A/N I dunno. Just popped into my head. For this story members of the Own can marry.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
"Neal?" Dom questioned his cousin who currently lay with his head in his hands apparently asleep. "Neal…" Dom repeated impatiently tapping his cousin's arm. Neal hadn't really been sleeping much since Yuki had their twins, a boy and a girl, named James and Genevieve. "Meathead!"
"Don't call me that." Neal mumbled through his arms.
"Come on, Meathead it's time to wake upppppppp!"
"What do you want?" Neal said pushing himself up and glaring sleepily at Dom.
"I need you to check on Kel."
"Why….?"
"She's sick, and as is typical of my darling wife, refusing to come see you."
"Oh…okay. Honestly, I don't understand how after all the years I've spent drumming into her thick skull that when you're sick you see a healer she continues to avoid coming to a healer when she's sick or injured for that matter. Seriously, what exactly about that seems difficult to grasp???"
"Uhm…I don't know. Why don't you ask Kel when you go and check on her?"
"Yeah, yeah. I get the point." Neal muttered.
"Bye-Bye, Meathead."
"Bye, Domitian." Neal answered with a smirk getting up from the table and heading upstairs to the rooms Kel and Dom shared at the palace. "Kel." Neal called knocking on the door. Neal received no response other then the sound of someone throwing up. "Kel?!" Neal called again, "Let me in, Dom sent me to see what's wrong."
"Nobody's home."
"Kel."
"I'm fine."
"Then you should have no problem opening the door."
"Go away."
"Do you want me to break the door down?" Neal inquired.
"I don't think the king would appreciate your vandalism of his palace." Neal sighed and his fingers lit up with a green glow, Neal grabbed the handle and the door unlocked. "Hey, Neal." Kel said backing slowly away from her angry looking friend, so that she was closer to the door.
"We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way."
"I really have to be going." Kel said backing out the door and running down the hallway. Neal hurriedly ran after his fleeing friend muttering darkly.
"Raoul, Alanna! Stop her!" Neal yelled when he saw them approaching from the direction Kel was headed. Raoul reached out and grabbed Kel by the arm as she attempted to get past them.
"What's going on?" Alanna asked.
"Kel here is sick and refusing to let me give her an exam."
"Kel!" Raoul scolded.
"Like you would have gone." Kel replied.
"She does have a point." Alanna added.
"Stop helping her corrupt my spotless reputation!" Raoul ordered his friend.
"Ha, spotless!" Alanna laughed.
"This is ridiculous, I'm leaving." Kel said trying to wrench her arm from Raoul's grasp.
"You're right, Kel, you're leaving all right, right to the infirmary."
"Neal…"
"I'm not arguing with you over this, you're going that's final." Neal said and then proceeded with the help of Raoul and Alanna to drag a protesting Kel down the hall to the infirmary. "Lay down." Neal commanded indicating to a bed. Raoul and Alanna were waiting outside bickering again. "Now." Neal added. Kel sighed and did as he ordered. "Now that wasn't so hard was it?" Neal said as his hand glowed green once again and he scanned Kel. He gasped in shock at what he found when he reached her stomach.
"What?!" Kel demanded.
"Uh…I'll be right back." Neal said nervously backing out of the room. "Raoul can you go get Dom? And Alanna can you go sit in there with Kel?"
"Sure." They answered together heading in opposite directions. "Oh and Neal, don't think you're going to get away with not telling me why you want me to distract Kel." Alanna told her former squire.
"I didn't say distract her I said sit with her."
"Potato, Pototo." Alanna said heading into the room Kel was in.
"Neal wants you." Raoul said coming up to where a distracted looking Dom was running drills with his squad.
"Is something wrong with Kel?? Did he check on her?! IS she okay???" Dom asked panicking.
"Come with me and we'll see, I'm sure she's fine though."
"Thanks, my lord."
"What's Neal hiding?" Kel asked as soon as Alanna came in.
"I don't know, but he has to tell you. He sent Raoul to get Dom, though." Alanna said thoughtfully.
"Why? I probably just have the flu."
"Well, you know our Neal he's just weird like that."
"He is, isn't he?"
"Yup." They both looked up as Neal came back in.
"Alanna I need to talk to Kel could you possibly leave?"
"How very rude, Nealen." Alanna said as she left the room.
"Do you want me to call Dom in?" Neal asked.
"Uhm…sure."
"Dom can you come in here?" Neal called sticking his head out the door. Dom was there before he finished his request. Dom sat down next to Kel's bed and grabbed her hand.
