Mira set her hands on top of his. "Then I will stay right here." As she laid there she started to let her mind wander. What were they gonna do? Would they ever be able to live a normal life? Or would they be running till the day they died? Her thoughts shifted toward the little one growing inside her. The had to find a place to settle down for him or her. They couldn't raise a child on the run.

Despite his exhaustion he was way to wound up to go to sleep. "Why is Cole here? He doesn't deserve to be dragged into this."
Then he let the thought slip. For a while he just enjoyed having Mira this close. It was something that he hadn't even dared to wish for when he was chained to the hospital bed. For a while Brian didn't say a word in order not to spoil the moment. "Wow, we're going to be a family." He smiled.

Mira turned around in his hold and looked at him. "He made the choice to help himself." A smiled spread a crossed her face. "Yes we are. You think it will be a boy or a girl? Which do you want?" She had been thinking about their baby a lot in the last few days. Would they really be able to raise it or were they just kidding themselves?

"He did what?" Brian mumbled. He didn't understand why Cole would jeopardize his career as pro to bust him out. "The kid just made a really bad decision. I know what I'm talking about. I've made a few of those myself." He thought back to the day when he went against Dom's family. He should have just dropped the case.
Coming back to the topic Mira was definetly more interested in he simply stated. "A little racer...not matter if boy or girl." His gutts said girl but he didn't mind a boy either. "As long as she's as pretty as her mom." With his left hand still on her tummy he inter twinned the fingers of his left hand with hers. "You know we're lucky if they don't figure out how we're getting out of the country."

"Well I hope she is prettier then her mom. Any ideas for a name? Wither its a boy or girl." She sat up and turned so she was facing him. "Well hopefully it will take a little while." She reached over and ran her hand a crossed his cheek feeling his stubble. "You need to shave." She laughed a little. "So whats the plan? We catch Walter and send him back to the states? What about after? Go back to Miami and raise out little one?" She ran her hand over her little baby bump.

"No ideas yet, you?" Her words made Brian sad. Obviously Mira hadn't understood yet whats she had just done. "Even if we catch Walter, there's no coming back to the states. You've helped a suspect escape from custody. You'll be charged and some of the charges against me are going to stick. On top of that running doesn't really make me look innocent either." And he wasn't. Brian knew that. "I might not deserve a lifetime in prison but I shot a man, almost killed him." His voice was low but full of pain because he knew how close the guy had been to death. Uneasily he heaved in a breath. "What are we going to tell our kid one day? Daddy almost killed a man and he's wanted by the police? Great." Brian frowned quite ashamed of himself. Could that be you?

"I was hoping...well if its a girl... her middle name could be Mariah...I was my mom's middle name and is my full name...." Mira looked down at her stomach and her heart ached a little. She missed her mom a lot it had been almost 18 years since she had died. "I figured as much....Where are we gonna go to live? Any preference?" She played with the ring on her finger. "People make mistakes Brian..." She leaned down and pressed a light kiss to his lips. "We'll be alright."

It seemed like Mira took all this too lightly. She just wanted to go and catch a mass murderer and made plans about nice locations to live. A little grumpy Brian replied. "If you want to make plans go ahead. I'm just glad to be alive and free...for now." For some reason he couldn't stay in bed any longer and slipped out of it pacing the floor. "Mira, they could catch up to us any minute, you know. Who knows if we're in international waters already?" The wild gestures made his shoulder sting as if it was on fire so Brian clutched his right arm to his body. "Who knows how far we'll make it...." Another dark thought crossed his mind. "If they do you have to tell them I forced you to help me....you can't have our baby in a jail cell, okay?"

"I would rather have plans and something to live for..." Mira stood up. "I know its not gonna be easy and there is a chance we wont make it...I'm not a fool." She ran her fingers threw her hair. "You should rest." She turned and walked out of the room closing the door quietly behind her. When the door was closed her moved to the closest car, Brian's skyline, and laid down on the hood staring up at the ceiling. She pulled her i-pod out and put her ear-buds in. Sure things weren't gonna be easy for them. Walter was still running free and a big danger. But Mira tried to see the bright side, at least they were free for now and out of dangers even if it was just for the time being.

Maybe she wasn't so naive. That's at least the impression Brian got when she told him to rest and walked out on him, which actually pissed him off. "Yes, mam." He mocked and kept pacing the floor until he somewhat calmed down. It was understandable that she'd rather have something to look forward to than be pessimistic. The past days, however, had destroyed most of Brian's optimism. Still sour he laid back down and pulled the blanket up to his nose shivering again. Maybe everything would be better if he wasn't feeling aweful. Right now he wasn't sure whether it was the hole in his shoulder and the infection he had stupidly enough caused himself or the outlook of becoming a father with a woman he barely knew in a country that he'd never been in while hiding from the law. Groaning loudly he pulled the blanket completely over his head and finally really fell asleep.

