Sorry I'm late on the update… hope this will make it up.

''Doji,'' I acknowledged him. I wasn't happy that I had to face him but Tsubasa explained that Doji had leverage here.

''Nile, you are heavily pregnant with my client child, yes?'' Doji asked.

''Yes,'' I reply.

''And so far he has supported you with everything, right?''

''I guess,'' I respond. I mean he does pay for everything but only because Yato didn't want me out of the house.

''Nile what college did you go to?''

''I didn't go to college,'' I reply.

''Oh, but you do have your high school diploma, right?''

''I don't have that either,'' I reply. I dropped out senior year because of Yato. I suddenly felt ashamed that I don't have any of these things. Wait, I know what Doji is getting at now. My hand clench into a fist because the bastard is going to make me look like a gold-digging stupid spouse.

''What about a job?''

''No, I don't have a job but-'' Doji cut me off.

''Okay so when was the last time you had a job?''

''When I was younger I worked at Carvel,'' I reply.

''Oh, so you have a savings account right?''

''No I don't.''

''So you have been living a good life. I mean you have been supported by Yato this whole time. All the bills are taken care of and you don't need to work at all. So how are you going to support your child?''

I didn't have an answer. Tsubasa did warn me that Doji was going to fight dirty but I hadn't prepared for these kinds of questions.

''Nile you have to give an answer,'' the judge said trying to get me to say something.

I nodded,'' I don't know.''

''You don't know, huh'' he sighed,'' do you even love our baby?''

Something in me snapped,'' I do,'' I said. I bit the inside of my lip to stop the rest of the words from spilling out.

''Okay say you do, have you picked out a name?''

''Yes I have but that is none of your concern.''

''Your honor,'' Doji looked at the judge.

''I object,'' Tsubasa stood up,'' this has nothing to do with the trial. If Nile wishes to keep the name out of the papers then it is his choice.''

''I agree with Tsubasa on this one,'' the judge said,'' Doji move on.''

''Fine,'' Doji sounded angry,'' Nile have the officers been treating you right?''

''Yes they have,'' I look at Kyoya and give little smile. He smiles back, a warm smile.

''At the hospital you were hostile and asked for a lawyer. Also Officer Kyoya stopped by your home and then Ryuga did, that was when you fainted. These officers stalked you and pretty much took you hostage. How can you say they have been kind to you?''

''At the hospital I was afraid Yato would find out and that he would do something to me. As for at the house, Officer Kyoya came by for a personal matter and I invited him in. I fainted because I was stressed and ...um I was shocked by the information I was given,'' I reply.

''Officer Kyoya and you have history, correct?''

''Yes.''

''Care to elaborate?''

''I dated him back when I was younger. Right before I met Yato he moved to New York for college so we ended it,'' I say. Sure I was on oath but no one needs to know what had actually happened between the two of them.

''Nile, do you still have feelings for officer Kyoya?''

I wasn't entirely sure on that,'' I don't know.''

''What do you mean?''

''I mean, they are feelings and I am not sure if they are real,'' I try to make it sound plausible. I mean feelings are complicated and my feelings towards Kyoya are all over the place.

''So you have feelings but you're not sure if it's love?''

''Yes.''

''So these feelings can be friendly, right?''

''Yes they can.''

''But they are not. After some digging a locket was retrieved when searching through your stuff. The locket had an engraving that can't be read since it was burned but we had our analyst have a crack at it and they said the word Love in cursive along with a few lingering letters could be made out. Who gave it to you?''

''Officer and Kyoya had romantic feelings towards each other in the past so that is all the locket is. A distant feeling,'' I reply.

''So why keep it if it is the past?''

''I don't know why I kept it , I just did,'' I reply.

''Okay so you keep things. Why didn't you keep anything from the night you claim my client raped you?'' he sneered.'' Why didn't you keep your underwear or blood from that night?''

''I intended to go the hospital but Yato appeared at me door the next morning. He didn't let me go anywhere after that. I wanted to tell people but he threatened me. He said that I was his toy and that he would be the only one to love me.''

''Why was that?''

''Because I was spoiled goods,'' I scream. Tears were running down my face.'' And I believed him and decided that his words were true and there was no escape for me because I didn't deserve it.''

Doji narrowed his eyes,''My client is a hero and he serves to protect people he would never rape anyone. He would never break the law or beat and definitely not murder anyone so why are you making these accusations against the man that has given you everything. .''

