A/N: I realize I have been a bad author of this story by ignoring it because I've been working on my NaNoWriMo story, though I did finish it earlier than I had planned. So, I'll start writing this story again. But I also hope you like the chapter!
Nepeta opened her eyes, looking up at the ceiling of the hospital. She glanced around for a moment, letting out a soft sigh before slowly sitting up. Through the closed doors, she could hear muffled words, the word "pregnant" only barely intelligible. She glanced to the side to see Karkat curled up on the bench-bed under the window, shaking her head.
"Hey, Karkat..." She glanced over her shoulder, throwing a pillow at him after a moment. She couldn't see how Karkat could sleep through all the arguing, which was giving her a headache.
"Oh my god Gamzee, I was sleeping. God, if you wanted me to move over you didn't have to throw a pillow in my fucking face." Karkat mumbled, rubbing his head as he sat up, glancing around. "Oh shit, Nepeta. Oh shit, you're awake..."
Nepeta scowled at him, chucking the second pillow at his face. "So you and Gamzee share a bed now?" Nepeta asked brightly, smirking.
"I never...it's been a few days since you fell. Hit your head." Karkat said, wincing as he heard Meulin screech at Jake. "And they've been at it constantly. God, that woman really hates your husband, doesn't she?"
"Well, he did get get me pregnant. But he did also propose right after we found out...of course I never did tell her. It's more of a mutual hate of our relationship that she hates, not Jake." Nepeta mused, glancing towards the door. "So tell me...how is sleeping with Gamzee going for you?"
Karkat blushed faintly, crossing his arms. "You have been knocked out for two days and one of the first things you ask me about is why I'm sleeping with Gamzee?"
"No, I asked how sleeping with Gamzee was going for you...but Terezi kicked you out and you needed somewhere to go. I suppose Gamzee opened his arms-and bed-quite quickly for you." Nepeta giggled.
"Oh my god! If I wanted a talk like that, I would have told Terezi and got her to yell at me more! I did not come here to talk about my sex life-" Karkat started.
"Sex life? So you really do enjoy sleeping with Gamzee? Ha! I figured as much!" Nepeta squealed, clapping her hands and bouncing slightly on the bed, pulling at the stitches and grimacing as she pressed a hand to the wound, trying to mask her pain.
"Oh shit, we are not talking about my sex life while you are in the hospital." Karkat groaned, glancing up as the door opened.
Jake stumbled slightly as he heard those words, Meulin having stopped in the doorway. "Well then..." She muttered, stalking off to her chair and glowering at Jake.
"I think...Gamzee is here to get me...probably not but..." Karkat slowly backed out of the room, passing Jake as the other walked in.
"Not something to discuss in a public space." Jake agreed, Karkat turning and fleeing down the hall.
"I know, she brought it up." Karkat mumbled, fleeing down the hall.
Nepeta shook her head, yawning. "What were you guys arguing about this time? It can't have been good, I heard you all the way in here and you were out of the room. Karkat didn't want to say anything about it either."
"We were discussing your health, that is all." Meulin said, crossing her arms as she glowered at Jake. "And certain...things...that may or may not make me extremely happy."
Nepeta frowned slightly, watching her mother before glancing at Jake. "What happened?" She asked quietly, glancing away at them. "I mean, I know you don't like him mom, but it can't be that bad, right?"
"You managed to stab yourself with a knife because you tripped and fell. Not to mention the fact that you also knocked yourself unconscious in the proccess. I just want you to not get hurt, okay?" Meulin sighed, turning a very disapproving look on Jake. And of course, there is the fact that you may be pregnant again." She muttered under her breath.
"That should be good news, not bad." Nepeta said with a frown, crossing her arms as she watched her mother. "I think I actually like that news. I mean..." She trailed off, glancing over at Jake.
"I think it's good news also." Jake stated, crossing his arms. "Your mother on the other hand, feels like arguing with me all the time about it. What are your thoughts on it?"
"I like it and I think that it's a good thing." Nepeta stated, glancing over at her mother. "But do either of you know when I can leave the hospital?"
"They said the wound is healing rather nicely, so probably sometime soon." Meulin and Jake said at the same time, giving each other a glare.
Nepeta sat back, watching them before looking out the window. She had thought she had seen someone that the knew, someone that reminded her of... She glanced away from the window, thinking about her friend and wondering when the last time she had thought about him had been.
"Are you okay?" Jake asked with a frown, glancing at Nepeta for a moment, seeming to notice how distracted she was.
"I thought I had seen someone I knew. It wasn't anything though." She said with a shrug, laying back on the bed and closing her eyes, suddenly tired as she listened to Meulin quietly yell at Jake, not wanting to deal with them and their arguing.
