I own nothing of Free! or it's characters.
I am so sorry for having this late, a third of the time I haven't posted was debating to actually continue this. The rest of the time was just being overwhelmed with friends, school, family, and other personal issues. Although, the rest of the drabbles will be out of order, I'm back!
It had been 5 hours, 300 minutes. Family and friends, all crowded in the white pristine waiting room.
Haru stared blatantly at Rin as he and Seijuro both paced. Makoto leaned on Sousuke while poor Rei and Nagisa had to be escorted out due to their loudness.
Gou Mikoshiba was 29 years old and she was having a child, a living, breathing human. A doctor walked out, clad with the mask over her mouth, the whole works.
Her eyes crinkled like she was smiling, "Mikoshiba-san," The ball of red stopped pacing but looked 10 times more anxious, "she's ready."
He jogged forward and the remaining four wouldn't see him for another 4 hours.
Rin sat with a thump on the chair next to Haru.
Sousuke nudged Makoto from his perch.
"Makoto, let's go." The brunette looked wide eyed before understanding.
So the loving giants left the other two men to their privacy.
The tall pair walked aimlessly before making their way to the cafeteria. Makoto slumped into a plastic seat, watching as Sousuke got some coffee.
Dazed, he sighed.
The teal eyed man came up and tapped him on the shoulder. Makoto jumped to see his concerned boyfriend.
"W-what is it?" Sousuke chuckled before taking a seat next to Makoto, "I was going to ask the same thing."
Makoto looked down regretfully before speaking, "I was thinking about Gou," a 'Hmm' could be heard, "Sousuke, we can't have children." Next came the sputter of surprise.
Makoto stared dejectedly at the off-white table in front of them. A moment passed before Sousuke sighed.
"Then we'll adopt." Makoto eyes widened and his mouth gaped at his nonchalance.
"W-what?" He turned sharply.
"Or we'll get a dog," Sousuke nonchalantly took a sip from his coffee.
"W-wait,"
"Or a cat, I know you took care of one during high school." The taller one shrugged and drank more of his coffee while the brunette continued to sputter.
"Y-yea, but-"
"Makoto," The brunette paused while Sousuke looked him straight into the wide emerald eyes.
"We'll figure it out."
It wasn't like Sousuke's words vanquished all of Makoto's fears but it helped to know he wasn't alone. Not anymore, not with Sousuke.
Makoto looked less flustered but his blush stayed like a stain.
He smiled his dazzling smile then rested his head on Sousuke's shoulder.
