Blue Jay's Flight

Well Hell

I started pacing back and forth and suddenly, a wave of nausea came over me and I booked it over to the bathroom. I puked my guts up into the toilet and Dick started rubbing my back comfortingly.

"We'll have to tell everyone eventually and Lex will be back soon," he said in a gentle voice to me. "Do you want me to tell him?"

I shook my head. "Nope. My body, my decision. Even though this whole thing is gonna start sucking some serious ass, you're right. We will have to start telling everyone. Or, I could run away. But, I don't want this kid to grow up without a father like I did." I turned my head so that I was looking at him and I gave him a darkly serious look. "I swear to God, if you don't stick around to be a good parent, I am personally going to hunt your ass down and strangle you, got that?"

He nodded quickly and held his hands up. "Of course! It's my kid too, Jasmine. So..." he said and helped me up, "you really want to keep it? Promise?"

"I promise," I replied and went back into the living room where M'gann was sitting there neatly with her hands folded. "I know it's a lot to ask, but I am going to need help finically. Taking care of a kid takes a shit ton of money. I'll do my best to get a job-"

"Like hell you will," he replied. "I know this is sexist, but you need to stay home with the kid and I'll do what I'm best at, kicking ass and taking name. I'm not saying that you can't do it too, but if you died like my parents did...I wouldn't be able to live with myself."

I saw a deep pain behind his eyes just as I was about to be stubborn, and I shut my face. I could tell that he had a painful memory about that. Plus, I didn't really mind staying behind to protect the kid. Yeah, that was how I was going to look at it. Better then thinking weakly.

I sat down next to M'gann and said, "You can go home, M'gann. Dick and I need to have a discussion in private."

She nodded. "Of course. I'll...see you later, Jasmine. give me a call if you need anything else."

I thanked her and Dick sat down next to me. "What do you want to name it if it's a boy?"

I thought for a moment. "I dunno, I've always liked the name Jacob."

"Jacob?" he asked. "What about the middle name? I like William as a middle name. Jacob William...would you mind is he or she took my last name?"

I pressed my lips together. "Jacob William Grayson...Jacob William Hale? Nope, I like the first one better. If it's a girl, I want her name to be Rhiannon, okay?"

He shrugged. "Sounds good to me. Rhiannon...Michelle Grayson. How about that? It has a nice ring to it, don't you think?"

I smiled and laughed. "Yeah, I guess it does. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole being pregnant thing, you know?"

"I know," he replied and planted a deep passionate kiss on my lips.

Dick's Phone Call To Wally and His Thoughts:

Dick pulled out his phone after he had stepped outside when Jasmine said that she just needed a little bit of time to let her thoughts settle down. Since she was pregnant, he didn't protest.

He felt a huge guilty pit in his stomach. He had done this to her. But he couldn't help himself! She had smelt so good and had tasted even better. Ever since he kissed her after saving Barbara, he couldn't help but fall even harder for her. He had longed so much to be with her, to fell her, to love her.

He remembered the first time he realized that he cared so very deeply for her. She was just a little girl who had been thrown into the biggest pile of shit pretty much, and she had handled it like a freaking champ. But then she started going down the road and he remembered the pain and the feeling that he got when he first saw her stealing from someone. From the get go, he knew that she was good. That nine year old girl needed him, but she never wanted to admit it. Now, she was all grown up bearing their child.

And that was okay. He loved her so damn much and would never abandon her. He automatically felt so protective towards her, but he knew that she would never forgive him if he started guarding her twenty-four-seven as if she was a helpless child.

He dialed Wally's number. Wally was his best friend since they had first met and he HAD to tell him. It rang a few times and he finally answered, "Yo! Dick! What's up?"

"Freaking hell, that's what," he replied. "Do you remember Jasmine?"

"Yeah, why? What did she do?" he replied.

"She's on the right side of the law," he said. "I had to go through a crap ton of trouble to do it, but I managed it. Cat Woman is dead because of it, however, and it sucks. I also had to compete with Superboy over her, believe it or not. She chose me, however, and I didn't even mean for it to happen. I ended up falling for her, man, hard too. God! Now I understand you and Artemis wanting a normal ass life. What I wouldn't give for that right now..."

"Dick," he replied in a warning voice, "what the hell happened?"

He took a deep and heavy sigh and said, "She's pregnant, Wally, freaking pregnant."

There was a long moment of silence and he finally replied, "Well, hell. Alright, how are you holding up, dude? Is she gonna keep it? 'Cause I'm sure Artemis wouldn't mind-"

"She was very secure about keeping it," he replied. "There's no way that she's giving it up either. She's got me, and I got a heafty trust find. We should be fine...but I am doing my best to not freak out right now. I swear, I'm about to loose it. the only thing holding me together is the fact that she can't afford for me to freak out."

"Damn," he replied. "You really love her, man. We're not even face to face and I can tell! Remember when we were younger and all you had your mind set on was making sure that you defeated her? Guess that didn't really happen. Sorry, wrong thing to say. Dude, I'm really sorry man. How old she?"

"Seventeen." he replied. "At least it wasn't illegal, right?"

"Yeah," he said. "Do need anything? Say the word and I'm at your place with a six pack, man."

He sighed. "As much as I want to get drunk, she really needs me right now. Have you been watching the news?"

"Nope, not really," he replied.

"Well, Jasmine Hale's father just happens to be Lex Luther. I am not kidding."

There was a really long pause. "Shit. No wonder your freaking out! Daddy's going to be pissed..."

"Jasmine won't let that happen," he replied. "She's one stubborn woman, I'll tell you that, but I love her. And she loves me, and I really hope that we'll be okay..."
