The Rooster, The Owl And The Baby Crow
A/N: so I'm back with chapter 2 I hope you all will enjoy this addition I rarely write more than one chapter for a story these days so I'm a little rusty ahah. Please R&R!
Kuroo's POV
It was a few months after that night with Bokuto and I've been feeling rather ill every day so much so that Bokuto has been more worried about looking after me than his sex drive which even I have to admit is quite impressive for him but I appreciated it more than he knew. I was struggling to even get out of bed and the weirdest thing was I was gaining so much weight when I could barely stomach food.
Today Bokuto showed up like he always did after school only this time he brought with him Akaashi which I didn't mind I liked the setter from Fukurodani though I'm sure if Bokuto heard me say that he'd get the wrong idea about it and get super jealous about it. I shook my head at the thought and gave the raven a small smile as he walked into my bedroom beside my lover. "Good afternoon Kuroo," Akaashi greeted softly.
"Good afternoon Akaashi," I replied with a small yawn. The raven looked me up and down and his eyes remained briefly on my growing stomach, the look on his face had me a little worried. "I-is everything alright Akaashi..?" I asked trying to keep the worry from my voice but failing.
Bokuto glared at the raven a little for this but it wasn't his fault really I've just been so emotional lately and I had no idea why. Akaashi however was unaffected by the owls glare "how long have you been feeling like this Kuroo? I don't mean to sound harsh but you look like hell," he voiced now and my worry only grew as I started to nibble onto my bottom lip.
Bokuto let out a small growl as he moved to stand beside me ready to push Akaashi out of the room but I grabbed his arm before he could do anything and shook my head. He huffed and sat down behind me pulling me into his chest now, that simple act had me relaxed in seconds. A light brush covered my face as I buried it in my hands as I spoke, "that would be shortly after the last time Bokuto and I had sex…" I said softly.
He quirked a brow a this "Bokuto said you've been really sick, sore gaining more weight than usual and mood swings correct?" he asked looking from Bokuto to me and back again when Bokuto nodded for me I was grateful I just wanted to die in this moment. "I see well I think I know what the symptoms are although I wouldn't have expected it from a male but it would appear from what you have described that you are indeed pregnant Kuroo," Akaashi said nonchalantly like he hadn't just voiced something that by all means should be impossible for two males.
Bokuto's face lit up at the mention of me being pregnant and he beamed down at me placed a chaste kiss to my lips his happiness overflowing as I was stuck in absolute shock. "B-but I'm male…" I voiced so quietly that I wasn't sure even Bokuto heard me.
Akaashi walked forward and put his hand comfortingly on my shoulder which I really appreciated although I heard Bokuto growl at him a clear warning to keep away from his mate and child. Akaashi didn't bat an eye at this already knowing Bokuto's personality perfectly and so he removed his hand but gave me a look that said I could come to him if I ever needed to. I smiled at him and glanced up at the other silently telling him to back off. "Now Kuroo we need to make sure that you are indeed pregnant so I'll run to the store and grab a test you should discuss what's going to happen if you are because Bokuto won't want to let you out of his sight if you are pregnant," he voiced softly and I nodded grateful for all of this that he'd leave us alone to privately discuss things and that he would get the test for me.
Akaashi slipped from the room and silently left us to it. I glanced at the owl before me "what are we going to do Bo we aren't ready for a child…" I said voicing my fears "I can't give this kid a life at the moment we haven't even finished school…" I worried at my lip once more as my eyes started to tear up at the prospect that I'd be a horrible parent.
Bokuto let out a small growl but it wasn't an angry growl it was simply to gain my attention as, as soon as I looked up at him he kissed me passionately. When we pulled apart he stared into my scared hazel eyes. "Kuroo everything is going to work out and you are going to make a wonderful mother there won't be a thing you won't do to make sure our child is happy and healthy and I know it," he told me without an ounce of doubt. "I'll get a part time job and then we can move out to our own place and start building a life for our family," he said matter-of-factly and it brought a smile to my lips.
In that moment I knew that everything would be fine Bokuto and I would make sure that our child was happy and healthy had a roof over their head. I half turned in his lap now so I could snuggle up to him my hormones from this apparent pregnancy making my emotions change more times than the weather. A few moments later the doorbell rang and Bokuto stood to let Akaashi in and then the two reappeared a moment later a test resting in Akaashi's hands. I laughed nervously and stood up grabbing the test from him "I guess I should go take this…" I said nervously hurrying to the bathroom to take it.
