Rated: T for suggestive themes

So this is my second story, takes place after the events of ME3, it will be mostly AU, and wont be closely tied to the story, just part and pieces that would need to be there for the story.

Liara and Femshep make my day.

With that said, hope you enjoy it and any thoughts are welcome :)

Little blue babies.
She had promised me that.
Goddess did she mean it?

Liara was anything but calm, how is she going to tell Shepard that she is with child while the Reapers have just been defeated, goddess she's still in the hospital recovering.

"Dr. are you sure?" Liara pleaded

"I have seen people die and people live, dear I know life when I see it." The doctor laughed but her expression changed.

"Liara what is wrong?"

Her eyes were tracing Liara as she paced back and forth

"This was not planned Karin, it was the hours before the final fight, we.. I must have let the meld go too deep." Liara explained her hand reaching forehead, sitting down in defeat.

"Do you love her?" Karin asked.

"Of course I do!" The asari replied looking down on the floor.

"And she loves you. Correct?"

"Goddess beyond that and more."

"And the child you are carrying was conceived because somewhere in the midst of your minds you both agreed and thought the same, yes?"

"Well- I.. Yes.."

"Then there is nothing to be scared of." She placed her hand on Liara's knee.

"But she is still recovering and this is life changing." She said looking up to face the doctor

"The comm- admiral has just come back from her second near death experience. She needs something to take her mind off things. Something happy. Like new life" Karin let a smile ease the tension.

"How do I tell her?"

"You will find the moment Liara. You will find it."

*Huerta Memorial Hospital*

"Miranda my brain is fine. I think you've done enough tests" Shepard said getting up to reach a glass of water.

"You can't blame me for being thorough. It is my job with you just so you know, for future reference." She replied mocking.

"Alright operative Lawson I get it."

The admiral laughed then winced at a pain in her leg, Miranda quickly jolted up and did some scans.

"Hmm. A short walk should help, are you okay with that Jane?"

"Anything to get out of this room? Hell yes a walk would be great!" Shepard said as she limped.

"Here let me help you" Miranda came over and looped there arms together as they walked down the hall, turning a few times before coming out to viewing panels in the entrance of the hospital.

"Miranda." Shepard said.

"Jane." Miranda said equally

"No, you know what I mean."

"I'm fine, really."

This time Shepard unlocked there arms and faced her.

"Damnit, alright...Alright. " she paused

"I didn't lose you, other then Oriana, you are like family to me Shepard, a sister, annoying, dense and sometimes rude, but none the less you and her are all I have.. Some of the crew but not at your level." She let out a breath she was holding in.

"Since you always bail me out, does that make me the younger sister?" Shepard mocked.

"You are such an ass." Miranda smiled then chuckled.

"Not as much as your a-"

"Do not finish that sentence."

Shepard held up her arms in defeat as they headed back to her room. The citadel was far from okay, But was in much better condition then they had predicted. Some of the wards needed to be rebuilt, some the docking areas needed to be completely removed and then rebuilt. While all the species for now were together. They were all working together to build the best citadel defenses. It would not be easy but it was looking up.

When they finally reached the last turn, both Shepard and Miranda saw Liara walking towards the admirals room. Her usual blue seemed a bit less blue almost a grey hue.

"Liara. Honey, you alright?" Shepard reached out for liara's hand.

The asari had not noticed her love and Miranda walking up. She was hoping to catch a few moments before seeing Shepard but that was not the case now.

She held Jane's hand "Of course, just a little light headed."

"Jane has done everything she has needed for today so you both can have some privacy in her room, Ill be back tomorrow morning to check on you though." Shepard and Liara nodded as the newly appointed commander Lawson of the of the alliance navy walked away, but she didn't know that yet, Shepard was going to surprise her.

"When was the last time we laid in each others arms and just watched a vid?" Shepard said limping over to her bed, Liara sitting on her lap ever so gently.

"I believe when Tali was too drunk and started to do the sounds of the Normandy." Liara laughed placing a kiss on Janes forehead. She still had no idea how she was going to tell Shepard.

"Well then, whatever we watch is up to you." Once again limping Shepard put on a lose navy shirt and attempted to put on her boxers but tripped, Liara ran over and grabbed her, before she fell, as she pulled her up there faces, nearly inches away, Shepard leaned in for a kiss but the asari pulled back.

"Liara?" The admiral now baffled Liara doesn't pull away.

It was a moment of panic, she knew if they kissed, the type of kiss they would have, would lead to a meld, and she then could not hide the life she was carrying. She was mixed with emotions, she felt horrible about keeping this from Shepard, she never kept any secrets from her, and Shepard had never even thought of keeping secrets, they were always honest.

I just want time.

She then knelled down and helped Jane with her boxers and placed a tender kiss on her lips.

"I love you, Jane" she said.

Why did she pull away? Liara never pulls away.

Did she do it intentionally? Or was it innocently because she wanted to help me?

She shook those thoughts away, if Liara had something to tell her she would, keeping secrets would not work between the hero who found the biggest secret of the galaxy, reapers, and the asari or as others know her the Shadow Broker, knew everything and anything. When she had finally come back to reality, she saw Liara, already dressed in a loose shirt of Jane's and panties, was sitting on the bed crossed legged, her head to the side observing Jane, a glint in her eyes was just pure happiness, as a smile filled her face.

How did she change so fast?

"You know Jane, as much as I love to.. examine you, I would much prefer it if you were right here." As she lays down and turns to her side, and moves her hand up and down the side of the bed, where Shepard usually lays.

As Shepard limped her way to the bed and laid down in her usual spot, as her love snuggled to her side, the only thing, the only thought that passed her mind was clearer than anything she had thought of before

God, I love her.
