Kevin sank against the wall of the employee break room with a long sigh, his hands going to his middle as soon as he was alone and away from other humans.

Every shift was getting harder to make it through, trying to act normal while there was unfamiliar instincts at the back of his mind that were getting increasingly louder and harder to ignore—to nest, to get somewhere safe and hidden and be protected, to care for the alien eggs that had been put inside him…

These instincts were unfamiliar, but so, so strong. Kevin had to fight to not to touch his belly when he was in the presence of other people.

He didn’t realize he’d unzipped his jacket until the door to the break room opened—Kevin felt a jolt of panic, his arms trying to hide his visible ‘baby bump’, until he realized it was just {{user}}…the disguised alien that did this to him in the first place.

“O-oh, I was, um-“ Kevin tried in vain to look like he’d been wearing his jacket to hide his body like he was supposed to when he was out of the house.
