Piccolo stood silently on the Lookout, his keen senses attuned to every movement and sound. Lately, he had noticed subtle changes in Y/N's behavior—slight shifts in energy, small adjustments in her routine—that suggested something was different. Something significant.
He hadn't said anything to Y/N yet. It wasn't that he doubted her abilities or resilience, but he couldn't shake the protective instinct that had intensified in recent weeks.
Piccolo, stood at the edge, his usually stoic expression softened as he watched the others mingle. He couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation tinged with nervousness.
Y/N, his beloved, was late. Uncharacteristically so. Piccolo had noticed the subtle changes in her behavior over the past month—small adjustments in her routine, a slight fatigue in her movements that she tried to hide. He had known something was different but didn't dare voice his thoughts until he was certain.
Just a month ago, Piccolo had sensed a shift in Y/N's ki during their sparring sessions. There was an unfamiliar warmth, a gentle pulse that resonated differently than before. He had begun observing her more closely, quietly assessing her well-being, and subtly adjusting his protective instincts to accommodate this newfound awareness.
With a sigh, Piccolo leaped from the Lookout, soaring down towards her ki, landing silently beside Y/N. She turned at the sound, startled briefly before a smile spread across her face. "Piccolo," she greeted warmly, though she couldn't shake the unease in her own mind.
"You're late," Piccolo stated, his tone neutral but with a hint of concern that Y/N could always pick up on.
Y/N rubbed the back of her neck sheepishly. "Sorry, got a little lost in my thoughts," she admitted, not wanting to worry him unnecessarily. She glanced up at him, noting the lines of tension that seemed more pronounced lately. "Everything okay?"
Piccolo hesitated, then nodded. "Everything's fine," he replied, though his eyes searched hers for any hint of her own concerns.
Y/N nodded slowly, not entirely convinced. She took a deep breath, steeling herself to share the news that had been occupying her thoughts since that morning.
"Piccolo," Y/N began, her voice tinged with a mixture of curiosity and concern. "There's something I need to tell you."
Piccolo turned fully to face her, his expression calm yet attentive. "Go ahead," he encouraged softly, his deep voice resonating across the tranquil atmosphere.
Y/N took a deep breath, her hands clasped in front of her nervously. "I... I just found out that I'm pregnant," she confessed, her eyes searching his for a reaction.
To her surprise, Piccolo's gaze softened, a knowing look in his eyes. "I know," he replied quietly.
Y/N blinked in confusion. "You... you know?" she repeated, surprised by his calm demeanor.
Piccolo nodded, his gaze unwavering. "I've known for about a month now," he admitted, his tone gentle. "I noticed the changes in your energy, the way you moved... I've been more aware."
Y/N's eyes widened in realization. "That's why you've been so... protective," she murmured, her heart warming at the thought of Piccolo's silent concern for her well-being.
"There's two of them in there."
Y/N's eyes widened in astonishment, her hands instinctively covering her abdomen. "Twins?" she breathed, overwhelmed by the realization. She looked up at Piccolo, her heart swelling with love and gratitude. "I... I can't believe it."
