Chapter 4: Dimitri
Kagome sighed and let her head fall back against the wall. This wasn't supposed to happen, they were careful. No, they were extra careful. But this still happened. How? She didn't know all she knew is that she was screwed.
"Kagome, are you alright? Was I too rough with you last night?" Dimitri called through the bathroom door, a touch of guilt slipping into his voice. "No, I'm fine. I'm just not feeling well is all." She replied miserably, thinking about how the night before he slammed her into a wall during their love making. "Do you want me to make you something for your stomach?" he asked. "No thanks." She said quietly. "I'll be outside getting wood for the fire then if you need me." He said before leaving quietly.
Kagome groaned after the front door closed and she looked up at the little stick in her hand again. The pink positive sign was gleaming up at her, mocking her for their little mess up. Sure, she wanted this, but she only thought she would get this further down the road; preferably after she was married and settled. Even though she and Dimitri had been together for over two years, she still didn't know if he wanted kids or not.
Feeling tears well up in her eyes, she threw the stick at the wall and, because the gods wanted to have a good laugh that day, it flew through the open window and onto the ground two stories below. Eyes wide, she jumped to her feet and ran to the window where the white test lay innocently against the stark green of the grass with Dimitri a few yards away picking up wood.
She looked frantically between the door and the window, she would never make it running down the stairs and around the house so she stepped onto the window and fell the two stories to the ground. "Ouch, last time I ever do that." She murmured after landing on a bush. "Kagome, are you alright? What were you thinking?" Dimitri asked rushing over to her and pulling her out of the bush.
"I'm fine, I was just trying to see if I could land on my feet." She said lamely, eyeing the thing causing her all of the distress behind him. "That was stupid, don't do that again. You could have been killed." He said pulling her into a hug. "I'm sorry." She said loving the feel of him against her body.
"Let me get the wood into the house and I'll check you over. Stay here." he said kissing her forehead and turning around. Kagome's blood ran cold when he suddenly looked down and froze his body stiffening. "Dimitri, are you alright?" Kagome asked weakly. Dimitri stooped down and picked it up before turning around slowly. "You're pregnant?" he asked looking up at her slowly.
Slowly tears filled her eyes and she nodded. He continued looking at the little plastic test as Kagome cried. Suddenly, he looked up and swept her into his strong embrace. He said something to her in Russian before kissing her deeply on the lips. "I love you." he whispered repeatedly in her ear. Kagome buried her face in his shoulder. "You don't mind?" she asked stupidly. "Of course not, I can think of no better woman to carry my child than you, the one I'm in love with." He said seriously, making her burst into tears again.
Rose Hathaway kept her eyes moving in the room, even if it was only her, Janine Hathaway (her mother), Adrian, Lissa, Christian and Tatiana; queen of the Moroi. "Where is she? I will not tolerate tardiness from anyone." She complained, impatiently checking the time again. "Your Majesty, it's obvious Higurashi isn't coming. Apparently what she had to take up with you is not as important as she claimed." Rose sighed.
No matter what she told anyone, she still didn't totally forgive Kagome for kidnapping and biting Adrian as a Strigoi. Tatiana nodded sharply and stood. "How dare she keep me waiting, and on MY birthday." Tatiana complained to her nephew, Adrian. The door opened and Kagome stepped in followed by Dimitri, both looking weary and slightly annoyed.
"Sorry we're late, we had a bit of a run in with a Dhampir." Kagome explained throwing a piece of hair over her shoulder. "Sit down." Dimitri said, leaving no room in his voice for argument. Rose stared at the man that once held her heart and felt something inside of her stir. She pushed the thought aside and sat with everyone else as they waited for one of the pair to say something, all of them a little surprised at the rather large stomach Kagome had.
Kagome stared at Tatiana then glanced at Adrian before biting her lip and turning back to Dimitri. "I can't do this." She hissed. "Yes, you can. Just tell her." he said kissing her temple. Kagome turned back and smiled. "I'm pregnant…. And Dimitri's the father." She said quickly. Rose, Janine, and Adrian all stared at them wide eyed as Lissa jumped up to hug Kagome and Dimitri with Christian right behind her.
Tatiana fumed and shot to her feet. "No! I forbid this! You are a guardian you are to guard her not create disgusting children!" she screamed. Kagome narrowed her eyes and slapped Tatiana. Janine and Rose jumped into action, jumping in front of the queen as Dimitri pushed Kagome behind him. "That's it! I release you from your guardianship over Higurashi! You are no longer to be a guardian; I want you back in Siberia as soon as you can get a flight. You are not to go near her again and if I find out you have, I will have you killed!" Tatiana exclaimed.
