Heaven and Earth || Gojo Satoru

Chapter 8

The next morning, my morning sickness kicked in again.

Hastily getting out of bed, I rushed to the bathroom and threw myself over the toilet bowl.

Although I was excited that we were expecting, I was already starting to despise this whole pregnancy.

Once I finished, I sat back down, disgusting with the lingering taste of bile while a sleepy Gojo made his appearance.

With messy hair, Gojo rubbed his tired eyes before letting out a big yawn and squatting beside me.

"Is the baby causing trouble again?" Satoru questioned.

"What do you think, Sherlock?" I glared at him.

But all he did was smile and placed a hand over my belly to caress. 

"Stop it, lil' mochi. Your mommy is already through so much to have you and this is how you repay her?"

"Mochi?" I repeated with a raised brow, "That's the nickname you're giving our child?"

"Why not?" He looked back at me.

"Well--"

Another wave of nausea struck me and immediately I lunged back over bowl.

While I threw up the vile taste of throwup, I barely noticed my hair being pulled back.

Although Gojo was always childish and bothersome, he always had a soft side that not many notice.

And I was glad that I got the chance to get close to him despite despising him back then.

Once I finished, I pulled away from the toilet while Gojo smiled.

"Hey~ How are you--"

"Shut your trap," I growled at him. "You're responsible for my misery for the next 9 months."

"Ooh~ Pregnancy mood swings! At least we know--"

I shot my husband another glare and before I knew it, he kept quiet and stood up.

"I'll make breakfast," He chuckle and planted a kiss on my forehead.

After Satoru left, I cleaned up after myself and climbed back into bed for a moment. Laying for a hit, I reached out for my phone when I suddenly realized what day it was.

It was Haibara Yu's dead anniversary.

An old high school classmate of mine and Nanami.

I sighed and tossed my phone aside.

I had been so caught up with class and my pregnancy that I forgot to prepare for his death anniversary.

While lost in my thoughts, the fire alarm suddenly went off.

I frantically got up and rushed towards the kitchen to find a naked Gojo in an apron.

Greeted by his bare butt, Gojo turned around with an affectionate smile.

His smile was contagious, smiling from ear to ear while his bright eyes glistened and hair still messy.

Not to mention his lean muscular figure flexed as the sunlight lightly grazed his skin.

However, I snapped myself out of it as the smoke appeared from behind him.

"I've got everything under control! Just sit and look pretty!" Gojo says while using a towel to fan out the smoke.

"Seriously?" I made my way to him. "You almost burned the house down-- Because of toast?!"

I took out a burnt slice of toast from the toaster and then noticed the also burnt scrambled eggs.
