Chapter One:
Impossible is Proved Possible
The warm sunlight tickling Shindou Shuichi's face
woke him from a deep sleep. He slowly opened is violet eyes to
adjust to the brightness and looked around the room he was so
accustomed to seeing every morning. He took in a deep breath and
stretched, letting his breath out slowly, waking up his senses. He
felt stirring beside him and saw his lover, Yuki Eiri, shift
positions and too open his eyes.
"Morning, sunshine." Shuichi said to Yuki
in a soft whisper.
"Mornin'." Yuki answered, his voice
hoarse from sleep.
Shuichi swung his legs over the side of the bed and
let his feet rest of the cold floor. He stretched once again and
then stood, letting the sheets slip off his nude body, and grabbing
his bathrobe that was resting on the floor.
"You want me to make your coffee, Yuki?"
"Please."
Shuichi smiled at how pathetic Yuki was when he was
tired. He was definatly not a morning person. He hummed an unknown
tune and waltzed to the kitchen and began brewing Yuki's coffee. The
smell was invigorating, and it wasn't before long before Yuki drug
his feet into the kitchen, a pair of boxers half-hazardly put on.
Shuichi giggled and poured the steaming liquid into a cup and poured
a small amount of sugar and creamer into it.
Then it hit him... Shuichi was starving. He was
craving food. Normally, this wouldn't be of any significance, but
this time he was not craving his normal diet (sugar, sugar, and more
sugar), but rarities for him, such as pickles, hot dogs, fried
peanut butter and chocolate chip sandwiches, and bacon. He started
naming off his cravings to Yuki, asking him if they had any of the
items in stock.
"We got some pickles and hot dogs... Is
something wrong? You normally never eat those things...ever."
Shuichi shot to the refrigerator and pulled out the
whole jar of whole dill pickles and a pack of eight hot dogs. And,
since it caught his eye, he grabbed Yuki's leftover chicken stir fry
from the night before.
Yuki watched his lover as we went into the living
room with all of the food, and worry started to overcome him.
Is Shuichi sick? Usually he would never lay
hands on those foods...
He soon heard the familiar sound of anime emitting
from the television. Yuki sighed and decided to join his lover. He
grabbed his coffee and went into the living room, sitting down on
the couch and watched Shuichi engorge himself in the food. After a
few minutes, it started to make him sick.
"Shu...are you sure you are okay?"
"Yeah, just fine. I just had a sudden craving,
that's all."
Yuki shoved it from his mind, thinking that maybe
because Shuichi ate so much sugar, his body was tired of it and
wanted some real for a change.
---------Next Morning-----------
Yuki was awoken by the sound of retching coming
from the bathroom. He quickly shot out of bed and ran into the
bathroom where he saw Shuichi doubled over the toilet puking.
"Shuichi, you need to go to the doctor."
"No, I am fine. I am sure it's just all the
stuff I ate yesterday."
Yuki furrowed his eyebrows in disbelief, but he let
it drop because of the intent look on his lover's face. Shuichi
brushed his teeth and got ready for work, kissing Yuki goodbye
before he secluded himself in his study.
But, Yuki was unable to concentrate on his novel;
he was too busy worrying about his sick, little lover. He was sure
that it wasn't all that Shuichi ate the day before that made him
sick, otherwise all the sugar would have killed him. He searched
through the internet, looking at many different medical websites for
what was Shuichi's illness, but the only thing that popped up was
pregnancy.
Yuki laughed at himself. There was no way that
Shuichi could be pregnant. He's a guy. And, pregnant people have
frequent morning sickness and cravings. It has only been two days,
so there was nothing to worry about...
--------Two Weeks Later---------
There was no denying it: something was wrong with
Shuichi. So much, that even Shuichi couldn't deny it any longer.
But, Yuki now refrained from taking him to the doctor. Shuichi was
beginning to worry about Yuki, because he had become nervous and
would talk to himself at random moments, then laugh at himself, and
walk off into his study.
One afternoon, Shuichi couldn't take it anymore. He
was tired of the cravings and tired of getting sick every morning.
"Yuki, I really need to go the doctor."
"No, I'm sure you'll get over it soon."
"This is kind of like neglect, you know?"
Shuichi said, getting somewhat angry.
"How so?"
"Yuki, I'm puking my guts out every morning
and eating like a pig all day long... You can't deny that isn't
strange."
Yuki didn't answer. He looked around at everything
except Shuichi.
"Yuki, if you have any idea what's wrong with
me, I would like to know. I want a cure for it."
"You'll think I'm stupid if I tell you what I
am thinking." Yuki replied lightly.
"Try me."
Yuki looked into Shuichi's face. He shrugged and
warning him again. Again, Shuichi dared him, so he had no choice: he
had to tell Shuichi what he thought was wrong.
"I think you might be pregnant."
Much to his suprise, Shuichi didn't start laughing.
He started at him blankly for a moment, and then started looking
scared.
"Mom did say something about the doctors
saying..."
"The doctors saying what? Shuichi?!"
"Well, I overheard my mom talking to my dad
one day when I was younger about one time when I went for bloodwork
when I was younger. She said something about the doctors saying I
might be a... Oh, God, you are going to think I am an awful person
and leave me for it, but the doctors thought I might be a
hermaphrodite."
Yuki just stared blankly at Shuichi, who continued
in an embarrassed tone.
"She said that's why I have a female-like body
frame, but that didn't explain anything. She said that it might be
internally...that I might have some female organs. I just didn't
believe if it was true or not..."