I stand up,'' Oh really,'' I start to laugh sadly,'' swallow this: your client, your brave hero tied me a functioning radiator, locked me in a cramp cabinet for weeks on end, beat me with a bat, branded me like cattle, fucked me without my consent, passed me around so that his friends could fuck me, bashed my head, burned me and told me I was nothing but a toy to be used.'' I look to the floor, my bangs keeping me from looking into the crowd. My body started to tremble and I found myself hugging myself tightly. Tears were flooding their way down my face and onto the wooden stand and tile floor. ''I was convince all that was true and that's why I stayed quiet and endured everything. But my baby will not go through that. I love him so much and I know Yato would not change, he never will. If I ran he would kill us both. I wanted to give my baby away and let him be safe while I continue to be a toy. I didn't care what became of me but the baby deserves to smile and laugh not sob and cry. I want him to have a good life but Yato would end up making him into a broken play thing like me.I can't bear to let an innocent child go through that.

The room was still, no one daring to break the silence.

''How low will you swing to keep this up?'' I look up to see a smirking Doji,'' pulling at the heartstrings and hoping that they would sympathize with you.''

''You are a toy, a slut. A no good whore that lives for me. To please me, I mean what else is a failure-of-a-human good for. You know no one will ever love you now that you're spoiled, damaged goods. Not even your precious Kyoya will want anything to do with a fucking slut like you. You bend over just for me. You are mine, I own,'' I continue to breath floor is getting blurry. Suddenly a pain in my stomach shoots through my body . My body suddenly feels like lead and I fall to the ground.

''Nile''

''Nile''

''Call an ambulance''

''Order in the court. I demand order''

All i can hear is chaos as my eyes remain open but my body is still. I can see Kyoya and Tsubasa in front of me. Their mouths are opening but I can't hear what they are saying. I can't even stay focused on what their expressions are. What I can see is that Kyoya has blood on his hand and it must be mine. I had a tantrum relapse thing and now my baby is in danger. My baby isn't even 8 months old, there is a low percentage of survival.

My vision goes dark

….SWITCHED POV…..

''Kyoya,'' Tsubasa told me. I didn't need him to tell me anything. I got up and ran to my fallen friend. The entire court was out of control. Yato even stood up but he wasn't concerned but he had a weird ass smile on his face. Doji walked up to him and whispered something in his era. I didn't have to to deal with them.

Nile was on the floor, his body still and his eyes halfway opened. They looked unfocused and glassy. His cheeks still were stained with tear. I crouched down and picked up Nile's head and held him close. My eyes widen as I noticed my hand had blood on it. I looked to Nile's midsection and his clothing was crimson red.

''Order in the court. I demand order in the court,'' the judge wailed. He tried to make sure that everyone was calm..

''Nile,'' Tsubasa was next to me. He looked on with concern as everyone was in chaos and people were calling the ambulance.

''Kyoya, Tsubasa, there's traffic and the ambulance cannot get through,'' I cursed and immediatly not knowing what to do. I can't get to the hospital any quicker by running.

''Excuse me,'' a girl pushes me out of the way. A boy with red hair follows her. He had a white case in his hands. The girl starts spitting out instructions.

''Wait who are you,'' I ask.

Ryuga comes to my side and pulls me away from those people.

''Kyoya they are the surprise witnesses. They are Madoka and Gingka. They were paid by Yato to look at Nile during his pregnancy. They were the last nails in Yato's coffin,'' Ryuga explains. But I could care less about the trial right no.

''Your honor I think it is Nile's and possibly the baby's best interest to have restraining orders on Yato, until at least this trial has reached a decision,'' I can hear Tsubasa say.

''Objection,'' Doji immediately jumps up,'' your honor Yato has a right to be with his spouse besides with that amount of blood there is no secure answer that the baby lives. If it does, then Yato has a right to see him.''

''Your honor given the reason for this trial, I don't see why Yato has any rights to see Nile or the child that will survive. He can pose a danger to both of them. We have the child's as well as Nile's best interest at heart,'' Tsubasa says.

''Your honor I have a right to see my child,'' Yato pleads with the man. I can see the facade he puts on

''I understand that but I can not let you pose a harm to Nile or the child. I must agree with Mr, Tsubasa and allow the two restraining orders from you. I'm sorry but their safety is something I can not risk,'' he slammed down his gavel, signaling he's made the final decision.

Doji and Yato look angry at their failed plea.

I smirk and grin towards the two. Another good thing happens as sirens are heard. Then rushed footsteps echo in the courtroom. Two paramedics arrive with the rolling gurney. Madoka and Gingka look up and smile at the coming help. A lot of talk occurs between Madoka and one paramedic while the other one and Gika are lifting Nile up and onto the gurney. I snap out of my thoughts and help them hurry Nile out of the room and into the waiting ambulance. I see the flashes of cameras immediately as an onslaught of questions are asked. Many officers look at Nile with scorn but do their job and create a path for the gurney to pass safely.

''Can I ride along?'' I ask

''Sure thing,'' they said. Nile is loaded into the ambulance and away we o.

In the ambulance the paramedics take Nile's pulse as well as hook him up to an Iv.

