Chapter Title: "Finally"

Ship: Tord x Mona

Warning(s): [N/A]

______________________________________________________________

    23 year old Mona was in the bathroom, tapping her foot nervously as she sat on the side of the bathtub. The small pregnancy test on the counter wasn't easing her anxiety. In fact, it was the cause of it. She is married to the fearless Red Leader Tord Theodorsen and has been since she was 18. For the past five years, her and her husband have tried countless times to conceive...but to no avail. Tord always told Mona not to worry and that they can always try again, but the thought of not being about to provide her husband with a child ate at her mind. Tord wasn't getting any younger, and the fact he was a heavily targeted leader didn't help either. The two discussed adoption a few times in their marriage, but the conversation always ended with Mona saying she wanted at least one child that was their own. The shrill beeps pull Mona from her thoughts and she hurries to the counter where the test lays. Before she looks, she closes her eyes and lifts the test up. Taking a deep breath, she slowly opens her eyes...

   Mona skids to a stop in front of Tord's office, rushing inside. Tord, Pat, and Pau look over at the breathless woman in confusion. "Guys...can me and Tord have a moment alone?" She asks, and the two men nod to their leader before exiting the large office. Mona closes the door as Tord stands. "Mona? Min kjærlighet, what's going on?" He asks, voice laced with worry. Mona hurries to him, still a bit out of breath. "Close your eyes and hold out your hands." She says, Tord doing so (but still extremely confused). He feels Mona place a small item in his hands before speaking. "Now open them." Tord opens his eyes and looks at the item placed in his awaiting hands: a positive pregnancy test. He didn't speak for a moment, still recoiling from the news his wife brought him. "...Are you sure it's—" "I took two more after the first one...I'm pregnant!" Mona squeals, a large grin on her face. Tord shares an equally large grin, sitting the test on his desk before lifting Mona in the air. "I'm going to be a father!" He cries, spinning the young woman around in circles. Mona holds onto him and laughs. They share a small kiss before Tord sets Mona down.

    Pat and Pau had led the blindfolded Mona down the corridor to the mess hall about five months after she told the news to her husband. She had a bit of a baby bump, which she was currently resting her hands on. "Guys, seriously, where are you taking me?" She asks, now trying to pull off the blindfold. Pau gently swats her hands away from it. "Sorry Mona, but that's classified. Direct orders were to take you to where we need to go and make sure you don't remove the blindfold." Pat hums, smiling at Pau as they walk. Mona groans and once again tries to remove the cloth covering her eyes. Pat was the one to swat at her hands this time. "C'mon guys, I don't like not seeing where I'm going. Don't make me puke on you." The duo chuckle before Mona hears two large doors opening. "Alright you two, you can take it off now." A thick Norwegian voice says and Mona feels the blindfold get removed. She gasps as she looks at the decorated mess hall. Various pink and white streamers line the ceiling and there were matching balloons tied to most of the tables. Many of Tord's soldiers (mostly female ones) were attending, cheering as they spot Mona. There was a table off in the corner, lined to the brim with a large assortment of presents. "What...is all this...?" Mona whispers as Tord comes to greet her. "A baby shower!" He coos, kissing her cheeks. "Once my soldiers got word, they all pitched in and got you some things for our little growing blessing!" Tord kisses Mona once before before kneeling down and kissing her stomach. "Min liten kanin. I can't wait for you to get here..."

   Since then, four years have passed. Mona carries her small daughter down the large corridors of the Red Army base. The young girl had long caramel colored hair (along with the matching hair horns), pale freckled skin, and sky blue eyes. Mona smiles down at her, having pulled her long hair into two cute ponytails. Arriving at Tord's office door, she knocks. "Enter." Mona enters the office, smiling. "Pappa!" The girl cries, jumping from her mother's arms and running to Tord. "Karoline, min liten kanin!" Tord coos, lifting his daughter in the air and kissing her cheeks. Mona watches from the doorway, a small smile on her face. Tord notices her, motioning her over. "Hello my lovely wife." He hums, kissing Mona softly. After pulling away, Mona watches Tord talk and play with Karoline and smiles.
