- Chp. 4-
"Yes, but Kanda does not know yet." Komui answered Lenalee and watched as his sister tried to wake up Lavi. She patted his cheeks and tried to get his eyes to open.
"Lavi, Kanda is leaving you!" Lenalee shouted loudly into his ear. Lavi was immediately upright, eye wide with fear. "I was kidding." Lenalee laughed, giving Lavi a pat on the head before skipping out of the room.
"So it is true..." Lavi said to himself, looking at the papers he had dropped. "Shit..." he mumbled.
"You don't sound to happy." Komui pointed out. Lavi had forgotten he was in Komui's office and flinched from Komui's voice.
"I'm very happy... I just don't know how Kanda is going to deal with this..." Lavi mumbled, thinking of the future events. "I just know it's not going to be good... at all."
"Well, why not go and get some sleep. You can talk to him in the morning." Komui said while ushering Lavi out. Lavi left, going back to where Kanda was asleep. Crawling into bed next to him, Lavi wrapped his arms around Kanda's waist.
"I love you." he whispered just before slipping off.
- Break -
In the morning Kanda was the first one awake, feeling absolutely horrible and laying on the cold floor by the bed. He hadn't eaten in long enough time so he couldn't throw up, which slightly saddened him because he knew he'd feel better after that.
Lavi was still lightly asleep on the bed, white sheet wrapped around him. Kanda didn't want to wake him, no matter how much pain he was in. What he hated most was that he didn't even know what was going on.
"Damn it... Lavi..." he spoke weakly as he shook the red heads shoulder to wake him. One green eye fluttered open, looking up at his face. Kanda only showed his feelings and didn't speak.
"Oh Yu..." Lavi said groggily, but nonetheless he opened his arms for Kanda to come and snuggle into. It had become a habit between them when Kanda had his ears. Kanda burried his face into Lavi's chest and tried to focus on something other than the pain. That just so happened to be Lavi's heartbeat.
"I'm sorry..." Kanda murmurred, relaxing against his lover. He didn't want to sleep anymore, but it was almost to comfortable.
"No need, everything is okay for the most part." Lavi sighed and ran his hand through Kanda's hair. "I talked to Komui... he told me what was wrong." Kanda immediately snapped to attention, shoving Lavi away and looking at him. Lavi was startled by the sudden movement and sat up, wide awake.
"Tell me." was all Kanda said. Lavi couldn't make out any emotion in Kanda's voice that would hint him on how the reaction would be. Taking a deep breath, Lavi prepared himself for the worst.
"I'm going to get straight to the point Kanda. You're pregnant." Lavi spoke with sincerity, watching Kanda just stare at him, not blinking. Shock filled his eyes as he looked for any sign other than truth on Lavi's features.
"You... y-you're not joking, are you?" Kanda asked softly, tilting his head down to hide his own emotions. Lavi nodded, not sure of what to do. Kanda pulled away from him and slipped on a long sleeve shirt and slippers, already wearing pants. He walked over to the door before pausing. "Lavi?"
"Yes Kanda?" Lavi was worried. The redhead knew this couldn't be good. Kanda stayed silent, thinkin for a moment before opening the door.
"Follow me, before I do something stupid." Kanda said, whispering the last part before briskly walking out the door. Lavi scrambled to get out of the bed before darting out the door behind Kanda. Thankfully not slipping on the covers in his mad dash.
He had followed his lover, though not sure if he should call Kanda that, all the way to Komui's office and workroom. Kanda didn't stop to knock and walked right in and up to Komui's desk where he looked up from his paper work.
"Kanda, Lavi, such a nice suprise." he said with a wide smile, not noticing the dark aura wafting off Kanda.
"Komui..." Kanda paused to take a breath. "What the hell is the meaning of this! I'm a male and no way in hell should I be pregnant!" he screamed out, clearly pissed. Lavi watched quietly, ready to jump in to prevent any premature deaths. Komui leaned back a bit in his chair, frightened slightly by the outburst.
