Shiro would like to say he was following the stars, but he's not really a liar. He can read the stars, but he was listening to the GPS and Katie's music that blasted from her headphones. Aside from that, the truck was silent. Hunk and Lance were cuddled together, Lance's face stuffed in Hunk's chest. Keith leaned against the door, eyes closed and arms folded.

Allura and Coran followed in their mini-van. Shiro looked in his rear-view mirror to see Allura fast asleep in the passenger seat while Coran drove leisurely.

Shiro glanced over to Katie and smiled.

Katie stared up at the stars, mouthing along to the music she listed to. Her hair was pulled up into a messy bun, glasses crooked on her nose, and legs crossed. Her phone rested on her thigh, her hands tucked between her legs. Shiro looked to the road, reaching over to her with his prosthetic. He brushed his thumb over her elbow.

She glanced over to him, then shifted slightly. Katie raised her arm and slid it under his. She ran her fingers over the forearm of his prosthetic almost intimately. Shiro smiled, watching as she spread her palm flat over his, fingers slipping through his.

Both stayed quiet as Katie leaned on his shoulder. Katie tilted her head and kissed his prosthetic bicep. Shiro hummed, looked down to their entwined fingers. He raised her hand and placed a kiss to her knuckles, just under her wedding band.

Katie smiled, nuzzling his shoulder. Shiro chuckled, looking back at the road.

"How long until we reach the motel?" Katie murmured, nudging her headphones back.

"Half an hour." Shiro rubbed circles into the back of her hand.

"It's almost eleven. Will it still be open?"

"It should be. I looked it up." Shiro whispered with a nod in the direction of lights from a town. "Maybe less than half an hour."

Katie smiled, then gestured to the backseat. "Should we wake the children?"

Shiro laughed softly. "Yes. We should have them gather the things we're taking inside."

~(it's in a few paragraphs)

Once Shiro came out with the room keys, everyone headed off to their room. Keith, Hunk, and Lance had a room, Allura and Coran got a room, then Shiro and Katie got their own room.

"Ooh, they have robes!" Katie mused from the bathroom as Shiro dug through their dufflebags for pajamas. He chuckled and tossed the clothing onto the foot of their bed. "Oh, It's so soft and comfortable. I don't think they'd like it if I stole one, though."

"Yeah, don't do that." Shiro hummed, tugging his shirt off over his head. "Get in the shower, Katie."

"But what about you?"

"I'm making you something to eat, then I'll get in the shower while you're eating."

"That's no fun." She huffed, opening the bathroom door. "Come on, we've been on the road for days. Relax a little."

Shiro sighed softly as Katie sat him on the edge of the bed. He smiled as she crawled up and straddled his lap. "I do miss my private time with you."

Katie hummed and nodded, sliding her arms over his shoulders. "Me too, Taka. I miss how you'd touch me. How you'd kiss me when we're alone. We don't have that while on the road with those dorks."

"We're alone now, aren't we?" Shiro leaned forward and pressed his lips to just under her jaw. Katie sighed, tilting her head. "Aren't you hungry?"

"Did you not see all the jerky and trail mix I ate?" Katie grinned, biting her lip as Shiro pulled her hair out of its bun.

"I was keeping my eyes on the road. Didn't want to crash."

"Lair." Katie sang, moaning softly as he gently bit, then sucked on her skin. "Your eyes were on me the whole time."

"You caught me." Shiro pulled back just slightly and tugged on the knot Katie tied to keep the robe from opening. Shiro nearly purred at the sight the robe cleared away for him. "It's almost like you planned this, sweetheart."

Katie shrugged. "I might have." She shuddered as his thumb traced the lacy hem of her panties.

"I still can't believe I was lucky enough to get you to say yes." Shiro ran his fingers through her hair, then he grabbed her waist. Katie giggled, cupping his jaw. Their lips met gently, and Shiro tugged the robe off her.

"I said that three years ago." Katie whispered as they parted. Shiro shrugged with a goofy grin. He lifted her up and flipped them over. Katie laughed as her back hit the mattress. "Takashi!"

