Notes:

This might have minor/major mischaracterization, I don't read the lore so I apologize. Also sorry for spelling errors or if something doesn't make sense. More will be added to the fic and it's also my first so idk how to work this, bare with me. Any questions will be answered.

Chapter 1

"𝘍𝘶𝘤𝘬, Sev" Noli whined. But not of pleasure, but of great pain.

The start of Noli's troubles began to occur months ago, when Seven used to be around.

"Noli and 007n7, two of the most notorious exploiters in roblox. 𝘊𝘳𝘶𝘦𝘭 and 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨, they've caused damage to anything they touch and must pay for the disruption of peace all throughout roblox. The admins have been surging towards every corner of roblox to ban them. Lately the admins haven't been able to find activity from either one. Some may have suspected that they've gone into hiding, retired, or have taken the time to start planning something 𝘩𝘶𝘨𝘦, something 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳."

Noli heard echo through his head, the news of both his and 007n7's mysterious and instant disappearance made the headlines of many news stations. Noli felt overstimulated and sick he could barely keep up his pace of life.
"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck, Sev!" He'd been saying that all morning. He was still yet not over the things 007n7 had done to him, not over how much 𝘩𝘦 𝙗𝙪𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙙 him. Noli was always mad, he never truly went a day without feeling 𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙙 after he had taken the void star, but this time was different. This time he had reasons to feel the way he did. Noli moaned in pain, once again, 007n7 left him helpless and vulnerable. Noli gripped the bedsheets harder and tighter than he ever had compared to the time him and Seven had sex. His body feeling it's worst than it ever has before. Noli hyperventilated as he knew he was all alone in this predicament, nothing but problems would come of this, he was sure of it. Noli finally managed to press his body back up against the headboards, he caressed the underside of his belly. Noli wasn't ready for this baby and after the separation of him and Seven, he's left Seven out of the light. Noli always thought, "Why would he care?" Observing his partners behavior over the years he had concluded that Seven hated kids and found them to be loud, bacteria ridden, and least of all, a waste of time. Noli hadn't had any normal options, as an infamous exploiter he couldn't just walk anywhere ask 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 to help him. He truly was all alone now. He never thought this would become of his ex relationship, but it unfortunately has.

Chapter 2

Notes:

Tw: Attempted Abortion/C-section

Noli pressed head against the wooden headboard and dug his nails in, leaving behind marks. The pain persisted, he hated that his body barely showed any signs until he was on his third and last trimester. Noli decided he had enough of all this, and that it would 𝘢𝘭𝘭 end 𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁. After the pain settled down he went down into the kitchen and grabbed a knife. Noli pulled his hoodie over his stomach. He contemplated where the incision worked best and started slitting his stomach open. Noli clearly hadn't thought this through as he started bleeding, he tried going deeper but more and 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 blood kept gushing out. Noli yelled out from the pain but shoved his sleeve into his mouth so that the neighbors wouldn't hear and call the police. He wasn't even close to cutting out his womb and the baby, over the thick layers of his skin the knife barely even cut the surface. Noli felt lightheaded from the blood loss and pain from his "incisions." He covered his cut with his hoodies sleeve as he went down to the basement looking for bandages. He rapantly searched all the cabinets leaving behind a mess, he soon found the bandages and wrapped them over his abdomen. Noli fell onto the floor not making much impact, he could barely keep his eyes open and passed out.

Hours later, when Noli woke up he checked on his stomach. The bleeding pretty much stopped but the wound was still gaping, he ran his finger over it and flinched from the pain immediately pulling his hand away. Carefully holding his belly and getting back on his feet, he looked around the basement for anything to disinfect the wound and seal it shut. After a couple minutes his hand were occupied holding a bottle of rubbing alcohol and thread. He went back up to the kitchen and grabbed a rag. While running it under warm water he notice how his oversized hoodie and sleeve were stained with his blood. He didnt pay much mind now (although he'd regret it later), he had a bigger problems to worry about. Wiping off all the dried blood from his skin to the wound he used the rag, he proceeded to bite his sleeve in preparation for the next thing to do. He poured all the rubbing alcohol on the wound. It poured all over the wound and he bit down hard, the pain intensifying each second. His eyes forced shut and grip tightening on the counter. He realized he didnt have much time and went through either the last step, he looped the thread through the needle and started stitching his wound shut. When he finished he collapsed, his legs giving up and hunched over the cold, hard floor. He winced in pain.
"Seven...you piece of shit." He paused.
"I fucking hate you, and this kid!" He slammed his fist on the floor. Gently holding his belly, he got back up and walked upstairs into his room and laid back down in bed. That's all he could do, thats all he 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 like doing nowadays.

