Pierre and George had only been mated for two months when George started feeling off. He was tired and nauseous just about all the time, was getting random back pains (that weren’t related to racing), and overall, just wasn’t feeling like himself. He thought he was hiding it well, but he should’ve known that there were few people he could fool and one of those was his best friend, Alex. So, when the two met up before the race like that often did Alex immediately knew that there was something up with George.
“George, is there something wrong? And don’t tell me no because I know there is.”
“I honestly don’t know. I just haven’t been feeling like myself for last little bit, but I don’t know what’s wrong with me.”
“Is everything with Pierre good?”
“Yeah. Everything since our mating has been going great.” George knew Alex didn’t mean anything bed by his statement, was just being a curious friend looking out of the wellbeing of his best friend. If Alex though that Pierre wasn’t a good alpha for his friend, he never would have approved of their mating.
“Could it be possible that you’re pregnant?”
“Alex, what?”
“I was just asking. Omegas are very fertile when they get mated during a heat, so I was just asking.”
“I mean I don’t think so. I haven’t taken a test of anything. But could it really be that?”
“I wouldn’t rule it out until you took one.” Alex could tell that George had too on his mind to be good company so the two parted ways. George couldn’t stop thinking about what Alex said, could he really be pregnant. He figured he’s never know the answer until he took a test, so he made an appointment with the team doctor for later that day. Just a few hours later George was leaving the clinic was the news that he was pregnant. He needed to tell someone and decided the best course of action was barging his way into Alpine to find his mate. He found Esteban first, sitting with his mate Lance at the front of the Alpine hospitality.
“Hey George. How are you?” Esteban said, waving at the omega.
“Fine. Where’s Pierre?”
“Pretty sure he’s still in his driver’s room. He said something about changing and coming to find you. He hasn’t left yet so I’m assuming he’s still there.”
“Thanks.” George wasn’t trying to be rude, but he really needed to talk to Pierre. George left the two and made his way to Pierre’s drivers room. He knocked once on the door before pushing his way into the room. Pierre was half dressed and seemed startled that someone just barged tehir way into his room, but seemed to relax when he saw it was just his mate.
“Hey Georgie. I was just getting ready to come find you.”
“What would you say if I was pregnant?” George decided that there was no time to run around and decided to cut right to the chase.
“What? Are you being serious or funny right now?”
“Serious, very serious. Just left the clinic and confirmed it.”
“Georgie, that’s amazing. You’re amazing. I love you so much.” Pierre brought the omega into his arms. George felt any tension in his body escape, Pierre’s approval all that he needed to finally accept this.
“I love you too Pierre. I can’t believe I get to do this with you. We’re going to have a baby. A baby, I’m growing a baby inside me.”
“Mon amour, you’re amazing. I can’t believe that we’re going to have a pup.”
“What am I going to do? I’m supposed to be getting in a car tomorrow and driving. I can’t drive, can I? Oh God, what am I going to do? Mercedes is going to hate me if I can’t drive.”
“Breathe George. We’ll figure it out, together. That’s what we do now, we figure things out together. That’s what mates do; they support each other no matter what.”
“Promise?”
“I promise. Do you want me to be there when you tell Mercedes?” Pierre held George’s face, running his thumb along jaw. Sometimes he hated that George was taller than him in times like this when all he wanted to do was bring the omega into his neck so he could take in his scent.
“Please.” That’s how Pierre found himself holding George’s hand while they walked through the paddock down to where Mercedes was. Pierre was determined to be a good alpha for his omega, letting him do what he needed but there as back up, so no one gave George any troubled. But, instead of going to Toto’s office where Pierre assumed they were going George pulled the two toward his own driver’s room.
“Georgie, why are we here?”
“I’m scared Pierre. What if they fire me?”
“Then they’re stupid. You just need a break to have a pup then you’ll be back and better than ever. When the times comes if need by, I’ll quite racing and stay home with the pup because I know how much racing means to you.”
“Pierre, you don’t have to do that. Racing means so much to you too.”
“Yeah, it does but let’s be honest if one of us has the chance to be world champion it’s going to be you unless Alpine does some major upgrading in the next year or so.”
“You’re too good to me.”
“You deserve the world George and I’ll do everything I can to give it to you.”
“I love you. Can we just lie in our nest for a bit before going to talk to other people. I need you for just a few moments.”
“You have me for as long as you want me, Georgie.” Pierre led him to the nest in the corner where George had built it earlier that day before his whole world completely shifted.
The two laid down, George curling up as much as he could against Pierre’s front. George’ tucked his head under his mate’s chin so he was able to take in his scent as much as possible, excited to see where they were headed as a couple.
