A Wonderful Surprise…

A ShunShiro Fan Fiction

It had been two days since Jushiro had first started being sick until his stomach was empty. What started as 'it's just a little food poisoning' had turned into him not eating and being sick constantly for a hour after he woke up - all this and Jushiro refusing to go to see Unohana Taichou left Shunsui very worried. Pulling white locks back from his lover's face with one hand and stoking his back gently with other Shunsui sighed. Enough was enough; today they go see Unohana about this sickness.

Passing Jushiro a cup of clean, warm water to rinse out his mouth, Shunsui lent against the bathroom door watching as Jushiro scrubbed the taste of acid from his mouth. "Today we are going to the 4th Division to see Unohana Taichou about this mystery illness, whether you want to or not."

Half choking on his toothbrush, Jushiro looked at him with pleading eyes. He really hated going to the 4th division. "Why? It's only a little bug. I'm sure it'll be gone in a day or two." He really hoped Shunsui was joking about going to see Unohana.

"I'm not taking no for an answer this time Jushi." He held firm, hating the harsh tone of his voice, but he wasn't going to let him wriggle his way out of it. Although Shunsui hated forcing Jushiro to go, it was the only way that worked. "So get dressed and we'll walk down there together other wise I'm picking you up as you are and taking you there by force."

Jushiro's eyes widened at the threat - the real threat - Shunsui was serious. He knew Shunsui was worried sick about him, and hated not being able to do anything for him. Looking up from the sink, he stared into his lover's eyes. Hurt and worry flashed across them with just a hint of the under laying guilt he felt from threatening Jushiro. He knew Shunsui hated doing this and slightly curious at his own condition (He cursed his curious mind) he reluctantly agreed to go.

After sitting on the cold, metal table in the treatment room for half an hour while Unohana Taichou pronged and poked at him, they were waiting for her to come back with the test results. Jushiro shifted nervously in his seat when a warm arm wrapped around him and pulled him into an embrace. "Jushi relax. Unohana will be back soon. It'll be okay, I promise. I'm sorry about earlier, it's just I was so worried…" Shunsui trailed off at the end, clutching Jushiro tighter.

Sensing Shunsui was as distressed as he was Jushiro sighed and curled into Shunsui's chest. "I know Shun. I'm sorry for being stubborn, I just hate coming here. I'm here way too often with my lungs; I don't want to find out another reason to be here."

Smiling, Shunsui kissed Jushiro's forehead. Just as he was about to reply Unohana Taichou burst into the room with a smile on her face. Both jumped at the surprise but were both calmed by seeing a very excited Retsu.

"Congratulations!" She squealed. She couldn't hold back her excitement. Two of her oldest and best friends were finally getting so wonderful news. "Jushiro Ukitake and Shunsui Kyoraku, I am happy to tell you that Jushiro's sickness is nothing serious." She heard both men let out a sighs of relief and smile at each other. "Jushiro's sickness was morning sickness…Which means your pregnant!" She beamed at them as she announced it.

That was when Shunsui blacked out…
