Lisa walks into her apartment completely exhausted from the day. It takes her a second to realize how clean it is. She walks to her bedroom, finding the bed made with a handwritten note lying on it. Domesticated Sonny decided to help over worked Ensign Davis out a little. PS last night was awesome, I wasn't kiddin when I said I miss party Lisa. Lisa sits on her bed, what the fuck was wrong with her? Maybe she did need to let him in a little more, did he even want that? Lisa pulls out her phone and text Sonny. "Thank you so much for cleaning, I have been working so much I haven't had time. She hits send.
Sonny feels his phone vibrate, he pulls it out of his pocket and reads the message. "You are very welcome. Let me know if you need anything, I mean it. We gotta keep our bomb dot com intel officer in tip top shape."
Lisa laughs, really laughs reading Sonny's response. She has no idea how to respond so she sends a couple of laughing face emojis and a strong arm.
Lisa showers and crawls into her freshly made bed. She laid there longing terribly for Sonny to be next to her.
Over the next two weeks Lisa continued to watch the situation in Caracas closely. Once Mandy had gathered the information she needed to get the op green lit Davis made her way to Caracas.
"Lisa. Are you okay?" Mandy asks finding Lisa sleeping in the room they were sharing.
Lisa opens one eye. "Mmhmm. Yeah I'm good. I just can't shake this jetlag feeling and I don't know why. Even though I have been her for five days."
"Oh god you didn't drink the water, did you?" Mandy laughs.
"I almost wish I did, just so I could know why I feel off. Anyways, did you find out anything new?" Lisa sits up and has to take a couple of deep breaths to keep the nausea at bay.
Mandy eyes Davis. Davis shakes her head and Mandy keeps talking. "My contact thinks they may have moved the prisoners to a different part of the building. I am just waiting for conformation. The guys should be here soon."
"Good, I am ready to get this show on the road." Davis says standing.
Mandy and Davis walk into the TOC and find the team has arrived. Lisa sees Sonny and her stomach immediately does flip flops, god she feels like a schoolgirl with a crush all of a sudden. The team gets the needed information, forms a plan and gets ready to head out. Lisa grabs Sonny's forearm. "Be safe, okay?"
Sonny is shocked by this "I, I always am. Don't worry, I'm comin back to ya." Davis lets go of his arm and he walks away. Davis leans against a desk, why did she just do that? It is just a mission; she has watched him do this hundreds of times.
For the first time since everything had gone to hell in a handbasket and Davis thought she was going to die she sat alone, with her fluids infusing. She closes her eyes and takes a mental inventory of herself. Her head hurt like hell where she was hit. She still felt weak and shaky, as she had for over a week now. She felt vaguely nauseous, same as the last week. Lisa is still deep in thought when Trent comes back to check on her. "The fluids are done. How are you feeling?"
Lisa flashes Trent a weak smile "Better."
"You're such a liar Davis." He laughs.
"Okay, fine. Not 100%, but I didn't feel prefect before all of this shit went down anyways, so I think this is as good as I am going to get."
"Please just tell me if you get dizzy or a really bad headache." Trent says removing the IV cather from her arm.
"Thank you, Trent." Davis says standing.
Lisa sits at the desk staring at her computer Sonny just told her he would have burnt this city to the ground if I had been killed. He still cared. It felt good to let her guard down for a second. Davis still couldn't process all of this.
Lisa walked into her apartment after one of the hardest 48 hours of her life. She almost died, Sonny almost died, and they almost didn't make it out of Venezuela. Lisa spent the next week buried in her work. The team had just been notified they were being forwardly deployed in one week.
Lisa was lying on her sofa the night before they shipped out looking at the stack of bags she was taking with her when her phone rang. She looks at and sees it's Sonny, she answers "Hi Sonny."
"Uh, hey Lisa. I, uh, I was wonderin if ya wanted to come to the bar for one last night out before we deploy?"
"Sonny, that's really sweet to invite me, and I want to, but I just do not feel up to it. I'll pass."
