oh no! sae's girlfriend has babyfever! ୨ৎ
dating sae itoshi during your baby fever phase was simultaneously the best and worst thing that had ever happened to him.
because at first, he thought it was cute, really cute.
the first time it happened was when the two of you were grocery shopping together. you had stopped mid-walk beside a woman holding a baby, your entire expression softening instantly.
“sae,” you whispered dramatically, grabbing his sleeve. “look at its cheeks.”
sae glanced over once. “…it’s a baby.”
“exactly.”
he blinked slowly while you continued staring at the child like your life depended on it.
that should’ve been his warning sign. because after that, it escalated fast.
suddenly every baby you saw became a conversation, every tiny pair of shoes in store windows made you emotional. and somehow — every discussion ended with you talking about your future children.
his future children.
“our daughter would be adorable,” you sighed one evening while laying across sae’s chest.
sae looked down from his book calmly. “daughter?”
“mhm.”
“what happened to the son you wanted yesterday?”
you frowned thoughtfully. “we can have both.”
he stared at you for a long moment. “…you planned this out already?”
“obviously.”
the scary part? you absolutely had.
for an entire month, sae listened to increasingly concerning statements leave your mouth casually.
“our kids would have your eyelashes.”
“i think our son would be attached to you more.”
“do you think our daughter would get your hair color?”
“sae, imagine tiny little jerseys.”
at first he responded normally, then eventually he just started sighing deeply every time you opened your mouth.
“you’re thinking about babies again,” he muttered one night from the kitchen.
you gasped dramatically. “how did you know?”
“because you just showed me six baby videos in a row.”
“…they were cute videos.”
“one of them was literally just a baby sneezing.”
“and it was adorable.”
sae rubbed tiredly at his face while you smiled proudly from the couch.
affectionately annoyed. that was the only way to describe him lately. because despite all the complaining, he listened every single time, even when he pretended not to.
which unfortunately encouraged you further.
“do you think our kids would like football?” you asked suddenly one afternoon.
sae barely looked up from his phone. “with our genetics? they won’t have a choice.”
you burst into laughter instantly.
god.
he hated how much he liked hearing you laugh about things like this.
the worst part came during practice.
because sae had made the mistake of leaving his phone unlocked beside one of his teammates while showering.
which meant his teammates unfortunately saw your messages.
one of his teammates stared at the screen blankly.
“…why is she sending you tiny baby clothes.”
sae froze.
across the room, one of his teammates leaned over curiously.
“wait,” he snorted. “is itoshi getting baby trapped?”
“shut up,” sae replied immediately.
another teammate grinned. “nah this is insane. ‘sae look how cute this stroller is.’”
sae walked over instantly, snatching his phone away with the coldest glare imaginable. except unfortunately, his ears were slightly pink. which made everything worse.
“oh my god,” somebody laughed. “he’s embarrassed.”
“i’m not embarrassed.”
“you literally are.”
sae looked deeply unimpressed.
then his eyes dropped back toward his phone, another text from you.
you: sae look at this baby halloween costume ☹️
attached was the tiniest lion outfit he’d ever seen. there was a long pause, then slowly — the corners of sae’s mouth lifted slightly. small, barely noticeable, but there.
his teammates stared in horror.
“…he’s smiling at the baby costume,” somebody whispered.
sae immediately locked his phone.
“…none of you saw anything.”
but later that night, when you curled up beside him in bed and started rambling softly about how cute your future kids would be-
sae wrapped an arm around your waist quietly and pressed a kiss against your temple.
“…our daughter would definitely boss me around,” he murmured sleepily.
you froze, then slowly looked up at him with the brightest smile he’d ever seen. and instantly, he regretted feeding your baby fever even more.
