Hardly Free II: Seth Reeve Princeton

I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or Yu-Gi-Oh GX.

But I do own Kurai and Hikari.

Thanks Hikaru2008 for adding me to your favorites list.

Harashika: Here's the next chapter and no it is not a filler.

Chrisandersenyuki: Please find out if you can. The book was creepie.

Hikaru2008: Welcome and I hope you enjoy your stay.


Week thirteen, the baby measures 2.6 to 3.1 inches from crown to rump and weighs between 7/10th of an ounce. The head of the baby is still bigger than the body, but the rest of the body will catch up. The baby is growing rapidly these days.

The baby's face is starting to look human, with eyes moving closer together. The baby's toes and fingers are clearly separate, and ankles and wrists have formed. External genitalia are becoming visible. The baby's intestines are shifting into their proper place. (1)


I watch as the helicopter lands on the pad, my friends and I are standing here waiting to leave and go to my house. I can't wait to show them around the place. We all get on, I stay beside Chazz.

Sitting in the helicopter I watch the ocean and everything going on below us. I wonder how hectic the house is going to be when we show up. Everyone will be busy doing something, and I need to take the car to go get an ultrasound done too tomorrow.

I think I'm nervous to go home because there will be a whole bunch of people that I don't know running around trying to get everything ready for the wedding day. People I'm not used to being around, and I'm afraid I might just have a panic attack.

Chazz is reading A Deadly Game of Magic out loud again. I like hearing it, because I like to hear his voice. I'm hoping it soothes the baby as his voice soothes me. We learned a little more about Lisa, Teena, Julian, and Bo lives and what they want to be and what their parents want them to be.

We land on the pad onto the top of my father's company. We will take an elevator from the top floor to the bottom floor, leaving the Kaiba Company building and get into a limo that father sent over.

They are very busy with the wedding as it is in three days time. I can't believe it's is only three days away and my nii-san (older brother) will be a married man. He'll be like mom and dad when they have children.

I smile as we pull into the driveway. Damn, there are a lot of people here. My friends and I run into the house. I smile as the butler tells us to place our things down by the side of the door for now.

"Nah, I'll show them to their room and they can carry their things to the room they will be staying in. Did father say if couples where sharing a room or not Rolland?" I ask as I walk toward the main staircase.

"Master Seto said that couples can share a room because he knows for a fact that you will want Chazz to be with you at all times Master Jaden" bows Rolland as he follows me into the main hallway.

"Follow me guys and I'll show you to your rooms and mine" I smile as some look around the huge mansion.

"You live here Sergeant" breathes Hassleberry checking out the detail of the house.

"This place is pretty big" speaks Bastion trying to figure out how big.

"I wonder if you could get lost in here" says Blair smiling as she looks at the decorations.

"People don't get lost in here do they?" asks Syrus shaking a little bit.

"I highly doubt that" speaks Zane shrugging his shoulders.

"This place is bigger than my house" states Alexis looking as if this is nothing new to her.

"I could get lost in here trying to find my room" smiles Jesse trying to control his happiness.

"I always knew the Kaiba's mansion is the biggest mansion in all of Japan" remarks Aster looking around.

"Hmm, why would anyone need something this big is beyond me" states Axel showing up at the top of the stairs.

"I find that being able stay in such a place is a great honor for someone like me" smiles Adrian appearing beside Axel.

"Would you guys give it a rest, I'm tired of hearing you guys talk about how big this place is" speaks Chumley sighing as he steps forward as well.

"Ah come on Chumley, everything here is interesting to those who have never been in such a big place" laughs Jim showing up beside the others.

"So which rooms are you going to show us first?" asks Chazz turning to look at me.

"I'll show you guys mine first" I say walking down the west wing.

The West Wing is where my family lives. Mom and Dad's bedroom is in the west wing, Hikari has a bedroom in this wing too. Kurai lives in this wing as well and so won't Atticus once he's married to Kurai.

Although Atticus sleeps with Kurai, the night before the wedding will be the only time he won't sleep with Kurai. They do plan on moving out of the mansion, but mom doesn't want them to move out.

He says there is enough room for the two to live here and raise their children here as well. Chazz will be staying with me in my room in the West Wing as well. Mokuba even still lives in the West Wing with his wife Erin.

Chumley, Axel, Adrian, and Jim are already staying in the East Wing. The East Wing is for the guests that stay here. I know the real reason why my father says that everyone couples up together.

Oh and what is that Jaden?

Mother and Father's friends will be staying starting tomorrow night because some live far away and can't get here in time for when the wedding starts. I smile as I open the door to my room. I haven't slept in my big comfy bed in a long time.

"This is where Chazz and I will be sleeping" I say stepping aside to let them all see my room.

"Geez your room is huge Jay" states Syrus looking in.

"Chazz you can put your stuff down for now. We can unpack it all later" I say turning to leave the room.

Chazz puts his things by the door and closes it behind him. We all move down the hall a little ways.

"Since Alexis will be joining our family through her brother's marriage she gets to sleep in the West Wing as well" I state opening a door for Alexis and Zane will be sleeping for the time they are here.

