SAD

              Hinrik sets his jaw, mouth pursing. Whatever displeasure wrought from this he will internalize, and expel later. But he doesn’t dare take it out on her. It’s not the way he was conditioned. Raised. Same difference. It helps that he’s so inherently slow to anger. Real anger. Molasses in January, as it were. His hand withdraws. He wants to hold her, compelled through his relief, but holds back.

                         “Not a very attentive one.” 

     The tone of his voice is dry. He exhales, a quick gust of air as he glances, very briefly, at her stomach. He almost doesn’t notice her move, inching towards him, mouth pressing against his. Hinrik’s lips thin, but like every time she touches him, he relents. Tense, unnerved, but always, always drawn to her, even now.  He doesn’t respond. And then—-

                      “You’re going to bed. Okay?” 

                   The last word is an afterthought. His voice exudes finality.

             there’s a weight pressing down on her chest.   it’s              FAMILIAR && PAINFUL && it makes her              want to CRY. this was her fault.    she’d been the               one lying.   not taking good enough care of herself.               it               was                HER             FAULT. 

                                             (  STUPID GIRL. )

                           ❝   ----  ❞  

              she tries to find her voice. be strong. nani pelaki            wasn’t                                            WEAK.  

                            (YES YOU ARE.)

                 she looks away from him && sits up,            pulling dark                   hair   away  from  her  face   before  resting  a  hand   on                   her stomach. she swallows thickly && shakes her head.

                   (   HOW CAN YOU BE A GOOD  M O T H E R                IF YOU CAN’T EVEN TAKE CARE OF Y O U R S E L F.             S T U P I D. YOUR PARENTS WOULD BE SO ASHAMED. )

                                   she  gets  up  &&  walks  silently  to  their  bedroom,                                    too TIRED  ----  too BROKEN  ----  to fight back.                                     she could pretend  all she wanted  that she was                                     strong. that she didn't need support.    she’s a LIAR.                            she HAD to be strong for lilo.   now she HAD to be                                      strong for a baby? it was only a matter of time before                                     reality caught up to her. he didn't need to see that.

                so,      she laid down on the bed && pulled the                 covers up  to  hide  against  the  soft  material,                  tanned fingers grasping gently at her stomach,                 trembling as she held everything in. AGAIN. 

GOOD FATHER

         There’s a jolt of anticipation as she finally, finally stirs. He’s found some semblance of composure within the seconds it takes her to rouse herself out of unconsciousness, somehow. But he doesn’t let his gaze stray from her face, doesn’t think he’s even blinked. Ink-black lashes flutter, and then the familiar sight of warm brown eyes stare back at him, tired, but not particularly discomforted. He feels like a weight had been slowly dragged off of his shoulders, the way firm hands ripped away a heavy blanket.

                    Nani speaks, deflects. She had fainted only a moment prior, and the first                               thing she’s concerned about is a frame. It nearly baffles him.  

“I’ll get another.”

   His response is stiff, dismissive. He doesn’t trust his voice, hoarse, struggling to tamp down on the concern he’s almost certain she’ll only mock. He doesn’t tell her how much he doesn’t like having his feelings invalidated. It doesn’t matter. He can tolerate that. Hinrik can’t even decide if he’s upset or not. He’s only really certain of one thing, and that is the fact that he’s glad she’s okay. A calloused palm touches her cheek, grazing jawline, fingers curling against a mess of black hair.

               “You… scared me. You told me                               you’ve been sleeping, Nani.”

       her expression is tired,     but she’s THANKFUL.         every time he takes care of her,   he proves just how        great of a father he’ll be. calm, collected.     slightly         trembling. she just YELLS at lot when she’s upset.

                      ❝  -------you’re going to be                           a great father, ya know?  ❞

       she mumbles, refusing to apologize,     but acknowledging his concern.         she leans over and presses a kiss to his lips,   gentle && almost timid.        she’s not SCARED of him by any means.           she just HATES to         disappoint him. she hated sitting still. of course she’d worn herself thin.

               ❝  i love you. i’m okay.  ❞

                        IT’S HARD BEING THE QUARTERBACK WHEN YOU                         GET IN THE  HUDDLE  &&  EVERYONE  IS  CALLING                          YOU                                     “ D E E P   T H R O A T. “

LIKE FOR A STARTER ! 

psa that you're such a good nani & i stalk your threads bYE.

i should put more effort into nani, but people like you make me actually want to do that -- so THANK YOU!

talks to the baby when he thinks she's asleep.

                    her two years of raising lilo had her quite   ATTUNED                     to bumps in the night.    sure, she could be hard to wake                    after a long night of working,     but  when  it  came  to  a                    shift in the bed from her little sister ---------    or, now, her                    boyfriend moving around more than normal ----- she was                    easy to disturb. so, when hinrik started talking, she could                   only lay there, curious && confused, all at once.        for a                    moment, she was sure he was talking to HER.     but, he                    was       at       head-level       with       her    STOMACH. 

