It was around the third month of the pregnancy when Onoda started to show and Manami couldn't keep his hands off of the small swell. The idea that their baby—a baby between him and Onoda—was growing inside there was so amazing to him.

"You're amazing, Sakamichi."

"Huh?"

Onoda diverted his attention from the series premiere of a new anime to look at Manami. (Luckily it was recording as well, so he wouldn't be missing anything.) The other male was sitting next to Onoda, his head resting on his shoulder as his hands perused his belly. He could not seem to keep his hands off of it.

Seeing Onoda had not heard his comment, being so enthralled into the storyline, he repeated, "I said you're amazing, Sakamichi."

Onoda's face went red. "No, no! I—"

Manami wrapped his arms around his shoulders, peppering his face in kisses. "Don't deny it." He moved south and pushed up Onoda's shirt, placing kisses on his belly as well.

Onoda's mouth opened and closed as he tried to come up with something, anything, to say. It was a cute gesture, but he was so embarrassed. His face burned with the blush that covered it and his hands went back and forth, not sure whether to stop Manami or not. "S-Sangaku," He stammered.

Manami looked up and saw how flustered Onoda looked. "Oh no, I'm sorry, Sakamichi. I didn't realize that made you uncomfortable." He placed his palms on either side of Onoda's face. They locked eyes for only a moment. Onoda could not look at his lover out of embarrassment; he wanted to look anywhere but at Manami.

"Sakamichi, I'm sorry."

Onoda was quiet, still looking off to the side.

"I just think it's so amazing how you're carrying our child inside you."

"Huh?"

Two pairs of blue eyes finally locked together.

"I don't even have the words to explain how amazing that is, Sakamichi."

"It-it's no big deal! Really!

Onoda couldn't even find the right words. He wasn't very good at accepting these words. What could he even say? How could he possibly reply? Manami thought he was...amazing?

Manami chuckled, "You're so humble."

He leaned forward, placing a kiss on the other's forehead, and wrapping him in a hug. "I just love you so much, Sakamichi. It makes me so happy that you're doing all of this to bring our child into the world."

"It-it's nothing, I," Onoda stuttered before finally mumbling, "I love you, too, Sangaku." He began nuzzling his face into Manami's shoulder. He didn't get too far though before his glasses got in the way. He settled for resting his chin on his shoulder instead and closed his eyes. "I won't be able to do this without you, though."

"And I'll be here the whole time. I love you."

Onoda laughed, "You just said that."

"I can't say it enough. You're the best, Sakamichi."

They relaxed into each other's touch. They were so comfortable in each other's arms, hoping the moment could last forever. Suddenly, Onoda spoke up, breaking the silence, "Sangaku?"

"Hmm?"

Onoda wriggled uncomfortably underneath from where Manami had him in his arms. "Do you think you could let go?"

Manami's expression turned from content to shock as he pulled back, hands resting on Onoda's shoulders, and locking eyes. "What's the matter?"

Onoda's cheeks became red as he sheepishly admitted, "I suddenly really want some ice cream."

Manami let out a laugh, rising from the couch. "Toudou warned me about those sudden cravings. What kind do you want?" He wore a smile as he waited for an answer.

"No, I'll get it! It's fine!" Onoda scrambled to get up, pressing against the arm rest to quicken the process. "See? I'm already up!"

Manami pulled him close, placing kisses all over his face. "You're silly, Sakamichi. Let's go out and get some ice cream, then."

"Really?" Onoda's face lit up in excitement.

Manami poked his lover's nose with his index finger. "Yep! Any kind you want."

He led them towards the door while Onoda contemplated, "Maybe chocolate, then. Or no, strawberry! Those sound good!"

Manami laughed, "Whatever flavor you want."

"What flavor are you going to get?"

"Doesn't matter as long as I'm with you." Manami smiled, giving Onoda an Eskimo kiss.

"That sounds kind of dumb, Sangaku," Onoda laughed. He squealed as Manami pulled him up bridal style, dashing towards the door. "Maybe you just make me dumb, Sakamichi."

"Wait, I don't have my shoes on!"


I may or may not have started drabble series of TouMaki and T2 mpreg. (Wow, I'm trash.) I've proofread the TouMaki, but I'm like, I don't want to spam the YowaPeda section with my dumb mpreg writing, but gosh, I just really love mpreg.
