You used to think that satoru would be detached and annoying in a relationship.
Well, he is annoying, at least you got that much right. A pest, at that.
“Babyyyy…” his whine is long. You really don’t know what’s with him today, he’s so… absurd. He’s always preposterous but today? It’s bad. And it doesn’t help that you had little to no sleep the night before either. “Come onnnnn”
You chuckle softly, unclasping his hands from around you so you can move. He really couldn’t bring this up any other time, it had to be while you’re cooking.
Well, to be fair to him, he’s been bringing it up all last wek.
“Are you crazy? ‘Toru, we barely just got engaged and–”
“And I don't care,” he rolls his eyes with another huf, lips set in a pout. You think that if he kept that face he’d get wrinkles. And you’re not exactly opposed to the dea; Satoru growing older doesn’t sound too bad at all. “Did you see them? They were so cute!”
“Babe… that was a brand’s advertisement… not a baby advertisement..” you cock your head as you speak; thinking that hopefully, he’s not serious. There’s truly no telling when it comes to your snow-haired lover. “They weren’t trying to convince us to get a baby.”
Cerulean eyes look away, finding reason in your words… much to his dismay.
“But that doesn’t make it any less convincing–!” At this point, you’ve given up on getting any sense in him.
You don’t respond, simply turning back to the counter, chopping vegetables for dinner. Your wrist moves at professional speed, always stopping right before it slices your finger too.
But in a sudden movement, your wrist slips and you nearly hurt yourself with the sharp knife at the feeling of arms caging your frame. “Satoru–!” your brows knit in the space between, trying to ignore the feeling of giddiness clouding you when his fingers ghost over your stomach.
“I want a baby,” he hums again, pressing his face in the crook of your neck. Your heart throbs, feeling the moist warmth of his breathing. He doesn’t kiss you yet, deliberately agitating you, leaving you hanging on the thread of anticipation of contact that never happens.
“We have to think it through,” you mumble coherently, wiping your hand off on the apron. “We’re not even married yet.”
“You know that’s not a problem for me,” Satoru argues, bringing you closer to him, deeper into his warmth. He will be the end of you. “We have time, it’s not like you’d get pregnant on the spot..”
“But..” You sigh. You want it, you really do. But you’re not certain it’s an appropriate idea… It’s a good thing Satoru is the one insisting, a telltale sign of his desire to build a family with you. To grow together, that’s what he always says. “Are you sure?”
“Have some faith in me,” it’s a plead, interrupted by a comforting kiss under your ear. “I know we can do it. We can only be so ready.”
Your teeth chew on the inside of your cheek, thinking your options through.
“Okay,” you breathe, barely audible.
“What??” He gasps like a little girl, face glowing with glee. “Are you serious? Please say you are. You’re not messing around with me, are you?”
He hoists you over his shoulder, landing a soft slap against your ass. “Finally I can put a baby in you.”
“Satoru!” You half-gasp, chuckling at his words. “I can walk”
“Ohhh yeah… that’ not lasting for long baby.”
