spamalot } of cheating ears and baby limes

Peter: [wakes up slowly in the morning, feeling his chest pressed up against Nadia's back and he smiles to himself, pulling her a bit closer to him. He had missed her while she had been gone, so he nuzzled his nose against her neck and... she smelt just a bit different. He pulled his nose away a bit, confused, not sure what that was about right away]

Nadia: [... is just going to keep snoozing, don't mind her. It was a long flight and she's just happy to be home. Since nothing seems wrong, she's just going to stay where she is]

Peter: [he takes a moment, concerned mate and all, and lets his senses see what they can take in. It isn't long before he hears it - the tiny freight train of a heartbeat that is neither of theirs. That hadn't been there when she had left, and his hand slid down to gently rest on top of her lower stomach, laying back down and just listening to the thumping with a smile on his face.]

Nadia: [she'll be out for a while, but eventually she'll stir and shift to curl into him more nose nestling against his neck as she starts to wake up] Morning.

Peter: Morning beautiful. [he kissed her forehead gently] Sorry I wasn't awake when you got home.

Nadia: Mmm. That's alright. It was late.

Peter: Good trip at least?

Nadia: Very. But home is better.

Peter: Well, you were missed a lot. [he would have gone, but he was working with the Sheriff on a case and Malia was entering her 7th month and he was on call when Isaac was at work to take care of his daughter]

Nadia: [smiles softly as she turns and presses a kiss to his chin] I missed you too.

Peter: [he shifted, letting her roll onto her back a bit, his hand not moving but he leaned over her to be able to kiss her better]

Nadia: [there's a small happy hum at that, not noticing his hand at first and just sinking slowly into the kiss]

Peter: [it's a nice, lazy morning kiss, and then he went to rest his head on her shoulder, nuzzling her neck happily]

Nadia: [there's another pleased noise, but she will take all the nuzzling] You're in a good mood.

Peter: I'm happy to have you home. [which he is, but he also gently caressed her stomach with his hand]

Nadia: [... okay, that time she notices. and she laughs softly, before pulling back to look at him] You cheater.

Peter: [he laughs, looking at her] Your scent changed, my dear. Pretty hard to hide that from me.

Nadia: Mmm-hmm. [still cheating.]

Peter: [always cheats when it's to his advantage. She should know that by now] Tell me when you found out. I want to hear about it all.

Nadia: [sighs as she turns to face him, so that he's not hovering over her] I suspected before I left, but I didn't get it confirmed until I saw my doctor in New York. It's about the size of a lime.

Peter: [yup, he's just beaming.] With the heartbeat of an express train.

Nadia: [she laughs a bit] Apparently. But it's pretty busy doing things like growing kidneys.

Peter: I'm sure. Luckily it's got us to protect it while it does all those long term projects.

Nadia: Mmm-hmmm. [nods a bit] It'll be just fine.

Peter: More than fine. Perfect. [he kissed her deeply, then pressed his forehead to her] Thank you.

Nadia: [she closes her eyes as he presses close, just sinking into him a bit, one hand wandering up to brush against his cheek] Just remind me that I should be happy about this when it's playing soccer with my kidneys.

Peter: Don't worry, I'll make sure I remind you every day.

Nadia: Good.

Peter: I love you. And I really, really did miss you.

Nadia: I love you too.

Peter: Can I make you something to eat for breakfast? Or would you rather way for brunch? [he smiles a bit, pulling her a bit closer]

Nadia: [she hums softly as she considers, settling against him for a moment] I'm good with you right where you are for right now.

Peter: [his hand leaves her stomach to come up and just gently trace along her face] Same here.

Nadia: [leans into his hand a bit before nodding] Good. So back to sleep.

Peter: [nods, shifting a bit to get comfortable, with her in his arms]

Nadia: [and she'll just curl up and pass right out again. between jetlag and everything else she is sleepy]

Peter: [and while he's not tired, just having her there pulls him back into a light sleep, letting himself just get absorbed in her scent]

Nadia: [good. stay. they can get food when she's more awake.]

Peter: [and it's a good thing the sheriff is off today, which means Peter is technically not on call, so he can sleep in unless Malia calls]

Nadia: [spend the day in bed you say? That sounds peachy.]

Peter: [though he will eventually need food. Because werewolf metabolisms and all]

Nadia: [you mean the food doesn't just magically come to them?]

Peter: [no, your boy toy needs to go and cook it for you, and then bring it up to you on a little tray. Because Peter is a dominate personality to everyone in the world but Nadia]

Nadia: [she appreciates and loves him for everything he does]
