Eijirou sniffed and leaned against the wall, taking a moment to process the information before he had to leave the bathroom and tell Mina.

He should be elated, right? Starting a family was always /somewhere/ on the To-Do List for them, but it never seemed like the right time. They wanted to save, wanted to make sure the agency and their careers were both in a good spot.

Would Katsuki be upset? Were the side kicks ready to pick up the slack while Eijirou was away? Could they afford this?

Without his mate to quell the anxiety and brainstorm solutions to the unknowns, Eijirou began to panic. But more than anything, Eijirous omega was distressed. Katsuki was being robbed of something-- and both he and his Omega /hated/ that.

Katsuki would want to be here for this, to gloat and praise Eijirou. Reassure him that even if the timing wasn't perfect, they'd make it work.

/"Because we're gonna be the best goddamn parents"/

At least thats what Eijirou /imagined/ Katsuki would say though a trademarked, fanged smile, while holding his face and kissing him all over.

He wiped his nose and got up, giving the note attached to the mirror one last glance before swinging the door open to face his friend.

Eijirou held the test up so Mina could see the little blue plus sign that confirmed he was, indeed carrying a pup.

Mina looked conflicted, like she couldn't tell whether to congratulate Eijirou or comfort him. He opened his mouth a few times attempting to form a response but instead his lip wobbled as tears prickled the edges of his eyes.

"I miss Katsuki." He choked, bubbling over into a sob as Mina quickly moved to hig him.

"I know." She whispered, rubbing large circles on his back as Eijirou rested his forehead against her shoulder. "He's gonna be so proud--"

Eijirou's hormonal brain was suddenly kicking up into over drive, a mess of anxious, invasive thoughts swirling into vortex and consuming him, "What if something happens to him and he /never/ gets to know?" "Eijirou--" "He's on a dangerous mission-- the Pup--"

"Thats /not/ going to happen." Mina let out a laugh, releasing a calming scent to help with the Omegas anxiety, "Do you really think Katsuki would let something as lame as /dying/ keep him from coming home to his mate?"

Eijirou sniffed and snaked his hands around her delicate waist, "I guess he'd kill death before it got to him, huh?"

"Yeah, exactly. He'd challenge death to a fight and /win/." Mina pulled back just enough to card hot pink fingernails through his hair. "You should at least text him--"

Eijirou shook his head, "I don't want to tell him over text, thats so shitty."

"So you're just going to wait until he comes home--?" Mina bristled slightly. As an alpha, Eijirou’s sentiment probably bothered her.

"I dont /know/" Eijirou pouted "I've been sending him texts here and there, but he hasn't responded or read rhem. I just-- I'm so tired..." another wave of teared trailed down his cheeks and Mina immeaditly yielded.

"Go take a nap, I'll stay here and get dinner ready." "You dont have to do that--" "Go." She pointed towards the bedroom. Eijirou obeyed with a huff, climbing into his nest and pressing a scented blanket to his face.

Soft, warm, comfortable-- but nothing compared to the feeling of home Katsuki's actual presence brought him. It smelled like his mate just enough to satiate his omega and make him feel less alone-- even if just for a little while.

"I can tell you're gonna be fiesty, 'specially with how much puking you've been makin me do." He circled the area a few times with his open palm before rolling on his side

"Hopefully you look like me... your daddy would be a little too smug if you look like him."

The thought of having a big Katsuki and a little Katsuki working in sync to make his life more chaotic was something that simultaneously excited and exhausted him.

He took a long drag of his mates scent off the blanket wrapped around him and managed to drift off into a dreamless sleep.

He woke a few hours later nauseated and a little crampy. This whole pregnancy thing was a lot more uncomfortable than he ever imagined.

He reached for his phone to shoot Katsuki a quick update on his day-- leaving out the whole /I've been sick as a dog because im carrying your pup, you dumb alpha/ part.

Messaging without a response felt a little like speaking into the void-- but it made Eijirou feel better and hopefully when his mate got a moment to read the messages, it would make him feel good, too.

His alpha was fiercely protective, and Eijirou didn't want to give Katsuki any reason to be distracted on a mission he desperately needed him to come home from.

