Hizuri Magic
Chapter 1
She Has That Glow
It had to be the strangest thing Kuon had ever witnessed. Although there were a lot of strange things that had become commonplace in his life since he had even met Kyoko, but this? He chuckled. This was something he knew about his wife before even she did and it tickled him pink.
A wide smile crept across his lips in the darkness of their bedroom as his hand gently caressed his beautiful wife's tiny glowing belly. A bright glow that overshadowed her own. She murmured in her sleep and rolled over. He placed a sweet kiss on her sleeping face and attempted to go back to sleep after carefully wrapping her in his arms and snuggling into her.
It was now morning and his body and mind were still battling against sleep. There was no way he would be able to rest until he told her what he had witnessed and confirmed his absolute knowledge with the doctor. Then he would need to tell his parents, her parents, all of their friends and the world. His excitement was bubbling over. He was going to be a father! Of that, he was certain.
He quickly, quietly and as stealthily as he could, exited their bed and made his way to the kitchen. His fairy princess deserved her breakfast in bed. He heated the water for her tea and popped a pod in for his coffee into the coffee maker, then to the best of his ability started on the main course, scrambled eggs and toast. "Hmm. It should be okay." He pondered, still not able to wipe the smile from his face.
He finally plated the breakfast. Added the cutlery onto the tray and poured two glasses of orange juice. "Something's missing." He looked up and spied the flowers that Kyoko had arranged in a crystal vase the evening before. He pulled the most perfect little daisy from it and placed it into a little juice glass filled with water and neatly arranged its position on the tray. "Perfect."
He quietly and proudly entered their bedroom and sat the tray on the bedside table and gently kneeled in and kissed her forehead. "Princess... It's morning." He whispered softly. "Time to wake up."
"Hmm.." She moaned softly as her eyes fluttered open to meet her husband's loving gaze.
"Morning Love." Kuon gave her a quick little peck on her plump lips.
She sighed in contentment. "Morning Kuon..." She greeted with a sleepy smile.
"I made breakfast." He told her as he presented the small repast to her.
Her eyes popped wide open, and she sat up. "You made breakfast?" She tried to hide the worry.
He chuckled. "Come on Babe. I'm not that incompetent in the kitchen. I can manage eggs and toast, you know that." He retorted in a mock, hurt tone.
She giggled. "I know. I know, Dear." She conceded as he placed the tray over her lap and sat next to her. "It does smell really good and for some reason, I am super hungry this morning." She commented.
He nodded and gave her a knowing smirk as she guzzled down half of her orange juice and started to scarf down her toast that she had slathered in an overabundance of butter and heavily coated with honey.
"Oh my god Kuon! That was delicious! What did you do to it?" She gushed as she finished the rest of her orange juice.
"Well... I just made it like I normally do." He commented after taking the tray away and rising to put it back in the kitchen.
Kyoko stretched and noticed that she felt sore all over. She groaned as she forced herself out of bed and made her way to the bathroom and turned on the shower. "Hic..." A small bubble escaped her lips. "Hic..." And another. "Hic..." And another. "Kuon!?" She called out in a worried voice.
By the time he had entered the bathroom to find out what was distressing his beautiful wife, there were a multitude of little bubbles floating about the room. He stared at the spectacle in wonder, then snickered. "What is going on?"
"I don't know..." She whined. "It's not funny Kuon."
He took the distressed little fairy in his arms and kissed her crown. "It's alright Princess." He told her as he rubbed soothing circles on her back. "I think I know what it is." He told her remembering what he had witnessed that made him so insanely happy.
She felt his chuckle rumble in his chest and then he told her what he saw. "I think you should go see the doctor, just to make sure."
She looked up at him in disbelief. "Kuon... That can't be. I'm on the pill." She argued.
He gave her one of his famous NG sighs. "Kyoko... Please? Trust me on this. Just make the appointment, and you'll see I'm right about this."
"Haaahhh..." She groaned dramatically. "Fine..."
