AN: Unlike some of my other stories, I'm hoping this one can be a straight forward pregnancy storyline. I'm starting to be scheduled less hours again so when that happens, I'll begin to write more. Thanks for your patience.

So Lucky To Have You

Chapter One – An Emerald-Eyed Ren

Kuon sighed with a smile as he and Kyoko caught sight of the press waiting at the arrivals gate. He and Kyoko had both taken a long trip to celebrate their first wedding anniversary and they had both attempted to make it sound as if they were returning to Japan one week later than they did.

Somehow their cover had been blown.

Kuon looked down before wrapping his arm around his wife. It had been shortly after Kyoko had told him that she had earned the part of Momiji that he had told her that he loved her. He hadn't meant to but along with her wild accusations of him loving somebody else and giving them a special ring that he didn't really remember, he had told her that he hadn't given the girl that he loved a White Day gift because he didn't want to trouble her with his dangerous feelings.

Instead of asking why his feelings were so dangerous, Kyoko had tried to lecture him about giving gifts and how it is only right to thank a girl in that way if they went out and did something for you and not just girls, anyone.

He had gotten frustrated about this and had kissed her and with her head in his hands, told her that he was in love with her and he was sick of hiding it from her.

Only a week later the two had gone on their first date and had managed, with Lory's help, to hide their relationship until November of that year. Another two years later and they had married one another with a grand, fairytale style ceremony.

That all led to this point with the long black haired Japanese actress and her affectionate American-Russian-Japanese blond husband. Both of them were well known models as well as at the top of the acting field. Many media outlets did ask why they hadn't gone to America yet, with their talents it was impossible to think that they couldn't find work but Kyoko had felt at home in Japan and Kuon had wanted to do whatever he could for his wife to be happy.

At this exact time it meant shielding her from the paparazzi.

"Do you think that there is anything that we could have done to stop it?" Kuon asked with a weak laugh as Kyoko looked up at her husband. She laughed before he directed her through the cameras and to one of Lory's men. "Hi, I take it that the president asked for you to meet us," he laughed softly and Kyoko looked around at the press.

"Kyoko, how was your vacation? Any funny stories you can tell us about Kuon?" one woman asked and Kyoko had to stop herself from saying too much, instead she just smiled.

"It was fun. We'll give more details later, we are on our way home," she said before bowing. As she stood up she felt a warm arm embracing her.

"We really will be able to give more details later. We're both quite tired so we thank you for our support and we will be able to tell you in future interviews. Thank you," the blond smiled before taking Kyoko's hand as they went off to the company car.

As they sat together, Kyoko started laughing before seeing Kuon just staring at the floor. She turned to him before laughing, "Come on, the new drama that you're working on won't be that bad," she winked at him playfully. "Don't tell me you've become a rare picky eater of an actor."

"It's not the role," Kuon attempted to explain, "I don't have any bad feeling about the role."

Kyoko smiled as she looked at him playfully, "Okay, I'm going to miss it but you do know that it's going to sound as if you think too highly of yourself if you tell people that you don't want to do a certain role because you don't want to go back to being a brunette."

Kuon looked at her with a laugh, "Come on, it's not that stupid a reason."

"To not push your career even more, yes it is," Kyoko winked at him as she let her fingers go through his blond hair. "You know how much I love the natural Kuon look but you were really excited about this role. Don't tell me that the director wanting to attract the fans of the Ren Tsuruga look isn't worth it."

"Okay, but if I start to act like him again," Kuon smiled and Kyoko laughed.

"I know that won't happen. Maybe you'll act a little bit more professional and a little bit more restrained but we both know that it's the Kuon side of you that's the most playful and energetic especially over these past two weeks," she smiled as Kuon looked at her and then kissed her head.

"You do understand that that can continue," he said playfully as Kyoko giggled. "I love you so much," he said as she blinked back at him, gazing into those emerald eyes.

"I know, I love you the same," she said as she looked out the window.

It was amazing to be in love with someone who loved you back. It was great to be in love with someone who you knew all of their faults and you still loved them with all of those things because they love you despite all your faults. It was perfect. This was going to be the second year of an amazing marriage that she hoped would never end.

…

…

Kyoko pulled her long black hair away from her face as her amber eyes increased in size. She froze as she looked at the stick in front of her. This was their third day back from the vacation and because she had been feeling ill, Kuon had asked her to go see a doctor but Kyoko had feelings that it was more than a bug. She had secretly bought a pregnancy test and as she held onto the stick, she saw that according to the device she was going to have a baby.

