Love Like No Other 13:
*I do not own Ouran High School Host Club. Thank you very much, cause without you this story might not be as good as it is.
Kyoya's POV - A Year Later
I woke up in the morning in complete bliss as I turned over and wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her closer to me as she slept a little longer. Haruhi and I had been married for a year now and our marriage was fantastic. I loved being married to her and didn't think I would ever get enough of it. Over the past year, we never lost our friends. Together we did something with all of the original club members once a month; and it seemed like they would make impromptu visits ever week on top of that. We were happy.
It seemed that my wife and I were never far away from each other unless we were at the office. We came straight home, although we both worked long hours, we always made sure we set aside plenty of time for each other.
A couple of months ago, Haruhi and Mori finally opened their own law firm. It was a slow process and the business was still growing, but I knew they would be a success. They already have the rest of the hosts as clients. My work was also going well and I was proud of everything I was accomplishing.
Today was our one year anniversary and we had both decided to take the day off and spend it together. Moving her now long hair out of the way, I started nuzzling her neck and plying kisses to the ivory skin in an attempt to wake her up. It worked and soon, she was rolling over and smiling at me. Giving into a small yawn, she probed, "Good Morning Shadow King, I trust you slept well."
"I always am able to sleep great when I have you to hold in my sleep, pleasant Shadow Queen." She laughed quietly as she pressed her lips to mine quickly before getting up out of bed. If the others could see me now, they would not believe it, but I pouted, "Haruhi, where are you going?"
"To take a shower, you could join me if you like," she smirked and I could not help but follow where she led. We spent the day together, just being together and celebrating the last year of marital bliss. I couldn't have asked for more than to have her by my side for the rest of my life. This first year was going to be the first of many.

(About Two Months Later)
Today our friends were supposed to come over, but since Haruhi had been feeling sick the last couple of days, we had to cancel. I wasn't sure what was going on with her, but she was feeling nauseous. I figured she caught a bug, but as it was the third day and she was still throwing up, I decided she needed to see the doctor.
Our regular doctor couldn't get her in that day even with me trying to threaten and pull strings, so I took her up to the hospital. Technically I couldn't be her doctor and treat her, but I could take her to the hospital I worked at to make sure she got the best care possible. After helping my wife get dressed, I got her down to the car. I just needed to make sure she was alright because it seemed as if it hit suddenly and wasn't letting up any time soon. We walked into the waiting room of the ER and were greeted by nurse working triage. I knew her as she had been working for the hospital since it opened. She glanced up and saw me standing there,
"Hello Dr. Ootori. Is there anything I can help you with?" She was always friendly and reminded me of a kind grandmother.
"Hello Mariko-san. My wife needs to see a doctor," I greeted politely trying not to order everyone about. Nodding, she opened the door for triage and took Haruhi's vitals as well as asked a few questions. Her blood pressure was slightly elevated, but considering she was sick, it didn't surprise me. After Mariko was done with that, she took us to a room in the back.
After a few minutes, the doctor came in, "Hello Dr. Ootori. Mrs. Ootori, I am Dr. Sakagami. How are you feeling? I heard you weren't doing too well." I could tell she was trying to focus on Haruhi and not pay too much attention to me since I was a fellow doctor and my family owned the hospital. It could put a certain pressure on a person.
"Uh, I am so-so right now, but have been very nauseous lately," Haruhi said.
The doctor nodded, "I see. Well, let's see what we can do for you. How long have you be nauseous?"
"About three days now," Haruhi replied.
"Have you been vomiting? Diarrhea?"
"Yes to the vomiting and no to the diarrhea."
"Fever, chills, achiness?"
"I haven't really been running fever. I have been a little chilled, but I have always been like that. A little achiness."
"Any other symptoms?"
I stepped into the conversation, "Yes, she was a little lightheaded yesterday. I believe she might be dehydrated as well."
The doctor looked at me, and then turned to Haruhi, "I see that your last cycle was a month ago. When are you scheduled to start?"
"I am a little irregular, but it should be any day now," my wife replied. "Ok, let me do an initial examination and then we will get you on an IV drip to get some fluids back in you. I also want to draw some blood and get a urine sample. I will get some Zofran ordered, that will help with the nausea and vomiting, and we will go from there. Ok?" Dr. Sakagami spoke softly. Haruhi and I both nodded and the doctor began the exam.
Haruhi's stomach was tender, but she seemed to be fine other than that. Once the doctor left, Haruhi turned on her side and clutched my hand. It was hard to see her suffer. The nurse came in shortly after and inserted the catheter for her vein in order to draw blood and start the drip.
Once the IV was going, she injected the Zofran into the IV and sent Haruhi to the bathroom to pee into the cup.
Haruhi's POV
It had been a little over an hour since we had been here hospital and I was grateful that the medicine had started working. I felt a lot better now. I couldn't figure out how or why I got so sick. Kyoya was sitting next to my bed holding my hand as I lay there trying not to move. With the fluids back in my system along with the meds though, I didn't feel like I was dying any longer.
Soon Dr. Sakagami came back in the room, "Mrs. Ootori, we got the test results back from the lab and good news. It is nothing serious."
"So what is wrong with me?" I asked.
"You are pregnant. Based on my calculations you are between five and six weeks, but if you are irregular it is hard to actually pinpoint how far along you are."
"I'm… what?" I could feel the room spinning as I blacked out.
Kyoya's POV
I saw Haruhi slump in the bed and I knew she had fainted, "Haruhi?"
