All is Fair in Love and War (Alastor x Reader)

Chapter 61

"What have you planned for today?" Alastor asked, walking with you down the hotel hallway that lead to the entertainment room. You shrugged as you looked up at your fiancé.

"Haven't decided. Probably read for a bit and then go bother Husk or Angel, whoever I run into first."

"Please refrain from going shot for shot with Husk this time, seeing as there's a little one involved now." He snickered. You rolled your eyes and playfully hit his arm.

"Yeah let me willingly give our baby a predisposition to alcohol, what could go wrong?" You scoffed. "You know I'm not intentionally gonna do anything to harm their development, come on."

"I know sweetheart, just teasing." He grinned down at you and booped your nose, causing your face to scrunch up a little as you giggled at him. "Well I hope you have fun. I'll be in my office if you need me, darling" he said, taking your hand in his and kissing your knuckles.

You smiled at him as you watched him walk out. Rounding behind the exit while his shadow hesitantly lingered in the doorway behind him, looking at you with an innocent smile. You giggled and blew it a kiss, causing the shadow to sigh dreamily with heart eyes as it finally left to follow his master.

"What a cutie." You hummed to yourself. You then sighed as you glanced about the empty room and sashayed over to the loveseat. You summoned a book with a wave of your hand and made yourself comfortable. Before you could even open it however, a loud voice startled you and almost made you jump right off the couch and onto the floor.

"Did you find out?"

"Son of a-" you gasped, looking over at the source to see it was Charlie in the doorway. Poking her head around the corner, Vaggie and Molly doing the same beneath her. You chuckled softly with relief as you held your hand over your heart. "Will you keep your voice down?!"

"But did you??" Molly asked.

You glanced around to make sure no one else was within earshot and then giddily then waved at trio of demonesses, beckoning them into the room with you. "Come here. I'll tell you."

The ladies scampered in and jogged over to the couch, Molly sitting beside you while Charlie and Vaggie sat across on the larger sofa. You leaned in, seeing them do the same as they anticipated you to speak. You took a deep breath, almost not able to hold back your smile as you spoke quietly. "Yes. I'm pregnant."

You couldn't stifle your giggles as you watched their eyes grow wide. Mouths agape with astonishment and disbelief, staring at you in awe. "Really? Like, it wasn't a false-" Vaggie began asking, but you gently interrupted.

"This morning Al and I went down to an urgent care facility and had them do a more thorough exam of their own. After a piss test and a blood test, it's confirmed and official. We're having a baby, I have an appointment with an OB next week. They suspect I'm about 7 weeks along but we'll find out for sure at the appointment."

"Ahhhhh!!!!!" Charlie squealed, bouncing in her seat and grinning from ear to ear. "Awhhhh Y/n! You and Al are going to make such wonderful parents. How does he feel about it?"

"Well, it was definitely a surprise to him." You admitted. "I almost fainted when I told him, I was so nervous. Literally a minute after I read the positive result he came home, and I just panicked. I couldn't hide it from him but I was so nervous about the unknown outcome I just started balling right in front of him. Poor guy didn't know what to think until I told him."

"He wasn't upset, was he?" Vaggie asked.

"No, he was actually kind of excited if you can believe that."
