Chapter 7
Disclaimer- I own nothing!
MC felt miserable. Of course today had to be the day her morning sickness had to be at its worst. Today all of the RFA was getting together and she really wasn't ready to tell them. Her goal was to wait until the second trimester but at this rate she wouldn't be able to. Saeyoung would say to have them reschedule but this was needed by all of them and they would ask why anyway. Besides, Saeyoung was at the shop with Saeran so he didn't know her head had been in the toilet all morning. She didn't know how she was going to manage but she would have to. Sitting on the bathroom floor she took a deep breath and rested a hand on her stomach. Even though she was miserable she was happy. Saeyoung seemed nervous still but he seemed excited at least. They sat together the other night plotting rooms for everyone. They had plenty of space for the soon to be five of them so they didn't have to worry about moving. They were going to move a few of the rooms around and do some remodeling but it was nothing terrible. Feeling sick again MC moved to throw up again and hope this ended soon.
MC could tell Saeyoung didn't believe her. She had managed to leave the bathroom, pull herself together and put makeup on so she wouldn't look as miserable as she felt, before she hung out in the living room.
"We can cancel."
"I'm fine."
"You should have called me."
"It's just morning sickness."
"Babe. If you aren't feeling well we can tell everyone."
"No. Saeyoung, really I'm fine."
Saeran came into the living room to relax a bit before they had company when he stopped seeing the other two on the couch.
"MC. You look horrible." Seeing her eyes start to water before she ran out crying Saeran felt bad but confused. "I…I never meant to make her cry. She doesn't look well though. Should I call a doctor?"
Shaking his head Saeyoung stood up to talk to her.
"She says it's just morning sickness. I'll tell her you meant nothing by it." Leaving Saeran in the room he went to their bedroom.
MC curled up on the bed hugging Saeyoung's pillow to her chest, letting her tears flow on it.
"MC? Babe?"
Hearing Saeyoung come into the bedroom she lifted her eyes up for a moment. So much for putting on makeup.
"Saeran feels really bad about upsetting you. He is just worried about you." Climbing on the bed he put his arms around her giving her a hug.
"I'll apologize to him later for upsetting him. I'm just emotional right now. I'm sorry for this."
"Don't apologize love, you've done nothing wrong." Kissing her forehead he rested his against hers. "Can I ask though, why don't you want to tell anyone? Are you scared to?"
Shaking her head against him she looked at his chest. "Yes. But not for the reason you think. I…I don't want to tell them in case. Well…in case I miscarry."
"Don't be scared to admit that MC. I understand and I'm fine with waiting to tell them. You know I'll always support you."
Nodding her head she placed it against his chest. He was comforting. She still felt miserable but she had his support and love.
Coming out of their room MC felt better after she cried on Saeyoung for a few minutes. When she was ready she fixed her makeup so she looked put together. Seeing Saeran in the computer room she went to apologize to him for making him worry. Watching him get up to hug her she couldn't help but smile.
"Glad you are feeling better."
Knowing MC felt nauseous, Saeyoung helped serve everyone once they arrived. Jumin brought wine but he figured save that for dinner. To make things easier they all decided they were going to have something cooked for them. Jaehee brought up the idea feeling bad that MC would have to cook for all of them and Jumin was a picky eater when it came to quality. Saeyoung knew he would regret it but he let Jumin choose the place they ordered from, a five star restaurant…he did not want to see the bill.
MC was happy she was feeling a little better. Dinner worried her but she was happy sitting and talking with Jaehee. Yoosung was talking to Saeran about school and his classes. It warmed her heart to hear Saeran ask him about it. She fully supported him on trying to get a proper education and knew Saeyoung would teach him at the shop when he had time. Zen, Saeyoung, and Jumin were discussing Zen's new project, she was happy to see those two being friendly towards each other as well.
"So MC, enough about my crazy day, how have you been? I hope Saeyoung hasn't been driving you nuts."
Laughing, MC couldn't deny that he certainly did that at times.
"I've been really good. Busy, but good. The shop is doing really well so I've been busy keeping things organized.
