(Shouto POV.)

Holy hell... Momo passed out a few hours ago after we did it four times... It's been nearly three weeks since my birthday and we've done it every night since then.. Every. Single.. Night....

I woke up about five minutes ago and managed to get out of bed without disturbing her. She needs to have proper rest and I don't wanna risk waking her up and having her be all super horny again.. I'm too sore and I don't think I can take much more until later tonight...

It's nearly six in the morning right now and there isn't much for me to do yet other than get breakfast started. Usually Momo wakes up first and cooks everything, probably because she's just gotten used to taking care of me. My shoulder has been feeling a lot better though and my doctor thinks the inflammation is going down at a good enough pace that Recovery Girl might not even need to see me be the end of next week, which is what I'm hoping for.

But even though I'm more capable than I was before, Momo's still been doing most everything around the house, all I've been in charge of is shopping and being her stress relief... I feel sort of like a tool right now...

Deciding to do something nice for my pregnant wife, I'm making us breakfast this morning. I remember back in high school one of the first things I made for her was breakfast. Something simple and traditionally American. Pancakes, bacon, and eggs. But I've also gotta make myself some coffee and some of that tea that makes her feel better in the morning...

Making everything doesn't take too terribly long. I can hear her down the hall getting up now, which is perfect timing because I just finished cooking everything up. I take the plates of food over to the kotatsu and then go back to the kitchen to grab Momo her tea and to get my coffee.

As I turn back around she walks into the kitchen. "Morning," I say smiling at her and hand her the semi-hot tea.

She takes it and returns the smile. "Good morning," she replies before stepping closer and kisses me. "How long have you been awake?"

"Maybe forty five minutes," I reply then sip my coffee. "I couldn't stay asleep and I didn't want to wake you. Did you sleep okay?"

She nods and sips her tea. "Yeah. I slept just fine, other than getting up and using the bathroom about four times."

"That's good I suppose," I reply, rubbing my neck. "Anyway, I made us some breakfast. We should eat while it's still hot."

Her eyes brighten up at the mention of food. She's definitely been eating a lot more lately, which is saying a lot given that I'm used to her eating a lot because of her quirk. Now she's eating for three... I actually went ahead and quadrupled the recipe for the pancake batter because I was afraid of her eating them all... A few days ago she made us both breakfast and then ate it all and I had to make my own...

I take her hand in mine and lead us to the table. Her stomach has definitely gotten bigger and I know sitting on the floor has become a little bit of a pain for her, even if she won't admit it. She keeps ahold of my hand as she slowly sits down and then I walk around and take my seat on the opposite side, tucking my legs under the blanket and feeling the heater.

"This looks really good Shouto," she says as she begins to fill the empty plate before her with the food on the other plates. "It's been a while since we had any of this."

"I know. I wanted to make something different and I know how much you enjoy this stuff every now and then," I reply as I get my own food.. Before it's all gone...

"Have you been sleeping well?" I ask, sparking up our usual morning conversation.

"For the most part. Usually I've been having to wake up two to three times a night to use the bathroom, and my back hurts if I lay on it for too long, but other than that I've been sleeping just fine," she replies happily. "How about you? Are your nightmares still gone?"

I nod with my mouth full of food. I chase it down with some coffee so I can answer. "Yeah, I haven't had any since he gave me the new medication. He told me that if I go a full month without them then I should switch to one pill every two days," I reply.

"That's good."

"Yeah. Plus my shoulder is healing a lot better than expected so I'm hoping I can get back-"

I stop talking as I watch Momo cup her hand over her mouth and rush to her feet and down the hall. Fuck.. The bathroom door slams shut and I hear her throw up.

"Damn.. I wonder if I made the tea wrong..."

I get up and head to the bathroom and knock on the door as I hear the toilet flush. "Momo. Are you okay? If your nauseous I can rub that pressure point on your foot."

She throws up again.

I shut my eyes and try to ignore the sound. Hearing people vomit is always horrid.

"D'you want me to get you anything? Like a glass of water?"

"What the hell did you put in those eggs?" she asks without answering my questions.

"A little milk. They're just scrambled eggs. Is that what made you puke?"

She throws up again.

I rub my neck as I wait for her to finish, unsure of what I should do or say.. I don't think anything right now would be the right thing..

The toilet flushes and I hear her sigh. "Are you done?" I ask, hoping she'll come out.

"For now."

"I can make you something else if you want. Is there anything different you'd like-"

"Can you run to the store and pick me up some chocolate bars?"

"For breakfast? That isn't exactly-"

The door flies open and I'm now face to face with Momo. Her hair is a mess and she looks miserable as she leans against the doorframe with one arm. "Until you're carrying two growing people inside of your uterus, you don't get to tell me what I can and can't eat when I want to eat," she grumbles while glaring at me.

