Hello Sweet Baby
"Shownu~" Kihyun coos, brushing his husband's hair out of his face as the said man snorts awake.
Shownu hums, "It's already six?"
"Mhmm, and we have an appointment today when you get off work," Kihyun says softly.
"Mmm, baby appointment," Shownu hums again, placing his large hand on Kihyun's eleven week bump, "If we have a boy, what will his name be?"
Kihyun shrugs, "I don't know, I thought of something but I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. What about a little girl? Wouldn't it be cute if we had a little girl with your lips and eyes?"
"I'd prefer her to look like you, you're the face of beauty," Shownu winks and Kihyun blushes.
"We're both good looking and will make cute ass babies," Kihyun giggles, "I don't care who they look like, as long as you're the daddy."
Shownu laughs, looking at his bedside clock and groaning, "Wanna shower with me?"
"We need to hurry, I'm going to take some photos of the sunrise for my website."
Their shower didn't go as quick as Kihyun had hoped. Instead, Shownu got a little handsy and wouldn't stop touching Kihyun. Finally the smaller man gave in and needless to say the shower was extra steamy. As they were drying off, Kihyun turns to the side to check out his bump in the mirror, smiling, "Your giant kid is making me look huge."
"You don't look huge," Shownu says sternly, kissing his husband's cheek, "You look like a healthy pregnant person."
Kihyun rolls his eyes, "Mhmm, no one's going to assume I'm pregnant unless I tell them they'll just think I'm chubby."
Shownu shrugs, "And if they call you chubby call me over and I'll pound someone's teeth in."
Kihyun giggles, "I love you."
Shownu tilts Kihyun's head up, making him face the taller and kisses his lips. When he pulls away he smiles slightly, "I love you too. And it's way past sunrise right now."
Kihyun sighs, "I guess I'll have to take photos of the sunset."
"I'm sure whatever photos you take they're going to be stunning," Shownu chuckles, "How does oatmeal sound for breakfast?"
"With blueberries?"
"Baby, you can eat all the blueberries in the world," Shownu chuckles, kissing his husband's cheek before heading to the kitchen in his work pants and shirtless to make their breakfast. About the only thing he can cook without burning is oatmeal in the microwave.
While he made breakfast, Kihyun fixes his hair and brushes his teeth for the day, all while thinking about their little baby. He's hoping it's a little boy, he's always wanted a little boy and Shownu has always wanted one too. He has yet to find a name for the said baby, he may just wait until it's born to see what he or she looks like.
When he's done getting ready for the day, he makes his way to the kitchen to eat his oatmeal that is practically making his mouth water. Shownu always added extra cinnamon in their oatmeals, he preferred the apple cinnamon instead of blueberry. He took the coffee cup full of oatmeal and sniffs it before bringing it up to his lips. He hums after that first hot gulp makes its way down his throat, "Delicious baby, thank you."
They sit in the living room and eat in silence, Kihyun every so often trying to feed Shownu a blueberry but the man wouldn't eat it. Eventually he ate one after Kihyun shoves the spoon in his mouth. He narrows his eyes at the pregnant man who just giggles and continues to eat his oatmeal innocently.
Eventually, Shownu had to leave for work and Kihyun was left home alone. He purses his lips, trying to think of what he can do. He caught all the laundry up yesterday, and the dishes other than today's from breakfast, and he's unpacked everything already. He hums, cupping his belly and sitting on the couch in silence.
He suddenly got an idea. Mark was probably working in his shop today, maybe he can go over there and see if he can help with anything. He gets off the couch and places his tennis shoes on, grabbing his keys and heading over across the street. Just as expected, Mark was in his shop gettin ready to open. Kihyun knocks on the door, scaring Mark who was in the middle of setting plastic bowls down on the counter.
He smiles, removing his gloves and opening the door, "Hey Kihyun, what's up?"
"Well, I have nothing to do today so I figured I'd come over and see if you need any help?"
Mark purses his lips, looking back behind him as he hums, "I usually don't let people help... but I might need it today. Yeah, come on in!"
"I can't dye or cut hair, but I can manage the phone and grab you supplies if you need it," Kihyun giggles, coming in the shop and sitting at the little desk Mark had in the far corner of the garage.
"Yeah I appreciate it," Mark sighs, brushing his hair out of his face and grabbing new gloves, "I have appointments after appointments today and I'm pretty backed up. Probably until way past closing."
