Danielle "Danny" McKnight
His response made her stutter even more. He always seemed so protective and loving. She didn't want to give him news like this when he seemed so happy already. "I..." she started again but she couldn't continue. Her voice caught and she held back tears. She wasn't going to cry...not in front of him...and not like this. She forced herself to take a deep breath and she held her hands together so they'd stop shaking.
When he brought her hands up to his lips she pulled away softly. "I know I can trust you" she said almost inaudibly. Danny looked back up into his eyes and saw sincerity. She knew she had to tell him now so she wouldn't lose her ability again. "I'm pregnant." she said even softer. She pulled her hands away entirely and added "I'm sorry" tears filled her eyes again and she couldn't hold them back this time. They streamed down her face but she made no noise. She just waited for him to respond.
