After our next mission I decided it was time to tell my mother about the baby and since she had only met Goose once at the wedding, he would need to come. We walked down the hall and Goose said
"When are we going to tell you mom about the baby?" Perfect timing I thought
"About that, can we go and visit her? Tomorrow?"
"Uh ok sure!" Goose replied looking worried
"Don't be worried she can hardly kill you, I mean she can't even work out how to turn a TV on" we both laughed but I could tell he was nervous, so on the way I stopped to buy some Cadbury chocolate, when I got in the car he asked
"Is that Cadbury? You got chocolate?!" Then hugged me, mission accomplished I thought. When we arrived at my mom's house Goose parked the car and I suddenly felt a wave of anxiety blast through me, it suddenly hit me that I hadn't seen my mother since me and Goose's wedding 2 years ago and me and my mother had never had a great relationship ever since I joined topgun, especially when I married a pilot.
"Are you ok Hun? You seem a little nervous?" Goose said looking at me
"I'm ok"
"Are you sure?"
"It's just...what if she isn't happy about it, I can't risk loosing another family member"
"I'm sure she won't and if she does I'm here for you, me and Maverick will always be your family"
"Thank you Nick" I hugged him
"Just doing my job" he offered me his hand "ready m'lady?"
I laughed, atleast I had Goose.

We walked to the door and rang the doorbell, as soon as the door swung open my mother said "hello Alissa and Nicholas"
"Hello mother"
"Hello"
"Come in" my mother said coldly. We sat at the glass coffee table, I looked around at my childhood home and noticed it had changed so much it was so modern and I couldn't see a picture of my father anywhere, she'd just forgotten him.
"Any reason you two are here?" My mother didn't even look at us
"Yes miss we have some news we think you might want to know" Goose said looking nervous
"What?"
"I'm pregnant" I said, my mother's expression changed from a cold frown to an angry scowl, she stood up so violently the glass shook
"I don't want another child with some of your pathetic father's blood!"
"Mom.." I said trying to find some words, Goose held my hand and I looked at him with tears about to form,
"leave now." She said
"We will, miss maybe try and be supportive to your only daughter" goose looked angry whilst trying to comfort my tears. In the car I just cried, Goose hugged me and said comforting words, but nothing would clear the sadness I had. I was partly angry and partly sad because number one, she completely offended my late father and number two she was disappointed in me for getting pregnant when I was an adult.