The doctor came over to check her vitals and said, "She fainted." She grabbed a smelling salt pack out of one of the drawers and broke it open before waiving it under my wife's nose. Haruhi woke up with a jolt.
"Haruhi? Haruhi, are you alright?" I asked.
"Mrs. Ootori, you fainted. Are you alright?" The doctor shined a light into Haruhi's eyes and tested her pupils.
Haruhi looked around the room and then her eyes settled on me, "I... I think so…"
"Reactions are normal and she isn't the first person to faint when they found out they were pregnant," the doctor smiled, "Now, I want to finish that bag of fluid before I discharge you. I will get you a prescription for the Zofran and for prenatal vitamins. You will also need to follow up with your obstetrician and schedule an appointment."
When Haruhi was finally discharge, we went home and on the way, made an appointment for the next day with her OB/GYN. I could tell she was tired as soon as we walked in the door and I carried her to bed. I was still in shock from the news myself and I knew she was the same. I lay down next to her as she succumbed to sleep and pulled her close. Before I closed my eyes as well, I slowly and cautiously placed my hand on her stomach. I lightly rubbed my hand over her flat stomach and smiled. I felt her place her hand on top of mine and I kissed the back of her head before drifting off to sleep with a smile on my face.
The next day we arrived about fifteen minutes early for Haruhi's appointment. Since this was her normal doctor, she only had to sign one form before we waited for her name to be called. It wasn't long before we were in a medical room and waiting for Dr. Souma to appear.
A woman walked into the room and smiled at Haruhi, "So what brings you here today Mrs. Ootori?"
"I went to the ER and found out that I was pregnant," my wife smiled. "Here is a copy of all of the tests and such from yesterday's hospital visit," I handed the doctor a folder.
"Thank you Dr. Ootori," the obstetrician took the folder and looked at all of the results.
"Ok, I am going to require a few additional blood tests and I will go ahead and order a sonogram today too so that we can see exactly how far along you are." She asked several questions and examined Haruhi before requesting a nurse bring in the sonogram machine.
Cold gel was squeezed onto Haruhi's stomach and then the doctor rubbed a wand over the gel. Soon the screen was coming to life and there was our baby. We were both amazed and in awe as we looked at the screen. The doctor printed off a couple of the shots and handed them to us and then left us alone.
"Haruhi, how are you feeling?" I asked.
"I feel great aside from the morning sickness, but I would be lying if I didn't say I wasn't a little nervous. What about you?" She inquired.
"I am... well nervous, but I am excited at the same time. Our first baby... I love you Haruhi." We left the doctor's office shortly after scheduling the rest of Haruhi's appointments and went home. Both of us stunned about the tiny life growing in her womb.
Sunday
We had called the hosts to invite them over to tell them the news. It seemed as if the doorbell rang right on time and I chuckled quietly.
I carefully moved Haruhi off of my lap where she was sleeping and went to get the door. I smiled at that as I walked to go get the door. Slowly opening the door, I found all of our friends on the other side and seemed to be in good spirits. Shaking my head, I told them, "You need to quiet down. Haruhi is resting on the sofa." They quietly crept into the house, and sat down on the other furniture in the condo.
"Haru-Chan looks so adorable Kyo-Chan!" Honey whispered, obviously excited to be visiting. I nodded as I sat down on the cushion above Haruhi's head, and slowly I felt her move next to me. I looked down only to see Haruhi scrunch her face and turn over in her sleep.
"Well, it looks like you two are doing well," Tamaki stated, "So... may I ask you something Kyoya?" I nodded, allowing him proceed, "Is Haruhi doing better?" I could see the concern in his eyes and it mirrored the worry in the eyes of the others.
"Yes, we took her to the doctor and she got meds for the nausea," I grinned.
"What was wrong?" Mori questioned.
Shaking my head, I wasn't telling them anything, "We will wait to tell you after she gets up."
Haruhi's POV
I slowly awoke to the sound of men talking back and forth. No doubt the Host Club was here already. Why did I have to fall asleep? I slowly opened my eyes to see and feel Kyoya's hand, softly petting my hair. He looked down at me and smiled, rubbing my shoulder slightly, "Hello Haruhi, did you have a good rest?"
"Yeah," I yawned, stretching as I sat up. The hosts all smiled at me.
"Hi guys, I am so sorry I fell asleep."
"Oh, it's nothing to apologize for. You haven't been feeling well, and it's only natural that you get rest," Tamaki said reassuringly, but I could see that he wanted to know exactly what was going on. He was worried and so were the others. I nodded and looked at Kyoya. He leaned downwards placing a chaste kiss on my lips before we looked back over at our friends. Honey had moved to sit next to me and I could see the fear that something was seriously wrong with me written on his face.
"So... Haru-Chan? Is everything ok? Kyo-Chan told us that the doctors told you what was going on, but when we asked, he said he wanted to wait until you were awake. So what is going on? Is it serious?"
I sighed and nodded, taking Kyoya's hand in mine for comfort, "Well, Honey after I had been sick for a couple days, Kyoya took me to the doctor and it turns out that I am almost six weeks pregnant."
"You're pregnant!" Honey exclaimed, gently hugging me, "Congratulations Haruhi and Kyoya!"
"OH DADDY IS SO HAPPY FOR YOU!" Tamaki cried and tried to grab me, but was held back by Mori.
"Yes! Now we can convince our mother to make a maternity and baby clothes line!" Hikaru cheered as well as Kaoru, and Mori gave us his congratulations, along with his pleasant host smile.
"Thank you so much everyone. Now all we have left to tell is Ranka and my family," Kyoya stated. We were sure they would be happy and we couldn't wait to share our news.
