[Even though it's April, one of the common rooms seems to have a bit of a chill to it. So Riku's taken to curling up in an armchair next to a fireplace, coffee in one hand and a book in the other. Were one to look close enough, they would see the book is about babies and the delivering thereof. Quite incriminating evidence for anyone he hasn't told yet.]

[Kisses the top of his head.]

Are you planning on delivering the baby?

I figured that would make things easier on both of us.

'Both of us'?

[Wonders what he means.]

Yeah. Neither of us will have to worry about finding someone to help when the time comes.

[Because Aeriths aren't always around when you need them.]

Oh... that's true.

[Walks around the chair and crawls into his lap.]

[Sets his book and coffee aside on the end table next to him, bringing his arms around to hold her.]

How've you been? Feeling alright?

[Turns towards him, brushing his hair out of his face a bit.]

I'm alright. Cravings here and there, but the morning sickness has gotten better.

That's good. If you need me to get you anything, just say the word. And don't push yourself too hard, alright?

[Worried soon-to-be-fatherku is worried.]

Riku, this baby isn't going to be here for a while, you don't have to worry about me.

[Gives him a smile and a quick peck on the lips.]

But I do anyways. Can't help it.

[Still looks a bit unsettled, but less so.]

[Turns a bit and takes his hand, placing it on her belly and leaves hers on top of it.]

Are you excited?

[Leans closer to kiss her on the temple.]

Of course. Can't say much else in my life has been more exciting.

~~Not even that time we did it behind the--~~

Good to know.

[Leans against him, nestling her head under his and just smiles.]

~~Alright, that was pretty exciting.~~

What about you?

~~Yeahh, and the time in the library. on the desks.~~

Excited, nervous, it's all the same to me now.

[Lets out a slight laugh and rubs her thumb over his hand.]

~~We knocked off so many stacks of books, didn't we?~~

Not too anxious, I hope?

~~I'm surprised we didn't get kicked out of there. I guess not many people are in the library at that time...~~

Riku- [Takes his face in her hands and looks at him.] I'm fine, okay?

~~Maybe they just didn't want to interrupt us~~~

[Maintains his worried expression before finally letting it go.]

...Alright.

~~... that would have been awkward.~~

[Smiles and runs a hand through his hair.]

If I ever need anything, you will be the first one I call, I promise. and I'll make sure to keep you updated, too, if that will make you feel better.

[Just nods, trying to smile a bit.]

I can't help that I'm worried about you. In a place like this you know all the dangers there are, all the psychos running around. I just don't want you to get caught up in any of that- ever, but especially now.

I know, I understand.

[Cuddles up against him again.]

I just don't want you to be worried and anxious all the time. You have to relax too, you know.

[Holds her close, relaxing a bit.]

I'll try my best.

Okay, good.

[Pulls his face closer and kisses him on the lips.]
