Broken Promise

The doctor prints some pictures of the baby and they leave the office. Once outside Tae stops her. "Y/n? I'd like to talk to you" he states, holding the pictures in his hand. She turns to him and waits, although she avoids his eyes. "I want you to move back into my apartment." Her eyes grow wide as she finally meets his dark eyes. "Not in the way you think. You can stay in the guest room. I just....I'm missing out on things and I don't want to miss anything else. If she moves I want to feel it. I want to see her making your belly move as she grows bigger. I want you near if something were to happen." She stands frozen, not sure what to say. "I-I don't think that's a good idea" she softly says. He then coldly states, "I'm not going to try to win you back or anything like that. I won't be putting any moves on you or doing any grand gestures Y/n, if that's what you're worried about. I just want to be near my daughter. Once she's born, you can go." His words are a hard slap to her face; and her heart. She's never seen him so cold before and she doesn't like it. But she knows she can't exactly refuse so she sighs and says, "fine. When?" "Today" he simply states. "I'll have some men go to your apartment to retrieve your belongings. You can come with me now." He turns to walk to his car when she stops him. "Now???" He turns to face her and gives a cold dead stare. "Yes. Now. I assume you drove, so you can follow me." He turns and gets into his car, leaving her stunned and annoyed. "It's going to be a long 20 weeks" she says to herself before climbing into her own car and heading toward Tae's apartment.

Stepping inside Taehyung's apartment made her nervous but nothing has changed. Literally nothing. Any changes she had made to the decor is all still there. She sees a few pictures of the two of them with family and their friends still sitting and hanging in various spots she had put them. It hurts to see it all. He acts very nonchalant when walking in and says, "you're things will be here within the next two hours so you can make the guest room comfortable for yourself. You can also make yourself at home here since it'll be your home for the next 20ish weeks. I'd like to sit now though and discuss a few things." She doesn't like how formal he's talking to her at all, but knows he's still hurt and bitter about all this. She takes a seat on the couch, him in an adjacent chair. "Now, there are a few requests I have. First, if you are feeling sick or just don't feel right in any way, I want to know immediately. Next, if the baby is moving and kicking, I want to know immediately and be given the opportunities to feel her. I don't care what time it is, I want to be informed immediately. We've also never discussed dating." Her eyes shoot up at this. He's dating??? "You are carrying my child and I don't want another man near my child. I will respect you, as the mother of my child, and not date or see anyone for the duration of your pregnancy as well. I thought to state about eating but I know you take good care of yourself so I don't think eating properly needs to be said. I also reserve the right to talk to your belly. I've read the baby can hear you. And....I think that's it. I mean it about the baby moving though. Whether I'm at work or in my bed, if she moves, I want to know immediately so I can try to feel her as much as possible." Y/n swallows it all and just nods. She can't stop the warmth she feels when hearing him call the baby "her." She doesn't like feeling anything good about this baby though and tries to push it away. She has to push it away and not feel, no matter how hard it is for her.

The next few weeks go by without incident. She does as he asks, letting him know when she feels the baby move. He's yet to feel her himself though. She doesn't call him at work though, nor does she wake him in the middle of the night to say "hey the baby kicked." They've done well with avoiding each other as well, only seeing each other in passing or when she tells him the baby is moving. She was sitting on the couch watching a drama one evening, Tae in his study, when she felt a hard kick from the baby. Harder than she'd ever felt before. "Tae!!" She screams, without thinking, and he quickly comes running in, half tripping when he steps out of his slipper. "What is it?! Are you ok???" He asks nervously and alarmed. She nods and says, "the baby kicked. Hard." He smiles wide and rushes next to her and sits. He places his hand on her belly and his eyes widen and sparkle. "I felt her!" He giggles. Y/n couldn't help but smile watching him engrossed in her belly. "Wow" he whispers. He looks up at her and asks politely, "can I talk to her?" Y/n gets nervous but nods. He crouches down in front of her and cups her belly with both hands, making her feel things she didn't want to. He brings his face close, his lips almost touching her, and begins to speak. "Hey little one. It's your daddy. I just felt you kick inside mommy for the first time and it was amazing! You're already so strong my little princess" he coos. Y/n's eyes begin to well up hearing him call her mommy and she has to look at the ceiling to not let them fall or him see her affected. "You need to stay nice and safe inside mommy until it's time to come out and meet us. Don't be too bad for mommy either, be a good girl in there. But keep kicking because daddy loves to feel you moving around." He leans forward and kisses her belly. She's taken aback and he realizes what he did and looks up. "I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking." She smiles shyly and shakes her head. "It's fine."

Another two months blow by and Y/n has a pretty big bump now. Taehyung can easily feel the baby move all the time now and he's all over her belly when he's home. The two have kind of found a comfortable medium with each other now. They are both careful but they've gotten more comfortable being around each other. "Tae!! She's kicking the shit out of me again"
Y/n yells from her bedroom. He comes running in and almost dives next to her. They both laugh as he places his hand on her belly and they both watch as her belly moves now when the baby kicks. He looks up at Y/n beaming. "She's getting so much stronger now" he coos. "I know, it hurts sometimes and I still have one more month. She's going to be a giant when I have her." Tae laughs and sighs, his heart warms a little hearing her finally call the baby "her." "I have a new request" he shyly says. "Hm?" He looks up at her and bites his lip. Y/n feels butterflies seeing him do that, him looking hella sexy. She hasn't had sex and this last trimester has her becoming crazy horny, like all the time. And, being in love with Tae still doesn't help. "Can I sing to her? I want her to be familiar with how I sing. Can I start singing to her every night?" God she loves this man still. She immediately nods without hesitation and he smiles wide. "Thank you" he says softly, then lays his head on her belly and starts to sing. She's always loved his voice, deep and smooth. She's always thought he could easily have made it as an idol. She finds herself getting drowsy from his sweet voice and falls asleep before she knows it.

Once his song is done he kisses Y/n's belly and looks up at her. Finding her asleep, he uses the opportunity to admire her again. He's still head over heels in love with her, even though she breaks his heart every day. Seeing her every day, living with her, is like a blessing and a curse for him. He pulls himself up so he's level with her and brushes some stray hairs from her face. He notices how her face has filled out some the past couple of months, knowing this is a part of pregnancy and will probably thin back out after the baby is born. She's still the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, even more so now that she's carrying his child. He then smiles sadly and softly says, "I still love you Y/n. So much. I miss you every day." He leans forward and very softly brushes his lips against hers. She stirs and he backs up as her eyes open and lock with his. Her eyes are wide, staring at the man she still loves with all her heart. Why is he so close to her face though? And god is he handsome....and so sexy. She feels her hormones rage at the sight of him so close to her and, without thinking, pulls him by his neck down to attach their lips.
