Last time on Yamachi's pregnancy Taichi found out his baby had a deathly problem and is going to go see Koushiro about it.

I don't own digimon.

Ch 7 The Pain of Childbirth

Takeru didn't come over today. Tiachi said he could go alone because Takeru had a big test tomorrow and he had to study. Taichi was depressed and all alone. He was about to leave for Koushiro's appointment then the phone rang.

Ring ring

Taichi went to answer it.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Hey, babe!" said the voice on the other end.

"Yamato!" yelled Taichi into the phone, he was very surprised to talk with his lover after so long.

"Tai-chan, how's everything going? Is Takeru taking good care of you?" asked Yamato.

"Yeah, he's like an older brother," laughed Taichi, "And I'm doing good, my tummy's sore, the babies have been kicking me all morning, and I have to pee every hour, and I have crazy mood swings."

"Aww poor Tai-chan," Yamato joked, "Oh! Did you find out the gender of the baby yet?"

"Yeah," said Taichi, "we're having twin boys."

"TWINS!?" Yamato was shocked but not sad, "That's great Taichi!"

"Yeah I guess so," said Taichi, not that happy about it.

"Sorry I havent called in so long, we're really busy over here," said Yamato, "Oh I'm sorry Taichi but I have to go, I'll call you again as soon as I can!"

"Ok," said Taichi. He didn't want to tell Yamato about the problem with their baby yet. It would just make Yamato worry.

"Love you, Bye," said Yamato and hung up. Taichi put down the phone and left the house. He locked the door and got into his car and drove away. He was nervous to see Koushiro, hopefully he can cure his baby.

(' - ') at Koushiro's house...

Ding dong

Taichi rung the door bell and heard footsteps coming to answer the door. Koushiro opened the door but Taichi was surprised at what he saw. Koushiro looked the same as he did in high school (short red hair, thin body, and medium hight) but there was something different about him, very different.

"Taichi! it's good to see you again, come on in," said Koushiro and he stood out of the way and let Taichi come in. They then moved into the living room. It was a huge house, Koushiro made loads of money, he was a big time researcher and professor in college. He studies various incurable diseases and tries to find a cure for them. They then moved to the basement, aka his research lab. It looked like a doctor's office but with a warm feeling.

"So how have you been doing? I havent seen you in ages!" asked Koushiro.

"Everythings great!" said Taichi who hasen't seen Koushiro since his and Yamato's wedding. His belly was huge! "Are you pregnant?" asked Taichi not trying to sound rude just incase he's just fat.

"How kind of you to notice," Koushiro joked, "Yeah I'm due an about a week now."

"Wow," said Taichi, just staring blankly at Koushiro's belly wondering if he was going to get that huge.

"...I'm sorry to hear about you're baby Taichi," said Koushiro, now in a serious tone.

"It's okay," said Taichi.

"Well if we ever want to fix this baby then we'd better get started," Koushiro said and patted Taichi's belly. Then he waddled over to the cupboard and got out a bunch of machinery.

"Ahhh!" Koushiro said in pain and dropped everything he was holding and clenched his belly.

"Oh my gosh are you okay!?" said Taichi.

"Yeah, I'm fine," said Koushiro, "just a contraction, but don't worry they're hours apart."

"Okay," said Taichi still worried. Koushiro bent down to pick up the things he dropped but he was having some trouble. Taichi helped and eventually the two pregnant men got everything off the floor.

"Hey Koushiro, how did you get pregnant?" Taichi asked, knowing Koushiro wasn't married.

"Well I'm really good friends with these professors at the university I work at, they really wanted kids but neither he nor she could carry a child, so to better understand the process of pregnancy, I became a surrogate mother. For the knowledge of science of course," he explained.

"I see," said Taichi. Koushiro then started setting things up and for the next half hour they ran test after test until they were interrupted by another contraction.

"Ahh!" Koushiro said in pain holding his belly.

"Are you okay? aked Taichi, "maybe we should go to the hospital."

"No, no, I'm fine," said Koushiro and they resumed testing. 15 minutes later another contraction came. They kept coming faster and faster. Koushiro was in a great deal of pain.

"Koushiro, we should really go!" said Taichi, concerned about his friend.

"It's too late, I think my water broke," said Koushiro in intense pain.

"Oh my gosh, common let get to the hospital," said Taichi.

"It's too far away, I'd just end up giving birth in the car," he said, "There's a birthing table in the other room, through that door, Ahhh!" and he was hit with another contraction. Taichi then took Koushiro into the other room.

"Why do you have a birthing table!?" asked Taichi as they rushed into the other room.

"At the research lab they were going to throw it away because it was taking up space so i took it," Koushiro explained. Taichi laid Koushiro down on the birthing table.

"Now what?" Taichi asked.

"Ok, wash your hands, boil some water, and get some towels," Koushiro said. Koushiro was directing his own birth. As expected of the genius of the group. Taichi scurried around in panic trying to get all these items and he returned with them all. Koushiro was laying there holding his belly and doing breathing exercises. He was in a lot of pain right now.

"Ok, I got everything," Taichi said, out of breath, "now what?"

"Ok, take off my pants and check to see if ... my you know what is dilated," he said.

"Excuse me?" said Taichi, very uncomfortable with the thought.

"Just do it!" screamed Koushiro and let out another yell of pain. Taichi did as instructed.

"Ok, now what?" said Taichi, he was panicking now, this was the first time anything like this ever happened to him.

"Now you just wait and catch the baby when it comes out," Koushiro said and gave Taichi a smile. Taichi almost fainted but he knew he had to do it.

"He he hoo, he he hoo," Koushiro was breathing hard and was sweating really bad.

"Push!" said Taichi trying to help.

"I'm trying!" said Koushiro and he kept pushing, "AHHHH!" Koushiro let out another big yell.

"I can see the head!" said Taichi, "keep pushing!"

Koushiro kept pushing and eventually the baby was born. It was crying. Taichi wrapped it in a towel and handed it to Koushiro. Koushiro was relieved and out of breath.

"It's beautiful," said Taichi.

"We've just experienced the miracle of birth, my friend," Koushiro said to Taichi, "And uh Taichi?"

"Yeah?" said Taichi.

"You might want to cut the umbilical cord," said Koushiro.

"Haha, right," said Taichi and he cut it.

"Taichi, take the baby and put it in that crib, please?" Taichi took that baby and set it down. Koushiro then fell asleep.

"I'll let him rest," said Taichi to himself, "he's has a rough day." and Taichi just sat in the room and watched over Koushiro and his new born baby.

"What a crazy week!" he said.

(' - ') A few hours later...

"Huh?" Koushiro said weakly as he opened his eyes, "What happened?"

"You just gave birth silly," said Taichi, giving him a smile.

"Oh yeah," said Koushiro. He was still very weak and couldn't get up.

"Sorry we didn't get all the work done today because of my little incident," Koushiro said.

"Don't worry about it," Taichi smiled.

"I think I have all the research I need though all i have to do is study it now," said Koushiro.

"That's great!" said Taichi.

"Lets just hope I can find a cure before you give birth," said Koushiro.

"I know you can, I believe in you," said Taichi, encouragingly. Taichi then, with a lot of struggling, Carried Koushiro up to his room and tucked him in bed and he carried the crib and the baby up too.

"I can handle it from here, Taichi" Koushiro said weakly.

"Are you sure?" Taichi asked and Koushiro nodded back, "okay then."

"Taichi, Thanks for everything you did today," said Koushiro.

"No problem," said Taichi but he stayed just incase anything happened. He couldn't let anything happen to his friend. Plus now he wasn't so afraid of giving birth anymore.
