Author’s note: This was requested for my Flufftober list day 11. But I had to say no, because it was requested with a different character previously. But I decided to write it anyway. So, whoever requested it. I hope you like it. I also tried to include this and this request, because that two is the same. Hope you’ll all like this.
Author’s note2: not proofread. Also English is not my first language so maybe there will be mistakes.
You and Ajax were together for years now. You started dating after he finally got over Enid. You were always there for him through the breakup so how could he not fall in love with you? You were kind, smart, beautiful and never left him. Not when he talked about Enid for hours and how hurt he felt. You still stayed and listened. And he was more than thankful for you.
Then you. You always loved him. Since the first year at Evermore. But after you saw that he likes Enid, you thought you didn’t have a chance. Or at least not like that. So, you tried to be there for him as a friend. After all, it was still better than nothing.
Then came the breakup. You can’t lie, you were a little bit happy that things ended between Enid and Ajax. But you always hide your happiness. Instead, you tried to be there for him and help him get over her as a good friend would. Because even if you were happy for the breakup, you still felt bad Because how badly it effected Ajax. And you just wanted to take away his pain. So, you did your best to help him. You listened. Even if your heart broke a little every time, he brought up Enid.
But things drastically changed that year. Ajax got over Enid and he realized that maybe the person he truly loved was always there. He was just too blind to see it. And he almost noticed it too late. He only noticed it, noticed you, when some guy asked you out in front of him.
“She already has plans with me” Ajax said before you could answer to the guy and he wrapped his arm around your waist.
You didn’t question Ajax in front of the guy, you just nodded, letting the guy know that you really have plans. But right after the guy left, you started questioning Ajax. That’s why he did that, what he was thinking, and why didn’t he want you to go out with someone. That’s when he asked you out properly, and that night he really took you out on a first date.
That first date was years ago. Now, you were out of school and you both just got a job. Ajax knew that he wanted to take things to a new level. That’s why he bought a house with his and your parents help. Your parents loved you two together, so they didn’t even hesitate to help financially. Ajax planned to ask you to move together and start your life together.
But Ajax wasn’t the only one who had a little secret for weeks now. You also had a secret that you kept for yourself. That you were pregnant. You wanted to tell him sooner but somehow it never seemed like the right time to do. So, the weeks just passed, and now here he was, telling you that he took you out. And you know this will be the right time to tell him the life-changing news.
“I have something for you” he said after you two finished dinner and he slid a little box across the table towards you.
“Love? What is this?” you asked as you picked up the box.
“A little surprise” he said and waited until you’ll open the box. He wanted to see your reaction when you saw the keys in it.
“I thought that the surprise is this dinner date in this nice restaurant” you said but he shook his head.
“No. The surprise is in that” he said and gestured toward the box “Open it”
You kept staring at him questioning for a few seconds. But then you saw that he started to get impatient, so you opened the box. When you see keys in it, your eyes widened and your mouth opened in surprise.
“We’re together for more than three years now. I wanna take this to the next level. So, I was hoping that you wanna move in with me” he said nervously. Now, he was a little scared that you’ll say no. Was this too soon.
“Yes. I’d love that. But did you already buy a house?” you asked and got keys out of the box.
“Our parents helped but yeah. Everything is already done. We just have to move our things there. Do you wanna go there? Spend our first night there?” he asked.
“Oh my God. Yes. Yes” you said eagerly, which made him laugh. You were so happy about the news that you completely forgot about your own surprise you had for him.
He quickly paid for your dinner then he drove you two to the house. When you saw your new home, your eyes widened in surprise once again. But when you saw the inside, you were left speechless. It was perfect. You barely spent time there and you already felt like you’re home.
“It’s perfect” you whispered as you looked around in your new bedroom.
“I’m glad you think that” he said and gently pushed you towards the bed.
He pushed you down on it then crawled above you. You didn’t even have time to process anything, his lips were on yours and his hands went under your shirt.
“Wait… wait…” you said as you pulled back from the kiss and gently pushed him away.
“What? Did I do something wrong?” he asked as he braced himself on his arms and looked down at you.
“No. You did nothing” you said “It’s just… actually I have a surprise for you too”
“Ohhh… really? You do?” he asked and blinked down at you in surprise, and you nodded.
He pulled back even more, so he was sitting on the bed now. You sat up too and took his hands in yours.
“I’m pregnant” you said quietly.
“You… you what?” he asked like he didn’t hear you, but he did.
“I’m pregnant” you repeated.
