"I'm pregnant. And I can assure you that it's yours...and they think it's a boy..." She said, now crying
|

|

|
"Hey now, that's a good thing." He said softly, cupping her face and wiping her tears.
|

"but I'm scared...what if I'm not a good mom? What if I'm not there enough for him? What if he hates me? I'm so scared, Gale. What if I die giving birth, what if he does again and I fail you and spiral until I kill myself?" She rambled

|
"Kay..." He started, seeing it had no effect. "Kayla." Gale said sharper this time, making her look at him. "That won't happen, do you understand? You're going to be the best mother and he's going to love you, and i'm going to love you, and you're going to stay alive, am I clear?"

|
She nodded, still crying. "I love you"
|
|  |
|

|
"I love you too," Gale murmured, holding her tight as his tone softened once more.
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"I'm so fucking scared...after what happened last time...I'm gonna fail you..."
|
|  |
|
| |

|
"Shh... no you're not." He assured softly
|
|  |
|

Gale let her, keeping her close.