"Great!" He exclaimed and kissed her cheek. "You let Alyssa know, and I'll call Yuki. Meanwhile, stop stressing over it."
She nodded stiffly. She was a little worried about what else was in store for them, if the bubbles were any indication.
This might be a little difficult. Thought Alyssa. She's actually the first fairy to be born in the traditional human way. Hmm, maybe Nissa, Drake or Orin will know. She thought as she pulled out her phone and dialed. Definitely cannot tell the family yet. At least not until we know for certain.
RING... RING... RING...
"How may I help you Alyssa? Is the Princess alright?" Nissa asked a little worried. Alyssa rarely called her.
"Well... Kyoko kind of needs to have a little test done. It's really nothing to worry about, but it is something quite unexpected. We think she may be pregnant." Alyssa whispered the last part.
"Whaaaa?! Really?!" Nissa squealed.
"Nissa! Calm down... We don't know for sure yet. That's why we need a qualified doctor that is familiar with our nature." She told her.
Nissa fell silent. "Alyssa... We don't get sick, and you know how fairy children are born. They aren't brought into this world the same as humans. The princess was the first." This certainly worried both of them.
They both fell silent for a moment trying to think of a solution to the problem. "I suppose we'll just have to find a doctor we can trust. I guess it needs to be done anyway."
"Or, we can ask the Boss or, Julie." Nissa suggested.
Alyssa sighed. "Kyoko and Kuon didn't want anyone to know yet."
"She's going to have to tell them anyway, and Julie would definitely know what to do." Nissa countered.
"I suppose you're right. I'll let them know that they need to call Julie. I guess, in the meantime I could pick her up a home pregnancy test." Alyssa conceded in defeat. They ended their call, and Alyssa grabbed a bottle of water from the catering table and prepared to let Kyoko know what needed to be done.
The tall, handsome man and his fairy wife stood in the bathroom, staring at the timer that was set to go off in six more minutes, awaiting the results. At the five minute mark, they had their answer.
Kuon cheered and scooped her into his arms. "We're having a baby!" He laughed. "Kyoko! We're going to be parents!" He declared while showering her with kisses.
She was worried, very worried. It wasn't that she didn't want to be pregnant; it was just that she had read so many books on fairies when she was small and this was not how they were created. Well, I guess I kind of broke the mold on that one when I was born. I wonder what Okasan went through... Her eyes lit up. Okasan! Maybe she can help. "Kuon, I have to call my mother."
"Of course Sweetheart. You call yours, and I'll call mine." He told her cheerily as he pulled out his phone and left the bathroom. Although, they would be calling their mothers for different reasons.
The calls went well. Julie was ecstatic but worried. This would be the first fairy baby born to another fairy in the human way. There were so many unknown factors. They would have to find a trustworthy doctor that wouldn't reveal them. How do you convince a man of science that fairies are real and have them keep it to themselves? This might be a problem. Julie promised Kuon that she would do some research before they hung up.
Saena was very worried. She had remembered her difficult pregnancy with Kyoko; however, now that she knew the reasoning behind it, perhaps she could help a tiny bit in the situation, even though it was different. Saena pointed out that Kyoko may not have as hard of a time as she did.
"Kyoko... You're a fairy. I was not. Looking back on it, I suppose that my body just couldn't handle all of your magic. I don't think you'll have the same problems I did, plus you've found out early and you can take better care than I did." She explained.
Kyoko was silent for a moment. "Mother... I'm so sorry." She had been sorry for causing her all of her troubles during her birth.
Saena laughed. "Kyoko... That was hardly your fault. Besides, now that I know the truth of the matter... I can be proud to say that the world has a very special and unique person in it and it's about to have one more."
Kyoko giggled and wiped the tears from her eyes. "Thank you Okasan."
"Alright now, enough of that. Let's meet up tomorrow for lunch or, something and we can figure out what to do." Saena wanted to change the subject before she started getting emotional too.
The women spent a bit more time on the phone discussing luncheon plans and other current events, then ended their call.
