I looked at Jessy but returned my gaze to Charolette.

I began to hear first. There was a lot of noise but I couldn't see where it was coming from. Then I could smell and the scent under my nose was not pleasant. It was another moment before I could open my eyes and when i did, i half wished I hadn't. All the familiar faces were above me and I wondered what on earth had posessed me to make me come back here. The pain soon reminded me.
"I'm sorry." I whispered, the words bringing unwanted tears to my eyes. "i didn't mean to crash the party."

I stepped back, trying to allow her some space. "That would never matter in a thousand years. Just rest." I looked warningly at the others but found there was no need. Noone was going to ask her questions until she was ready.

I sighed, at least she was alright.

"Aila, Joshua, watch the doors," I said. Now she was awake, we could plan to get her to safety. "Charlotte, can you stand? We don't know if anyone followed you here and you look like you could use a doctor."

"Or three," I muttered, glad that she was alright. I wondered who the father was. Probably some absolute bastard of a watcher back home.
(((Welcome to the world of naive Jessy)))

"She doesnt need a doctor." I said before charlie could even reply, "And if anyone did follow you, you'd be much better off covered in wards up to the eyeballs, like our place." I glanced at Josh.

"I'll be ok, there's much worse. And don't worry, there's no demon or anything." I couldn't meet their eyes as I said it. "I don't want anything from you, I know I don't deserve it, I just need to talk to Doc."

I took her hand, shocking her into meeting my eyes. I didnt even say anything, but i hoped my gaze conveyed my meaning- i had a pretty damn good idea of the situation, and of the reasons for her behaviour before- if she needed anything, i was there for her.

I was shivering. I couldn't believe what was happening. I knew who they were, i knew the way they treated everyone but somehow I was unprepared for this..I hadn't exactly left on good terms. Forced to look into Maya's eyes I saw that she knew, realised she had somehow figured out what had happened. It was too much and a second later I was in floods of tears, leaning on Maya like a child.

I wrapped my arms around her, huggin her tight. I even felt wettness in my own eyes- Charlie and i had been very close friends way back when, and it felt so good to be close to her again. It had hurt badly when she'd returned and acted like a stranger.
"It's ok." I murmured, "It'll all be ok..."

It hurt, being hugged like that but I wasn't going to tell her to let go, not for anything in the world would I have done that. "I don't know Mai, I don't know what to do. I mean I've done such a great job of my own life so far what on earth am I going to do with a baby? I don't really have such a great track record with them. And there's the slayers in England, i just left them, I didn't even explain to them why I was going."

I loosened my grip, realising full slayer hug probably wasnt great for the baby.
"So we'll tell them." I soothed. "And you'll be a great Mum, Charlie... you've had a bad run, but you can work it out... we can work it out."
[Im here for you Charlie, always]

'But what do I say to Doc?' I asked silently. 'I don't want to screw his life up even more. I thought I could just tell him and I didn't think about what it would mean. It didn't even occur to me he'd be with someone else, ket alone a vampire and I love him Mai. I'm not going to try and win him back, I don't want to hurt him any more but I want to do the right thing, i just don't know what it is. I don't know how to tell him.' I paused my stream of mental babble then looked up at the faces around us. 'And tere's loads of people here who look really freaked out.'