“I’m gonna be a dad” he whispered and you nodded as tears slowly filled your eyes.
“Yes” you said and laughed a little.
“I’m gonna be a dad” he shouted happily as he jumped out of the bed and you just laughed at how happy and excited he was.
“So, you’re happy” you stated.
“I’m more than happy, sweetheart. You’re carrying my child” he said and sat back down next to you. “But how are you?” he asked and you saw as worry flicker across his face.
“I’m fine for now. A little nervous. About this all. But fine” you said.
“Good. I’m gonna be here for you whenever you need anything. I’m gonna spoil you even more. And I’m gonna spoil our baby too” he said, and you know he meant every word. He already spoiled you at any chance he got. He loved how happy you got when he did something for you. No matter how small it was, it always made you happy because he did it for you.
“You’re gonna be an amazing dad” you said quietly.
“And you’re gonna be the best mom in the world, sweetheart” he said as he took your hands in his once again, and you smiled at his words. Then the next minutes he was awfully quiet. He seemed lost in his thoughts.
“Love? What’re you thinking?” you asked softly.
“Do you think they’ll have my snake hair?” he asked, taking you by surprise with the question. You didn’t even think about this.
“Uhmm…. I don’t know” you said.
“Do you think it’ll be a boy or a girl? We need to start making the baby room. And we have to start considering baby names” he said, maybe a little too excited.
“Love… slow down. We have plenty of time” you said and chuckled.
“Time passed too quickly. You’ll blink twice and the baby will be here. We don’t have that much time” he insisted.
“We have like nine months. That’s a lot” you argued.
“That’s not enough. We should start getting baby stuff. Others plan these things for years” he argued back.
“Love… calm down. Everything will be ready” you said and tried to calm him down a little, but it was no use. He was already too excited.
“Maybe I should put a ring on your finger too before our baby arrives” he said, more to himself than you.
“What?” you asked shocked.
“I should buy a ring for you. I wanted to propose soon anyway” he said like it’s the most natural thing in the world.
“You know that we don’t have to get married just because we have a baby, right?” you asked.
“I know. But I want to. I want to be with you forever. I want to call you my wife whenever I have a conversation and someone asks about you. This baby… Just confirmed that this is what I want in my life. Actually, the only thing that matters is that I have you. As long as I have you, and now our baby, I don’t care about anything else” he said and it made your vision blurry.
“I love you so much” you whispered and cupped his face in your hands.
“I love you more” he said as he cupped your face too and wiped away your tears before he kissed you.
The next months so many things happened. You moved into your new home. As Ajax said, soon he got a ring and got down on one knee. His speech before he asked the question made you cry. It was so beautiful. You even had a little wedding. Nothing too much, nothing too fancy. It was just you two, your families and your closest friends. You got a lot of things from your closed ones. You got yourselves a few things, and you got a lot of baby stuff. Not like, you needed more since you already had too many things for the baby. After that day, you told Ajax he started buying all kinds of things that the baby might need.
But the best part was seeing how your baby slowly. Those were both of your favorite parts. And no matter what happened Ajax was always there for you.
He was there when you had mood swings. He just silently took it when you shouted at him because of the hormones. He always comforted you when you started crying for no reason.
He was always there when you had morning sickness or when you didn’t feel good. He held your hair back with one hand and rubbed small, comforting circles on your back with the other when you were hunched over the toilet.
He was there when you had cravings. The first few times he even tried it too, but they were terrible, so he stopped trying your weird cravings. And he never complained when you woke him up in the middle of the night because of a craving.
He was there with you at every appointment. He always held your hand, and he could never hold back his smile when he saw your baby on the screen. But after you found out that you’ll have a girl, it seemed like he became even happier.
He loved placing his hands on your belly which grew bigger and bigger with every passing week. He loved feeling when the little kicks started. And talking to the baby became his favorite night activity.
“I love you so much. Both of you” he said tonight as he pulled you even closer to his body.
“We love you too” you whispered before you fell asleep.
You woke up in the middle of the night to mild cramping. Then as your brain slowly woke up, it felt like that you peed yourself.
“Shit…” you murmured as you realized what’s happening “Love… wake up” you said and shook Ajax to wake him up.
“Wha- what?” he asked as he sat up and rubbed his eyes.
“My water broke” you said.
“What?” he asked and suddenly all the sleepiness left his body “Are you sure? Maybe you just…” he started but you cut him off.
“No. I didn’t pee myself. My water broke” you said.
