I squirm on the bed, feeling something curl in the pit of my stomach and I rush to my feet the next moment. "Areum?" Taehyung croaked, trying to find me on the bed with closed eyes, his hand patting the mattress trying to reach for me.

As soon as he realised I wasn't on bed, he jolted up, rushing towards the washroom. He sighs a little the moment he sees me leaning over the toilet. He squats down next to me as he removed the hair from my face. "Morning sickness?" He asked and I shrugged, falling back slightly from feeling weak.

I kept heaving, but couldn't seem to throw anything up. There was just a nauseas feeling that lingered in the back of my throat.

"I can't tell if it's because of the concussion or not." I let out and he sighed once more, rubbing my back.

"Why don't we wash up?" He helped me up after a bit, "and then I'll prepare something to eat."

"We?" I cocked my head a little and he held onto me firmly.

"I don't want you passing out in the shower." He lets out, a subtle smirk playing on his lips.

"I think I can handle myself." I chuckle a little trying to push him away but he refused to leave.

"No, no, no." He closed the door behind him, preventing me from pushing him out. "I'm showering with you." He said with a nod, his tone serious and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Come on now," he cooed teasingly, his hand reaching for my waist as he took of his oversized shirt that draped over me.

"What is that smell?" I grimaced at the dining table the moment he places a cup in front of himself.

"This?" He pointed at the cup, "it's coffee, do you want some?" He raised the cup towards me and the smell attacks my nostrils, stirring something up within me and I gag.

Taehyung instantly pulls away, eyes wide with shock as he stared at me. "I read about this," he peeped, moving the cup as far away from me as possible. "Apparently it's normal for pregnant women to be sensitive to some smells." He said and I frown a little.

"You read about this?" I asked and he nodded with enthusiasm, stuffing a piece of pancake into his mouth.

"I stayed up last night and did some research." He said and I instantly sigh with content.

"That's really sweet." I reached out my hand, grabbing his as I smiled and he simply mirrors my actions in response. "But isn't it a little early though? For me to start feeling the symptoms." I cocked my head to the side as he shook his.

"Some experience them as early as two weeks," he nods, "and you're 12 days right?" He confirmed and I nod. "So it's normal." He assured me and I simply sigh, poking at my food.

"This is really happening, huh?" I looked up at him, finally taking a bite of my food.

"It is," he gave my hand a firm squeeze. "And it's going to be everything." He says with certainty and I breathed out a sigh, trying to calm myself. "Do you know when's your next appointment?"

"Next week, so I'll have to miss my class." I stuffed another piece into my mouth. Taehyung pulled his hand away from mine, fishing up his phone as he typed something into it.

"Done," he placed his phone back down onto the table. He catches the confusion in my eyes and explains himself. "I just applied for an off day." He explained and I shook my head but before I could say anything, he grips onto my hand.

"I told you, I'm going to be here for you every step of the way, okay?" His gaze resting on me and I feel the warmth of his love embrace every inch of my being and a smile forms on my lips as I held his gaze.

"I love you." I say as he leans over the table, giving a quick peck on my forehead as he cleared our plates. "So, what are we doing today?" I asked and he looks to me with his lips curled into a smile.

"I'm glad you asked," he walked over from the sink to his living room, reaching for a bag and stuck it out in front of him. "I rented some movies for us to watch and," he pulls out a box from the paper bag. "Got you something too," he stuck out the chocolate pie and I squeal rushing towards him.

I wrap myself around his torso and he stifles a laugh as he looked down at me. "So you ready?" He flashes the CD and I nod.

"Think about it, in 9 months we'll have a little us." He plays with my hair as I laid on his chest. "And before you know it, he or she will be running around the house in their little diapers." He laughed, a smile spreading across his face at the thought.

I crane my neck, looking up at him as I studied the wonder in his eyes. "Do you think it's a boy or a girl?" I asked and his large hands reach for my tummy.

"Either one will be a blessing in itself." He says and I smile. He was genuinely happy with this pregnancy which made me feel at ease.

The movie played at the background but the both of us were too immersed in the conversation about the future to give attention to the screen.

"Hana," he says out of the blue. He looked down at me with eyes that brimmed with joy. "If it's a girl, how about Hana?" He asked as he rubbed circles into my tummy.

"Hana," I say as I felt the name roll off my tongue, falling in love. "I love it."

Taehyung smiles, contented with my reactions as he squeezes me lightly.

"And if it's a boy?" I asked and he went deep into thought.

"Haneul." He said after some time and I repeat after him.

"Kim Haneul," I smiled instantly just thinking about it.

"Hana or Haneul." I say as my eyes found his, "our child."

Taehyung pulls me up gently, kissing my lips right after repeating after me. He wrapped his arms over me as I laid on him and he whispers something. "I love you, Areum." He kissed the side of my forehead. "I can't wait to start this family with you."
