A lovely procrastination drabble. I tried really hard to keep it short and simple.
Max squinted at the drawing scribbles Daniel presented him.
“What is that? Bread?” He was confused. “You have bread in the oven? Daniel, when did you even have time to take up baking?”
Daniel looks at him exasperated and just a little disappointed that his last minute pregnancy reveal wasn’t going well at all. He panicked when Max came home early, sue him. He spent more brain power hiding the damned stick.
“No it’s a bun. A bun in the oven” he said leadingly, wide brown eyes imploring Max to just…get it.
“Like a cinnamon bun? We don’t even eat those. Are you trying to bake instead of buying-“
“I’m pregnant Max. I’m trying to tell you I’m pregnant.” The pronouncement was flat and said with a sight, shoulders sagging.
Max scooped Daniel into a large, comforting hug. “Then why didn’t you just say?! Using these complicated clues.” He eased back to look into disappointed, yet hesitant honey eyes. “I am, of course, happy. This is amazing news, Love.”