Chapter 3

Notes:

Hi

Each week Noli felt even more restless. He could barely sleep without being kicked in the stomach. He felt pain every waking hour and tired as well.

The news hasn't covered him or Seven recently. He thought, "Just maybe, finally, they got off our backs!" Although, he would soon come to find out that those words would haunt him.

Barely even a week later, the admins would find his current location and surround his house in which was hiding in. Noli held his breath and covered his mouth, almost in tears. His back pressed up against the door, knees curled up to his chest, and feeling fearful for himself once again.
"Come out before you make this worse than it already is," an admin said on the megaphone.
Noli, in his most vulnerable state and conditions, had limited options. Noli wouldn't be able to fight back, if he were taken into custody, he wouldn't be able to break out and such. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of flashing red and blue lights coming from his window, then he heard yelling.
"Come out with your hands up! If you do not cooperate we will open fire!!"
"Fuck..." Noli thought. Not only were the admins here for him but also the police, he couldn't stay anymore. He crawled to avoid being spotted from the windows and made his way down to the basement, with the void star he broke the wall, from there he escaped. He could barely run but still managed to get as far away as he could running off into the dark. Noli walked down the city streets, head down, hoodie on. He was terrified of being recognized, a few minutes after it started pouring, Noli was drenched. He walked into a convenience store as it was nearby and one of the few stores open late at night. He entered, a bell ringing sounded, which insinuated that someone has entered the store. He hid in one of the aisles, particularly the food aisle. Ever since he'd gotten pregnant he felt rather famished. Noli quickly dug into his pockets to gather how much money he had. It came out to be about 8$. When he first dug into his pockets he felt a rush of joy, feeling around, and finding some money, but actually pulling it out and seeing how much he had, his smile quickly faded away. He tried finding some snacks within his budget, after a long time of pondering he only grabbed two things a cup of noodles and beef jerky. He remembered the times him and Seven went out late at night, messing around, went on little "dates" feeding each other beef jerky, Seven loved beef jerky.
Seven loved...
Seven...
Noli quickly forced himself to snap out of it and made his way to the cashier, he placed his items down and looked up at the TV screen making noise.
"Admins just searched the house of world renowned exploiter, Noli, but is nowhere to be seen and-"
"A bit chaotic, huh?" The cashier said.
"Oh...uh yes..." Noli mumbled.
"Alright then, your total is 11.08$."
Noli froze, he felt embarrassed that he couldn't pay for it. "You know what? Im not even that hungry." Noli thought.
"No- it's alright..." His voice cracked and stepped away from the counter. The cashier saw his prominent belly then, he glanced at Noli's hands which held 8$. The cashier looked at him.
"You know what? Take it, free of charge." Noli looked surprised. "I can't do that." Noli said gently rather than in his usual harsh voice.
"It's alright, take it." The cashier insisted. Noli's hands trembled reaching for his food, "what if it's a trick, is he trying to decieve me? Frame me for theft?" Noli thought. He took his items, thanked the cashier, and walked out. He walked to the nearest park and sat down on the park benches. Only after the rain settled down he urgently opened the bag of beef jerky and ate. He cried, he hadn't seen anyone show him compassion in such a long time. Could this be apart of his everyday life if he didnt become an exploiter? Could he and Seven stayed together? Would Seven help him...with their baby?

Chapter 4

Noli sat on the park benches and pondered for a while. The admins kept finding him month after month, no shelter was secure enough. Noli isn't safe anywhere. Noli sighed and took a deep breath in, and out. He cupped his belly in his palms and spoke ever so gently.

"Alright kid, we're not safe anymore. I want to find your dad because he hasn't been caught since..."