"Oh, uh ya feelin okay?" Sonny asks concerned.
"Eh, I'm not sick or anything, I just don't feel quite right."
"Ya need anything?"
"No, thank you though Sonny. You and the guys enjoy your last night before we catch the plane to hell."
"Okay, well do not be afraid to ask if ya need somethin."
Lisa smiles. He was truly the sweetest. "Bye Sonny"
"Bye Davis."
She hangs up her phone.
Thirty minutes later there was a knock on her door. "Lisa it's me."
Lisa freezes she looks like a hot mess. "Coming Sonny." Fuck she thinks to herself, but she doesn't have the energy to really care. Lisa walks over to the door and opens it.
She finds Sonny standing with a couple of grocery bags. "Hey Davis." He awkwardly smiles.
"Sonny what are you doing her? She says stepping aside to let him in.
Sonny walks towards the kitchen and Lisa follows. "Ya sounded miserable on the phone, so I thought I would come over and cook ya one last homemade meal before we are forced to eat JSOC base food."
"Thank you, Sonny, but you really don't have to do this."
"I know I don't have to Davis, but I want to. Can you just let me help ya? Ya don't have to be strong all of the time."
"I am just so used to being the one everyone leans on. I, I don't know how not to be."
Sonny pulls her against him. "Lets start by ya sittin down and lettin me cook ya dinner."
Lisa buries her face in Sonny's chest. "You're too good to me, Sonny."
"No, I ain't. Ya deserve the best." Sonny says rubbing her back.
"Oh, Sonny." Lisa feels like she is about to burst out in tears. "So what are you making me for dinner?"
"Brussel sprouts and pork chops. Sound good to ya?"
"Anything I didn't have to cook sounds good."
"Good" Sonny says readjusting his grip on her to pick her up and sit her on the counter.
"Show off." Lisa laughs.
"That ain't showin off or were ya drunker than I thought last month?" Sonny says with a laugh.
"Oh no, I remember."
"Better" Sonny chuckles, moving away from her to start cooking.
Lisa watched Sonny work for a while. "I thought the only cooking you did was grilling Sonny?"
"I gotta keep ya on your toes Davis. Ya can't know all of my secrets."
"Oh really, I can't? And why is that Sonny?"
"I mean, I have to keep up the international redneck of mystery act."
Lisa can't stop laughing. "What the fuck is that Sonny?"
"Everyone thinks I am just a dumbass redneck door kicker."
"Everyone but me. You have always showed me the real Sonny."
"That is two-way street there Davis. Ya showed me a side of ya that ain't nobody else gets to see."
"You were always my other half, even before we ever." Lisa points between them.
Sonny pauses and smiles. "So ya haven't forgotten how good we are together."
"Sonny that would impossible to forget. Come here." She says reaching her arms out to him. Sonny walks over to her and she wraps her arms around his waist. "I never said thank for what you said in Venezuela. I needed to hear that. I needed you."
"I am always here for ya Davis." Sonny says wiping a stray tear from her cheek. They lock eyes. "This ones on ya." Sonny tells Lisa in a low husky voice. Lisa kisses him. Sonny isn't sure what is happening, but what he is sure of is how right this feels. Sonny tingles his fingers in her hair.
All of a sudden Lisa pushes Sonny away from her and hops off the counter and runs to her bathroom. Lisa slams the door behind her and barley makes it to the toilet before throwing up. When she thinks her stomach is done getting out any possible ounce of anything that could have been in it she leans back against the wall. As she sat there she began to think, why had she thrown up? Hell why had she been so nauseous and sickly lately. Once she felt better she stood up and opened the top drawer of the cabinet to take out her toothpaste, she bushes her teeth. As she is putting the toothpaste back her hand hits the empty bottle of antibiotics she had taken for the upper respiratory infection she had. In that moment it all hits her. "FUCK" she yells slapping her hand on the counter.
