"Meteors." Xander said non-chalantly. "After I crushed them up, I picked up the biggest peice, and it looked like a heart." He grinned, pulling a heart-shaped stone out of his pocket

Cass bit at her lip, brushing the tips of her fingers over the stone as her eyes teared up. She managed an apologetic smile before burying her face in the crook of Xander’s neck.

"Cassie?" Xander sounded alarmed. "Cassie, what's wrong? I'm sorry, baby...." he petted the back of her head

Cass shook her head, wiping roughly at her eyes.
“I’m fine. I love it. I love you.” She wiped at her eyes again. “Damn hormones.”

Xander sighed relieved. "You had me worried there for a second..... I love you too, Cass."

“Sorry…” Cass grinned, laughing softly and eyeing the rock. “Think it’s radioactive?”

"Ah, it could be. I think it's some weird rock that makes people prettier. Doesn't work on you, though." Xander laughed

“Maybe it’s concentrating on making the baby pretty.” Cass grinned crookedly, looking down at her stomach.

"Ah, maybe." Xander said a little uncomfortably. He'd support Cass' decision to carry and love the baby, but it wasn't his favorite conversation topic.

“Not talking about her isn’t gonna make her go away.” Cass rebuffed coldly.

"Of couse it isn't." Xander rubbed his forehead. "You'd be sad if she went away. Not talking about her keeps me from thinking about the father."

“You two used to be friends.” Cass muttered darkly. “Best friends if memory serves.”

"How'd you like it if I got one of your friends pregnant?" Xander muttered, just as darkly.

“What happened to ‘bros before hoes’?” Cass sighed. “And if you’re gonna be mad at him, you might as well be mad at me.”

"I LOVE you, Cass. It's just...... hard to deal sometimes." Xander sighed

“You think it’s easy for me? You think I wanted to get pregnant?” Cass looked more hurt than angry.

“I know and I don’t know what I’d do without you, but, baby,” Cass reached for his hand. “I need you to be here for her too.”

Xander winced slightly, but didn't jerk his hand away. "I'll try...."

“She can’t help who her parents are.” Cass bit at her lip, putting the palm of his hand against her stomach.
