Once he gave me the opportunity to draw Calo I knew what I wanted to do when I saw one of their earlier pictures of the cutie patootie in the cutest pajamas. I love pastel purple
Can we please have Haganezuka reacting to a pregnant partner?
OLD FRIENDS, NEW LOVERS? PART 12
Summary: Valentine's Day is coming, and you're trying to figure out what to get for your beloved fiancé, who isn't really taking part in planning your wedding. You come up with a gift, but fate grants you an even better one.
Warnings: There will be peeing into a cup, I WARNED YOU
PART 1 - PART 2 - PART 3 - PART 4 - PART 5 - PART 6 - PART 7 - PART 8 - PART 9 - PART 10 - PART 11 - PART 12
So, you and Haganezuka were engaged and thus, the two of you had been talking about your wedding a little here and there, but no real decisions had been made yet.
You couldn't decide if you wanted a traditional Japanese wedding or a Western-style wedding. Then there were your dress and his suit and the food, and you couldn't really come to an agreement on what you both wanted.
Which led you to the current time. Both of you were enjoying your Saturday in your humble apartment, huddled under the kotatsu. The only difference was that you were going through stuff with the computer before you, on the table, while your fiancé ate mandarin oranges and watched TV.
"Hotaru, can you help me with this?" You asked, and he turned to look at you, "What do you need?"
"I'm trying to figure out where we should hold our wedding venue and-!"
"If you're happy, then I'm happy…" Haganezuka grumbled, and you pouted as you poked his leg with yours under the kotatsu.
"They're your wedding also!" You cried out loud, "I need your help with planning and other things!"
"You can do whatever you want, and I'll make sure the wedding gets paid."
"Money isn't the issue, Hotaru." You sighed, "I'd like to know what you would like to have in our wedding?"
"I don't need anything specific." He said, and you rolled your eyes, "What about cake?"
"I'll eat what is served." He grunted as he finished eating his mandarin orange and reached for another one in a bowl in the middle of the table, but just as he was about to grab one, you acted quickly and pulled the bowl out of his reach.
"Oi?!"
"What do I need to do to get you to help me with this?" You asked, and he grumbled, "I already told you to pick what you like."
"Hotaru, I don't want to fight." You said as you looked at him, "I just want this to be our wedding and not mine."
"I trust you to make the right decisions." He replied, and you were getting frustrated with your fiancé…!
But you didn't want to fight. So you gave up. You sighed as you moved to close the computer pages you were scrolling through, when suddenly an ad popped up, and your eyes widened.
It was a Valentine's Day ad, promoting the importance of remembering your loved ones with nice gifts that the ad helpfully offered. You glanced at your lover from the corner of your eye, and his focus was back on the TV.
You pouted, feeling ignored and not liking it… But the ad was right, Valentine's Day was around the corner, next week more precisely, and this was your and Haganezuka's first one as an official couple.
While he certainly did not currently deserve many presents, you couldn't help but to still want to surprise him for Valentine's Day. So you scrolled around the internet, and as cliché as it was, you came up with a foolproof plan to enjoy the day with your beloved one.
"Okay, can you at least decide what we are eating today?" You asked, and he glanced at you from the corner of his eye, "What do you want?"
"Hotaru, I swear to God-!" You were about to scold him, but instead, you inhaled calmly, shut the laptop, and reached for your phone, "Fine, pizza it is then."
And you kept living like this, relatively normally, until Friday, when young students of yours started to share Valentine's chocolates with each other and even with teachers.
You were picking something to eat from the school canteen when your friends, Makio, Suma, and Hinatsuru, surrounded you with a huge heart-shaped box in their hands.
"Hi! Would you like to join us and enjoy this chocolate that our husband gave us?"
"Are you sure you want to share with me?" You chuckled, "Once I start eating chocolate, I won't stop until there is nothing left."
"We are certain!" They all smiled, and you couldn't help but laugh a little as you joined them on a vacant desk.