"That's awful, well I'll stay and help until four. We have an appointment to see the baby today," Kihyun smiles widely.
"Aww cute! Just as a check up or what?" Mark asks over his shoulder as he starts mixing dye.
"Yeah, just our eleventh week check up," Kihyun smiles, "Oh, I should probably wear a mask."
"Yes," Mark snaps his fingers, pointing to the cabinet behind Kihyun, "Top shelf there is a package of masks that I had when I was pregnant and when any other people come in pregnant they use."
"You had this shop when you were pregnant?" Kihyun asks, reaching on his tippy toes until he catches one and puts it on immediately.
"Yup! I had just opened my business and about nine months after I had opened it I found out I was pregnant with Mayleen."
"Mayleen, is that Chinese?"
"Yup! Me and Jackson are Chinese, we just moved here when we were in school and just ended up staying here. Jackson's family lived in China until they found out I was having Mayleen and decided to move down here too. My parents, however, live in America and we go see them every summer from the first of June to the first week of July."
"Wow," Kihyun said quietly, "Who runs the shop while you're gone?"
"I call my friend Lisa, and she usually runs it," Mark giggles, "I did the same thing when I had Mayleen. She's like my back up I guess in case I get sick or something happens."
"Oh okay, so where does she normally work?"
"She's finishing up her schooling right now, she also works at an animal shelter until she can get into a shop or have one of her own. I'm honestly considering hiring her, its getting a bit hectic here. Plus, Jackson's wanting to have another kid and I'll have to worry about that-"
"Don't worry about that," Kihyun says softly, "Just take it one day at a time and when the opportunity comes you can either take it or not."
Mark smiles and gets back to work. The whole day they made small talk whether it was with clients or with each other. About the time Kihyun had to leave for their baby appointment, Mark stops him, "Would you care to come over tomorrow as well and help? I really appreciated it today."
"Sure! All I was going to do tomorrow was find some sights for family photos I'm promoting soon. I can do that this weekend."
Mark claps his hands, "Great! Thank you so much!" He hugs Kihyun, "And I may invite Seokjin, he's off every Wednesday and I don't want him to think we're leaving him out of things."
"Alright," Kihyun smiles, "I'll see you tomorrow!"
"Bye! Show me baby photos when you get back!"

"Alright, this will be cold Kihyun," the doctor said as he squirts the jelly on Kihyun's belly and then places the Doppler on top.
Kihyun and Shownu watch the screen as black and white fuzzies swirl and eventually form a picture of their baby. It was starting to look like an actual baby now, not a blob or mass. The doctor nods, "Looking healthy and strong! It's still too soon to tell the gender but from my guess of the heartbeat I'm going to say it's probably a boy. I could be wrong though!"
Kihyun smiles, looking up at Shownu who wouldn't take his curious eyes off of the screen. Kihyun giggles, eventually snapping Shownu out of it to where he looks down at him and smiles. The doctor snaps a few pictures before turning the machine off and handing paper towels to Kihyun to clean off his belly, "Now, do you both have any questions? Normally new moms and dads have tons to ask around this time."
"I've been cramping a lot in my hips and my back, is that normal?" Kihyun asks as he cleans off his belly.
"That's your body growing and adjusting to the pregnancy, you may cramp through the whole thing considering you're tiny and daddy here isn't really small," the doctor chuckles, "Anything else?"
"When will morning sickness end," Kihyun laughs.
"That is entirely up to baby, some people get morning sickness all throughout their pregnancy and some don't get it at all. I can prescribe you something to help with it but I can't guarantee it'll work."
Kihyun nods, "So everything looks okay?"
"Yep, your baby's growing perfectly and looks very healthy and strong. Now remember to keep active and to gain a bit more weight. You're actually a little bit under weight, but that doesn't mean to go home and pig out on pizza and doughnuts. Continue to eat healthy, and actually bump up your servings of vegetables and calcium to at least double. If you can at least gain five pounds by your next visit you'll be in the clear!"
"How much weight should he gain for the entire pregnancy?" Shownu asks, now interested in the health of his husband and baby.
"Since he was underweight in general before he got pregnant, I suggest somewhere between twenty-eight to forty pounds you need to gain. If you can gain at least twenty-five or twenty- seven pounds this pregnancy you'll be okay."
Kihyun nods, pointing to his writing pad, "I'll take that morning sickness pill please."