"Well it's just-"

"Just what!? You asked what I wanted so I told you. If you won't get it for me then I will!"

"No wait!" I grab her arm as she tries to push her way past me. "I'll get them. You just sit down and drink some more tea," I calmly say, not wanting her to get even more upset. "Is there anything else you want while I'm out?"

She runs her hand through her hair, brushing it all to one side as she thinks. "Grab me some wagashi and mochi."

"Any specific kind..? That's pretty vague."

"You know the kinds I like. Just grab what's available," she tells me with a slight attitude.

"Okay. Okay.. I'll get going then. Try to relax while I'm gone," I say as I head for the bedroom to change out of my pajama pants.

I quickly throw on some black jeans and pull on a t-shirt and head to the door. Passing by Momo in the living room I notice that she put the plate of eggs on the counter so she's not even in the same room with them. Guess eggs are something we'll be refraining from eating for a while..

"I'll be back soon," I say as I head to the door, throwing my jacket on and sliding into my boots. "I love you!" I call back to her.

"Love you too. Hurry up please," she replies, sounding rather annoyed still.

I leave the house. The second I shut the door I let out a sigh. "Fucking hell... She's getting too moody now.." I mumble to myself, praying that she somehow didn't hear me.

"Chocolate, mochi, and wagashi for breakfast..." I mutter as I head down the snowy sidewalk. "Sure are fattening these kids up..."

I walk as fast as I'm willing to go. I don't want to keep her waiting, but I'm not entirely eager to get back home to get bitched at. I understand that it's her hormones and all the excess estrogen that's making her act this way, and that as her husband and father of her children I have no right to complain about any of it... Out loud at least..

She's gotten like this over the past week. It almost seemed like it happened over night. One day she was fine, same Momo that I've known for years and fell in love with, and then, she just started getting overworked about things and mad at me for the littlest mistakes... It's a lot to put up with at times, but she is still Momo, my wife, and I'll do anything for her.

After a little while I make it to the market near our house. Not the same one I went to where the reporter ambushed me, but a different one a little further away... Like I said... I'm really in no rush to get back home just yet..

"Fuck.. I forgot my hat.." I pull my hood up over my head to hide my hair the best I can.

I enter the store and grab a shopping basket and head for the dessert section. "She was vague with what she wanted... I know what she normally doesn't like, but, right now she's all weird and pregnant..." I mumble as I scan over everything there is. "Even if I grab something she usually loves... It might make her nauseous again...."

I sigh as I grab a few dozen of the things I know she usually likes. Hopefully she'll be able to eat it all, because I'm not much of a sweets guy and I don't want this to go to waste...

"Now... She also wants chocolate..."

It's not down this aisle. I gotta find it... But she didn't tell me what kind she wanted of that either...

"Dammit..."

I pull my phone out and open my message box, hesitating before clicking on Momo's name. She might still be upset.. I'll just grab some of everything.... I go to put my phone back in my pocket but it starts to ring.

(Momo POV.)

"I shouldn't have went off on Shouto like that... So far these mood swings are my least favorite part about this whole thing..."

The house feels so empty without him here with me. I'm not used to being alone anymore. He's always with me.. I guess it's something I need to get used to since he'll be back doing Hero work soon.

Letting out a sigh I lean back against the couch more and shut my eyes, setting my hand on my stomach and being alone with my thoughts.

Before I rushed to the bathroom it sounded like he said his shoulder is healing better than expected, so he'll probably be wanting to get back to work sooner than later. Last time he let me look at it, it did seem less irritated and I do want him to get better. He's been in so much pain for so long.

And my stupid elevated emotions probably aren't helping anything.. I've never been overly emotional for no reason, and I can't help it right now.. And.. I know it's only going to get worse the farther along I get..

"Momo. I'm back."

I open my eyes as I hear Shouto enter the house. The door shuts and I hear the rustle of grocery bags as he walks down the hall to me. He sits down on the table in front of me and then hands me the four bags...

"Why'd you buy so much stuff?" I question, sitting up and looking through what he got.

"I just got a variety of things I figured you liked..."

I look up at him and he's staring at the bags in my hands. I set the bags down beside me and lean forward, setting my hands over his and holding them. "Thank you Shouto," I warmly say. "I really appreciate you going out to get this for me."

"I'm glad," he replies, cracking a small smile. "It is my job to try and make your life easier during this time. And I'm sorry for making you throw up this morning..."

"It's okay, but I'm not really up to eating eggs anymore," I reply, trying to suppress the memory. "And, I'll try to not snap at you again.."

