Bomber woke up in the morning feeling sick. She run in the toilet and threw couple times. Then she put her uniform on and went in galley.
"Morning Bomb. Tea for you." said Bird and gave her cup of tea.
"Thanks. Cup of tea is all what I need." said Bomber with smile.
"We are returning back in Cairns. Charge said that engines are overheating, so HMAS Victory is going to finish this patrol. Kate just told me." said Bird.
"Ok. I am going little bit on deck. I need air." said Bomber and walk out from galley.
"Question number one Bird, why is Bomber drinking tea? Question number two, what is wrong with her?" said Buffer and stand in front of young cook.
"I don't know Buff. You have to ask Bomber. She is on deck." said Bird. Buffer rolled his eyes and went towards deck.
"You ok Bomb?" he asked when he stands by her side.
"Yes I am." she answered with smile.
"What's wrong? I know that is something. You said we would talk when we came back, but I can't anymore..."
"I am pregnant." she said and looked into him waiting his reaction.
"What? Are you serious?" he asked while he was grining. She nodded with smile. He pull her into hug.
"Why you didn't tell me anything before?" he asked while she still was in his arms.
"Because I found it yesterday too." she answered. "For that I am leaving a ship." added Bomber and look into Buffer. He kissed her. Buffer and Bomber weren't awear that from bridge on them were looking Kate and Nav.
"You owe me a drink Kate." said Nav because she won a bet.
"Yeah yeah." said Kate and rolled her eyes.
"We are having a situation on lower deck." said Charge.
"What is going on?" asked Kate.
"It is EJ." he said and pointed on screen.
"Buffer!" called Kate and pointed on another side. He and Bomber went there together with Kate and Charge. EJ pass her legs over the rail and she wanted to jump.
"EJ look at me." said Kate and young et looked in her. "Don't do that." she added.
"I don't have what for to live anymore ma'am." she said and jumped down. Bomber run to jump for her, but Buffer stoped her.
"You are pregnant for Christ sake." he said and took her for an arm.
"I will." said Ryan and jumped down for EJ.
"Nav tell them to they away seaboat." said Kate and Nav nodded and run for bridge.
"Away a seaboat! Away seaboat!" was heard from PA. Bomber and Kate were standing on deck looking how Ryan was trying to find and save EJ. Finally he show with a hand that he has her. RHIB came toward them and they pull EJ in RHIB. She was unconcious but she was alive.
"Ma'am can we a word? In private?" asked Bomber.
"Sure. Come in my cab." said Kate. After couple minutes Bomber joined her.
"What is it?" asked Kate.
"It is my fault because EJ tried to kill herself." said Bomber.
"What?" asked Kate confused.
"She and Buffer had some affair and he left her month and a half ago."
"What? You knew it and you didn't said anything?"
"I am sorry ma'am."
"Ok. But how it is your fault?" asked Kate still confused.
"Because I am leaving ship because of Pete. He is father of my kid."
"I know that." said Kate and Bomber open wide eyes. "Me and Nav saw you two on deck." she added with a grin.
"Ma'am..."
"It is not your fault Bomber. You can not order to your heart. It is inposible. Pack your gear, we are returning back in Cairns." said Kate with smile.
"Aye ma'am." said Bomber and walk towards her cabin. She was passing bt wardroom and she heard conversation between Buffer and EJ.
"Why the hell did you do that?" asked Buffer standing by bed.
"For what to live Pete?" asked EJ and sit on bed. "To watch how you are happy with another woman? My life is destroyed." she added.
"Bomber has nothing to do with our broke."
"She has. From begining of our relationship, she was standing between us." interupted EJ.
"Elizabeth-Jane listen to me. I told you on deck that night that I love another woman. And you knew it from begining. I have never lied you." answered Buffer and leaned on table.
"She is leaving ship because you two are together?" asked EJ not looking into Buffer.
"Not just because of it. She is pregnant." answered Buffer. "Look EJ, leave this ship. Take another posting. Here it is going to be just bad reminder and you need to move away." offered Buffer. Bomber needed to move from her spot because she heard Kate while she was walking towards wardroom. Bomber went in her cabin and Kate went in wardroom.
"Buffer can you leave us for a minute?" she asked.
"Yes ma'am. Where is..."
"Bomber is in her cabin. She is packing her things." finished Kate and Buffer nodded. He turn and left wardroom.
"I am sorry ma'am because of that..." started EJ.
"You have been transffered. I can't hold you on mu boat knowing that you had an affair with your XO." interupted Kate.
"But it is finished..."
"I didn't finished." said Kate with high voice. "I don't want people like you on my board. People who are ready to take their lifes off." she added.
"Ma'am I promise it won't happen again." said EJ.
"Answer me please. Why you want to stay here on board? To try to destroy Buffer and Bomber's relationship maybe?"
"No. I would never do that."
"I know that women in your posicion are ready on all. So please pack your gear and leave my ship when we came in Cairns. You are posted on destroyer." said Kate.
"On destroyer? You are sending me away?" asked EJ with wide eyes.
"When I suggested your transffer commander White put you on destroyer." answered Kate and left wardroom leaving EJ alone.
Bomber was packing her things while Buffer was sitting by her rack.
"She is wright. I destroyed her life, her dreams." said Bomber not looking in Buffer and still packing her things.
"You didn't..." he started.
"Yes I did. I should to put a distance between us, but I never made in that. And...and..." Buffer shut her up and pull her into hug.
"Look you can't stress yourself so much. Don't forget you are pregnant." said Buffer and kissed Bomber in forehead. "I have to go to prepare all for docking and to gave some reports to Kate. I will came later to check on you." he smiled and went out. Bomber sighed and move with packing. Someone entered in her cabin.
"I am fine. You don't have to check on me every five minutes." said Bomber while she was thinking that that was Buffer.
"We need to talk." said EJ.
"About what?" asked Bomber.
"I thought you are honest person, but you are one lieing bitch. You take him from me." yelled EJ.
"I didn't take anything for you. Me and Pete didn't have anything when you two were together." defended Bomber but EJ slaped her.
"Get out! And leave me alone." said Bomber and turned to move witg her packing.
"You are not going to have his child." yelled EJ and push Bomber from behind. Bomber fell on the rack and while she was felling she slammed a lamp on the flore. Buffer and Dutchy were walking by corridor in moment when noise from Bomber's cabin. They entered in and saw how EJ wanted to hit once more Bomber. Dutchy restrained EJ but he get couple hites from her.
"Are you ok? Is baby ok?" asked Buffer and hugged Bomber.
"I am fine. She didn't hurt me." smiled Bomber.
Dutchy manage to pull EJ out and he locked her in her cabin.
"Hey Bird, do you have some ice?" asked Dutchy when he entered in galley.
"Yes...what happened to you? asked Bird when she saw Dutchy's red eye.
"EJ attacked Bomber. I tried to restraine her and get couple hites. Bomber is ok." said Dutchy and took ice pack from Bird's hand.
"Let me see it." said Bird and moved ice pack from his eye. "You will be ok. Just put some ice on it and it will pass." she added. Dutchy smiled and put his hand on her face. He leaned in and put his lips on hers.
