9 Months of Maternity
Chapter 4- Myves
Kurama and Hiei finally repented to each other, Kurama was glad that the half Koorime was not mad at him any longer, Hiei could only say same, but there is still one thing that bothers him, that is to tell Kurama the child he is carrying is his.
"Kurama?" Hiei began, unsure how to begin their conversation properly.
"Yes koi?" Kurama was looking at Hiei with his natural smile.
"Kurama, it is about the child," Hiei paused.
"Hmm? What is it?" Kurama speculated.
"Kurama, when Koorime's are pregnant it is either they produce them by themselves, or they make love with another Demon and reproduce one." Hiei began, hesitant how to start it.
"Yes, I know that. Why did you say this all of a sudden?"
"Uhh, well you see my mother was the only Koorime that ever reproduced a child by means of another Demon. She was the only one, and she had me." Hiei didn't look at Kurama straight in the eye.
"Yes." Kurama was nodding his head, didn't know where it was going.
"And well, now that she had me, I am different to Yukina, because Yukina was reproduced by my mother herself that is why she has the Koorime features, or slightly saying she is whole ice demon, unlike me I only inherited some of the features of the ice demons and the fire demon. My outside appearance is of the fire demon, and the inside is the ice demon. You can say that I am half ice demon and half fire demon."
"I know that, that is why you are pregnant in the first place, am I not right?" Kurama pondered.
"Yeah you are correct, but," Hiei was about to tell him, he didn't know how to begin it.
"But?" Kurama looked suspicious.
"But, you see part of me being half Koorime, I can reproduce on my own, just like them. Only I don't have the initiative or the will to do so. Besides that I don't know how to." Hiei stopped when Kurama interrupted him.
"So you're saying that you can reproduce on your own, but you don't know how to or the will to do so." Kurama wanted to be clear about it.
"Precisely." Hiei said.
"Then why are you pregnant right now? How did it happen?" Kurama stopped when a sudden thought came to his mind, he turned to Hiei, and Hiei thought that Kurama already figured out the situation Hiei wanted to tell him. Kurama looked shocked; he didn't know how to react to it. Kurama asked him a question which can be possibly true or not "Hiei, is that child…mine?" Kurama asked maybe he was wrong but he had to know.
Hiei didn't answer him at once, he looked at the floor. Moreover, he slightly nodded his head. "Yes Kurama," Hiei muttered, admitting it was Kurama's.
Kurama was dumbfounded; his mouth was open; his eyes were widely open. He couldn't speak at first. Hiei looked at him slightly, afraid what he was going to say. He may not accept it, it was soon, neither one of them was prepared for it to come. Kurama finally spoke, Hiei was frightened in what Kurama was about to say.
"Hiei, I," Kurama discontinued, he was astounded, words could not express "Hiei, I don't know what to say. I am surprised. I rather expected it, but I didn't really think it was possible. Are you certain Hiei?" Kurama turned to Hiei wanting to know if Hiei was certain of it.
"Yes, I am certain. I checked it twice." Hiei said, the tone of his voice was low, he didn't exactly know how Kurama processed it in his mind. "When Yukina checked if I were pregnant or not, the first thing she felt was spirit energy. To be exact it was your spirit energy she felt, it was still little, but she can definitely tell it was yours. I didn't want to doubt my sister but I had to be sure, I used my Jagan on my self, and like as we all expected it the results were all positive. It was your spirit energy, so this child I am carrying, it is yours, Kurama." Hiei explained.
Kurama didn't say anything but was attentive to what Hiei said. He didn't know how to take it, it was a shock. Kurama didn't look at Hiei directly, he thought of what to say first.
"Kurama? Would you want to become the other parent of this child together with me?" Hiei asked, this was crucial moment for Kurama to accept it or not. Hiei didn't know what to do if Kurama didn't accept it. Hiei was unsure what to do if Kurama didn't want it, he didn't want to kill it, but he didn't also want to leave his lover just because of the child. His life would have been miserable is Kurama didn't accept it. It all depends on Kurama now, loosing the child or loosing Hiei that is the choice.
Kurama thought long and hard, he wanted to make the right decision. It can benefit all of them, or just loose one of them.
"Hiei, I love you very much, and I know definitely that you do too. Now, this child you are carrying, it is our creation. We created it because of the strong love we have for each other, it is a part of me, and a part of you." Kurama paused looking at Hiei directly "Hiei, I am honored to take care of the child with you. We will raise it as its parents, as it should be. I don't want anything bad to happen to you or the child; I love you both as much. Now, I am even more happier to find out I am going to have a child with you, it fills my heart with so much joy." Kurama walked towards his lover.
Upon hearing these words, Hiei's heart leaped for joy. He was happy that Kurama accepted this child. He was even happier that Kurama loved the child as much. After a while, Hiei embraced Kurama very tight, happy to know Kurama's opinion. Kurama returned the hug.
"Thank you Kurama, you don't know how much this means to me." Hiei said.
"No Hiei, thank you, you have given me something to share my love with, and that is our child." Kurama kissed the ear of Hiei, they slightly parted away, and making them face each other. Kurama didn't hesitate and kissed Hiei passionately, Hiei returned the kiss.
