Chapter 9: I'm Pregnant

"No, nope, I refuse to believe it." Ace had his hands over his ears as I followed him through our new safe apartment.

"Come on, Macenth." I used his full name, not that it was going to help my case since it pisses him off when I say it.

"I'm disagreeing even more just for that," He said over his shoulder as we turned into the kitchen.

"I've been with you on plenty of missions," I reasoned.

"Which is why I don't want you going on one without me." He began scrounging through the fridge as I took a seat on by the kitchen island.

I leaned my chin on my palm, "You forget that I was an agent long before I knew you."

"Yes but this might well be the your most important mission of the year!" Ace took out 2 yogurts and handed one to me, "Which is why I wanna be there with you."

"You're leading the A.I.Ts on their first assessment tomorrow morning and I'm leaving for New York tonight," I spooned the food into my mouth, "Besides, Theo will be there with me, it'll be fine."

"You off on another mission with a guy that isn't me?" He rolled his eyes, "Gee, why didn't you say so, I would've agreed earlier."

I narrowed my eyes at him, "Sarcasm isn't a good look on you."

"Baby, everything looks good on me."

"I hate you."

"I love you too!" He cooed back.

I folded my arms and glared at him.

He sighed, "I want to be there for you, Cupcake. I know how much catching Turns means to you and I should be there if the mission ends up being a bust."

I bit the inside of my cheek, turning his words over in my head.

"She plays dirty," He carried on, "I don't know what I'd do if I lost you again. That would be 2 times this week, how much do you think I can take?"

"You're being overdramatic," I rolled my eyes, "I can take care of myself just fine plus Theo is basically trained to stop me from doing anything stupid and there's also the tracking devices on the new uniforms for missions which will be our last resort if something does happen... which is still unlikely."

"Will you at least call me when you land so I know you survived the first 12 hours without me?"

I chuckled, "Of course, god knows you have no idea what to do when I'm gone."

"No, no I think it's the other way round." His eyes followed me as I threw away our yogurt pots.

"Yeah, whatever you say, pretty boy." I shrugged and started walking to the bedroom.

"Now wait a second," He trailed after me.

"There's nothing to argue about, it's true." I made a face at him as soon as I got to the door.

There was a moment of silence before I burst out laughing as he tackled me onto the bed.

"Lloyd, you better not have screwed up the flight times," I spoke into burner phone as I leaned against the private car we used to get here.

"I didn't, I didn't!" His voice crackled through, "The jet will be ready in a sec, I promise!"

"It better be." My voice was threatening as I hung up the call

Just then, I watched as my chauffeur finished talking to one of the staff members and made his way back to me.

"The private jet is ready, Commander," He informed me, "I will be escorting you there now."
