Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vlad barely avoided the flying frame, more like it smacked him in the arm rather good and shattered to the floor. It had been a nice glass picture frame. And its pieces scattered everywhere on the floor. Vlad growled and stalked after Camelia. Oh was she going to get it! First the wine threat, now this?! Vlad approached Camelia from behind and before she could react Vlad grabbed Camelia's wrist and spun her around so that she faced him. He backed her into the island and held onto her, his grip tightening just enough to hurt a bit. But nothing more than what he did in the bedroom.

"No!" Vlad barked. "Now what the ******** is wrong with you!? Tell me!" Vlad ordered. "Im not about to have you break more of my s**t, just because your being a hormonal b***h!" Vlad barked, his eyes angry with her. He was going to find out what was up her a**, now not later. He wasnt about to drop it either.

Vlad released Camelia only to embrace her as she leaned into him. Vlad sighed, his anger quickly leaving him. Dizzy, but what could make her dizzy? Sickness? Maybe something terminal? That could explain things. Vlad frowned, he didnt like that thought at all. His little Camelia couldnt be sick and dying could she? He wouldnt know what to do with himself. No they werent in a relationship really but, Camelia meant something to him just like Bela and Dante did. And it scared him to think he'd loose any of them.

Vlad buried his hand in Camelia's hair to gently caress her scalp and soothe her. "Relax, close your eyes." Vlad said in a softer tone. "You're scaring me my dear." Vlad said honestly. "Come on. I told you everything about me. You can trust me with whatever it is. Good or bad, sweetheart." Vlad said gently to Camelia as he held her gingerly. He righted her and slipped his hand under her chin, his other arm was still around her waist securely. He lifted her head up so that he could see her face.

"Anger, Irritation, dizziness, mood swings, and right now you look pale as could be." Vlad said to her. "Camelia.. please.. tell me. What is it? Whats wrong sweetheart?" Vlad asked concern in his soft tone.

"Oh?" She was pregnant. Well that was wonderful! Kids were so cute, even he could resist their charm. So his dear Camelia was pregnant with- "Oh!" Vlad said partially in shock. No wonder why the girl had been having mood swings and the like. Now it all made sense. Camelia was pregnant- "OoooOOOh." Vlad said as the reality of why she had been pissy towards him clicked along with the fact that his dear Camelia was pregnant. Camelia was pregnant with his child. Vlad's face paled instantly and he visibly sank a bit. His child.. she was pregnant with his child. Vlad swallowed hard and suddenly sank to his knees infront of Camelia. His hands rested on her hips, just so that he could have something stable to hold onto. Now he was feeling dizzy and faint.

"ooo... okay." Vlad said as he focused on breathing as best he could. But he was somewhere between forgetting to breathe and starting to hyperventilate. He felt a panic attack coming on. "Are you sure? I mean.." Vlad asked innocently as he looked up to Camelia. His hands slipped up her shirt to caress her stomach gingerly. His baby was in here? His child? "This.. your.. pregnant.. with.. my.. child?" Vlad said out of disbelief. His child was growing in her uterus. The first delicate stages of life. But life nonetheless. Life he helped create. Vlad swallowed hard again, staring at Camelia's stomach as he caressed it lightly. His baby.. his kid. She was pregnant with his kid. He was going to be a father.

The phrases kept repeating in his head, And Vlad was treating Camelia like some kind of fragile Goddess. And if he didnt look like he was going to die, suffocate and throw up all at once, Camelia would actually be able to see the fear and excitement in Vlad's hazel gaze. "You're pregnant... and its mine.. " Vlad stated more than asked this time. That had him releasing a slow uneasy breath. "You're going to have.. my little girl or little boy." Vlad said with another few uneasy breaths leaving his lips. He laughed nervously before smiling lightly. This changed alot of things. No wait.., Vlad looked up to Camelia out of concern. There were so many thoughts running through his head. I cant commit to her though. Theres so much other p***y out there to have fun with. But.. i cant abandon her with my child. Its my child for christ sake! Im going to be a father! I dont know how to be a father! What if i ******** things up!? What if something happens to the kid like what happened with me?! No! I wont let that happen ever! I can do this! I can be a father! Just because i was an orphan doesnt mean i cant be a father! I mean even Bela's kids.. aw Bela's kids.. Vlad smiled in thought and gently pulled Camelia into a hug. He stayed on his knees, just wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close. He turned his head and rested his ear against her stomach. He knew it was too early to hear or feel anything from the baby but the thought of being close to it just seemed right.

If she can do it.. hell if Keith and Conor can do it then i can too. But.. she doesnt expect me to marry her does she? I mean.. oh this complicates things to no end. And what would a child think of its father running around chasing tail. Thats how this started! But we had used a condom! I was always so careful! No.. no it was bound to happen eventually. ********! What do i do?! Vlads thoughts were all over the place. And it took him a good few moments of silence before he could say anything else to Camelia. He looked up at her and released her from his embrace. "Camelia..." Vlad got up and gently cupped her face with his hands. "Oh my dear Camelia." Vlad breathed before he leaned in and captured Camelia's lips with a rather passionate kiss.