Kagome fisted her hands in the back of Dimitri's shirt nervously. "Dimitri." She whispered as her voice cracked. He turned around and brought her to him. "You know as well as I that I must do as I am commanded." He whispered. Kagome nodded, tears falling from her eyes. "I understand." She said equally quiet. Dimitri pulled back from her and cradled her head in his hands before kissing her. "No more tears now, love, be strong for both you and our child." He said kissing her forehead and turning away from her.
They watched as he strode confidently and calmly to the door and disappeared. Lissa broke out of her stupor and ran over to the sobbing Kagome, and helped her to her chair. "Aunt Tatiana, even for you that was a bit harsh." Adrian said breaking the silence. Tatiana snorted and stalked past her two guardians. "I expect the child to be dealt with accordingly; which means I want it killed." She growled forcing Kagome's head up to look at her.
As Tatiana began walking out, the hem of her dress caught on fire and she screamed. "Stop it Christian." Lissa hissed. "It's not me." He said surprised at the sudden flame. They both looked at Kagome as she glared at Tatiana. "Kagome, I think she got the message." Christian said placing a hand on her shoulder. Kagome broke her trance and the fire receded, causing the queen to turn to Kagome. Kagome stood and brushed past the group that was watching her with a mixture of awe, pity, and amazement. 'How am I going to do this?' Kagome thought laying a hand on her bulging stomach.
Dimitri finished stacking the boxes in the shed for his mother and sighed. He didn't like not fighting Strigoi, at least when he fought them his mind didn't wander; now it took all of his will power to stop thinking about Kagome. He walked out of the shed and towards the house. "Thank you for helping Dimitri." His mother said cheerfully.
He kissed her on the cheek with a smile. "You're welcome mother. Do you need help with anything else?" he asked sitting at the kitchen table. "I think that's it for now dear, are you hungry? Dinner's almost ready." She said turning back to the stove. Yeva stalked into the room, and sat at the table across from Dimitri and began grumbling in Russian. 'I wonder how Kagome is doing.' He thought as his mother gave him a plate full of food.
As they ate, Dimitri caught them up on everything in his life. As he told his mother about Kagome, she gushed that she would have loved to meet her and that she would be the perfect daughter-in-law. As he finished telling his mother about his confrontation with Tatiana, Yeva stood and shuffled over to the front door. "What are you doing?" Dimitri asked rising from his seat.
After a few moments of silence, Dimitri's instincts kicked in and he began scanning the room. Yeva shuffled back into the room pulling something behind her. "I'm coming, I'm sorry I don't quite know Russian." A familiar voice said. Dimitri shot to his feet and stared as Kagome was dragged into the kitchen. "Kagome, what are you doing here?" Dimitri asked. Kagome opened her mouth when Yeva gestured to the bundle in her arms. His mother stood up and walked up to Kagome. "Dimitri's told us so much about you, welcome to the family." She said kissing Kagome on both cheeks. "Thank you." Kagome replied.
They looked expectantly at Dimitri before he walked up to her. "Is-is this? Boy or girl?" he stuttered. Kagome giggled and moved the blanket away from the baby's face. "She's a girl, her name is Emmalyn; Emmalyn Belikov." She said softly. Dimitri looked at her then down at their little girl. "Dimitri dear, as much as I love having my daughter-in-law and my granddaughter here, don't you want to take them to your house?" his mother asked.
Dimitri nodded and kissed his mother and grandmother goodnight and led Kagome a few houses away. "Would you like to hold her?" Kagome asked when they were settled in his living room. He looked at her nervously as she handed him his daughter. "What about Tatiana?" he asked after a few minutes. "She died; she was killed in a plane accident a few days ago.
"So who took over? Lissa or Adrian?" he asked. "Adrian and Rose are now the king and queen of the Moroi Court. They re-instated you as my guardian again, that is if you want." She said quickly. "Nothing would make me happier." He said leaning his forehead onto hers. Kagome smiled and leaned into him. "I've missed you." she whispered. "And I you, but no more on the past, my love. Now, we look to the future, as a family." He said shifting Emmalyn in his arms. "That sounds fabulous." Kagome whispered locking her lips to his.
