Chapter Text

Mayas POV

 

 

 

I’ve been getting a lot of help lately with my mental health.. I’ve been dealing with a lot, I had a lot on my plate and I didn’t want to start the process with problems on my shoulder…. I’m okay to do this alone… I don’t need Adrian or Carina but I know well enough that I need to tell Carina because she’s an OB

 

I’m on my way to Adrian’s house to clear the air properly, she’s been a little distant lately because she thinks I’m going to take the kids from her but I’m not…. She’s a great parent to them and they love her so much! Why would I take that from her? When I knock she’s on a call

 

“No bail!- Maya?!” She hangs up straight away and I just smirk at her

 

“Who you on call with” I wink at her and she rolls her eyes opening the door more for me

 

“No one as important as you Maya” she smiles that beautiful smile at me and I breathe her in….. I do love her so much

 

“So…… who’s getting bailed out?” I ask and she shakes her head

 

“No one important, please sit! What can I help you with?” I hold her hand and she kisses them

 

“I love you Adrian…. And I know you think I’m taking the kids from you but I’m not… you’re great at what you do and they love you! Im not taking them away from you and handing them over to Carina” she sighs into my hands

 

“Im sorry…. You run to her a lot and I know I stuffed up but I don’t get them as often anymore…. I wanted to take them out the last time I came over but they were going to Carinas… when I planned to call Dee to ask if she had them on her usual day she said no and that they’re with Nali but then Nali was with Rose so I knew Carina had them…. I wanted to take you all out is all and I’m sorry if I’m acting out” I touch her face

 

“I’m sorry we were never home… you could’ve called me Addy” she kisses my palm holding my hands again

 

“I didn’t want to take family time away from you or her” I nod

 

“Thank you for respecting our space…. We’re actually going shopping after this if you’d like to join?” I ask her and she nods

 

“Sure… I’d also love to cook a meal for this beautiful family tonight?” I accept this dinner date and bring the kids over that night! She makes us a yummy quiche lorraine! Something the kids love and myself and we eat it….

 

Once the kids are done they fall asleep on the couch and Adrian pours me a glass of wine

 

“Thank you”

 

“You’re welcome Maya” she rests Masons head on her lap and he rolls over spreading out on her “so does Carina know you’re here?” She asks and I shake my head

 

“No, she’s at her home probably pulling Nalis hair out” she laughs at my dry attempt to joke

 

“I love you Maya and I did think you were taking the kids away from me… I know they’re not mine and I know I don’t get a say, that Carina is their mother and what she says go but I just….. I love you so much and I love them, you’re all I got and I love what I have with them you know?” I sip my wine and sit it on the coffee table

 

“I know… but you were there for me and my kids, you stepped up to be there for them Addy and I love you for that! You knew well they were never your kids but you treat them like they’re your own… They love and respect you, yes Ford has his moments and just wants to eat your radio but I know he loves you too” she laughs at me

 

“That little menace! Better than a shoe I guess…. I’d be crying if he ate my shoes” now I’m the one laughing at her

 

“Come around whenever you want Addy…. You don’t need to ask but I must draw a line…. No more flowers…. No more gifts..” she nods smirking

 

 

 

 

Lately though I’ve been leaning towards Adrian, Carina hasn’t really been over and that damn phone needs to come out of Adrian’s hands! She’s always on it! Someone should be behind bars but nope! Here she is arguing with someone on the phone about it

 

“Who’s got no ears?” I smirk at her and she sighs a stressful one

 

“Someone was released…. I’ve been trying to get her back behind bars again but I just can’t…. She’s been cooperating with us”

 

“Isn’t that a good thing?” I lean closer running my fingers through her hair and she leans into my touch ‘cute’

 

“Yes but she was released for bad reasons…. Early!!” I nod at her

 

“Then just wait it out” I stand leaving her house and she kisses my head

 

“Will you be alright tomorrow?”

