[Authors Note] Hi guys! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and I wish you the best for the new year! I decided to upload early, because I was so excited for this chapter so I hope you enjoy it!
[1 MONTH AFTER THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER, MINNA IS 12 WEEKS PREGNANT]
"Mio?"
Mio glanced over the darkened room at her girlfriend, who was stood in front of the full body mirror, looking down at herself. Minna was half dressed, with a plain white shirt around her torso, with the buttons undone all the way down. She did have her pants on however.
"I'm fat."
With those words Minna burst into tears before clutching her slightly swollen stomach and dropping to the floor.
Mio jumped up from the bed and approached her upset girlfriend.
"No you're not!" The Fuso solider protested, wrapping her arms lightly around Minna. While the redhead cried into Mio's arms, the black haired witch kissed her on the cheek, forehead and then nose.
"You're beautiful, you see this?" Mio slowly slid her warm hand down Minna's front, sliding past her enlarged chest, and down her belly. Minna ceased crying and watched where Mio's hands caressed.
"This is ours." Mio leant down and kissed Minna's small bump; her child.
With a blush on her face and hesitating hands, Mio slid her hands around Minna's waist and up her back, pulling her lover into an embrace. They stated liked that for moment, just trying to make the most of each other. But that only lasted a moment, before Mio's lust took over and she placed a finger under Minna's chin and joined their lips together. They remained under the heat of the moment for as long as possible.
Their embrace was getting stuffy; the arousal between them was hot, and emitted off both girls in waves. Yet they still did not break the kiss. Minna's hands grasped Mio's hanten and pulled it down, exposing her pale shoulders and the ultimate prize; Mio's breasts.
It was then that their kiss was broken, but they paused for a second before continuing, just staring into each other's lust riddled eyes.
"...Minna..." The major whispered the others name, leaning back in. But this time instead of going the lips, Mio's mouth went to Minna's neck. Mio could feel Minna's breathing become faster and she sucked and bit the redhead's neck. The black haired witch bit down and sucked as hard as she could, wanting to leave a mark but forgetting that they would need to show their faces later that day.
Minna tried looked down at the girl attached to her neck, but of course her view was blocked. So with clumsy hands Minna reached forward and tried to find Mio's breasts. She heard a soft moan rumble through Mio as she felt her breasts being massaged and pinched by the girl she loved. Minna fondled Mio's breasts to her hearts content. Or she would have done, but a shout at the door of their bedroom jolted the couple out of their comfort zone. Mio leapt away from Minna, and passed her girlfriend the covers to hide her body with.
"I'm coming!" Mio shouted, walking to the door stark naked. She opened it a crack, just enough to see out. Unfortunately, it was just enough so the visitor had a good view of her body.
"Ahhhh S-S-S-Sakamoto-San!" Miyafuji squealed, trying to avert her eyes from the toned body of the major. Being as shallow as she was, Mio failed to notice the reason for Yoshika's red face.
"Ah! Miyafuji! Egar to resume your training!" Mio laughed her loud laugh.
"Eto, Sakamoto-San, I'm actually here to check Commander Minna." Yoshika said awkwardly, definitely not wanting a train session from hell. Mio looked slightly disappointed at the rejection of training.
"I see,"
"Please send her down to the infirmary wing when you're ready..."
"Can I come?"
"Sure! If Commander Minna wishes you to, I'll see you down there." Yoshika ripped her gaze away from the majors body, and tried to keep the blood in her nose as she staggered down the hallway. Mio scratched her head in confusion and shut the door behind her. She felt her mouth automatically twitch into a goofy smile as she saw Minna stood behind her, leaning forwards.
"Mioooooo~~~" Minna sing songed gently into her girlfriends ear. With a swift delivery of love to the lips, Mio turned towards her wardrobe and began digging aground for her white jacket and bathing suit. With her head in the wardrobe she called to Minna;
"Put something on, we need to go for your check with Miyafuji."
In response, Minna flopped down on the with a huff. Mio peeked round the door.
"Nothing fits." Minna wined, and her white shirt was tossed across the room. From amorous and erotic to childish and moody, Minna had changed moods quick, whereas Mio still had her mind in the gutter.
"And this bra is too tight," There was the sound of tight elastic snapping as the black bra was sent flying through the air.
Mio pulled her jacket on and approached her girlfriend, in her arms was a large black hoodie.