"How's wedding planning going?" Makio asked, and you sighed, "Well, Hotaru doesn't really have many opinions on them."
"None?" Hinatsuru asked as she picked a piece of chocolate and popped it into her mouth. You shook your head, "None! It's like I'm planning the whole thing alone on my own."
"Remember, if you need help, you can just ask us!" Makio grinned confidently, and Suma nodded, "I agree! Tengen dear was very good at planning our weddings!"
"I trust your word." You smiled a little, "So, what do you think?"
"About what?" Suma asked, and you grinned, "Wedding dress? Which style would look good on me?"
A brand new conversation was born from that simple question. Each friend of yours had different opinions on what you should wear, and you rested your chin against your hand as you observed them and tried to imagine yourself in the dresses they mentioned.
Would Haganezuka want to see you in something slimming? Something romantic? Something big and puffy? You chuckled as you tried to imagine the look on his face when you would step in front of him in the dress of your dreams… Which you yet didn't even know if one even existed.
"Is everything okay?" Suma suddenly asked, and you blinked as she snapped you out of your thoughts.
"Oh, yeah, I was just thinking."
"Yes, but you haven't eaten any chocolate?" Hinatsuru wondered out loud, and Makio nodded, "Yeah, you usually demolish these things!"
"Oh, uh…" You looked at the delicious chocolate before you… But you didn't feel like eating them.
"Ah, I'm just not feeling like eating them, I guess?"
"What?" The three women blinked, and Suma cried out, "But you love chocolate!?"
"I know, I know," You bowed your head, "Sorry, but I just don't want any now…"
"You're passing chocolate?" Makio was stunned, and Hinatsuru was eyeing you with her sharp eyes…
"You wouldn't happen to be pregnant?" She suddenly asked, and you blinked, stunned… And then you burst out laughing out loud.
"Me? Pregnant?" You held your stomach, which almost hurt due to you laughing so hard, "That's not possible!"
"Have you been using protection properly?"
"We-!" You were about to reply when you realized something crucial. You could not remember any occasion when you and your beloved Haganezuka had used protection.
You fucked like rabbits, and you didn't end up pregnant, so you kinda just assumed that it wasn't likely to happen?
But now, as you thought about it, the more sense some things made. Such as how your breasts had been a little sorer than usual, or how little appetite you had…
But the biggest one must have been your slight change in mood. When you thought about it, you were a little moodier than you usually were.
"Oh my God…!" You felt your heart fall into the bottom of your stomach as the chance of pregnancy came to your mind. Could you actually be pregnant?
Hinatsuru, Suma, and Makio shared glances with each other… And then got up so quickly that they knocked their chairs over, then grabbed you, and before you knew what was happening, they were dragging you out of the school grounds.
"G- Guys-!?" You stuttered as you struggled to keep up with them as they dragged you to the closest little convenience store near Kimetsu Academy.
The 4 of you got inside, and before the cashier could even greet you, you were taken to a certain section in the store that offered you a wide variety of pregnancy tests.
"Suma, basket!" Makio ordered, and the black-haired woman saluted her fellow wife as she grabbed a shopping basket and Hinatsuru filled it with at least 9 different branded tests.
Everything happened so quickly, you didn't even register at what point you paid for all those tests, or how you got back to the Academy, and even less how you ended up in the school infirmary.
"My, what brings you all here?" Lady Tamayo, the school nurse, asked as Makio locked the door behind you guys.
"We have to collect her pee!" Suma cried out as she pointed at you, and you blushed so hard your face actually hurt.
"Pardon?" Lady Tamayo looked confused, and she had every right to look that way.
"We have to check if she is pregnant," Hinatsuru explained the situation quickly, and the kind nurse nodded and agreed to help you guys.
"Guys, I can't-!" You whined from the toilet connected to the infirmary.
"Do you need to drink more water?" Suma asked, and you cried out loud, "You're not helping!"