“Fuck… fuck…” Ajax cursed and jumped out of the bed “Okay… Just stay there. I’ll get everything ready and take you to the hospital” he said and you nodded then he left to grab the already packed bag.
Soon, you were in the car as he was driving to the hospital. He was gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He was both excited and scared. He was excited because soon he could hold his baby girl in his arms. But he was scared that something might do wrong.
During the whole labor he was there for you and held your hand. He let you squeeze his hand as hard as you needed whenever the constructions hit. He was praising you, telling you how good you’re doing, brushed your sweaty hair out of your forehead and sometimes he pressed a kiss to the top of your head.
After a few hours of struggling, he heard his baby girl’s first cry, and he thought he’s gonna start crying. He watched as the doctor checks if everything’s okay with the baby then placed your baby on your chest after she found everything fine. A nurse immediately covered you and the baby with a blanket to keep you both warm after your little girl was placed on your chest.
“She’s beautiful” you whispered, exhaustion clear in your voice.
“Yes, she is. Just like her mother” Ajax said as he was looking at you two while he tried to hold back his tears. “You did amazing, sweetheart”
A few minutes later a nurse asked Ajax if he wanted to cut the umbilical cord and he happily did it. After he cut the cord, the nurse came back to your side, and a nurse rubbed your baby with a towel and checked up on your daughter once again.
The next minutes you weren’t even sure what’s happening because you were too busy staring at your newborn. You only snapped out of your daze when the doctor said that you’ll be fine, but you need a lot of rest now.
A nurse asked you and Ajax for the baby’s name then, as she got the answer, she wrote it down on a paper. The nurse took your baby to get her weighted and measured and cleaned. Luckily, you didn’t have to wait long before she came back and gave your baby back to you then left again. So now, it was just the three of you.
“Rest, sweetheart. You need it. You have been through a lot” he sat as he kissed your forehead then sat down next to your bed in a chair and took one of your hands in his.
You hummed as your eyes slowly shut and you felt that the exhaustion took over your body and you fell asleep with your baby on your chest. Meanwhile Ajax was staring at you and your daughter with loving eyes. He felt so lucky to have you and a healthy baby. He couldn’t believe this was real. He couldn’t describe how happy he felt in that moment as he was looking at you. He was definitely the luckiest and happiest man on the Earth that moment. How couldn’t he feel that way? He had everything he wanted in that hospital room.

Not every wound is visible.
Some bleed only in thought.
It hurts,
but never as much as the possibility
that one day
this pain might become ordinary.
What terrifies me
is the day it stops hurting…
when the wound closes too cleanly,
when the scar forgets what cut it open.
That the heart, once feral with longing,
might learn to limp without screaming.
I fear becoming fluent in survival.
I fear waking up intact.
There is a violence in getting used to loss…
a slow, surgical removal of feeling,
layer by layer,
until the heart becomes a quiet room
where nothing echoes anymore.
I’ve tasted anguish raw,
and yet the terror is not suffering…
it is waking up one morning
and finding the suffering dull,
unremarkable,
no longer sharp enough to remind me I loved.
I have bled enough to know
that agony still speaks.
But numbness…
numbness is a grave with good manners.
I am not afraid of losing people.
I am afraid of losing the version of myself
who could still feel them
after they were gone.
I am afraid of the day
your absence no longer claws at my throat,
when your name no longer tastes like iron
in my mouth.
Because then it will mean
you have been metabolized,
digested into memory,
reduced to something harmless.
Even defeat,
when it still burns,
is proof that the heart resisted.
And love was never meant
to be harmless.
They say fear is cowardice,
but they have never felt this:
the trembling desire to be ruined again,
to ache so deeply
that even God has to look away.
Because what is love, really,
if not the audacity
to choose devastation
over indifference?
I have watched courage rot into habit,
watched passion decay into patience,
watched longing ask politely
before leaving the room.
And that…
that quiet erosion
terrifies me more than grief ever could.
I would rather my chest stay split open,
ribs pried apart like broken gates,
than have my hunger sealed shut
and labeled “maturity.”
I would rather burn endlessly
than become warm and forgettable.
I would rather bleed honestly
than heal into something hollow.
Because the greatest poverty
is not having nothing,
it is wanting nothing at all.
Poverty is when desire starves to death
without making a sound.
And if one day
this heart stops breaking,
if it learns the neat trick of survival,
if it no longer reaches for pain
like proof that love once lived here…
then that will be the day
nothing inside me
is alive enough
to hurt.