        ❝ ..... ❞  

                               she remains silent as long as she can, staring down at                         him with a slightly amused grin. he wasn’t just talking.                                 no,    he  was  showing  her  stomach  youtube  videos.                                OF ALL THINGS. he’s so innocent && gentle &&                               perfect as a father already.        it made her eyes sting. 

                the sad part was the baby was RESPONDING.

                                  ❝  ---------hey, you two. keep it down with all th’kickin’                                     && talking, would ya?  nani needs her beauty sleep. ❞

carefully lays his head against her stomach.

            she’s  reading when she feels him shift on the  bed.            warm brown hues shift down to him before a look of pure && utter                 ADORATION as she watches him. teeth claim her lip  before                 she sets her book to the side and gently places her  hand  on  top                of his head, fingers brushing through his messy hair.       the baby                always got a  bit  more  active   when  hinrik  was  close  like  this. 

     ❝   —-they learned to talk yet?     i figure they’ll          be as smart as you.    but, you know, get my          looks. wouldn’t want ‘em getting TEASED.  ❞

{ ｃｏｎ． }

                 she’s not laying there LONG  before  dark brown                         hues open to stare, a bit hazily,   towards the male                         sitting in front of her. she doesn’t speak at first.  no,                        her  gaze  first  wanders  to  how  he’s holding onto                         her hand for dear life --- WORRY --- && then the                         mess of glass && plastic of a picture frame. a sigh                        passes tired lips as she closes her eyes again &&                        brings his hand up to press a kiss to his  knuckles.                                     ( his worrying for sweet,   at best.                                       && cataclysmic to her pictures. ) 

         ❝ ------you broke a frame.              what  if   i  needed  that              for baby footprints, huh? ❞ 

                            she mumbles tiredly,   lips cracking just                              the SLIGHTEST smile. he’ll be upset                              with her.     she’s been  l y i n g  after  all. 

                                                ( ‘ i’ve been sleepin’ fine.                                                      i’m not tired.  i feel fine.                                                     i     can     handle    this. ′ )

   BECAUSE GOD FORBID NANI PELEKAI BE A SLACKER.                             even when she’s quite visibly pregnant. 

DORK      

             The smile that curls his lips is wry, but not unkind. He raises an eyebrow, kissing her back firmly, briefly, indulging himself as well as her. His smile broadens, lips stretching around his teeth in a grin that’s very nearly cheeky.

                 “Uh huh. You like it.”

   He sounds almost sly, and his expression matches his voice, but he lets her take his hand and lead him out of the park. Toothless follows diligently, happily oblivious. He releases her hand to curl his arm around her shoulders, pull her warmly to his side.

                      ❝  ---maybe. maybe not.  ❞ 

       she smirks && kisses his  shoulder  as  she        wraps her arms around his middle,        hugging herself close to him. he  was  warm.         they looked cute together ---- even if they did        look like a dwarf && a giant. she walks   with         him all the way to their apartment,      grateful         to be able to get out and walk when  their  was         nice weather outside. once they were back at        their home,    she  looked  towards  toothless.

                                   ❝   -----------hey, do ya think tooth will be                                         good with a baby in the house? mama’                                         would  nev’a  let  us  have a  dog when                                                           lilo was a baby. ❞

            “I’d say true love. Call me optimistic. Let me live in the fantasy.” 

  Hinrik shakes his head, tempted to roll his eyes. He doesn’t. Simply takes her hand, tentatively hoisting her up onto her feet. He finds himself being more delicate with her, without realizing it. As she turns her back to him, however, Hinrik’s eyes are immediately drawn to her backside. 

                     “I—- no. No, it looks great. I mean you’re good. Nothin’ on you.” 

                    as she turns back to him she smiles && stands                     on her toes to peck his lips.              he’s CUTE.

            ❝  thank    you,    baby.        even                 if  you are a   ｐｅｒｖｅｒｔ．❞ 

                            she teases him with a small laugh.  she                             takes his hand and tugs him towards the                             exit.     his  hands  are  too  big  for  hers.
