~Chapter 4: Christmas yet to come~

It was almost time for the giving of presents and everyone had been gathered together in the large hall, the fireplace burning (major having taken down the large swaztika flag that had been hanging up) and the tree looking very magnificient indeed.

"Ok, everyone! Presents vill be up soon-...Uh...yes...Zurin?" Major noticed Zurin standing up in the midst of everyone, trying to get his attention.

"Urm...I kind of have an announcement." Zurin stepped forward and made sure Jan stood up aswell.

"First...I vant to apologise for snapping at everyone. These past two veeks I've not been well and I've just been ignoring it, hoping it vould go away. But now...I know vhat it is...I don't vant it to go away. Doc?"

Doc stood up happily and stood up.

"After some observations and tests, I would like to announce, that Zurin is...Primigravida."

Everyone just looked at him slightly dumbfounded and others with blank expressions. Zurin merely huffed and puffed and jumped about.

"I'm pregnant!"

"....AHHHHHHHH!" A unison of girls led by Rip, Yumie and Seras squealed loudly, jumping up and all swarming around Zurin, whilst the others were either to gobsmacked to move or were smiling like idiots.

"Congrats bro', you're going to be a daddy!" Luke slung his arm around Jan, who was still sitting with a large dumbfounded smile on his face, staring at Zurin like she was a goddess.

"...Holy shit! I mean....F*****g hell!" Jan leapt up and went to go towards his lover, only being slapped by Yumie as he went.

"No more swearing! I never liked it, it's not good around Schrodinger and you're going to be a father now, so buckle up!"

"Oh, Jesus you stupid peng-OWWW!" Jan turned to where Zurin was pulling him towards her by the hair.

"Usually, I vould disagree vith my bitch being touched by someone other than me, but I have to agree 'penguin'. We're both going to have to tone down on our language for good practise, ok?"

After about five minutes of the girls squealing and hugging Zurin, whilst the men patted Jan on the shoulder and offered him their sturdy handshakes, Pip managed to grab everyone elses attention.

"Well, although that is beautiful, I TOO have an announcement. Seras." He signalled towards his sexy girlfriend, who obediently stood up, wondering what could be happening (she just knew Pip couldn't be pregnant either).

Seras turned back, gazing around in confusing when her eyeline didn't meet Pip's, before letting her head drop down and spotting him on the floor on one knee.

"Seras Victoria," he smiled sweetly at her, "would you do me ze honour of becoming my bride?"

Everyone gasped in surprise, just watching the scene. Seras herself was too shocked to even speak at the moment.

Then, she answered.

"YES! OH MY GOD, YES!" She squealed joyfully and jiggled up and down (which Pip made him fall for her all the more) as Pip slid the ring onto her finger. He stood up just in time to be engulfed in her hands and kissed senseless. The only thing that made them stop was the small squealing they could both hear and they remembered their audience. Turning to everyone, Seras proudly showed her ring off to Yumie and Rip, whilst Pip got his hand shook and heart slaps on the back (Alucard on the butt, only to scared him a little).