Her hands started shaking as she looked at it.

She hadn't wanted to have kids, that wouldn't have been a surprise to Kuon to hear. She hadn't felt that she would be a good mother and she wasn't so crazy about her own genes to pass them onto another lifeform. Unless this was a false positive then there would soon be a lifeform with her genes and then what kind of control did she have over the situation. She didn't want to see this small baby get hurt because she wasn't a good mother.

Then again, this little boy or girl had Kuon's DNA as well. They had the genes from her Prince Corn mixed in with them and whenever Kyoko thought of a tiny Corn she wanted to hug the child and shower them with so much love. Maybe that would make things okay. Maybe since this child was Kuon's as well, well she'd be okay.

Did she have to go to a doctor before she told him?

Kyoko heard the front door close and heard the cupboard where they kept their jackets and shoes being opened as Kuon came inside. She had been excited to see him and see the transformation to an emerald eyed Ren, but that was before she had her own news to share. She froze as her eyes darted to the bin.

As she saw him standing there with a weak smile and the all too familiar Tsuruga-shade of hair color, she felt as if she was getting kicked in the chest due to her nerves. She looked at him with all color draining from her face as her eyes widened and tears started to collect.

"It's really that bad?" Kuon had to ask as he was confused over why his wife was falling apart. This was near to how he looked when he had met her in Tokyo, but of course five-years older. He paused as Kyoko walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, crying into his chest as she buried her face in his shirt. Kuon wrapped her up closely.

"Hey, you said that it didn't ma-" he started before seeing the way in which she was crying, "I'm having a feeling that this isn't about the color of my hair," he said before wrapping her up tightly in his arms as he had done so many times in the past. He kissed the top of her head and ran his hand up and down her back. "Sssh, I'm here. I'm here for when you need to talk. For right now we can just be, take your time and when you're ready to talk, let me know," he tried to calm her lovingly.

After only a short time, Kyoko was able to speak and she looked up at the love of her life, "A baby," she whispered and Kuon looked at her. Kyoko felt tears in her eyes again as she whispered, "I'm…I'm pregnant."

Kyoko could see that Kuon was trying to keep his face neutral, his eyes flickered but he quickly hid his emotion from her and she wasn't sure why. He didn't look angry or upset about this but he wasn't laughing or running off to tell Kuu either. She looked at him again. Maybe he hadn't heard her.

"I'm pregnant," she said and he nodded with a blank expression.

"Kuon," Kyoko said as she shook, she looked into his eyes and tried to maintain eye contact, "I'm pregnant. I mean, I still need to go to the doctors about it but I'm pregnant," she held up the pregnancy test and she saw him smile as he looked at it, his eyes showing so much happiness but when he looked back at her it was a blank calmness.

"How do you feel about it?" Kuon asked her as he put a hand to her shoulder. "I know that you didn't want to have children. Are those still your thoughts?" he asked her and Kyoko looked at him. Was he trying to give her options even though he looked so happy about the possibility of a child. Was he trying to hold back on her account.

"Kuon?" Kyoko asked as he looked at her.

"Kyoko, as much as I'd like to say this is my decision, we've always worked as a team and if you…" he hung his head looking sad for a moment but then tried to smile through it. "if you really want to terminate the pregnancy because that's how you think that -"

"I'm happy to be having your child," Kyoko said as she put a hand to his chest and felt a literal explosion as he smiled so happily. It was as if his blond hair was shining despite it now being brown. She heard him crying happily before he picked her up and pressed her to his chest, kissing her numerous times over her face and cheeks. He held her close and she managed to look into the emerald eyes she adored so much.

"I'm so happy too," he said as he held her close, he set her on her feet and then wrapped her up in his chest. "I'm really really happy. Thank you," he told her, "I guess we should make a doctors appointment," he laughed as Kyoko felt her heart warm up from the strength of his laughter.

"You're not angry?" she asked and Kuon shook his head.

"There is nothing that could make me angry about this. We're going to be a little family and I…I never thought I'd be lucky enough that the woman that I love above all else would be having my baby. I never dreamed that I'd have a woman who would do that for me," Kuon told her and Kyoko smiled as she hugged him again.

Kuon always made her feel as if she was the lucky one.
