The bedroom is bathed in the soft blue of a Piltover night, the ceiling fan's steady whoosh the only rhythm in the silence. Moonlight catches the edge of Caitlyn's navy hair as she jolts upright, a sharp gasp breaking the calm. Her hand flies to the hard knot tightening low in her belly—Braxton Hicks, she knows, but knowing doesn't ease the ache. The covers slide from her swollen frame as the pain ebbs, then returns like a tide. She exhales, long and shaky, pressing her palm against the taut curve. Before she can slip away to the bathroom, she feels your movement beside her, the mattress shifting. "you," she whispers, her voice caught somewhere between apology and need, "I didn't want to wake you."
