_{arm protectively wrapped over her stomach as though she hadn’t just found out that she was pregnant, jessica remained quiet for a long while. at least he seemed a little bit open to the idea of keeping the baby safe. she was left with a lot of questions but didn’t know what was important to ask or what would even have an answer. “but maybe they’ll be able to control themselves. we can’t worry about everything that could happen before they are even fully developed.” he knew enough about himself and his own story to worry and she knew that, but she also knew that this baby would have a better support system than he had.}

        _{“i’m sorry this happened… but we’ll figure it out, okay?” she wondered how the whole demon thing was going to affect the pregnancy, but she guessed they had time for that conversation. right now, she really wanted to relax and eat some of her feelings away. “we have time.”}