Noli was caught off guard by his sudden burst of emotions, the night Noli took the voidstar, his hand caught fire and so did the rest of half his body. He begged and yelled at Seven for help. Noli only then understood he was abandoned after 007n7 used the c00lgui to teleport away from him rather than helping him.

"I don't want to feel like this..." Noli whispered

"Is it really my fault? Can I take the blame for it? He left me...to save himself..." He mumbled.

Noli then looked up at the dawning hour, he hadn't had any time to waste, he had to make a decision soon or get caught. That's how things 𝘢𝘳𝘦 now, thats how things have 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯. Noli pushed those thoughts aside, and spoke again.

"Okay, we're going to find your dad because the admins haven't once found him, 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘺, and 𝙬𝙚 need to hide. I hope wherever he is, is hidden and secure."

And with that, Noli got up to walk, who knows how long. Miles, days, weeks? He was going to walk until he found sanctuary with Seven.

Notes:

Apologies for the short chapter, more will come out I just have to edit the other chapters before they release

Chapter 5

Using the void star to track Seven down, it wasn't long before Noli, after 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘴 of hard work, to end up walking into the neighborhood that Seven lived in. Noli wasn't too sure where Seven's house was, he assumed that he would've used an alias so opening mailboxes and checking for mail with his name wouldn't help at all. So many houses, so many doors to knock on. Noli went door by door, some left unanswered, but no Seven to be found. He couldn't be impatient, he 𝘩𝘢𝘥 to keep looking even if that meant knocking at every door in the neighborhood or the next. After 20 minutes of knocking he was seriously starting to doubt if he were in the right place. After being turned away by another house owner he couldn't help but continue to feel lost, the next door he 𝙗𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙙 on, out of frustration. He felt embarrassed and almost turned away but then he heard the door click. 𝘊𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬. There it was again, the sound coming from the door. The door creaked open, a shadow cast over Noli as he looked at the person in shock. He froze, he stared back at the man looking at him. He stuttered and spoke.

"S- Seven? Seven!" He cried out

007n7 looked back at Noli who stood at his door, he was in shock as well. He hadn't seen him in what felt like forever. 007n7 analyzed the appearance of Noli, he looked distressed. Noli was visibly shaking and his clothes looked dirty and damaged, his hair not so much but still messy. Noli's hands were cut and calloused, the other hand, he wasn't sure 𝘩𝘰𝘸 to describe it so that he would be able to comprehend it. Lastly, he noticed how Noli was heavy with child. 007n7 was hesitant, seeing Noli in such conditions. Instinctively, he pulled him through the doorway and locked the door for security measures because he 𝘵𝘰𝘰, was on the lam. He turned to Noli.

"I thought you were 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙙..." 007n7 then embraced Noli, he held him tight. Tight enough to not let him go. 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧. 𝘼𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣. Noli hugged him back, Seven pulled back and touched their foreheads against each other, a gesture that was deeply interwoven with their bond. They stood in silence, 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 in each others presence. Their breaths became 𝘰𝘯𝘦, their hearts pounding, synchronized. How long they both yearned for each other, after a while they pulled away. Seven decided to cook some food for Noli while he took a shower upstairs and got changed into new clothes. Noli went downstairs to where Seven was and spoke with him.

"You...had some large clothes laying around...how 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵, huh?" Noli laughed awkwardly.

"If you're suspecting something about my dating life, just know I haven't came across anyone after 𝘺𝘰𝘶." Seven reassured him that he hadn't been with no one else.

Seven served him food, he pulled out a chair for Noli, he sat down. Seven knew that Noli could be insecure at times and all he needed was reassurance. Noli stuffed his mouth with Seven's cooking. Seven 𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗲𝗱 at Noli like the northern lights, falling in love with him, he wanted to kiss him and hold his hand, but Noli needs time to heal and adjust, Seven understood that, and he'd give Noli that and 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦. The day began to twilight, Seven helped Noli up the stairs carefully, so that he wouldn't hurt him or the baby. He took Noli to his room where he'd be sleeping, Seven planned to take over the couch to give Noli the space he needed. They both sat at the edge of the bed and locked their hands together, they sat in silence once more. Seven couldn't handle silence, theres something between them that needed to be discussed.

"Noli, we have to talk."
"We 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 to?"
"You only decided to find me now, 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵? Do you need help?"

