Maya's POV

"Lucas come see this!" I yelled from my studio. He came running through.

"What, what is everything ok?" He said trying not to pant and acting like he too wasn't worried.

"Yeah, look they just set lots of lanterns off, don't they look great. A relief covered his face and he rubbed my back

"Yes, there beautiful, just like you."

"Your being overly nice Huckleberry." Trying to hide the smile that was growing on my face.

"That's me, I'm Going out I'll be back in a little while, do you want me to pick you up anything? Got any cravings?" He asked.

"Why are you going out again, it's 7 O'Clock, I kept you some dinner." He continued to walk to the door.

"No I'm not hungry, I've got things to do I'll see you later, love you, bye!" And the door slammed behind him.

Why was he leaving again? It was our night together, this was the eighth time he'd done this in the last week.
I didn't want to wonder why he would be doing this because I did trust him but the question kept circling back in my mind. Was there someone else?

The next night he done it again and that's when I went over the edge, I started to cry while watching a film that wasn't even sad. I couldn't tell if it was because i was pregnant or if I was worried.

I rang him just to make sure everything was ok

"Hellooo" a familiar woman's voice answered it sounded like Danielle from down the street. But she was married, I didn't know what to think, her of all people, it couldn't be. He was my one person, I couldn't start again without him but if i was right, it seemed like I was going to gave to.

The next day I waited and waited in the lounge, I watch the front door for about 45 minutes. I thought I could hear some rustling in my study so I walked towards the kitchen to find Lucas eating a PB&J sandwich he must of come through the back door, I went to shout

"Get.."

"Wait don't say anything I have something to show you." He said stopping me from yelling at him. He then opened my study door and inside was a big canvas, it was a picture of a squiggled pregnant woman and I realized it was me, I was angry but it still somehow made my heart melt into liquid, he had a way of making me feel so safe without even trying.

"I've been working on it for weeks, ive been having lessons from Danielle down the street, do you like it hunny?" He asked.

"So that's why a woman answered your phone?" I felt so relieved.

"What! Did you..think" He burst out with laughter

"You thought I was cheating on you with Danielle who is a middle aged, happily married woman with 7 kids." He continued to laugh but tears started to rolled down my face

"Oh no, clutterbucket don't cry, I was only joking, I just couldn't believe you would think I would cheat on you, I love you too much to do that."

"No its nothing to do with that, I just... it's so sweet that you did this, I mean, its the worst drawing I've ever seen" I sobbed with laughter erupting and he laughed with me.

"But, you did all this for me, you know I love you, Bucky." He took my hand leading me back towards the lounge

I love you too, Mrs Friar." He replied. I continued to laugh down the hallway

"What are you laughing at now?" He asked starting to giggle.

"Its just such an ugly painting, where the hell am I gonna put it." All you could hear down the hallway was me laughing.

"Hey that took me like three weeks." He said defending himself while trying not cackle, while my laughter just even louder.
