Prompt: Not Requested. Imagine being pregnant with Frank's baby and talking to Lynz about it.
Pairing: Frank x Reader
You bang on the front door, hoping beyond reason that she'll hear you despite the fact that it's past 3am. She opens it dressed in one of Gerard's band tees and loose pajama bottoms. She lets you in without even asking, always there for you despite the fact that she needs sleep and you know you do too. She takes you into the kitchen and starts brewing coffee neither of you will remember to drink, but it makes the kitchen smell nice and welcoming and you relax in one of the wooden dining chairs.
"I know you have trouble sleeping but driving over here at 3am is a bit much," You would feel guilty but she's smiling and your stomach is already twisted in knots.
"I'm pregnant," You announce and her face lights up, only settling into a worried expression when you don't smile in return.
"Is this a good thing?"
"I don't know," You admit, "I want kids with Frank and I know he does too but isn't this too soon? We aren't married; we only just moved in together, it just seems like a bad idea." You drop your head into your hands, chest tight and Lindsey is on her feet in an instant.
She wraps her arms around you from behind, her chin on your shoulder and voice soft near your ear. She holds you and you relax into her, she's like a blanket of comfort and your heart rate slows when you breathe in her comforting body wash and feel her heart like a gentle beat against your back.
"Getting married has never matter to you two; as long as you're together you've always been happy."
"A kid will change that."
"True," she admits softly and you sigh. "But that doesn't have to mean something bad, it could make everything better."
"And if we break up?"
"You won't, I've never seen two people more in love," She pulls away with a teasing grin, "Well, besides Gee and I."
"You two were made for each other." You reply, smiling lovingly and Lindsey returns to her seat, nodding in agreement.
"As were you and Frank, but just because you're in love doesn't mean you aren't scared, doesn't mean you won't have doubts, you just have to believe that you'll overcome all of that." She takes your hand and you remain silent, not trusting your voice for fear you'll start to cry.
"Lynz," You start, voice watery and a smile lights up your face. "I'm gonna be a mom."
She grins in response and you're both on your feet and embracing each other at the next moment. You hold her tight and she does the same, both of you smiling and giggling in the middle of the kitchen at 4am with tears in your eyes. You're still scared, how can you not, but you love Frank and somehow that overshadows everything you were thinking when you knocked on that door.
"You should probably get home; tell your boyfriend what's going on." Lindsey says as she pulls away, holding you still and you nod. "He's gonna be so happy."
"Thank you," You lean up and kiss her cheek before stepping away and she walks you to the door. "I'll call you tomorrow at a decent hour." You laugh and she smiles, bright and beautiful and warm.
"Goodnight," She says and you return the sentiment, opening the door and smiling in goodbye.
You feel light as you walk back to your car, scared and unsure but in love and happy and hopeful. Frank cries when you tell him and you end up staying up all night again but this time in Frank arms laughing and talking about baby names. The worries and doubts fade away with each hospital visit and you completely forget you were ever scared when you're holding your baby with Frank asleep in a chair beside your bed.