Shiro kicked off his jeans trailing kisses down her flat, bare abdomen. Katie hummed, closing her eyes. She bit her lip as he tugged her panties down her legs. "You're already a little wet." Shiro mused, lifting her legs up over his shoulders.

Katie adjusted her hips. "I can't help it. We haven't been able to do this for so long..."

He slid the pad of his thumb over her clit, causing her to quiver and arch her back. "I guess I'll just have to make amazing love to you tonight, then."

Before she could talk, Shiro's mouth was already devouring her. Katie gasped, eyes rolling back. "Takashi!" Her thighs clenched around his head, rolling her hips onto his tongue.

As he sucked, tingles spread through her body. Katie panted softly, reaching down to tug on his hair. "Taka..." He hummed in question, pulling back. Katie whined, but allowed him to spread her legs so he could shuffle up.

Shiro reached behind her and unclipped her bra with ease. "When was the last time you wore your binder?" He mused, tossing her bra.

"Uhm... Maybe a... a year ago?" It was more of a question than a statement. Katie then mewled as he squeezed her small breast and flicked his tongue over her perky nipple. "Shiro!" Katie arched, wrapping her legs around his hips. "Takashi!"

"What, sweetheart?" Shiro asked sweetly, then sucked and tugged with his teeth on both her breasts. Katie slapped a hand over her mouth to smother the noises that still managed to,slip through her fingers.

Katie cried out as one of his fingers suddenly prodded at her core, then slid in. Katie whined, rolling her head to the side as he worked his finger. Shiro added a second, and she rolled her hips awkwardly.

Shiro shifted to kiss her neck, scissoring his fingers inside of her. Katie's jaw dropped, her head tilting back as she shook. Shiro took this to his advantage and left his marks all along her fair skin.

"T-Takashi!" She whimpered, gripping his shoulders. With his prosthetic, Shiro caressed her side and up her thigh. Katie bit down on her lip, small, hurt noises escaping as Shiro slipped in a third finger.

"It's okay, Katie." Shiro whispered. "You know you don't have to hold back." He assured, dotting kisses everywhere he could reach on her face.

Katie nodded, breath hitching. Shiro curled his fingers and she shouted. Katie arched her back suddenly, shuddering heavily. Shiro hummed as she spilt all over his hand. He chuckled, pulling his fingers out. "I thought you were going to make me try harder." Shiro mused, pulling her hand up to his lips.

Katie moaned softly. "I was thinking about it."

Shiro smiled. "Of course you were." He reached down into the suitcase beside the bed, then pulled back up with a condom between his fingers. "Ready, sweetheart?"

"Just hurry up." Katie groaned, lolling her head to the side.

"Right. Of course." Shiro chuckled, shuffling out of his boxers and rolling on the condom. "How could I forget how impatient you are?"
Katie smiled, tugging Shiro down for a kiss. "I love you, you dork."

Shiro nuzzled her with a grin. "I love you, too, Katie."

"Now get a move on!"

"Alright, alright!" Shiro laughed, raising up her legs.

Katie bit her lip, squeezing her thighs around Shiro's hips as she grasped at his back. A low whine slipped through Katie's lips, Shiro huffing softly as her warm walls squeezed around him.

"You're so tight tonight, sweetheart."

"Well, we haven't had alone time in... A while..." Katie panted, brows furrowed.

Shiro rolled his hips and Katie gasped. "S-slow, Taka! Slow tonight..."

"Whatever you want." Shiro turned her head so shed face him and began peppering soft, long kisses over her face.

"Ahh..." Katie bit her lip as he complied to her request, kissing her everywhere he could reach. "Takashi..."

"I love it when you say my name like that." Shiro hummed, shifting her hips. Katie whimpered, nails digging into his shoulders.

Katie gasped and moaned softly with his gentle movement and soft caresses. He whispered sweet nothing's in her ear, doing anything she'd ask of him.

Katie reached up until the tip of her fingers were in his short hair. "Takashi?" She breathed, looking up at the ceiling.

Shiro hummed, kissing just above her ear.

"Takashi, I..." Katie rotated her hips to meet his. "I want a baby..." She whispered, arching her back. "Not-not now, but..." Katie turned to press the side of her face into his neck. "I want to settle back down... We-we've been on this... this trip for over a year now..."