"Well..?" Kel inquired.
"Kel, I uh, found out what's wrong with you."
"And…?" Dom asked.
"Kel, you're um pregnant." Dom blinked at him and Kel stared open mouthed.
'I'm sorry, Neal, I could swear I heard you say, I'm pregnant."
"That's because I did."
"What?! There is no way…"
"There kind of is, Kel, remember when last month…"
"Too much information!" Neal shrieked. "You're about a month along." He added. "Kel, you do know that you're going to have to stay out of any approaching conflicts, right? No running off and attacking, Scanrans. You have to stay her, or you could go to Masbolle or Mindelan." Neal finished.
"What??? If you think for one second I am going to spend nine months lounging about you are very, very wrong." Kel shrieked.
"It's not actually optional." Neal remarked. "And besides if you think the King is going to let a pregnant knight gallivant after Scanrans you're the one who's very, very wrong."
"This is all your fault." Kel informed Dom. "I think I'm going to be sick." She added running into the bathroom with Dom following her, while Neal shook his head at the pair. Once Kel came back with Dom trailing after her Neal pronounced her well and ordered her to rest.
"Are you happy?" Dom asked his wife as they headed to the waiting area.
"I really am, but I'm mad that just because I'm pregnant I'm not going to be allowed to fight. Are you happy?"
"Yup." Dom answered with a grin.
"What happened?" Alanna demanded as soon as they reached the waiting area.
"You want to tell them?" Dom asked.
"I guess, According to Neal I'm well pregnant."
"Congratulations Kel, Dom." Raoul said giving his former squire a hug and his sergeant a hand shake.
"That's so awesome, Kel! Did you hit him?" Alanna asked.
"Um…no."
"I hit George, broke his nose, too."
"That's lovely, Alanna." Neal remarked walking over.
"It was funny, I saw it. You should have seen George's face." Raoul said laughing at the memory.
"Don't give her any ideas." Dom said.
"Haha." Kel and Alanna said together.
"Come on, Kel we should be headed back to out rooms, you heard, Meathead."
"How many times do I have to tell you to stop calling me that?" Neal demanded.
"About as many times as Kel will have to tell him to stop calling her Protector." Raoul said with a laugh, as Dom took Kel's hand and dragged her from the infirmary talking excitedly.
"He's going to drive her nuts." Raoul commented shaking his head.
"Much like Nealen, her drove Yuki insane."
"I resent that."
"You resemble that." Alanna corrected.
"I think we better go tell Yuki, because there is no way…"
"Meathead will be able to keep it a secret especially from her?" Dom finished.
"Exactly." Kel said pulling Dom toward the rooms Neal and Yuki shared. "Yuki?" Kel called knocking on the door. Her knock was answered with two screaming babies. Yuki opened the door a second later with two babies in her arms. "Want me to take one?" Kel asked.
"That'd be great. Thanks." Yuki said relieved handing Genevieve to her friend.
"We have news." Kel announced once she managed to calm the baby down.
"Well, what is it, tell me!"
"I wasn't feeling well, and Dom here decided to force me to the infirmary, or rather make Neal force me to the infirmary, and Yuki, I'm pregnant."
"That is amazing, Kel!" Yuki said carefully hugging her friend as they were both holding kids. "Are you excited?"
"Yeah, I can't wait!"
"Bye, Yuki, Kel and I have to be going." Dom said pulling his wife to her feet.
"But we just got here…"
"And Meathead says you have to rest."
"Bye, Yuki." Kel said giving in and hugging her friend, before giving Genevieve back.
"Bye, Kel. Bye, Dom." Yuki said.
"I don't know how she and Neal handle two infants at once." Kel remarked.
"At least we don't have that problem."
"Yup." Kel said with a smile as she and Dom entered their rooms and flopped down on their bed.
One week later…
"How's Kel?" Neal said sitting down next to his cousin.
"Just peachy. She spent half the morning throwing a fit because I told her that her glaive weighed more then she was supposed to lift. She threw a shoe at my head."
"That would explain the black eye."
"Ha-Ha, Meathead."
"It's just a mood wing. And besides you only have seven months and three weeks more to endure."
"Lucky me."
"Then the real fun starts, you get a fun screaming baby who cries all night."
"Not helping."
"When has Neal ever been helpful?" Alanna asked sitting down next to the cousins.
"I'm not sure." Dom said pretending to think. "There was that one time…no…"
"You two are real funny."
"We try." Alanna replied.
"Ha-ha." Neal muttered getting up and heading to the infirmary.
