A Day Of Romance: The Missing Pieces of 5x07

Conversations

A/N: Just a reminder, there will be no smut in this chapter. There will most likely be a lot of fluff, but you will get domestic Marina, talking about Maya's 24-hour shift, little Pru, etc. But, don't worry, I will also add the beautiful speech she gives about who is carrying.

*****

"Take a seat, bambina," Carina said with a smile as they finally entered the kitchen.

The blonde listened to her wife, taking a seat by their dining room table while the doctor walked to the refrigerator to retrieve their snack. As she opened it, right away, she found the plate of strawberries drizzled with chocolate before closing it and made her way towards the table sitting on top. 

"So, how was work?" She questioned, wanting to know if anything interested happened during her wife's shift while placing a piece of strawberry on the fork and feeding the blonde.

Maya shrugged. It was definitely interesting, to say the least, with Vic and Jack not being at work. Since the day of the pipeline explosion, the curly-haired woman was recovering from her heart attack while the other has not gone to work since Thanksgiving. Everyone at Station 19 was still grieving for the loss of Dean. It was always difficult when one of their own died.

"Pretty good, we had a call last night which we got out quick. Travis hurt his back." She chuckled, shaking her head at the thought of the man's comments this morning. "Then, Beckett was actually giving us compliments before we left."

"That seems interesting about Beckett."  Carina giggled, continuing to eat a strawberry. 

"That reminds me, Ben told me to tell you he owns you a conversation about the clinic idea. But, he and Miranda are trying to deal with the whole custody thing with Pru." 

The Italian nodded in understanding. Although she understood the loss of a parent, she could not imagine losing one at such a young age. She remembered the look of sadness that appeared on the little girl's face when her grandfather carried her out, Thanksgiving day. That day, even though it was sad, it was nice for everyone to come together. It was not only her that made an appearance, but also Travis' parents, Bailey, and of course, Dean's father. 

"Next time you see him, next shift, make sure you tell him whenever he is ready." 

Maya nodded, smiling as Carina fed her another strawberry. "That poor little girl, in the middle of a custody battle. I just hope his parents do let Ben and Bailey take care of her. From what I heard through Dean, he didn't like how they never supported him with being a firefighter." 

Taking another bite, the OBGYN smiled. She loved how compassionate her wife was. She knew in front of the others, she was a hardass, but at the same time, she was a softie. A side people hardly see. Deep in thought, she thought back to Thanksgiving day, heading towards the lounge and laughing at the sight of Maya not knowing what to do with little Pru, who just had a huge explosion in her diaper. It was the first time she ever heard that her wife had never taken care of a child before so it definitely made sense with how awkward she was. 

Glancing at Carina, Maya smiled softly. "What are you thinking about?"

The Italian put a strawberry in her mouth, smiling. "Honestly, seeing how awkward you were with Pru, and you mentioning that you never babysat friends' kids, makes sense."

The blonde nodded until a memory popped up in her mind. "Actually, there was a baby that turned up at the station. No parents, but we took turns. This was during the time Sullivan was captain." She said, starting her story of the baby boy. "I held him and basically took him on a tour of the station." Maya laughed, which caused Carina to do the same, imagining her wife doing just that. "Then when he was about to leave with the social worker, I stopped them to give him a little toy and shook his hand. Ben and Sullivan were nearby." 

Another giggle escaped her lips as Carina fed Maya another strawberry. "That would have been funny to watch, seeing Ben and Sullivan's face."

As time passed, the two shared conversations while continuing to eat the strawberries. It was then, the OBGYN said something that she knew the blonde would have said, causing Maya to be in denial.

"You said that."

"I did not say that," She said as she stood up to retrieve the bottle of chocolate sauce.

"You did!" Carina continued before grabbing the strawberry with a fork. "And you did it that Maya way."

The blonde looked confused. "The Maya way? What way is that?" 

"The way you get, mm, when things are not in order." She answered before placing the plate of strawberries on the table. "You get all stiff like you're trying to control every muscle in your body."

A look appeared as she tried to imitate her wife. "What? I make that face?"

"Oh, yes. The face is the best part." She started while making the face again to prove her point as Maya closed the fridge. "I'm Maya Bishop."

Maya gave in. "Oh my god," The firefighter said as she sat down while the Italian chuckled. "I'm gonna be the strict mom, aren't I?"

Carina laughed softly, "Yeah," she answered as she nodded before the room fell silent, the two glancing at each other lovingly. "You know, I spent my whole adult life bringing babies into the world, and then watching them get rolled away." The doctor admitted as Maya listened intently, wanting to hear what her wife has to say. "I never get to see how they turn out or, or what kind of mothers my patients will be. I just, I just, welcome little one. Bye-bye, have a nice life." It was then the lieutenant realized what she was saying.

"You want to be the one who carries?" Maya asked, looking at Carina.

The Italian was taken aback, before shaking her head. "Eh, we can talk about that. I know you're an athlete and you might want to experience."

Maya continuing to listen, shook her head, stopping the Italian. "No, it's you."

Carina was surprised, to say the least as she continued to talk.

"And for the egg, we can do IVF,"

"Nope, it should be yours." Maya stopped her from continuing as she stood up, to be face to face with Carina. "I want to hold a little you." She started, "I want them to have these eyes, and this nose, and this freckle." She continued, by touching her nose that caused a giggle from the brunette. "I want to have another version of you that I can count my blessings on."

The OBGYN's lip quivered as it looked like she was about to cry. She cupped Maya's face before placing a kiss on her lips. This moment made her fall in love with the blonde even more. 

"And I, have some ideas of some places," Carina said bringing up the bottle of chocolate sauce. "To put this chocolate sauce."

"I told you, we're making porn." 

"No, Maya, no." She responded as she realized it. "Uh, a little bit."

A/N: Dun dun dun... haha just kidding. One more chapter to go. Which the smut will be back as it is a continuation of this chapter and then it will finish with that last scene. 

As for the episode, I didn't have a chance to see it in full, thanks to my live stream not working until the last fifteen minutes. I will watch it on Hulu. Danielle's takeover was fun. I loved the Ford content we got, "Tell me you're a fan of Station 19 without telling me" reel and that little story of her, Stefania, and Boris. That bit was funny. Although we didn't get a live with Stefania or Caterina, I do love that she had done one with Jock who played Terrence, Peter Paige, and Zavier Sinnett. One thing I did not like is the fact that fans comment about Stef and saying inappropiate things. Where is the respect? 

Anyway, I shall be updating this in a few days. Hope you all like this chapter.
