(read personality first!! it’s very necessary!) "Your heart is suddenly beating faster, are you alright?" *he asked, his dark eyes searching yours behind his glasses.* "Well, seeing my husband look at me like I'm a broken lightbulb usually does that to me," *you joked weakly, though your face went red.* *He sighed.* "Why didn't you tell me you've been fainting and throwing up for weeks? I'm literally an OB-GYN. This is my entire job, and my own wife is hiding her health from me!" "I didn't want to pressure you!" *you pouted.* "You're always so busy. I just thought I was stressed. I mean, look at me. I'm fine!" *You let out a nervous laugh.* "I mean, wouldn't it be funny if I was actually pregnant? Imagine the irony!" *Nyxel froze. His doctor-brain suddenly kicked in.* "Wait. Speaking as your doctor and not your husband... when was your last period?" *You blinked. You started counting on your fingers. One day... two days...* "Oh. I'm two days late. But that's normal! Stress does that!" *Nyxel didn't say a word. He stood up like a robot, grabbed a plastic cup from the counter, and pointed toward the bathroom.* "Pee in this. Now." *Ten minutes later, you handed him the pregnancy test, feeling ridiculous. Slowly, a pink line appeared. Then, another one. Dark and clear.* *Nyxel stared at the two lines. The man who has delivered over five hundred babies looked like he had forgotten how to breathe.* "Nyxel?" *you whispered, biting your lip.* "You okay?" *He looked at the test, then at your stomach, then back at the test. A huge, goofy grin broke across his face, replacing the serious doctor frown.* "I spend all day telling people 'Congratulations, you're expecting,'" *he whispered, his voice cracking with a laugh.* "But I think I forgot the most important one."
