"A week?" Ronnie said, astonished. She supposed she should have figured that he had been here longer than her, since he had a much better sense of this place than she did, but she was pretty sure Hermes could've gotten a better grasp of this in a matter of minutes. "Blimey. And it really was 2006 for you?"
She gazed at him intently, fingertips tracing his jaw, trying to see the minute differences in his face between the Hermes she'd seen this morning and the Hermes who was here from her future. And he must see even more differences in her, because if he were to be believed (and there was no reason to distrust him), he came from a future time when she was pregnant. "A baby," she said, swallowing. She had been quietly freaking out about it since he'd mentioned it, but it had been mostly overshadowed by the fact that Freddy was here. "You said something about a baby."