"It's okay see? Put this on, and we can go shopping later and get you some new things." Mio smiled, and handed her hoodie to Minna. The black haired witch then proceeded to tie her shoes. Once they were tied, she stood back up, expecting Minna to be ready. Instead the redhead had her face pressed into the black hoodie. Mio smiled slightly.
"It smells of you," Minna sighed happily. Mio chuckled and took the matter into her own hands. She pulled the hoodie over Minna's head, and down her curvy body, brushing against the soft breasts slightly as she did so.
As the couple started to leave, Minna tugged on Mio's sleeve.
"Hold my hand?"
"Of course,"
And with that, they set off the the medical wing, hand in hand.
[LINEBREAK]
Mio gulped anxiously as Yoshika spread the gel across Minna's lower stomach. She was quite nervous about the baby, and although she hadn't said anything, she was also worried. But, as Minna had a steady smile on her face, Mio put on on too and clasped Minna's warm hand tightly.
"Ready Commander Minna?" Yoshika asked flexing her fingers in the way she usually would to grope Lynne. Minna nodded.
As Yoshika lowered her hands the tension in the room rose. Mio leaned forward onto the edge of the wooden stool she had been sat on.
Minna breathed in.
There was a bang as the door slammed open. Minna hurriedly pulled the towel up to cover her breasts. Yoshika had made her take off the hoodie for the check, for it would've been in the way, and instead she had been given a towel to cover her upper body. In surprise Mio had jumped up and knocked the stool over when the peace had been disrupted.
The disruption was Eila. Mio stood defensively in front of Minna, with one hand on her shoulder, but Eila didn't seem to be looking at the other three at all. Her mind was occupied with another task.
"Eila-San? It did say on the door that-" Yoshika was cut off and Eila walked straight past her and began to open the cupboards and dig around in the supplies.
"Oi! Eila! We're in the middle of something!" Mio started her walk over to the blonde. Eila didn't seem to be paying much attention. In fact Eila had seemed very distracted recently, even in battle, her mind seemed to be elsewhere.
With a firm hand on her shoulder, Eila was snapped back into the real world.
"Eh?" She shot the major a questioning look.
"We're busy Eila, you need to learn to knock." Mio told her in a blunt voice, but at the same time she was curious. Eila looked away from the others and tried to get back into the cupboard to find what she was looking for.
"Sorry. Just give me a minute."
In less than thirty seconds later she emerged with a bottle, and a packet of pills. Yoshika gave them a suspicious look.
"What's wrong Eila-San? Are you sick?" The young fusan asked. There didn't seemed to be anything wrong with Eila, besides the fact she seemed incredibly distracted, and a little tired.
"It's nothing." Eila tried to escape from the awkward atmosphere by leaving the room, but she found her route blocked.
"Is it Sanya-chan? Is she ill?" Yoshika asked carefully, in a caring tone of voice. With a slight hesitation, Eila nodded. "Once I've done this I can come and-"
"No! She's fine. Just leave her. I'll do her patrol tonight, please just let me out."
To Eila's surprise, the Major stepped aside and let her leave. She dashed out of the room before anyone could change their mind.
Mio just stood looking at the door thoughtfully.
"Well that was weird." Yoshika stated, Minna nodded in agreement. "Let's continue shall we?"
Everybody settled back into their previous positions. Mio was had a little more of her butt on the stool this time, and Yoshika seemed more focused.
"Are you ready now?" Yoshika asked Minna, who nodded. Gently, Yoshika lowered her hands so they remained an inch above Minna's skin. Blue auras appeared as the young witch called upon her familiar. For a minute, Yoshika stayed in this position, her facial expressions changed from a frown to a smile in seconds. Mio brought her hand up so she could hold her girlfriends hand for comfort.
When Yoshika's ears and tail disappeared, she turned to the anxious couple.
"Congratulations Commander, Sakamoto-San! Your baby appears to be healthy!" Yoshika exclaimed excitedly. Minna breathed a sigh of happiness and her eyes lit up. She was really excited about the child, and Mio could tell. With each passing day Minna would talk about it more and more. Mio too was excited, but she was also very scared. She feared for Minna's health, especially because of her back, so things would be difficult if her back started to get really bad.
"I'll give you some wipes so we can get this off," Yoshika signalled to the gel, "And then we can get on with the day."
Yoshika pulled some large paper towels off the side and handed them to Mio. Miyafuji didn't want to invade the couples privacy by touching Minna while Mio was there, so it was just easier if Mio did it.
"Actually, can you go and tell the others we want to call a meeting?" Minna asked. Miyafuji nodded.
