Summer Lovin' 16

~Simon POV~

The first month of summer has been incredible! We got through his first heats with no significant issues, I am also learning more every day about Merlin, his regressions, our relationship and how to be a better caregiver for him. I am also finding ways to open up to him about my life, family and responsibilities that will be expected of me and by proxy, him. We have gone on a few trips together, one was his request, Kyoto, and it was a beautiful week with him. The next trip was for my business, to Singapore, and I know he enjoyed the time, even when we were forced to be apart, as he spent most of his time at either the spa or the malls. What a spoiled little one, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Once we got home, I helped him familiarize himself with the rest of the house, which I also asked him to formally move into, and he accepted! He is helping me expand our library, redecorate some of the rooms and create a studio for him to study and design in. His choices so far have been elegant and beautiful, just like him, I find with the more I learn. 

He has also been sneaking in wedding research. I know he has been trying to hide it from me, which is so damn cute. I found his secret stash of magazines and clippings under our nest when I was cleaning up after another long night together. Then I found wedding dress fabric samples in his drawer, along with a onesie, but not one that would fit him. I didn't really think much of it, I just assumed he has baby fever, as we are engaged now. This morning however, I notice him acting strange. Clingy again, far more than usual, and he is warm, like physically hot. "Merlin, babe, are you feeling alright?" I ask as I wrap my arms around his waist, laying my hands on his little belly which has filled out nicely thanks to all the food and lazing around in bed. "I'm fine, Simon, just tired still. Last night was..." He shoots me a wink and smirk over his shoulder before unwrapping from my grasp and heading to start getting breakfast set up for us. He knows I have to be at the office soon for some meetings with our managers, in prep for my trip with them next week. The only one Merlin can't join me for. I sit at the table, and he serves me one of the few things he has mastered in the kitchen, fruit waffles with scrambled eggs. And when I say he has mastered it, I mean it, they are absolutely scrumptious, as is he. We both dig in and eat in happy silence, like most mornings. I offer him some coffee and he refuses, new for him but then I see he already has OJ, so yeah, that would be a nasty combination, so I dismiss it and finish quickly. I head for the door after kissing him deeply, "Please, let the staff handle the dishes." I nod to the woman cleaning off the table and she nods back to me with a smile. "I love you, Merlin. So much. I will see you this evening." I kiss him again and head for the lift.

As I see him wave to me before the lift closes, I clutch my stomach, holding off the inevitable for one more second; then as soon as the door closes, Liah, the woman from before, sets the can in front of me as I fall to my knees and throw up breakfast, as I have almost every morning for the past 8 days. Shit... I look up to her and she collects me into her arms, helping me to the bathroom like she always does. She runs the shower for me and goes to collect some clean clothes for the day as I shower off quickly, wrapping a towel around myself and awaiting her return. She leaves me a pair of sweatpants from Simon and a loose-fitting t-shirt. "You need to see that doctor, Young Master." She speaks with such care but command in her voice. "Please, call me Merlin... How many times must I ask?" I beg of her, still clutching my lower stomach. "Until you are ready to stop asking, Young Master." she chuckles and smiles at me as I dress and head for the main room again. I take my bag and phone and head for the lift, still clutching my stomach. I hope it's a flu or food poisoning, but I know better... 

I sit in the waiting room of the doctors, wringing my sweat soaked hands together, when I hear a woman call my name. I stand and sway a bit, feeling queasy again. She helps me into an exam room and gives me instructions for the urine and blood tests, along with the scheduled sonogram. For fucks sake... What the hell is going on... How did this happen? I rub my belly softly and apologize for the decision I have already made. Simon and I aren't ready for this, he just proposed... I can't finish college like this, I can't start my business, I would be giving up my life and risking our relationship. Two women step into the room and the appointment begins...
