Terminating? God, he clutches her tighter, gaze watery as he meets hers with more bravery this time around. "God, Pepper..." That wasn't even a thought in his mind, but what does he have to offer a child? Two months, though. One hand jumps to cup her face, lips twitching as he tries to make the words pass through.
It's a much longer pause than he had aimed for, and now he isn't sure how to break the silence, his heart pumping so loudly he's sure she can hear it. "I love you," is all he gets out, but the doubts are flying around his head at full speed now.
