As soon as Kagami walked inside the apartment, he dropped the grocery bags on the floor in the hallway. He rushed right to the bathroom and took off his shirt. He stood in front of the mirror, looking at the twins. He knew that Aomine wanted to tell people about their family, but how could they ever say it so people believed? So that people wouldn't think Kagami was a freak?

Kagami had been lucky with how Aomine had accepted him so easily, but running into Kuroko today felt like a close call.

"I'm not ashamed..." he whispered to himself and blinked as a tear rolled onto his cheek. Saying the words out loud didn't even make himself believe it. He leaned back against the wall and slowly sank into a crouch. He rested his hands over his abdomen. "No matter what happens, no matter what anyone says, I love you both."

He squeezed his eyes shut, but it did nothing to stop the tears from flowing down his cheeks.

He wasn't sure how long he'd been sitting there before he heard the front door open. He stood up as quickly as he could and splashed his face with cool water.

"Taiga?" He heard Aomine's voice as he got closer to the bathroom.

Kagami took a deep breath and smiled. He went to the door and opened it, keeping the smile on his face for Aomine. "Done with classes already?"

"I came home before practice." Aomine rested his hands on Kagami's shoulders. "Are you okay?"

"Of course, why wouldn't I be?"

Aomine narrowed his eyes a little. "Well, with the grocery bags still in the hall..."

Kagami put a hand over Aomine's. "I'm fine, I promise."

"Your eyes, why are they puffy? Were you crying?" Aomine furrowed his brow, genuine concern on his face.

Kagami swallowed. Of course, he should tell Aomine. But tell him what? Make him worry and dislike him for nothing? "It was just a long day."

"Then tell me about your day." Aomine moved to wrap an arm around Kagami's shoulders and guided him out of the bathroom. He brought Kagami to the couch and sat him down. He disappeared back down the hall to the bathroom and returned with Kagami's shirt.

Kagami took the shirt from his lover's hands and slowly pulled it on. If he could take longer getting himself put together, he could avoid Aomine's questions. As soon as he pulled the shirt down so he could see, Aomine was staring right at him.

"What happened?"

Kagami shrugged. "I can't explain it. At least, not why I'm so..." he avoided Aomine's gaze as he said, "I ran into Kuroko today and I just dreaded him noticing that something was wrong with me."

"Wrong? Are you not feeling well? I'll call the doctor right now."

Aomine started to reach for his phone out of his pocket. Kagami rested his hand over Aomine's to stop him. "I don't mean that," he said and took a long breath. "I was there buying diapers and baby stuff. And if he noticed that I've put on weight... How was I going to explain that?"

"You're pregnant, all of that is normal." Aomine took hold of Kagami's hand.

Kagami started to tear up again and looked down at Aomine's hand. He shook his head. "It sounds normal and it is, until you look at me. I'm a 6'2" male, what part of this is normal?"

"Taiga..." Aomine held Kagami's hand tighter. "Are you saying that you don't want this with me?"

"That's just it, I want a family with you more than anything." He looked at Aomine, staring into his deep blue eyes. "I just wish we lived in a different kind of world."

Aomine let out a breath of relief. "Well, the people who are most involved in our lives know about it and that's enough for now. I told you that you aren't alone in this, so don't even think about anyone else, they don't matter."

Kagami nodded. He smiled a bit. "I was worried you'd think I was weak."

"Never." Aomine kissed him tenderly.
