She’d been keeping it from him, but Sam knew tomorrow was his fiance’s birthday. Or, the day that had been decided as her birthday. He was supposed to be out hunting for another few days at the earliest. At the very least, she wouldn’t expect him back for a week. Creeping into the house, he silently dropped his bag to the kitchen floor, checking in on his daughter a moment before slipping back the hall to the bedroom he and his fiance shared.
Smiling as he took in her sleeping form on the bed, he crossed and toed off his shoes, sliding into bed behind her, hand sliding to cover her ever-growing baby bump, nosing at her neck softly. He felt her breathing shift and change as she woke and he glanced up, the clock numbers just turning to midnight, and he smiled softly and kissed her soft, milky skin.
“Happy birthday, my darling babydoll.”
-Closes her eyes and presses her lips together- I just…I don’t know what to do anymore…
-sighs softly and kisses her lips gently- I’ll stop going. I shouldn’t be leaving you here alone with Ari anyway.
-Pushes at his chest and sniffs lightly- No, don’t worry about me. I’m fine..
-sighs softly- No you’re not. I can see right through that, Asirai. You’re not fine. And I’m an asshole. Go ahead. Call me an asshole.
-Shakes her head and buries her face in his chest- Nothing.
-tilts her face up and kisses her- Baby. Come on. Tell me.
-Closes her eyes and presses her lips together- I just…I don’t know what to do anymore…
-sighs softly and kisses her lips gently- I’ll stop going. I shouldn’t be leaving you here alone with Ari anyway.
-Lifts her head to look at him, chin trembling softly- I missed you too…
-brows furrow- Baby, what’s wrong?
-Shakes her head and buries her face in his chest- Nothing.
-tilts her face up and kisses her- Baby. Come on. Tell me.
-Sighs softly and presses her face to his chest, her wings curling slightly around him- Good..
-smiles and kisses her forehead- I missed you baby.
-Lifts her head to look at him, chin trembling softly- I missed you too…
-brows furrow- Baby, what’s wrong?
