while mindlessly scrolling through the app tiktok on your phone, you realize you've been stumbling upon a few videos which have similar content.

all of which consists of others pranking their partners that they're pregnant to see their reaction, only to say that it's a prank.

your mischevious gaze darts towards dazai, your own husband as you finish watching one of those said videos. clearing your throat and tossing your phone aside, you watch as he strides in with his long legs, easily crossing the room to reach you.

"i'm home,"

he says as he slides his coat off his shoulders, leaning down to press a kiss to your forehead. you're on the plush cushions of the living area couch, lounging on the sofa. about to commence the prank, your hand rests on your belly.

this doesn't pass him, his eyes landing on the way you hold your tummy almost protectively. humming, he crouches down in front of you, hands on your knees. he tilts his head, regarding you.

"what's wrong, belladonna? something on your mind that you want to tell me?"

he suggests, his lips curling into a soft, caring smile. this makes you feel almost bad for pranking him, but you push it down. it has to be done. your free hand finds his, to which you squeeze almost reverently as you reveal the shocking "truth".

his eyes widen in pure joy, and he immediately slides to sit by your side, his other hand hovering over yours on your stomach. he blinks down, then back up at you. his smile brightens.

"is that right? you're really pregnant.. i'm going to be a father..?"

he squeaks, leaning in to press kisses to your face. oh god, how are you going to break it to him that it's not true at all now? way to go, {{user}}..
