A Different Life (Golden Guard x !Autistic! Reader)

Chapter 18

Hunter's POV:

It's been 3 months, and despite how positively Mipha reacted to her pregnancy, her feelings have changed due to the hormones pumping through her body and mind. She won't move off the couch, she doesn't sleep in bed with me, she's barely scraping by. Her body has betrayed her, and right now she just doesn't want to believe she's pregnant.
If anyone tries to bring it up, she just gets upset.
I know she loves this baby, but after what she went through... Her mind and body aren't what they were before, and she doesn't know what to do.

I came downstairs, I had taken the week off to try and get Mipha into better shape mentally, but nothing I've done has worked. Willow's coming over to try, and I'm just praying we can at least get her out of the house. She goes to the bathroom, and gets water and snacks from the kitchen, but other than that she hasn't left the couch. Celeste isn't doing too hot either because of all this, she wants Mipha to get better, but since she hasn't it's taken a toll on the snowy Owl.
There was a knock at the door, which didn't faze my fiance, who was laying on her side staring at the TV. I sighed, walking behind her and gently sliding my fingers on her cheek, gaining a hum from her as I opened the door and a very worried Willow entered.

"Hey, she hasn't moved" I sighed, Willow nodding and putting her backpack on one of the coat hooks. Mipha waved, this being the most she's done in a while.
"You tried forcing her outside?" I shook my head, hearing her hum in response. Willow went upstairs, I heard her rummaging around before she came downstairs with some clothes in her hands. Mipha's blue tunic and her pink leggings that both had the orange accents. 

"She's was held in confinment for so long, going outside might not be an option in her brain anymore, so as much as this is gonna hurt us all, we gotta force her outside. First things first, Clover and I will get her dressed" Willow puffed up her chest and marched to Mipha, plopping the clothes onto the chair before sitting on the floor in front of her face.

"Hi Willow..." she muttered, her voice hoarse from all the crying she's done. 
"Come on, lets get you dressed" Mipha shook her head before Willow gently sat her up and lifted her shirt off. Willow then removed her chest wrap and then gently helped her put a bra on. Mipha started sniffling, this being the most she's let anyone touch her. Clover was cheering Celeste up before the two palisman started working on Mipha's hair, tying it into a low ponytail so it was out of her face. I couldn't help but smile, she was gonna be ok, should've known Willow would be the answer.

She got Mipha to her feet, wiping her tears and putting her glasses on.
"Come on, a day for the two of us!" Willow smiled, holding Mipha's hands.
"No... No we can't go outside..." she whispered, not realising Willow had managed to snake her boots on and slowly lead her to the open door. I tailed them, making sure Mipha would run back to the couch. To our surprise, she didn't. We all got outside, Celeste flying off and loving the sunshine, while Mipha looked to the ground. 

"It hurts..." she placed a hand on her stomach, Willow frowning and giving Mipha a gentle hug. I circled her, offering my hand to her. She took it, leaning on me as I held her and kissed her head.
"Viney's been coming to check on her, so the baby is fine, but Mipha herself isn't... which is obvious... Do what you think woul help her best" I pleaded, Willow nodding and mounting her staff.

"Meephs... Sunshine, please try... You don't need to be who you were before, but you can't stay like this, it's only hurting you" she nodded against my chest, muttering that she would try before I let her go and she mounted Celeste. I watched them both fly off before sighing and closing the door, going to clean up the couch and refresh everything so Mipha would be comfortable when she returned.

Mipha's POV:

I breathed slowly, my body was aching, I felt nauseous, but also I didn't at the same time. My head was pounding, my eyes wouldn't stop watering. My chest felt hard, and sore, my stomach was hurting from the stretching. I had horrible cramps, because of the state Mela left me in I lost a lot of weight, so now my 3 month belly looked probably 6 months to everyone around me.
I've done nothing to change my weight. I know I said I wanted this baby, and I still do but... I can't be pregnant... it's not Hunter's, Titan only knows whose baby this is.
I've struggled to not hurt myself, life doesn't feel worth living for some reason.