"We have the whole day," Makio grinned, "One way or another, we are getting that pee of yours!"
"I hate you guys!"
"We are doing this because we love you!" Hinatsuru smiled, "So please pee in the cup! We need a good amount to use all these tests!"
"This is the worst!"
Half an hour passed, and finally, you had used all 9 tests you got… And they were all positive.
"Oh my God…!" You were in shock as you stared at the lines and plus signs.
"Congratulations," Lady Tamayo smiled, but you weren't exactly smiling.
"There…" You swallowed as you looked at your stomach and gently placed your hands over it, "There is Hotaru's baby inside me?"
"Are you…?" Suma frowned, "Are you not happy?"
"I'm…" You felt something drop, and you brought your hand up and wiped your cheek. You were crying… But they were tears of joy.
"I'm shocked…" You whispered and then smiled a little as you started crying, "But more than that… I'm happy…!"
"Congrats!" Hinatsuru, Suma, and Makio cheered, and Lady Tamayo smiled, "When are you going to tell Haganezuka?"
"I…" You blinked as you realized that you would have to somehow tell your soon-to-be husband that you were carrying his child inside you.
"I… I don't know…?" You were thinking hard, but one day it seemed to pop into your mind and really stood out from the rest. You looked at your friends, "Tomorrow?"
"On Valentine's Day?" Makio asked, and Suma cheered, "That would be so romantic!"
"It would indeed." Hinatsuru smiled, and you chuckled a little, "I was planning to lick chocolate sauce off his body, but I think he would love this more?"
"Truly, congratulations." Lady Tamayo nodded, and you nodded back before looking at your stomach again… And the longer you stared at it, the warmer your chest and heart inside it got.
It was torture to keep your pregnancy hidden from your beloved Haganezuka, but it was only one day. You could hold the secret for one day.
And so came the Saturday, the Valentine's Day. You were awake early in the morning, not being able to sleep properly due to your nerves. You glanced at your sleeping fiancé next to you… And he was sleeping peacefully, yet he still looked a little mad.
You giggled a little and leaned down to kiss him, kissing all over his face except his lips. Your kisses trailed lower and lower, and suddenly you felt his neck twitch beneath your lips.
"Oi."
You looked up and saw that your lover had woken up.
"Good morning, Hotaru," You smiled as you kissed the corner of his mouth, "Happy Valentine's Day."
"Happy Valentine's Day to you, my wife…" He grumbled as he reached up, his calloused but gentle hands tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear.
"You look radiant." He said as he looked at you like you were his whole world, and you chuckled, "Thank you, my love. I-!"
"Shh…!" He hushed you gently as he leaned up and kissed you. You hummed as you happily returned his kiss… And once the kiss was over, Haganezuka threw his blanket aside and got up, stretching his muscular arms high in the air, and you admired how every single muscle of his seemed to move with him.
"I have a surprise for you." You hummed playfully as you put your blanket aside and threw your legs over the bed's edge, sitting up.
"Oh?" Your fiancé turned to look at you, "Could it be related to all that chocolate sauce in the fridge?"
"It was," You giggled, "But I found something even better."
"Alright," He nodded, "You got me interested, woman."
"Good," You smiled as you motioned him to come to you with your finger, "Come here and I'll give it to you~!"
"You naughty vixen…!" Haganezuka muttered quietly, and it took everything in you not burst into giggles.
So he walked around the bed and stopped in front of you. You pointed at the floor, and he got the hint to get on his knees. Based on the look in his eyes, he was expecting to get some special breakfast, but as he moved to pull your panties down, you quickly grabbed his hands and pressed them against your stomach.
"What-?" Haganezuka blinked in confusion and then looked up at you, and you gave him a loving smile, "Your present is not really ready yet… Just wait for 8 more months?"
"What are you-?" Haganezuka's gorgeous eyes widened as he realized what you meant. He looked at you, stunned, and then at your stomach, and then at you again.
