39. MITCH MARNER | maple leafs

I sat up in the middle of the night and tried to get rid of another dizzy spell I was having. I grabbed my phone off of the night stand and checked the time. 2:43 a.m.

Mitch was peacefully sleeping beside me. I couldn't stop stirring, trying so hard to in order to allow Mitchy to keep sleeping. But the attempt failed me. For the past three weeks all I'd been doing is throwing up, having dizzy spells, and sleeping. So when I woke up again, I could tell that Mitch was very concerned.

"Another dizzy spell?" he asks me, nodding his head in my direction. I really don't want to speak, or I really can't speak, so I just nod my head.

He shoots up from the bed, calling, "I'm going to get you some water!" as he disappeared out of the bedroom. I relax a little bit, I don't want Auston to know about this. Me and Mitch didn't want Auston to have to deal with this as well, so we kept it quiet.

Now, you see, Auston is my big brother. He's always over protective over me, he's older than me by only four minutes. But he still acts like he's my guardian angel, and that gets a tad annoying every once in awhile.

After awhile, Mitch finally arrives back into the bedroom. "Here," he says as he comes over to me and hands me the glass. I take a little sip and he rubs my back. After that, I have one more dizzy spell and at that point, Mitch tells me, "We need to get you to a doctor, Y/N. This could be serious."

I nod my head, I know this could be serious. I just don't want this to be something very serious and me to not accept it. "Mitchy, I know this could be serious. I'm pretty sure everything is fine, but, if it makes you feel better, I'll do to the doctor tomorrow morning."

"I'll skip practice to come with you."

"No, Mitch, please don't do that."

"Y/F/N, I, Mitchell Marner, am supposed to protect you. So therefore I am skipping morning practice in order to come with you."

"What are you going to tell Aus?"

He pauses for a bit, "I will figure it out eventually. Now get some sleep."

"Y/N, are you ready to go?" Mitchell asks me. Ever since last night, Mitch has been keeping a close eye on me. He also wanted to get me into the doctor as soon as possible. I was elated to have a boyfriend like Marner, I knew I could count on him whenever I needed it.

"Yeah, just give me a sec!" I yell back, responding to Mitch.

I swear I could here Mitch sigh, he wanted to know what was wrong. He wanted to know if I had something serious like cancer, or if it was just something that would pass over time. Once again, Mitch would do anything for me.

I finish putting on my London Knights sweatshirt, one that Mitch had gotten for me when he got drafted there. It was one of my favorites, I would never let it go. I knew that I would pass it on to future generations in the family, just to remind Mitch and I of that happy moment when he was drafted.

"You good?" Mitch asks me, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Yep, let's go."

"Well, the good news is, is that it's nothing serious." the doctor tells us. I couldn't believe it.

"What? Wait, how is this possible? I've been having dizzy spells, I've been throwing up, I can barely stand up on my own! How is this completely fine?!"

"Miss Y/L/N, can't you see?! You're pregnant!" she exclaims.

Mitch's face immediately lights up, yet I'm still in shock. I mean, I'm happy, but, is this actually happening?

"We're going to be parents?!" I ask Mitch.

"We're going to be parents!"

Yes! Mitch and I will be parents!

But, how am I going to explain this to Auston? Okay, that doesn't matter now, we're going to be mom and dad.
"Hey, Mitch?"

"Yeah?"

"Mitchell fucking Marner, I love you to a point beyond where words can express."

"Shhh Y/N, don't curse in front of the baby!"
