Chapter Text
“Jihoon, you shouldn’t leave. This child is yours,” Soonyoung said while caressing his now obvious tummy.
The other looked at him like he just grew another head. “What the hell are you talking about? We fucking did it just once, Soonyoung.” He half-whispered, half-shouted.
“Don’t say bad words!” The taller guy glared at him. “The OB said that the baby can hear everything inside one’s tummy.” Soonyoung explained to which earned a groan from the other male.
“Whatever. That’s not mine. We used protection that night. You know that!”
“Don’t you remember what happened that night, Mr.Lee? Your force is that strong enough to put a hole on the protection you’re talking about,” Soonyoung recalled. “I told you to stop but you’re too carried away, you just continued perfectly aware about the possible aftermath.”
Jihoon suddenly felt cold sweats dripping from his forehead, his hands getting clammy.
“H-How would I know I’m the only one you get to do that with this past few months? How can you be so sure I’m the father?”
“Lee Jihoon, you’re cruel.” It’s the only thing that managed to escape out of Soonyoung’s lips. He’s too dumbfounded and hurt at what the other said.
Jihoon knew. He perfectly knew that he’s the guy’s first. He just can’t accept the fact that another responsibility is weighted down to his shoulder besides the company.
Soonyoung’s tears started streaming down his cheeks. Well, pregnancy makes someone emotional.
“I don’t even know why I liked you, Jihoon. To you, I might be just one of your flavor of the months...but to me you’re my everything.” Soonyoung whispered the last part biting off his lower lip to prevent himself from crying.
“But my father will kill me.” Jihoon said, with his head hanging low.
Soonyoung grimaced. “And what about me? Do you think my parents won’t kill me too? I have my dreams too, Jihoon. That night was a mistake, I know. But I can’t...give up this little angel inside of me.”
‘That night was a mistake.’ Okay, Jihoon’s heart cracked a bit. That was actually his happiest. He may have so many flings but the one he has with Soonyoung is certainly the most special.
But of course, he won’t admit that.
“You know what, Jihoon? Never mind. I’ll just find a way to raise my child.” Soonyoung bitterly uttered. “You can forget this conversation ever happened.”
The other just stood there. Not really knowing what to do. He’s set to leave for New York to study their business.
But then, Soonyoung came and broke out all this news to him and everything’s too sudden to him.
He bit his lower lip as he watched the other turn his back as he walked towards the exit.
Soonyoung, on the other hand, clenched his fists, calling himself stupid for faling in love with the stuck-up, arrogant man who can’t even take responsibility.
Saying that night was a mistake was a lie too. He clearly wanted it.
He caressed his tummy as he whispered, “Soonji, your Daddy doesn’t want us. Don’t worry. Papsy won’t abandon you. Even if my family disown me, I won’t give you up.” Another set of hot tears streamed down his cheeks.
“What did you call our child?”
Soonyoung’s eyes grew wide when he heard that familiar voice from behind him. He looked back and saw the Jihoon walking towards him.
“What do you mean our child?” Soonyoung finally blurted out.
“Sorry for being an ass— okay, being a shit—...uhh, what should I call myself without cursing. The baby might hear.” Jihoon said in the cutest way possible Soonyoung almost squeal.
“Okay, sorry for being a pain. Everything’s just too sudden for me. I still don’t know what to do. And I don’t know what my Dad will do to me...but, please...don’t take away my right as our baby’s dad.”
Soonyoung saw the redness on Jihoon’s ears.
“I’m confused earlier, okay. But when you told me, you’re gonna raise your baby alone, I felt a sudden pang here.” He pointed to his chest. “And find the need to go after you. So, here I am.”
Soonyoung stared at the way Jihoon shyly chewed on his lower lip.
“I just want to be part of the baby’s life,” the other said softly, but enough for Soonyoung to hear. “I...”
Before he can even continue, Soonyoung pulled him into a hug, looking horrible with all the crying he has done. Jihoon patted the taller’s back. “I’m sorry. Sorry you have to go through all of this because of me.”
The other shook his head. “No, Jihoon. Thank you for blessing me with this sunshine in my tummy.”
Jihoon broke the hug and caressed Soonyoung’s tummy.
“What did you call the baby again earlier?” He asked as he draw circles on the other’s stomach.
“The OB told me, it’s a healthy baby girl. I decided to call her, ‘Soonji’. Yeah, like...Soonyoung plus Jihoon.” He blushed at that and it didn’t go unnoticed to Jihoon.
“Hello, Lee Soonji. I’m your daddy.”