At the hospital it is an even bigger frenzy. Some of the vultures… er press had followed them in their own cars and one again plastered themselves outside the hospital. They keep asking questions and flashing cameras.

Nile was wheeled into surgery and I was forced to wait outside. I turn to look outside when I hear the vul..press get louder. Isee Tsubasa, Ryuga, Ginga and Madoka push their ways inside. Tsubasa goes directly to the front desk, probably to tell them that Yato is not allowed anywhere near Nile and the baby for any reason. And if he is found, he would be arrested for violating the restraining order.

''Hey have they told you anything?" Ryuga asks.

''No the wheeled him in and ushered me out but it hasn't even been an hour so we got some waiting to do. How did the judge handle all the chaos?''

''He called order, slamming his gavel. Cops came and calmed everyone down enough so that they could leave which was easy and now I know why,'' he turned to see the press still at it.

''Yeah they followed us,'' I reply.

''Yato was released from house arrest,'' Ryuga stated.

''Wait why?"I ask.

''The judge says that the restraining order is enough to keep Nile and the baby safe,'' he responds.

''Madoka,'' I remember,'' how much of a chance does the baby have at living?"

''Nie is almost 8 months so it okay but it's not good. Nile was under a lot of emotional turmoil and stress and that might of caused this to happen. I can't say for sure but the baby had a 4 out of 10 chance of making it. An Nile has a 6 out 0f 10 chance of making it,'' she says.

''Wait, why does Nile have a chance of dying?'' I asked, concern practically drowning me.

''Nile had severe injuries during the beginning of his pregnancy that cause his body to weakened. Yato had also broke Nile's hip in an earlier point making him high risk in the first place. Plus Yato fired both Ginga and I so I didn't get to see if his condition worsened. Then add the amount of blood Nile lost at the courtroom and the way here,'' she looked to the floor,'' Nile's spirit to live also worries me. He wants his child to live so much that if he didn't Nile might just slip away. "

''Nile is strong he won't give up,'' I say trying to convince myself that Nile was going to be just fine. We all sit down and silence consumes the room. Tsubasa also looks detached as we await for news on Nile's condition.

8 hours later

I looked around as the others were asleep. I kept trying to wake myself by walking around but I still felt like closing my eyes. I couldn't allow myself to sleep while I had no idea what was going on with Nile. I needed to know that he would be fine and that nothing was going to happen to him.

I stand up alerting everyone. The doctor that was with Nle walked up to us. Everyone, in variou states of waking up, rubbed their eyes to make sure this wasn't an illusion. It was not, so they all got up and crowded the doctor.

''Nile and the baby are fine. H was delivered by cesarean and he is premature but he will live. He is healthy. As for Nile, He is recovering and it will be a slow one but he's going to make a full recovery. His immune system is very weak so we can't allow you to visit him right now but if you like the baby is awake and kicking,'' the doctor said.

I want to see Nile but I think he would want me to protect the baby.

'' Please, I'd,'' I look around. ''We'd like to see the baby.''

''Okay, please follow me,'' the doctor leads the way. We are in private room with a security guard outside the door. An incubator is in the middle of the room. I look around to see an empty bed where Nile must have given birth. He was , I guess, moved to another room. I look into the incubator to see a lively baby. Hwe is little but he sure is happy to be alive. From what I can see, he has Nile's skin tone and the little hairs on his head gives the indication that he got Yato's hair color. His eyes aren't going to open for a few weeks so I can only pray he got Nile's eyes and not the bastards eyes. he is wearing a light blue onesies.

Madoka opens the incubator and carries the baby out. I go to protest but she gives me a look. She walks to the other end of the room and lays the baby down on the bed.

''Ginka,'' she says. The sid redhead does up to her with the briefcase that they had in the pulls out a stethoscope and rubs is on the baby ribs. She leans in close and she moves the thing on him. The baby decides now it's a good time to stay still. She raises her head away from the baby and puts the thing back in the case. ''His breathing is normal. Normally in cases like this, the baby's lungs are weak but his are strong.''

We all smile. Ginga now looks at the baby closer.

''I'm going to the cafeteria, anyone wanna join?''

They all leave and I am left with the baby. I make sure no one is watching me and carefully pick up the baby. I make sure that he is comfortable. I rock him gently.

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are grey

You'll never know

How much I love you

How much I love you…. and NIle

You are my sunshine

my only sunshine

I'll make you happy

until I die

I'll always show you

how much i love you

how much I love

you

I started to cry for joy and soon the baby fell asleep I stood up to put him in the incubator. I watched him as he slept. I want nothing ever to happen to him. I will protect him. I will not fail him like I did his father.

We are almost done but not without adding some drama. Sorry about the real late update. I got writers block and I wanted this chapter to be emotional. That was hard so it took some time. Agian I am so sorry about the lateness with this chapter.
