Men Can't Get Pregnant

Food Cravings and Friends Finding Out: Rome and Pick

2 MONTHS PREGNANT

Pick never imagined being a Daddy. Maybe when he was older but not at twenty four. Rome was so sure about it and was slowly teaching Pick that it was okay to have some doubts but that they were going to be great parents. Pick took that to heart and started reading every pregnancy book Rome brought home.

"You going to be okay with me going to the store if I promise not to lift anything heavy." Rome asked. Pick had decided that from now until the baby is born that Rome wasn't allowed to lift heavy things since it said in a pregnancy book that carrying or lifting heavy objects could increase the risk of miscarriage.

"Fine but hurry back so we can cuddle up and finish this chapter together." Pick said. Rome smiled before kissing his husband. They had gotten married a week after they found out about the baby. It was also the day after they told Emma and Porsche that it was Rome's cousin who was pregnant and so he was just sending her a gift to say congratulations. Rome hated lying to Emma but he couldn't tell her till he passed the first trimester where it was safer for the baby.

Rome left the house feeling hungry for Thai donuts. He had been recently craving them which irked Pick because he thought he should be eating healthier. Rome would then tell Pick that he is growing a human being and should be able to eat whatever the hell he wants. Pick hadn't said a thing about it since angry Rome scared Pick.

Rome got into his car and drove to the store with his grocery list. When he arrived he quickly went in and headed straight for the Thai donuts. Once he had them he went on his way not knowing that once he got home things were going to hit the fan.

Pick sighed as he went and answered the door. He was in the middle of reading one of the pregnancy books when the doorbell rang. The door hadn't even opened all the way when Emma followed by an embarrassed Porsche barged into the apartment.

"What the hell!!" Pick yelled.

"WHERE THE HELL IS THAT LIAR!!" Emma yelled.

"Why are you calling my husband a liar?" Pick asked.

"Cause I ran into his cousin and congratulated her on her pregnancy only to have her tell me that she isn't pregnant!!" Emma said truly pissed off. Pick inwardly groaned.

"What's going on?" Rome asked standing in the doorway looking at his friends and his husband.

"You piece of shit, did you cheat on Pick and get a girl pregnant then lie to us about it." Rome looked at Pick totally freaking out inside.

"Let's just tell them cause they won't leave if we don't." Pick said. Rome teared up before stepping inside the apartment and closing the door.

"We did lie but for good reason." Rome said leaning against the door. "The reason for the lie is that we didn't want anyone to know that I'm almost three months pregnant."

"What?" Emma said while Porsche looked confused.

"I'm a hermaphrodite and that's the reason I couldn't go to Africa."

"Are you being serious right now?" Emma said looking like she was going to burst into tears.

"Yeah, we were going to tell you next week when the first trimester was over but I guess that isn't going to happen." Rome said. Emma burst into tears before going over to Rome and hugging him.

"I'm going to be an aunt." She said through her tears.

"Congratulations you too" Porsche said.

"Thanks" Pick said.

"Could I eat the rest of my donuts now?" Rome said making everyone laugh.
