"I can't believe you're moving out. I'll be so lonely without you."
Hyunjin pouted as he watched Jisung put his last remaining belongings in a box.
One more night, then he'd officially not live in dorm room number 308 anymore.
"You can always visit! You have to! It'll be hard to get used to not having you as the best room mate."
"But you have Minho, right?"
"Yeah.. Still. Not my omega bestie."
"Oh Sungie."
Hyunjin let himself flop down on Jisung's bed, pulling the younger boy closer when the squirrel hybrid cuddled up to his side.
Time had changed everything so fast.
He still remembered the day he had met the small, shy omega for the first time.
How Jisung had barely managed to say a whole sentence in front of the white shepherd hybrid, too scared and blinded by the false truths his parents had put in his head.
How he had always made himself dinner after making sure Hyunjin was in his room and asleep.
And now he was here, his head resting on the older's chest with his hands rubbing gentle circles on his baby bump, his eyes closed as he inhaled his roommate's calming scent.
"I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too, little squirrel. And this little pumpkin."
Hyunjin chuckled and poked the brunette's adorable tummy, making him giggle.
"Jinnie?"
"Hm?"
"Baby's awake."
Jisung shyly admitted as he looked up at his friend, waiting for a reaction.
And when Hyunjin smiled at him with those warm, blue eyes and ran his fingers through the younger's hair, Jisung grabbed his other hand and placed it on top of his belly where his little bun was currently pressing their tiny feet happily against their mommy's tummy.
"Hi there. Such an energetic little squirrel, hm?"
Hyunjin chuckled when he felt a small foot kick against his palm.
His shy, small roommate was really having a baby.
"I'm not even sure if.. If baby will be a squirrel. I mean.. It could be a panther hybrid too, right? And the doctor said that since my baby is so big, it's probably taking after Minho."
"No matter what, they'll be very very cute. And you'll be a good mother, okay? The best this little bean could wish for."
Jisung really hoped Hyunjin was right.
His child was right there, wriggling around in his tummy as if kicking their little feet was the most fun thing in the world.
And still the little squirrel boy felt like he knew almost nothing about being a mother.
He didn't even really know how that'd work with.. The birth.
The doctor had told them a natural birth would be too dangerous for him and their little bun so he should think about a c-section.
But Jisung didn't even know what a c-section meant.
All he knew was that there was a baby growing in his tummy, half squirrel hybrid, half panther hybrid, probably an alpha and maybe a boy.
And most importantly:
Minho's child.
It was their baby,
their little bun.
"Sweet one, what are you doing?"
The alpha tilted his head as he watched Jisung stand in front of their big mirror, his shirt lifted up.
He was so lost in his thoughts while he let his fingertips trance over his stretched skin that he didn't even notice Minho coming closer and jumped slightly when two arms embraced him gently.
"Min.."
"Hm?"
"I have weird red stripes on my tummy. They're ugly and feel weird.."
"Baby, they're just stretch marks. It's normal."
"Stretch marks?"
"Mhm."
Minho smiled at him through the mirror as he rested his chin on the younger's head and placed his hands over Jisung's to stop him from poking the red marks.
"It's because the little bun is growing so well and your skin needs to adjust. It gets stretched so these marks happen. And I don't think they're ugly, sweet one. They tell us our little bun is growing well, hm?"
The ravenette placed a soft kiss on the omega's squishy cheek when Jisung only sighed.
"Will he get a lot bigger?"
"I'm not sure. But there are still three more months left, he'll definitely grow a bit more, sweetie."
It'd be a lie to say that Minho hadn't worried about this already too, especially after the last doctor's appointment.
Their child's size wouldn't only make a natural birth dangerous, Jisung had a very hard time carrying their baby too considering his small frame.
Physically and probably mentally too.
The stretch marks, the sudden changes in his body but also in his way of living, the fear of how it'd be when their little bun would finally be here.
And he was so scared to see how Jisung would get more and more uncomfortable the closer he got to his due date.
