Im glad you are loving the Fic So, here's an update hope you enjoy!I apologize if I'm not the best at replies also I should be asleep right now almost 1am...6 months later...
Miyuki was finally showing off her belly to which Sayaka loved. No matter how big Miyuki was going to get she would always see her as the most beautiful woman in the world... Even after all the sleepless nights she has had. It had been hard for Miyuki to sleep, tossing her arms and legs all over the bed to try and get comfortable. With her belly already out, she couldn't sleep how she would normally, on her stomach and hand tucked under her pillow.
With the belly growing she had to find new positions to sleep in and most of the nights she threw her arms from left to right to either sleep on her right side, left side, or on her back.
Even though it knocked Sayaka to the edge of the bed or completely off, she still woke up in the mornings to greet her wife and their precious baby in her belly. Everything was going great at the Yamamoto-Watanabe household.
However, at the Yokoyama-Shimazaki household, it wasn't going too well.
"Yui!" Haruka shouted from the bedroom.
Yui jolted up on the couch and looked around, forgetting how she even got home. "What?" She croaked, throwing herself back to lay and fall asleep again.
Instead of Haruka coming out she shouted again, "how many times have I told you to stop leaving your clothes thrown everywhere!"
Yui ignored her but suddenly she felt so thing smack her in the face. She woke up again, complaining that that hurt and just felt more clothes pile up on her. "Stop. Leaving. Them, thrown. All over the floor!" Haruka shouted.
Yui then threw the pile of her clothes aside, hitting the floor and stood up from the couch angry at Haruka for waking her early. "Haruka! I've been working long hours, I'm sorry I get home wanting to sleep!"
"Stop shouting!" Haruka harshly whispered, "Haruki is asleep."
Yui let out a frustrated sound. "You're shouting too!" And with that Haruki woke up crying.
"Look what you did!" Haruka crossed her arms, turning away from Yui and heading to the bedroom to attend to their kid. Yui followed behind her continuing to argue with her.
"Why do you keep yelling at me, Haruka? Blaming me for everything! I left this, I did this, I threw this, I broke this! I'm tired! I need to sleep, I'm working all night tonight too."
Haruka turned at her heels and Yui halted watching a finger being pointed at her, "Because you don't even help clean this house!"
"Because I work all day!"
Haruki ended up screaming some more and the two mothers walked into his nursery to find him sitting up in his crib crying. Haruka picked him and tried soothing him but it wasn't working.
"Give him to me." Yui stuck her arms out.
Haruka ignored her and turned away, pacing back and forth in the room.
Yui sighed. "I just want to help. I want to hold my son."
Haruka only glared at her while she tried bobbing. "Fine." She walked up to her and handed him to her. Haruka waited a few seconds for him to stop crying but Haruki only cried some more. "Give him to me."
"I barely got him. At least let me try." Yui tried to speak in a calmer voice. "He probably knows we are arguing. With the shouting."
Haruka sighed, crossing her arms again. "Give me Haruki and go back to sleep then. Maybe that will calm me." Without bother to wait for Yui to return Haruki, Haruka took him from her arms.
"Fine I'm going to sleep." Yui said, turning to leave the nursery with Haruki crying , which did hurt Yui for walking away from her son, but if this was what would keep it peaceful between her and Haruka she was willing to try this so her son could relax.
Miyuki was cut down on hours at work since Sayaka begged her to take it easy, so most of her down time she would spend it at home cleaning or going out for a walk, and other times she would stop by to visit Haruka. Today, she decided to see her friend.
When she arrived, she was greeted by Haruka cheerfully like usual but Miyuki and Sayaka had felt something off between their friends. They haven't asked since they are only waiting for them to say something, but neither of them have.
"Hi." Miyuki greeted, making her way in and shutting the door behind her. "How are you? How is Haruki?" Miyuki asked in a baby gone voice to get Haruki laughing which he did.
"We are... Alright." Haruka replied with a forced smile.
"Alright?" Miyuki asked, placing her bag on the kitchen table. Haruka made her way to the couch with Haruki in her arms. She sat down and Miyuki sat beside her. "What's wrong?" Miyuki asked.
"Well," Haruka shook her head. "Yui and I haven't been getting along."
Miyuki was actually surprised to hear this seeing the two were the most loving couple towards each other. "What happened?"
"I don't know," Haruka shrugged, "just one day we slowly began to argue about things and get annoyed with each other. I've wanted to apologize but it always comes back to me getting so mad at her."
"So the two of you have t had time to talk?"
