He nodded, and then slowly and lightly embraced her.
She leaned into his touch, shaking her head and closing her eyes. “I- I just don’t want to disappoint him. Don’t want to disappoint anyone…”

He whined, and moved to hug her before realizing what he was and stopped. "... M'so sorry Ronnie..."
She glanced up at him and shrugged. “You… Can hug me. I can feel it, remember?”
'M tired...
“Y-You would?” She buries her face against his shoulder, arms wrapped around him. Ronnie’s still too ashamed, still too shy to meet his eyes. Her voice is muffled slightly by his skin. “You’re not… You’re not disappointed? I thought you’d… I don’t know. I didn’t know how you’d react and I didn’t mean for you to find out like that but-” She’s rambling now, words just sort of spilling out.
“I think…if we ever were able to have a child, I don’t think I would want to have one ourselves, I might pass on some undesirable things.” He murmurs, cheeks red with embarrassment. “I don’t know, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to have a child at all. I’d love that, you’d be such a wonderful mother as well.” He kisses her forehead then.
“I’m so glad you’re not upset,” Ronnie murmurs, glancing up at him finally with wide eyes. She keeps her arms wrapped around him, biting down on her bottom lip. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. I’d love… I’d love to have kids someday, and… You’d be a great dad, too.”
David kisses her cheek and then her lips softly. “T-thank you.” He says softly, looking at her with crimson eyes. “And it’s okay, we’ve…never had the chance to talk about something like this before, I’m glad I found out now.”
Ronnie blushes and closes her eyes, taking a deep breath to calm herself down. She’s just realized she’s started shaking very slightly. “I- I’m glad I told you, I… I should’ve told you before.” Why was she so stupid? She mentally smacks herself for it. “Are you sure it’s okay?”
“Of course I am.” He stares at her, pushing her hair back and staring at her with concern. “Veronica, what’s wrong?” The shaking is apparent now and he’s worried about her. “Like I said, we didn’t have the chance to talk about it before, it’s fine.”
“I was just worried I- I’d lose you… A-A lot of people, that’s a deal breaker.” She swallows thickly and closes her eyes tight. “M’fine, I swear.” She’s taking deep breaths now, trying to calm herself down. Of course this would happen…
“…Remember, I was in a relationship with a man before this Ronnie, we needed to adopt as well.” He reminds her softly. “I wouldn’t leave you over something like that, I don’t want to leave you for anything…”
“Thank you…” Ronnie looks at him with eyes glazed over with tears, but she blinks them back easily. “I- I just… worry. A lot.” She moves closer to him, tucking her head under his chin. “Thank you for… for being so understanding.”
"... What was it about?"
“About… About how I can’t have kids.”

"Been really bored without ya."
“Ah… Sorry!” She laughs and pokes his arm. “I just had a bit of a bad conversation. Well, not bad, but…” Ronnie shrugs.

He tilted his head. "I don't think it matters how I've been... you alright? What happened?"
“Just… stuff.” She wiped at her eyes. “No, really, how’ve you been?”
He beamed. "Hey! I almost thought you'da forgotten about me."
“No, no! Things have just been sort of… busy, lately.” She smiled, her eyes a little red and puffy. She looked like she’d been crying. “It’s alright, though… How’ve you been?”

"... Ronnie?"
“Scott!”

“Because I know you’ll just snuggle me until I fall asleep too,” she says with a soft laugh. Ronnie makes small, happy noises when his fingers massage his scalp, her eyes still closed. “Mm, we should get food…”
“We should doesn’t mean we have to.” He laughs throatily, voice deep with sleep. His eyes flash a dull crimson then and he kisses her cheek. “…Veronica…would you ever want me…to be human…?”
Ronnie tilts her head a little, furrowing her brow. “I… I don’t think it really matters what you are, to be honest,” she murmurs, kissing his nose. “Why do you ask? I mean, you’re not all that inhuman anyways.”
“I know, I was…just curious.” He mumbles. “That’s all…” His arms slip down her back then and settle on the small of it, “s’all…”
“You sure?” She sighs softly, nuzzling his neck. “You just seem… Worried about it.” Ronnie kisses the shell of his ear and furrows her brow. Was he worried about kids…? “I- I can’t have kids anyways,” she blurts out suddenly.
David’s awake at that, eyes wide and mouth falling open. “T-t-th-that wasn’t!” He flushes heavily then. “N-no, it’s just, I don’t remember my origin and it’d be nice to find out what I was before being a demon because the only memories I do have are from my v-vessel.” He covers his face then before staring at Ronnie. “Why can’t you have children?”
Ronnie feels her cheeks burn right red and she looks down, avoiding his gaze. “O-oh.” Her voice is quiet and she feels ashamed that she can’t give him a good and proper family. Can’t have one with him. “Medically, I can’t. They ran some tests once and… It turns out I’m not fertile. I couldn’t get pregnant, even if I wanted to.”
“…I’m sorry.” He murmurs and reaches out to bring her into a tight hug. David doesn’t know what to say, he’s literally shocked into silence for the most part. “…If you ever…wanted, we could adopt, I’d love to adopt.”
“Y-You would?” She buries her face against his shoulder, arms wrapped around him. Ronnie’s still too ashamed, still too shy to meet his eyes. Her voice is muffled slightly by his skin. “You’re not… You’re not disappointed? I thought you’d… I don’t know.

Ronnie smiles to herself and peeks her head out from the closet in the bedroom. “You finally awake, babydoll?” She’s her perky self as always, eyes alight. “I wondered if you’d ever wake up! Wasn’t sure if I should wake ya’ myself or not…”
“Mm…” David rubs at his eyes. “I think I over slept, so that’s why I’m so worn out, my apologies.” He murmurs weakly, stretching his inked arms over his head for a moment. “You…look awake.”
“Yeah, it’s a good day! Good energies… Spring an’ all that!” Ronnie grins and ducks back into the closet before walking over to him, now donning one of her adorable hats. She plants a gentle kiss on his cheek with a smile. “So how’d you sleep, love?”
“Very well.” He grabs her wrist gently and leans against her arm, trying to wake himself up and failing miserably. “You? I hope the birds didn’t wake you up to early.” He has a shaded memory of Ronnie insisting they sleep with the windows open the previous night.
“No, no, I’m just an early riser.” She smiles at him and laughs softly, nuzzling the top of his head. “I slept well… You’re a really nice snuggler.” Ronnie hums happily, lacing her fingers together with his. “C’mon, why don’t I make you some food to wake you up?”
David pulls Ronnie onto the bed though, still half asleep, lips brushing over her neck as he shook his head weakly. “Not yet.” He whispers. “Just five more minutes, please?”
Ronnie’s cheeks flush faintly and she lets out a soft noise, smiling to herself. “Okay, okay… Five more minutes…” She bites her bottom lip and rolls over so that she’s on top of him, head resting on his chest.
David loops his arms around her, closing his eyes and shifting so he’s pressed back into his original spot on the bed. “Thank you.” He whispers, cracking open his green eyes at her for a moment, smiling slowly.
Ronnie presses her lips to his then, eyes fluttering closed. “Mn, of course.” She smiles and nuzzles his neck, humming softly. “But five more minutes, and they you’re getting up, sleepy head.”
“Why do I not believe that.” He says against her shoulder, lashes fluttering closed again. He curls his fingers into her hair, head lolling to the side as he eases back into a half kind of sleep, smiling crookedly as he scratched her scalp.
“Because I know you’ll just snuggle me until I fall asleep too,” she says with a soft laugh. Ronnie makes small, happy noises when his fingers massage his scalp, her eyes still closed. “Mm, we should get food…”