"Wow Jaden this is where I'll be sleeping" speaks Alexis walking into the room.

"I will be sleeping here too" smiles Zane placing his things down by the door next to Alexis' things.

"Come on we have to go to the East Wing. The East Wing is for our guests that are not part of the family. Sorry Syrus you're not part of the family until Zane marries Alexis" I say bouncing away from the West Wing.

"I think we should know where Adrian, Axel, Chumley, and Jim are sleeping as well" speaks up Bastion.

"Adrian and Chumley are sharing a room, am I right you two?" I ask turning to look at a blushing Chumley.

"We are, and Axel and Jim are sharing a room" nods Adrian wrapping his arms around Chumley's waist.

I don't know where they are staying so I let them lead the way to their rooms. They each show the two rooms before I step up to the next room that one of my friend's couple will be staying.

"Ok so this room is for Bastion and Blair" I state opening the door and stepping aside.

I'm actually reading the names off of the papers that are posted on the doors. Blair and Bastion walk in and place their things down before walking out of the room.

"Hey Jay, will the names be up for a while that way we won't go into the wrong room" speaks up Syrus walking up next to me.

"Yeah, father says they will be staying your entire stay as it does get confusing because of all the rooms we have. This room by the way is yours and Asters" I smile pointing to the across the hall from where we are now.

I watch as Hassleberry and Jesse walk into the room they will be staying in as Aster and Syrus walk into their room. I chuckle as I hear my aunt walking up the steps with her luggage in her arms telling Rolland she'll get it.

"Aunt Serenity, I'll help you" I say walking away from my friends and Chazz.

"Now, I don't want that Jaden, you just came home" smiles Aunt Serenity as she pushes her red bangs behind her ear.

"I think you should let the boy hug you while I put our things in our room" speaks Uncle Nicholas as he walks up the steps and takes her luggage from my aunt.

"Come here Jaden" she opens her arms and I walk right into them.

I seek her comfort because she can somehow always make me feel so much better. I look over her shoulders as Nicholas ducks into their room in the West Wing. His blackish hair trailing behind him, he won't cut it and now his hair is down past his shoulders.

"How long you staying Aunt Serenity?" I ask as I pull back.

I'm so happy to see her. I don't get to see Aunt Serenity and Uncle Nicholas as much as I get to see Uncle Mokuba and Aunt Erin. Aunt Serenity doesn't live in Domino City, so we have to travel far just to see her.

"Until after the wedding of course, I'm staying until after you leave to go back to Duel Academy" she smiles turning to walk to her room to help her husband out.

I turn to look at my friends smiling sheepishly as I do so. Chazz shakes his head and walks up to me until he is standing so close I can feel his breath on my cheek. He leans down and captures my lips in a sweet kiss before pulling back to look at me.

"Now that everyone knows where they are staying how about we go look around your house. I want to see how big it is and maybe any other guests you have here" states Chazz grinning at me.

I nod my head and start down the main stair case, knowing where mother is right now. He probably has some friends over right now. I know a few will be coming to stay because they moved out of Domino City.

"Mom and dad do have a few friends that are out of town people. So they will be staying here in the East Wing with you guys. They already have their own rooms and know where they are so they won't be walking into your guy's rooms" I state walking to the lounge where mom likes to hang out.

I open the doors and I come face to face with Hina Valentine. She smiles as she wraps her arms around me.

"I've been waiting for you, why don't we run off and married tonight hmm?" she asks me her dirty blond hair bangs coming into her face.

"Miss. will you please Remove your body from around my boyfriend" drawls out Chazz.

"Chazz its ok Hina here is just playing with me she knows I'm gay" I smile turning to look at Chazz as Hina lets me go.

"Oh! So you're Chazz, I can't believe I get to meet Jaden's BF for the first time in like forever. Jaden, he is everything you said he would be and more. Hi, I'm Hina Valentine, 15 years old and I'm a friend of Jaden's" she smiles holding her hand out for Chazz to shake.

"Hina why don't you wait to introduce yourself until everyone gets a chance. This way they only have to say it once" my mom Joey says walking up behind her.

"Ok Joey" Hina speaks walking back to her parents.

"Come in and sit down I'm sure they won't bite" smiles Joey ushering my friends into the room.

"I don't know about everyone else but I may bite one or two" growls Marik looking away from the group.

"Don't mind my husband, Marik hates traveling from country to country. I'm Malik Ishtar-Atem" smiles Malik hitting Marik in the chest.

"Hehe, I'm Todd Atem the oldest, 16 years old" speaks Todd as he pushes his long silver locks out of his face.

"He's a dork, I'm Ben Atem, and I'm nine" Ben says as his blond spikes look to be a little flat.

"I'm Raven and I'm 13 years old, don't bother me" remarks Raven turning to walk away her raven black hair flowing down to her waist.

"Malik, do you want something to eat?" asks Marik turning to look at his husband.

"Not right now, besides Gwen here is sleeping" speaks Malik rubbing his swollen stomach.

