Chapter 7: New Room, New Found Love
'Hmm… that Natsume! He didn't wake me up! I didn't feed the baby on time.' Mikan thought while feeding the baby. It was already past 9 and she's supposed to feed the baby at 8 in the morning.
"Anyway baby, where do you want to go today?" she said to the baby.
"Oh I know. We'll go to Hotaru, ok?"
"Hehe…"
"Ok. Wait for me in your crib. I'll just change my clothes." She said as she placed the baby on the crib.

Knock. Knock. Knock.
"Come in." A voice said from the other side of the door.
"Ohayo, Hotaru!" Mikan greeted her best friend as she entered her laboratory.
"What are you doing here? And why did you bring that baby? It's dangerous here and you're a danger here."
"Mou… I just want to greet you…is that so bad?"
"Mochiron." Hotaru replied as she resumed with what she's doing.
"Waah…Hotaru you're so mean!" Mikan wailed.
"Shut up! You're worse than the baby." Hotaru said frigidly.
"But we just want to greet you. Then you…" she said, wailing more.
"Fine! Alright! But not here, it's dangerous for the baby. Let's go to my room." She said as she arranged her things.
"What room? Your "your" room or your "you and Ruka's" room?" Mikan asked playfully although she tried sound innocent.
"Whatever. Do you want to come or not?" Hotaru asked.
"Ii desu yo!"

"Wow! Your room is big Hotaru." Mikan said in awe.
Isn't it baby?" She said to the baby.
"Aha…ah…"
"Baka! It's just the same as yours. And your room is just next door." Hotaru said very irritated.
"But it's still different Hotaru. I want to stay with you in this room. Not with Natsume, he's mean." She said.
"Nothing in particular, oh, have you already given your baby a name." Mikan asked.
"Iie. Not yet."
"Well, me too. I find it hard to name a baby boy. Your baby is a boy too, right? What would you name him?" Mikan asked.
"I don't know."
"I know. Let's combine names ne, Hotaru." Mikan said excitedly.
"Why not yours and Natsume's name?"
"Demo…"
"You're his caretakers, right?"
"Ok as long as you name your baby by combining yours and Ruka's name."
"Tondemo nai!"
"Ne, yakusoku shite kudasai, Hotaru."
"Fine!"
"Yipee! You heard that baby. You're going to have a name!" she said to the baby.

"Why did you bring that with you, Ruka?"
Natsume asked his best friend, upon seeing him approaching.
"Well, Hotaru said that she'll be in her lab and I think the baby needs some fresh air."
Ruka said as he sat down beside Natsume, under his favorite sakura tree.
"Tch…" he said as he closed his eyes and leaned on the trunk.
"Anyway, how is it like spending the night with Mikan?"
"It was drastic. I can't sleep. She's too noisy and so is the baby. How about you, how is it like sleeping in one room with the "girl of your dreams"?" he asked Ruka with a playful tone on his voice.
"Hark who's talking? As if Mikan is not your "dream girl"."
"Whatever. Just answer my question."
"Well we fought and she completely ignored me. I can't do anything."
"Huh…lucky you. No noise."
"You can say that because you're not there. It was really awkward. By the way, what would you name the baby."
"I don't know. I'm not good at those."
"Me too. Maybe we'll just let the girls do that."
"Whatever."

"Konbanwa, Natsume. Where have you been?" Mikan asked when Natsume entered their room.
"You don't need to know, little girl."
"Hmm…meanie. By the way, I've figured out a way to name the babies. It's by combining our names to form a new name."
Natsume who was drinking almost choked.
"Cough…ugh…ugh…ahem."
"Natsume are you alright?" Mikan asked.
"Yeah, what did you say?" he said upon regaining his composure.
"Well I thought that we'll just combine our names to form a new name for the baby."
"And…"
And, what?"
"What do you have in mind?"
"Oh, I think Kame would be nice."
"Kame?"
"Hai. Suki desu ka?"
"Whatever."
"Ok so from now on, our baby's name will be Kame."

"Um… Hotaru can I ask you some thing?" Ruka said as he placed the sleeping baby on the crib.
"…"
"Well, I was just thinking, what should we name the baby?" he said while watching her.
Hotaru who was busy with her plan for her next invention didn't hear what Ruka was saying.
"Hotaru?"
Scratch…scratch…
"Hotaru?" he said as he tapped her shoulder.
"What is it?" she asked looking at him.
"I was just saying, what should we name the baby?"
"What?" she accidentally broke the lead of her mechanical pencil.
"Is there something wrong with what I said?"
"Nothing, name him Taka." She said and with that she carried on with what she's doing.
"Why, Taka?"
"Don't ask. You want a name I gave you one, no problem."
"Well, alright. His name will be Taka."
