"Humh ~~~"
"La la la ~~~"
After placing the last dish in the cupboard, Isagi hurriedly wiped his wet hands on the apron and eagerly headed towards his baby's room. Finally, he could spend some time with Yohan.
When there were only five steps away from the door of Yohan's room, he heard some giggling. Of course, that was Kaiser. And Isagi smiled to himself before halting. Instead of breaking the scene, he only peeked through the small crack, as the door was not completely shut.
"Humhhhhhh ~~~ Uhmm ~~~"
"How could you be this cuuuute???" Kaiser asked. His voice rose like he was genuinely curious.
"Chu! Puphhh!" It took Isagi a fist in front of his mouth and pursing his lips to stifle his laughter. Kaiser was doing that again. At this point, he seemed to be addicted already. Nobody could help him. Even Isagi found kissing Yohan's belly the most relaxing thing ever.
"Meow ~~~ Meow ~~~ Meow meow meow ~~~" But when this cat melody started, he could no longer hold it. A warm chuckle leaked from behind the door, making Kaiser startle. He jolted like a cat getting a sudden pinch. Isagi could even imagine his invisible tail shooting towards the sky.
Nevertheless, right at the moment he saw Isagi, the surprised expression morphed into fondness. He turned back to Yohan and coaxed him while lifting him up. Their baby peacefully nestled in his chest. His chubby cheeks pressed against Kaiser's toned muscles, making them look even more like fresh dumplings.
"If one day cat ears appearing on Yohan's head, you will not escape the blame, Micha." Isagi teased while carefully taking their baby into his arms. His eyes were full of gentle affection. Yohan was awake, looking up at Isagi with puppy-wide eyes and a pure blue inherited from Kaiser. Even though his neck was still so weak, he seemed to love watching his parents all the time.
Isagi gently rocked Yohan while muttering: "Aww my Yohan~ Do you wanna dance?"
Seeing his son making faint lip-smacking sounds and small bubbles appearing at the corner of his mouth, Isagi snickered. He leaned in, softly pressing his forehead against Yohan's: "Aww, you're already hungry? Humh? I think you are eating a bit too well for someone with such a small body. Do you think sooo?"
Then he handed Yohan back to Kaiser. His husband was already unbuttoning his pyjamas to let Yohan breastfeed.
Before Yohan started his late meal, Isagi patted the bed beside him. "Wanna lean on me, Micha?" he said with a bright smile, tilting his head and opening his arms wide.
Kaiser nodded and sat down. He let his back comfortably sink into Isagi's broad chest. While Yohan was sucking at his breast, Kaiser took time to snuggle his nose into Isagi's neck, savoring his husband's warmth. Seeing him melt like that, Isagi couldn't help but plant a peck on the blonde's fluffy hair.
"Thank you so, so much, Micha," he mumbled as he took in Kaiser's scent.
Upon that, Kaiser tilted his head up and gave him a curious look. So Isagi immediately kissed him. Before parting from Kaiser, he looked into those pure eyes, saying each word solemnly like a vow: "Thank you for marrying me. Thank you for giving birth to Yohan and for taking care of him."
After a few seconds, Kaiser hid his taken-aback face and averted his gaze to Yohan. Isagi knew his husband was thinking deeply again, and he was always patient enough to wait.
They continued to stay quiet until Kaiser broke the silence: "If it’s you, I’m willing to."
Just that. Then he returned to quietness again. Only his face flushed a little. But that alone was enough to stir Isagi's heart. Just a few beats passed before he bent down to face Kaiser. As their eyes met, Isagi gave him another kiss. So softly, so endearingly, so affectionately. Kaiser himself did not want to part. Isagi's sweet kisses were all he needed to recharge.
Some of his thoughts wandered back to the moment when they received the pregnancy news.
It was unplanned. Completely unexpected.
Kaiser was an omega, but throughout his adolescence filled with countless tests and check-ups, all the doctors concluded that he could not give birth to children. This was inevitable. Having been brutally beaten and left malnourished as a normalcy, his body had no other choice but to cut down on energy that could have gone towards his reproductive system.
Never, for even a single moment, did he feel sorry. Football was his everything. Although his heart never stopped yearning for love, deep inside his mind, a voice kept telling him that a family was not for someone like him.
That was until he met Isagi.
"No alpha would want to bond with an omega who could not give birth," he thought. So he retreated.
"You'd better be a proper obstacle in my life." No. Those words completely contradicted what he wanted to say. But he had no choice.
Better to ruin it before it hurt them both.
"Can we train together?" Words like that couldn’t escape his throat when Isagi left the field, leaving him stranded like a lost ship.
All the chances were missed.
The files containing comments on Isagi's plays simply got deleted from his phone storage.
The concerned words were only muttered into Isagi's ears while he was in a deep slumber after their match against Manshine City.
The collection of all Bastard Munchen home kits he brought from Germany stayed gathering dust throughout NEL. On the day he left Japan, they went back with him.
Kaiser was ready to package his first love and bid it a last goodbye.
What he was not ready for was Isagi's appearance in Munich right after the U-20 World Cup.
All of the rumours pointed towards a long-term contract between Isagi and Real Madrid. They were the main reason why Kaiser chose to stay at Bastard.
To no one's surprise, he was confronted by Isagi right after his first training day. In a stunning hue mixed with purple and orange, while the last sun rays were leaving the sky, Isagi spoke, still panting, his voice as clear as crystal: "This time, I will not lose you again, Michael Kaiser! No matter what!"
As Isagi's tears trickled down his cheeks, Kaiser heard his resistance crumble loudly.
Then, as quickly as he had arrived in Munich, Isagi built his own home in Kaiser's heart.
Day by day, Kaiser's breakfasts were prepared by Isagi.
Their ways home, since nobody noticed, merged into one.
Suddenly, Kaiser found his reason to wake up every morning lying next to him, with even breaths and a warmth he had always longed for.
After many years, genuine smiles tugged on his lips. Not just once in a while, but every day.
And...
only one last defensive line was left.
"I can't give birth to children, Yoichi..." Kaiser mumbled, barely audibly, as if he was trying to run away and disappear.
Isagi did not say anything. Instead, he slowly leaned in and held Kaiser's quivering fingers tightly, as if he wanted them to bond forever.
So, after their Champions League victory in Lisbon, in the dimly lit hotel room, their one-hundred-year promise was uttered in kisses swollen with love.
Yohan's appearance was unexpected. But it was welcomed.
Looking at the very first blurry image of their baby, a feeling of completion filled his heart. Without a second of hesitation, Kaiser made the decision. He dropped all existing plans and set off to build new ones. He had always been good at that. After all, nothing was impossible for him. Especially this time, he had his Yoichi.
Unable to hold back while watching Kaiser cuddling Yohan in their sleep, Isagi took a photo with his phone.
With a satisfied smile, he posted it on Instagram. The caption read: "Dreams come true."
Then, he joined his loves.
