Let me touch you

14 Surprise !

"Why did she faint!" Thor shouts.

"Thor! Calm down" Steve shouts back.

"Look, my best guess is the shock and more than likely the baby's rapid growth, her body hasn't had time to adjust like it would with a human child" Bruce tries to explain.

"And what does that mean for Charlie?" Thor's voice cracks.

"Honestly, I don't know" Bruce says quietly.

"Well, what do we know? Let's start there and make a plan" Steve does not want to loose his friend.

"Okay, well gestation wise she six weeks, her body is doing six weeks of catch up. She'll be drained, under fed and probably very cranky when she wakes up" Bruce explains.

"Okay, so an easy first. Food and lots of it. Bed rest and get the girls, she'll want to talk to them" Steve is hustling to the lift for the food.

"Thor you stay here, she'll want you when she wakes up" Thor nods, never taking his eyes from her.

Worry fills Thor's mind, his child would suck the life out of her human body. He grips her hand willing her to wake up, she groans and tries to sit up but he pushes her back down.

"Angel, you are safe" you turn to look at Thor's worried blue eyes.

"What happened?" she groans and flops back.

"You fainted" you nod and look around the room.

Bruce comes back with a smile, he pats your arm and sits with a sigh.

"I've ordered some new equipment, I have nothing for pregnancy and I'm not actually trained for this so if you wouldn't mind I'd like to call someone in to help?" you nod and chew your lip.

"I have a friend who is a maternity doctor, she's private so can stay here and help you through it all. I would feel more comfortable if she was here due to the speed of the situation" you frown, the situation.

"Okay, yeah it's fine. Um, can I get up now?" you ask quietly and Bruce nods, looking at Thor to help you.

"You need to take it easy, I'm serious Angel. Your body is going through something it's not prepared for. Your hormones will be all over so please don't stress yourself out. Thor you can take her to her room" Thor picks you up and carries you to the lift.

Once inside he squeezes you, pressing his face into your hair. He loved you so much already and now you were to be a family. But he had to take care of you first.

"Angel I'm so sorry, I can't tell you enough" you hold your hand up to his lips.

"Thor, please don't. I know this isn't normal but I'm happy even as I am a little scared. But it's not your fault, and we need to discuss what's going to happen when this kid comes" he kisses your fingers gently.

The doors open and he heads straight for your room, he lays you on the bed and informs friday to let Steve know where you are. You raise a brow questioningly.

"Bruce said you would need to eat a lot for your body to keep up" he sits beside you and holds your hand.

You were already a month and a half along by asgardian standards, but you didn't have a clue about babies. Five months is how long you and Thor had to learn.

"Will it be a god?" it suddenly occurs to you that it might be.

"A demi-god, of what though I'm not sure. Until the child's powers manifest we won't know" powers, Thor had just said powers.

Steve bursts through the door, his arms full of food. He drops things on the way to the bed making you laugh, he smiles, happy to see you in a good mood.