"That's the thing," Haruka sighed, she was already of the verge of tears. "Yui, works all the time, I'm mostly here by myself with Haruki."
"Okay," Miyuki placed a hand over Haruka's leg, "first things first, we need to get you and Yui a day for yourselves. When is her day off?"
Haruka shrugged, "I don't know. We haven't been alone in so long I don't think I want to be alone with her."
"Oh, come on, maybe when the two of you are it will lead to a talk." Miyuki said.
"Hopefully..." Haruka had some doubt.
"I'll talk to Sayaka, ask her to at least find out when Yui is off. And that day we will take Haruki and you two talk."
"Are you sure?" Haruka asked.
"Yes. Right, Haruki?" Miyuki took the baby boy from her friends arms and held him up making cooing sounds causing the boy to laugh.
"He has his teeth now?" Miyuki asked, still trying to cause the boy to laugh, she found him adorable when he laughed showing his two bottom teeth.
Haruka gave her a nod, sitting back on the couch, she was relieved to take a short break from holding Haruki. "He bit my finger the other day and it hurt. Look." She showed Miyuki her index finger, a small cut on the inside of it.
"Ouch." Miyuki gave a faint chuckle.
"I have to watch him almost all the time because he began putting things in his mouth." Haruka laughed, "he almost ate Yui's dinner the other night, it scared me." But her laughter quickly subsided, recalling that night when the two began to argue. From that moment on it was almost an everyday thing, although they still get along just fine.
"He sees you eating and thinks it must be yummy." Miyuki broke her friends thoughts as she continued to play with Haruki.
Haruka only responded with a nod and smile watching Miyuki play with Haruki. She loved how she clearly saw a glow from her, guessing the pregnancy was going really well and the young woman was excited. "How are you feeling?" Haruka asked, reaching to feel Miyuki's belly reminding her of when her belly stuck out.
Miyuki turned to her while Haruki sat on her lap, pat patting Miyuki's belly. "Good!" She gave a wide smile, "I have been tired, but overall I'm doing great. Oh, but I have been craving certain foods and Sayaka hasn't hesitated in getting them for me."
Haruka laughed, "like what?"
"Watermelon with seaweed wraps. It's oddly delicious."
Haruka laughed even more and asked if she had tried to get Sayaka to try the things she comes up with. "She did enjoy that, but some of the other things she denies quickly."
"You're only torturing her." Haruka laughed.
"Hey, you did the same with Yui!" Miyuki protested, "I've heard the stories." She turned her attention back to Haruki once she felt him trying to grab onto her shirt.
Haruka stopped laughing and smiled, she remembered those times when the two acted just like Sayaka and Miyuki and Haruka knew she would hear similar stories once they had their baby and it only caused her to grin. Though her and Yui have been fighting all the time they have spent together makes up for it.
"What?" Miyuki asked finding her grinning on her own.
"Nothing." Haruka shook her head. "How about you try and change Haruki's diaper again. I swear this time he won't pee on you."
Miyuki pouted, "that was horrible. But I have to get use to it right?"
Days later, Yui was busy at work like she had been since she began this job. Minami never pushed her to but Yui felt she owed her for giving her this job and she only wanted to keep the restaurant running smoothly which it has been.
Apart from working the books/business side of it all, Yui also learn to waitress while she walked around the place making sure customers critics were excellent. She also, tried to learn a few cooking trick to do at home, make dinner for Haruka some day, when she wasn't so busy.
Minami had noticed her working hard the last few months, even being able to give her a raise since the place was booming, however it was worrying her that her partner was taking on too much.
Just as Minami and Yui were helping clean along with the waiters and busboys, the owner of the place approached Yui. "Hey,"
Yui turned to Minami, smiling at her once she realized it was her. "Hi. We were busy tonight, weren't we?"
Minami looked around, "we were." She smiled she finally succeeded away from her mother. "But," she turned back to Yui and became serious. "You need a break, you have been working almost everyday. At first I let it slide when you came in on your days off and now you haven't taken any days off."
Yui looked up at her like a kid, like she was wondering why she was being scolded. "But-"
"Yui, go home, take the week off or more I don't care, you can take off however long you want but I want to see you well rested. I bet your wife misses you along with your precious baby boy."
Yui looked down, her head hanging low. "Haruka and I have been arguing. It's almost everyday now... I don't want to go home just to avoid the fights but it always occurs."
"Atsuko and I have gone through this, only it was because of my mother." she chuckled. "Now, go home, talk to Haruka. It's what I did with Atsuko and now we are happy as ever. We still argue so don't think you should completely stop that, trust me I've learned my lesson."
