Pregnant?
She was pregnant?
The words reached his ears but Aragorn's fuzzy brain did not register their meaning.
A moment ago everything had been clear. He remembered sitting, telling Arwen he loved her, that he had never suspected her [a lie, but a necessary one,] then this.
Pregnant?
How could she be pregnant? His ears reddened slightly as he realised he had not lain with his wife for over a month, possibly two.
Aragorn's dull mind painfully reached a conclusion: She was well into her pregnancy, and he had not even known, had not spoken to her even.
She had sat alone in her chambers, knowing that she was carrying the heir of Gonder beneath her heart and that her husband did not love her enough to question her about her unreasonable melencoly.
The heir of Gondor. The part of Aragorn's brain that was Elessar suddenley became alive again.
He had an heir.
The other part woke.
He had a child!
Somewhere inside the woman he loved grew a tiny life that had been created by that love.
A wave of joy swept over him, they were pregnant!
He pulled Arwen into his arms and kissed her soundly before reaching down to touch her belly where their child lay.
His eyes gleaming with tears of happiness and love he whispered softing, his voice husky with emotion, into her ear, "I love you so much that I fear my heart will explode. You complete me."
