8 months along

Another month passed Without much incident. Slowly but surely they remove the repertoire of songs YoungSaeng had to do. Just left them with a lot of down time. He spent most of it reading. Kyujong simply stayed with him

"Hey Saeng, how are you feeling?" Kyujong asked kneeling down as he continued to read.

"I'm alright. I guess I'm just a little bored." Youngsaeng replied putting down the book gently. Kyujong reached forward rubbing the belly and kissed his head. At that moment they were both at peace. The baby kicked. They were both astonished. It was beautiful.

"Wow she's strong." Kyujong said.

"Yeah. And beautiful." Youngsaeng agreed. It was a heartwarming moment. The rest of the band came in. They just sat there in silence. Finally they spoke up. They didn't want to ruin the moment

"Hey guys isn't that just wonderful." Hyungjoon said.

"I can't wait to see them once the baby gets here. It'll bring a tear to the eye." Hyunjoong said.

"Is it sweet." Jungmin said.

"Thanks guys." Kyujong said. That they had been trying for both of them. But knowing that the baby was okay what's satisfying. They held each other close that night. Youngsaeng and Kyu Jong wanted nothing more than to savor the moment. They were going to be wonderful parents. Soon day turned in to night and it was time for dinner. Ironically this is when Youngsaeng had his weirdest craving. He wanted eel. Well he didn't like seafood normally he loved that he especially loved it now. But the others obliged him.

"I could go for eel that actually sounds good." KyuJong said.

"I'll be in the car." Youngsaeng said. Then went to the restaurant Define the rest seated there but they had two tables specially for two. Candles were lit in a centerpiece was set. It was going to be a great dinner.

"I've got to admit you guys really went all out." Youngsaeng said. "We figured you two deserve to romantic night." Hyunjoong said. Youngsaeng and KyuJong smiled. And it's been a hard week. It was true that is earned a little time. Relaxation found them soon. The night past and laughter and good times but every night had its end. They wanted to see it was made peaceful.

"Thank you guys for being so thoughtful." Youngsaeng said.

"It's the least we could do." Hyunjoong said. The next morning came a bit to quickly. It was the morning of another boring meeting. This time it was with the manager. Youngsaeng had to decide how he was going to handle maternity leave. That was an odd concept to think about.

"So boys what are we going to do?" The manager asked.

"Ss501 will not perform without all of its members." Hyunjoong replied looking at the manager, "We perform as one or not at all."

"Alright I'm sorry to hear that gentlemen but I completely understand. I'll cancel everything." The manager said. Youngsaeng felt bad about making them sit out events. But he thought it was worth it. He could have used the company anyway. He was glad to see that they understood. He couldn't help but smile thinking about it.

"Don't worry about it Saeng." Kyujong said.

"Yeah we'll take care of you." Jungmin said.

"Thank you guys I love you all." Youngsaeng said. They all huddled around him. A moment later he was enveloped in a hug. The entire band just sat there for a moment. The manager smiled. Though he didn't like the thought of temporarily losing clients he had to admit very fuel bands were family.

The next day came as they started packing up tour supplies. Knowing they wouldn't need them, the band traded in their stockpile for child care supplies. By the end of the first day off the nursery had become a store room for towering boxes of diapers bottles and the like. Youngsaeng was so grateful he treated his bandmates to dinner. It was nice. The next day came pretty easily. In fact they got up that morning and actually decided to exercise together. With the exception of Youngsaeng they took turns in their standard routine. All the while he read What to Expect When You're Expecting. It was an odd Book for a guy to read but still something he thinks took comfort in.

"That was a rough workout." Kyujong said as he sat down on the couch.

"I know dear but it keeps you looking great." Youngsaeng replied. The rest of the day easy after after picking a new paint for the nursery. They decided to have a bit of a. They decided to have a bit of a moving times the band maid popcorn and watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. At the end they all fell asleep holding each other. It was a happy night.

**************

The next day was early. Youngsaeng had a doctor's appointment. Standard check-up was okay with they needed a sonogram. That was fine. They relished every chance to see the child. The doctor's office was buzzing with activity. The are smell fresh and almost like rubbing alcohol when Youngsaeng and Kyujong came in. He picked up his form still sleepy from the morning. He headed to wait for the doctor. But it was short.

"I was thinking reversible sheets for the nursery. We want one side pink on the other." youngsaeng said as they waited.

"I get it so it matches her." Kyujong smiled. The nurse came out and ask them back. They quickly found themselves in another room. Youngsaeng laid down on the bed while KyuJong sat in a chair. They waited a little bit longer before an Ob-Gyn came in.

