"Yeah?" Jared asked, craning his neck to look at Myia's face. "Well hopefully he'll settle into some sort of routine now we're together." He took hold of her hand and pressed his lips against them, his warm breath against her skin. In all honesty, he couldn't remember what it was like to not know Myia. He remembered not knowing her, but not the feeling. Every night while he was away, he dreamt of his family, but on some nights he'd dream of the times before Jace came along. It was simpler then, but he wouldn't go back.
"You decorated?" Jared asked, looking around the living room. The walls used to just be white from when he'd helped to build the house, but now they were a pale blue and there were more little accents around the room: a vase of flowers, photo frames, just the little things that make a house feel more like a home.

Myia smiled up at her husband lovingly, watching as he raised her hand up to his lips and gently kissed her skin. She felt the small, intimate, gesture down through her very bones. It was such a small thing but still she felt a thrill run through her. "Yeah, I'm sure everything will calm down now. Now that we are all back together again and he has his father and I have my husband."
She looked around with a smile, she'd forgotten that he hadn't seen the house after she'd decorated. It'd been something to do and she hated the bare walls and sterile look. She wanted her home to look lived in, like her family home always had. She'd put in a bookshelf and filled it with dusty old books she loved, Jace's bedtimes stories, and books from Jared's old home. What they'd been able to save from the fire.
"Oh.. Yeah, I did. I hope you like it?" She said, turning to look at him with a hopeful expression, biting her lip gently.

"Of course I do." Jared's voice was soft and every now and then he would glance away from Myia and towards Jace. No matter how much he tried, he just couldn't believe how much he'd grown in the past three months. And though it scared him that it wouldn't be long until he was moving around and starting to talk, Jared couldn't wait to see who Jace would turn into. He had quite soft facial expressions and features, so the natural assumption would be that he would be calm like they were, but everybody loved a good surprise.
Jared looked back at Myia and smiled even if she couldn't see him. He was unbelievably happy to be back.

Myia smiled and leaned up to kiss him lightly, lovingly. She couldn't even express how much she loved him. How much she missed him. She was beyond happy that he was back with her, even though the circumstances weren't the best. She wished more than anything that he was healthy but as long as he was safe, he was here with her, she didn't care what the situation was. "I'm glad you like it."
She took a moment and chewed on her lip, debating if she should tell him the news she'd found out. Jared always knew Myia wanted a big family but after the trauma of Jace's birth, she knew Jared almost didn't want to try for anymore kids.
"I have something to tell you too.."

Jared watched as Myia began to chew on her lip nervously. He could never tell whether she did it subconsciously or whether actually meant to do it. Nevertheless, he found it adorable. When she said she had something to tell him, he didn't think much of it, just looking at her as she looked up at him.
"Go ahead," He said, pushing hair from her forehead. "You're not going to tell me you're pregnant again, are you?" He joked, a quiet laugh escaping. Deep down, Jared did want more kids and he definitely knew that Myia did, but if it was to end up even similar to what happened at Jace's birth, he didn't know what he'd do. He was sure it wouldn't be that, though. It couldn't be.

Myia took in a slow breath, her features falling slightly at his comment and his chuckle. That was exactly what she was going to tell him... Now, she wasn't so sure how to say it, how to get the words out of her mouth. She laughed softly and gave him a slight smile, "Uhm.. Yeah..." She shook her head again.
"Well, you see, I am... A week past three months now..." She said softly, biting her lip nervously as she looked up at him.

Well, shit. He wasn't expecting that, he only said that as a joke and now he'd probably upset her. The first thing Jared did instinctively was grab Myia's hand. He took hold of it and laced his fingers with hers. He didn't know whether to be more surprised than he was the first time she'd told him.
"Right..." Realising he had to say something, Jared tried to form a sentence but one word was the best she was going to get. He counted back how long it had been since he left. It worked out that she must have gotten pregnant just before he left. Now he felt bad, almost like he'd deserted her. And if he hadn't got shot, hadn't left the fight early, who knows how long he would have been in Four. He could have come back a year later and be completely surprised.
"When did you find out?" He asked, biting on his lip now, too.

