30 weeks, Mary is now about 30 weeks pregnant, it has been hard since they returned from their honeymoon. All the fuzzing by Catherine, the odd foods that Mary has finally agreed to eat, Catherine sending Nostradamus to check on her almost daily, all the weird teas ect that she's made to drink. She just wants to be alone with Francis in their chambers, but she can't even have that. Francis has so many meetings and other stuff all the time now sinse King Henry is ill. Well not technically ill, just mad. He has accidentally killed two girls in his bed now. Francis is scared that once Mary delivers the baby Henry would try to do something to him. Everyone in the castle is scared of him

She twists in their bed again. She wokeup so early that the sun hasn't even risen jet. The pregnancy has been so so hard. Mary is tired all the time since she can't sleep with the baby constantly moving and pushing her insides around, or at least that is what it feels like. Mary can't seem to find a comfortable position to lay so she could fall back a sleep so she just decides to give up on sleeping.

She just sits on the bed reading a book while Francis is still sleeping next to her. He looks so calm while he sleeps, nothing bothering him, no sign of stress on his face. Mary takes a moment from her book to stroke her husbands cheek gently only to accidentally wake him up.

"Mary" he says quietly while sitting up "why are you awake?"

"I- I couldn't sleep, the baby, he's constantly moving around" Mary says before she inhales sharply as she feels a fast kick on her side. "can you feel him" she asks as she places Francis' hand on her abdomen. Her srurpricingly big abdomen, her belly looks like she would be on her 9th month but she isn't, she is on her 7th.

"I think he's gonna be a fast little buddy" Francis jokes as he can heel the babys kicks on her stomach

"very funny" Mary rolls her eyes. She has been so tired since she hadn't slept much in the last seven months and all the stress makes her very grumpy sometimes.

"Mary, darling, you should try to sleep" he says kissing her cheek "is there anything I can do to help you sleep?"

"Make the freaking kicking stop, I feel like he's gonna break his way out of my stomach himself" she answers rubbing her eyes gently.

"unfortunately I can't do that" he chuckles a little "but would you like me to bring you something? Tea?"

"no, no I'm fine really" she shakes her head

"no Mary you are not, I can see how exhausted you are, you need to rest my love" he says while taking the book from Mary which makes her frown. "really, try to sleep I'm serious" Mary just sighs at that turning her back at Francis. He just chuckles at her reaction before he takes her in his arms. Francis falls back asleep pretty fast but Mary still lays awake in his arms.

Marys dreams have become quite weird theese last months, Catherine said it's because of the baby. But she doesn't think that pregnancy would cause her nightmares. That's also a thing why she can't really fall a sleep, she's scared of the dreams she'll see. Usually when she wakes up from one of her nightmares, she's out of breath and all sweaty. But eventually sleep takes her again.

This time she doesn't have a nightmare, it's a pretty nice dream actually. Mary dreams about their honeymoon, they had just arrived there, southern France, there was this beautiful château near a beach where they stayed. Even though it was not proppee for royals to act how they acted while staying there, no one said anything. Well the only people there with them were servants and guards so there's nothing they could have said to them.

Mary dreams if this one specific day before she had started to show.

"you can't be serious" she whispered while giggling.

"oh but I am. Come on it will be fun" he said while taking her hand and pulling her with him.

"Francis someone will see us" she giggled.

"No they won't" he winked at her "I found this place, near the beach, it's covered with trees and rocks, no one will come there"

"oh for Gods sake you gotta be kidding me" she shook her head.

"I'm not!" he said before turning torwards the guards that were standing at their doors "The Queen and I are going on a walk, we don't need any guards with us" he tells them the guards try to insist on coming with them for their protection but the young royal couple had already taken off.

They walk to this beautiful place at the beach, far from the château but close enough so it's still on the grounds. Mary sits on the sand, not even worrying about her dress getting ruined by the wet salty sand.

"Oh you are not just gonna sit there" Francis chuckled before pulling her up

"What do you mean?"

"We're gonna go swimming" he answers as he pulls his shirt off

"oh no, no we are not"

"oh yes we are"

"no" she protests while taking a step back.

"yeeees" Francis whines as he lifts Mary up in his arms so she can't run away.

"let me down" Mary giggled as he attacked her neck with kisses. He looses his balance and falls on his back on the sand Mary on top of him, both giggling like children. She kissed him softly only for him to deepen their kiss. His hands working quickly on her dress, she had gave up corsets as soon as they arrived, it's not propper but there's no one to tell her what to do and what not to do. It doesn't take long until Mary has only her underdress on and that's when he rolls them around so he is on top.