"Good morning gentlemen. How is my favorite patient.?" The doctor smiled

"I'm okay just ready for the sonogram." Youngsaeng replied with a tired smile.

"Okay but first we need to check you." She replied with a warm smile.

"Okay I don't see any problem with that." He said

"So how are you feeling?" She questioned trying to make small talk.

"I'm a little nauseous," he shrugged, "other then that I'm fine."

"I can Prescribe you something for that." She replied, "Are you getting much movement.

"I have been actually. I'm Surprised at how active she is." he replied

"Well that is normal," She smiled. "Now lets check on her shall we?"

He nodded and layed down on the table and lifted up he shirt showing his stomach as the nurse put the cold gel on it.

"This is a little something new they call it a 4D sonogram." The nurse said, "And it helps to see the baby better."

"That's wonderful." Youngsaeng replied. The machine started with a low pulsing thing. It tickles against the cold gel. She moved the prob around for a little bit before they heard the sound of a heart beat. Soon enough they could see the baby. She was amazing. From the tiniest cutest little feet to the roundest little fat face. They loved every inch of her.

"she has your ears Saeng." Kyujong replied with a smile

"No those are yours." Youngsaeng replied as he looked at the screen

"Not those." Kyujong replied with a smile and pointed to the second pair of ears, her little kitten ears on the tip of her head. "Them."

"Awe how cute." The nurse said with a smile, "looks like she's gonna be a hybrid like her father."

"So how is she doing?" Kyujong questioned

"Oddly enough of everything seems to be forming properly." the nurse replied with a smile, "If all goes well you should have a nice healthy kitten."

"We prefer baby please." Youngsaeng replied with a smile

"Of course sir. I apologize" the nurse replied. After a few minutes of talking to the doctor they were aloud to leave the office with a dvd of the ultrasound.

"Let's get back to the dorm Saeng." Kyujong replied taking his hand and leading him towards the van. They hurried back excited to tell them all. As soon as they got home they slip the CD in the DVD player and they all watched. That night was all smiles and laughter. They were happy Parents

"Wow you guys she's beautiful."  Hyungjoon said. 

"I can't wait to meet her." Hyunjoong replied as he pulled jungmin onto his lap.

"Neh I can't wait to scratch her little ears." Jungmin replied with a smile

Later on the house wound down and everyone had made their way to bed. All the rest of the house was asleep Kyujong and Youngsaeng were too excited. They stayed awake and snuggled. Each took comfort in the other's arms. Soon they started to make conversation.

"Kyu I wonder what we're going to get her." Youngsaeng said.

"We have plenty of clothes and toys." Kyujong replied with a smile.

"I mean as a birthday gift." Youngsaeng added.

"Maybe a mobile?" Kyujong suggested.

"I guess that would work." Youngsaeng agreed with a nod.

"Just something simple for now." Kyujong replied  "Will get her something nice later."

They fell asleep wrapped in each other's embrace only to wake from it into chaos. They had woken up to notifications from fans. They had noticed Youngsaeng's change and not approved. They were rabid save for a precious few. He was a sobbing wreck. He thought the fans saw him as hideous. Kyujong simply wrapped him in a hug.

"The fans have spoken i'm an abomination."  He sobbed.

"Ani they're just afraid of something they don't understand. Humans are cowardly like that." Kyujong replied hugging him then kissing his head, "But it doesn't matter what they say. You're still beautiful to me."

Kyujong simply held him. But then one fan came forward. It was a sweet young girl from Georgia. The support she was refreshing she sent only one comment on Instagram.

"You guys are wonderful together."  it read.

"Look at this one." Kyujong said replied capturing his attention while pointing to the tweet.

"Wow she believes in us." Youngsaeng smiled. That little piece of encouragement was enough to brighten his day. So they got out of bed and the others for breakfast. That was quick though. Next what's the gym. For Youngsaeng this meant reading.

"It's okay if you want to come with us." Hyunjoong said.

"You guys have given me so much support it would be wrong of me not to at least morally spot you." Youngsaeng smiled. They were working pretty hard at the gym that day. This would be the last time they would go this month. Youngsaeng enjoyed his book but it was on its final chapter. He found it fitting as this was his last month

"That was a good workout guys." Youngsaeng said

"Am I making some gains right?" Kyujong smiled

"Neh, but your hot anyway." Youngsaeng replied. They went home doing little the rest of the day. They essentially took the rest of the day to rest. It was a sweet lazy day. It ended with another one of Hyunjoong's famous movie nights. This time he fell asleep. It seemed even that was enough to drain Youngsaeng.
