AN: Not exactly sure where I'm going with this since I removed a huge piece a while back where Allen had admitted to liking Kanda and they sort of got together. Its a toss up if Allen stays with Tyki cause of the baby who may or may not survive or if he runs away with kanda... We'll see.
Allen dropped out of school shortly after he found out he was pregnant. He didn't really leave the house since there wasn't much to do now that he wasn't in school. He started doing homeschooling though, so he wouldn't fall behind academically. So, Allen spent most of the day in his room doing school work. Everyone was rather concerned for Allen but at least it was a little less stressful for Allen which was good for his heart.
"Hey Ali. I brought you some food…" Tyki said as he entered Allen's room but much to Tyki's surprise Allen was fast asleep on the window bench with a text book in his hands. Setting the box of food down on the desk Tyki covered Allen with a blanket. Tyki sat down in the chair studying Allen as the albino slept. Truthfully Tyki felt bad about everything he had done to Allen, but he didn't know how to even begin fixing it. So, it was likely Tyki was going to lose Allen to whoever Allen liked. Who was Tyki kidding though… he knew Allen liked Kanda. And Kanda probably liked Allen too.
If Tyki was still being truthful, even before Adam gave Allen a choice, Tyki always feared Allen would run away with Kanda and leave him behind. Now it was even more likely that Tyki would lose Allen. Tyki came back to reality when Allen started to wake up. When Allen realized Tyki was sitting there watching him sleep Allen jumped a little bit.
"Tyki? What are you doing?" Allen asked as he recovered from the jump scare of being watched as he slept. Closing his book Allen turned to face Tyki wondering why Tyki was in his room watching him sleep.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I brought you food, but you were sleeping. I didn't want to wake you. You seemed peaceful. Do you want to go out and do something? It's a nice day… And you seem to always sit in your room…" Tyki offered as he handed Allen the box of food he had brought him. Everyone in the house was struggling to get Allen to eat decently or to come out of room but they kept trying.
"Not really. I don't feel good. I just want to sleep." Allen said closing the box of food setting it off to the side deciding he didn't want to eat. Tyki frowned a little when Allen rejected the food. It wasn't that he was mad that Allen didn't eat what he bought, but that he was worried for Allen.
"Ali… I'm worried. I want to take you to the doctor…You've been eating less and sleeping more…" Tyki said as he watched Allen move from the daybed to his real bed to lay down. The older male was worried that maybe Allen's heart was getting worse and that was why Allen wasn't feeling well all the time.
"Okay…" Allen simply said as he laid down covering himself with the blanket. He doubted Tyki would be dragging him to the doctor right away. Allen was sure it was too late anyway since the doctors office was likely closed now anyway.
"Come on Allen. Get up." Tyki ordered as he stood up walking over to the bed pulling the blanket off of Allen. Allen protested trying to get the blanket back from Tyki. The albino was cold so he wanted the warmth of the blanket back.
"Why can't it wait?" Allen asked still trying to get the blanket back. He didn't see the point in rushing, he didn't feel that bad….most of the time. In the end Allen lost the battle as Tyki insisted on taking Allen to the E.R. Allen at this point was six months pregnant and Tyki was really worried about Allen's heart. Allen hadn't been back to the doctor since he found out he was pregnant which meant they didn't know if Allen's heart had been getting worse over time. And it was hard to tell if all the changes to Allen were from the pregnancy or if his heart was starting to fail.
"So what brings you in tonight?" The registration person asked in the E.R. when Allen and Tyki walked up to the window.
"He has a bad heart and I really want to have his heart checked and I don't want to wait until tomorrow. He doesn't eat, he's nauseous a lot, he sleeps a lot, he sometimes has a real bad cough and his breathing at night is weird sometimes. He is also five months pregnant…. But I worry it's not pregnancy symptoms." Tyki explained as he handed over Allen's id and any other things the person needed. Clearly the person was a little…a lot shocked to hear a male being pregnant. But with hybrids it actually wasn't super uncommon for a male to be able to get pregnant. L
"Okay…. Well we can check his heart…" The person said as they worked to type in Allen's information and such. Tyki could tell the person didn't think it was as serious as Tyki did which pissed Tyki off.
"Look when I say he has a bad heart, I mean he is on the transplant list because he needs a new heart. Its that bad. So if you could take our concern more serious that would be great." Tyki growled at the person.
"Tyki…" Allen called as he gripped Tyki's sleeve. Tyki didn't look at Allen since he assumed Allen was trying to tell Tyki to be calm and nice to the person but when there was a tug to his sleeve and then a thud Tyki realized Allen had passed out. Allen had been feeling really light headed as they stood there arguing with the registration person and had some trouble breathing, so he had tried to get Tyki's attention and tried to catch himself before he passed out but it hadn't worked.
"Allen!" Tyki quickly knelt down beside Allen trying to get him to respond but Allen was out. The registration person called for a code but one nurse who was working the triage station was quick to abandon the person they were checking to help Allen. Allen's heart had actually stopped so everyone was doing everything they could to get Allen's heart restarted. After they finally managed to get Allen's heart restarted they got Allen into a gurney and into a room. That just went to show that Tyki was right to bring Allen to the E.R instead of waiting to take him to the doctor tomorrow.