Noli sat in silence, letting the words sink into his mind. Seven suspected that Noli only came for help and not for him, but it was the truth, he only sought out Seven for safety and survival. He answered.

"Yes...I'm in deep trouble Seven."

007n7 looked at Noli's prominent belly and tears welled up in his eyes, his breath hitched. He tugged his hand away from Noli's to cover his mouth shut. He thought, "Whose baby is this? Had Noli found someone else? Had he been abandoned again and came to me so that this kid would have a father?" He began to sob, he didn't mean to, not in front of Noli. Noli panicked and rubbed Seven's back.

"Whats wrong my dear?"
"Please don't call me that..." 007n7's voice trembled as he broke down.
"Seven, please! What's happening? 𝘐𝘮 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘥!"

Seven saw through his blurred sight, covered in tears, that Noli looked stressed. Even if that was someone else's kid he couldn't dare harm them or cause emotional stress to his lover, he calmed down and hid his face in his shirt for shame he felt for what he was going to ask.

"Is- is it mine...? Whose baby is that Noli!"
"Seven..." He grabbed a hold of Seven's hand.
"It's yours." Seven's eyes widen through the tears, he hugged Noli.
"Noli! Im sorry I didn't mean for this to happen! 𝘓𝘰𝘰𝘬, whether you choose to keep this baby after birth or give them away, I'll be right by your side supporting you no matter what, you got that!?"

Noli smiled. He had given it thought and was scared, 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘥 even, to have the baby and raise it in a world where they are 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺 being hunted down, but Noli also thought if he hadn't taken such a dark path, 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘩𝘦 want to be with Seven and raise a family, the choice was difficult, but it was 𝘩𝘪𝘴 to make. No one else's.

"Dear..." Noli whispered, Seven jerked his head.
"Im quite tired..."

Seven tended to Noli gently, setting up the bed neatly with extra pillows and tucking Noli in, just as Seven was about to leave Noli called out for him.

"Please don't leave me alone. 𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯..."

Seven felt bad, he realized he might've mentally scarred Noli or even traumatized him by making him take the void star and then leaving. With his love for Noli and by his request, he stuck by him. He got in the bed with Noli.

"Is everything good? You comfortable?"
"Seven, you worry too much."
"Noli please don't be ridiculous, you came to my house looking all worn out, who knows how long you've been walking here and you know that the admins are looking for you!!! Please, let me make it up to you and take care of you...the both of you." Seven kissed Noli on the cheek, he let Noli sleep, and soon after so did he.

