The phone calls that had come over the past week to the couple had been nothing but saddening. Tendou had finally hit his thirty weeks mark and Ushijima had dropped volleyball completely, going partially online and only going to school on certain days. As soon as teammates realized he was serious and found that team jobs had been changed they freaked out.

Tendou was the ones getting calls and not Ushijima though. Everyone was getting mad that he was pregnant and he'd gotten a call from random students cussing him out and wishing harm upon him. He eventually locked his phone away and cried against Ushijima's chest, whimpering.

He didn't want anyone to hate his son because of the way Ushijima quit. Ushijima didn't want to play volleyball anyways anymore so why was it his fault? Ushijima had found a purpose. He was finally happy.

"Love?! Where did you go?!"

Tendou looked up from the floor, brows furrowed. "My room!"

Ushijima found him and leaned down. "What's going on?"

"Well I was trying to look for cheap cribs but then I got a call and my back hurts way too much to stand up."

Ushijima helped him up, leading him to get on the bed. "What's wrong? Was the call another one of the rude ones?"

Tendou stared at him before whining softly. "Yes."

Ushijima sighed, taking his phone and setting it aside. "Don't listen love."

"I'm trying not to but they've started sending pictures to my accounts online of really gory things and I can't handle that." Tendou huffed. "I'm too tired from answering them all night. I don't want to go to the doctor's appointment."

"You need to. We need to know if he's still healthy, remember?"

Tendou groaned softly. "I remember." He leaned into Ushijima, huffing softly. "Fuck."

Ushijima grabbed a new shirt and a pair of pants. He helped Tendou into them before holding him, rocking slowly. Tendou wanted nothing more than to lay down and rest but Ushijima wasn't having it, getting him to his appointment.

Etsumi was healthy as always, if not a little lighter than expected but Tendou and his son were okay. He made Ushijima leave the room for the more invasive part of his appointment, knowing Ushijima wouldn't like watching this part.

Tendou came out of his appointment needing food and was taken to lunch and then finally to the store to look for a crib he liked. Ushijima got it and they headed home so Tendou could take his afternoon nap.

While Tendou slept Ushijima kept his phone to stop him from waking up from the calls during the school's lunch break. Eventually he noticed one of the calls coming from a certain orange haired male and paused, deciding whether or not to answer it.

"Babe!" Ushijima looked up and got up quickly to see what was wrong. Tendou smiled at him from their bed. "I would love if you set up the crib."

"Right now?"

"Soon. I can help."

Ushijima nodded. "Hinata called you."

"Ugh. What does that shrimp want?"

"I'm not sure, I didn't answer it."

"Babe you can answer my calls, it's okay." Tendou took his phone back and called Hinata, leaning back in bed. Ushijima got into bed with him, wrapping his arms around him and snuggling him. "Hey Hinata."

"Tendou-San! I heard you and Ushijima-San quit volleyball! What happened? Are you guys crazy or something?"

Tendou laughed. He rubbed Ushijima's hair, leaning into him. "No, no. We're not crazy. Well Wakatoshi isn't. I'm expecting a baby in a few weeks."

"WHAT?! A BABY?!"

Tendou flinched before laughing louder. "Yeah! A baby! Crazy, right?"

"That's so awesome! I thought you guys just quit randomly."

"Yeah I haven't posted anything. We've gotten some pretty bad responses already."

"Why the hell would you get bad responses?"

"People are mad. People can stay mad honestly." Tendou wiggled a bit and sighed.

"When are you gonna have the baby?"

"Nine weeks. So two months from now."

"Wow."

"Yeah. Was that it?"

"Kinda. Am I allowed to tell my team? I think they'd be excited."

"Go ahead dude. I don't care who knows."

"Oh cool! What's the baby gonna be?"

"A boy."

"Man I wish Natsu was a boy sometimes. She is so much to handle."

"She seemed nice when I saw her." Tendou felt Ushijima's hand on his stomach. He kissed his hair, smiling. Ushijima was so sweet.

"She's stupid. Anyways I have to get back to practice. Good luck with the baby!"

"Thanks!" Tendou hung up before turning and kissing Ushijima over and over again. "Ugh babe you're so cute I could just gobble you up."

Ushijima laughed, leaning away a bit. Tendou went for his neck, kissing the skin over and over. Ushijima giggled softly, leaning back into him. "That tickles Satori."

"Good."

Ushijima lowered his head. "Would you like to go on a walk? It's warm outside."

Tendou gasped. "I'd love to go on a walk! We have to set up the crib though."

"After."

Tendou giggled. He huffed again before quickly using the bathroom and then going outside to walk with Ushijima. It was warm today and he felt safe.

"Is he kicking?"

"He's sleeping right now." Tendou laughed quietly. "He will definitely be awake in a few hours when I need to eat."

Ushijima squeezed Tendou's hand lightly. He looked over. "I love you."

Tendou inhaled deeply, looking over. "I love you too Wakatoshi."

Ushijima smiled and kissed his hand before gesturing back home. "Would you like to go set up the crib?"

"In a bit." Tendou smiled at the setting sun. His mother would be home soon and they could eat like a family. He could not wait to eat with his little boy.