As the E.R doctors and nurses did their tests Tyki called Komui's office to leave a voicemail letting him know what happened. After that Tyki called Adam and Mana to let them know what happened as well. Thanks to that almost everyone in the pack showed up in the E.R waiting room. Luckily it seemed like a quiet night so the pack wasn't taking up too much space for other people.
"Mana Cross?" Someone called making most of the pack stand up but only Mana, Cross, and Tyki went over to the doctor. "Okay… which of you is Mana?" The doctor asked the small group that stood in front of them.
"I am but this is his other father and his sort of fiancé… its fine." Mana explained so the doctor could say what he needed to say.
"Okay…well earlier as I'm sure you know, Allen's heart stopped, we got it started again so we took him to get some tests done… His heart is failing… he won't make it long without a transplant. With his condition being worse now he is bumped up the list but its still a waiting game… The bigger issue is the concern of his pregnancy. He is able to get the transplant while pregnant… but that puts him at high risk for losing the baby. But we would keep him here so if anything went wrong we would do everything to save him and the baby. He and the baby would be monitored around the clock. So for now we will get him to a room in the cardiac icu and deal with the transplant list." The doctor informed them which really didn't put any of them at ease. In the end Tyki was allowed to stay in the E.R and the cardiac room with Allen overnight. Allen was out cold due to some medicine they had given him earlier to keep him stable and comfortable since he was having trouble breathing and had woken up in a panic at one point.
In the morning Allen was still sleeping when the doctor came in to check on Allen. Tyki woke up when he heard someone walk in, he had just started to fall asleep after staying up all night watching over Allen. Tyki didn't want the doctor to wake Allen up but the doctor needed to talk to Allen about options and such. He would also have to talk to Mana since Allen was still a minor and Mana was his legal guardian.
"Allen… Sorry to wake you but I need to ask you some questions…" The doctor said softly as he gently woke Allen up. The albino was rather groggy but he woke up looking to the doctor a little confused. "Hi Allen… how are you feeling today?"
"Tired…. I wanna sleep. My chest hurts…" Allen replied closing his eyes. The chest pain concerned Tyki but not the doctor as much. It was possible the chest pain was from the defibrillator they used to restart Allen's heart yesterday. The doctor did some tests and asked questions just to make sure that it was the lingering pain from being shocked and not an issue with Allen's heart.
"The baby…?" Allen asked after the doctor explained everything that happened to him last night. He was worried the shock may have hurt the baby.
"That monitor there…that is monitoring your baby's heart beat… The baby is doing fine right now." The doctor explained pointing to a monitor near Allen that the teen could see. As they were talking Mana walked in since he hadn't gone far from the hospital in case they needed him. He had already known that they would need his permission to do anything to Allen since Allen was his son. So they basically had the same conversation over again but this time with Mana filling out paperwork and stuff.
"But you promise to try and save the baby too right…? If anything goes wrong?" Allen asked as he was now sitting up in bed. He wasn't worried about himself as much as he was the baby. The baby was a new and pure being that deserved a chance to live just as much if not more than Allen. Yes everyone knew Allen and was attached to Allen whereas they didn't know the baby but that didn't mean they should just give up on the baby to save him. The baby had a chance at a better happier life whereas Allen wasn't as happy and didn't care as much as others if he died. The main reason he wanted to keep living was for this baby, to be its mother. He had decided along the way that he wanted to raise the baby himself with Tyki… or maybe without. He still was working that part out.
"Yes. We will try to save the baby as well if it comes to that. A doctor will be there in the surgery monitoring the baby and should the baby go into distress they will take the baby out and take it to the NICU…or to surgery if needed. We will take all precautions when you get to have the transplant. We are still having to wait for a heart so right now it's just planning and monitoring. The baby was in distress last night so…there's a chance the maybe might come out before the transplant…" The doctor explained which didn't help Allen keep calm which they could tell by Allen's heart monitor.
"B-but I'm not even six months yet… its only 23 weeks old… It wouldn't survive… Why can't we keep the baby in if its distressed?" Allen asked very concerned for his baby. Mana tried to calm Allen down stroking his hair and rubbing his back. They knew they had to keep Allen calm or things would only get worse for him and the baby.
"If we leave the baby in while it is in distress will cause serious problems for you and the baby would die. So that is not the option you want to go with. But if we take the baby out when it is in serious distress it would have at least a fighting chance…to live even if for a short while…" The doctor said which basically told all of them that no matter what…the baby wasn't likely to survive. "Look we are getting ahead of ourselves… For now all we can do is keep you and the baby calm. You can't have the heart surgery until a heart that matches you comes available so for all we know by the time it comes to have the surgery and the baby might need to be taken out it might be old enough to survive with little complications." The doctor said which led to more discussions until eventually the doctor left. Allen gave up and laid down trying to pretend this was just a bad dream.