"Anything else you need, Commander Minna?"
Minna gave a sideways glance and blushed a little.
"...well... Actually, there is one thing that I need..."
[LINEBREAK]
They were on their way. The warning level had be conveniently low, so Mio and Minna had decided to take their little trip. Only, they had two surprising guests with them.
Sanya and Eila.
The quiet couple had requested to come along with them after the meeting. The two didn't get off base very often, because of awkward sleeping patterns, so Minna agreed for them to go, hoping that they would enjoy the change of scenery and fresh air.
Eila had agreed to drive on the way there, with Sanya sat up in the form next to her, seemingly more alert than usual. Sanya hummed softly to herself.
Every now and then, Eila would give Sanya a quick glance, or remove her hand from the wheel just long enough to touch her girlfriends hand. Sanya liked this, although it put them all at risk, but Eila knew what she was doing.
Mio had originally wanted Minna up in the front sat upright in a proper seat because of her back. Minna had insisted she was fine and would happily sit in the back so Sanya could be with Eila. The older couple were just enjoying the quality time together as they drove across the bridge joining their little island to Britannia. It was a pleasant journey. Each couple respected and understood each other's privacy, as the four were often left alone together in the early mornings when Sanya returned from her patrol.
Minna had always been an early riser. Her morning routine would include her preparing herself for the day, then retreating to the common room for a round of toast just to keep her going until breakfast was served. The commander had quickly learned that if she timed her ritual just right, she would meet Mio coming back in from training. The two grew used to this arrangement and synced their routines. Sometimes Minna would warm Mio's rice as well as her own toast, Mio would pour Minna's coffee along with her tea. The roles were easily reversible.
The younger couple had also grown used to the morning routine. Eila had started to wake herself earlier so she could get up and wait for Sanya. Eila would walk in just in time for tea, so Mio would make four cups instead of two, and not long later Sanya would stumble in. Most of the time they would sit down in silence even after the tea was drunk, but if Sanya was wet from the rain Eila would make them retreat to their room a little earlier than usual. But in general, the two couples enjoyed each other's company.
It wasn't long before the jeep arrived in the busy Brittanian town. Eila was a bit of a rage driver when it came to towns, honking the horn when people held her up, but even though Mio offered to take the wheel, she refused. But having Eila as a driver was helpful; she could see accidents in the future and prevent them. Legally, Eila wasn't really of the driving age, but she claimed if she can defend the world against aliens, she can drive a truck into a town. Eila pulled up on the side of the road, right in front of a hardware store.
"I'm not sure what you need, but there's plenty of shops around here so you should be able to find most of it. Lynne told me about this place." Eila stated, pulling the key from the ignition. This movement brought the trucks gentle, humming engine to a stop.
"Me and Sanya need to go and... And..."
The Orussian interrupted when Eila struggled to come up with an excuse, "Pick up some things,"
"Yeah! We'll meet you back here in an hour, then we can come with you and help you carry what you need." Before confirmation of the request, Eila tugged Sanya's sleeve and the two headed down the street together. Mio scratched her cheek just under her eyepatch.
"There's definitely something going on between them." Minna stated as Mio gave her a hand down. "They are being being incredibly secretive ,"
Mio hadn't noticed this until Minna pointed it out.
"You're right. But lets get on with getting you some new clothes."
With linked arms the two set off down the busy street, Sanya and Eila had already disappeared into the hustling crowds, and there appeared to be no hope of finding the two, so the older couple minded their own business.
The hour passed a little quicker than the couples had intended. Sanya and Eila had barely wrapped up their business, and Minna still needed some new bras. But they all met back up anyway. Surprisingly, Eila nor Sanya were holding any bags or purchases, which brought up a question.
"What did you two do?" Mio asked curiously. Eila almost choked on her air. She hadn't expected them to ask so suddenly, she hadn't an excuse to say yet. So Sanya made the decision.
"Love hotel." She said casually. This time Eila actually choked on her air before hastily agreeing. Mio looked taken aback at the comment while Minna blushed uncontrollably. After a few minutes of awkwardness between the four, Minna spoke up.
"Ermmm... Next time you don't have to say. We won't ask again."
Sanya nodded but Eila was still very red in the face.
"Anyway let's get the stuff on this list."
[LINEBREAK]
Mio smiled at her sleeping girlfriend next to her as she turned another corner. The four witches had spent the entire afternoon shopping, buying different things for different people. Yoshika had asked for some strange ingredients and herbs, which had been a struggle to find but they got there in the end. Lynne wanted some new stockings exactly the same as her old ones, for hers were full of ladders and the final pair had been stained when Yoshika dropped her curry down them.
