The days were getting colder
and Kenma really hated it.

Thanks to the little bean growing under his heart, his body used
all his energy to keep the baby
safe and warm and often left
the boy shivering just from
the walk to school.

No matter how many layers he wore,
his hands were always cold.

Thankfully he had a human-size
heat pillow called Kuroo Tetsuro
to cuddle up to and his boyfriend
was also always kind enough to
just stuff their intertwined hands
in his pocket no matter where
they were going.

“Feeling better?”

Kuroo cooed at the blanket burrito
in his arms and pressed a soft kiss
on the younger's forehead when
Kenma looked up with a pout.

“No. My toes are still numb.”

The blonde tried to prove his words
by wriggling his feet awkwardly
but his fuzzy cat paw socks
were a bit distracting.

“Hm. I guess we should take
this on the next level then..
Double filled burrito!”

Kenma squealed in surprise when
his boyfriend opened his blanket
cocoon just to roll inside as well
before closing it again around them.

“Kuroo! Careful,
no squishing the baby..”

The blonde had immediately
moved his hands to his belly to
make sure the older male wouldn't
accidentally bump into it
with his body.

Now that he was close to
reaching halftime of his pregnancy,
their baby had surely grown a lot
and so had his baby bump.

It was pretty obvious now that he
was expecting but Kenma found
himself caring less and less about
the stares and whispers of other
people because just like his father
had told him once, he was
focusing on his baby.

Because a few days ago
something really cool happened.

“Kuroo.”

The ravenette immediately smiled
too when he noticed Kenma smiling
at him but looked at him surprised
when the blonde grabbed his hands
inside the blanket cocoon just to
place them under his seemingly
hundred layers of clothes on
his bare belly.

“Baby's up.”

Just that was already enough for
thousands of sparkles to form in
Kuroo's eyes as his smile grew
into a totally-in-love grin.

It didn't even take a minute for
their little child to respond to their
daddy's gentle touch, two tiny feet
kicking gently against the
ravenette's palm.

The kicks weren't very strong
nor uncomfortable for Kenma
but he was glad they were strong
enough for Kuroo to feel
them too now.

All those weeks Dr Sato had said
he should be able to start feeling
his baby move, their kid had been
too lazy and had only shifted from
time to time which hadn't really
been noticeable as fetal movement.

It wasn't that their baby had been
too small to feel it, they were still
on the bigger side and definitely
taking after their giant father.

Kuroo had already joked that this
was Nekoma's future middle
blocker in the making.

But apparently they were as
energy-efficient as their papa too.

“Baby's so active today.
The tiny feet are so cute.”

Kuroo cooed as he ran his hand
over his boyfriend's baby bump
in hope to keep their child
motivated to move a bit more
but Kenma only hummed
in agreement.

He had his eyes closed and a
soft smile resting on his face as
he focused on the feeling of his
baby moving around and
Kuroo's hands on his belly.

They were another big step
closer to becoming parents.

All of this felt so much more real
now that he could actually feel
his child being right there, alive
and so excited to get attention
from their dad.

“Believe me when I say the feet
don't feel so cute when they kick
your bladder during a math test.”

Kenma chuckled lightly before
he readjusted his head so he
could just press his face against
his boyfriend's chest.

He was still cold and tired and
in dire need of cuddles, even if
he'd never admit that.

“I can imagine.
But you said baby's still rather lazy,
right? So it should be fine.
I can't believe they're not even
bothered by all the loud noises
at practice.”

“I think baby finds it relaxing
to hear you yell at the other players.”

“Hey! I'm the captain, it's my duty
to make sure they're trying their best.
Also you're only playing volleyball
properly if you yell too,
you know that.”

“Sure sure.”

Kenma smiled softly against the
older's hoodie before he nuzzled
his face back against his chest,
his heart jumping when he felt
Kuroo remove one hand from
his baby bump to wrap his arm
around the younger's waist.

It was the ultimate snuggle pile
burrito and Kenma never
wanted to move again.

Their baby was slowly calming
down again, maybe worn out from
playing with their daddy or maybe
just getting sleepy too from Kuroo's
gentle touches just like their papa.

“Kitten?”

“Hm?”

“I'm so proud of you.”

“Hm..”

But Kuroo knew it even if he
couldn't see his boyfriend's
flushed cheeks and shy smile.

Kenma didn't have to say it,
Kuroo knew that hearing that
meant so much to the pudding head.
