In case of baby...panic!

Cerdian walked up the stairs to Lian's apartment with the box of chocolate, running through a breathing exercise in his head. Today, he would tell Lian that he loved her and apologize for treating her so poorly. He would find out if she had it in her heart to forgive him and then the would figure out what that meant in regard to her life now. He would tell her that he wasn't marrying anyone and that he only wanted to be with her.

Upon arriving at Lian's door, Cerdian knocks three times and waits for her to answer.

Suddenly, he realizes he forgot the flowers.

Lian had been feeling lousy all day. Between getting kicked to death, her entire body ached and she hadn't gotten a wink of sleep in the previous night.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm coming," she said, rolling her eyes. Between her father and Tim, she was getting really sick of people showing up to "check on her". She wasn't a baby, and she was perfectly capable of handling herself.

She heaved a sigh when she looked through the peephole and saw Cerdian on the other side. She opened the door, stone faced.

"I'm fine, I'm dying and now that that's out of the way, you can go back to doing whatever it was you were doing. I'm sure you had better things to do, anyway."

	Cerdian blinks at Lian's cold greeting. It leaves him speechless for a moment. When he finds his tongue, he can't help himself. "Gee, we've already gone from 'I love you' to 'Leave Me Alone.' I thought humans had to have a relationship to have divorce, but not us, right, Lian?" Cerdian asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You made it pretty clear that you wanted nothing to do with me. I'm just making it quick, so you can back to banging your fiance, or whatever it was you were doing before Tim called you to play babysitter." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Cerdian couldn't believe his ears. He'd only wanted to be selfless by not telling her he loved her and now she was using it against him. Had he wounded her /that/ deeply.

"Well, I was fighting for my life in Atlantis, in case you missed the news reports. But then, you don't care about that sort of thing. I already died defending you, so I have no further purpose in your life anymore.

Did I interrupt your ninth reunion with Damien this time, hmm? Or is this number ten? Is that why you want me gone so badly?" Cerdian asks, going to look around the apartment.

	"Cold hearted bitch with a heart of stone, that's me," Lian said, her tone dry. She narrowed her eyes at him. "Damien is gone. I told you I sent him away. Do you need to scan for him to make sure he's not invisible before you report back to Tim?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You said it, not me." Cerdian fires back.

"I don't report to Tim or anyone else. I actually came here to...no, forget why I came. It doesn't matter. I'm not coming back so do what you want, Lian.

You've made a talent of pushing people away, Lian. Someday soon, you'll get what you always wanted; you'll be alone." Cerdian says, turning to leave the apartment, tossing the heart shaped box of candy in the trash on his way to the door.

He was a fool to believe that Lian might be in love with him. Maybe it was time to allow Father to marry him off to some woman who might respect him.

It would be better than this.

	"I told you how I felt, Cerdian," Lian said. "You're the one that made it pretty clear that you didn't feel the same way, and that you wanted nothing to do with me. Forgive me for not welcoming you with open arms." Lian felt a rush of pain as he turned to leave, and she gasped loudly. No. No, it was too soon...she still had a few weeks left.

	And now, Cerdian loses his temper, whirling to face Lian. "I didn't say I didn't love you! What part of that don't you get, Lian! All I have /ever/ wanted is /you/! But all you--" Cerdian watches as Lian gasps and stops in his tracks. "Lian...what's going on?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lian winced as another pain shot through her body...and soon there was a puddle on the floor surrounding her. "I think I'm going into labor." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Connor had left his son with the sitter. No need to draw any possible attention from Lian and her Twins that he knew were going to be adorable. When he walked in he immediately noticed that something was off and did not feel right. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Roy sees Mia and Connor and goes over to them, leading them out of Lian's room. "Hey, you two. Is Ollie here yet? There's a problem. A big problem" Roy says. "One of the twins was kidnapped." Roy says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Connor nodded. "If there's anything I can do to help just let me know," He says. There was no way Damien was going to get away with this. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Connor, I need /you/ to keep Ollie calm. I don't know what he'll do, whether it be console Lian or suit up again to go after Damien. After everything that's happened with Keith...I don't which way he'll go." Roy says. "I may need you to back me up sooner rather than later, though, if you're up for that kind of thing." Roy says.

	"Mia! Connor! Roy!" Ollie came in with a smile on his face and a bunch of flowers in hand. Dinah was following close behind him. There was an obvious skip in his step. But as he got closer and noticed the looks on their faces, he slowed his pace and grew a worried frown. "What's wrong?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
