Catch Me (P.Sh) [Sequel]

Developing Papa Hoon

2027

After we had finished the tour and announced my retirement from the group Sunghoon and I had gotten some time off together, staying in our small bubble of happiness at the pure thought of a small baby on the way.

"You really wanna do this?" I let out a small laugh at him as I folded the clothes from the clean laundry basket while Sunghoon just eagerly nodded at me.

"I already arranged it," he stated and I paused before turning to him with one hand on my hip, "whoops?"

"Look, I don't know about you but I have a lot of trust in our parenting abilities," I admitted and he just nodded before rushing up and softly placed his hands on my slightly swollen waist.

"So do I," he hummed, "but you know... I want to learn everything as fast as possible, so that I don't have to learn slowly in between rehearsals, practices, recordings and all that stuff. The mom will be there to guide us through how to do everything. I just wanna be sure that I'm good enough to be a dad."

"Of course you are good enough to be a dad," I let out a small laugh at him and he quickly ran a hand through his hair.

"Please..." he whispered and I looked over at him, "I really want to feel confident in this. I really don't want to mess anything up."

"You're actually serious about this," I slowly realized the more I looked at him, while he just nodded at me, "you really want to hire a parenting teacher?" he nodded, "and you want to take time off....?"

"From now on and at least until the baby is five months old," he hummed at me with a small smile.

"Hoon... that's..." I trailed off, to which he quickly finished my sentence for me.

"Exactly 10 months, I know," he hummed at me, "I agreed with the company that I'll come in and record my vocals for any albums, songs and all that. But I won't be at that many rehearsals or music shows... I'll just... work on half-time."

I let out a small sigh as I sat down in the nearest chair, running a hand through my hair. Like I know he really wants to assure he's a good dad, but I just don't like the idea of robbing Engenes of all the content he could be a part off.

"I'm gonna need for you to turn off all that logical thinking that's happening in your head right now," he warned as I glanced over at him, "we're both adults, Hun. This is the right thing to do... and I'm gonna do it, because I love you and that little one," he remarked and pointed to my small bump, "got it?"

"Yeah, yeah," I sighed with a small nod, "I love you too."

"And you've already suffered through four months, where I've been at work, now I'm suffering through the next nine with you," he let out a small laugh, folding the last piece of clothing in the laundry basket, "and then... I might have some baby gifts from specifically Sunoo and Heeseung hyung laying somewhere."

"Those two," I let out a small laugh of disbelief, "if I didn't know better I would think they were the ones getting a kid."

"Oh I think that's how they think of it," Sunghoon assured me, "they're gushing more about the baby than I am, it's embarrassing!"

"I know, I heard," I let out a small laugh while I nodded my head, "heard it on the last radio show you guys were on."

Sunghoon only let out a groan of dismay at the thought of the two others sounding more excited for the baby than him, while on national radio. He dragged his feet over towards me and just brushed my hair out of my face before pecking my forehead.

"You're gonna be a good dad," I assured Sunghoon softly.

"I know," he hummed as I grabbed onto his hand and he just softly smiled down at me.

"You nannied the maknaes for years, Nanny Hoon should be just as good as papa Hoon," I let out a small laugh to which Sunghoon scrunched up his nose, "designated Nanny."

"I'm convinced I still have mental scars from sharing a room with those three," he remarked and I let out a small laugh, "now... I'm gonna go over and make dinner, because Jay taught me that. What do you want?"

"I'm kinda craving pancakes," I admitted and Sunghoon just nodded down at me, "you know with fruits, ice cream, all the sweet stuff we couldn't eat?"

"You're insane," he simply shook his head in disbelief as he turned and looked over towards the kitchen, "do we have ice cream?"

"I think Sunoo brought me some Mint Choco last time he visited," I nodded and Sunoo immediately frowned down at me, "I can't help it okay? I don't know why my tastebuds are so different all of a sudden!"

"This is gonna end in a divorce," Sunghoon murmured as he walked over towards the kitchen.

"Yah! Don't say that!" I loudly exclaimed as he only let out a small laugh and sent me a smile over his shoulder, "what if I become stressed and lose the baby?" I muttered and rubbed my stomach carefully.

"With the amount of stress I've been taken off your shoulders lately it should be a miracle if you manage to lose the baby," he reminded me as he opened the fridge to get the ingredients for pancakes, "oh, and I don't know if I told you, but mom stopped by the other day with that tea you like so much. You were napping at the time and I couldn't wake you up, and I'm pretty sure that if I had done so, my mom would've murdered me right then and there."

"I love your mom," I simply stated as I got up from my chair and grabbed the laundry we had folded, beginning to carry it into the bedroom, to arrange it in the closet (which were mainly dominated by Sunghoon's clothes, which you also used on most occasions).

Once I finished putting away laundry I walked back to the kitchen, watching Sunghoon flip over pancakes, a kitchen towel laying over one of his shoulders for whenever he had to wipe some dirt off or wipe his hands.

"She also gave you some maternity clothes from the time she was pregnant, but I doubt you'll use any of it," Sunghoon added on as he glanced over at me, "you find a joy in wearing my clothes anyways... and somehow it still fits."

"My bump isn't that big yet," I defended with a small gasp while he just let out a small laugh at me, "you might love me but you love teasing way more."

"Hey... you love the people you tease the most," he reminded and puckered his lips out towards me.

I let out a small sigh and jokingly rolled my eyes before walking over and pecking his lips, earning a dazzling smile from the handsome man beside me as I did so.
