✾ The Delicious Tomato Lullaby ✾
✾ You're WHAT?! ✾
"Romano! Romano!" Spain cried, crouching next to him and slapping his face gently. "Wake up! Romano!" she smacked him harder and shook him back and forth by his shoulders, desperately trying to wake him. This wasn't how she had thought it would go! He wasn't have supposed to reacted this way!
With a few mumbles and flutters of the eyelids, Romano finally awoke, putting a hand to the lump on the back of his head and looking up at Spain. For a moment, he wondered what on earth had just happened, and then he caught sight of the pregnancy test lying near his chair. His eyes fell onto Spain's belly.
"You're...you're pregnant?!" he yelled. Spain nodded, trying to smile. "But...but...how?!"
"Well, when a man and a woman love each other very much—"
"No! I mean, I know how, I just...how can you be pregnant?! We were very careful!" he just couldn't understand this! How was it possible? Every time they had sex, Romano had made sure that he had put on a condom before penetrating her for this exact reason!
"Sometimes those things can break, Lovi. It's happened to people before." she rested her hands on her belly and stared at the ground. Tears welled in her eyes, and she bit her lip so as not to cry.
"You can't be pregnant! That's not how this...nations aren't supposed to...our bosses..." there were too many thoughts racing around in his mind to voice all of them. "You're...I'm...parents and...are you sure you're pregnant?"
"Yes. I...I went to the doctor after I t-took the t...test!" she broke off and began to cry, her sobs snapping Romano out of his panic.
"Oh...oh no, please don't cry Toni..." he winced, reaching for her awkwardly and wrapping his arms gingerly around her. Spain hugged him back so tightly that she almost knocked the wind out of him. He blushed as she sobbed onto his shoulder. "Toni...Toni, it's okay...p-please stop—"
"You don't w-want our baby! You d-don't want it! You d-don't want to b-be a d-d-daddy!" she cried, bowing her head and pulling away from him. Her hands wrapped around her own middle, and she rocked back and forth slightly, hiccuping.
"No, that's...that's not true—"
"Y-yes it is! You d-don't want—"
"Toni! Would you listen to me?" he snapped, reverting back to his preferred form of communication; yelling. "Jesus! Of course I want our baby! God, why wouldn't I? You're so stupid sometimes!" Toni looked up at him in shock, her mouth forming a perfect "o" of surprise.
Then, rather alarmingly in Romano's book, she smiled and pulled the Italian into another hug, tears lessening and sniffles subsiding. Romano sighed and rolled his eyes again, patting her back.
"Don't worry Romano, I'm sure you'll be a good daddy." she whispered into his shoulder.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." secretly, he was sort of happy about this kid. It was the perfect way for him to have an excuse to propose to Spain and not be accused of "going soft" by his brother and the other annoying people he had to put up with every day.
Spain smiled and broke the hug, sitting back and sighing. She rubbed her eyes and took her hand in hers, green eyes sparkling. His hand was placed flatly against her belly, and she laid hers on top of his.
"We're going to be parents." she smiled. Romano blushed and cleared his throat, trying not to smile.
"O-okay. Yeah, alright."
"It's good, isn't it?" a small smile tugged at his lips upon hearing Spain's question.
"Yeah...yeah, it is."
D'aww, family moment! Do you think they should have a boy or girl?
