Six months later.

Harry walks into the house tired and hungry, throwing his keys on the table by the door he turns and is shocked at what he sees. The livingroom is a mess, looking around Harry doesn't see Rose or the kids, he knows they're home, her truck in parked outside. Just as he was about to take a step toward the stairs Harry hears Steph voice.
"Bubby, go watch for daddy, he'll know what to do."

With a frown Harry sprints up the steps and catches Andy just as he runs out of his and Rose's bedroom. "Whoa, there tiger. What's wrong?" He asks his son.

"Mommy is sick. She was throwing up when sissy and I got home from school, and she just did again. Daddy she wouldn't let us call you." Andy tells him in a rush.

Harry picks Andy up and runs into his room to see Rose running into the bathroom. Putting Andy on the bed beside Steph, he follows her.
"Oh, babe." Harry whispers as he kneels beside her so he could hold her hair for her. "How long have you been sick like this and didn't tell me?" Harry asks her.

Rose shakes her head. "It just hit me today, at lunch. I was fine this morning." Rose moans then throws up some more.

Harry reaches for a washcloth so Rose could wipe her mouth, then helps her stand, he then picks her up and sets her on the counter and hands her her tooth brush. "Come on, I'm taking you to mom's clinic. Maybe she can tell us what's wrong with you." Harry says as he picks her up and carries her into the bedroom, he told the kids to go get in the truck and they all made their way out of the house. Harry knew it was almost time for his mom and Gemma to close the clinic so he calls her to let her know he was on his way in with a very sick Rose.
When they get to the clinic the kids run ahead of their dad to make sure the door is open when he gets there, Harry carries Rose in without a pause.

"Bring her back here." Gemma says as soon as she sees her brother carry Rose through the door. "Steph you and Andy can go to Gammy's office and play on her computer if you want." She tall the kids.

Harry lays Rose on the exam table then hears her moan again, spinning he grabs the trash can, wraps his free arm around her waist so she won't fall and sticks the trash can in front of her just in time for her to be sick again.

"Oh dear, you really are sick aren't you Rose." Anne says as she walks into the room. "Okay hun, when did this start?" Anne asks her beautiful new daughter-in-law.

Rose and Harry has only been married for 2 months, Rose told Harry she would marry him when she could walk down the aisle without a limp. With Harry and the kids helping her with her therapy it only took Rose 4 months to recover from her near fatal anurisum. She has now legally adopted Steph, Rose wanted to be her mom in every way possible.

"Around lunch, I was fine this morning. Harry, the kids and I all ate breakfast together, he went to work, I took the kids to school then I went to meet Roger at Bert's." Rose says. "He's got a new stallion they aren't to sure of right now, they wanted Harry to be there but today was his day to go to the zoo, and all the animals there know him so he didn't need me there with him. Besides I think if he tried he could do my job, he's to scared to." Rose adds quickly.

Anne chuckles. "You could be right, he always did have a way with animals as a small child. That could explain Andy's abilities." Anne smirks.

"We're not here to talk about me, guys. Let's get back to the subject on hand." Harry smiles. "Mom what do you think is wrong with my wife?" He asks her.

"Well, son I'll have to run some test to know for sure." Anne says. "We have a bad case of the flu flying around right now, it could be that." Anne took some blood, handing it Gemma, whispering to her what tests to run, she then does a full check up on Rose while they wait for Gemma to return. When she finally walks back into the room she hands her mom a piece of paper, smiles with tears in her eyes and walks out.

"Well, mom, what's going on with me?" Rose asks the woman she's come to love.

Anne looks at the paper in front of her. "Well looks like I was right." Anne says then looks at the couple in front of her as tears roll down her cheeks. "Rose my dear, you're pregnant."

Rose's eyes widen and she jerks her head in Harry's direction. The look on her husband's face was priceless. "We're going to have a baby, again!" Rose states looking at the shocked looked on her husband's face.

Harry looks at Rose, reaches out and grabs her hand, then drops it and steps away. He has so many thoughts running through his head right now, but the main one is, he's wasn't sure he wanted more kids. Their life was fine now the way it was, another kids would mess that up.
Anne was watching her son closely, she knew Harry was about to fuck up, and she wasn't going to stop him, that boy needed to learn to think before speaking. What he doesn't know is this, depending on what he says, may be the last straw, he may lose his family forever.

"Harry? What is it?" Rose asks him, as she watches him back away from her.

Harry looks at his beautiful wife again, he then remembers what she looked like pregnant with Andy, what he went through the 5 years of hell he lost them. Could he go through that all over again with this one, does he want to. Then he opens his mouth. "I want a divorce, there is no way in hell that child is mine." Harry snaps, he then lies to make Rose look like a cheater in his mom's eyes. "I didn't want more kids, I had surgery done to make sure this wouldn't happen, it's unsafe for you." Harry yells. "I knew you would cheat like Rhonda. I'll pack my things and be out by tonight." Harry says as he turns and walks away. "Gemma can take you home, I don't want you near me." He adds, then walks out so no one could see his tears.
