dr. mcoy's lab1-Everyone is pregnant...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



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

THe elevator opened to reveal Del and Kurt.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey DEl!" Lyra exclaimed seeing her "Is it true everyone died and you guys went into the future to change the past and got lost in time bouncing around for several months?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"How did you find out?" Del asked "We all agreed we'd not talk about it."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"It's a highschool Del." Lyra said leaning over to type on a keyboard "Everyone knows."

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

"Oh... well we where hoping you guys could check me out." Del said "I think I was gone about 9 months but we need specifics and to make sure everything is ok."

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

"Sure thing" Tom said, turning around in his own chair to face Del and smiling. He'd been left behind when the others warped. He stared at Del's swollen belly "Im guessing you dont want to know the sex?"

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

"Since when did you become interested in working in the lab, Tom?" Kurt asked him curiously. "Besides, where's Beast?"

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

"Im still a man of science... and Lyra's cute when she's studying" Tom said, nodding firmly and grinning widely "No idea where beast is."

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

"And you're still kinda weird." Kurt said quietly

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

"And proud of it" Tom nodded again. He was proud of his strangeness, after years of army training most people would have it driven out of him. He'd kept it all along.

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

Kurt shook his head. "Whatever Tom. You're not lookin up my wife's...ummmm..."

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

"I can do it from here man" Tom said, sticking his tongue out at Kurt "And I wouldn't do it anyway. Not exactly my subject."

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

"Out of the way hot rod." Lyra said pushing Tom aside. "This is delecate matter. One I'm sure where DEl would prefer privacy."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"INdeed." Del said
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You can wait out here with Kurt while I... yeah." Lyra said "Come on Del."

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

Tom sighed gently as he stumbled sideways, walking over to Kurt's side. "I cant remember why I split up with her..." he sighed gently to himself.

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

"That's funny. From what I heard, neither can she." Kurt told him quietly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lyra manuvered Del behind a curtian where she instructed her to change into a hospital gown. Lyra wited outside till she finished
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEl heeded Lyra's order and once she was done poked her head around the curtian.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Behind the curtain Lyra and del left to their task providing enough time for Tom and Kurt to talk and wait.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tom coughed gently and stared at the ceiling, even he felt embarresed about this. "So..." he sighed and looked around at Kurt "Do you think I should get together with Lyra again?"

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

"Personally, I think you've got to whatever you feel is right." Kurt said quietly, not wanting the girls to hear their idle chit chat

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

Tom lowered his voice as well "I think we should get back together. If she wants that..."

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

"I don't see why she wouldn't. To me it seems like she's the only one who doesn't really mind your strangeness all that much." Kurt told him with a grin

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

Tom stuffed a knuckle into his mouth before he let out a loud laugh, finally able to speak again after a little while "When should I ask her?"

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

"As soon as she's done with Del maybe?" Kurt suggested with a shrug

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

Tom sighed and rubbed his head "Maybe not right away... I mean, not exactly a sensative moment."

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

"Eh. If you say so. Just remember, there's no time like the present." Kurt said with another shrug.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THe curtain was slung back to reveal Del nd LYra "Ok boys and girls." She said "Looks like you have more time than you thought. Your about seven months pregnant give or take a few days. Everything seems perfectly normal. You have a perfectly healthy baby."

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

"Seven months?" Del asked "I could have sworn it'd been longer."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Well bouncing around in time may have something to do with it." Lyra said "In my experience it has a tendency to scramble the brain and alter your perception on time. But you've got about two more months before you pop."

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

"Two more months? Well that's better than the entire length of time we had before the little time travelling." Kurt said
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Indeed. I look forward to delivering the little one." Lyra said
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"WEll I was hoping for a home birth." Del said looking at Kurt "It's a tradition in my family."

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

"Then we've got a little less than two months to get you back home. Not a big deal." Kurt told her with a smile


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Del got up and activated the holigrm on her hospital gown. She appeared to be wearing jeans and t-shirt now. No use in changing when she was having her former outfit incenerated in a few minuets "Well we'd better go pack and figure out how we're going to tell Emma and Scott."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Well I hope yu guys are ok. Remember if anything happens we're just a shadow-port away." Lyra said with a smile

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

"Yeah yeah yeah." Kurt said, slipping his hand through the hologram and grabbing his wife's bare ass softly.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
del welcomed the attention but promptly smacked his hand way seeing as how they where in public. She headed to their room where they could pack.

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

Kurt pouted when she smacked his hand away. He didn't care if they were in public or not. He followed her obediently

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

"They're a cute coulpe aren't they?" Tom asked Lyra, standing next to her as the others left "Lyra... I was wondering..."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"YEah I was so afraid they'd turn out like Jean and Scott when I was younger. BUt they are like the cool version of them." Lyra turned off the ultrasound machiene. "What is it?"

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

"Can you remember why we split up after school?" Tom asked, gently rubbing his hands together out of nerves.

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

"Uhh yeah..." Lyra said clearing the area of a few things "It was something to do with British Special Forces trying to enlist you and I wanted to help starving kids in Burma. That was a trip I'll tell you. You know how hard it is to set a leg while phazing threw gunfire? Any way... We decided to part ways. Why do you ask?"

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

Saved your ass on that mission... stupid insurgents Tom thought, gazing at Lyra "Well... now we're not doing that... would you want to..." he blushed gently and stared at the floor, feeling like a kid again "want to go out with me?"

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

Lyra smiled "Why Tom, re you asking me to go steady with you?" She giggeled like a girl "Does this mean we exchnge class rings?"

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

Laughing nervously, Tom reached and pulled off a large ring of lead. "Not my class ring, but will this do? It's a slug that managed to hit me when I was still in human form."

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

Lyra chuckeled and couldn't help from her fur turning pink. "Here." She said taking off a silver chain around her neck. "It doaen't really have any sentimental value but I got it the year i graduated.'

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

"Still pretty.." Tom said, holding the silver chain up and watching as it dangled infront of his eyes. He slowly put it on "Do I look sexay?"

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

"You always look sexy Tom." Lyra sid with smile.

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

Tom grinned and hugged her with one arm "You do too." He blushed gently, the feeling of Lyra's fur against his skin bringing back happy memories.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lyra smiled "Well we've been back a week and hardly hd time to catch up. Want to go get something to eat? I could do with a cup of tea

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

"Tea it is" Tom said, kissing her cheek and walking up towards the dining hall.

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

Lyra blushed agin and followed him
