I am so very sorry for not updating sooner. I'm trying to even out each fanfiction I'm writing. I don't remember if I told you yet but in this story Hikari and Kei are dating. I hope that makes this less confusing. Well here is the next chapter.
HPOV
Hikari sat in a fancy black car on their way to Kei's house. He was with her but his presence was as if he wasn't there. He was deep into thought as he stared at the buildings and trees that passed by through the cars window.
Hikari was so nervous. Whats wrong with me, I have been to his house plenty of times. She kept on flashing gazes over at Kei.
He must have noticed her staring. "Hikari are you ok?"
"oh Ya, I just don't really know what to say right now." Hikari looked down at her lap. I have so much I want to say to him but I can't find the words to say it. How do I say this?
"Hikari," Kei unbuckled his seatbelt and moved in closer. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "You don't have to be afraid if you're with me."
I know but with the news I have, you probably would understand why I'm scared.
They soon arrived at Kei's house. They unloaded all of their things and went into the house.
"Hikari!" Kei's father sprang out of the house to greet her. Hikari readied herself to fight, but before she could show her new move to him she could fell herself being lifted off the ground. Kei held her in his arms bridal style.
"Father, how long are you going to keep up this foolish greeting game?"
"But Kei," he started winning like a 4 year old, "I haven't seen Hikari in forever."
"Later," he walked inside still holding her.
"Uh Kei, you can put me down now."
"I don't want to." Kei walked up in the direction of his room.
Hikari started to squirm, "uh please put me down."
Kei plopped her down on his bed. Before she could get up Kei locked his door.
"Kei?" Hikari sat up on his bed. Kei slowly started walking over to her. Blushes started creeping over her cheeks and she could feel herself getting hot.
Kei loomed onto the bed. He crawled on top of her. She was encaged inside his arms and legs.
"What are you-" Kei grabbed her wrist and pinned them down over her head. His face kept getting closer to hers.
She closed her eyes. Not again, please, I'm so scared.
"I want you to tell me." Hikari was freighted by what he said, she opened her eyes to see Kei place his forehead on hers. Something about him made Hikari feel sorry for him.
"Huh?"
"Your pretending like nothing's wrong. I know you Hikari, more than anyone. I don't want you to be scared of me. I want to help you in any way I can."
"B-but I'm fine." No you're not, stop telling yourself that.
"Why haven't you been eating?"
"I've just been feeing nauseous."
"So you've always been feeling nauseous, is that it."
"Well, I'm not feeling it now."
The door sounded with a knock. "Hey guys, dinners ready." It was Kei's younger brother. Thank goodness.
Kei let go of her wrists and sat up on her waist. "I'm sorry, but you made me worry." He got up and walked over to the door. "I'll meet you down stairs." He walked out of the room, leaving her alone.
Hikari sat up, head spinning about what had just happened. I never wanted to make him worry; I just didn't want to disappoint him. I have to tell him today. I can't bear hurting him much longer.
Hikari wanted to get up but she couldn't move. How do I tell him? What do I tell him? She finally stood with as much strength as she could muster. I have to treat this like a competition, I won't lose to him.
Dinner was dreadful, not one person spoke, not even Kei's father who is always going on about random things.
The food in front of Hikari looked delicious. Hikari's belly was churning and flipping again. Whenever she looked at food she would feel nauseous. I'm so hungry but I don't want lose this food later.
Kei's eyes were on her. Hikari knew what he was thinking. He's worrying again; well I'm not going to lose.
She picked up the fork and shoved a piece of food in her mouth. I have to control myself.
"Hikari, are you feeling ok?" Kei's father finally broke the silence. Hikari stiffened. Her sudden movement caused a sharp tweak of pain in her stomach. No, not again. She wrapped her arms around her abdomen, trying not to let the other notice that she was in pain.
"Hikari?" Kei was staring at her.
"Sorry I need to use the restroom." She got up and speed walked over to the bathrooms.
She slammed the door behind her and fell to her knees. The pain had gotten much worse. She wrapped her arms around her stomach and squeezed tightly, hoping that anything would make this pain go away. Why is this happening to me?
Her mind whizzed back to the terrible day she met that stranger. No. no I can't be-. Tears started rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.
The door to the bathroom opened suddenly. "Hikari!" it was Kei, he wore that shocked face that Hikari used to love seeing. It only made her tears come down harder.
He shut the door behind him and joined her on the floor. "Whats wrong." He placed his hand on her back, hoping to comfort her.
"I have to leave you," she was shaking, her sobs made the words that wanted to come harder to say.
"What? Whats going on?"
"I think-" she could barley breath. It's worse now. It's much much worse.
"What-"
Say it, say it. " I think I'm pregnant!" her sobbing grew louder. He knows now, now he can live his life without me.
She could never forget that face at the moment. His pupils were small and his skin was pale. He locked as if he was staring into the face of medusa.
"H-how can this-"
Hikari was so frightened. She didn't want to leave him. "T-the day before you visited me." she kept looking into his eyes, how could she look away. "a man broke in and r-raped me." every word choked her up as they left her lips.
"W-why didn't you tell me sooner?" His voice was deep with concern.
"I haven't even told my parents, they just thought that was sick. Sooner or later they will notice and I will have no choice but to let them down." She looked away as if giving up. She buried her face between her legs." I'm so worthless!"
"Hikari!" he faced her and held her firmly by the shoulders. Hikari found that all the fear in his eyes had vanished. "I'll take it"
"W-what?"
"Please tell your parents that this child belongs to you and me. It wasn't your fault and you shouldn't blame yourself. I won't let you suffer from this alone." He wrapped her in a tight embrace.
"Kei," she returned it deeply. She disappeared into his chest as sobs of joy replaced the ones of fear.
"I love you Hikari, I won't ever let you go."
"I love you too," she said breathing in between each sob." So much, I would do anything for you."
Kei held her chin in his fingers and brought her face closer to his. "Then become my wife," he closed their distance with a long passion kiss.
"Yes, a thousand times yes."
Hikari lost to him. But boy was she glad she did.
Things are turn for the better, but will they stay that way forever? How will the two families respond to this proposal? Find out in the next chapter…