The week passed, every day starting with an explosive bout of morning sickness before he could gain his composer and eat a meal for two.

Mina an Tetsu remained the only two who knew about his condition, and they made sure to keep him company in the afternoons and evenings.

But when night came, the crushing vulnerability couplee with the need to be held and comforted had his omega going nuts, and it seemed nearly impossible to go on like this with no word from his alpha.

On Mina's urging he decided to go stay for a bit with his mother's. It wasn't a replacement for his mate, but at least he'd feel /safe/.

Reluctantly, Eijirou packed a few suit cases, full of fresh scented blankets and clothes for the nest he would make at his moms. He didn't want to leave the home he and Katsuki shared, but he also didn't want to be alone.

The whole car ride he was a bundle of nerves and nausea. His morning sickness had been particularly bad that morning, and he'd cried into the toilet before flushing it all down. At least his omega mama would be there for advice and comfort to navigate his pregnancy.

He hoped he wasnt in trouble for not telling them right away.

As soon as Eijirou knocked on the door with a slew of suit cases and two scent patches, his alpha ma yanked him inside and demanded to know /exactly/ what happened.

"Im gonna fucking castrate him--"

"Ma, wait--"

"What did he do?!"

"Nothing! Its not--"

Eijirou’s omega mom came to the rescue. She was petitie-- his muscles dwarfed her im comparison, but that never stopped her from swaddling him.

"Tell us, pup."

Eijirou hesitated for a moment, allowing the sweet, familiar scent of his mama to calm his heart beat before answering.

"I'm pregnant." It came out more sad than he actually felt, and his Ma furrowed her eyebrows.

"And Katsuki left for his mission any way?"

"He didn't know... I found out about three weeks after he left." The sniffling started again as his mama held him a little closer, "Can I stay here? I dont want to be alone."

They ushered him in and set to work making him a meal, complete with steak and eggs. "No barbecue sauce! I'll seriously hurl." He laughed as his ma shook her head in sympathy.

They chatted for a bit, his mama insisting on making a doctors appointment to make sure Eijirou and the pup were both in good health. He promised with a yawn, and insisted on going to make his nest.

Really, both of his mothers were extremely excited and willing to help with whatever Eijirou needled-- but he needed a little bit to himself.

Again, he was feeling a wave of disappointment and uneasiness. This was something /both/ of them should've been present for-- telling family and friends /together./

Instead, here he was alone, braving morning sickness, the cramping and breaking the news in a way that was more bitter than sweet to him.

He sprawled out in his new nest, surrounded by both his mothers scent and Katsukis-- for now he felt better. He made a plan to call Mitsuki later that night and let her know-- he figured it'd only be right to keep his mates family in the loop, too

Eijirou opened his phone out of habit to look for some sort of response from Katsuki and smiled widely to himself. For the past few weeks, every one of Eijirou’s texts had sat stagnant and unread by the other man on the other end.

But today they were all marked as read-- That was a good sign, right? It meant Katsuki was okay.

In his excitement, the omega quickly typed up another update 'I'm visiting my moms.' Would that make Katsuki worry?

'Everything's good. Side kicks are kicking ass. Mina's been coming over a lot. Love you.' He sent the message with a twinge of guilt. It felt like /lying/ even if he wasn't /technically./

With a sigh Eijirou turned on his back and placed his hand over his tummy right where he felt his pup growing. He absently rubbed over the expanse of his abdomen, a little shocked to feel his abs already beginning to soften.

Man, he was really gonna miss those

He hoped Katsuki wouldn't mind them being gone, either.

He opened up the pictures stored in his phone, absently scrolling until he got to the album filled titled "Katsuki💕" and opened it up.

Immediately his stomach fluttered and goosebumps broke out over his skin. Just the sight of his alpha captured during a brief moment in time, adorned with observant eyes and a strong jawline was enough to send heat down to the tips of Eijirou’s toes.

He was suddenly feeling so touch starved, so incredibly overwhelmed with need that he began to itch. As he thumbed through the pictures, his omega clawed at the inside of his skull, mewling and feral. /Want want want want/

Eijirou gnawed at his bottom lip and squeezed his thighs together-- God damn his mate was fucking perfect.