They had a chaste kiss, wanting more. It was not long and they finally parted; they had smiles in their faces.
"Hiei you don't know how much it means for me to have a family with you. I am really happy." Kurama said, smiling at Hiei.
"I was afraid that, you didn't accept it, or even me, if you found out. I was afraid that I would have chosen between you or the child." Hiei admitted.
"Hiei, I would never, not accept you. I love you more than anything, and does our child is worth everything, I would never not accept you, or the child. I love you both the most, with all my heart. Hiei, we created it. It is a combination of you, and me together. It is ours and we should take care of it as its parents. There was no need for you to be afraid; I was just surprised to know. But besides all that, I am really happy Hiei." Kurama said.
Hiei smiled at Kurama, "Thank you Kurama."
"There is no need to thank me for anything Hiei, it is you who I should thank, and you have given me a child to share my love with." Slowly Kurama reached out his hand to the abdomen of Hiei, trying to feel its energy.
Hiei held the hand of Kurama, which was over his abdomen.
After a while, Kurama took his hand off. In addition, looked at Hiei, "Yes, it is our baby. I felt my energy in there, like you said." Kurama gave Hiei a gentle warm smile.
Hiei smiled back.
By surprise, Kurama carried Hiei bridal style to the bed, Hiei struggled but Kurama just held him tight.
"Kurama put me down at once!" Hiei argued trying to struggle from Kurama.
"Koi, you need to rest, and so does our baby so I don't want you to waste any of your energy walking to the bed, so I will be the one to carry to there." Kurama held him even tighter until they reached the bed.
"Kurama!"
When they reached the bed, Kurama laid Hiei on the bed. Hiei was still annoyed with Kurama being carried away with Hiei's pregnancy situation.
"There, you can rest now." Kurama smiled, teasing Hiei.
"I can walk you know. There is no need to get carried away with the baby." Hiei crossed his arms pouting, laying on the bed.
"Now, now, now, it is for the best Hiei. Besides, I wanted to know how it feels like carrying a pregnant man." Kurama teased.
"Hn, your getting carried away Kurama." Hiei said pouting still.
Kurama joined him on the bed, embracing him. He kissed him on the cheek, making Hiei's anger melt away. Hiei embraced Kurama, cuddling himself making him comfortable.
"I love you Myves." Kurama said, babying Hiei.
"Myves?" Hiei questioned.
"It's a pet name for you, I thought about it just now." Kurama said smiling.
"What does that mean?" Hiei wondered.
"It means My love, it the shortcut for it, I just added an s in the end to make it sound better." Kurama giggled.
"Why is so important right now?" Hiei said groggily, it was unexpected Hiei thought.
"Well you always call me 'fox' or 'kitsune' so I thought of calling you something too, and it just ran in my mind to call you Myves. Do like it?" Kurama asked.
"If I agree with you, can we now sleep? I'm really worn out, and all I want is to sleep." Hiei said to Kurama sleeplessly.
Kurama made a yawn "Yes that would be nice." Kurama smiled looking out the sunlight, embracing Hiei on the bed tight, about to sleep as well.
"Hn, then Myves it is." Hiei made a big yawn. He cuddled to Kurama making him comfortable, he closed his eyes, and he was half a sleep. Everything that happened earlier on that day had worn him off. He needed rest, for himself and the child as well.
"Fox, you're not going to that Ningen University today are you?"
"No, not today. Today I am all yours and so as our baby, I want to spend the day with you both, and I don't want to worry about anything more but your safety and the safety of our child."
Hiei was already drowsing to sleep; he didn't get to reply to Kurama.
"Myves, I'm really happy you know." Kurama whispered he was practically half-asleep as well; he still had a small smile in his face.
"Me too fox, now go to sleep."
"Myves, one more thing."
"Hmm?" Hiei was already almost asleep he didn't want to talk anymore.
"I love you." Kurama leaned down and gave Hiei a gentle kiss.
"I love you too…fox." Hiei didn't get the chance to kiss back, but he felt the kiss. After a few seconds, Hiei fell to sleep. He rested in Kurama's arms, he was happier that Kurama loved him still after finding out about his pregnancy situation. He even loved him more, now he was going to have a family with him, the person that he loved the most. Kurama gave him a pet name and it was silly, but it shoed how much Kurama really loved and cared for him. Now, all he wanted was the day to pass with him in Kurama's arms.
Soon both demons fell into a deep slumber. Each of them side by side each other. They just wanted the moment to pass, and let everything fall into place after they awake. For now, they just wanted to be together. With their unborn child. Resting under the warmth of each other's presence.

BDT: Sorry I haven't updated in a week, I've been busy lately that I can only update in the weekends. Sorry about that. So anyway, what do you think about it? My friend was the one who gave me the idea to make the name Myves, she told me it was nice to combine words; it was already hard for me to think of a nice pet name for Hiei because most of the nice ones are already taken. So at least this time it's original. Hehehehe, well tell me what you people think. Please do mind my grammar and spelling, some of my reviewers tell me I am getting better, and I thank you for that. Please Read and Review, I really appreciate it. Thank you. I hope that you do enjoy.