"That's good to hear. You know, I miss you. I hope we can get together soon for coffee."
"Yes. We must." Excited, she really hoped they could plan something. Whenever they got together they had a really nice time.
"Oh!" Hearing Jumin exclaim, everyone stopped talking to stare at him. "I have the date set for the next party. July 15th, a Friday in the same location we have had them before."
MC watched as Saeyoung looked at her which caused everyone to look at her. Feeling nauseous again she tried to think of the best words.
"Jumin…I can plan but I may not be able to attend."
"MC…" Saeyoung watched her, knowing why she was saying that but knew they weren't thinking the same things.
Stopping Saeyoung from saying more she smiled at Jumin. "I have plans for that time. I will have to let you know."
"Should I reschedule? You know I prefer we all attend."
"No, don't do that." Looking at Saeyoung she could tell they were now on the same page. Changing the date wouldn't mean they could attend. MC would either still be heavily pregnant or they would be raising newborn twins. Getting up, she moved to Sayoung and whispered in his ear before leaving the room.
"Is everything alright Saeyoung?" Jumin asked, he could tell something was going on.
"Yea, everything is fine. MC just reminded me of something." Seeing her come back a moment later holding an envelope she handed it to Jumin.
"It's easier to show you then to try to explain." Saeyoung wrapped an arm around her waist while they waited. Yoosung, being curious moved to look over his shoulder only to have Jumin shift his body to stop him. Taking the photo strip out of the envelope he stopped to stare at it while he tried to figure it out.
"Honestly, I had a feeling. May I?" Asking if he could show Jaehee, MC nodded. Curious, Jaehee took the ultrasound pictures. A smile widened on her face. Getting up she quickly moved to both MC and Saeyoung.
"Congratulations! I am so happy for you both!"
The other two were curious about what was happening and Zen finally saw the pictures.
"MC, you're pregnant?" Zen asked.
Pulling away from Jaehee she wiped away happy tears.
"I am. Saeyoung and I are expecting twins around the date of the party so it's probably out for us this time. But, I still want to help plan it."
"But, only if she isn't overdoing it. Got it Jumin." Saeyoung interjected. Jumin put a lot of work on MC's shoulders last time. He remembered she was always working on the party. He fought with her to sleep a couple of times; that was not happening this time.
"Oh trust me. I won't let that happen." Jaehee promised to them before hugging her again. Yoosung was next since Zen was congratulating Saeyoung.
Settling down again they focused on dinner. While they waited on the chiefs to tell them things were ready MC moved to sit beside Saeran. He had grown quiet and she hoped he was alright. She knew sometimes he needed a break but she liked checking in with him.
"Do you need something MC?"
"No, just wanted to see how you are doing. I heard you ask Yoosung about school."
"Yea. I might look into it more. I just need to figure out what to do about missing high school."
"I'm sure I can find replacement courses you can take. Or Saeyoung might be able to." Trying to encourage him she could see it helped. She knew he wanted to better himself and she knew he wanted at least Saeyoung to approve of his decisions. Those two had clearly come a long way.
After dinner MC had to step away from everyone for a bit. She was feeling nauseous again and didn't want to ruin their good time. She loved dinner, it tasted amazing but now she was dealing with the fact that the twins hated whenever she ate anything. Seeing light hit her face she saw Saeyoung in the doorway before he stepped into the room.
"Everything alright Saeyoung? Are they leaving?" She hoped if that was the case it wasn't because of her. She was the reason they all got together after all.
"Saeran is tending to them. I just wanted to make sure you were alright."
Nodding, she moved to sit beside him as he sat on the edge of the bed.
"I'm fine, just got really nauseous. It will happen for a while."
"I…I know. I worry is all."
Kissing his cheek she smiled. "Don't be sorry. We appreciate it." Hearing his nervous laughter she took his hand. "What frightens you love?"
Letting go of her hand he stood up. "Nothing. It's nothing. Don't worry about it. If you need anything please let me know." Leaving her be he went to save Saeran, knowing he hated hosting. MC was going to find out what scared him, she wasn't going to let him off the hook. She hated seeing him so nervous and scared.