 

“Yes Nali is coming over to watch the kids, I don’t know why Carina hasn’t been over but Nalis coming so I’ll be able to work” she nods kissing my head again and I leave

 

 

 

Instead of Nali knocking on the door Carina stands there ‘where the hell has she been?!’ I yell in my head but seconds later it ends up coming out my mouth anyways, as I make my way to work Adrian is at my office door with a container

 

“Thank you?” She gives it to me

 

“You’re welcome Maya! Enjoy your day today and stay safe” I nod at her and she leaves

 

“Soooo…. Are we having a baby??” Vic asks and I smirk at her

 

“We will find out” I wink at her and she gets so excited

 

“Are we going to tell them? Carina or Adrian?”

 

“Not yet…. I’ll have to tell Carina though because… well her job… it’s her job to know” she nods

 

“I wonder how they’ll both take it you know? Adrian’s first ever pregnancy and Carinas second yet her overprotectiveness will kick in….. at least Carina can run away from your hormones oh and we can watch them fight over your libido!!” I roll my eyes at her

 

“No!”

 

“You can have both!?! Threesome?!!!!”

 

“Vic be quiet I don’t want to talk to you anymore!” She laughs at me and follows me everywhere

 

Hours pass and we’re at a scene, small kitchen fire so we’re back within minutes, once I get back though I see my missed call and ring my family…. Im going to the apartment once I’m finish my shift

 

When we get to a scene I couldn’t hold my laugh… two couples are cuffed to their beds and they can’t find the key, we try looking everywhere for them and there’s a little menace running around the house jumping all over them, the owner of the house tries to tell us to watch our steps but the dog runs around in the house with baby powder in his mouth and it gets everywhere!! The dog runs into Vic pushing her back and she stands on something, it takes a while but the second it goes off, Vic faces it and now the room is covered in glitter

 

I couldn’t hold my laugh in that time! Vic is covered head to toes in glitter

 

“Keep laughing Maya I’m going to kick your ass when we get back to the station” when we finally find the key we take our leave and head straight to the station and she does kick my ass when we out

 

“Hey!” I hold my ass

 

“I said I was going to kick your ass!” She walks away angry and I continue to laugh at her

 

“I’m calling Carina!”

 

“Ugh I don’t care!” She walks off laughing

 

 

 

 

A month later Adrians been on phone call after phone call, she walks into the house asking questions after questions and we hangout for a bit…. But when she asked if I’ve ever wanted Carina while we were on a break I knew I couldn’t hide the truth from her so I told her the truth! That I slept with Carina

 

She was very pissed off and so was I but I didn’t regret it! And when Carina walked into the house… I was in shock! Speak of the devil

 

Once she left though Adrian is the one that brought in the flowers handing it to me, saying she found them outside on the step and I told her to just calm down and breathe and she does

 

I remind her that I’m not with her or looking for anything right now, I’m on my own and she just breathes and I know which part hurt her, we were on a break and I cheated on her with my ex wife! That would hurt me too and the worst part is that Adrian understood and still wanted me…. She still wants me like the way I stayed after knowing Carina cheated on me, I’m so confused with my feelings

 

 

Couple days later though at work I’m about to pee on a stick

 

“Vic… stand back I’m closing the door”

 

“No leave it open” I fold my arms and Andy laughs at her

 

"I’m peeing on this stick! Step back now!” She rolls her eyes stepping back and I sigh

 

While we wait though we talk

 

“Whos allowed to know?” Andy asks and I sigh

 

“Rose! That’s it I hope! And I’m going to make sure she doesn’t tell Nali or Carina” Andy nods then Vic asks

 

“What about your two women you’re in love with?” I run my fingers through my hair

 

“I’ll tell them one day…. When I get through my first trimester” Vic nods at me and my timer goes off

 

“Can you check Andy” I grip Vics hands tight and we both wait for the results

 

“You’re pregnant Maya…. Congratulations” I cry my eyes out thanking anyone and everyone for this chance and to hope and pray I can keep this chance! First few days I avoid Rose but end up telling her anyways at her house, no point keeping it from her she lives down the road and she’s an OB too that’s in my house almost everyday

 

“How long?!”

 

“3 weeks or so… I’m planning on telling everyone next week or week 5 to be sure but I’m so excited!!” She jumps for joy then covers her mouth kicking me out saying she has a surgery coming up and I wish her a good day!

