"Your pregnant! I can't believe this! I'm going to be an aunt! This is so exciting!"
"Kristina! Calm down and please stop jumping up and down it's really not helping the situation." Alexis said feeling natious again.
"Of course I'm sorry." Kristna said coming to sit down on the edge of Alexis' bed. "Well give me all the details." she asked excitedly.
"Details?"
"Yes, who's the father for one?"
"I don't even know that there is a father." Alexis stated which earned a confused look from Kristina.
"I mean I don't know if I'm actually pregnant which means that the man in question may not be a father.
Putting that confusing statement aside Kristina decided to deal with the facts, one of Alexis' favorite passtimes.
"Okay so the first thing we need to do is find out for sure." A look of terror streaked across Alexis' face.
"What's wrong?"
"What if I am? What am I going to do?"
"Alexis if you are pregnant you are going to have an adorable baby that you will fuss over and I can spoil and everything will be fine I promise."
How was it that Kristina could make it seem as though this were perfectly acceptable?
"You don't understand," Alexis insisted. "I'm not the mothering type. I don't know what to do with children, Ned's daughter could barely stand me even before I broke her fathers heart in front of half the town."
"Alexis this would be your child, it's different."
"Of course it's different," Alexis replied, "this child would rely on me for everything, including food. I don't know how to cook. It's not that I haven't tried but I'm completely innept. The child will live entirely on takeout, that can't be healthy. Children need food cooked in an actual oven. And what about diapers? I don't know how to change one, I've seen other people do it, sure it looks easy enough, but what if I can't do it and the child ends up with some sort of complex because I didn't do it right?"
"Alexis breath. First of all you don't even know if you are pregnant. I think you should take a test." The hospital? What if someone she knew saw her.
"No I don't want to go to the hospital." Alexis stated beginning to panic again. "Alright how about a home pregnancy test?" Kristina suggested.
"Yeah I guess" Alexis replied reluctantly.
"Great I'll go buy one," Kristina said walking towards the door. She knew if she left it to Alexis the child would be born before she bought it.
"Right now?" Alexis asked unknowingly proving Kristina right.
"Well you need to know the sooner the better." With that she headed downstairs to grab her coat.
Jax walked through the store picking up the last couple items he needed. He should have done this last night he thought, but instead he had gone to Alexis' hoping they would have a chance to talk. Kristina was there and the three of them hung out for awhile. Then Kristina said she had to go meet Ned for dinner. Alexis claimed she had a headache and was going to go upstairs and lie down giving Jax no choice but to leave with Kristina. Dammit the woman was stubborn. She had been avoiding him for two months and he had had enough. It was time to confront her.
Just then Jax noticed Kristina in the checkout line staring into space and completely oblivious to his presence. He was about to get her attention when he realized what she was holding in her hand, it was a pregnancy test. Jax backed out of sight and took a minute to process the information. Kristina was pregnant? Or at least she thought she might be. He knew that she and Ned had been getting closer but he hadn't realized they were sleeping together. At once he became angry with Ned, how could he do this to Kristina? How could he do this to Alexis? He could only imagine what finding out that Kristina was pregnant with Ned's child was going to do to her.
Jax quickly paid for his items and left the store, Kristina was now long gone. He got in his car and took off in the direction of the Quartermain mansion, he was going to kill Ned.
