After coming back into the room, Kenma sits back down in front of you. He looks up at your face and can see tears falling down your face. He doesn't even think you know that they are there. Cupping your face with his hands, Kenma wipes the tears away with his thumbs.

You keep looking down and he directs your face to make you look at him. As he looks at you, he says, "Please don't cry. I wasn't mad or anything, I just needed to breathe for a minute and run everything through my head."

"I-I know I'm just scared," you respond, your voice quavering. You felt a lot more confident about this situation when you were running everything through your head but now that you actually have told him, your emotions are just wild and full of uncertainty.

Impulsively, Kenma removes his hands from your face and wraps them around you. You lay your chin on his shoulder and he rocks both of your bodies sideways to calm you down a little more. More tears trickle their way out of your eyes, tears that have been held back for years.

Kenma picks at your hair as he says, "We'll get through this, okay?"

You nod your head. "Okay..."

"Do you want to keep it?" he asks you. Kenma could tell when he came back in the room that you were scared of more than just if he was mad or not. Being a parent can be a scary thing, even Kenma is scared of that.

You don't hesitate as you answer, "I do. I really do."

Kenma leans back from the hug and you look at each other. He looks you in the eyes, not losing eye contact and says in a confident tone, "I'll be there with you every step of the way then. I-I'm scared too, but we'll get through this together, okay?"

"Okay," you confirm before leaning forward and putting your head against his shoulder. "Can we stay like this for a bit?" you ask him. It's not that you don't want to move, but his comfort feels good right now.

"Sure. Just for a bit," he tells you, his voice as soft as a mother's would be when they sing you a lullaby.

It's almost an hour later when you both agree it's time to leave the comfort of the room. Kenma wipes your eyes once more and you laugh as you say, "You better not tell anyone you saw me cry."

He raises an eyebrow at you and says, "And if I do?"

"You might just have a pregnant lady attacking you," you say in a joking manner.

"Oh no. I guess I better be quiet and tell nobody that I saw tears come out of those things you call eyes," he says sarcastically. You glare at him for a moment before he finally looks away and says, "Don't worry I'm not going to tell anyone. Now let's go downstairs, I'm sure everyone is wondering where we are."

You both leave the room and head downstairs where everyone is lounging around. Kotaro catches sight of you first and runs over to the two of you. "So, how did things go?" he asks.

You and Kenma look at each other before you look back at him and say with a smile, "Things went good!"

Kotaro dramatically sighs with a hand on his chest. "Good, that means I don't have to murder my friend," he says, feeling relieved. You laugh at him before excusing yourself and going to the kitchen for food.

For the rest of the night, things move pretty smoothly. You realize neither of you mentioned anything about when we were going to tell the others about the baby, noting to mention it later.