"I love you" he says before kissing her deeply "I love you so much you have no idea" he says before kissing her again. She rolls them back so she's straddling Francis.

"I love you more"

"No I love you more" he sits up so that Mary is sitting on his lap and they kiss again and she can feel his arousal through his trousers. Mary suddenly pushes him back down before she makes quick work with untying his trousers and removing them. After that she rolls her underdress over her head and tosses it away in the sand.

"Mary what are yo-" she cuts him off with a kiss before she lowers herself on his throbbing arousal. They both let out a sigh of pleasure. She slowly starts to roll her hips against his not completely sure what she's doing since Francis has always been the one on top. Her hands are on his chest for balance while his hands are on her hips guiding her movements.

"Jesus Christ" she breathes out as she slowly starts to go faster. Suddenly Francis bends his knees with a groan so that Mary falls out of balance and against Francis' chest. He holds her still while he starts to thrust into his wife. "Oh my Lord, Francis!" she almost screams in ecstasy "Don't you dare to stop!" she moans. He continues his fast thrusting until he can feel his wife tighten around him as her whimpers of pleasure become louder. She comes just seconds after and he's not far behind.

After that they just lay in the sand, in each others arms, bith had forgotten about the swimming.

Mary wakes up as the baby continues kicking and she let's out a groan, that was a good dream and she didn't want to wake up from it just let but the baby decided otherwise. Mary closes her eyes and tries to continue the dream but she doesn't succeed. It's been so long since the last time they had been intimate, Francis is scared that they'll hurt the baby if they loose control of their bodies or something. Mary misses his touch, his lips on her skin.

She turns around with a groan only to find that Francis is not next to her. She's annoyed by that, since they were married she had woken up everyday with Francis next to her, he must have a good reason for not being next to her now.

She gets up and gets dressed. She's so happy that she doesn't have to wear corsets anymore now that she's pregnant, only good thing so far. She's wearing a light blue dress, it's really thick since winter is coming and she has to keep herself warm since she's pregnant.

Mary walks out of their chambers. Franics is not in the throne room, or in his study, nowhere in the corridors. She's getting slightly annoyed when she can't find her husband anywhere.

"Mary" she hears a familiar voice behind her, she turns around only to find King Henry walking towards her.

"King Henry" she did a slight curtsy.

"I was hoping to find you"

"Oh, how so?" she asked confused while taking a step back not feeling safe around Henry.

"I was wondering, how long until you are supposed to deliver the child"

"about two months" she answers placing both of her hands on her growing abdomen as to protect her baby. "why?"

"Good, I was just wondering" he said before walking past her and she could swear to God she heard him saying to himself "I can't marry a pregnant queen" she shook her head in shock, perhaps she heard wrong, the king is mad yes but he wouldn't try to marry her would he? She shook her head again, what was she doing oh yes she was trying to find Francis.

Maybe he's in the gardens, hopefully. It's a bit cold outside and the grass is covered in frost, there is a lot of clouds in the sky so there is no sun to warm her up. Mary wraps her arms around herself as she walks through the gardens only to find that her husband isn't there neither. She decided to give up and ordered a servant to bring her breakfast to their chambers.

It's a piece of bread and some weird soup, she can't quite tell what it is but it tastes surprisingly sweet. It's probably something that Catherine has told the kitchen to make her. She sits on the couch on their chambers wrapped up in a warm blanket while she's taking small bites of her bread until the doors open suddenly.

"Where the hell have you been?" her voice sounds very mad and she doesn't even look at him.

"I'm sorry Mary, I just had something urgent to take care of and I didn't want to wake you up since you had finally fallen asleep" he says while he sits on the other side of the couch and takes Marys legs and places them on his lap as he starts to slightly massage them. She has had some leg pains and her legs are really swollen. Another side effect of pregnancy she had learned from Catherine.

Mary just lets out a sigh "I was sad when I found out that you weren't next to me when I woke up"

"Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?" he asks. She throws her legs on the ground and sits up and kisses him hungrily. He answers to the kiss of course but pulls back later. "Mary we shouldn't.. the baby" she groans.

"I'm gonna loose my mind if I can't touch you soon" she says before kissing him again.

"Mary we shouldn't risk it, I promise once you have delivered the child I'll give you all of my love" he kisses her cheek before he stood up "I have a meeting soon, I'll see you later okay?" she just nods and he leaves.
