{From the beginning; Small lifeforms}

She noticed the twitch of her girlfriend's ears as she drummed her fingers on the kitchen table. She understood that the sound, while not particularly obnoxious or loud, must've been torturing the poor faunus girl just shaken awake from her nap. A steaming cup of coffee sat before her - a peace offering that Yang had prepared beforehand - untouched.

Blake really wasn't happy about being woken up. But Yang had decided that this was something they needed to discuss now before she chickened out. And it wasn't like this was something that would just go away if she avoided speaking about it out loud.

It didn't keep her from being nervous though.

"You, um….you haven't touched your coffee."

Blake sighed and she winced, knowing that she was only stalling for time at this point. She couldn't even pinpoint the reason why she was so nerve-wracked right now, but the bubbling feeling of self-inflicted impending doom still churned in her stomach, making her almost physically sick. She paused in her drumming and bit her lower lip. Or maybe that was the sickness she had heard about…

She shook her head, earning a curious glance from Blake. It was time to stop putting this off.

"Blake, I….I missed my period."

It seemed that waking her girlfriend right in the middle of her nap had come with some side effects such as slow comprehension. Amber eyes blinked at her lazily waiting for her to elaborate. The blonde took a deep breath.

"So I….took a pregnancy test."

This seemed to get through to the faunus, eyes now wide with attentiveness and back erect with surprise. Yang watched her girlfriend carefully, lilac eyes analyzing her every movement. So far she only seemed caught off guard, but she wasn't sure how she would react when she told her the next bit of news.

"It came out positive."

At this Blake leaned back, arms limp on the table as she processed the new information. All dregs of sleep now gone from her system, the cat faunus was staring at the mug of coffee her mind in a far off place as she ran over the current situation and implications that came with it. Yang sat in silence, allowing her to catch up on her own terms. Her fingers began drumming on the table again and from the corner of her eye she noticed the twitch of ears.

"So you're….?" Blake finally spoke.

Yang stopped her drumming and nodded her head. "Yeah."

When she said nothing else, Yang decided it was time to explain herself and send forth her proposition.

"Look," she said. "I know…I know we haven't really discussed having kids in the near future let alone now. And I know that we're saving up money for your transition which is so important to you and a child could get in the way of that. So…we don't have to have this child if you don't want but I thought we could at least talk about it. Maybe we could come up with some options where we could both be happy and…" she trailed off here and let her hands fall to her lap.

"I don't want to sound selfish but…..I really don't want to get rid of it," she whispered.

The sound of wood scraping against the floor brought her attention to her girlfriend rising from her seat and walking around the table towards her, stooping low once she had reached her. Gentle hands reached up to cup her cheeks before pulling her down for a chaste kiss to the forehead.

"And we won't."

Yang blinked away the forming tears. "We won't?"

Blake shook her head with a smile, leaning up to place another chaste kiss, this time to her lips. "No. We won't."

Then they were both on the floor, Yang on top with her arms wrapped tightly around the faunus' neck, face buried in her shoulder.

Blake chuckled. "There will still be a lot to talk about, but I think we can manage to pull this off."

Yang grinned and pulled away from her shoulder, her blonde hair cascading down and framing both of their faces. "I love you."

Then she lowered herself down, placing a sweet kiss on Blake's lips who wrapped her arms around Yang's waist. "I love you, too," she said when they parted for air.

Yang rested her head on Blake's chest and listened to her heartbeat. Neither made a move to get up.

"I think…you'd make a great mom, Blake."


A/N: Just a short little prompt I got on tumblr where one of them was supposed to do a pregnancy test. Originally I was going to go for a humor fic where drunk Yang took one and Blake would later point out that they couldn't physically have a child. But then I got the even better idea to have trans!Blake and have it more heartfelt.

(And I got this out just in time for the legalization of gay marriage! yaaaaaay :D)