Once I'd peed on the stick I fixed my pants and headed out to wait for the stick to give me the lines to say if I was pregnant or not with an anxious Bokuto by my side while Akaashi waited while leaning against the door frame. After a few minutes until two lines appeared on it to say that I was indeed pregnant, I felt butterflies rise in my stomach at this "I-I'm pregnant…" I said aloud letting the information sink in.
Bokuto was over the moon he hugged me tight and then placed his hands on my stomach affectionately "do you think we're having a girl or a boy?!" he asked excitedly. I was still flabbergasted at the thought I was actually pregnant and a little nervous for the process not sure what would remain the same to a normal pregnancy and what would differ.
"You should book a doctor's appointment my mother says that I lady should go for a scan at about six weeks it's been what thirteen or fourteen weeks now since you last had sex so you're well over due for one," he voiced now and I couldn't be happier that Bokuto had brought him over I'm sure we would be panicking and unsure of what to do without him.
I nodded at this "yes I'll do that right away they might be able to help me with this morning sickness too…" I said softly looking down at my slightly bigger stomach. "Thank you Akaashi…it means a lot to me that you're here to help Bokuto and I. I fear where we would be if you weren't here with your advice," I told him seriously and Bokuto nodded in agreement.
"It's nothing I'm just glad I could help you both and especially to calm you down because stressing yourself out isn't good for you or for the baby," he voiced calmly nodding in return. I smiled and relaxed as Bokuto wrapped his arms around my stomach once more.
The next day I arranged for a scan luckily I could get one for the same day with it being so long overdue they wanted me to come in asap to make sure that the baby was alright although they were mightily confused when they heard I was male but they'd soon see when I finally got there. Bokuto had said that he'd skip school to come with me to the scan which warmed my heart but I'd make sure he didn't skip school in the future I just couldn't say not to him seeing his child for the first time.
So here I was sitting in the waiting room with Bokuto beside me our appointment was any minute now and we were constantly looking around when we heard any sort of noise, it was a relief when we were finally called in. The doctor was very polite even when he asked why I 'thought' I was pregnant and I explained it all. He looked sceptical but he did the ultrasound and was even more surprised when he found the baby and the heartbeat. I saw Bokuto about to 'hoot' so I shot him a stern glare telling him to be quite and respectful to the other expectant mothers in the ward.
He took my hand and I squeezed it as the doctor took a screenshot for us to take home of which we asked for two copies one for me and one for Bokuto. It finally hit home that I was indeed pregnant and I'd have to have a sit down with both my parents and Bokuto's to explain the situation which I wasn't really looking forward to but we didn't have the time to put it off. The nurse came in and gave us the picture of our baby. "When can we find out the sex of the baby?" I asked the doctor knowing that Bokuto wouldn't be able to wait till the birth.
"That would usually be during the second routine ultrasound that should be done between your eighteenth and twenty first week of pregnancy," the doctor informed us. I nodded as he wiped the gel from my stomach so I could pull my top down. We thanked the doctor and then left the hospital both of us gazing down at the photo we held in our hands.
It was when we were walking down the street that I decided to break the silence between us "we need to work out a date to get both our families together and tell them about this while discussing the future," I told him. He must have noticed how nervous I was at the prospect of telling our families about this as he reached out and took my hand in his giving it a reassuring squeeze.
"We will and it will go alright I know for one that no matter what's said about this I won't let it stop me being there for you and the child and I won't let them force you into an abortion although I doubt that would even be an option. Either way I'll protect you Kuroo you and the baby," he said earnestly and I knew that he would and it once again relaxed me my emotions calming right down.
"Let's try and get it done as early as possible…end of the week?" I asked glancing at the owl. He nodded and I smiled "I'll text you when I speak to my family alright let you know what they say you do the same with yours," I told him and nodded.
When we got to the end of the road where we'd split I could tell Bokuto was struggling he didn't want to leave his family. This thought made me smile more and I leaned in to kiss his lips softly "I don't want to go…" he grumbled softly before dropping his head on my shoulder his hands moving to my stomach.
