A.N. I feel in a good mood, why? 'Cause I already wrote the second half of this chapter and I only need to write the first half of it~ :}
Ace's POV
"Happy one year anniversary."
Smoker kissed my cheek and extended me a box, I took it and opened, there was a ring in it. It was made from white gold like the previous two and had the same orange gem stone like the first one. Only that instead of one big gem stone there was a line of smaller ones placed in the middle of it.
"You shouldn't have!"
My grey haired husband kissed me. "It was worth only to see you smile like this…"
He took the ring out of the box and put it next to the first two, I admired my three rings for a moment and then I remembered mine. "Wait a moment!"
I quickly ran to our wardrobe and started searching for a small box, I finally found it in a pile of clean socks and ran back to Smokey. I put a quick peck on his lips and extended it to him, he took the box and took the ring outside.
It was the same length as our wedding rings and as all rings it was made from white gold. The top of it was cut a little and it looked like there was a lot of layers of it, in the middle of it there laid black gemstone.
He leaned and kissed me with a passionate kiss, after a minute or two we parted panting, my stomach rumbled. "I'm hungry~"
Smoker chuckled. "Let's go, I will make you breakfast."
Today is our one year wedding anniversary we both decided to take a day off today and as tomorrow is Saturday we're going to have two long days only for ourselves, it would be three, but we're going to drink tea on Sunday…
I sat at the kitchen table and started watching Smoker cook, he took out a box of eggs and a carton of milk. He put everything into a bowl and started adding spices, he also put an onion inside and toasted some bread.
When the frying-pan heated he poured the mass in it, after several minutes the smell off roasting eggs reached my nostrils. I suddenly felt a tug in the lower part of my stomach and the contents of my empty stomach started rising up. I quickly stood up and ran out of the room to the bathroom.
After several seconds Smoker ran in after me, he had a worried expression on his face and when he saw me kneeling in front of toilet his expression changed into shocked. I stood up and rinsed my mouth the taste in it wasn't enjoyable… I felt my legs shake a little Smoker's hand landed on my waist and brought me in for a hug. "What was that?"
I thought about it for a second; we never used protection and being a natural element user I don't get sick, of course that one exception which happens only to element users… When we get pregnant we have the same symptoms that normal women have…
"I think I'm pregnant…"
Smoker's body stiffened. "Really?"
His voice contained expectation and I grinned; that's my Smokey, what's his first reaction to me probably being pregnant? Excitement. "Well I need to check and after I do I want my breakfast on table, I turned off the fire for now, but you better be going…"
Smoker rolled his eyes and I let the fire on the stove burn again, my husband walked out of the bathroom to finish our breakfast. I sighed and put my hand on the top of our mirror-cabinet; two weeks ago when my mom started the talk about grandchildren she forced a pregnancy test into my pocket. After Smoker decided that it's not a bad idea, I hid for a time I might need it…
I opened it up and saw two sticks inside and a small leaflet with instructions…
After several minutes I stood in front of the mirror with pregnancy tests in each of my hands, both of them showed positive… I put them on the edge of sink and ran to the kitchen. "Smokey~! They're positive!"
-II-
"Ace! Congratulations! You're seven weeks long!"
I hugged the little doctor with a grin on my face; after I ate breakfast Smoker brought me to Chopper, so he could make a blood test to be sure that I'm preganant and to see how long I am. "Seriously? We decided to have baby just two weeks ago!"
Chopper giggled. "Well baby made up his mind before you did."
I let go of a little man and looked at him. "When does yours come?"
Brown orbs looked at the stomach that was already getting bigger. "Well I'm five months with a half through, so after two weeks I will stop working."
It was almost a miracle as cutch a cute little man who had control over reindeers fell in love with a big and a little bit clumsy doctor Bepo from Law's department who controlled polar bears. Though when together they looked really nice. They have been married for about half a year and Chopper is already pregnant…
Through all world Grand Line is the city where element users gather, it's said that 87 percent of the element users lives in Grand Line… So it's no wonder that it has a hospital where all doctors are only element users…
"Ummm, Ace?"
I looked down at the little doctor. "Yea?"
"Why you didn't go to Law? He's your brother-in-law after all…"
I smiled and put a finger on my lips. "We want to keep this a secret till Sunday, can you do that?"
Chopper nodded and adorable smile bloomed on his lips. "I can do that!"
I laughed and patted Chopper's light brown hair. "Okay, I'm going to tell Smoker, see you soon!"
-II-
I took off my shoes and started walking to the living room, just as I was about to go through the door Luffy came in. "Hi Luf! Hurry up, you're late!"
My little brother nodded and I walked into the room with a huge grin plastered on my face; mom will be flattered… We sat into our usual seats and my mom immediately noticed my grin, well Smoker was smirking too; I mean who wouldn't after getting to know that they're going to have baby!
"Talk."
Everyone looked at mom and then followed her gaze to me. "Let's wait till Luffy comes, he's in the corridor."
Luffy walked in the room, sensed the tense atmosphere and quickly took the last empty seat by Trafalgar. "He's here, now tell!"
I felt my grin widen. "Remember that thing you kept nagging us about? Well, it's happening, I'm pregnant!"
My and Smoker's moms jumped up squealing they ran to us for a big hug, Marco and Trafalgar had stunned expression on their faces while our dads had a self-satisfied grins. Sabo and Luffy jumped up and ran to hug us too.
When a very flexible hand wrapped around the five of us it ended up just in front of my face and I saw something shining on his left hand. "No way!"
The commotion stopped and everyone looked at me surprised. "Luffy! Show me you left hand!"
Now that the hug was broken I quickly snatched Luffy's hand, his cheeks became red and he started walking back, but I held his hand strongly, so he only started stretching. Mom quickly ran to me and looked at Luffy's hand that I was holding.
On his ring-finger there was elegant ring with a diamond that was shaped like heart. Mom's eyes widened as much as human can. "Luffy?!"
Luffy gulped and looked at Law for help, Trafalgar stood up flicked his fingers and created room. With another flick of his fingers Luffy's hand was replaced with a plate and Luffy appeared in his hands. My mom blinked at the plate and then looked at Trafalgar, once again her eyes widened as she finally put two plus two.
She pointed at Law. "No way!"
I looked at Trafalgar's mother and saw that she was surprised as much as Rogue. My eyes wandered to Dragon and Mr. Law. "It seems you owe me twenty dollars Kyle."
Mr. Law shook his head. "I should have known better then bet with you about when they will announce their relationship…"
My mom looked at my father accusingly. "You knew and didn't tell me!"
My father laughed. "I can't give away my sons secret, can I?"
Mom looked around the room judging everyone's expressions; she has a good eye for that. "Everyone except Clarisa and me knew!" She shouted with an angry voice.
A ball of energy that I usually call mom stormed to the two sweating raven hairs and stopped just in front of them. She sighed and hugged them. "Am I that scary?"
Luffy nodded. "Uh huh."
Mrs. Law smiled and went to her son and future son-in-law, she also hugged them two. "I'm sorry that you felt the need to hide your relationship from us for so long…"
"Well actually for a half year we just didn't find an occasion in which we could to tell…"
Mom smacked Luffy's head. "Idiot son."
After five minutes hugging and congratulations were finally finished, so we sat at the table and finally started drinking tea…
A.N. I hope your jaws fell open more than once reading this chapter, or well at least I hope you got surprised… :}