"Everyone we know is pregnant, even me. I'm Tea Gardner-Valentine and you've already met my daughter Hina. I'm seven months pregnant with our baby boy Jim" chuckles Tea rubbing her swollen stomach as well.

"Mai Valentine darlings so nice to meet the next generation of duelists" winks Mai as she rubs Tea's back.

"Call me Nara, I'm 16 years old. This young man here with brownish black hair is Logan, he don't like to talk to strangers. He's nine just like Ben" speaks Nara from her spot in the far corner her blond hair barely seeable from where she is sitting with Logan.

"My other friends live in Domino city so they'll be here on the wedding day" smiles my mom Joey.

I roll my eyes as I sit down next to Chazz and snuggle into his chest, closing my eyes. I wonder where my brother Kurai is right now. I haven't seen him or Atticus since entering the house.

I do hope they are not having sex right now that would be gross. I watch my friends interact with my other friends. These friends I have had longer but I don't hang out with as often as I should.

I know one thing. Most of them that are over ten are dating someone else I know. It seems common to be dating someone you know and can trust. I sigh closing my eyes. I'm tired and I want to sleep.

"Jaden, wake up baby" whispers Chazz into my ear.

I yawn stretching my arms I look around the room. "What time is it?" I ask sitting up some.

"Dinner time Jaden, you fell asleep" smiles Chazz helping me stand up.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep on you" I mumble as he leads me out of the lounge.

"I don't mind, I enjoyed being able to watch you sleep. You are so beautiful when you sleep love" whispers Chazz helping me walk to the dining room.

We enter the dining room and at that moment I was so glad that our dining room is as huge as it is. There are so many people here, and that is not all of the people that will be coming to the wedding in three days.

My Dad Seto waves for me to join him down on his end of the table but I shake my head and sit down with my friends. I love my dad but I don't want to ignore my friends either. He smiles at me from his spot and my mom Joey winks as Chazz sits down next to me.

"How do you feel Jaden?" asks Aunt Serenity looking at me.

"Tired to be honest but I am in my fourth month so it is to be expected. I'm just glad I don't have morning sickness anymore" I answer as I start eating.

"So are you and Chazz going to have the family doctor do the ultrasound tomorrow?" asks Kurai smiling at me.

"Yeah we are. Chazz can't wait to see the baby. I don't know if I will actually stare at it. Right now all I know is I will raise the baby and love the baby, yet I can't help but feel resentment towards the baby" I sigh looking down at the table so I don't have to see anyone staring at me.

"Honey, it's normal to feel that way. You feel that since the baby's not Chazz's, you can't be a complete family yet. Don't worry once you place your eyes on the baby, you won't feel that way anymore. I know how that feels honey and it will go away" speaks my mom Joey softly.

"Thank you mom" I say standing up.

I pick up my plate and leave the room. I'm crying and I don't want anyone to see that weakness. I walk up to my room. I sit on my bed as Chazz closes the door behind him. He followed me with his food.

I smile as tears start down my face.

Stupid mood swings!

I hastily try to wipe them all away from my face as Chazz walks up to me. He pulls my hands away from my face before he wraps his arms around my waist pulling me to him. I burry my head in the crook of his neck letting the tears flow down my face.

"Ssh, it's ok Jaden. Cry all you want. Let it all out" whispers Chazz as he rubs circles on my back trying to soothe me.

After a few minutes I stop crying, I pull away slightly blushing.

"God you are so cute when you blush" whispers Chazz as he leans down and captures my lips in a sweet kiss.

Chazz pulls back letting me breathe before he places a fork full of food in front of my month, "It'll do you no good if you don't eat something."

I open my month and let him feed me. He smiles as I eat what he puts in front of my month. I guess he is worried about the babies and mine's health. I smile as he eats in between feeding me.

I yawn and stretch again. I must be really tired to still want to sleep. Another side effect of being pregnant, you get to be tired all the time. A knock on the door lets us both know someone is at my door.

"Come in" calls Chazz as he puts the plates together on the night stand.

The door opens and in steps my mother Joey and my father Seto.

"We just wanted to make sure everything is alright and that Jaden's mood swings are being handled with care" speaks my father Seto.

"Dad" I complain hiding my face in a pillow.

"I assure you Seto that I can take care of Jaden. I'll do everything within my powers to keep him happy. I will be his support for as long as he needs me" speaks Chazz softly looking at me with love in his eyes.

"Chazz" I say softly wrapping my arms around his body.

"I told you Seto that Chazz will take care of everything. I told the others that you need sleep Jaden so they'll leave you alone" states my mother Joey.

"But mom my friends, I don't want them thinking I'm abandoning them" I whisper guilty.

"Jaden honey, they know you are pregnant and need sleep. Besides they said that you shouldn't be disturbed when you are with Chazz" smiles my mom Joey turning to walk out of the room. "Goodnight you two sleep well."

"Goodnight" Chazz and I say at the same time.

"Night kiddo" smiles my father Seto leaving the room with mom.