Chapter 6

The next morning Noli woke up, he reached for Seven but he wasn't in bed anymore.
"Sev...?"
He saw Seven slowly come closer, Noli smiled but it faded away after a closer look, he jumped up from the bed.
"NO!!!"
His face scrunched up. He pushed the clone away. He cried, "Fuck, he left me again. He fucking left me!" Noli thought. As the emotionless clone came closer to embrace Noli he pushed it hard and the clone collapsed.
"YOU'RE NOT SEVEN! YOU WILL NEVER BE SEVEN!!"
As the clone tried to get back up and come closer he pushed it against the wall.
"GO AWAY!!!"
Noli cried and laid his body against the wall, sliding down to the floor, sinking his head into his knees. Seven opened the door hurriedly and picked up Noli.
"Noli are you okay!? What happened!!" He gently pulled him closer and hugged him. Noli sobbed into Seven's shoulder. Noli was able to distinguish Seven from a clone, he knew the person he was hugging was actually Seven, and thats all he needed right now. Seven patted Noli's back and pulled away from the hug. Resting his palms on Noli's shoulder he asked,
"Noli. What happened?"
"Your piece of shit...of a clone..."
Seven looked at the clone all beaten up and bruised, it was obviously causing Noli some discomfort. He pulled out his c00lgui to erase it from current existence.
"𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘱..." Noli whispered.
Seven looked back at Noli,
"What's wrong now?"
"Nothing..." Noli turned around to face his back to the c00lgui. Noli was scared that Seven would leave again using the c00lgui. Noli jumped as he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.
"You're jumpy." Seven said, concerned.
"No shit...sorry."
"Its alright."
They stood together, one behind the other. Awkward tension sprinkled around the atmosphere, they both had undiscussed business with each other. Noli folded and leaned his head on Seven's shoulder. Seven made him feel warm in a cold, dark world.
"They're still looking for me...?"
"Yes, Noli."
"I want to go out, it's not fair. This isn't fair. 𝙉𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜. Is. Fair." Noli looked at his belly, as much as he'd learn to accept it, a part of him hated it, why would he enjoy this? It was breaking him.
"Hey, calm down."
"Don't piss me off."
"How about I make you something?"
"That'd be...alright."
Seven smiled. Noli caught a glimpse of Seven's face and smiled too. Seven's smile was contagious, he could never have a serious face when Seven was around. He 𝘨𝘢𝘻𝘦𝘥 at Seven's eyes, it felt almost loving, but he'd never tell him.
"What would you like?"
"What can you make?"
"Anything."
"Whats 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨?"
"You haven't changed, Noli." He smiled
Noli's face flushed. He took some deep breaths and spoke.
"Do you think...you have mint tea?"
"Uhh- yeah? I'm pretty sure I still have some. Why? You feeling alright?"
"No..."
Seven looked at his food shelves and picked a packet. He filled up a tea kettle and started boiling water.
"Whats wrong?" Noli seemed confused why Seven was asking him that.
"You said you didn't feel well?"
"Oh...I just feel a little nauseous at times..." "Do you think it's because...?"
Noli nodded. Seven looked at him, then broke eye contact. He couldn't look at him without feeling guilty, all of Noli's problems root back to him. He ruined Noli's life and everything he could've been.
"Seven?"
He snapped out of if to accommodate to Noli.
"Yes?"
"Its okay. Its not a big deal."
"Noli how could you say that? "Not a big deal," and yet you're making life. "Not a big deal," but this baby, this baby is alive and they will grow up, change your life, 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴."
"I'm okay with that, I had nothing going for me."
"Noli! Stop saying that! You had so much going for you!"
"I didn't...I failed majority of my classes, I lost my scholarship. Seven, that offer you made me was the best thing to ever happen, even if I didn't want to drop out and exploit all of roblox with you what other choice did I have?"
"Noli? Are you serious...I could've helped you...you didn't have to hide this from me." "Seven, I need you to understand. I don't care anymore, that was then."
He grabs Seven's hand and holds it.
"𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 is now. And whatever happens, it's my choice, my decision. It's not your fault.
"And then? What did you decide before coming to me, Noli...don't lie to me. I know what that scar on your stomach is."
"If you know what it is what's the point of asking?"
"Noli..."
"Seven, I have chosen not only this life, but yours too." He held Seven's hand and kissed it. Seven could only cry for what is to come. Giving birth could potentially kill Noli, but it seems that he has already made peace with it. If Noli already has, then Seven has to as well. Seven hugged Noli tight.
"𝘉𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨."
"I will."
The tea kettle whistled loudly, Seven went to grab a mug for Noli. He poured the water in and opened the tea bag to let it sit. Seven's throat itched and hurt, he wanted to cry. He couldn't bare losing Noli again. Noli drank his tea while Seven watched.
"You want some?"
"No."
After a couple minutes he finished and went back upstairs, Seven followed. Seven sat up against the bed frame and made space in between his legs for Noli to lay on him, Noli got comfortable and rested his body against Seven's chest. Seven kissed Noli's shoulder, neck, and cheeks, leaving a few marks behind. "Moving fast?" He smiled. Noli waited for Seven to ask him the big question he's been waiting for.
"Whatever pace you want." Seven knew what Noli wanted from him, but he wanted Noli to ask him, not hint for it.
"Oh really? I'd say you're doing pretty well."
Seven smiled, he kept kissing Noli's neck, careful not to hurt him. Noli's body tensed up. Seven moved down to Noli's shoulder, gently biting it. Noli took deep breaths as he knew Seven could be stubborn at times and would stall.
"You won't even let me have this will you?" Noli asked. In reply to that Seven kissed his cheek again. Noli sighed. He just needed a little patience now, it was coming soon. Noli quickly grabbed Seven's hands and put them on his belly. Seven was confused until...

