Sorry for not having updated for such a long time I've had exams and a bad case of writers block, so without further delay on with the next chappie.

Bomber's PoV

After having got stuck with the duty of finding the Boss, I swear I must have searched the whole ship I've tried his cabin, as I can't find the girl either I check down in the galley thinking he might be there with her, nothing could prepare me for the state of my galley I'm in here for a good minuet there's sauce all over my cupboards ice cream on the side.

I hear noises coming from the officer's mess, I knock on the door and barge straight in there, about to shout at whoever it was who made my galley a god awful mess. I take one quick glance round the room and my eyes turn to the Boss, who's covered in sauce and the kid with ice cream in her hair and then anger all goes. I bite down on my lip trying hard not to laugh.

"Bomber?" Both the boss and the kid are looking at me. The girl has a slightly scared but puzzled expression on her face; her uneasiness is made clearer when she reaches for the bear that's sitting next to her on the bench.

I clear my throat; but somehow my smile doesn't seem to want to go, "Sir, Nav has requested you on the bridge." His gaze shifts to the girl, "I'll look after her Sir. The X's is in her cabin asleep" He seems weary to leave her "Don't worry sir we'll have fun clearing up the mess you made, speaking of you might wanna clean yourself up before heading up to the bridge" He looks at me oddly, before taking the packet of crackers off the table.

"Will do Bomber, it's not that urgent then?"

"I think she wants to talk to you 'bout the X sir, I couldn't see anything on the radar and RO didn't appear to be getting anything on through the radio."

Another wave of concern washes over his face, "Thanks Bomber" he says before almost bolting out of the room.

I take the seat that the boss had previously occupied, "you okay?"

She takes another mouthful of her sundae before replying "I want a nickname," She takes another mouthful. "Cause everyone else has a nickname so why can't I"

To be fair the girl has a valid point. "Well what's your name?"

"Millie" She says it so quiet I could barely hear her.

"Well with such an awesome name like that you're gonna need an extra awesome nickname." I stop and try to think of one Millions passes through my head but that'll just be shortened to Mil or Milz. I catch Spider passing by, "hey Spider, I need your help with something."

He pokes his head through the door. "What is it Bomb, tell me it's not cleaning up your galley and I'm in."

"Don't worry Spi; I just need your help thinking of a cool nickname that's all." I wink at Millie, who just giggles, then goes back to eating her sundae.

He enters the room more to see who I'm with, "Oh yeah, who for?"

"Millie here needs a super awesome nickname and because it has to be so awesome I think it needs more than one person to help come up with a nickname."

"Hmm Yeah that is a tough ask, you know Buffer's the one who really good with nicknames he gave 2dads his and mine, we should go and ask him."

"Spider you go find Buffer, Me and Millie will be getting the galley cleaned up."

"Okay Bomb I'll see what I can do, maybe get everyone involved aye?"

"Sounds like a plan Spi" As Spider leaves the room I pick up Millie and head off to the galley. I fill up a bucket of water with washing up liquid, I place it in the middle of the floor and hand Millie a sponge. She looks at me wearily.

"Here like this," I tell her as I wipe down the side, she walks to the bucket and puts her hand in the water and take out some of the soap studs and puts a few on the end of her nose, while she blows the rest away.

I smile at her as she does so; I place my hand in do the same. "I'm not gonna tell you off, we gotta have some fun while we clean up this mess to you know." She goes back to the bucket and gets another handful out.

"Bomber?" I bend down to her level and as I do so she blows the handful of bubbles at me. I glare at her as I head over to the bucket and handful out myself; I head towards her

"Millie?" She giggles as I blow the bubbles at her, we go and forth like this for a good few minutes each of us covered head to toe in bubbles, as I go to pick up another handful I notice that it's not just the bubbles we've been throwing around most of the waters missing too, just as I'm about to throw my next handful at Millie I hear someone clear their throat. I take a gulp before looking up.

Kate's PoV

I hear footsteps outside the door, then a knock before it opens. I as soon as they enter I know its Mike I close my eyes and face the wall, hoping he'll think I'm asleep.

"Kate?" He places something down on the desk and moves closer to the bed. He sits down on the bed, "you asleep?" I close my eyes tighter, as his hand gently runs through my hair. His chuckle fills the silence, "I'm sorry for before Kate I never should have left like that, I just, just needed some time to calm down and to wrap my head around this." He takes a deep breath. "Well I guess you are asleep, sweet dreams Katie." His hand is replaced by his lips briefly, he gets up off the bed, "I love you both" he says before he turns round and leaves. The door closes behind him as a lone tear trickles down my check.

As I kick the covers off and climb out of bed, I turn and see a packet of crackers lying on the desk with a note under them I pick up the crackers up and the note and sit back down on the bed as I carefully open the note.

~K~

I'm sorry about before, I truly am Kate.

While I was on deck I had time to think back,

I was right what I said to you before you will make an amazing mum I just hope you were right about me,

Oh I also found a lost Millie on deck, that's the little girl's name,

I managed to find her bear and make a total mess of the galley and me come to that,

Hope you like the crackers, they may calm your morning sickness down.

If you want to find Millie she's with Bomber helping her clean up the galley.

Always and forever,

~M~

After reading the note over and over again, I can't honestly remember a time where I've felt this happy, I decide munch a few of the crackers before heading down to the galley, wondering what the hell Mike was doing in order to make a mess of the galley in the first place. But before I realise it I've eaten my way through the whole packet, guess I was hungrier than I realised.

I hop of the bed and make my way out the cabin and to the galley making a mental note to speak to Mike later about everything and apologise for ignoring him, as I approach the doorway to the galley whatever mess Mike made earlier has been made worse by two soap stud covered cover beings, who appear to be having a fight with bubbles and water. I clear my throat to get their attention.

"KATE!" I hear as I almost get taken out by a bubbled covered Millie as she runs up to hug me, which almost drowns out the quiet "Ma'am" from Bomber. As I go to pick Millie up her hands fling the bubble stuff in my hair. Reaching up I brush the soap studs off, Millie starts giggling as they fall onto her.

I place her down on the side that's least wet. "Bomber can you pass me that towel please?" She throws me the towel. I carefully begin to dry her off it goes off without a hitch till I try drying her arms; she pulls back from me I can see the pain over her face as she tries hard not to cry. I bring her close to me and hand Bomber the towel.

"Do you want me to get Swain Ma'am?" I was about to reply with I'll take her, when I start feeling dizzy again; the last thing Millie needs is to me drop her or even fall on her.

"Yes please Bomber," she pauses and faces me, the concern on Bomber face isn't just for the small bundle held against me, the tears now freely flowing from her eyes. "I'm fine Bomber just go."

She sprints out the galley and down the hall till she turns a corner going out of sight, I let go of Millie and lean myself up against the cupboard in the galley, so not scare her if I pass put again, I get the feeling that she's witnessed enough if that, without adding anymore to it, placing my head in my arms we wait till Swain gets here, just hope it's soon.

I'm struggling to find nicknames for Millie, so if you guys can think of any leave them in the reviews. Hope you enjoyed the chapter.
