Shadows to Light: A Family's Journey.
The day starts like any other. You and Sephiroth wake up in your shared apartment, sunlight gently filtering through the curtains. As you stretch and yawn, you feel a strange flutter in your stomach, a feeling you've been experiencing for a few days now. You've been feeling unusually tired and a bit queasy in the mornings, but today, the thought hits you with the force of a revelation: you might be pregnant.
Sephiroth, already up and getting dressed, notices the pensive look on your face. His silver hair gleams in the morning light, and his eyes, usually so calm and collected, now hold a hint of concern.
"Are you feeling alright, Y/N?" he asks, his voice soft but laced with worry.
You take a deep breath and decide to share your suspicion. "Sephiroth, I think... I think I might be pregnant."
His eyes widen slightly, and for a moment, he looks completely unguarded. It's a rare sight, seeing the great Sephiroth caught off guard. He moves closer, sitting beside you on the bed, his hand finding yours.
"We need to be sure," he says, his tone careful and measured.
You nod, and later that day, you both head to the store, buying a few pregnancy tests. Back home, you take the tests, and the waiting feels like an eternity. Sephiroth stays close, his presence a comforting anchor. When the tests confirm your suspicion, showing the unmistakable positive lines, you feel a mix of joy and anxiety.
Sephiroth's reaction is more complex. He stares at the tests, his face a mask of unreadable emotions. He stands, paces the room, and then stops, looking at you with a mixture of fear and determination.
"Y/N, I... I don't know if I can be a good father," he admits, his voice barely above a whisper. "My past, everything I've done... What if I can't protect you and our child?"
You stand up, wrapping your arms around him. "Sephiroth, you're not alone. We'll do this together. I believe in you, and I know you can be a wonderful father."
He holds you tightly, as if drawing strength from your words. Over the next few days, he remains quiet and contemplative, often lost in thought. You give him space, knowing he needs time to process this life-changing news.
As the weeks pass, Sephiroth begins to adapt to the idea of becoming a father. His initial fear slowly gives way to a cautious excitement. One evening, as you lie on the couch, he gently places his hand on your growing bump, his eyes softening.
"Hello, little one," he murmurs, his voice filled with wonder. "I'm your father. I promise to protect you and your mother with everything I have."
It's a tender moment that makes your heart swell with love. From that day on, Sephiroth becomes increasingly involved in your pregnancy. He reads books about parenting, learns about prenatal care, and even attends doctor appointments with you. His overprotective nature becomes evident as he insists on carrying heavy objects for you and constantly checks on your well-being.
One night, as you both prepare for bed, Sephiroth kneels beside you, resting his head on your belly. He speaks softly to the baby, telling stories about his day, his hopes, and dreams for the future. You can't help but smile at the sight of the usually stoic warrior so tender and loving.
"Do you think our child will have your eyes or mine?" you ask playfully.
He looks up at you, a rare smile gracing his lips. "I hope they have your kindness, Y/N. And maybe a bit of my strength."
As your pregnancy progresses, Sephiroth's protectiveness only grows. He becomes almost paranoid about your safety, going to great lengths to ensure you're comfortable and secure. One afternoon, as you're both out for a walk, a sudden gust of wind catches you off guard. Sephiroth immediately shields you, his reflexes lightning-fast.