𝘏𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 𝘬𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘴

Seven looked at Noli who was smiling, he looked so happy. Seven smiled back and kissed him on the lips.
"Noli, you're amazing. You're body is amazing. It's still hard to believe, your body was able to conceive, and make this life. And also maintain it as well." He kissed Noli again. He kept his hands glued to Noli's stomach trying to feel any movement. He gave in.
"Noli, if I may, could I be your boyfriend?"
"Can you be more?" Noli smiled.
"What would you like me to be?" Seven asked.
"A father." Seven kissed Noli and replied.
"I always will."

Chapter 7: Seed

Notes:

In this AU Noli is Intersex with female genitalia and male appearance due to higher levels of testosterone, Noli chooses to identify as male and uses He/Him pronouns.

One day while Seven was out in the city buying some things, Noli kept watch of the house. Noli could not fathom why Seven was overly paranoid that something would happen to him, it had been almost 2 months since the admins found Noli's whereabouts and caused him to find sanctuary. There was no reason why they should keep looking, wherever the admins went, it remained as a "dead end." Noli put down the rifle Seven taught him how to use in case of emergencies. Noli felt fatigued and called up Seven. Before leaving, Seven told him to call if he couldn't keep watch anymore so that he could use his c00lgui to watch the house.
"Seven?"
"Yes, Noli?"
"I'm tired, I need to sleep."
"Rest easy baby."
Seven hung up the phone and started programming angles of his house to watch live. Noli went up the stairs and plopped himself onto the bed, according to Seven he could be "due at any day" now. He patted his stomach.
"Are you ready? Cause I am." Noli only softened up and started caring for his baby when he decided to seek Seven out for sanctuary, he only then forgave Seven for what happened back then. Noli only ever hated his baby because it belonged to a 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘰𝘳, a man whom had abandoned him, that man was 007n7. Not 𝘚𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯, not his Seven. Now Noli loves his baby for being theirs. Noli hugged his belly, oh how excited he was to have this kid.

Noli tried to sleep, but the baby he bore persisted and kept him awake. After a while he got up and took a walk outside. He looked at the beautiful orchids Seven started growing only when Noli came back. The day Noli walked back into his life, the grass was hanging by a thread and the pomegranate tree was in a state of gloom just as Seven used to be. Walking back into Seven's life was intimidating at first, judging by the conditions of his house and dead lawn. Noli admired the orchids, Seven grew these orchids by himself and felt proud of himself for doing so. The pomegranate tree, he couldn't tend to it himself, Noli had helped nuture and grew it alongside Seven. It was now a beautiful tall, strong tree, just as their relationship was to be established. Noli stayed and pondered in the garden, he couldn't wait to visit this garden with his baby cradled in his arms. "𝙄'𝙢 𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙚...?" Noli knew how special this conception and baby was to Seven. Noli grazed his hand across his belly, he couldn't 𝖽𝖺𝗋𝖾 to see Seven so hurt if something happened to their baby.

Noli reminisced their senior year of highschool where Noli and Seven were bonded together, they shared an apartment room and continously slept together. They were always vulnerable to each other in that room. Whenever Noli got his period Seven would comfort and cuddle with him. When Seven had bad days whether if it was a bad grade to a fight he'd involve himself into, Noli was always there to patch him up and be Seven's shoulder to cry on. He remembered this particular day where the two had woken up but decided to stay in, skip school to just hang out and watch TV.

"𝙞'𝙢 𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙚."

Suddenly Noli was back in college. 𝘚𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘕𝘰𝘭𝘪 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳, 𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘦𝘺𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘵. All they could do was stare in silence. They both read the other's facial expressions and emotions. Seven didn't seem too bothered, it didn't even look like he cared at all. Noli looked relieved, confused, and worried all at once. Noli froze while Seven waited, thinking he'd get more from him.
"How do 𝘺𝘰𝘶 know that?"
"They told me at my check up..."
"Oh thank goodness!"
Noli had dropped down to the floor and started laughing.
"Fuck! You 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘥 me...I'm late I- I just- 𝘞𝘰𝘸!"
Noli couldn't contain himself, they had sex a couple of months back and Seven failed to pull out in time. Noli had been stressing that he had gotten pregnant, he now realized that it was 𝗃𝗎𝗌𝗍 immense stress from the pregnancy scare, missing his periods, and his studies 𝗍𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝖼𝖺𝗎𝗌𝖾𝖽 𝗁𝗂𝗆 𝗍𝗈 𝗆𝗂𝗌𝗌 𝗁𝗂𝗌 𝖼𝗒𝖼𝗅𝖾𝗌.
"You don't seem too...𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸?"
"Yeah...I don't really care. I only wanted to tell you because...well- 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩."
"Sooo..."
Seven helped Noli up from the ground and pulled him into an embrace.
"It's okay, there's no chance. I'm sorry I stressed you out like that.
Noli hugged him back and fit his face into the crook of Seven's neck.
"Thank you, I feel better now. Knowing that it's not possible."

