Chapter 10
Hide dried off his hair from showering and threw on some pajama bottoms. He draped a towel over his shoulders and opened the bathroom door. Instantly, a delicious smell engulfed his senses. He walked to the kitchen and found his six month pregnant husband cooking.
Kaneki was focused on stirring the contents of the frying pan and looked up when Hide approached him. "Can you come and taste this to see if it needs salt or if it's just bad and I need to throw it out."
Hide walked over and kissed Kaneki's cheek. "Nothing you make is bad. Thanks for making me dinner."
Kaneki picked up a piece of broccoli and a strip of meat with chopsticks and offered it to his husband.
Hide opened his mouth and let Kaneki feed him. Hide ate it and nodded. "It's good." He said before walking back to the fridge.
"If it's good, what are you getting? You're not lying to me, right?"
"I wouldn't do that. It is good." Hide opened the fridge and pulled out some soy sauce. "It just needs a little more flavor." Hide added it to the stir fry and returned the bottle back to the fridge as Kaneki stirred the contents of the pan.
Kaneki suddenly gasped and dropped his spatula, scaring Hide. Kaneki gently touched his extended stomach and rubbed his hand over a specific spot.
"You okay? Did your water break? Do I need to get Akira? The CCG doctors? I'm calling everyone." Hide said, pulling out the cellphone Akira gave them to use for emergencies.
A red kagune slipped the phone out of Hide's hand and set it on the counter, away from the human.
Kaneki smiled. "I love you Hide, but calm down. The baby isn't coming and won't be for another three months. Now, give me your hand." Kaneki held his hand out to Hide.
Hide handed his hand over and Kaneki pressed it over the spot on his stomach he was rubbing earlier.
"What's g-?"
"Shhh." Kaneki shushed Hide. "Just wait."
The two waited a bit before Hide felt something flutter against his hand. His eyes widened and he looked into the silver eyes of his husband. "It just moved."
Kaneki laughed. "Yeah, it did."
Hide was in amazement and got down on his knees to be eye level with Kaneki's stomach. He kept his hand on the spot, "It's kicking."
"Yes. That's what startled me. I never felt it kick before."
Hide gently pushed up Kaneki's shirt to expose the extended abdomen. Hide kissed it and grinned. "Hello, our awesomest wonderfullest child."
Kaneki let Hide continue to rub and kiss his tummy, even though their child had long since settled down and was no longer moving about.
