"Yeah somewhat, it's probably why Sinister didn't come himself, too many memories when he was human," Josephine said closing her eyes and inhaling Shrapnel's scent deeply.

Sean noticed her deeply breathing, and the angle of her head, "What are you doing," he asked her, giving her a raised eyebrow.

"Smelling your neck, your neck has always smelt good and comforted me," Josephine murmured her face relaxing a little and her arms loosening from around Shrapnel's waist so they hung limply. "Humor me a little."

"Humor you," Sean asked questioningly, "You're hitting on me. In the third trimester. And you're my bosses baby-momma. Kinda makes things a big more complicated, doesn't it," he said, giving her a nervous look.

"Calm down I'm not hitting on you, I'm taking comfort that your here right now, after all I've been alone for the last seven months, it's nice to see a familiar face," Josephine said not opening her eyes and taking another breath.

Sean took a few steps back, "Maybe you didn't hear what I said earlier," he said quietly, "I'm still not quite over what happened to me. I-I don't feel too comfortable letting you that close to me..."

Josephine's smile turned into a frown as Shrapnel stepped away, "Okay, I guess," she said with a calm shrug and turned to go back into the manor, 'Stay or leave I don't care, whne you go back to Sinister tell him to grow a set of balls and come here himself next time."

"I didn't say I wanted to leave," he replied quietly. He, reluctantly followed her into the manor. Looking around, he was taken aback by all of the old Victorian-era antiques. This place was quite the spread, he noted. He stopped in front of a large portrait of a man and a woman, a small child in front, sitting on the woman's leg. The man's hand rested on the son's shoulder. He knew them.

"Lifetime before last," Josephine said simply, "Sinister as a man, me as a normal woman, and our son Adam," she said her voice flat as she continued into the kitchen, "This manor is pretty much all I have left so try not to break anything."

Sean cleared his throat. He felt guilty he wasn't there for Jo. But she had turned her back on him already. he shouldn't feel so guilty.
He looked back at the painting. He couldn't help but feel guilty. If Sinister didn't hold Sean in his bonds with the promise of knowing his past, he would have been free to help her. He didn't have that option. Slowly, he turned from the painting and followed her again.

"Don't worry about it, this is something that happened every lifetime for me, I'm getting use to it," Josephine said turning and looking at Sean her hand on her stomach. She looked at him and for a moment let herself think of what would have happened if she had been allowed to carry his children again, but she wasn't so she painfully let herself forget it.

"What's wrong," Sean asked, giving her a concerned look. He realized what his face must look like, so he forced himself to pull his face back to a normal gaze, "You look a little upset."

"Nothing, just thinking of things that might have happened if I wasn't bound to be with Sinister," Josephine said looking away from, "Like if you hadn't left if I was still with you, or if these were you children, conceived because we really liked one another and not of trickery. It was a stupid thought, lets blame it on hormones"

Sean flashed her a paranoid look, "I wasn't aware you were that serious about me," he said, blushing,as he looked to the floor, "I mean, I could never make a good dad. I'm too much of a mess myself."

"Sean look at my options, at least you would have treated me and our children right," Josephine said tears forming in her eyes, "I really did like you, a lot, now look at me I'm such a hormonal wreck," seh said trying to smile but just cried harder.

"I couldn't treat you right," he stammered, "I can't even treat myself right..." He looked up and noticed her crying, "No, don't do that, it's alright," he told her. He didn't notice it, but he was inching closer to her, wanting to comfort her, but afraid to get too close, "It's alright..."

"Sean, you're one of the only people in my life that has treated me kindly, compared with Sinister you're a knight in shining armor," Josephine said bitterly, "Look he was too much of a wuss to even show up here himself, but you're here at least that's some comfort."

Sean shook his head, and backed away a step, "I'm only here because he ordered me to come... I... I didn't want to be here... I was afraid of seeing you again..." He forced himself to keep looking at her as he spoke.

"Why were you afraid, I'm knocked up and in hiding it's not like I can hurt you, even my power have been taken away so I don't screw up and use to and hurt the babies," Josephine said looking up ata Sean and blinking her large eyes, a few tears hovering in them, she then shrugged and looked away, "But I didn't force you to some inside either, sow hy did you?"

"I dunno," Sean said, crossing his arms and feeling insecure, "I guess I still care about you... what you did for me. It's just weird being here with you after all that happened..."
