Warnings:none

I make my way down to the lab, feeling something in my gut telling me that I'm not going to like whatever I'm going to hear. Hands shaking, I open the door to the lab and strangely just see Bruce--no Tony. Bruce gives me a warm smile as he greets me, but his eyes show something else. Worry?

"Hey Bruce, how's it going?" I ask a bit shakily, trying but failing to hide my nerves.

"Good. Good. How are you feeling?" He asks me, with a nervous smile that causes my heart to pound.

"Any nausea, spotting, cramps?" He continues on, and I look at him suspiciously.

"Okay, what's wrong Bruce?"

"So you didn't know. Y/n, when we took this month's blood test, it showed that you are pregnant."

Time stops. I swear I heard him wrong but when he starts talking about options, I realize that I heard him right. As he drones on, he voice becomes background noise as I try to think back on the last time I slept with Logan. We definitely used a condom, and I'm on birth control. This shouldn't be possible. Would he even want this baby? Am I capable of being a mom? Would I be okay with being a single mom? What will the others think about me leaving the Avengers if I keep it?

"Y/n, are you okay?"

I finally snap out of my trance and shake my head no before leaving the lab and going to my room.

--------------------------------------

Once in my room, I run a bath, burn incense, light candles and call Auntie Carol. She's the only one I can trust with this information that will also give me sound advice of what to do.

"I'm going to have another niece or nephew?!" She exclaims on the other end, obviously missing the anxiety in my voice.

"Auntie..."

"I'm sorry! How do you feel? Does your dad know?"

I sigh shakily and try to fight back tears.

"No he doesn't know. I don't know what to do and I'm freaking out." I say letting my tears finally fall.

"I'm coming to visit." She says definitely and while I really need her to, I talk her out of it knowing that my dad will grow suspicious about her spontaneously coming to visit.

"I'll be okay. I think for now, I just need to stay calm and talk to Logan."

Who is probably still mad at me.

"Okay Sergeant Trouble. Let me know if I need to kick his ass okay? Love you."

"Yes ma'am I will. And love you too Auntie." I hang up feeling much more calm than before and sink into my tub.

I then text Logan asking if we can meet to talk about something uber important tomorrow and try to relax in the bath as I wait for his answer.

After my bath, I drag myself to my bed and finally check my phone. Unsurprisingly, Logan hadn't answered yet. I chuck my phone across the room, shattering the screen in an odd brief moment of anger and lie face down into my pillows and scream. Not long after, there's a knock on my door. I swing the door open, ready to curse out whoever's there but freeze as I see Logan.
