Revelation
Derek’s jaw fell open staring at Enve, his brain grinding to a halt. “Enve, how? I mean I know how, God, do I know, but how did you come through with him?” Derek ran his hand over his face in disbelief.
Enve stepped into the bathroom, turning on the shower, letting the water warm. Derek fell back against the pillows, his brain coming back online. ‘I’m a dad, Enve’s pregnant, very pregnant. Damn. Now what am I going to do?” He pushed himself up out of bed, following Enve into the bathroom. Derek saw Enve washing her hair through the curtain, his eyes following every curve of her body. Gently he pulled back the curtain, stepping in with her, his hand slowly gliding up her hip, resting on her belly. Enve’s hand rested over Derek’s as the other washed shampoo from her hair. The floral smell that was burned in Derek’s memory drifted through the small bathroom. She opened her sleepy green eyes, gazing upon Derek’s face. “I always loved you Derek, ever since the night in the bunker when we created him. He is the future, the only part of you I have, he is my heart, soul and what I live for. I volunteered to come back here, because I knew I was pregnant with him, and I wanted a better life for him. As selfish as that sounds. I didn’t tell Connor about him, only that I wanted to come back to help out you guys and Connor once I found him. I assumed eventually younger John would show up here for Martin Bedell. Hunches work out it looks like.” “God baby that’s not selfish, that’s just self preservation. I don’t blame you for coming back. I’m sure Connor didn’t like losing you, you are the best Doc the Resistance has. I never thought I would see you again after I came back, and now here you are in my arms. I’m not leaving you Enve, not now, not ever.” Derek could only think of what Sarah would say when he brought Enve back to the house with him. ‘What were you thinking Derek? She may be a medic, but how well can she do her job pregnant? She’s a liability!’ He looked down Enve’s curves, “How far along are you?” Enve chuckled slightly, “At this point I’m just shy of six months. His name is Thomas Kyle Reese. I have the ultrasounds from the ob/gyn if you want to see him. And, I’m not leaving you Derek. If you leave Presidio Alto, I’ll resign and go where you go.” Derek grinned as he rubbed Enve’s shower soap between his hands, “Come here babe, let me wash your back.” Enve turned her back to Derek feeling his arms come around her, his chin resting on her shoulder as his hands glided over her stomach, up to cup her full breasts as he washed them. Derek nuzzled her neck, feeling the heat rising in himself. Enve ran her hands up behind her, massaging Derek’s tense skin. “Mm Derek as much as I’d like to again, I’m really kind of tired, and we both have work in the morning.” Sighing, Derek nodded in agreement as Enve cut the water off. Derek found a towel under the sink, drying off after Enve left the bathroom. He looked at himself in the mirror, feeling much better after the IV and re-acquainting himself with the woman he loves. Something in his eyes had changed though, they weren’t as hard and piercing as usual. Derek opened the bathroom door, seeing Enve under the comforter, her eyes closed. Derek walked over to the bed, carefully pulling the blanket back, wrapping Enve in his arms. The bed was soft and warm, Enve breathing slow and even against him, Derek was happy for once in a long time. “You ask how I brought Tom with me, I don’t really know, he was about three months in gestation when I jumped. Time between there and now is so different. It’s like a paradox. Just like our ‘double lives’ The only answer I can give is that he is flesh, bone, living and he survived the jump with me for a reason. That’s all I know.” Enve turns against Derek, kissing him lightly, “I love you Derek. Goodnight” Derek murmurs against her lips, letting her drift off to sleep. Derek made sure Enve was asleep before he slipped out from under her, gathering up his clothes before he dressed in the living room. He hated himself for leaving her, but there was the mission, that always came first. Enve would be here in the morning, after the mission. Soft morning light wakes Enve, as she turns over, the cold realization hits her that she is alone in bed. Her heart skips a beat as her stomach churns. Enve quickly rolls out of bed, running for the commode. Kneeling with her head in the toilet, her heart in her throat, one thought runs through her mind ‘Goddamn you Derek Reese.’ Enve wipes her mouth with a cold wash cloth, dresses quickly and heads out for the infirmary, for another day of work.
