Summary
Unmistakably though, life. She was pregnant.
Her hand pressed harder against her stomach, she had been unconscious, unaware, absent from herself for years.
In all that time, she had surrendered her body to only one person. Only to Rio. Had someone else been here, had some mortal male had his wicked way while she was unable to fight against him?
She was sure though that Rio had been here. The memories were not clean or clear enough to trust, but they were there all the same.
Rio had found a way into the cage and now there was a child inside her.

Summary
“You know it’s extremely poor form to not show up when the owner of the Continental calls for you.”
Rio’s heart stuttered at the woman’s voice. Once again, her body betraying her. She looked up to see that her little performance of ignoring was wasted. The woman was pointedly looking out the window, her thick mane of dark curls, obscuring part of her face.
Rio straightened her posture. “And I think it’s stupid to get in the car with Lady Death, knowing this isn’t neutral ground,” she said smoothly, pointedly shifting her hand to rest behind her.

Summary
Rio is an exhausted ER Doctor, ready to fall into a deep sleep the second she walks through the door of her apartment. Naturally, her sister calls her just that second and asks Rio to pick up her niece from school. Rio, being ever the good aunt, agrees. Unfortunately, while her niece is playing on the playground at school, she falls off the monkey bars and skins her knee, which is how Rio meets School Nurse Agatha Harkness.
After a small misunderstanding, which involves Rio confusedly giving Agatha her phone number, Rio makes a stunning realization -- well, actually, she's kind of led into said realization by her family, who is apparently far more knowledgeable about flirting than Rio is.
Fluffy AU based on a reddit story. Second chapter will have smut.