"Katie..." Shiro groaned raising her legs just slightly and rolling his hips. "Are you sure?"

"I've been... been thinking about it." Katie closed her eyes, jaw dropping as he rolled back in just right. "Takashi! A-again!"

Shiro obeyed, adjusting a little. Katie moaned, dropping her head back. "I-I'm close!" She gasped.

He raised both of them, thrusting into her faster. Katie cried out to him until she shuddered and her eyes rolled back with his name spilling from her lips. It didn't take long for Shiro to follow suit.

Once Shiro came back to his senses, he shuffled the both of them around until they were beneath the covers and the condom was tossed in the trash. Katie nuzzled into his bare chest as he wrapped his arms around her.

"Are you really considering having a baby, Katie?"

She bit her lip. "Yes... You asked me before if I wanted my own family with you... I do. I want to settle back into our own house. The renters are moving out soon, so I was thinking that we could move back in. Take it off the renter's market. I love all this traveling with everybody, Takashi, but... We hardly get our privacy and I want... I want to expand our family, Takashi. I want a baby."

Shiro smiled, tracing circles into her back. "Alright. After the beach, we're headed back to Texas."

Katie's eyes lit up as she looked back up to Shiro. "You mean it?"

He chuckled and kissed her forehead. "Of course."

"I love you, Takashi." Katie nestled back into his warmth.

"I love you, too, Katie."

Shiro smiled and watched as Katie played in the sand with Lance, Hunk, and Allura. Keith and Coran stayed back on the beach towels watching or stuffing their face in a book.

Katie's amber eyes sparkled, the messy bun of honey hair bouncing out of it's firm hold. Hunk scooped her up and tossed her over his shoulder, causing Katie to shriek happily.  Lance and Allura struggled to tear her away from Hunk, but they managed and bolted to the water.

In the water, they splashed around, dragging - or attempting to - each other under water.

It's been just over a day since that night. Shiro couldn't help but think a lot about their conversation.

Katie wanted a baby. She wanted to settle down. Shiro wanted to say it was odd - which it was if they were still teenagers. However, he's noticed that ever since they've been married, she'd spot a distant family and sigh softly or stare. He's noticed how much softer she becomes around children. Shiro's noticed a lot of changes in his wife.

Shiro laughed as Katie scrambled out of the water and ran straight towards him with a wide grin across her beautiful face. "Shiro!" She yelled, tossing herself into his arms.

"Katie, what are you doing!?" Shiro caught her, then kissed her head after falling back onto the towel.

Katie propped herself up on his chest. "Just wanted to tell you that I love you."

Shiro chuckled, then they both looked over at Keith as he huffed.

"I wish my boyfriend would just 'want to tell me he loves me.'"

Both Katie and Shiro laughed at him, Katie tossing a handful of sand towards Keith. Keith yelped, playfully sneered at Katie, then tackled her off Shiro.

Katie shrieked, then laughed as they rolled in the sand.

Shiro watched amusedly, waiting a couple minutes before dragging her back to himself.

"Holy Quiznak!" Katie snapped as she stepped into the house. "What the hell!?"

Both Katie and Shiro covered their noses and mouths as they stepped further into the house.

"Holy shit- Shiro! Look at these stains! What the fuck did they do the year we let them live here!?" Katie stomped on one of the many nasty stains on the carpet. "What the hell!? The ceiling has water damage! So does almost this entire fucking wall!"

Shiro sighed, grabbing her shoulder to pull her to his chest. "Calm down. I'm going to call them."

"Tell them they're paying for all these goddamned damages!"

"I will, Kathrine. Calm down, sweetheart."

"Hell no. Not after what those assholes have done to my house- what the shit!" Katie tore away from Shiro and bolted for the french doors, leading out to the backyard. "Takashi Shirogane, they fucked up the pool and got rid of the hot tub! I'm suing the hell out of them!"

~

Katie curled up on the couch beside Matthew, the tv on. She glared at the screen, her brother's arm wrapped around her shoulders.

Shiro sat down, setting his phone on the side table with a sigh. Katie perked up and looked over to him. "What happened?"