Noli looked down at the roots of the tree, then to his belly. Back then, they were both okay that Seven would never be able to have kids, it gave them more freedom and less worries. But now it was just their 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘵 nightmare, the baby Noli bears may be the only child they 𝗐𝗂𝗅𝗅 𝖾𝗏𝖾𝗋 have, and if he loses it there's no guarantee that Seven will be able to produce another baby. This baby was a rare chance and a miracle, and they needed to protect this 𝖺𝗍 𝖺𝗅𝗅 𝖼𝗈𝗌𝗍𝗌.

Side Note:
I'm not sure if everyone does but just assume time passes by with each chapter it is implied.

Noli walked around the house anxiously, he held his belly with his two arms, moaning under his breath. Noli felt excessive cramping and would later realize, contractions from his intimate area. He kept quiet about the pain to not worry Seven whom sat at the dinner table making his morning coffee. All morning Noli tried to distract himself from the pangs of reoccurring pain. Noli walked back up the stairs and into the room to lay down and relax himself. As he walked up the stairs, turned the door knob and walked inside the room, he suddenly felt a release of his bodily fluids. It felt relieving coming out but he looked down and panicked.
"Oh shit... SEVEN!!!" Noli yelled.
Seven came rushing up the stairs and saw what happened.
"Noli, lay down!" He instructed.
Seven took off some of Noli's clothes to help make things easier. He checked to see how dilated Noli was.
"Okay, baby, its not time yet but when I say push you push!"
"Seven? How are you sure!? You dropped out of school!!"
"Trust me, I'll help you. No matter what."
Noli bit his lip, he wasn't too sure but he knew he could trust Seven.
"When will I be ready?" He asked worriedly.
"I don't know, I'll be able to tell you if you are though. But you're not yet."
Noli grasped Seven's hand and refused to let go.
"It hurts..."
"I know baby...I know" He kissed Noli's head.
Meanwhile they waited for Noli to dilate more, Seven tried relaxing him by holding Noli and rubbing his back.
30 minutes later, Seven checked Noli.
"You're ready, but do you feel ready?"
Noli nodded, the pain was excruciating and like nothing he's ever felt before.
"Start pushing!" Noli started pushing, he could feel himself tearing and was intimidated badly and stopped pushing.
"Noli, you need to push!"
"I can't..."
Seven saw a puddle of Noli's blood started to come out of him.
"Oh shit..."
He got up and ran out of the room. Noli yelled out for Seven not to leave him, not again. Seven ran out and bursted into his neighbors house. He dug his fingers into his neighbor by the arm and dragged them to his house, and up the stairs where Noli was.
"Seven what the hell are you- holy shit" They were shocked seeing the sight in front of them, one of the most wanted exploiters on the floor trying to give birth.
"Help him!!"
"I'm not helping a-"
Seven pointed at gun at them.
"You're going to help him"
The neighbor followed through with the command, they knelt down and started helping him. Seven started a timer on his c00lgui.
"Noli, give me a big push?" They noticed Noli was struggling.
"Hold his hand for me." Seven held Noli's hand gently.
Noli started pushing again, the neighbor helping and encouraging him to keep pushing. The doctor carefully grabbed the baby's head, it started crying. Noli instinctively looked up to see what was happening.
"Is that..."
"Keep pushing! Get me a towel!" Seven stood up and got his neighbor a towel. The neighbor layed it down between Noli's legs, where they'd put the baby down and wrap it in when it fully arrives. Noli felt faint as the process continued on for 3 more hours, he was tired and tried to keep up.
"One more push!"
Noli took a deep breath and pushed as hard as he could. There, slid out the baby's body. The neighbor wrapped them in. They looked at Seven, gesturing him to cut the umbilical cord. Seven grabbed some scissors nearby and cut it.
"Congratulations, its a boy..." The neighbor gave Noli his baby. Noli felt emotional finally seeing his baby for the first time. He started crying, Seven wiped away his tears and kissed Noli and their newborn.