Myia clutched to his hand, squeezing it gently, nervously. It was too late to go back now. She had found out about a month ago and she'd tried to send him a letter but she doubted he ever got it. She contemplated going to see him in Four but she couldn't risk going with Jace especially while she was pregnant. So she'd hoped and waited for him to come back.
"About a month ago. I was so busy with Jace and the house, I almost didn't notice. I tried to send you a letter even though I knew you wouldn't get it. I didn't know what else to do." She sighed anxiously, glancing down and away from him.

Jared let out a long breath and caught a glimpse of Myia's reaction to his question. He wrapped his arm around her and held her against him, almost protectively. Whispering, he leant his head closer to hers.
"Don't worry. It's not your fault, I'm not angry." His voice was soft now, he could tell she was distressed about the whole thing, too. He was determined to be strong for her, even if something bad happened again. "We can do it... Hopefully." He added the last word on as a joke. And it was a joke. Jared knew that together, he and Myia could do just about anything. And if other people could raise more than one child after a traumatic experience, why couldn't they? It would be hard, but they'd get through it together, just like they always did.

Myia curled into him, letting his strong arms wrap around her slender body. She pressed closed to him and then looked up at him, pressing a gentle kiss to his cheek. She wasn't afraid of anything, not a single thing, except Jared's reaction. She knew they could handle another kid and she was sure that this one's birth would be nothing like Jace's. She knew that statistically it was highly unlikely she'd have another birth like that. What happened was very rare.
"I know that we can do this.. I was just worried what you would say.. I know what happened with Jace, I know you are worried it'll happen again. So I was just worried you'd be upset... But it won't happen again. We'll be fine."

"Sorry." He said it automatically. Jared hated the fact that it wa his reaction she was scared of, even if she meant because he was scared of what happened last time. Nodding at what she was saying, he gave her hand a gentle squeeze and rubbed her back gently in circles with the other. A shaky breath left his lips, but he smiled anyway. Was he scared? Hell yeah. Did he think they could do it? Yeah.
"He'll be one." Jared said, looking over at Jace who was now awake, but quiet and playing with one of the toys attached to the swing with his hands. It was crazy to think that he was growing up so fast, especially since he'd missed three months of it. "Goodbye to any chance of a simple life." He joked.

Myia gazed up at his handsome face, feeling a bit sorry for him. He'd only just gotten home and hadn't even really settled in before she was dropping a bomb on him like they were going to have another kid. She cupped his cheek gently and leaned up to kiss him softly.
"Don't apologize love." She said softly and smiled at him lovingly before she followed his gaze to Jace who was just cooing happily in his swing. She leaned her head against his shoulder, still smiling at the baby. "He's such a good baby. Yeah, he'll be a little over one, couple months." She laughed again at his joke. "Who needs simple right?"
"I have an appointment in Thirteen. I've been going there for all my appointments. The hospital here still isn't complete."

Jared smiled while he listened to her speak, tapping his fingers gently on her back. "Then I'm coming with you for the next ones." He said, lazily looking over at her. Although he knew she'd want him to stay in Seven and rest his leg, he hoped she'd find a little comfort in knowing that he was there with her. And to be quite honest, he couldn't even stand to think of staying there while she left. "Isn't there anywhere... Closer than Thirteen? Maybe Five or Six?" He suggested, raising an eyebrow. It would be weird to even imagine having the possibility of going with her and not taking it. It was a no-brainer.

Myia chewed on her lip as she looked up at him, debating if he should come or not. She wanted him to be there and she knew he wanted to be there even though they both knew he needed to rest his leg. Still, she didn't think it was right to not let him come. And it'd be easier to have him there so he could watch Jace.
"Okay, love... We can check out Six's and Five's hospitals but if they aren't up to my standards, I'm going to go Thirteen still.." She said, smiling up at him. She had to trust the people she was putting her life and their child's life in the hands of. The doctors at Thirteen were close friends. She knew they would do anything for her and Jared. The hospital there was familiar, a place she recognized and felt safe.

"You doctors and your extremely high standards." Jared teased, leaning down to kiss her with a smile. "It's a good job I fit the bill." He teased again but then relaxed. Jared shook his head and squeezed her hand again. "If you feel more comfortable in Thirteen, we'll go. Forget the rest." Just from the look on her face he could tell she wasn't comfortable with the idea, and he should have known it really. He forgot that the nurses and doctors in Thirteen were the ones Myia had worked with for a long time and they'd been friends as well as colleagues.
