" are you sure? "
she asks,
her hand still holding her belly.
it felt heavier, and heavier as time progressed .
she felt a kick , causing her to lean forward a bit , grimacing.
" I'm sorry again,
I was trying to get away from Thanos."
she says looking over her+
she stumbled into him,.very sleep deprived , her hand resting on her belly.
" I'm so sorry sir. . "
she says, her voice sounding very small , eyes guiltily looking to at him .
" I'm also worried for 333 ,
with him being near him ."
she says ,
her eyes averting to their hands again,
his felt,
nice,
she felt safer with him here .
that,
she could sense him watching her.
but he didn't scare her.
his secret was still safe with himself.
( she's fidgeting in her seat uncomfortably. )
" I - uhm ,
thanos,
I don't feel safe near him,
I can feel him watching me,
like a hawk . . "
she mumbled +
" can ,
can I tell you something ? "
she asks,
her tone of voice sounding a little fatigued due to her pregnancy, her ankles were getting more swollen each day, her eyes getting heavier as she sat against the pillow that he gave her.
it was about Thanos ,
she did not +
“ you were alone , you can’t blame yourself too much .”
He reassured , gaze never leaving her face as he watched her tiny mannerisms , not helping the smile that only grew .
“ everything will be alright .”
her eyes were saddened when he said those words.
she felt her baby kick,
causing her to flinch a little,
hand idly rubbing her belly as it happened .
" I wish I knew this was what I was getting into.
I was just so. . . desperate for anything. ."
she said quietly.
“ what matters is that you and your child come out safely .”
he didn’t even think about his own safety at that moment , or about the role that he was secretly withholding from everyone — only the fear of her well-being .
“ you ( will ) come out of this .”
she looked down at their connected hands,
a sudden fear washed over her as he said those words.
" but - but what if something happens to you, I - I would never forgive myself ."
she says quietly, chewing on her lower lip while she looked back into his dark, mysterious eyes.
she has looked down at her belly briefly ,
soon to look back over at him,
giving him a small smile.
then soon a small frown.
" do - do you think they'll ,
they'll kill me and the baby. ."
she asks ,
her voice sounding scared while she sat next to the other one.
" a boy . . "
she says quietly , giving a small smile.
that is , if she makes it out of this place.
" I just want to be able to provide them with the best life,
I didn't expect all of this you know ? "
she says , her voice small as she spoke looking over at the other.
A soft ( smile ) tugged at his brims , cold expression softening into one of fondness .
“ so — are you hoping for a girl ? boy ?”
he asked curiously, hands warming themselves up in the provided blanket .
she idly takes the pillow from him,
placing it behind her back as she sits down . .
" thank you . . "
she says giving him a small nod ,
cradling her stomach as she sat with her legs crossed.
he expresses a defeated nod , taking the blanket and staring down at it for a moment .
“ wait .”
turning to grab his pillow , he offers it to her .
“ at least let me give you this , it can offer a bit more support for your back . . .”
she really didn't mind,
she doesn't really sleep much
as of late .
" it's okay,
I , I really dont use it much anyways . . " she says quietly ,
her hand on her belly as she still is holding out her blanket for him .
Hands gently take her wrists before she could fully offer the blanket .
“ hey , hey .
don’t worry about me — you need this more than I do .”
he softly reassures , in-ho would feel a sense of guilt if he took away her only sense of warmth .
