I can't help falling in Love with you

Hey

Tim's pov:

° "What did you do?!" I saw Jason cradling Marinette's body. °
I shot up trying to catch my breath.
When I looked down Marinette sleeping next to me.
Her face showed a pained expression making every breath seemingly more painful than the last.
The pain meds must be wearing off. The colour had at least returned to her face a bit over the last three days.
She hadn't woke up since. Unlike me.
I kept waking up scared the her breathing stopped with out me noticing and when I did fell asleep I had nightmares of her screaming and crying bagging me to stop hurting her.
I wanted to hold her but I was afraid only touching her so I held her hand,creased her face and layed next to her hoping she'd finally wake up but I couldn't keep my eyes off her stomach.
She groaned pulling me out of my thoughts. Her eyes blinking open slowly. "Mari, h-hey". Her eyes started to focus.
"Hey how are you feeling?" I asked taking her hand.
"I've been better." She smiled. She looked down." Did you change my clothes?", "I-I did...I thought that..." my voice cracked , I  looked away and cleared my throat. "I thought that it would be uncomfortable with all the... blood and considering it's been three days.... ", "Three? " she asked. I nodded.
........
"What's wrong? Something's on your mind. You shaking like a leaf." She said brushing through my hair like she always used to. I didn't even realise I was shaking.
When she asked it was as if a dam broke. My eyes started to water and I bit my lower lip. Than a gutt wrenching sob escaped my mouth as I lowered myself next to her and buried my face in her shoulder. I felt my tears drenching her top as I kept crying.
"I'm sorry!* sob* Oho God I'm so sorry! *sob* I-I never apologised for *sob * a-nything.* cough* and I ke- I keep hurting you-u. *sob* ",
" Shh it's o-",
" No!*sob* No it's not ok-kay.*sob*. I hurt you.*snif*. God I'm so s-sorry.*sob* I couldn't protect you. I-I... "
"Shhhh. It's not your fault. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
"I s-st-st-stabed you ." I cried.
"You were infected. It was a mista....",
" Marinette! This-ss one w-would have cost me o-our future. I nearly killed it!"

Marinette's pov:

Killed our... future, was a wired way to frase it.
He just kept sobbing.
"I c-can't *sob*....I can't live without you* snif* either of you. Please please don't leave.*snif *. I'm sorry.
I'll do an-nything. But-t please don't go.. don't take this away from me. " He whispered.
Take what away the relationship? Who is the other one? I understood nothing.
"Tim what are you talking about? ". He took a shaky breath.
I grabbed him by the chin and pulled his face to mine. "What do you mean? "
"W-When we checked *snif * for organ damage we..we used ultrasound a-and..." I started realizing where this was headed.
"You mean I'm..".
He nodded and whispered. "I'm sorry for p-putting you through this."
He grabbed my wrist trying to pull it away from his face but I slammed my lips onto his. I could taste the salt of his tears in the corner of his lips.
His grip tightened on my shoulder and wrist as he let himself sink deeper into the kiss growing more passionate with every second that drew past.
Breaking away from the kiss I tried to catch my breath.
He was also gasping for air staring at me in shock . We were inches apart.
"Don't you ever apologise for this Tim. Do you know how many people want to have a child? This is not the ideal circumstance or how I would imagine it but I knew the risks that night. It takes two so it's not all on you."
I said still holding his face.
I pulled him in again then felt him sliding down and latching onto my throat with his mouth making me whine. "W-wait. Tim." I pulled my hand out of his hair and tried to push him away softly by the shoulder since he didn't let go of my other hand. He didn't budge. Grabbing my free hand with his he put both of my arms over my head and held them down with one hand.
He came back up too my face leaning his forehead against mine also taking desperate breaths.
"I can't."he huffed in a raspy voice as he hovered next to my right ear.
His free had cropped the back of my neck as our lips touched again. I pushed my chest up towards him instinctively.
Pain shot up the side of my body causing me to curl in and wince.
Tim let go emidietly. "Sorry I'm sorry. You told to me to w..mhp.", I put my hand on his mouth.
"It's Okay ." I laughed.
"I keep doing it."he said guilty.
I took his hand and slowly guided down and let it rest on my injury softly. "I trust you.". His eyes welled up with tears again and he layed down next to me again letting his hand rest on my side. He put his head on my chest and relaxed listening to my heartbeat.
A baby. A real baby.
"How are you not scared? " he asked quietly after a while.
"I am terrified. But I guess I'm more grateful.",
"You are incredible do you know that?",
I smiled "I mean parents...can you Imagine that?...what if we ..mess it up?" I whispered.
He lifted his head and scootched up so we were face to face.
"That's impossible. You're going to be the best mom a child could want. I mean the time we took care of Mar'i worked great... And besides we can always make another." He winked. I hit him in the chest.
"Just kidding." He laughed.
We sighed and looked at each other.
"Did you hit anything important? " I asked after a while brushing through his hair.
"No...I thankfully missed all the vital organs." He whispered guilty. I kissed him on the head.
Suddenly I gasped " The poison, the antidote ,all those meds! Tim the baby..!",
"Is completely fine. We did a bunch of check ups and tests the results were normal and we switched up all the meds as soon as we found out." He answered.
"Our baby is fine. I guess she is just as stubborn as her mom.". "She? How do you know it's a she." I asked. He shruged," I'm just hopeing i guess.". He moved to kiss me but... "Good morning," Dick whispered a bit to eager with Mar'i on his arm and Jason behind him. "What is up with their timing? " Tim groaned. I giggled and emidietly regretted it wincing in pain.

"It's fine" I reassured him noticing his gaze.

Jason's pov:

She was finally awake.
"Hey there nugget." I greeted her as I reached her bed. " Captain. " she teased. She looked exhausted. Not as bad as the past few days but also not great. I grabbed her hand and squeezed it softly.
"Papa do we still have to whisper? " Mar'i asked whispering. "No sweetie Marinette is awake so it's fine." Dick laughed. "How long are you guys up? " I asked sitting down on her bedside. "About 10 minutes. "Tim guessed.
Mar'i started squirming wanting to go to Marinette. Tim took her instead and sat her on his lap.
"We have to be a bit more careful with Marinette right now alright shorty? She won't be able to pick you up for a while." He said.
"Why?" She asked looking down at Marinette."Well I got... a bit hurt.","How?".
Marinette and Tim glanced at each other quickly before looking away and thinking. Something was up.
"I don't think that it's something appropriate for you age." Tim said. "What's apopoiat?", "You don't get to know."
"That's no fair."," I'll tell you when you're older. ",
"You Pommes ?", "Yes I pinky Pommes." Tim answered. Marinette to snorted then winced and gripped tighter onto my hand. Dick saw me look.
"Mar'i do you want to get them some breakfast?" He asked taking his daughter back as she nodded.
"Alright we'll be back soon."  He smiled walking back to the door.
"Marinette can I..?" I pointed at her wound. "Yeah. " she said and pushed the blanket away. Tim helped her slowly pushing up the shirt.
"That's good. The black veins are almost gone." I said slowly and softly touching around the patch that was taped over her wound.
"Maby we should check up one more time on the..." I froze not wanting to spill the news if she didn't know yet.
I looked at Tim. "It's okay. She knows." He smiled kissing Marinette's head.
She nodded and also smiled. I got up and gave her a big careful hug. "I call dibs on cool uncle and godfather." I said leaving no room for arguments.
