This is me trying to catch up T.T

Day 10: Snowy day. Shiro and Allura wake up and find out that it had snowed all night. Allura has something to tell Shiro...

Enjoy!

When Shiro woke up that morning, the bed was colder than usual. He put on a grey sweater before leaving the bedroom to find the princess. He found his wife staring outside the kitchen window.

"This looks nothing like the fire that falls on Altean skies" she said with a small laugh, mesmerized by the snowflakes' descent from the sky. "You don't have snow in Altea?" Shiro asked.

"It's very rare. Although I know other planets have snow, I've never witnessed it from my own eyes." He wrapped his arms around her, laying his head on her shoulder. "You know, if you get ready within half an hour, it would give me enough time to make us breakfast and give you a little something I brought you." Allura didn't need to hear it twice: she unwrapped herself from Shiro's grasp and made her way towards the washroom, stopping halfway. She retraced her steps, gave him a quick peck on the cheek before heading back to get ready.

An hour later, Allura and Shiro were walking hand in hand in the fresh snow of the park near their appartment. Turns out the surprise he got her was a beautiful blue coat that ended just above the knee, sturdy black winter boots and a set of pink gloves, a scarf and a hat. Shiro Kept her close: she was so busy looking up at the snow that this distraction would have made her fall on several occasions. But there were moments where the black Paladin couldn't help but to look at her instead of where they were headed. Her cheeks lightly wet from the snowflakes that melted on her skin, her misty smile, the way her eyes followed one snowflake at the time...

"Why are you so beautiful?" He whispered.

His voice took Allura out of her daze and she stared at the black Paladin, processing what he just said. Her Altean marking starting glowing. "Oh, are you blushing?" Shiro asked while trying to get a better view. She only turned further away from him, which made him laugh before he pulled her gently so that they kept walking.

After a while, Princess Allura spoke. "I'm really glad this planet is my new home, it really is lovely," she said. Shiro stopped to face her. "I'm really glad you feel at home here," he simply said before laying a kiss on her lips. Distracted by the sensation, it was too late when she felt Shiro lift her up bridal style only to make her fall in the nearby snowbank. shock made way to joy as she laughed and picked up some snow to throw it in his face for revenge. After wiping the snow from his face, Shiro pulled Allura closer and they layed there, watching the fluffy snow fall.

"You know you shouldn't do that anymore," Allura said.

"What, pick you up to throw you in the snow?" Shiro asked with a teasing tone. "The snow is too cold for you?"

"Not exactly," she replied while turning to face him, "it wouldn't be good for our child."

Shiro nodded. "Wait what?" He suddenly said, the words of the Altean finally sinking in. "Our child? Allura are you pregnant? YOU'RE PREGNANT?" She couldn't hold in her giggles as she nodded her head excitedly. Shiro quickly got up, helped her get up as well before pulling her into his arms. "Allura you are pregnant? With our child? You have a baby in your stomach?" Tears were now streaming down his face. All this time he had told himself that they would never be able to conceive, that Alteans were biologically superior to humans. That they did something to him while he was a Galra prisoner.

He was wrong.

"Shiro," she said while wiping her own tears away, "Shiro you're going to be a father." He leaned his head into the crook of her neck, trying to grasp the whirlwind of emotions. "Shiro are you okay? It looks like the storm is starting to get worse we should head home..." He nodded, wiping the tears away from his face, Shiro took a deep breath and looked at Allura with a smile on his face that could only be described as pure love. "Let's go home and start getting ready for our baby," he said.

As they walked home and the snow intensified, Shiro and Allura didn't say a word. Snowy days like this one would always remind them of the moment their lives took them on a new journey.

I spent too much time on the "pregnancy announcement" side of YouTube hahaha T.T

Anyways! Sorry for the delay, let me know what you think!
