Coco x Licara -- Birth

Quick A/N: Requested by happyflower-

Licara's POV

It's been about four months since the night we've been intimate, and I've been feeling sick ever since. Everytime I have eaten something or woke up, I've thrown up into the toilet. It worried me, to be honest, and it isn't easy to worry me unless it has something to do with my boyfriend Coco.

Speaking of, we have finally moved in with each other and everything has been great between us. Well, until a couple weeks ago, that is.

Coco and I had finally had our very first fight as a couple, and we haven't talked about it but we're still mad with one another for reasons unknown to the other. But I know that there is something else that the male is upset about, but we're too upset with each other for me to ask him about it, so I kept silent.

"Licara? Sweetheart, open up," Came a familiar voice, followed by a few soft knocks. I was in the bathroom, puking up my lunch I just had. It wasn't bad, it's just that I don't feel well. But, I didn't want to let him in. What if he yells at me again?

"C-Come on ..." I said, trailing off as I puked once more. Coco opened the door but didn't come into the bathroom, as he probably thought I was still upset. I puked a few more times before flushing and washing my hands, looking up at the man blocking the only way out.

It was like staring into something you can't get out of. Kinda like a black hole. His stare was filled with either worry or anger, to which I hope was the latter.

"Coco?" I whispered, gripping the hem of my pants as worry filled over me. He has never done this before, just staring. I mean, sure, I felt his eyes on me sometimes but that was when we were happy and didn't worry about a fight that happened weeks ago.

Soon, our lips were connected, which was something that surprised me. It didn't take me long to respond though, as I had missed his lips against mine. It's been so long since we've done this. It was like he didn't care I had just puked into the toilet.

And, for a brief moment, I wasn't upset with him.

****

I hated when the test came back positive. I took it multiple times, getting the very same answer as before. The two lines. The two, bloody lines.

I wasn't ready, and the fact that I didn't notice it made me even angrier. When I went to the doctor, he told me to expect twins and I had many things to do to take care of myself to which I didn't already know.

The only hard part about this whole situation was telling my boyfriend Coco about it, which was something I wasn't looking forward into doing any time during our relationship. I mean, of course I want children, but not this early into the relationship. This is a topic to which could end our relationship all together, no matter if we made up or not. It was telling your favorite baby cousin no for a cookie.

I sighed as I made my way home, running a hand through my hair. I then rubbed my now swollen stomach, to which got so swollen that I have now two months left. How Coco hasn't noticed I have no idea, but I guess it's because I keep wearing his clothing and hiding myself. That, and I've been moody as hell for the past few months.

I then bit my bottom lip as I knocked onto his study, to which he did his fortunes. It was a few moments and soft chatter before the bloke finally decided go answer the damn door.

I looked up at him with a small smile, which made him chuckle softly. He lets me in, the room smelling of cinnamon and charcoal, one of my all-time favorite smells. Why he was using charcoal or why he was using cinnamon made me curious, but I had something on my mind that I had to get off my chest before the doctor calls him and he finds out through them.

"Coco, I have something to tell you," I said, sitting down in one of his chairs. The male raised an eyebrow at me but said nothing, motioning me to go on. I then took a shakey and nervous breath before doing so.

"I've been meaning to tell you this for a while now, and please don't get mad, but--" I was then cut off my him saying something that surprised me.

"You're pregnant. I know. I know the sign and I see into the future, Licara. It was only a matter of time before you came to me and told me this yourself," he said softly, bending down and kissing my temple. I then blushed, watching as he lifted my shirt and kissed my stomach.

"So, you're not mad?" I squeaked, making him look up in slight shock. He then stood up and sat in the chair, pulling both him and the item closer towards me.

"Licara, I will never be angry with you! You couldn't help this! ... Well, we could, but we didn't. And you wanna know something? I'm actually glad that you're pregnant with my children because now I have more of you around," he said with a smile.

I was crying when he said this, as I now knew that he'd always stay by me, no matter what happens or what we say to each other, it'll be like it is now: loving and adventurous.

And I think I don't mind that.

"Push!"

Pain riddled through my body when I did as told, hating that it couldn't just go away. It was like a feeling that just wouldn't go away, like it was your best friend and it didn't want to leave you. Like it was there for you to go through everything with it. But at the same time, it was good because it means your one minute away from it being over.

Birth was like that 99% of the time, the other one person using a shot to ease the pain. And why I didn't choose it I have not a clue. Would it be to late to ask for it for the second child? Probably. But who cares? They're gonna come out of your coochie either way. Unless you're a guy, then don't worry about it.

The small cry of a child was what brought me from my dilemma, the world around me coming to a stop from its constant spinning it was doing a few moments ago. I watched as the doctor handed the child to another doctor after announcing that it was a girl to clean her off. This was the time I had wished that I only had to give birth to one child instead of two, but that doesn't mean I won't love it just as much.

Pain shot threw me once more, the process of the child before starting all over again, but this time announcing it as a boy. I was shocked to hear this, as they had said it was going to be two girls, but whatever. I still have my beloved two children.

The doctors had finally given me both children after a while of cleaning of them and putting them into their fitting colored blankets, which I had thought a bit cliché but whatever. They were here and they were out, now calm as they stared at Coco and I. It was a pretty sight to look at, to say the least. One looked like me and the other his father. That's when I thought of it.

"What shall we name them?" I asked Coco softly, bouncing them both gently before handing the boy to his father. Coco went stiff for a moment but took the child anyway, as if he was scared of him. I guess I would be too if I was strong like that and never had to deal with children this size.

"Hmm. This one looks like a Luke, and my baby girl looks like a Luna. What do you think?" He said, glancing down at our son in his arms. I giggled as I kissed her forehead, my smile ever the wider.

"Yeah, I like that," I whispered, biting my bottom lip to do so. Luna had fallen asleep, to which made me think that I had the greatest blessing in the world. At first I thought it was just going to be just Coco and I, but now that we have children, we have to change our outlook on certain in our lives. Like instead of two of us, it's bow gonna be the four of us. I then smiled up at Coco, who was cooing at the small child before him. Yeah, I liked the sound of that. Just the four of us.

Just us against the world.
