, “Don't say stuff like that doll.”

He let go and watched as she slid down the wall onto the floor. A red stain growing from the knife still in her. Lexi gasped at breaths and looked up when she heard a small commotion from her parents room before the door opened. Reviling two, tan and gray, bunnies.

“Lexi?!” the male said. From his back pocket Ryan with drew his weapon and in two shots Lexi watched her parents fall to the floor. Tears started to blur her vision. She tried to say something, but she had gone into a state of shock. Her eyes darted from the unmoving forms of the couple on the floor to the small form the exited her bed room.

Benge looked up at the man, “Daddy?”

Still pulsing with a killing adrenalin rush, Ryan shot again. Benge hit the door frame and with wide eyes looked back at Lexi. He reached out to her as she did to him , “Mommy.” He fell back into the room. Only his feet, moving up in down, could be seen. At this sight some part of Ryan sobered up.

“Benge?” He said with tears. He staggered foreword a little and stopped. He looked around. At Lexi's parents, at Benge, back at Lexi, then at Benge again, “What have I done?”

He ran to the door, swung it open, and ran into the night. Lexi breathed heard. The shock wearing off as she pulled the knife out of her gut. She gasped at it and threw it aside. She looked over at her parents. They didn't move. She looked at what she could see of Benge. His feet still lifted and fell. With all her might Lexi pulled herself over to the child.

He looked at her as pulled herself by his side. The brightness in his eyes had dissolved away.

“Mommy.” He shook, “I'm cold.”

“I'm sorry love.” Lexi said as she pulled him close to her. Benge curled his body to hers. Lexi could feel the warm liquid coming from him, but didn't have the strength to stop it.

“Can you sing to me? Like you do before bed?” He asked.

“What song.” Lexi said as more tears filled her eyes.

“Husha.” Benge breathed, “Hushabye mou-”

“Mountain.” She felt hem nod. Lexi gathered her breath and in a raspy voice sang, “ A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain, Softly blows over lullaby bay. It fills the sails of boats that are waiting, Waiting to sail your worries away...”

Lexi could never be sure how long she repetitively sang the lullaby. Slowly she grew quieter, into whisper, then mumbles and humming, to silence. And some where with in all that Lexi could feel Benge's feet stop moving, then his breathing slowed and became lighter, and eventually she couldn't feel his heart beating against her as she held him.

She grew very tired, and when she saw the red and blue lights she could no longer keep herself awake. Death is a dream

Every thing after that seemed more like a dream or faded memory you can almost bring forth, but remains blurry. What was real and what was dream she couldn't fully find. She saw Benge and her family happily, she saw her self sick, she saw that day she met Ryan, she saw her sister playing in the snow, she saw doctors a sergeants, she saw the day she found out she was pregnant, she saw Vivian...Wait, this Vivian was clear with no dream like sens to her. The ten year old was asleep in a chair next to her. Tear stained fur around the eyes

Lexi reached for, but was stopped by wires a tubes connected to her hand, wrist, and arm. She fallowed the vines. Moneters, blood packets, Blood pressure, more.

“Lexi?” She looked back at her sister. The child looked at her a moment then jumped onto the medical bed, hugged Lexi, and cried, “I thought I lost you as well!”

“Wha? What's going on?” Lexi asked push Vivian away to where she could see her.

“You don't remember?” Vivian asked. Lexi thought a moment. Then she remembered all of it.

Lexi looked at the younger sybling, “Mom and Dad? Are?”

The ten year old looked down with tears and shook her head.

Lexi was sure she knew the answer, but she had to ask, “B-Benge?”

Vivian looked up with the tears falling down her noise and chin, “I'm sorry Lexi.”

Tears filled Lexis eyes as she fell back onto the bed.

“Wha- What happened?” Vivian cried.

“He was so drunk.” Lexi said to more of herself then Vivian, “But I never thought Ryan could-”

Lexi pulled Vivian down into a hug as she cried, “Thank god you where at Tiffs.”

And I really really hope Ace knows the kind of person he is (The fartherly type that Tech explained)   

TOP FLIGHT: FBI chapter 45

Ace stared up at the sky. He sat on a park bench in a pair of blue jeans and a yellow tee. He placed his forehead onto his open palm, “I'm out of time. I'm out of time and I still don't know what to do.”

He sighed, scratched the back of his neck, and looked up. People passed by. Couples, kids, teens, people with dogs.

“Okay Ace,” He said to himself as he took a deep breath, “You've had all week. Now ask your self: Are you ready to be a dad?” Ace sat up strait and stared off in front of himself, “Am I ready to be dad?”

Ace thought about all the things he did and had. Children required attention, time, room, money. He'd haft to give up doing things so he could be the baby. Would he haft to sell things? A baby would need clothing, formula, beading, toys, dippers, and then it would get older. That meant 'real food', larger clothing, shoes, new toys, extra activities, birthdays, Christmases, grade school, middle school/ junior high, high school, college tuition.

