Nico Hülkenberg: I'm pregnant

Requested by laylamiddelkoopp

With watering eyes you stared at the pregnancy test you held in your hands. It was positive, which meant you and Nico were going to be parents. You were happy and scared at the same time. You felt extremely hppy because you had always wanted to be a mom, but you were scared of how Nico would react.

You had never really spoken about wanting kids. He did tell you once that he wanted to have kids in the future, but when was the future? Was it not too soon to have kids? You knew he would be a great dad but you didn't know if he was ready for it. You also didn't plan on getting pregnant at all. It just happened. You were happy about it, though. One thing you were sure about, was that you were going to keep the baby, no matter what. You weren't sure how to start the conversation with Nico yet, though. But you also didn't want to keep it a secret that you were having his baby. You knew you could never keep your mouth shut anyway, so keeping it a secret was no option.

You hoped Nico didn't notice how long you had been absent. You had gone upstairs at least fourty minutes ago. You felt like you needed time to think about it, even when you knew you wouldn't get the time. Nico could Always feel it when something was wrong. After some more minutes, you decided to finally go back downstairs, where Nico was watching tv. He looked up at you and patted the spot next to him for you to sit down.

"Hey love," he said softly, "What took you so long?" He asked, a mildly concerned look taking over his features. You knew he was going to ask this. And yet, you still had no answer ready. So instead, you just shrugged it off.

"Oh, nothing special," you tried to say as casually as you could, which you probably failed at. You knew he wouldn't buy those excuses for long. You tried your hardest to concentrate on the movie he was watching, but you simply couldn't. You bit your lip and hoped Nico wouldn't notice.

"Okay, what's gotten into you?" he asked after another five minutes of trying your hardest to concentrate.

"Nothing," you said quickly. He only raised an eyebrow at you, he knew better than that.

"I've been watching you for the last ten minutes. You seem off. Something's bothering you."

You sighed and nodded your head slowly. "Yes, something is on my mind," you said.

"Well, your problems are my problems, so spit it out." He said, looking at you worriedly.

"Well, I... I just, um, I don't know, I..." you stuttered out. He only encouraged you to go on. "I am pregnant," you whispered at last. You weren't sure if he had heard, but he stayed silent after that, so you just assumed he did.

"I know," he said. You looked up at him, confused. "What? But... how?" He grabbed your hands.

"You suddenly wanted a sandwich with peanut butter and cheese. You never eat peanut butter. Also, you've been eating a lot more lately. And you just seem to be happier in general. I asked my friend about it, and he said his wife was just the same when she was pregnant," he said, shrugging his shoulders as if he were the expert. He certainly was smarter than you.

"I only just found out. That's what was taking me so long up there," you silently admitted.

"But wait. You're saying you knew all along while I only just found out? That's absurd," you said.

"I was just waiting for the moment you'd find out," he said with a chuckle.

"So, I mean, we never really talked about it, but... do you want... the baby?" You asked, suddenly sounding unsure.

Nico chuckled and took your face in between his hands. "I don't want anything more than to have a baby with the most beautiful woman on the world."
