Y/n's POV

It's been a about 3 months since we found out about my pregnancy, and boy did I get crankier every single day since... Thankfully Pedri has also transformed into an even more patient saint. Every time I have a craving or my mood swings get the best of me he always seem to just shrug it off and gives me a smile.

About 2 weeks ago:

"Mi Amor, what's wrong?" Pedri finally wakes up from my constant shifting in bed, to my defense, I am feeling extremely uncomfortable with my growing belly and my back is starting to kill the living life out of me.

"Nothing...it's ju..." I stopped myself, hesitant to tell him my newest and weirdest craving to date at 4AM knowing that he has to get up at 6AM for practice. The team has a few more days to train and prepare for the Champions League final and after years of waiting for this moment, their hard work finally paid off and got a spot to play the final against Real Madrid. So yeah.. my weird craving is the least important thing at the moment...

"Come on, mi Amor... Tell me and I shall make it happen." Pedri urges as he lets out a big yawn and only having one of his eyes struggling to keep open, "You know I won't be able to go back to sleep peacefully knowing my two princesas are unsatisfied."

"How are you so sure that she's a princesa, Pepi... Our little nugget might turn out to be a little Pedri too" I chuckled as I stare closely to one of my favorite human beings, "but.. If you insist, I have been dreaming of having some instant noodles with a side of peanut butter and jelly... but I know you have to rest more so we can just sort out my cravings later, no worries.."

To my surprise, both Pedri's eyes are now wide open and his whole body starts shaking from laughter, "Really... I know I'm weird but this is your fault too!"

He trying his best to compose himself after sensing that his pregnant girlfriend's mood is starting to shift against his favor, "Lo siento, mi amor... It's my fault I know, I know.. but you love us anyway!"

"That's unfair! Stop pouting and giving me those cute eyes!" I went closer to Pedri to cuddle as I momentarily forget my stupid cravings, wondering what have I done so well to deserve this man.

Back to Present:

We never made it out of bed that night two weeks ago to satisfy my cravings, instead, I insisted to stay in bed longer, there's always another chance since I seem to craving something - anything - at this point. I hear the front door of our apartment open and then closed followed by Pedri's voice, who I hear is shuffling something in his hands as well, "Mi Amor!"

"I'm in the bedroom, Pepi! No need to shout!" Not a second later Pedri opens the bedroom door with a paper bag in hand and a proud look on his face, "I got you some treats, mi vida. Just as I promised"

"Aww.. Gracias, Amor! By the way, have you spoken to Gavi recently?" It's been a few days since I had a catch up call with Leah or Gavi, asides from me being pre-occupied with preparing the nursery for our baby, soothing my lower back pain has also been taking a big chunk of my time. I would have never imagine this kind of pain, even after hearing it from other people.

"Yeah, lover boy has been going to training in a great mood.. I would say the best mood I've seen him in ever since I've known him! Thank God they were able to get over their fears and Gavi actually found some guts to pursue Leah." Pedri responds as he flops his whole body down next to me, and even though he has a big smile on his face, it is still evident that he is exhausted.

It's been crazy for me carrying our baby, but I can't help but feel bad for him. He's been playing as my great boyfriend, dad, late night errand boy, and gossip buddy, plus the best midfielder in Barça for the last weeks. I took a long look at him while he fills me in with what he's been hearing from Gavi and Leah.

"What's wrong, mi amor? You've been staring at me this whole time!" I smile at him while admiring the obvious love from his eyes, and for the millionth time in my life, I can't help but get overwhelmed with emotions from the love I have in front of me.

The kind of love I never thought I deserved, but somehow, because of this beautiful man's love for me, I got convinced that I am deserving of him. Of our little family.

And I thank my stars for aligning me with Pedri.

Author's Note:
I can't believe it's been so long! 🥲 I just want to say that I apologize for this last chapter and for the amount of time I took to just post this. Life has been crazy (and it still is) but I'm finally ready to write again. I know the ending of this might be too abrupt or doesn't make sense, im sorry!

But onto other things! Im contemplating writing another fic! This time with Gavi and OC! Would anybody be interested?

Thank you for reading this fanfic!!!!