 

While I’m on shift though at work I get a phone call from their school, Bella had an upset stomach so Adrian picked them up and took them home and I’m grateful to her!

 

“You okay now Bella?”

 

“Yes mommy! I fink I just eat something!” I nod through the phone

 

“I’ll be home very soon!! You’ll see me very soon baby!” She smiles at me

 

“Where’s Dimples?”

 

“I have to go back for him, she’s sleeping in the car” I check Adrian out

 

“You look very sexy in uniform I must say sergeant Monet” she smirks at me

 

“I’d think you’re flirting with me Captain Bishop” I laugh at her

 

“I might be?” We chat a little bit more and I hang up getting ready to leave, when I open the door though I would never ever expect to see Carina and Adrian having a civil conversation on their own

 

Some would think they’ve become friends and they way they were in sync made it even funnier

 

“So… what’s up with Adrian and Carina having a private conversation at the door” everyone laughs at me and when I turn around they’re whispering at each other, Nali stands and Carina comments making her sit back down

 

“You good Nali?” She looks at me and smiles

 

“Ants in my pants” I laugh at her

 

“Well since some of you are here I may as well tell you all….. and I need to tell my babies as well….” I pick them both up sitting them on a stool each

 

“Mommy is pregnant…. Mommy is having a baby and she’s ready to tell Carina and Adrian” the kids jump for joy and everyone’s surprised

 

“No one’s going to ask how far along” they look at each other and Andrews the first to ask

 

“Well you going to tell us?!” I glare at Rose

 

“You already told them?!”

 

“How would you even know if they knew?! I didn’t”

 

“Because Nali can’t keeps secrets!!” I point at Nali and everyone looks at her watching her stuff her mouth and we all laugh at her

 

“Mommy is going to change, I need a shower” the kids follow and I hear whispering upstairs, when I turn the corner though it’s so awkward….. they’re hugging?!

 

“It’s…. my dad, he’s not well” and I knew that feeling she felt when it came to her father, he’s the only one that loves her for her and will give her anything and everything he wants behind her mothers back

 

When Carina takes the kids downstairs I talk to her

 

“So I have some exciting news and I want to share it with you” she holds my hands

 

“I’m pregnant…. And I’d love for you to be apart of this journey with us…. I haven’t told Carina yet but I’d like to tell you before I tell her” Adrian starts crying and I cry with her

 

“Hey?! Why you crying?” I hold her face

 

“Maya I stuffed up bad…. Real bad!! The phone calls have been because I released Ava” I stare at her so hurt and in shock

 

“You what?!” I step back from her and she cries

 

“I’m sorry…. I was so hurt when Carina was around and I thought you chose her over me!” There’s a knock at the door

 

“I was scared you’d leave me for her and that I’d never see them again so I got her out early trying to find ways to get rid of Carina faster! I’m so sorry I’ve been trying to fix this! I will fix th-“ I hear a gunshot and Adrian grabs me wiping her eyes clear

 

“My babies are down there!!” I scream

 

“CARINA!! RUN!”

 

Once I step out on the step someone fires at me and I scream out, Adrian grabs me pulling me to the ground protecting me

 

“Maya!! Stay down!!”

 

I start panicking

 

“Addy-“

 

“They’re safe! I know they are! Trust Carina”

 

Once we hear struggling Adrian jumps up running down the stairs

 

‘Carinas still in the house?!’ Once I stand I see Ava Jones pointing a gun at Nalis bleeding face holding her by the throat, Nalis shoulder is bleeding! She’s been shot

 

“Hi Maya…… officer Monet thank you so much for releasing me” she smirks bleeding herself and when she looks down at Nali I freeze

 

“I’ve never met you! It’s so lovely to meet you?? I’m sorry what’s your name?”

 

“It’s Sergeant Monet and my names suck my toes” Ava hits her in the face again and when I step down one step she points it at me

 

“Step closer Maya I’ll put another hole in your leg!” A knife is thrown and it cuts Ava’s leg and she screams in pain, Adrian walks down and she goes round after round shooting Adrian in the chest and one in her leg and when she cries out falling to the ground I stand back hiding

 

“Carina I know you’re still in here”

 

“Adrian!! Addy!”