I smiled and kissed his cheek "maybe when we talk to our parents we can work out a system where you stay at mine a few days and then I stay at yours a few days till we can find a place of our own," I voiced and he instantly perked up at this making me laugh softly. "I love you Bokuto my adorable owl~" I said happily smirking a little when his cheeks turned rosy.
"I love you too my silly rooster~" he said in return and pecked my lips before pulling away completely "alright I'm going to head back before I change my mind and just follow you home~ text me when you get home alright?" he asked softly and I smiled nodding promising him I would before we headed our separate ways.
Once indoors once more I noticed my mother was back, I sent a quick text to Bokuto so he knew I got home alright before walking in to the kitchen seeing my mother standing there. "Ahh you're back Tetsuro how are you feeling?" she asked the worry clear in her voice.
I gulped a little before forcing a smile "I'm feeling a bit better mother actually I wanted to know if you're free Friday for a family dinner with Bokuto's family it's a really important thing for us we have something to share with you all…" I said with a nervous chuckle. My mother gave me a look clearly wondering just what it was that we had to tell them that sounded so serious. Of course our family knew about our relationship having known pretty early on that it was going to be for the rest of our lives we had decided to be honest with the families and hope that they'd both accept us and luckily they did although neither one was particularly happy that we were dating but they stuck by us and that was what mattered cause without my family I didn't know if I could do it.
The end of the week promptly came my mother had raised a few brows when Bokuto had been coming around everyday since. Bokuto had suggested that we have the talk at mine deciding that it would be the most comfortable way for me which made me smile. He was going to be such a doting papa when our baby was finally born. So here we sat now my family and Bokutos around our dining room table Bokuto sat at my side his hand discreetly under the table on my knee squeezing encouragingly.
"So the reason we've called you both to meet tonight is we have some joint news and I know this going to come as a really big shock to everyone it was for me," I said softly taking a deep breath before continuing "the thing is that I'm pregnant…" I finally got out looking at the faces of utter shock from both our parents. The questions started coming which I knew they would I mean I a male was pregnant it was just so absurd, but neither family could debate it any longer when they saw my scan and promised that they could see in person at my next scan.
From there we had a lot of baby talk over dinner, my mother asked me how far along I was and if we were going to find out the sex of the baby before or after the birth and then there was talk of a baby shower and loads of baby shopping of which Bokuto and I barely participated in. I was still recovering from the nerves of telling them the news and Bokuto was trying his best to comfort me but we made sure to voice our opinions every now and then so our mothers in particular knew we were still listening to them.
Our parents agreed with our suggestion about Bokuto and I staying together they knew by now that Bokuto was already highly protective of me even if I didn't need him to be and that he would be even more protective now that I was pregnant. Our next big task would be telling our friends specially in our teams. I grumbled at this but none the less grabbed my phone and texted Kenma asking him to come over the one person I had to tell before anyone else was him. I promptly got a text saying he was busy which made me roll my eyes knowing exactly WHY he was busy. I turned to Bokuto "can you go buy an Apple pie?" I asked softly he gave me a puzzled look that had me chuckling "Kenma needs some bribing to come over, he loves Apple pie~" I said. He laughed and nodded kissing my forehead before he headed out, my mother had given Bokuto keys to our house in case I needed him to go out or such you know food cravings and it was the middle of the night.
I promptly grabbed my phone and sent a simple text telling him that I'd have Apple pie for him and he promptly replied saying he'd be over in a minute. I laughed softly at this and waited for the two most important people in my life came back. Bokuto didn't take long at all I think he went to shop and back in record time and of course Kenma was pretty quick considering how close we lived together. When he stepped into my room and saw Bokuto there as well he raised a brow but said nothing of it just a simple "what did you call me over here for Kuroo?"
I laughed nervously and glanced at Bokuto who wrapped his arms protectively around me and my stomach. "Well you see we have some news we wanted to share with you before telling both the teams…" I started slightly nervous but seeing Kenma's calm expression helped. "The thing is I'm pregnant I know that it should be impossible with two guys and all but I've been to the doctors and had a scan and everything and I'm definitely pregnant," I said nervously.
Kenma just looked from me to Bokuto and back again before calmly speaking "congratulations Kuroo you must be happy despite the obvious nerves" he stated calmly. I instantly calmed down from his words glad that Kenma would be there for me during this as well.
