Unexpected Emotions

Chapter I

Author's Note: As you all know, this is the sequel to Passionate Affections. This story is all angsty, but slightly different than PA. Most of you are probably unaware of Rinoa's problem (which I thought you would all figure out in the end, but I guess not). Anyway, I got my inspiration to write back! And I hope you all remember the last fic to know what's going to happen here.

~~(Quistis's POV)~~

Of all things to happen. No... not this. Please no. Now that Squall is happy with Seifer, this is the last pressure he needs in his life. In any case, I have to take her to the hospital, just to make sure. It can be just a small illness.

I bursted through the door and helplessly carried Rinoa in my arms and tried to make it to the hospital. At that moment, I didn't think about what was going to happen to Rinoa or what was her problem -- I just wanted her to get okay. It was also strange that for Rinoa's appereance, she sure is heavy.

I finally got to the hospital and I desperately asked Dr. Kadowaki for a room. Oddly, not much people were here, which is very fortunate.

I remained in the waiting room impatiently, walking back and forth. I tried to remain my calm and think of happier thoughts, but I couldn't. It's funny how I was calmer when Squall attempted suicide than now. Which reminds me, if Rinoa's... how will Squall take this? He's capable of just everything.

A few hours later, the doctor came out the door as he said nothing. On the contrary, I jumped out and begged Dr. Kadowaki for an answer.

Mood swing change for Kadowaki: He looked said when he came out that door, but then he looked cheery like he had some good news. I was a bit relieved.

"Well, what is it?" I asked.

With a huge smile on his face, Dr. Kadowaki replied, "I just have the most wonderful news."

"[sigh] Good. I was almost starting to think --" I was cut off by the doctor, when he said exactly the words I did not want to hear,

"Rinoa's going to have a baby."

I stood there shocked. Even for something I felt it was going to happen -- I still can't belive it was true. Then I ask myself again, how is Squall going to take this? I'm just afraid he isn't going to react in a good way. He'll .... do something drastic.
