A Family?

Kid's fork is loud as it clatters to the floor. Kid, Law thinks, looks a little silly - mouth slightly agape and toast poised, mid-bite, in the air. Law is sure he doesn't look any better though, clad in only boxers and an egg-stained apron; hair tousled from sleep and marks on his neck. He sees Kid swallow thickly and well great, Law thinks.

"What did you just say?" Kid asks and Law feels even smaller than before because fucker, he knows Kid heard him the first time.

Law sighs heavily, blows his bangs out of his forehead and he feels the blush coming on. Bastard. "I said, I want to have babies."

Kid blinks at him, swallows again and coughs shortly. "You want me to impregnate you?"

Law thinks he really should've expected this. "Eustass-ya," he starts, "you know what I mean."

Kidd shrugs at him then, smiles around the brim of his cup of orange juice and Law's heart feels lighter. "I know I do," Kid states, a playful twinkle in his eyes suddenly, "I just like the idea of you pregnant."

Law rolls his eyes and takes a seat; shifting to get comfortable because all this talk of Kid getting him knocked up is leading his train of thought into inappropriate places.

"No, seriously," Kid continues and Law momentarily fears for his unpregnant self because his beloved is really starting to get into it now, "You'd be nauseously adorable, all round and shit. We could go shopping for little clothes and diapers and you could do that headphone thing, you know? Except our babies would be rocking out… and not slowjamming bullshit. You know?"

Law won't say it out loud but the fact that Kid seems to want this too makes his stomach turn in a wonderful way. And he likes all these words Kid is saying; little adventures and promises of doing all this together. Law wonders, fleetingly, if he's dreaming - he didn't expect a reaction this good.

"Does that mean you want a family too? Or am I just getting my hopes up?" Law questions and crosses his fingers on his lap.

Kid shrugs again, smiles softly and scoots his chair closer to Law's. "It's a nice idea," he admits and links their fingers together.

Law scoffs to hide his relief and rolls his eyes again, "The babies or me pregnant?"

"The babies," Kid laughs and loves Law, "I do like the idea of getting you pregnant though."

Law flusters but lets Kid kiss him anyway, "Yeah, me too. Too bad it's impossible, huh?" and feels his heart sink a bit.

Kid leans closer to brush some hair from Law's forehead and looking at his eyes (eyes he loves so much and hates to see obscured - but, then again, he loves Law's hair too so he can't put it at fault), "We can always try," a suggestive grin and Law laughing into Kid's mouth. Then they're pulling away and Law loves Kid and feels oddly clingy.

"Or there's always adoption," Kid continues.

Law shrugs, considering it, "Do you think we could be parents?"

And Kid nods back, sincere. "Maybe not right now, with us still running after One Piece and everything."

And yeah, of course, Law thinks, but nods because he agrees anyway.

"But you and me are a forever thing. We have plenty of time," Kid finishes and they both like the sound of that.

End.
