This is an extremaly short chapter, my shortist to be honest, but it is very important. But so you are not too disappointed at the shortness, I will upload the next chapter later today. Enjoy and review please.
This was bad. I knew something was wrong but this shouldn't of happened. 'How will I tell him? Maybe I should check again. No, I've checked twice already, with a 99% chance of being right, I doubt they were both wrong. We've never discussed about this, what if he doesn't want it?' I sat on the bathroom floor, rechecking the device, incase my eyes were playing tricks on me. But each time I checked, it stayed the same, saying the same thing; 'I'm pregnant!'
I quickly walked towards the Kuchiki manor, 'What if he doesn't want a baby? I can't raise a child on my own!'
"Welcome back, April-sama!" The guard greeted before letting me through. I hurried past, ignoring everyone, I had to find him.
"April-chan." I was blocked, "I was just coming to find you, something's happened to nii-sama." My heart sank, "Where is he, Rukia?"
She lead me to Unohana's recovery center, my heart sank lower and lower with each step I took. 'What's happened to him?' Finally, Rukia entered a small room, letting me follow behind. I saw him. He was laying on the sick bed, covered in wounds. I felt physically sick. No longer did his face show the beauty of a god, but covered in so many cuts, he became un-reconisable. He was hooked onto an oxygen tank and the drip. Blood was oozing out of many cuts and scars over his arms and legs, even his torso. His abs were not visable under the blood soaked bandages. I held back the vomit as he turned towards me, looking me straight in the eyes. The only thing that told me this was my Byakuya was his graceful stromy eyes.
"Byakuya-chan," I sat by his side and held his blood covered bandaged hand, "What happened?"
"I'm afraid he can't talk, Lily-chan." Unohana entered the small room, carrying a bowl full of hot water and a cloth. She stood behind me. I didn't turn my gaze away from my love.
"They cut his throat, effecting his vocal chords. They should heal in a few weeks." She walked around to the other side and examined his wounds, cleaning the blood away from his face.
"Who attacked him? What happened since I was gone?"
"Soi fon and Mayuri had lost control of the modified souls, their rebellion is now of choice. Since Mayuri had changed them to be strong enough to hold you, they are mostly stronger than us captains. They threaten the soul society." She turned her attenion to me, holding a sad gaze with her beautiful blue eyes towards my dark hazel ones.
"It's all my fault. If I had told everyone, instead of being so selfish, none of this would of happened." Byakuya squeezed my hand and gave me a look of reasurrence. I picked it up and kissed it tenderly.
"Don't blame yourself, you wern't being selfish, you had all right to hold a secret like that." Rukia spoke for her brother.
"But I only held the secret to stop everyone getting hurt." I argued slightly. Rukia placed her comforting hand on my sholder.
"It isn't your fault." She repeated. I gave her a half hearted smile before returning to Byakuya. His eyes stayed at my gaze before slowly closing.
"He needs to rest, Lily-chan."
"I'm not leaving his side." They didn't bother to argue, instead, they both left. I watched him silently follow the breathing rhythm of the oxygen mask as he slept. 'I should wait until he's better before telling him.'
A baby and Byakuya's in the hospital... don't I torcher her alot? Anyway, review please and look out for the next chapter later today!
