Simon knew you. You were never the jealous type, not least because you trusted Simon completely. The man would kiss the ground you walked on if you asked him. There was no reason for you to be distrustful of him.
In fact, it was never implied that you were in a relationship with Simon, but just by looking at the two of you together, it was obvious that Simon couldn't hide his feelings.
Well, it was clear to almost everyone.
Every now and then recruits arrived at the base, and Simon was one of those responsible for training them, everything always went well, however this time a certain recruit thought it was a good idea to flirt with the Lieutenant.
Simon obviously didn't reciprocate in any way. He was loyal to the person he loved. But even so, it seemed that this particular recruit still didn't understand Simon's cues.
You were obviously upset, even a little jealous, and Simon couldn't leave it at that, could he? So what better idea than to give you a ring?
You were already engaged. Why not get married right away?
He couldn't let his little bird get upset over a silly thing like that. So he quickly bought an expensive ring, with a big diamond in the middle, and it was as shiny as you. Simon didn't think twice before marrying you.
You deserved nothing less, and Simon was going to make it clear that you were his and he was yours. He didn't refrain from buying himself a ring either. His hands that were always covered with gloves were now bare, and he made sure to show off to display the wedding band on his finger.
And you think it was just the ring he gave you? Oh no, he also gave you a round belly that swelled more with each passing month, Simon couldn't have been prouder. What's better than having you married with him and full with his kid?
Now, every time you walk by the recruit, the signs are more obvious than anything Simon could say. And he knew you were doing it on purpose, putting your ring hand on your belly and caressing it. And to add fuel to the fire, Simon always stroked your belly when he was next to you, making it clear that he was very committed.
Since then, you haven't heard a single comment from the recruit. Apparently, Simon had made the situation very clear this time.
You were his pretty little thing, and it's going to stay that way.