"It's okay. It's not your fault.."

"Okay.."

"Oh hey," he says, taking my hands in his now, "while I was out I got a call about the house. We got it. We can pick up the keys anytime."

"We got it?"

"Yeah." He bring my hand to his lips and kisses it. "I was thinking that since we don't have any plans today we could get ready and get the keys then make a plan on when to start moving in."

"That sounds good. I'll go get dressed then," I say as I lean forward and hug him.

He hugs me back, exhaling deeply. "I'll go call the driver then while you get ready. And I need to eat a little more before we head out."

We part and I stand up, picking up one of the bags he brought me. "Take your time then. I know I sort of went off before we could really eat," I reply, heading for the bedroom to get some clothes. "I think I'll take a shower first and then we can get ready to go."

"Alright. I'll tell him to be here in about an hour then. Sound good?"

"Sounds perfect."

(Shouto POV.)

Getting this house is definitely a big step in the right direction. We got the keys and we just reached our new home. It's fairly big and is just outside Tokyo near Musutafu. With it's location we won't be directly in the city and we'll be closer to my family's house. Being closer to my dad isn't ideal, but being closer to my mom, brother, and sister outweighs that aspect.. Especially if my mom is going to be helping us out a lot..

I unlock the door and we step inside. The genkan entrance hall is amazing and well lit and open. We take our shoes off and step up into the rest of the house. The main room is enormous and the floors are all tatami. The house is a modern style with small aspects of traditional Japanese style added in. There's a stone fire place in the living room with a TV mounted in the wall, a marble island in the kitchen.. Very modern on the inside but outside in the yard is all traditional styled. There's even a dojo where we can train. It's actually really nice and I think it's going to be a good house to have.

Momo holds my hand as we walk through the main room, both of us looking all around and admiring everything. "I love this place," she quietly says as she leans on my arm. "I'm so happy we got it."

"Same," I say as I kiss her head. "We gotta figure out when to start moving in."

"I can't help too much. My doctor already told me not to lift anything over ten kilograms."

"Yeah I know. I told you before that I'd handle it all. I can give Midoriya and Iida a call and see if they can help. If not then there's always Bakugou and Kirishima.. We've gotten closer over the years and they'd probably help out."

"Sounds like a plan," she replies, kissing my cheek. "But right now you do need to focus on getting back into shape and getting back into the field too."

"Getting back into shape? What's that supposed to mean?"

She pinches my side and smirks up at me. "Laying around on the couch for nearly two months tends to make you lose muscle tone," she says with a slight laugh.

"I might have gained a few pounds but I can jump right back into it," I grumble a little. "With my injuries I couldn't exactly keep up on my workout schedule.."

"I know," she says, hugging me tightly. "I'm just messing with you."

I groan and roll my eyes. "Whatever. My only workout recently has been doing it with you. The past three weeks have whipped me back into shape a little," I laugh as I kiss her head again.

"And you've been doing a very good job with that particular workout," she slyly tells me.

"That's good," I grin with a laugh. "Let's go take a look at the second floor."

I release her and we walk to the next room and then down the hall to the stairs. We ascend to the second story and take a look at the rooms up here.

"So then, what did we decide about the twins again? Keeping them in the same room or separating them?" I ask as I slide one of the doors open.

"I think keeping them together is fine," Momo shrugs. "There are three other rooms up here excluding ours that we can always put one in if needed."

I look to the end of the hall at the largest room, which is obviously ours. "And, we're still keeping the bed?"

"I'd like to. I know you prefer the tatami but at least right now I need my mattress. We can talk about changing it up once I'm no longer pregnant," she tells me as we walk to our new room.

I look around the large bedroom and see how open it is. "Even with that huge bed in here we'll still have plenty of space," I state as I rub the back of my head, thinking about having to move everything soon.

"We still have some time to figure things out," Momo says as we exit the room. "This week we can work on packing our stuff and let the landlord know we'll be moving. Once we actually need help moving the heavy stuff we can ask some of our friends to come and help if you need it."

"If I need help," I mumble back.

I rub my shoulder, wincing slightly from the lingering stinging pain on contact. I haven't lifted anything too heavy with my arm and I haven't used my fire at all in weeks.. I know that I'll need someone's help when we move if it happens within the next week.

"Let's head back home and start packing some of the little things up. We don't have much right now and then once we move in we can start buying stuff for the twins and preparing for them."

A/N: So what Momo wanted him to get from the store, the wagashi and mochi are Japanese sweet treats and right now that's what she's craving ^^"

And we're reaching the point where he's gonna be back into his Hero work ( •̀ᄇ• ́)ﻭ✧
