Maternal Ponderings

The day ended the same as always with Honoka, Kotori, and Umi hanging out in the ginger's room. The mood was rather calm as the trio spent the time in a comfortable silence. Umi was of course doing some homework like the good student she was and Kotori just busied herself with one of her fashion magazines trying to get some inspiration for a new outfit to make. Honoka just silently watched the two, finding comfort in the sight of her girlfriends just doing what they usually do.

*Knock* *Knock*

The three girls turned towards Honoka's door.

"You three in there?" they heard the voice of Mrs. Kousaka.

"Yeah kaasan," Honoka answered.

The door opened and in walked Mrs. Kousaka carrying a tray of homemade rice crackers and some freshly brewed tea.

"I thought you guys could use some more snacks," she said as she laid the tray on her daughter's table.

"Thank you, Kousaka-obasan," both Umi and Kotori said. "Thanks kaasan," Honoka gave her own thanks.

"It's nothing. Just call me if you three need anything," the older woman smiled at them then slowly left the room, closing the door behind her.

Honoka as always dug into the provided snacks instantly. She took a big bite out of a rice cracker and washed it down with tea.

"Ah, I needed this," she said with a satisfying breath.

"He-he, your mom always knows the best time to bring snacks," Kotori mentioned as she grabbed a cracker as well, delighting in the snack as much as her ginger-haired girlfriend.

"I agree," Umi added as she too took one of the treats and a cup of tea. Like her girlfriends she enjoyed the savory treat but did so a little more daintily. "Your mother's just wonderful like that," she commented offhandedly.

"She's always taking care of us, just like any good mother would," Kotori threw in.

"Mm-hmm," Umi hummed in agreement again.

Hearing this, a small thought crossed Honoka's mind.

"Hey, Umi-chan, Kotori-chan," she spoke to get their attention.

"Yes Honoka," Umi answered for her and the gray-haired girl.

"Do you two think I could ever be like that?" the ginger asked offhandedly.

"Like what?" Kotori asked this time.

"Like my mom. Do you think I could ever be a good mother like her?" she clarified her last question.

The question caught Umi and Kotori by surprise. They both smiled though, as they already knew the answer.

"I think you would be a great mother," Umi spoke sincerely.

"You really think so?" Honoka asked rather unsure.

"Of course Honoka-chan," Kotori answered this time.

Honoka perked up at their answers. "What kind of mom do you think I would be?"

"The kind we'd have to put on time out with the children," Umi answered matter of fact.

It took a second for Honoka to register the blunette's answer. "Hey!"

"Umi-chan has a point," Kotori added in.

"Mou, Kotori-chan," Honoka whined feeling hurt and betrayed.

"If any of our children take after you, they're going to be impulsive, reckless, and do who-knows-what," the archer pointed out. "Knowing you, you would more than likely encourage them without even thinking."

This didn't deter the ginger though as she looked at Umi, a big smile on her face. "That's why you'll be the one to discipline them and set rules for them Umi-chan."

"Humph," Umi huffed. "I can't even get you to listen to me, what makes you think I'd succeed with tiny versions of you?" the girl argued.

"Hmm, good point," Honoka quickly agreed.

"Hey!" it was Umi's turn to shout.

"I bet all it will take is one or two big puppy-dog pouts and she'll be too immobilized to yell or lecture," Honoka said as her face did the aforementioned pout complete with tears and wide-eyes which she aimed at Umi.

The girl blushed from how cute and pathetic it made Honoka look and also from being frustrated that her girlfriend was right. "Stop that," she begged, covering her eyes to keep from seeing the sight.

Kotori just giggled at the two their antics never ceasing to amuse her.

"And you Kotori-chan," Honoka called.

"Hmm," Kotori just answered with a waiting smile.

"You would be the go-to mom for everything," Honoka stated. "You're so kind and caring not to mention cute, plus you can cook and even make cloths," she happily listed off. "I can already picture it."

"Mama can have a hug. Mama, bedtime story please. Or my favorite one, 'mama can I has kisses," Honoka said, speaking in a childish manner.

Kotori couldn't help but giggle at her love. Funny as it was though, Honoka did paint a very nice and welcoming picture.

"Which one of us would carry though?" Umi suddenly asked.

Everything went silent.

Hearing the question, Honoka's eyes suddenly lit up and she leapt from her spot and tackled Kotori. "It would have to be Kotori-chan," she said as she moved down to the girl's body towards her stomach cuddling into the area.

"W-why me?" the girl asked still fazed by her girlfriend's sudden explosion of affection.

"Because Kotori-chan would look super cute and sexy if she was preggers," Honoka drooled as she pictured the sight and cuddled even more into the girl's stomach.

Kotori-chan was just overwhelmed by the girl's affections to do or say anything.

"Who knew Honoka had a pregnant fetish," Umi said softly, one of her eyes twitching.

"Wait a minute," Honoka spoke suddenly detaching herself from Kotori. Her eyes then shifted towards her other girlfriend, a predatory gleam overtaking her features. More drool fell from her face as she pictured Umi being pregnant alongside Kotori. "Umi-chan preggers!" she suddenly shouted as she leapt towards the girl.

With not enough time to react Umi was tackled the same as Kotori and was being subjected to a fierce cuddling of her stomach.

"Someone save me!" Umi did her best Hanayo impression.

Outside of Honoka's room:

Mrs. Kousaka couldn't help but hear the entire conversation and began to ponder the same as her daughter and future daughter-in-laws about the prospects of them being mothers and her having future grandchildren.

She found she really liked the idea.

Though upon hearing the shout of 'preggers' and peaking in in time to see Honoka tackle Umi made her pray that her future grandchildren will take more after Kotori and Umi than anything else.

"The world's not ready for more of my daughter," she giggled as she went to check on her other daughter and Arisa.

Author's Notes: So yeah, Honoka has a fetish now. She just strikes me as the type. Not to mention I just find it easy to do Honoka + pregnancy = trouble as my story's backbone. Also it's just easy to write the trio in the setting of Honoka's room.