"Noli, you still have to push out your placenta."
"Huh?"
"Just push..." the neighborhood rolled their eyes. While Seven went to the bathroom to properly wash their newborn baby, the neighbor stayed with Noli.
"Are you struggling?"
"Can't you see..."
The neighbor wanted Noli to place his mind elsewhere, then maybe that would make it easier. They glanced at Noli and noticed he seemed fairly youthful.
"Noli, you look very young. How old are you?"
Noli looked uncomfortable, he bit his lip again.
"I'm twenty..."
The neighbor looked at him, shocked.
"And having a baby?! You're too young..."
Noli peeled the wood off the floor, struggling to keep pushing. The neighbor noticed, "Did you want this? A baby at this age?"
Noli took his words as offense. "Shut up..."
"Noli I can't help you if you keep this attitude up, was this baby planned?" Noli shook his head. Noli kept struggling.
"Come on, you're bleeding, just this last thing and that's it."
"Accident." Noli responded.
"Figured," the neighbor said under their breath, barely audible. Noli didn't hear.
The neighbor finally got the placenta out. Seven came back into the room holding their baby, he placed him in Noli's arm and dragged the neighbor outside the room. He kicked him to the floor and pulled out his gun, aiming it to his neighbors head. He couldn't let his neighbor free knowing that he could ruin everything and tell them off. He held his finger over the trigger, shaking. Seven heard his baby's cries from the room upstairs. He couldn't hurt anyone and have them look for him at a time like this, not while he's just became a father and now that Noli is still vulnerable with their newborn. Seven threw the gun across the room and picked his neighbor up. He pulled up the timer on his c00lgui.
"What the hell are you doing!"
He coded a program which would align to exact moment they saw Noli that would permanently erase the memory of everything that happened from that moment and so on.
"I'm sorry"
He launched the program. The neighbor looked around.
"Why am I in your house?"
"You were drinking?"
"Ah! Why didn't you stop me? I have work in the morning! In the hospital! I can't be hungover!!" The neighbor left Seven's house. Seven locked the door. He went back up the room and sat next to Noli. He was crying, Seven panicked.
"Baby! Are you okay? Is the baby okay?"
Noli nodded. He was just so happy and excited he started crying. Seven felt giddy, looking at the family they both created together.
"What should we name him?" Noli asked.
Seven started thinking. He looked at his baby, he noticed he had four fingers...just like Noli.
"Look." He showed Noli's their baby's fingers. Seven kissed his baby's hand then picked up Noli's to do the same. Noli smiled, his baby was exactly a copy of neither of them so he was happy there was at least an identifiable trait of his. Their baby was a burgundy color skin tone with horns and a tail.
"He doesn't look like us, does he?" Seven questioned.
"Maybe...the skin because of me and...effects from your c00lgui? The tail...hmm...my mother and I had one. Seven, your father had horns. He doesn't look like us, but he embodies us in a way. He embodies our physical traits." Noli kissed his baby.
"He's pretty big isn't he? Babies normally aren't this large." It was true, their baby came out larger and heavier than regular babies.
"Its alright, there's more of him to love!" Noli was practically smothering this baby which had no knowledge of anything. Seven was a little (disturbed) because of how big their baby was, he was worried that he might've caused internal damage to Noli. How bad did Noli truly have it?
"Seven! Don't think about it too much..." He placed the baby in Sevens arms. Sevens eyes lit up and he kissed his baby's head.
"You're actually here...you're real..."
Seven's eyes watered. He was shocked that he actually produced this baby, he never thought he'd be able to have one but the baby in his arms just proved him wrong even further.

Notes:

Extra info:
Noli used to have a tail but an incident with the admins had costed him. Noli was just reactive with his tail and was outwardly saddened when it was gone. That wasn't just a tail but his limb and a receptor for his emotions.