"With whatever you were injected with, it must have caused it to happen. And, so soon after with you getting together with Lavi, it should explain itself." Komui spoke, not getting any response from the angered male, so he continued. "It altered your DNA's structure allowing you to conceive. I can not be completely sure why the akuma would do this though. We're looking for answers..." Komui continued on talking and explainin things.
Lavi watched Kanda from the side, praying everything would be okay. Kanda stood up straighter and placed a hand over the lower half of his face, eyes obviously holding tears a bay. Komui had finished speaking and was now watching the emotions Kanda showed.
"Kuso..." he muttered under his breath before tugging his hand away and turning. He made a dash to get out of the room and quickly escaped, not stopping to look back. Leaving Lavi and Komui in shocked states. It was silent for a moment.
"Go after him, I know he won't do anything stupid. But he needs someone. That's the most emotion he's shown in a long time... I'm proud of that, both of you. I'm happy someone brought out his emotions." Komui said, turning and giving Lavi a smile.
"Thank you, I'll make sure nothing happens." Lavi said with a sheepish grin before darting out after the samurai.
I took a while, but Lavi finally found Kanda. He was outside of the order, laying in the grass and relaxing. He was immersed in his thoughts and didn't hear Lavi approach, but he did pick up on the red head sitting next to him.
-Kanda's POV-
I didn't care that Lavi was sitting next to me, or running his fingers through my hair. As long as he stayed silent it didn't matter. I was still trying to get over the fact that I was... pregnant. It wasn't in my nature to feel much emotion, but ever since that incident and with Lavi... things had changed. I wasn't sure if I should like it or not.
The breeze made goosebumps rise across my skin, chilling me and causing shivers. I knew Lavi must be as cold, but I didn't want to move. I wanted to stay like this forever. In peaceful silence, but my own thoughts were troubling enough.
I really didn't know what to expect or what to feel. I remember one single detail Komui had mentioned. He said that I was going to start changing, as in becoming a women. That would explain why I had gotten a womenly figure in the first place.
But then what about the cat ears? Right, he said something about those to, but I couldn't be so sure. It was probably the akuma's weird intentions. Lovely.
"Yu-chan." I was snapped back to reality when Lavi had spoken my name. Upon opening my eyes, I realized it had to have been at least an hour that we were out there. Lavi looked a little worried.
-Normal POV-
"Yu-chan." Lavi said softly, not to startle Kanda. Kanda opened his eyes to Lavi's worried expression. Blinking a few times he sat up and stretched.
"What is it?" Kanda asked, trying to ignore all the inner-emotions he felt. Lavi reached out and pulled him into a hug, making warmth blossom between their bodies. The cold wind whipped past them and made their hair flow about.
"I'm sorry Yu." Lavi whispered to him, tightening his hold against Kanda. He never wanted to let go, the only reason he would want to is if Kanda told him so. He felt the body tense against him.
"For what?" Kanda asked, just as quietly. He was worried about what Lavi was going to say. The red head never apologized for anything small, so it had to be something very important.
"I'm sorry for making you go through this. I can tell you don't like it at all... and with everything that's going to happen to you and your body... This is all my fault. If in the begining I didn't let myself ever get controlled by that akuma none of this would have happened. I would still be an apprentice bookman and you would still be 'cold as ice Yu-chan'." Lavi spoke with all emotion evident. He didn't hold back, he needed Kanda to know how he felt.
"You fool... I never expected this to happen so you can't tell me I don't like it. I love being with you, you make me feel all these emotions. You make me feel alive. I'm not sure about the whole becoming a women, but Komui said it would go away once I have the child." Kanda pushed Lavi away slightly so they could look at each other. Deep blue met emerald green and tears slipped free. They never knew something could be so emotional.
Lavi leaned in and captured Kanda's lips in a kiss. It was gentle, soft, and sweet. "I Love Yu." Lavi said with a smile, making a little joke.
"I Love you to, La-kun." Kanda spoke happily, using a newly found nickname for Lavi. They embraced once more, basking in each others warmth. Somehow they just knew everything was going to be okay.
