Ahh! I'm sorry this is so short, I'm attempting to post this in prearranged chunks...
It was a long time after Katsutoshi's birth; Katsutoshi himself had a steady boyfriend, and Rika had just been married to Arrancar Arturo Plateado after releasing him for the second time.
Yumichika Ayasegawa stood in the bathroom looking over his yearly blood test results for the umpteenth time.
Based on what they said, he... no, but he hadn't felt... no Squad 4 members had said anything either, probably because they expected he already knew... but he didn't feel ANYTHING.
Oh well, he thought. I should leave before people assume I've collapsed in here.
Just one of the infirmary restrooms, Miki, an especially young Squad 4 member, asked, "Are you feeling all right, Ayasegawa-san?"
"I'm fine..."
He looked at the other side as he was walking.
'Estimated time elapsed: 1month 3wks 6days,' part of it read.
months? But nothing had come up...
'Gender: F.' Hm. Another girl? Yumichika smiled at that. He tucked the page away and sighed, staring down in thought.
After warning two low-ranking Eleven members to back off, that he was their superior, he had to admit that something had to be wrong - he couldn't think of any other explanation for why he hadn't had any symptoms.
Now he had to somehow get an ultrasound at the infirmary without Ikkaku noticing him...
Sneaking into the infirmary through the Squad 4 barracks, he found Hana on break.
"Yumichika? What are you doing?"
"Well... my bloodwork says that I'm about two months pregnant, but I didn't know until I saw it. I just want to be sure nothing's wrong." He hesitated. "Without Ikkaku seeing me."
"Makes sense. Come on."