"Have the baby, ill help.. no.. i demand that you let me help raise the child, my dear. Its my baby, i want to be apart of its life. Even if im not sure im good father material. I want to do it. This scares the s**t out of me, though. But.. Camelia.. as much as i dont like commitment. I will commit to raising my... our child." Vlad said softly and sincerely to her. His head rested against hers and his hands still cupped her face. "Now.. im going to go throw up, have a panic attack and possibly pass out. Excuse me." Vlad breathed uneasily before he released Camelia and Vlad then slowly made his way to the bathroom and half shut the door. He ran the water in the sink and tore off his tie and suit coat. Everything felt so constricting, why was everything so constricting?! The world was going dark on him and his breathing had gotten more irratic.

Splashing some water on his face it helped some but just enough to have him looking in the mirror back at himself. He.. was going to be a father... The statement in his head sent such mixed emotions. One of excitement and the other of fear. Two that resulted in his stomach heavily disliking what he ate for breakfast. He couldnt do this! He couldnt be a father! No! He could! He just said he could! He would be the best ******** father- oh no..Vlad dry heaved first before throwing up everything he ate for breakfast and lunch into the sink before him.

It took Vlad.. at least a good hour to calm himself down and finish throwing up. He cleaned himself up and grabbed his suit coat and tie. He slipped the tie around hsi neck but left it hanging and undone. Making his way back to the kitchen he found Camelia still there. He was still a wreck, but he knew he would have to man up for Camelia's sake. He had, in secret, read enough parenting magazines to know that stress wasnt good for a baby.

He tossed his coat on the island after grabbing his cigarettes from it. He got so far as pulling one out before he frowned. Second hand smoke also wasnt good for a child. His child.. that Camelia was carrying. Oh that was going to take time to fully sink in. He growled lightly at himself and tossed the cigarettes into the kitchen sink. No more of those, even when he wasnt around Camelia. If he was going to be a father that meant he wanted to be there for his child for as long as possible and see that kid grow. That meant the addictive cigarettes he smoked would have to go. They were slowly killing him and he couldnt have that, with a child on the way.

Vlad came up to Camelia and slipped behind her. He placed his hands on her shoulders, they were shaking still, and gently started to give her a massage. He didnt say anything but he did lean down and give Camelia a kiss on her head.

Vlad sighed still a bit shakily. "Something of the sort. I think the first panic attack is over with." Vlad said gently. He smirked lightly and shook his head. "Im sorry.. i shouldnt have gotten.. " Vlad released Cam and slipped around to her front. "I still meant what i said Camelia. Admist all the.. panic. I do want to be apart of the childs life. I will help you out in any way i can." Vlad said as he grabbed a seat and sat across from her. He put his head in his hands and rested his elbows on his knees. "Oh this changes alot of things... " Vlad said as he delibretly took a slow breath to keep calm. He looked up at Camelia and shook his head lightly. "No wonder why you've been so angry towards me. Id be angry towards me."

Vlad listened and watched Camelia. Her brushing off of the fact that things between them wouldnt change all the while not looking at him. Not to mention her last statement. Him not having to turn his life upside down? Like she would be alone in this.. like.. she- ********.. she was shutting him out and he knew why. Putting up a wall to pretend like she didnt have feelings for him. Dammit. Every ******** woman! Why?! Okay not every woman but enough of them. Wasnt he clear before he slept with them? Or was it just in a womans nature to get attached? And while he could be a real a*****e like he had been to Mitsuke and a few others... Only problem with this was, that one Camelia meant something to him, really meant something to him. And two.. she was carrying his child now.

Vlad groaned as he got up. "Like hell it doesnt change anything." Vlad said as he slowly started to pace. "I know that damn look and that.. freaking guard of yours only makes things worse." Vlad said as he pointed to her before he crossed his arms over his chest and sighed. He put his hands on his face and dragged them down his skin before he looked back to Camelia.

"You know the thing that makes this difficult?" Vlad said as he held up a finger. He shook his head and held up two fingers. "The two things that make this complicated and changes s**t. Is the fact that you mean something to me Camelia. And that your carrying my child." Vlad stated to her.

"I just spent an hour thinking all this crap over and i cant get the thought out of my head, among others. Of what kind of a father i would be. If i kept going around chasing tail while i help you raise our child. What kind of ******** message does that send the kid?!" Vlad said as he raised his arms up only to let them drop to his side.

"But the whole problem i have with commitment is the fact that i cant gaurantee i wont go after a piece of a** if i see it. I mean.. part of me wants a family and children. A good strong part of me wants that. Especially after ive seen Bela with her kids and even ******** all Keith with his. And Pip's got a kid now too and.... I know Hans will eventually as well." Vlad expressed waving his hands around as he talked to further emphasize his inner conflict right now.

"But part of me still wants to go after women and just have fun. But then i go back to the other part of me that knows im getting old and i need to settle down. But then i start panicking when i think of that. But yet it provides some strange comfort when i think and see others together. I mean where the ******** does that leave me? What the hell am i suppose to do? I mean i would ask my mother and father. But oh wait i dont ******** have one! So i cant! So im lost... i mean.. i have issues and the issues stay away if i ******** someones brains out. But if i cant do that. then what do i do? How the hell do i keep the freaking past in the past. Because ill tell you ive talked about it enough and that isnt helping. And im not about to start taking any damn drugs for the s**t." Vlad added sternly.

"I mean if i could fix that part of me then, i wouldnt have thrown up in the bathroom for an hour after having a panic attack." Vlad said as he gestured to the bathroom. He grabbed his hair and tugged on it with a groan as he grinded his teeth. Fuuuuuuuck! Tears tugged at his eyes and one slipped down his cheek.
