Baby Baby

Chapter 2: Public Admirer

Pregnant life for Namjoon didn't seem so hard. A few weird cravings and fatigue but he wasn't yet plagued with nausea -he hopes it stays that way-,swollen feet and insane mood swings. His belly wasn't even close to showing signs but he'd already put on the tiniest bit of pudge because it's never too early to start eating for two.

He was only in his 4th week but he'd let himself be consumed into the surprisingly exciting process of preparing for the baby's arrival. The second bedroom of his apartment had been cleared out and repainted a pink-peach because he deemed it a very gender neutral color. His nights were already being spent scrolling through websites on parenting tips and online window shopping for items his baby would need. He has more shoes for the baby than he does himself.

His omega co-workers at the Law Firm he worked in were already trying to baby him out of work,fussing over every little thing and he had to admit it was as annoying as it was endearing. He should have expected such though seeing as he worked in an omega friendly firm that due to the lack of general discrimination against omegas and females alike made it have a large amount of omega and female workers who all prove daily that they were a force to be reckoned with in the world of Justice.

He bugged his doctor,Jin ever so often about every little thing. But it was the older man's fault for giving him his private number and having them hang out enough to be friends. So yes he's going to text his friend who just happens to be his doctor at 2am to make sure eating his weights worth in cheetos was appropriate so late at night.

Being pregnant is more or less a nice conscious addition to his life at this point and for now all he can do is bask in the knowledge that life was growing inside him,life he would be responsible for for the rest of his and as scary as it was he anticipated it greatly. He knew the tougher parts of pregnancy were not far but he anticipated that too. All his co-workers who have had children didn't shy from sharing their experiences and making him know although stressful,how being a mother was a beautiful experience. A bit conservative but Namjoon chose this and he knows he'll love being a mother to his child.

So Kim Namjoon loves being pregnant. Well he loves it until on one of his nice evening strolls through the park he frequents he walks past a young boy -an alpha- who appears to be sketching the scenery,innocent and inoffensive enough until his ridiculously heightened sense of smell causes him to take a lung full of some unidentifiable smell he guesses is cologne because it wasn't a natural scent of alpha and is filled with the sudden urge to empty the contents of his stomach because dear god that smells awful.

He can't even control the bile rising up his threat and he's rushing to the luckily near by public trash bin which just happened to next to the bench the Alpha with the offending scent is sat on. His pathetic breakfast of bland toast and lunch an omegan co-worker who had the tendency to play the role of overbearing mother had to practically force feed him now sat at the bottom of a public trash can,an ugly sight and Namjoon for some ridiculous reason is really sad about it. Well not just sad. His head is suddenly a weird cocktail of emotions. Guilt for having just vomited the lunch Youngsun had no doubt slaved away to specifically prepare to meet his current needs as an expecting omega. Sad because his poor growing baby who he has been doing a shitty job recently at feeding because everything tasted like garbage just lost another meal. And very fucking angry at whoever the fuck just caused this whole mess. And so he did what any overwhelmed person would do in this situation. Start bawling his eyes out. Right there,still using the trash can to help keep his balance while looking at the honestly gross visual of his own vomit coating some trash.

That god awful scent was suddenly closer. And he didn't think it possible because he was certain his stomach was absolutely empty but he was vomiting even more. The Alpha hovered awkwardly next to him,the smell of anxiety and almost panic coming off him in waves as he clearly didn't know how to help the omega despite his alpha instincts most likely screaming at his to help the hysterical omega who was alternating between vomiting and crying. It didn't help,but Namjoon was at least glad the smell for the Alpha's panic,it somewhat covered up the awful cologne and helped ease his nausea.
