"Kate how long have you been feeling sick" he asked grabbing a cool face washer for her to wipe her face cool
"Since last week" she said avoiding his gaze as she knew he was upset she didn't tell him "Kate, why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't want you to worry"
"Why?" mike asked now walking her out of bathroom and sitting beside her on the bed
"I think I might be Pregnant.." Kate said refusing to look at him
"What?"
"I said I think I might be Pregnant"
"Kate I.." but he was cut off by Swain requesting him to come to the bridge through the loud speaker, giving her a apologetic smile he left his cabin and headed to the bridge.
Heading back to her Cabin Kate layed down in her rack and began to cry she had always imagined this moment when she was Pregnant with Melissa. She was worried what Mike would say, he never knew when she was Pregnant with Melissa because he left, what would he have said if he knew about her when she found herself. If Mike never knew of Melissa would he want this child? There was only one way to find out she needed to take the test to put her and Mike's mind at reast.
Away with her thoughts she didn't hear her cabin door open, or even someone saysaying her name she didn't know he was there until she felt a hand on her hip
"Kate?, why are you crying" mike asked as he shifted on her rack pulling her close to him so her head was resting on his chest
"What if I am Pregnant are we really ready for that step, we only just got back together a month ago" mike cuddled her tighter as he began to tear up
"Would you still have wanted Melissa if you knew about her from day 1?"
"Of course I would Kate just because I didn't know about her doesn't mean I dont love her any less"
"What about now if I am Pregnant?" kate asked now looking up at mike
"Then we will raise him or her together this time" mike said placing a kiss on her nose
"I love you so much" she said placing a hand on his cheek "And I love you Kate" he said leaning down placing a longing kiss on her lips, before both of them knew it they were kissing Passionately, unbuttoning each others shirt's.
Both of them lost within one another they didn't hear Nav enter until they heard her speak "OMG!" both coming out of there spell looked at Nav
"Um, right get some rest before your watch X" Mike said acting like nothing happened hoping off Kate's rack and doing his shirt up as he walked out he winked at kate and mouthed the words 'good luck'.
Kate now doing up her own shirt and slightly blushing from Nav having caught her and Mike. "I knew it!" Nav said shutting the door to their cabin and sitting down next to her "Nav you can't tell anyone!" said kate begging her "Don't worry kate your secret's safe with me but.., I have one question is the boss Melissa's Dad?"
"Yes" kate answered
"Does he know?" Nav asked worried she was over stepping it a bit.
"Yes, he found out on our last Patrol we've been together since, Mike has asked Steve for a shore posting. 7 years ago when I found out I was Pregnant with Melissa he had left 3 months before I didn't know where he was so I never told him" kate said tears forming in her eyes
"Oh Kate, I'm so sorry" Nav said as she moved to give her a hug.
"And now I may be Pregnant again and I'm worried Mike might not want this baby" kate said placing her hand on her abdomen "Are you 100% sure your Pregnant?" Nav asked curiously
"I haven't taken a test it's just the vomiting and nausea like I got with Melissa so I just kinda suspected"
"Kate you need to do a test just so you know" Nav said rummaging through her draw "Swain keeps these in here as we're the only Women aboard" she said handing kate the pregnancy test.
Walking out from the bathroom 5 minutes later kate placed the test on the desk "Now we wait" said Nav getting ready to leave "Stay with me please!" kate said grabbing her hand. Sitting back down Nav said "It will be fine Kate, Mike will be there for you this time it won't be like last time if it's positive" "Thanks Nav" kate said squeezing her hand for comfort. When the time came to check the test, kate moved off her rack to look at the test looking back at Nav she said the words she'd been scared of "It's Positive" sitting back down next to Nav she embraced her in a comforting hug.
Now all she had to do was tell Mike...
