"She finally fell asleep" I leaned against the wall, watching the end of the hall No one else slept up here, not even Dee, but ht?" Dawson thrust a hand through his hair, gri, and--"

"She knows" I shifted rocery store with Archer? Turns out they were picking up prenatal stuff for Beth"

Blood drained from his face

"She’s been sick, and I don’t know if it’s norht about those damn kids back at Area 51, but I doubted this was the time to ask Dawson if he knew about them and really freak him out "Kat isn’t sure, either None of us knows crap about pregnancy"

He squeezed his eyes shut as he blew out a breath "I knoe can’t leave without Dee, but"

But how irl he loved, the girl as carrying his child? The girl who needed hi could I wait?

Before Kat had ended up here, I’d been willing to stick around to find out as leading the Luxen and how he or she planned on carrying out the ultiy, because I knew Kat was safe with Luc and Archer I’d hated not being with her, freaking droveable to think about her out of fear the others would pick up on it

But now?

Screw the Luxen

Screwdeh I knew she was hella capable of doing so herself, but I wanted her far away from here Hell, I’d keep her in Bubble Wrap if it weren’t so da I had a terrible habit of obsessively popping the da her out of here hat I wanted, but I couldn’t do it How could we leave with Dee this way? We needed to break their hold on her, but neither of us knew theto? What future waited for Dawson, Bethany, andand their baby?

I didn’t know

In thesick, dark shadows of worry had blossomed under his eyes, and I wondered if I should’ve just kept that part tooff the wall, I claazes locked, pressure circled like vise grips around ht popped into ht back to the coes of my consciousness I kneas the same for Dawson
