A/N: this was written for a prompt on tumblr.
Devon took a shaky breath. "You can't protect me." Her hand slid over his, squeezing it gently. She met his eyes. "John, I know that's your first instinct, but I'm capable of this and more."
He let out a frustrated breath. "I know you're capable. It's not about that." And he knew she knew that.
His free hand slid over and covered her slightly rounded middle. He held her gaze. "But it is not just you anymore."
She sighed, knowing full well what was at stake. "I won't take any unnecessary risks, John."
He leaned in, capturing her mouth in a kiss. "You know I can't say no to you, right?"
She smiled. "You won't regret it. I promise."
