Challenge: [210] It's Cold Outside
word count: 442
Notes: Beware!Low flying fluff alert.
Selphie pressed a hand against the window pane, smiling at the webbing of frost that covered everything outside. Freezes were rare on the island, and she was fairly sure it would be melted by noon, which made her happy she had managed to crawl out of bed before the alarm went off. She rested a hand against the swell of her belly and whispered, “you’re going to be special, this is a sign.”
Time was slipping by though, and she knew better than anyone how reticent her husband could be to get up in the morning. She waddled back towards their bedroom, stopping to set a picture frame right. Selphie couldn’t help but smile at all the memories staring back at her. Pictures from when they were both young, all their friends lined up on either side, snapshots from Sora and Kairi’s wedding, candids from their own happy day. It seemed strange to count herself as a “grown up” and “married” but it meant happy things.
She rubbed her belly again, “I hope you look just like your father, even if you’re a girl. He’s definitely the pretty one in the relationship.”
There was a vague human shaped lump hiding under a mound of blankets. Selphie giggled at the ridiculousness of it all. “Honey,” she sing-songed, “it’s time to get up now.”
“Mmph.” Came the blanket-shaped reply.
“We’re supposed to meet Sora and Kairi for shopping.” She sat down on the edge of the bed, prodding the lump lightly.
“Don’t wanna,” he groaned, voice still thick with sleep, “it’s too cold outside.” He managed to slip a hand out of his cocoon, pat around the bed a bit before finally finding Selphie’s hand, and tugged her to lay down next to him.
“Riku.” She tried to sound stern, really she did, it was hard with him cuddling her neck and making ridiculous purring noises.
“This is a much better way to spend a day like today.”
Selphie sighed, trying to push him off, “we have plans.” she reminded, not even fighting the smile anymore.
Riku sat up, smirking in his decidedly Riku-way, “I say we put it to a vote.” He slipped down her body until his ear was pressed against her stomach. “Hey, baby,” he whispered, “it’s cold outside. What do you say we stay in here? Your Uncle Sora and Aunt Kairi can wait, right?”
He leaned back, looked at Selphie with a flat look. “Sorry hun, you’ve been outvoted,” and promptly wrapped an arm around her and resumed the cuddle position.
Selphie accepted it all with a giggle, “fine, but only for a bit. Then we are going shopping.”