Ace cringed at the thought and gulped when the thought off added stress that would come from worrying if the kid was safe, healthy, and happy. His eyes darted around the park. He ended up looking at a couple sitting in the grass. A happy looking couple. They had a baby and a little boy. The mother held a bottle to the baby as the father had a hand on the boys shoulder and a ball in the other. They smiled as they talked and giggled here and there.

Ace relaxed a little and leaned back. He looked up at the sky then close his eyes. In his mind he saw Lexi. She smiled; it was warm and nurturing. She giggled. Ace felt his heart flutter and every hair on his body raised. He kept that image in his head, and felt warm and happy. The mental image evolved. Lexi held a small infant in her arms. She kissed it's forehead as it slowly dozed off. Then the image grew again. Ace wrapped his arm around Lexi and stroked the child's head. His hand nearly completely covering the head. He kissed Lexi on the cheek then kissed the child.

Becoming a parent takes a lot of sacrifice, but in return you find a joy you'll never find any where els.

Such warmth. Such joy. Such Love.

Ace opened his eyes, “Love.”

Ace pulled his cell phone from his pocket and checked the time. It was noon. Noon on his last day. Ace stood up and slowly started to walk. His walk quickened. Speed walking, jogging, running. He ran; making his way through the crowded streets of Acmetropalic. As he slid to a stop, panting with his hand on his knees, he looked up at the apartment building. Once he had, somewhat, caught his breath it was into the building and up the floors.

As he ran down hall the door he wanted came into view. He took a nerves swallow before knocking on the door. It was seconds, but Ace felt like it was much longer. When the door opened he looked down at Vivian. She looked back at him, slightly confused to see the gray rabbit.

“Hi, Ace, can I help you?”

“Vivian, I need to talk to,” He looked up into the apartment and saw Lexi standing inside, “Lexi.”

Ace gently pushed aside Vivian and walked over to Lexi. Ace took her hands in his then looked into her eyes. He saw surprise, “Lexi for about six months, we've been partners, and for about six months I haven't been able to keep you out of my head. At first, I thought it was because you where number one and dat I wanted dat tittle back. Obsession wit' your enemy t'ing. Or maybe dat it was because you could tell what I was t'inkin', but I couldn't read you.”

Lexi looked at him, still surprised that he was there, and now confused. She opened her mouth to say something, but Ace placed a finger on her lips to stop her, “I'm not done Lexi. I've been doing some t'inkin'. T'inkin' over all dat we've done dis past half year. About how da more I get to know you da more my heart pounds when I see you. How, I'm actually afraid to say somet'in' stupid or embarrassing in front of you. How, when your not around I miss you.

“I can't be sure, sens I've never felt dis way before, but I t'ink I love you. I love you, and I want to be there for you. Through da morning sickness, midnight cravings, swollen feet, every thing from now to years to come. I want to be dere. For you and our baby, Lex.”

Ace whipped away a few tears from her cheek before pulling her into a hug. He held her tightly as she cried into his shoulder and hugged him back. She cleared her throat and spoke.

“I-I guess that's okay Ace, sens I think I-I love you.”

“I guess we're a couple who think we're in love.”

He felt her giggle, “and I think that was the first time you've called me Lex.”

He looked at her, “Do you not want me calling you dat?”

“No, it sounds good from you.”

“So your the one.” The two bunnies separated and looked over at the sixteen year old who leaned on the back of the couch, “The one who knocked-up my sis.”

Ace gave Lexi a small smile, “I guess I am.”

Vivian smiled at him and gave him a light push on the arm, “Welcome to the family.”

“T'anks.”

Vivian gave Lexi a hug then the two locked arms. Lexi gave a quick look around the packed apartment. “looks like we'll be looking for a new apartment.”

For the first time Ace took in the fact the hole apartment had been backed, “Why are you moving?”

“Well, as Viv put it, in about eight months we'll have a new room mate. We'll need a place that can accommodate that.”

Ace looked around again then a thought jumped into his head, “Move in with me.”

Lexi and Vivian looked at him, “What?”

Ace rubbed his neck as he thought about the idea “It would perfect Lex. You've seen my apartment. It's large enough for the three of us, and if we get another.” Ace place his hand on Lexis lower abdomen.

“I...I don't know Ace.”

“Why not Lexi? Da money you could save, sens I would pay da rent and half da food. You could you dat money for Vivian or your self. And den deres t da baby to t'ink of.”

“I...” Lexi didn't know what to say. Part of didn't expect him to even come let alone ask her to move in with him. She looked at her sister, “Vivian?”

“Hey, it's alright with me.”

Lexi shrugged and took a breath, “I guess we'll all be living with each other.”
