DIANA'S POV

@ 2 : 39 am 

"Bruce, are you up?" I asked, pushing the covers aside. I was having trouble sleeping which as explained by the doctor- was completely normal. I mean what does he know, he's a guy, he doesn't even get pregnant, let alone know the discomfort I was experiencing at the moment. 

Ugh the mood swings were killing me. 

"Are you all right?" Bruce got up immediately after hearing my voice. It was one of those things that I loved about him. He never got irritated or clumsy when I needed him or woke him up in the middle of the night.

"I can't sleep. I'm sorry but I just feel so weird and tensed." I replied trying to get up. Bruce pulled me up from one side and lay a pillow on the back so I could be more comfortable. I was getting heavier and heavier each day and every time I had to move I felt like I would flip over or be crushed by my own weight.

"I hate this, I freaking hate how fat I've become. Look at my fingers." I yell losing my calm. The range of emotions I was going through was not worth describing. I felt like crying but at the same time I was sick of feeling sorry for myself.  Does everyone go through this because I am so done with being pregnant.

"Honey, you're not fat. Look at me...." He continued pulling my chin up. "You are beautiful, more beautiful than before. You have no idea how much love I feel when I see the two of you." He said resting his hand on my belly that had grown so big these past months. His words made me smile like a fool, even though it was in the middle of the night, I couldn't help blushing. I was so lucky, to have someone love me so much.

"He's going to be okay right?" I asked.

"Of course he is. He got us. We're a pretty good team, don't you think?" Bruce asked with a smile. I could see his face, how tired he looked but he didn't care. He was up early and had to leave regarding a mission and was almost out for 12 hours. All this time when he's not around, I would just pray that he returns home safe and sound to me. I wouldn't be worried if I was with him but just staying here and waiting for him not knowing what's out there is pretty terrifying, even for me.

"Come on, I'll give you a foot rub. It'll ease your mind." Bruce said getting to the side where my legs were rested. His hands were magic, causing me to feel relaxed in a fraction of seconds.

"How's everyone at work?" I ask as he focuses all his attention towards giving me a delightful foot rub.

"They're all right. Clark is learning Spanish, it's kind of annoying. He's so proud of himself I can't even be around that person. Do you know he actually called me asshole in Spanish?" He asked, annoyed.

I laughed. Clark and Bruce always had their small childish battles. It was just a matter of who annoyed the other most.

"You can be nicer to him, you know that." I replied, causing him to give me a serious look.

"I'm nice." He muttered.

"You once left him sleeping at a chicken barn." I reminded.

"I didn't know he would get so drunk easily, what was I supposed to do?" Bruce asked trying to suppress his laughter.

"Point is you can be mean. What about others?" I asked.

"They're good. Barry is actually much quieter than before. Do you think it's cause of the baby thing?" He asked.

"I don't know? Maybe. He must feel bad knowing he came between the mess we had from a long time ago." I said with a sigh. I should feel bad, I know. In a way or so I betrayed Barry and his trust but look where I am now. This is where I am supposed to be, this is how things should be. Bruce and me, the two of us, our past, our chemistry just does not go away easily. I don't know why that is. Maybe it's because we balance each other in a good way? I don't know.

"We have no mess. You just decided to go for him. That's the last time you're ever going to date other people do you hear me?" Bruce sarcastically asked me. I found it funny and cute because of the tone in his voice.

"Are you threatening me Bruce Wayne?" I asked, laughing.

"Yes. I'm your guy. You date no other guys. Just me...is that clear?" He asked.

"Whatever."

"Don't whatever me, I need you to keep me a promise here. We're awake in the middle of the night, the least you can do is make a promise." He insisted playfully.

"Do I have to? I mean.....I'm still young like......." I replied, teasing him a bit. It was funny to see how annoyed he was.

"Sure, whatever you do, know that I can always make you pregnant again." Bruce said causing us to break in a fit of laughter. He was adorable.
