Chapter Text
No POV:
Steve waits impatiently in the bathroom, holding a pregnancy test that was about to show the results. Steve and Paulster have been trying for a baby for a while now, almost reaching up to weeks now. So far neither of them have gotten pregnant or have even shown signs of being pregnant.
But maybe today was the lucky day?
Steve takes in a deep breath and lets out a shaky sigh; he was nervous about what the results would be. Steve looks down and freezes as he sees two red lines. He was pregnant.
Steve started to feel tears fill his eyes, covering his mouth with his hand as he started to cry of joy. Steve suddenly stopped crying as he realized he needed to tell Paulster about the pregnancy. Now Steve knew Paulster wanted this, but he still felt nervous about telling him.
Steve stayed in the bathroom thinking about what he should do.
It took hours, but eventually Steve had the perfect idea about how to tell Paulster. Steve would make dinner tonight and then tell Paulster then! It was a perfect and reasonable idea. (For once.)
Steve flinches as he hears a knock on the door, “Stevie-poo? You alright in there?” It was Paulster. Paulster must’ve noticed that Steve had been in there for hours.
“Oh, yes! Just lost track of time.” Steve replied as he started washing his hands and hiding the pregnancy test somewhere Paulster wouldn’t find it. Steve opened the door to a worried looking Paulster.
“You sure? You know you can tell me anything, Stevie-poo.” Paulster said. It took all of Steve’s will to not shout that he was pregnant right then and there. Paulster hadn’t even known he was taking a test yet, since they planned on doing it after dinner together.
“I’m sure. You don’t gotta worry about me, Pauly.” Steve responds. Paulster still looked worried, but nodded their head.
“Okay, if you say so.. Anyways, can I use the bathroom now?” Paulster asks.
Steve fumbles over his words, “Oh yeah, of course, sorry.”
“Don’t worry about it, Stevie-poo!” Paulster replied happily, walking into the bathroom and shutting the door behind them. (Wonder what Paulster’s gonna be doing in there/hj)
Steve sighs, smiling as he thinks about what he’s going to be doing later that night. He had a lot more planning to do before that though. So Steve sat down on the couch with a notebook, and started planning more of it out.
Steve glances at the clock for a moment before looking back down at his notebook, and then snapping his head back up and looking at the clock again. Steve had two minutes until he needed to start dinner. Steve quickly got up and went over to the kitchen, starting to cook dinner.
Paulster comes up behind Steve while he is cooking, wrapping their hands around Steve’s waist. Steve chuckles, “Pauly wauly, I’m trying to cook.”
Paulster grumbles and lets go. “Fine, I’ll be at the table waiting.” Paulster replies.
Steve continues to cook, making some delicious soup. Steve fills up two bowls of soup and places them down on the dining table in front of Paulster and an empty chair that was meant for him. They only had two chairs at the table, since they didn’t want either of them to sit at a different angle away from each other.
Steve sits down with a nervous smile, “Pauly wauly, I have something to tell you.”
“So do I.” Paulster replies, a nervous smile of their own on their face.
They both take a deep breath, ready to tell each other at the same time. “I’m pregnant.” They both said, making the room go silent.
