His automatic response was blind terror, but he gave the matter some serious thought. "I'd probably panic nonstop for the next nine months, watch you like a hawk, dump Clara with all our casework, and interrogate everyone I know who has kids." He played with her hair, stroking it back behind her ear. "But it wouldn't be awful."

She had to smirk a little at that. "Sebastian, I wouldn't be the first woman in the world to have a baby. There'd be no reason to panic." She kissed him lightly, then pulled back, brow quirked, vaguely amused. "You do realize that you'd have to marry me at that point. Otherwise the next case Clara and Risk will be investigating will be your murder, with my father as the main suspect."

He chuckled at that. "Don't get me wrong, your father is a scary man...but if I marry you, it'll be 'cause I'm in love with you." He gazed into her eyes, stroking her cheek. "Which I am. So...maybe we should."

She bit her lip, searching his eyes. "You--you don't have to, Sebastian. I--I won't force you into marriage if you don't want it..."

"You couldn't," he assured her. "I'd talk you out of it. I'd try to convince you it was a terrible idea...you know I'd find a way." He picked up her left hand and examined it thoughtfully.

She chewed on her lip, watching him. "You're not as good as talking me in and out of things as you used to be. If anything, I've talked you into one or two things over the years." She curled her fingers around his.
((Also...I'm officially OBSESSED!))

((Hehe! With this thread?))
"This is true. But maybe I'm just saving up my powers for something big," he said with a smirk, setting her hand down and pulling her against him. Serious discussions aside, he was home in bed with his girl having a lazy evening after some really good, slightly irresponsible sex, and he wanted to cuddle, damn it.

((Yup! I kind of like that This post is #2008)) She was more than willing to give him what he wanted, moving to face him, one arm sliding around his middle, the other tucked safely between their chests. "Well, whatever it is, it better be good." She tilted her face up at him, kissing him gently. "I love you, Sebastian. I've loved you since the very beginning."

((Three more and you'll match the year!))
He kissed her back, his hand cupped around her neck. "I love you too, Maggie. More than anything." And he always had, though the beginning wasn't really something he liked to think about. It was a huge part of the reason it was still so hard for him to believe that she wanted to be with him, or that he deserved to be. "We should get some sleep," he said, looking away from her and smiling to himself. Because he was maybe, just maybe, working on a plan.
((Bedtime for me as well! <3))

((Night!))
Her insides melted at his words and she smiled, nodding. She leaned away to pull the cord on the lamp by the bed, then curled back against him. "Hold me a while? Until I fall asleep?" She snuggled against his chest, pressing kisses against his neck, clueless to whatever was going on in his head.

He smiled and wrapped his arms around her, cradling her against him and kissing her hair. Six years ago, he never could've imagined he'd be this happy. With Maggie in his arms and a brilliant, non-diabolical plan in his head, he drifted off to sleep.

It was three days later, and Maggie was sitting at the kitchen table, paperwork spread around her as she tried to make heads or tails of all the legal mumbo jumbo that came with buying a bakery. She cursed the face that Mrs. Ingrid son-in-law was a lawyer.

Goblin let himself in the front door and smiled when he found Maggie in the kitchen. It was, in fact, exactly where he'd hoped to find her. "How's it going?" he asked casually, shooing one of the cats out of the room and looking over her shoulder at the papers.

She grumbled. "So, remember how I went and talked to Mrs. Ingrid the other day? She was perfectly nice and reasonable about selling us the building for a perfectly nice and reasonable price. And then her son-in-law got involved and I want to punch his face."

He raised an eyebrow and sat down across from her. "All right, tell it from the top."
