Steve found himself sitting at the table in his suite filling out a few forms. He and Natasha had talked much more last night and decided that just doing a simple marriage through the court was the easiest way to do things.
And according to Natasha, it would be an easier way for them to cover their tracks against any enemies. That part Steve did have to agree on. He certainly didn't want his child discovered by anyone who would want to cause it harm.
With a small sigh, Steve finished the last form. The last thing needed on the forms was Natasha's signature. Once that was done, they could just take them to the courthouse and have it finalized.
Just as he stood from the table, Steve heard the door open and close.
Natasha soon appeared.
"It's a definate positive." she announced. "My next appointment is in two months to have a sonogram."
"I'll be there." Steve said and handed her the papers. "You're signature is the only thing left."
"I'll sign them in a while. I want something to eat first. The crazy doctor made me not eat anything all morning."
"I'll fix you something. Go relax." Steve said.
Natasha wanted to protest against the action but she held herself back. She was a little tired from having to get up early, not eatting the entire time, waiting the entire time to hear something she already knew and coming all the way back to the tower.
And Steve is a pretty good cook.
She moved to the living room, sat on the couch and removed her boots. Her feet weren't hurting and she knew that was going to change in a few months. She wouldn't even be able to wear anything that had heels when that time came.
Taking a pen from her purse, Natasha began looking through the papers Steve had handed her.
She couldn't believe she was really doing this. She had vowed to never get married again. But Steve had managed to talk her into it. Mostly becaus they could just be a married couple for a few months and then they could go their own ways if they wanted.
Natasha quickly wrote her name on the forms and also wrote that she would be keeping her last name.
Just as she finished the last paper, Steve walked over with a tray and placed it on the coffee table before her.
"Last one." she said and gave him the papers.
Steve nodded. With just one more trip to the courthouse, he and Natasha would be legally married. Even though it would just be until the birth of their child, it still made him a little excited to know that he was soon going to be married.
Natasha turned to the food Steve made her. A wonderful looking egg and ham melt sandwich with a tall glass of orange juice.
One thing Natasha was looking forward to was all of the good meals she would be getting from Steve. He had repeatedly stated that he wanted thier baby to be as healthy as possible when the time came and that meant that Natasha had to be healthy throughout the pregnancy.
So he was going to make sure that she was as healthy as possible. Which meant cooking any time she was hungry and didn't feel like making anything. Majority of the meals would be very healthy but he agreed to let her have th occasional junk food from time to time.
Which was fine with Natasha, seeing as how she was going to have it worse.
"So, feeling sick at all? Tired? Stressed?" Steve asked before she could even take a bite of the sandwich.
"No. Nothing yet. It's only been a day, Steve." she answered.
"Anything can happen in a day." he pointed out.
"I know that. Can I please eat now?"
Steve nodded and remained silent as Natasha ate.
As she did, Natasha wondered if this was just the beginning of Steve's new attentive and protective side.
If it was, she was going to go crazy by the end of the second month.