 

“She’s still alive Maya don’t cry! And you!” I hear a body go limp and Ava starts shooting at Carina

 

I crawl to Adrian on the steps

 

“Addy!? I Addy please wake up!” Nali wakes first holding her arm in so much pain and Adrian sits up inhaling sharply

 

“Fuck that hurts!!” She takes her vest off putting it on me

 

“Where’s your gun Adrian!” Nali asks

 

“In the car! Maya leave this on! Don’t ever take it off okay?!” I stand taking off downstairs and I hear her reload

 

“How many rounds in a 9mm handgun??” Nali asks

 

“Depending on size and model it either has 12 to 15” she stands up

 

“She’s just reloaded and I heard 12 go off, she has one more magazine on her hip! I was making sure I didn’t miss count” she picks up the knife Carina threw and walks towards the noise and I try the door but it’s locked

 

“What the fuck!!”

 

“She has my keys” Nali replies, rounds start coming towards us and I hear Nali counting

 

“You have 8 more Ava Jones”

 

“You’re going to piss her off!!” I get angry at Nali

 

“That’s the whole point Maya! She’ll use them a lot quicker” another 2 shots

 

“That’s 6!” She smirks

 

“Carina!!” I yell in tears

 

“Maya stay down!” Carina yells! Ava shoots at the kitchen where Carina must be hiding and when Nali tackles Ava, she shoots her in the arm again

 

“Nooo!!” I stand tackling Ava off Nali and I hit her square in the face, she points the gun behind me and fires, I hear Adrian drop and that makes me hit her harder, she hits me in the head with the gun rolling me over and straddling me, she loads quick hitting me in the jaw with it and when I see Carina stand I hit Ava’s arm making her shoot up giving Carina time to get back down

 

She shoots the corner of the bench 6 times ‘count Maya! Stay counting! She’s on her last mag she has 6 more

 

She stands grabbing me by the throat

 

“Get up Maya! Now!” I choke as she forces me to stand and she holds us in a corner with the gun to my head

 

“Carina…. Come out sweetheart” when Carina doesn’t stand I cry, I worry she might already be dead but then she shoots the bench twice ‘7, 8’

 

“Stand up Carina or I’ll shoot Maya right here!” Carina stands so quick and I cry

 

“Please get back down” she shakes her head and Ava holds me by my hair pulling my head back

 

“Did I ask you to speak up Maya?!” I groan in pain

 

“Ouch ouch!!”

 

“Ava let her go! Please let her go” Carina begs

 

“You see Carina…. All those years chasing me and here you are” she smirks and Adrian groans in pain

 

“You be quiet Officer Monet” she shoots next to her and I pull my head to see

 

“Addy!” ‘That’s 9! 3 more’ she pulls my hair back again

 

“It’s sergeant Monet”

 

“Carina stop it please!” Ava shoots at Carina and I see her duck ‘That’s 10! 2 more’

 

Carina peeks over at Nali and she’s unconscious in a pool of her own blood, I see tears run down her face and Ava comments

 

“She started it Carina don’t cry about it”

 

“She’s bleeding out Ava let me help her please!” Carina begs

 

“No!”

 

“Please!!” She begs balling her eyes out

 

“I said no Carina! Stand over there!” I hear metal slide across the floor behind us and Carina comes out away from the kitchen

 

“Carina please don’t-“ Ava hits me in the face and I cry out in pain

 

“Ava!!! Don’t fucking hurt her!!” Carina growls through her teeth

 

“Sweetheart it’s a little too late for that! I hope you enjoyed your chase, I’d love to say that it was fun but it wasn’t….. you were a great fuck” Ava points the gun at her

 

“You talk too much” Carina stares passed us

 

‘Nali! She’s alive’

 

“And you’re next suck my toes” she sends kisses her way

 

“Yuck! Wash your mouth!”

 

“Nali be quiet!!” Carina growls

 

“No!”