"They've finally agreed to pay for all damages and to replace the hot tub." Katie nodded firmly. "However," Katie groaned, dropping her head on her brother's shoulder, "repairs and renovations maybe take a month to three months, depending on several factors."

"Shit... Wanna come to New York with us, Matt?"

Matthew shrugged. "Why not?"

~

Katie bounced excitedly, squeezing Shiro's hand as they made their way through bustling, busy streets and sidewalks.

"I can't believe it's been seven months since we were last in New York! I don't think we even went to Manhattan! Did we?"

"Nope." Shiro mused as he followed her, occationally glancing over his shoulder so they wouldn't lose Matthew.

Katie stretched her arms out. "All this walking beats all that driving from Texas to New York. Good thing we're staying here for about a month. I call driving back home. You're a scary driver when you're tired, you know."

Shiro chuckled with a roll of his eyes.

~

Katie bit her lip as she leaned on the truck door, staring at the scenery as they drove by.

Shiro reached over and took her hand, keeping his eyes on the road. "What's the matter?" He asked quietly, not wanting to wake Matthew.

She shook her head. "Nothing." Katie shuffled around in her seat until she was leaning onto Shiro's shoulder. "If you really want to know, though, you may want to pull over."

He raised a brow, but hummed and slowed as he pulled off to the side of the road, turning on his hazards. "Alright. What is it?" He asked once parked.

Instead of answering, Katie unbuckled and got out of the truck. Shiro hesitated before doing the same. He made his way around the truck, holding his arms up in the offering of an embrace. Katie accepted, standing on her toes to wrap her arms around his neck.

Shiro lifted her, then set her down to sit on the hood of his truck. "What's wrong, baby girl?" He murmured, pressing his lips into her shoulder.

Katie pulled back, cupping his jaw. "Nothing is wrong, Takashi." She grinned, tears welling up in her eyes. "I'm pregnant."

He stared at her for a moment, then blinked owlishly. "Pregnant?" Shiro repeated quietly, and she nodded.

Out of the pocket in her jeans, she pulled out her pregnancy test and showed it to him. "See?"

Shiro's eyes widened, a grin slowly building up on his face. "Pregnant! A baby! A baby, Katie- a baby!"

Katie laughed as he picked her up by the waist and twirled before setting her down. "A baby, Katie!" Shiro pulled her closer, crushing his lips excitedly to hers. "We're going to have a baby!"

~

Katie's expression went blank as they pulled up to their house. She blinked, stepping out of the truck. "Wow... The yard is... The house... It's..."

Shiro chuckled, stepping around the truck. He placed his hand on the small of her back, urging her to the porch. He unlocked the door, then let her in.

If possible, her eyes widened more. "Takashi..." She gasped, spinning around as she looked. "It's beautiful! Is this really the same house!?"

"It's our house, Katie." He held up his keys and shook them.

Katie squealed as yapping came from the hallway. Lance grinned, stepping out into the living room with a black and white puppy wriggling in his arms. "This little guy is everyone else's present to you to congratulate you two on the baby and the house!"

She giggled and rushed over, taking the excited puppy from their friend. "Aw, he's so cute!" Katie nuzzled him as he excitedly licked her. Shiro smiled, nodding to Lance.

Lance grinned and waved to him, then held up a key. "Here's your key, Pidge. It's your house, you should have it."

Katie smiled brightly up at him, taking it. "Thank you."

"Anytime." Lance ruffled her hair, pet the dog, then trotted towards the front door. "Except for right now because I'm running late to a date with Keith!"

Shiro and Katie laughed, saying their goodbyes as Lance rushed out.

Shiro approached his wife as she set down the puppy. He wrapped his arms around her, tightly embracing her. "I love you so much, Kathrine Shirogane."

Katie hummed, nuzzling into him. "I love you, too, you big dork. I can't believe everything that's happening. It's all settling into place."

He chuckled. "Yeah... Just wait until you see the nursery."

"There's a nursery!?"

"Yes. I requested it right after you told me."

"I have to see it!" Katie darted up the stairs, grin sparkling and eyes shimmering.

Shiro smiled, relaxed and content.