"You're…?" He whispered, and you nodded, "I am."
A couple of seconds passed as the reality sank into your fiancé's thick head, and once he understood that he was going to become a father, he jumped up on his feet, and before you could react, he hugged you so lovingly and just held you in his arms.
"Hotaru-?"
"I love you," He whispered to your ear and gently squeezed you, "And starting today, I will spend the rest of my life repaying your love…"
"I love you too, Hotaru…" You smiled as you wrapped your arms around him and returned his hug, "And I always will, no matter what."
The two of you hugged each other in what felt like a few seconds, but was actually many minutes. Finally, you pulled apart, and Haganezuka looked at you seriously.
"I want a traditional wedding," He suddenly said, surprising and confusing you.
"Huh?"
"I want a traditional ceremony, and I want to see you in a gorgeous white kimono." He kept talking, "I want our venue to reflect us, and I want to serve Mitarashi dangos at our wedding."
So he did have some wishes about what he wanted to happen in your wedding? He just wanted you to have what you wanted and ignored his own wants and needs?
You smiled as you fondly shook your head and leaned forward to quickly kiss him.
"Those sound good, Hotaru," You giggled, "A kimono will definitely hide my stomach!"
"Shit," He cursed, "Maybe I want something fitting then instead…?"
"Hotaru!"
"I want people to see you and our child, that I put inside you!"
"No way! I'd look fat!"
"You'd look gorgeous!"
"Forget it, I already decided I want that kimono you promised to me!"
"Stubborn woman…!" Haganezuka growled, and you giggled, and you couldn't help but kiss him again.
"I love you so much, Hotaru." You confessed once again, and he growled as he hugged you again, "And I love you… Both of you…"
On today’s episode of feeding my delusions, we have….
*drumroll*
Combating Kirara’s extreme neatness, at first he thought it was a cute quirk of hers until he noticed it sometimes ate her up. So to help her to lose the grip with control he gives her (expected and appreciated) hugs, she may not look like it but this is good.
This was just an excuse to draw more expressive faces, and to turn it around with the teasing, he can also be annoying.
Been caught up on the ol commission queue I finally cleared so now enjoy this finished com for my man I know your tired of me tagging you smelly :] I love you @succulentqween
OC Art!! Hope yall are interested in this, as I’m planning to shift from KNY, I’ll still draw Mr. Baby Girl, Haganezuka. But I am no longer interested in KNY and I really want to develop my world.
I'm obsessed with this idea that the way into Haganezuka's heart is by quietly working alongside him. You know how they say that the best way to gain an animal's trust is to sleep close to them? Same principle, but applied a bit differently to this unhinged swordsmith.
Imagine that you're betrothed to the man (bonus points if you're also socially awkward as heck) and you have absolutely no idea how to interact with him. So, you decide to just start working quietly beside him. I can't imagine that Haganezuka would let you insert yourself into any part of his work, but perhaps you have a hobby of your own that you can chip away at alongside him. For weeks it's like this, just the two of you quietly working away, getting used to each other's company.
Eventually, it becomes second nature being in each other's space. Passing each other tools without needing to ask, complimenting the other's work with a glance or an encouraging word, handing the other water or a quick snack when either of you starts to lose steam. It gets to a point where Haganezuka becomes so used to your presence that on the days when you're absent, he finds he can't concentrate. It's infuriating. His mind wanders, thinking about what you're up to, and his work suffers as a result.
It's quite the amusing sight for the other swordsmiths, seeing Haganezuka storm through the village like a wild boar as he tries to track you down. When he finally finds you, he looms over you, but doesn't say a word. Instead, the belligerent swordsmith will wait for you to finish what you're doing, but his impatience and need for you shows in the subtle movement of his calloused hand. He reaches for your sleeve and gives it a gentle tug, as if to say, "Please, come home."
Now excuse me while I add this to my wips at the speed of light
