Namjoon was sitting with his feet propped up before remembering his check from the cafe was supposed to come in the mail. He slid on his rain boots and hobbled up to the mailbox pulling the out his mail going back inside.

He stepped over the sleeping pups on the floor mattress and settled himself in a corner going through it. He got a paycheck and some junk mail. Bills. And a letter unmarked.

He opened it and pulled out a handwritten letter.

Dear Namjoon,

I hear that you are pregnant. I can't help, but wondering if they are in fact mine. Regardless I have attached some money inside this envelope for appointments. I will not pay for an abortion. My checks will start coming weekly when you contact my assistant @ xxxxx@gmail.com

Namjoon choked a sob and tossed the envelope away after taking the money. He slid it into his drawer along with the letter. He was not asking for money so he wouldn't contact the assistant.

He wiped his eyes laying down on the mattress pulling the pups closer to him to snuggle.

He giggled how Jin squirmed away and Baekhyun cuddled close. He fell asleep with his children that he had done everything for.

The next day he woke up before them and decided to take a bath. He wasn't showing yet, but you could feel that his tummy was harder around the uterus.

"I can't wait for baths when I'm all big," he said to himself. He honestly loved when he had the twins and would just sit in the bath with bubbles relaxing.

It was like a spa back then, he could barely afford the electric bill back then. He leaned his head back against the tub, cold at first, but warmed up.

"Daddy?" Baekie asked stepping into the bathroom.

"Hey baby," Namjoon hummed opening his eyes and smiling.

"Want in," he pointed to the tub and Namjoon chuckled.

"Okay," he said. Baek took off his clothes and got in. Joon sat up allowing more space while the pup tried to sit on him.

"Woah woah woah slow down," Joon caught him before he fell on his tummy. "You have to be careful with daddy's belly, sweetheart. Your brother or sister is in there," he explained.

Baek narrowed his eyes and looked skeptical, but took a bath with Namjoon regardless.

Week Ten

Namjoon had gotten a day off work for the appointment, and left the pups with Mrs. Han, the neighbor. He had taken the bus to his appointment with a smile on his face. He stepped through the doors and the same lady at the front desk greeted him.

"Kim Namjoon," he told her and she nodded.

A few minutes later Nurse Kim got him and lead him to a different room taking normal check up measures.

"You're doing great Namjoon. Your Doctor will be here shortly," she left.

He sat on the bed crossing his legs and waited patiently for the doctor that took ages to show up.

"Hello, Kim Namjoon. I'll be your doctor from here on out. Call me Mark," he smiled sweetly at Namjoon.

"Hello," they shook hands.

"So ten weeks. And you get your first ultrasound," he grinned "big day," it made Joon happy that nobody commented on his unmarked neck.

"Yes, I'm excited," he said laying down and pulling his shirt up while Mark moved the machine over. He put the clear jelly on his tummy and spread it around. Namjoon giggled at the chill of it.

"So have you been taking vitamins?" he asked starting up the machine.

"Yes," he replied.

"Good,"

The dark screen turned to life Mark smiled pleasantly moving the camera around. Namjoon gasped seeing his baby.

"Woah, whoever knocked you up has some strong swimmers," Mark chuckled "man, that pup is already big," he said touching different spots on the screen.

"Cute," he said after some time. Namjoon nodded patting his tummy. "I have twins at home," he told the doctor who smiled at him.

"Want to hear the heartbeat?" he asked turning on the sound and you could hear the baby beats and then his own," it brought tears to his eyes.

"Thank you," he said wiping at his eyes.

"Do you want a picture?"

"Yes, can I actually have two copies?" he asked. Mark wiped the jell off and nodded.

The Nurse came back with both images and lead him to the exit.

He stepped outside and smiled touching his tummy lovingly. Three little pups. He's going to have three pups when this little one comes to say hi.

He picked up his phone calling Hoseok "hey Namjoonie," he answered.

"One, pretty big pup,"

Then Seok screamed probably doing a happy dance. "Yay!"

"I got two copies of their pictures. Can you give one to Jungkook?" he asked nervously waiting for the bus.

"Of course. Meet you at your house?"

"Thanks, Hobi,"

A few days later he was enjoying the chilly weather on the front porch. It hadn't snowed in a while and he missed it. It seemed as if when the cold weather started to dissipate so did Jungkook.

"Daddy," Jin said "want to pway outside," he said walking out the front door.

"Its too muddy out because of the melting snow," Namjoon pointed out taking the pup inside.

"Go pick a movie while I make breakfast," he said.

"Namjoonie!" an excited voice called from outside.

"Its open!" he hollered back. Hoseok came in with bags of groceries.

"I brought you food so you wouldn't have to leave," he said proudly.

"Doofus I have to go to work tomorrow. I'm not even showing, but thanks," he said helping the beta put the food away.

"That's gonna be three pups, oh my god," Hoseok gasped looking at him like he was crazy.

"I know. Babymaker is going to be closed after this," he chuckled.

"Ey-Yi-Yi," Hoseok exclaimed making Namjoon roll his eyes.

"Well, uncle Seokie is here to help," he said doing a Superman post.
