Pyxis was shaking. Physically shaking from what had happened to her. She looked at herself in her mirror, her eyes puffy and red from crying so much. Her trip to the nurses had not ended as she'd hoped it would and now... Now she just felt completely terrified. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then started down the hall towards Walden's office.

She knocked a couple of times, then walked in. She didn't even know what to say. She just stared at him for a long moment, leaning against the door frame.

Their child. Walden smiled a little at that, touching Pyxis's hair. "We're both responsible for it. Once you're out, things will be a lot easier. You could move in with me. I'd make sure you were both okay."

He touched her stomach and then kissed her again. "I'm sorry this happened, but I love you. I love being with you and I'm going to make sure you and the baby have a good life. No matter what."

	"How can you guarantee that?" Pyxis asked quietly as she looked back at him. "My family won't take my baby if I'm still in here by the time it's born. Or if they do, they'll mistreat it. I can't just give you my child. That would be too obvious." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We'll figure something out," Walden promised Pyxis, touching her hair. "I'm not going to let them take your child away from you, Pyxis. You're able to take care of yourself. You're not a threat to it. You can take care of him or her in here. The nurses will help and so will I."

Walden wasn't sure how Snape would feel about it, but he was prepared to fight for this. "It'll be okay, Pyxis. I promise."

Pyxis was not convinced, in the slightest, that Walden could make this okay. She looked back at him for a long moment, studying his eyes. She knew that he really thought that this was going to be okay, but she still wasn't sure it would be.

"They won't let Rider see it." Pyxis pointed out. "They'll think it's his and they'll keep it away from him. He's the only friend I have here."

"You and Rider can see each other still, though," Walden said, trying to think of a way to make that work. Pyxis had a point. "We'll figure something else. I can tell them I think it's better for Rider to get to know his child. And supervise the visits."

He touched Pyxis's elbow. "And as long as you don't have the baby with you, you'll be able to see Rider whenever you want. Snape might make sure it wasn't rape and you're not projecting anything onto him first, but that will be easy. We both know you're not."

	"Snape isn't an idiot. He knows Rider wouldn't rape me. Especially with all the drugs he's been on." Pyxis sighed heavily and looked back at Walden. She closed her eyes and then rested her forehead against his shoulder. "You want me to get rid of it, don't you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Walden frowned, petting at Pyxis and holding her close. "Of course not," he said. "Not unless that's what you want. I love you, Pyxis. I want to have a future with you. With our baby. But if you don't want to keep it, you don't have to. Just... I would be thrilled to have a family with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Pyxis pressed closer to him and let out a soft sigh. Her hand slid beneath his shirt, touching his skin as she kissed his neck tenderly. "I love you too. And I want that. Even if I don't think you should be stuck with someone crazy like me for the rest of your life." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Walden shook his head, kissing the top of Pyxis's head. "Don't be ridiculous. I'd be very lucky to spend my life with you." He smiled, pulling back a little to kiss her again. "I know that even if you can't see it yet. We're working on it." (Reply to this)(Parent)
