Chapter 2: The Family

Soul took Maka's hand as she talked. "So me and Soul are pregnant."

Their friends and family looked at with surprise their reaction of surprise quickly turned to joy and delight, except Spirit who just remained frozen in shock.

"Well he's not trying to kill me." Soul pointed out.

"Better than we expected." Maka added.

"Oh Maka this is so great." Tsubaki congratulated. "I didn't even know you two were trying to have a baby."

"No, it just sort of happened."

Tsubaki gave a hug to Maka.

"Congratulations man." Black Star told Soul.

"Thanks." Soul told his friend. "But that doesn't mean you get to be godfather."

Liz told Maka, "Maka I know your going to make a great mom but if you ever need any help or advice-"

Maka finished her thought. "I know a good mom to ask, you."

They went out to dinner after they dragged Spirit home.

The next day Liz gave Maka the baby book she gave her, Liz told her it was better that she have it now. Maka wasn't really sure what to expect the baby book told her of some of the things she could expect but it also said that everyone experiences pregnancy differently. Maka didn't expect her pregnancy to be like Liz's she was having twins and shinigami. Liz was surprisingly energetic during her pregnancy but Maka was already feeling tired, it wasn't helping that she was waking up of every morning thanks to morning sickness. The whole experience was making her cranky but Soul was doing his best to be patient, Maka knew she was being a pain in his side and was doing her best to tone it down. So to thank him Maka suggested that Soul and the guy go out to play some basketball. The girl stayed with Maka at the manor so they could all keep an eye on the twins, Maka was happy she never liked going to play basketball.

"So Maka how are feeling?" Patti asked as chewed on a cookie.

"Well I've been tired but the doctor said that was normal." Maka answered.

"Well of course you are," Liz told her. "you're busy making a baby you have every right to be tired."

"But how are you feeling?" Patti asked again."

"What?" Was all Maka could muster.

"You look a little scared, I don't ever remember seeing you scared."

Maka grew quiet as her friends looked at her.

"Is something wrong Maka?" Tsubaki said with a soft tone.

"I might be a little scared. Maka admitted. "I thought I was ready to be a mom but now that I'm actually becoming a mom I'm not so sure."

The room was perfectly quiet except for the sound of Patti chewing.

Liz spoke up. "Maka, every mother feels like that. I felt like that and I'm sure your mom felt like that. Now that your pregnant and you're going to the doctor and everything it is making everything seems real. There is a lot involved in being a mother and when it all seems real it just seems too much but Maka trust me you don't have to worry. You're going to have Soul by your side to help you and so will we. Trust me Maka when you have your baby in your arms you will know that you were just being scared for nothing and that you won't be able to imagine life without your baby."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Liz spoke with such confidence that it made Maka hopeful that it would be fine. Later the guy returned with some groceries they picked up after their game. Kid and Liz went off to make dinner with some help from Patti will the others kept their eyes on the twins.

"So have you to decided on a name a yet?" Tsubaki asked the couple.

"No, we still haven't even found out the gender so we really can't pick a name." Soul explained.

"Well I'm sure you'll come up with something wonderful." Tsubaki told.

Soon they had their dinner and talked. Black Star tried to convince Soul to to let him to be the child's godfather. After a while they all started to get ready to go, knowing that Kid and Liz needed to get all the rest they could with the twin babies.

As they were making their way home to leave Maka noticed how Kid had fallen asleep on couch, they were cuddled up together each holding onto one of the twins both asleep too. Maka looked at them and they seemed so happy. Since they had become parents they had seemed closer and they were a family and they were happy together. She was really hoping to find something like that with Soul and their future child. She was going to tell Patti about the group that fell asleep but found her asleep face down in chocolate pudding.

She and Soul made their way home.

"You know maybe we should start coming up with names." Maka said smiling at her husband.

"Okay that's cool." Soul smiled back.
