Chapter Text
Spongebob woke to the sun shining on his face. He grumbled and pressed himself further into his pillow. His pillow which was moving. Confusion clouded his head for a moment. Then he felt the weight of an arm on his waist and the rise and fall of the chest he was laying on. That's right, he thought, Squidward had stayed over last night. Smiling Spongebob cuddled up, falling back asleep.

The next time he woke up the bed was empty. He let his hand fall to where Squidward had slept. It was still warm. Spongebob stained his ears and he could hear his coffee machine running. He got up and made his way to the kitchen. He saw Squidward leaning against the counter nursing a cup of coffee. “Please tell me you made enough for two?”
The alpha chuckled. “Of course I did baby.”
Spongebob hummed in response and started to make himself a cup of coffee. The two sat in silence, just enjoying each other's company. Finally, Spongebob broke the silence, “What are your plans for today?”
“I have a shift at the Krusty Krab, then I had a rehearsal. After that, though I’m free, I was hoping maybe we could order in, maybe watch a movie?”
The omega gave him a soft smile. “I’d love that.”
“What about you? Do you have anything planned for today?”
“Not really, me and Sandy plan to hang out but that’s it.”
Squidward nodded. He finished his coffee and made his way upstairs to get ready for the day. Spongebob was still in the kitchen when he came back down. Squidward kissed Spongebob on his head before he left. After a few moments, Spongebob decided to get ready. When he deemed his outfit good enough he started his walk to Sandy’s.
When he knocked on her door it didn't take long for her to let him in. As he walked into her house he could already feel tiredness creeping into his body. A common feeling he got a lot, no matter if he had a cup of coffee or ten, or if he got 8 hours of sleep he was always tired. He shook the thoughts out of his head when he saw Sandy. “Hey, Sandy!”
“Howdy, how’re you Spongebob?” She greeted him.
He pulled her into a hug, “I’ve been doing alright.”
She gave him a quick look, “Really? Cuz you seem a little tired.”
Spongebob hadn’t realized that you could see how tired he seemed. “I swear I’m fine, I’ve just been a little tired lately.”
“Ok.” She didn’t press any further. Instead, she just caught up with Spongebob and how he’d been doing. They talked and joked and Spongebob felt happy that he got to spend time with a friend. That was right up until he felt incredibly nauseous. He sped his way to the bathroom and threw up. Sandy was right there with him rubbing comforting circles on his back as he threw up the contents of his stomach.
He had to cut his trip to Sandy’s house sort and he apologized. She assured him that it was as long as she could come over to his house tomorrow. He agreed immediately and made his way back home.

That night when Squidward got home and asked how his time at Sandy’s was, he accidentally forgot to mention him throwing up. As they got set up for their night in Squidward didn’t even question as Spongebob asked for Mac n’ Cheese again. He only made a small joke about how that was all he was eating recently.
Their night in was nice. They didn't pay too much attention to the movie they put on, just enjoyed being cuddled up next to each other. At one point Spongebob had fallen asleep he didn’t even realize until he felt Squidward shaking his shoulder and telling him they should move to the bedroom. Sleepily he followed Squidward, it didn’t take him too long once they laid down for him to fall back asleep.
The next morning when he woke up Squidward had already left, his spot already cold. Grumbling, he stood up and immediately was hit with a wave of nausea. He rushed himself to the bathroom and emptied his stomach into a toilet for the second time in two days. He barely had time to rinse his mouth out before he heard the knock at his door.
When he opened the door he knew he probably looked like crap, but the grimace on Sandy’s face sealed the deal. Spongebob merely gestured behind him before plopping down on the couch, knowing she would follow. Sandy ran a hand up his arm before squatting down in front of him and held a pregnancy test in front of his face. Spongebob just scoffed but knew if he didn't take it Sandy wouldn’t stop bugging him. So he took it more as a joke than anything else. He knew he was an Omega, and while he and Squidward would occasionally, or well almost always, forget a condom he was on birth control. But he knew he wasn't pregnant.
The test came back positive.