Mira laid on the hood of Brian's Skyline for over an hour before she started to feel a little bad about walking out again. She pushed herself off the car and walked back into the room. "Brian?" She became quiet when she noticed he was asleep. "Well I guess I'll say sorry later..." She leaned down and kissed his forehead. "I love you." She walked over to her bag and pulled out a clean t-shirt and sweat pants. Ditching her dirty close ontop of the bag she pulled on the clean ones. As she dressed her eyes caught site of her guitar. She had nothing to do at the moment so she opened the case, took the guitar out, and sat down her fingers starting to play softly the cords for Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls.

The soft strumming of a guitar sounded from somewhere in the corner. For a while Brian thought he was dreaming and enjoyed the lullaby until he figured out that there was actual guitar sounds in the room. Confused he opened his eyes and waited for them to focus on the person in the corner. It was Mira. Brian lifted his head and watched her unnoticed until he said. "Got any Johnny Cash?"

Mira nodded and started to play Hurt. The soft notes echoed a little off the metal walls. She closed her eyes and let her mind wander. Was this really the right thing to do? To throw her life away for a guy she hardly knew. Really what was she thinking when she made the choice to break Brian out.... Who knows if he really was innocent....How did she know she could trust him? There was the chance he would ditch her and the baby the moment they reach Japan. He really didn't have a reason to stay besides the baby.

The song perfectly mirrored her expression. Brian could tell she was struggling with her decision. It didn't take a genius to figure that out. That was one reason he used the opportunity to free himself when the nurse helped him. "It's too late to back out now...or...what car did you use? One that was registered in your name? Did anybody see you?" Brian attempted to prop himself up onto his elbow but immediately regretted it. He truly hated being this handicapped. Hopefully this wouldn't take more than a few days.

Mira's fingers stopped moving. "I used my Charger. I took the plates off but still the way it is is easily identified as mine. There is no turning back for me..." She leaned her head back against the wall. "You know what I just realized? They are gonna send someone after us.... and you know who they will send?" She closed her eyes as she played with a little diamond ring on her finger. "Agent Luke Hobbs, the head of the FBI's Elite Fugitive Task Force....my dad...." She felt like she was gonna be sick.

That little announcement made Brian push himself up. The pain that shot through his arm was nothing compared to what was going on in his mind. "Your dad is who? Say that again? I think I didn't hear you right?" His face was distorted in a mixture of pain and disbelief. "You're kidding right? If anybody can find you it'll be him!"

Mira turned her head down and looked at her lap. "Yeah I know..." When she was young her dad told her about his job and all the criminals he caught. Never did it cross her mind that one day she would be one of the files on his desk. She set her guitar on the ground next to her and pulled her knees up to her chest. What was her dad gonna say if he ever caught them? She crossed her arms and put them on her knees hiding her face in them as tears started to fall.

As fast as he could he was off the bed and closed the distance between them kneeling down in front of her and wrapping his own arms around her curled up body. Brian could feel her sobbing and it broke her heart to see her this sad. "Hey, I understand. I'm so sorry, Mira. Just let it out." Here she was. Pregnant and instead of telling her dad she was running from exactly that man. The one family member she'd probably like to share this experience with. "Don't worry. It'll all be good." That was hardly possible but somehow some things had to be good. Gently he reached for one of her hands, which was wet from tears. Closing his eyes he couldn't help but feel his chest tighten when she was so sad because of him.

Mira let her head rest against his chest. She wanted to tell him she was sorry too but the words just got caught in her throat. Things were going downhill fast it seemed. She gripped his hand tightly as she cried against his chest. This was just all to much to take in at one time. She was pregnant, they were on there way to a new and different country, and her dad would be the one trying to arrest them...and she never got the chance to tell her dad about the baby. Eventually her tears stopped falling though she didn't move her head from the stop against his chest. "I'm sorry." She mumbled softly.

"You don't have to be. You safed my life." He smiled gently. "I'd much rather spend my life on the run with you than being some muscle hamsters bitch in prison." It was supposed to be a joke but it was all too true. "Cops in prison don't live very long. You made sure that's not going to happened. Brian kept holding her hand but sat down on the floor in front of her. He was shaking again (although I'm pretty warm right now). "What's your dad like?" He muttered through gritted teeth. "Maybe he won't follow us at all since you're his daughter." Brian just couldn't keep his body from shaking. The more time passed the worse he was feeling instead of better. Maybe it was the tension falling off.