 

“Okay I’m bored” Ava grabs me by the throat “say bye bye Maya” she leans her face on mine and leans back shooting Nali

 

“No!!” Carina screams

 

Ava points the gun at Carina

 

“Carin-“

 

“Close your eyes Maya”

 

“N-no! No no I love you! Ava please”

 

When the gun goes off I close my eyes and the gun clicks

 

“No!!” When I open my eyes Adrian is standing in front of me and Nali tackles Ava, the sliding door glass smashes and she cuffs her with Adrian’s cuff using her last bit of energy

 

“Addy? Addy no! Nooo no Addy!?” She falls back on Carina and she catches her putting her on the ground

 

“I love you Maya”

 

“Nooo!!” I put pressure on her wounds, she’s been shot right in her chest

 

“Carina I’m so sorry! I’m sorry Maya!”

 

“You’re an idiot Adrian!” Carinas pissed off at her

 

“Thank you” she starts coughing and Carina panics staring behind

 

“Nali?” When we look over she isn’t moving, she lays still next to Ava’s unconscious body

 

“Nali!” She climbs out away from Adrian to Nali

 

“Addy please! Carina!!” Carinas crouched down next to Nali doing CPR

 

“Take care of our babies Maya”

 

“Please be quiet Addy! Save your breath please! Please I love you! I love you Addy!” Her eyes close and I shake my head balling my eyes out

 

“Addy why!!?”

 

“She belongs to your heart Maya, she is your other half and I was not going to let you lose that” I shake

 

“I-I love you and I want to thank you for this beautiful life you gave me! The best year of my life was with you Maya” she pulls her chain off her neck couching out blood and 19 comes kicking the door down no uniform with paramedics and Adrian’s team

 

“Take this Maya!! Please have it” ‘it’s the ring she proposed to me with!’ I take it crying and Adrian stops breathing, her hands go limp and I cry into her chest

 

“Nooooo!!” I cry out in so much pain and grief! And the last thing I remember is getting thrown off Adrian’s limp body

 

 

Hours later I wake up in a hospital bed alone…. Where is everyone?! My kids!!? When I sit up I’m drowsy and I feel drunk! I pull the cords off of my hands and skin trying to leave the room

 

“Maya get back in the bed” I hear Carina

 

“No! My kids” I look behind me and Carinas been restrained……

 

I fall over too drowsy and I crawl back on the bed

 

“Rose and Andrea have them, they ran it to her house calling the cops but Adrian’s radio was already active and on”

 

“What’s wrong with me?” I ask and Carina pulls hard, I hear the leather of the strap

 

“Maya! You okay?!” Then it hits me! Adrian

 

“Addy!? Where’s Addy?!” I sit up again but nurses come in

 

“Maya you need to sit back on the bed” and I do as I’m told but everyone touches me and I get very uncomfortable and start to panic

 

“Where’s my kids?? Where’s Addy?! What happened to Addy and Nali?!” I hear Carina pulling at her restraints again and everyone’s attention goes to her

 

“You’re on your last warning Deluca! No more!” One of the nurses point at her and she growls through her gritted teeth

 

“Get! Your! Hands! Off! Her!” Everyone let’s go of me and I sigh in relief

 

Once everyone looks me over and hooks me back up they all leave and I lean over releasing Carina

 

“You could get in trouble for doing that” she rubs her wrist and I shrug

 

“What do you know?” She sighs

 

“I know nothing! I was restrained because I wouldn’t cooperate, I needed to know where you were or what they were doing with you! I lost my cool and they sedated me and put me in restraints, I know that Adrian suffered a punctured lung and that she’s in surgery but I-“ she starts crying wiping her tears

 

“I don’t know where Nali is! She lost so much blood I don’t know what’s…. I don’t know what’s happening or where she is! I don’t even know if she’s alive” she sits up balling her eyes out and I feel so sorry for her, I climb into her bed dragging all my cords with me and we hug each other

 

‘She is my other half! She’s my half and I almost lost my half….’ I sigh into her and she hugs me tight because we know well that someone is dying tonight and we will need each other more than we think…. Can we get through this together though?
