Wounded

Chapter Twenty-Two

"Good morning beautiful." Maya whispered in your ear.
"Hmm morning baby." You rolled to face her.
"How'd you sleep?"
"Alright I guess. I just had a hard time staying asleep."
"I'm sorry baby. Is there anything I can do?"
"No, it's okay. It'll get better. I just need some coffee." You said getting out of bed.
"Y/N-"
"I know. Only one cup." You said walking out to the kitchen.

"Are you hungry?" Maya asked, slipping her jeans on.
"Not really. I'm more nauseous than hungry." You said grabbing coffee cups out of the cabinet.
"Okay, we'll skip breakfast and go to our first stop of the day." Maya said walking in, buttoning up her shirt.
"You look cute today." You said looking her up and down.
"Thank you. I found you a dress to wear in our closet." She said kissing your cheek.
"Mmhmm." You said, pouring coffee into both of the cups.

"Don't mmhmm me. I can dress nice for my girl every now and then." Maya said hugging you from behind.
"I know. I'm just used to jeans or sweatpants and a t shirt, or a uniform. Which I'm not complaining, cause you're very hot in your captains uniform." You said sipping your coffee.

"Oh hush. Go get ready my love." She tapped your butt with her hand as you walked off into the bedroom.
You slipped the dress on, looking at yourself in the mirror.
You were almost ten weeks pregnant, but you still couldn't really see anything. But then again, most women start showing around fifteen weeks.

You slid your sandals on, and walked out into the kitchen.

"You look gorgeous Y/N." She said giving you a kiss.

"I know you can't see my bump yet, but I feel bloated." You pouted.
"It's normal for a little bloat in the beginning."
"I know. It's just weird. Are you ready to go?" You asked grabbing your purse.

"C'mon. We have a long day ahead of us." She said taking your hand.

*A few hours later*

"God Maya, I had so much fun today. I hadn't been to the zoo in years." You said, holding her hand as you walked through Kerry Park.
"I hadn't either. And can you believe that I've never been on the space needle?"
"That's crazy! Everyone that has lived here has gone at least once." You said laughing.

"Oh stop. I've never had time." Maya said, squeezing your hand.

"Look babe." Maya pointed to the sky, as the sun was setting right behind the space needle.

"God, that's beautiful."
"Yes it is." Maya said looking at you.

"Y/N, I have something I want to ask you."
You looked at her confused.

Maya took a box out of her pocket, and got down on one knee.
"Oh my God, Maya." You gasped.

"Y/N, I am so absolutely, completely, totally in love with you. I never thought I'd meet the one, until I met you at Joe's bar that night. Our instant connection was crazy. I get butterflies when I hear your name, and I feel fire works when I kiss you. You, Y/N, are the love of my life and the mother of our child. Will you marry me?"
