"Why didn't we ask her before." Tal inquired as they approached the quarters entrance.

Xavier paused, "I don't know she spends the time with us anyway I guess that it just happened. Assuming things happen when they do doesn't mean its official." Taking her hand. "Lets make it official."

Smiling Tal leaned and kissed him, while pressing the chime.

Sky was sitting on the sofa in her quarters having decided to give Xavier and Talsi some time to themselves, she had her feet up resting especially now she was pregnant again. She looked up as the door chime rang.

"Come in"

Xavier walked in, it was his first time in, as they have always gotten together at their place.

Sky smiled as she motioned Xavier and Tal inside. "Hey" she smiled figuring Xavier had brought Tal along so they could tell her about the baby.

Tal looked around. "This place is small, cozy I guess, but small."

"Compared to your home, it most certainly is" Sky nodded. "Please try and make yourself at home." she smiled at Xavier she couldn't wait to tell Talsi that she was pregnant.

Walking over Xavier took her by the hand, giving her a kiss. "Tal, Sky has something she would like to tell you."

Sky smiled as she looked at Talsi. "We went to see Doctor Rutherford, he's confirmed that ... I'm pregnant!" she grinned from ear to ear like the proverbial cheshire cat.

Tal smiled, "I am so happy to hear that." She replied as she lifted her up. "So, a little one here in three four months?"

"Actually it'll be more like nine months" Sky grinned. "It takes a lot longer for my species to have a baby."

"Well, still, I am ecstatic. Boy or girl."

Sky shrugged her shoulders. "Actually we don't know yet, I'm only three weeks but I do want to know. I'll ask Rutherford at my next appointment."

"We want you in with us. I know we have been keeping things quiet with most of the crew, which is unfair to you." Xavier replied as he looked to Tal.

Tal kissed her. "We are bonded the three of us, it should be only right that we not hide anything to anyone. Not that we hid anything, but we didn't exactly tell people about it either."

Returning Tal's kiss Sky smiled as she looked between Xavier and Talsi. "I'd like that very much indeed."

"You guys go, I will make the arrangements to get your stuff moved."

Sky nodded and stood up, picking up a few small things to take with her she started towards the door. "I can pack my things later ready for transfer."

"Alright." Xavier replied as they followed her.

"So silly question will I be barred from away team duties from now on?" Sky looked at Xavier curiously. "I know there are Captain's that don't allow pregnant women on away teams. I wont be transporting either, it's shuttle for me from now on."

"As long as the danger isn't present."

Tal looked at him. "There wasn't any present last mission."

"Good point." Xavier admitted. "We will see."

Sky nodded. "Fair enough, I won't make myself the weak link that gets someone else hurt. I won't argue that I promise."

"No one will ever call you the weak link." Xavier replied. "You are stronger than you will ever know."

Sky nodded. "Unless you know something I don't about me, then I'll have to take your word for it."

"It takes someone strong to go through what you have went through and move on." Tal assured her. "A life, any life is precious, we all feel the loss. But the strongest one is always the one who carries."

Sky paused and offered Talsi a warm smile. "Thank you Tal, that means a lot."

Xavier walked into their quarters. "I have got to get to tactical, given our mission we have got to be ready for anything."

"Thats fine. I am sure we can find something to do." Tal replied with a smile. "Make the quarters feel like home for all of us and add Sky’s touch to it."

Sky nodded. “I like that idea, if you need us you know where to find us.” She stepped closer giving Xavier a kiss on the cheek.

"I shall see you two later," He smiled, grabbed both their hands and kissed them, before turning and leaving.

Sky smiled a happy satisfied smile. “So where do we start Tal? I’ve no clue when it comes to this forest home of yours.”

"Well... think back to when you were a kid... thats how Xavier always put it."

“I never climbed trees when I was a kid!” Sky grinned. “Show me how we go about expanding the bedroom.”

"Its all about thinking the right thoughts." Tal replied, as she lifted them both up. "We created these plants to follow our will. To do what our thoughts tell them to." walking over to the area of the bedroom. Kneeling down, she stuck a hand in the ground, and concentrated. Soon, the bed transformed from a bed made for two, changed to one made for three.

“Wow! That’s amazing!” Sky smiled as she watched in awe. “This is going to sound silly but how do I get up and down safely when you’re not here? I’ll eventually be out here ...” She demonstrated a practical size for a pregnancy bump with her hand. “.. and I have to think of safety.”

"Just a sec," Tal replied as she concentrated a bit, within mere seconds lily pad likes grew out from the underbrush making steps and a fine grew next to it, for a railing. Letting out a small chuckle. Another second, some plants intertwined each other making a slide.

Sky couldn’t help but grin. “Ohh that is going to be so much fun! Can I try?”

Tal simply nodded

Crouching down she did as Talsi did, placing her hand she closed her eyes and thought about flowers. Not just any flowers but flowers that needed a jungle environment to survive. Opening her eyes she looked around amazed to see that there were indeed flowers.

"So how is it." as Tal simply jumped the fifteen feet and landed as if it was nothing

Sky grinned and sat herself down on the slide, giggling as she slid down to the bottom. "It's great!! It's just like being a kid again!"

Tal walked over to a little jungle where it was overgrown. Kneeling, she did the same. Soon it opened up into an empty room. "Nursery for when the child arrives. Decorate how you see fit."

Sky smiled the biggest smile yet. “Tal, this is amazing! Thank you so much.” Walking over to Talsi she gave her a kiss and hug. “You both make me feel so special.”

"That is what we want to do."

Sky nodded. "Well you've succeeded nicely."

"That is good to know." Tal replied

“So what now? I don’t know where to start! Except for packing.” Sky grinned.

"Now I leave it up to you what you want to do."

Sky nodded. “Well there is that ultra large bed ...” she grinned.

"I like what you saying." Tal replied smiling. "Shall we?"

Sky nodded as she took Tal’s hand. “Yes, please!”