Gertrud had again wanted something for Chris. Her younger sister was making a recovery faster than anticipated, so as the responsible older sister she was, Trude wanted to get her gift. Shirley had had asked for a new dildo. An offer Minna wasn't inclined to take on. The Liberian was just joking, but Mio had taken her offer quiet seriously and had them venture into a sex toy shop. Being underage, Sanya and Eila had to wait outside, both of them seemed slightly disappointed.
Minna tried to avert her gaze from everything on display and instead focused her eyes on the floor in front of her. Mio however, had made the most of the shop. Secretly, the fusan wanted something for herself. Her sex drive was as high as ever and since Minna still hadn't made love with her, she was getting restless.
Mio didn't want to force her girlfriend into sex, but the feeling was getting unbearable. The older couple would start a make out session, and get super into it. Unfortunately for them, subordinates with problems and the neuroi's bad timing had prevented any real intimate act between them. By the time they had sorted whatever had interrupted them out, Minna had lost the mood and didn't want to continue. Mio had found time to speak to Shirley about it, since the busty girl too had a high sex drive. Shirley was incredibly open with most things about herself, her impressive chest was her pride and glory and loved to flaunt it at any chance she had. Naturally she had been the best one to talk to. She also swore to secrecy, but Mio wasn't sure how long that would last.
Perrine had only wanted some seeds for her flowers, and Erica and Lucchini just wanted sweets.
Mio looked up into the rear view mirror and had a little look at the couple asleep in the back. It was a little hard to see but Mio could just about make out Sanya lay across Eila's lap. The Suomi had her eyes shut and her arms resting around Sanya. Mio used her eye to see a little clearer, but she wished she hadn't. Both of the younger girls looked unhappy as they slept, frowning as such.
But the major shook it off. They were nearly at the base. Lights could be seen illuminating the base, making it stand out from the dark sea around it.
"Major?" Eila spoke up from the back. Her voice wasn't too loud, wasn't too quiet, but nonetheless it made the Fuso witch jump.
"Yes Eila?"
The Suomi yawned before continuing.
"Are you going to marry Minna? After all; its your child she's pregnant with."
Eila shifted her position slightly, but not enough to disturb Sanya.
Mio remained silent for a bit.
" I would love to. But our lives are just too busy right now, the war is raging. There's no time for romance."
Mio bit her lip as she said that, and Eila looked down at Sanya with a guilty conscience.
"Eila, I hope you don't mind me asking, but where were you really before? If it were a love hotel, you finished up awfully quick," Mio stated, trying to fend off the blush that wanted to inhabit her face. Eila went quiet.
"You'll find out eventually." Eila murmured, stroking Sanya's head.
Suddenly without any warning, Eila jumped up and leaned over Mio. The Suomi grabbed the wheel and swerved the truck to the side, avoiding hitting a large tree in the middle of the road. Mio pulled on the breaks, nearly sending Eila through the windscreen. The impact of getting thrown of Eila in a hurry had woken Sanya. Minna woke when the breaks were pulled and Eila fell on top of her. Mio hurriedly pushed the younger witch off her girlfriend; she didn't want Minna injured in any way.
"What is that?" Sanya asked quietly.
"Minna, Sanya, wait here." Mio pulled her katana out of its scabbard next to her on the seat. "Eila come with me." Eila gave Sanya a weary look before climbing out of the truck.
"I'll try and call the base," Minna said, reaching forward to the radio. Due to an unfortunate accident, the radio was gone. It took Minna a while to realise this.
"I think the radio is gone Commander Minna." Sanya stated. Minna looked down.
"Where on earth could it be?"
The two pondered until Minna noticed something usual about where the radio was usually kept. Four long gashes ran down the interior of the car. Minna had seen this somewhere before.
"Ahhh." The redhead leaned back in defeat, " Trude's work I presume."
Outside the truck, Eila hadn't predicated anything as of yet, and stood guard while Mio checked the tree. It seemed as it had simply fallen over. No burn marks that indicated a red laser had fired. No damage to the tree other than the snapped trunk. With an annoyed sigh Mio stood back up and gestured for Eila to get back in.
"I'll call up the maintenance tomorrow and get them to move it," the major said to the three girls.
"Anyway, we're nearly home."
Minna smiled and watched as the illuminated base drew near.
"Yeah."
