After living more than two centuries without so much as a hint she could get pregnant the last thing Micha expected was to suddenly find herself with child. That was undeniably the case however and she was at a loss to explain why. Of course she knew the technical reason why. She and Steve had never used protection, there'd never seemed to be a need for it. While she hadn't exactly been sleeping around over the two centuries she hadn't been celibate either and not once had there even been a glimmer she might be pregnant from an encounter. This time apparently was different, Force or the Island knew why.
She'd had the typical symptoms one would expect, but what made her realize what had happened was the tiny Force presence that had gradually made itself known to her. The signs in the Force that a new life was growing inside her, a tiny heart beating.
Once she'd known, it was only right that the father be informed. So she'd contacted Steve and asked to come over. It was better to tell him face to face rather than over a device, both for peace of mind and to have a better judge of his reaction through the Force.
She was nervous, Micha freely admitted to herself. This was a completely new experience for her. There had been children she'd helped raise, she was an unofficial something great grandmother to all of Sunila's descendants and had raised apprentices as a Jedi. But she'd never had a child of her own.
And she had no idea exactly how Steve would react. Not that she expected him to have nothing to do with her going forward, but they were friends who occasionally sought comfort with each other, not lovers. This would fundamentally change their relationship forever and it was a scary prospect.
Reaching the door to his apartment, Micha rapped her knuckles lightly on the door to let him know she'd arrived.
