Work Text:
Matt's fingers ghosted over his stomach as he looked at himself in the mirror.
Was he starting to show a little bit?
Sure enough, when Matt turned to the side, his stomach protruded just slightly.
Matt bit at his lip. He hadn't yet told Mello that he was pregnant and was nervous to give his alpha the news. Matt had never considered himself the nurturing type, even as an omega. Omega's we're supposed to be soft and gentle, both of which Matt was not. Was he even fit to carry an alpha's child?
Matt had had a hard enough time accepting Mello as his alpha as it was. Learning to trust that Mello would take care of him was hard, now he had to add this into the mix?
"I'm home!" Mello's voice rang through the house and Matt quickly lowered his shirt, hiding his bump. He'd have to tell Mello sometime...
Matt raced down the stairs to greet Mello at the door. Throwing his arms around Mello's neck, Matt planted a kiss on his cheek.
Mello laughed, hugging Matt back, "You miss me that much?"
Matt pulled away, smiling, "It gets boring without you here, it feels like all I do is play video games and nap."
"Well that's what you're supposed to do, you're my omega, I take care of you." Mello kicked off his shoes, then took a glance around the house. "Though it wouldn't kill you to clean as well."
"Shut up, I clean!" Matt hit him playfully.
"Clean or not clean, I think tonight calls for celebration." Mello headed towards the kitchen and Matt followed, curious, did Mello know?
"I actually have something I want to tell-"
Mello opened one of the high cabinets, searching through it, "The case I've been working on, we finally arrested the guy!"
Matt remembered that case. Mello had spent countless sleepless nights working on it. Occasionally Matt would sit down and try to help, though Mello usually preferred to do it on his own.
"And the thing you noticed, the paint under the victim's fingernails? It helped us get solid enough evidence to take the guy in." Mello said proudly, finally pulling a bottle of champagne from the back of the cabinet. "And thus, we celebrate!"
Matt hesitated. He couldn't drink if he was pregnant, but how would he get away with not drinking without Mello noticing?
"Oh, I don't know about drinking tonight-" Matt started to protest, but Mello was already taking out the champagne glasses and pouring his drink.
Mello handed Matt the glass, which he took reluctantly.
"Another case closed!" Mello lifted his glass and Matt clinked his against Mello's. As Mello tilted his head back, chugging the alcohol, Matt quickly dumped his drink out in the sink.
Mello lowered his glass, wiping his mouth as he smiled at Matt. "Wait, didn't you have something you wanted to tell me?"
Matt bit at his lip, he didn't feel like it was the right time. He wanted to first show Mello what a perfect omega he could be one. One that was worthy to carry his baby.
"Uh, we're out of milk." Matt lied. It was a double lie too, they weren't even out of milk.
"Oh." Mello scrunched his face up. "Well, that's fine, just buy some tomorrow."
"Yeah, I just wanted to let you know since sometimes you like to have mashed potatoes and you need milk for them." Matt cringed at his own lie.
"Well, I'm good without them." Mello leaned over, grabbing Matt by the collar of his shirt. "Besides, why would I need them when I have a fine meal right here?"
Matt flushed red as Mello pulled him closer, nuzzling him.
"You know, you haven't had your heat in a while?" Mello wondered.
Matt leaned up and kissed Mello. Partially to avoid the question and partially because he just wanted to kiss Mello.
Mello happily accepted the kiss. He bit roughly at his omega's lips, his hands greedily weaving up Matt's back until finding their way onto the back of Matt's neck. Lightly, Mello tugged at the hair there. The tugging sent tingles of pleasure down his neck.
Mello leaned down and picked Matt up by his legs so that he was straddling Mello. Gently, Mello carried Matt to the living room.
“Put me down carefully.” Matt warned as Mello headed for the couch. Normally, Mello would throw him down and roughly climbed on him. With his pregnancy, it probably wouldn’t be the best idea.
Mello did as he told him to and gently placed Matt down on the couch so that he was laying down. Mello sat between Matt’s legs, staring down at him.
“Are you pregnant?” Mello asked.
Matt’s eyes widened, “I-“
“You haven’t had your heat, you didn’t drink, you’re being very gentle, not to mention-“ Mello leaned down and smelled Matt’s neck. “Your scent is different… it makes me want to be soft with you.”
Matt paused, then slowly began to nod, “…Yes.”
“How far along?” Mello asked, his whole demeanor seemed to soften even more, as if he was worried Matt might break if he touched him.
“Not very long… almost three months.” Matt bit his lip.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Mello’s hand snaked up to Matt’s belly, laying his hand on it.
“I-“ Matt hesitated. “I was nervous… about being able to take care of it.”
Mello leaned down and pressed a kiss to Matt’s belly. “I don’t think you have anything to be worried about.”
Matt smiled, kissing Mello once more. As they kissed, Mello reached down and pulled down Matt’s pants, starting to play with his cock. It quickly got hard under Mello’s touch.
Mello reached down and pulled out his own dick, but instead of roughly shoving it in and fucking Matt, like normally he would do as an alpha, he was soft, gently making his way inside Matt and slowly fucking him.
Matt moaned as Mello made sure Matt felt every inch.
“Maybe I’ll fuck another baby into you.” Mello joked.
Matt rolled his eyes, but that was quickly stopped as Mello continued to stroke at Matt’s dick. Mello knew Matt’s body well, making the man moan louder and twitch with the pleasure.
Mello leaned down and pressed kisses to Matt’s collarbone. Matt’s eyes fluttered closer, it felt nice.
“I’m absolutely in love with you.” Mello whispered in between kisses. “I’ll take care of you, no matter what.”
Matt reached his hand up and rested it on the back of Mello’s neck.
“I love you.” Matt whispered.
“I love you even more.” Mello whispered back.