Yuki was silent for a long time, just staring at
Shuichi blankly. Then, a determined look crossed his face.
"One way to find out."
"What?"
"We're going to the hospital."
"What?"
Yuki grabbed Shuichi gently by the arm and dragged
him outside to the car. Shuichi fought for freedom, but it didn't
work. He thought they would have to call in for an appointment, but
he guessed Yuki would use his charm and connections to get them in.
He was scared. If it was true that he was part
woman...and he really was pregnant... His biggest fear was that Yuki
would leave him. The other things could be forgiven, but he couldn't
live without Yuki.
On their way to the hospital he brought the subject
up with Yuki.
"Yuki..."
"Shu, I know what you want to ask me, and my
answer is I don't care if you are half woman or not. I don't care.
The point is, I want to know if you are pregnant or not."
"But, what if I am? Will you leave me?"
"Will I leave you? No, never. Why would you
ask that?"
"I don't know...just out of fear, I guess."
Yuki smiled gently at Shuichi, and placed one hand
on his lover's leg.
"I promise, I won't leave you."
This made Shuichi feel exceptionally better. Now,
the matter at hand was whether Shuichi really was a hermaphrodite
and whether he was or wasn't pregnant.
----At The Hospital----
Yuki and Shuichi waited in the hospital room after
the doctor's examination. They had been waiting at good hour or so,
and they were started to get anxious. Shuichi kept rubbing his belly
and blushing. Yuki kept pacing so much that he left foot tracks on
the tile floor. Finally, after an hour and fifteen minute wait, the
doctor came in and sat down on the small, rolling chair in the
middle of the room, holding test results in his hands.
"Well, I have to say..this is most uncommon,
but not unseen. There has only been two other cases like yours in
this hospital, Mr. Shindou."
Shuichi gulped and shifted on the exam table he was
sitting on. Yuki stood beside him and held his hand.
"The first examination came out positive that
you indeed do have many female organs, and the ones you have just
happen to be the ones that produce children. I can't really explain
to you how it happens, because, as you have said, you don't have a
monthly cycle like a woman normally would. But, somehow Mr. Yuki's
seed fertilized your egg, and you are pregnant."
Shuichi felt like fainting. He fell back onto the
exam table and sobbed tears he didn't know whether were happy,
relieved, scared, or disappointed. Yuki took him into his arms and
comforted him. The doctor stood and shook hands with Yuki.
"Well, I guess it's safe to say
congratulations, and I expect you two to be back here in a month so
I can see how well the development is coming along."
"Thank you, Doctor."
Yuki held onto Shuichi and led him out to the car.
Shuichi had stopped crying by then, but looked to be in a state of
shock. He held onto his stomach lightly and stared out the window.
"It'll be okay, Shuichi. We'll take care of
this baby, I promise. We're in this together."
Shuichi looked somewhat relieved, but still
shocked. He reached in his pocket and pulled out his cell phone.
"Hiro? This is Shuichi... Meet me back at my
apartment, okay? I have something important I need to tell you..."
-----Back At Yuki's Apartment-----
"Hiro...I'm pregnant."
"WHAT?! You're kidding?! That's impossible!"
"Obviously not. Because, Yuki and I are going
to have a baby."
"Oh, hell..."
Yuki left Shuichi and Hiro to their bickering, and
made his way to the bedroom. There he closed the door lightly and
collapsed on the bed; there he also let his frustration and tears
out.
Oh, God, this is really happening. I'm going to
be a father... I can't be a dad. I don't know anything about
parenthood. But, I can't let Shuichi down in a time like this...I
need Mika right about now.
He called his sister and told her the news. She was
fairly suprised, but was quickly overcome with glee.
"Oh, my little brother is finally settling
down!"
"Mika, don't praise me, right now... I need
help. I don't know the first thing of what I have to do."
"Oh, Yuki... I'll help all I can and tell you
all I know. First off, for these next nine months, Shuichi is going
to be moody and crave very strange things at all hours of the
night. Which means you are going to have to stay on your toes,
alright?"
"Uh-huh." Wow, I
am really, really scared now.
"And, try your best not to upset him. This is
a really emotional time, and hormones are going to go nuts inside of
Shuichi, so you have to go easy on him. No Mr. Meanie or anything
like that. No Mr. Sarcasm. And, last but not least... you are not
going to go completely sexless for nine months either.. You can
still do it, but take caution, okay?"
"Okay... Thanks, Mika... I'll call if I need
anything else."
"Okay. I'll be by tommorrow while Shuichi is
at work. You have a lot to plan for."
By now, Yuki was terrified.
Shuichi entered the bedroom a half hour later to
find Yuki lying on the bed with a far off look on his face.
"Are you sure we can handle this, Shuichi?"
Yuki asked quietly.
"Look, you aren't the one with something
growing inside you."
Yuki glared at him.
"Look..." Shuichi replied lightly, lying
beside Yuki and snuggling up to him. "We'll be fine. We have
support from our friends and we have each other... And, we have a
new life on the way." Shuichi put Yuki's hand on his belly.
"We'll make it."
Yuki smiled and kissed his lover, and the two laid
there for the rest of the afternoon until they fell asleep.
A/N: Alright, tell me if it sucked or not...I
thought it went by rather slow. But, I am going to do a month to
month...ya know, taking it one month at a time. So, I hope I don't
bore you all. Please review!