Yui listened to her, considered it but what if it didn't turn out like she was saying. "Fine. But I'll only get a few days off and I'll be back to work."
"Yui, take a week off at least. I don't know why you want to work so much." Minami said, picking up the rest of the few plates on the table Yui was working on.
"Because I want to make enough to pay my parents off for Haruki's medical bill, pay off the next months mortgage, and take Haruka on a proper honeymoon since we never actually had one..."
Minami was in awe. "Yui, you are one sweet girl. But this takes time and overworking won't help. Take time off, spend time with your family and talk to Haruka. Now, go. We will close up and I'll head home to my wife and kid." Minami shooed Yui away and she couldn't do anything but head to the back to grab her things and head home.
As soon as she arrived, she took a deep breath in and exhaled, expecting for her wife to either be surprised she was early or get into another argument. She opened the door and to her surprise she found Haruka running up to her with the biggest smile on her face. "Yui, oh my god, come here!" She rushed her and Yui quickly followed. "He is crawling! Haruki is crawling."
Yui found Haruki on the carpet crawling to one of his toys and grabbing pushing himself to sit up. "He isn't crawling backwards anymore!" She looked surprised, happy overall.
"He isn't!" Haruka said.
Yui placed her things down and made her way over to Haruki, which Haruka followed over as well. Taking a seat on the floor, Yui picked up her son, giving him a kiss and talked to him, asking him when he was crawling again to which Haruka answered for him, sitting right beside her wife, she told her it happened just seconds before she walked through the door. Yui suddenly realized that if she had stayed at work longer she would have missed this moment completely.
Minami was right about taking some time off. She turned to Haruka with Haruki sitting on her legs while he, again like with Miyuki, patted Yui's flat stomach. "I'm having time off of work." She informed Haruka.
Her wife turned over at her surprised. "Really?" She asked.
Yui nodded. "Yeah. Minami gave me a week off, I'll be home and help you out. How does that sound?" Yui asked. She wanted to make sure it was alright with Haruka especially with the arguing.
"That... Sounds great!" Haruka tried to sound excited but she really did hold it back. It worried her too.
Without another word being said the two only turned to Haruki and began to spend their night with him until he fell asleep in Yui's arms on the couch. The baby boy laid on his tummy over his mothers, his head resting on her shoulder. She rubbed his back soothing him, her eyes closed almost falling asleep.
"Yui," Haruka appeared over the two. "Why don't you put him in his crib and come to bed."
She had opened her heavy eyes and shook her head. "I want him to sleep with me. I've missed him."
Haruka felt a tug on the corner of her lips. "Then bring him to bed."
Yui, with the last of her strength, got off the couch still holding onto Haruki and soothing his back to keep him asleep. Haruka let her go first and she placed her hand on her wife's back helping her get to the bedroom.
Asking Yui to place Haruki in bed so she could change out of her work clothes, the older girl shook her head. Haruka saw her being childish not wanting to let go of Haruki. She smiled. "Yui,"
Yui gave an okay and placed the boy in bed gently, he did twitch but Yui's voice soothes him back to sleep.
Tiredly she made her way over to her drawers taking out her pajamas only to lazily take her clothes off. Haruka quickly jumped in to help, almost giggling at Yui's tired state. She took off the white button up blouse, the black slacks, and bra, along with letting her hair down. Then Haruka grabbed the shirt throwing over Yui, who popped her head out the collar with a smile, staring at Haruka.
Haruka didn't seem to catch this until she felt eyes on her, almost like Yui wanted her to pay attention to her. Finally looking at her, Haruka blushed, it had been awhile since Yui looked at her lovingly. Haruka handed her the pants to put on, which Yui did on her own but never broke her gaze to Haruka.
Once set, Yui reached for Haruka's waist pulling her against her body, her forehead resting onto Haruka's, who reached up and caught Yui's face into her hands. They could feel each other's breaths become a tad heavy, nearing their lips like they wanted to kiss, which also had been awhile since they kissed.
"I'm sorry." Yui muttered.
Haruka felt her warm breath against her lips and Haruka could only apologize as well. "I'm sorry too."
Suddenly, not able to hold back, their lips crashed into each other's and enjoyed their moment, their kiss becoming intense like they haven't tasted those lips in so long, which was so long.
They pulled away, breathless. Yui kissed her one last time before taking her in and embrace, laying her head on Haruka's shoulder and tightly holding her close. Haruka only wrapped her arms around her as well and ran a hand up onto Yui's long black hair, holding her in place and never wanting to let go.
