Synopsis: JunSu knew it was impossible....
A/N: I feel so guilty when I neglect my chapter fics. Other stuff seems to get in the way since I have such a short attention span. I wrote this some time last year, and I guess I wanted to get it off my chest so to speak. It's not meant to be taken seriously, more a like a jab at m-preg and something quick to pass the time. Truly, this is a one-shot that has no substance whatsoever.
The matter never should have been up for the debate, much less been comparable in his mind for the sole fact that males didn't have the necessary...parts. And to the best of JunSu's knowledge, which he currently found himself questioning, he was sure he was born sans uterus and anything else warranting taking more than just his personality from his mom.
At first, JunSu thought it was his metabolism finally catching up with him or maybe YooChun snuck over to his apartment and switched the mirrors when he wasn't looking. Lack of sleep would have been much easier to accept. Really, anything else would have been easier to accept.
But five months and four positive pregnancy tests later (including three weeks of eating strawberries, pickles, and croutons in his peach yogurt) brought JunSu to the impossible conclusion that he was in fact pregnant.
Other than the slightly off-putting, or if JunSu wasn't kidding himself, downright weird cravings, the only tell-tale sign was his clothes: the shirts and pants that were suddenly fitting well and even becoming a little too tight. Sometimes there was a sharp pain in his lower back, too; possibly coupled with an occasional wobble in his walk that for once he couldn't blame on YooChun.
And then there was his ever expanding stomach that made JunSu wish he drank enough beer to actually call it a beer belly.
Apart from going to the hospital, which, despite his condition, JunSu wasn't going to risk for the sake of his sanity, late nights hunched over his computer reading about pregnancy and any other maladies that he couldn't find to fit the bill didn't make it conclusive.
No, it was the series of little jolts that convinced him, the small kicks that came from inside his stomach when YunHo poked him for the third time.
"Hyung..."
"...yes, JunSu" He answered absently.
"Would you please stop petting it...please?"
"I think it's a girl"
JaeJoong shook his head. "I'm telling you, it's a boy"
JunSu, using more force on part of JaeJoong's reluctance, pushed the lead singer's hand away, pulling his shirt down as he moved to the other side of the couch.
"Am I the only one who thinks - I don't know - that something's wrong with this picture?" ChangMin asked, voice beginning to border on hysterical.
Granted, if he hadn't been talking to himself in their shared apartment, the other occupants would have been none the wiser. Initially, he tried to pass it off as a slip of the tongue, something he'd said jokingly. Except they took his outburst seriously, and he hadn't expected them to take the information so...well.
ChangMin straightened his glasses. "I think it's fascinating, really. And I'm curious to see -"
"ChangMin" JunSu interrupted.
Slightly tilting his head to the side, ChangMin looked at JunSu curiously. "Hmm?"
"You can stop talking now"
"Actually" ChangMin began, crossing his arms as he leaned against the wall. "I think the real problem is what YooChun-hyung is going to think"
JunSu groaned, covering his face in his hands as he leaned into his knees. He was sorely tempted to push JaeJoong away when he felt a hand rubbing circles on his back. The gesture wasn't as calming as he probably thought it was.
"Ah, I wouldn't worry too much about it, Su-ie" JaeJoong said, and the younger could imagine the scrunched smile on his porcelain face. "YooChun's always been good with -"
"I've always been good with what?"
JunSu felt his shoulders begin to shake when he heard YooChun come into the room. He couldn't decide rather to laugh or cry when ChangMin tried to ease YooChun into the conversation.
"You see, Chun-hyung, when a man and a woman - or in your case, a man and another man… "
JunSu shot up from the bed with a gasp, falling off in the process and landing on the floor with a loud thud.
He heard YooChun calling his name, voice frantic as the other man turned on the lamp on the nightstand. Sitting up on floor, JunSu blinked owlishly as YooChun cupped his face. He felt thumbs pressing softly into his cheeks as he stared into YooChun's panicked gaze.
"Su" YooChun said again, this time pulling JunSu out of his daze. "What's wrong?"
JunSu continued to stare at YooChun for a moment, eyes widening before he moved the other man's hands from his face. Frantically, he pulled up his shirt and let his hands roam over his stomach.
He knew it probably looked ridiculous, though he couldn't help but sigh in relief when he found his stomach relatively flat and free of internal movement. He sagged against the side of the bed, ignoring the strange look YooChun was giving him.
"Umm..." YooChun began hesitantly, staring at JunSu's hands, which were still resting on top of his stomach. "Nightmare?"
JunSu closed his eyes. "If you count scaring me out of ever having sex with you again...then, yes"
YooChun quickly became attentive, sitting up as he looked at JunSu expectantly. There was more than a small amount of concern filtering through his voice. "Are we talking about sex in general or sex with me?"
"Sex with you is kind of up for debate right now"
"Was it anything bad?" YooChun asked, this time more seriously. "What happened?"
"I was…" Sighing heavily, JunSu opened his eyes, slowly turning his head to look at YooChun. "I was…pregnant"
"You were…"
"Yes. Pregnant, knocked up, expect -"
"Was it mine?"
JunSu paused, sparing YooChun an exasperated look before speaking again. "Expecting, feeding for two. With a child Jae-hyung was convinced was a boy, YunHo-hyung thought was a girl, and then neither of them would stop touching my stomach because…did you - did you just snort?"
"No" YooChun replied hastily, looking away and not allowing JunSu to see his face. But his lover didn't need to see the other man's face to notice the slight tremors travelling throughout his body.
"You're laughing at me" JunSu accused incredulously. "I can't believe you're actually laughing at me"
Now that JunSu knew, YooChun didn't bother to hide his laughter. "Come on, Su. You had a dream that you were pregnant"
"Laugh it up while you can. You're not the one who had the dream" JunSu narrowed his eyes at YooChun. "And here I thought you were supposed to be the sensitive one"
YooChun put an arm around JunSu's shoulder, resting his head against the other. "If it's really bothering you, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings"
JunSu scoffed. "Like you could ever hurt my feelings"
"Well, if that's the case…"
"What?"
"Is that why you're always walking around barefoot in the kitchen?" YooChun said with a wide grin, dissolving into another fit of laughter as JunSu pushed him away.
