All To One (Matt Engarde x Pregnant! Reader)

Requested by AlishaMolloy

Your Pov:

I sat in the hotel room with Matt and Adrian. The convention award ceremony was going to start soon so Matt was getting ready. Adrian picked up her book and left the room. Matt stood in front of the vanity, sorting himself out, "How're you feeling babe? If you're tired, you don't have to come watch the ceremony." I shook my head, "No. It's alright. Your child is just a kicker." He laughed, "That is my son after all." I rolled my eyes.

"I think it's going to be a girl." After that, we headed out to the ceremony. I got into my seat next to Adrian and the ceremony started.

Time Skip...After the ceremony...

Matt won the award and the jamming ninja lost once again. I followed Adrian back to the hotel room and got into the bed. I was so sleepy. Matt came in soon after and got out of the costume. He yawned and laid down next to me, pulling me into his chest. His arms wrapped around my torso, resting on my stomach. Then, we fell asleep. Right before that though, I heard the room's door open and close.

Few hours later...

The door to the room slammed open. I sat up to see numerous officers searching our room for something. Just then, one of the officers presented something to one of the others before pointing to me. In under a minute, I was being cuffed and led out of the room. I spoke, "What's going on?" One of the officers spoke, "You're under arrest for the murder of Juan Corrida. You have the right to remain silent." We passed the room that belonged to Juan Corrida.

That's when I saw the familiar card on the ground. Shelly De Killer's calling card. My uncle's calling card.

The police took me to a detention center. I was put in a cell. After what felt like hours, a guard came and got me, saying that I had a visitor. I followed the guard to a visitation room. I sat down in the empty chair, examining the spiky haired man and dark haired girl. The man spoke, "We're here to help you, Ms...?" I spoke, "(Y/n) (L/n). Can you explain to me what is going on?" He then gave me the same explanation as the cops.

Apparently, Juan Corrida was murdered and they thought I did it. I shook my head, "Well I didn't do it. I went to the ceremony to support my boyfriend, Matt. Then, I went back to the hotel room I shared with Matt and we fell asleep together. When I woke up, I was arrested." The man spoke, "Well, I'm your attorney, Phoenix Wright. I don't want to offend, but are you pregnant?" I nodded, "Yes. I am." A little bit of my split personality seeped into my words, "You'll help this poor woman, won't you?"

Deep down, I knew what happened. Matt called my uncle for his services and I got the blame. Whether it was on purpose or on accident, I didn't know. The two of them left and I was taken back to my cell. I sat in my cell for a few days, Mr. Wright visiting me sometimes. After 3 days, it was time for my trial. I sat in the defendant lobby with Mr. Wright. He looked at me, "What's your relationship with Mr. Engarde like? He refused to speak with us." I sighed and looked at him.

"It's like we know that no matter how many knives we put in each other's backs, that we'll have each other's backs. Because we're that lucky." Mr. Wright stared at me, seemingly at a loss for words. I smirked, that other 'personailty' of mine taking over.

No One's Pov:

The spiky haired attorney could tell that something in the young woman had changed. The woman spoke in a sickly sweet tone, "You don't want a defenseless pregnant woman going to prison, do you? All alone and scared. If you fail, that is." The attorney stared in shock at the young woman's change of personality. The young girl continued, "So just get a not guilty verdict and no one will get hurt."

Court was then called into session. The trial proceeded smoothly. The only things new being the fact that someone had been spying on Corrida for two months before the murder. They tried to get testimony from Dr Killer himself through a walkie-talkie, but they failed. The girl scanned the gallery, spotting the brunette celebrity in the crowd. She turned back to the judge, wanting to hear the verdict.

30 minutes later, the judge banged his gavel and gave his verdict, "In the murder of Juan Corrida, I declare the defendant, Ms. (Y/n) (L/n), not guilty. However, Ms. Adrian Andrews will be tried in two weeks for tampering with a crime scene. Court adjourned." That's when the attorney realized it.

That girl...she was just like Matt Engarde. She knew everything. Every detail. But she disguised her knowledge by playing the role of a helpless and scared pregnant woman. For her, it worked in her favor. The attorney got little Pearl Fey back, but knew that he let a criminal...no two criminals, escape from the law.

To Your Pov:

I walked out of the courthouse with Matt. Once in the car, I looked at him, "You owe me. And my uncle does too. So when we get home, I'm burning the note and the tape. And then after that, we will never speak of this ever again." Matt nodded, "Fine. The more we can get rid of, the better."

I smirked, "Of course. I love you."

Matt looked towards the road.

"...I love you too."