Sonny heard this and his concern grew even higher. He decided to go check on her. He knocks on the bathroom door, but all he hears is her sniffle. "Lisa, I'm coming in." Sonny opens the door and finds Davis sitting on the floor tears in her eyes with a death grip on a pill bottle. "What's wrong Davis? Are ya that repulsed by me?" Sonny asked trying to make light of the situation. She shakes her head no. "Okay, so ya gonna tell me what is so special about that bottle right there?"
"I, I think it, um, ruined my life, our lives." Davis says throwing the pill bottle against the wall.
Sonny picks up the bottle and reads the label. "Amoxicillin? How the hell did that ruin our lives?" Sonny is still clueless as to what Davis is talking about.
"Uh, well, that night last month… umm, I was just getting over an upper respiratory infection and I had just taken the last dose of those that morning."
Sonny is still confused. He shifts so he is sitting next to her. "Color me ignorant, but I ain't got no clue why ya havin an upper respiratory infection is ruinin our lives."
Lisa takes a deep breath; she knows she has to just say it. "Antibiotics interact with birth control and make it ineffective. And we didn't use a…"
Sonny wipes his hand down his face. "Are ya tryin to tell me you're pregnant?"
"I, I don't know. I haven't taken a test or anything, but it all makes sense. I have been feeling like shit since about a week after that night, super emotional, nauseous, and just different. Oh, and I haven't had period this month. Fuck Sonny, I'm sorry."
"Ya ain't got nothin to be sorry for. But did you just figure this out?" Sonny drapes his arm over her shoulders, rubbing her arm.
"Um yeah, I thought I was just over working myself. And then I was putting my toothpaste back just now and I saw the pill bottle and it all just hit me. Sonny, I can't be pregnant and with your child. Fuck, I am so fucked."
"Woah, slow down. Let's make sure first."
"I think there is one under the sink, just make sure it isn't expired." Lisa says squeezing her eyes shut.
"Ya just keep pregnancy test lying around?" Sonny asks leaning forward and opening the cabinet door.
"Are you really making a joke right now Sonny?"
"There's always time for jokes." Sonny says rooting around under the sink. "Ah ha. Found them. And look at that not expired." He leans back against the wall and pulls Davis close to him.
"Okay, out. Let me just get this over with." Lisa says standing. She takes the box from Sonny.
"Pep talk now or later?" Sonny asks kissing her on the cheek.
"Later. Now get out." Lisa says pushing him towards the door. She closes the door behind him. Lisa takes a deep breath and thinks just get it over with. She decides to take two, because two is better than one, right? Lisa sets the timer on her phone and sinks onto the edge of the tub and waits. The timer goes off and Lisa takes a deep breath, truly afraid to look at a pregnancy test for the first time in her life, even though deep down she already knows. She does it, she looks and they both read pregnant. Lisa looks at herself in the mirror. "Officially Sonny Quinn's baby mama, shit."
Sonny has been sitting on the sofa for what feels like forever. He always figured if he had a kid this was about how it was going to happen, he just never thought it would be with Lisa Davis. Finally, he hears the bathroom door open. Lisa walks out to him holding two pregnancy tests. Sonny can't read the expression on her face.
Lisa reaches the hand holding the pregnancy tests out to him. "Congratulations Daddy." She says flatly.
Sonny stands and wraps her in his arms. "We are gonna make this work. This little one is gonna know nothin but love. I can't wait to see the little human we create. I love ya so much Lisa. I couldn't ask for a better partner to raise a child with. You're going to be an amazing mom."
"Fuck Sonny. You can't really be excited about this?"
"Listen Lisa. Is this the best timing? No, but that doesn't mean we can't be happy we are going to have a little us coming into this world."
"Sonny there is so much we have to figure out."
"I know there is Lisa, but we don't have to figure it all out tonight. Let's just eat dinner and relax, okay?"
"Okay Sonny. Thank you for being so wonderful, there is no way I am going to be able to do this without you. And I love you too."
