Month Eight

Akito's point of View

"SURPRISE!"

"AHHHHHHHHHH! BURGLAR'S!" I screamed, jumping up and pulling a skud missile out of my purse and shooting the first three things I saw move.

"AHHHH!" Ha, it was there turn to scream. Actually I really knew this was my family, not burglars, but I wanted to hurt someone and this was the perfect excuse. Of course the lights were still on, but...

"AKITO-SAMA! You just shot Rin, Ren and Kagura!"

"Skin the boar I want bacon!"

"U-uh, h-how about I go get some b-bacon from the f-fridge instead...?" Tohru suggested nervously.

"HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA! REN IS LYING ON THE GROUND, REN IS LYING ON THE GROUND! AND THE HORSE IS TO!" I hope they are in pain...

"..."

"Well, since you were to busy before, we decided to throw you a baby shower now!" It was true all the girls were here, except Ayame and Ritsu.

"ALL I WANT IS BACON!"

"H-here you go, Akito-sama." Tohru handed me the delicious plate of bacon, it was...

"RAWR!" I screamed and shoved my face into the plate of bacon gobbling it up. "Thank you, Tohru."

"Let's open gifts now..." Hana stated. Why were Tohru's friends here? Oh, right they were dating MY family, growl!

"Here's the one from me..." Tohru handed me a small package covered in blue paper and images of printed rubber ducks.

"I despise ducks, unless they have been baked in an oven..." It was more of a thought then anything else.

"You on crack?" The stupid yankee asked.

"NO!" I screamed ripping of the paper to reveal powder blue blankets. I stopped. They were soft and small, and little images of puppy's running across the bottom. A small smile danced across my lips.

"Thank you." I cooed, without realizing it, but I felt the others also fall in sync with me. Kisa handed me her gift, which I accepted with a smile. Inside this were an assortment of powders and lotions and soaps for the child's bath along with a couple other small toys. From Arisa I received small dolls for the child, from Hana I was given little towels for after his bath, Kagura provided little books to be read, from Rin baby bottles, and from my idiotic Mother a dead skunk to hang from the ceiling of the nursery.

"Thank you!" And in the end I had to admit, that was fun and I was looking forward to raising this child - well, more then I already was.

And so month eight continues in no peace whatsoever, shall peace come in month nine? Is peace even possible for a Sohma?
