Ohno smiled stepping back from the wall that he had painstakingly painted with a scene from Beatrix Potter’s books. So far there were Peter and Benjamin, with the mice, and Mrs Tiggywinkle. Each drawn in painstaking detail matching the books as perfectly as he could manage. It wasn’t his style but he thought that it was cute enough for a child more so as he had found a green carpet and then a rug with the theme online. There was also a cot with a soft blanket with Peter eating carrots. He had been working on it all for hours at day before going to the hospital to visit Nino and their son. At the moment he was drawing the sketches for the next wall which included himself and Nino in their wolf forms, still in the Beatrix Potter style meaning that they were standing up right and wearing clothes, with a tiny pup standing between them which was still shapeless at the moment as he hadn’t seen what kind of wolf his son would become yet.
“Alpha…” Masaki whispered knocking on the door of the nursery and Ohno blinked in surprise turning to look at him with a frown saying;
“Masaki I thought you were at the hospital…”
“…I called your baby Thingamabob and Nino got mad and told me to piss off…Mao-sensei told me that it would be better for Nino if I left…” Masaki told him sheepishly and Ohno felt his mouth twitch into something that was a smile but he squished it down “…Um…He’s upset…That you’re not spending time with him…He thinks that you’re angry because he wants to take the pills…”
“What? That’s stupid…” Ohno huffed regretting his attitude before. He had been disheartened to know that Nino wanted to take the pills but only because he was scared of the side effects, more than Nino was it seemed at the time, of course now he knew that Nino was as scared as he was but wanting to do it anyway.
“He’s just had a very scary birth ne! He’s allowed to be a little stupid at the moment…” Masaki told him with a grin and Ohno nodded flashing him a very tiny smile before the gamma rubbed the back of his own neck and continuing in a slightly nervous voice “You should go to him, ne alpha…Actually do things the other way…Stay with Nino and your baby until he’s asleep and then come and work on this…Which is awesome by the way! So pretty! But…Um…I think Nino needs you more than he needs a nursery painting…”
“…You’re right…I should go to him now…” Ohno agreed starting to put away his equipment until he was shooed away by Masaki who said;
“I’ve got this…Go to Nino…”
Ohno smiled at the gamma and ran for the door stopping only to wash his face and hands and make sure that there was no paint on his clothes. Sho was already waiting with the car a sheepish smile on his face and Ohno gave a chuckle slipping inside the car. He rested his head on the leather and closed his eyes, his body so tired that he instantly fell to sleep. His dreams were filled of his baby and Nino. In his dreams he was helping them into the house and he could feel the warmth of his son against his body and Nino’s against him and he couldn’t believe how happy he was even in just his dream.
“Alpha…Alpha you should wake up now…” Sho hummed shaking him by the shoulders and he woke up with a grunt and he nodded at the young man before walking to the hospital ready to apologise.
