"She's not the only one..." Amaya muttered. Ever since she'd been attacked she'd had three shadows of herself looking everywhere for Sloan, but nothing had turned up. She had a bad feeling he would turn up soon, just when she didn't need him to. Rubbing her belly as she sat there, Amaya just stared at the table, taking slow breaths as she tried to calm herself down a little.

"Easy, easy...Forget I said anything, you don't need the extra stress." Adrian said getting up and around to gently massage her shoulders a bit.

"It's kind of hard to forget that someone is out there waiting for the perfect time to kill me." Amaya muttered, the shadows in the room wavering a little in response.

"I know, but you've got me to help watch out for you." Adrian told her. "You're crazy if you think I'm going to sit around while he tries to attack you. You worry about the baby, and I'll worry about you."

"Just eat your breakfast before it gets cold...okay?...I'll be fine..." Amaya muttered, not wanting Adrian to continue worrying about her at the moment.

"You're how many months pregnant again? I'm pretty sure it's my job to worry at this point." Adrian said as he returned to his meal. "And I'm not going to stop worrying until I'm holding that baby in my arms."

Seven...just two more months before I can stop worrying that Riley will get caught in the immediate crossfire... Amaya thought to herself as she closed her eyes. She could feel him moving around a bit, probably because she was stressed that he wasn't too happy either, though she rubbed her stomach, trying to calm him, her right hand unconsciously gripping the leg of her chair hard as she tried to calm down, cracking the wood slightly.

Adrian sighed as he finished his meal and got up once more. He walked up behind Amaya and hugged her from behind, one hand gently rubbing her stomach. "Sorry Riley had to come about at the worst possible time. Maybe another year and we wouldn't have to worry about Sloan."

"I'm not upset with Riley. Not like he had a choice in any of it. I just don't want something happening to him because someone from the ring still has a grudge against me." She murmured. "I almost lost him once. I don't want to lost him now..." She said softly.

"Maybe I should start flying Calista to school." Adrian suggested. "It's faster than walking and I can get back here faster in case something does happen. On the one hand I don't want to take any chances, but on the other I don't want to put any more strain on you than absolutely necessary."

Amaya shook her head. "Calista likes walking home from school. It's the few minutes she really tells me about her day and unloads all emotions from the day. I don't want to take that away from her and make her worry more that something might be wrong." She told him, staring at the table again.

"Alright, it was just a suggestion." Adrian said with a slight sigh, a little sad he could do nothing to relieve her worry even a little. Yes, with a man like Sloan there was cause for worry, but it had been seven months now.

"I'm sorry...I know you're just trying to make me feel better...I'm just scared Adrian. " Amaya murmured, as she turned to him and hid her face in his shoulder.

"I know, and you have every right to be." Adrian said softly as he hugged her. "I just want to see you happy again. We're having a baby, you shouldn't have to be scared when you should be smiling."

((I think my fellow students may actually kill my English teacher. They're so pissed at her! whee ))
Amaya nodded, still burying her face his shoulder. "I can't help it." She murmured.
