Chapter 29.

The young couple left it months till Christmas came before they went back to the main house. During that time in summer, autumn and winter, Tohru had no problems what so ever.

Kyo took summer off to be with Tohru just in case there was a moment the cat's true form attacked her, but it never did. Instead, Tohru and Kyo decided to take it slow instead of rushing things alone. Tohru enjoyed the pleasant dreams and the long rest where she was never haunted or hurt physically while being scared mentally.

Their relationship began to improve. The struggle they had face had passed and increased their bond. During the time, both in the couple found their relationship becoming more strained yet here they are today, more couply than couples can be.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?! WHY ARE THERE LEEKS IN MY FOOD!?" Kyo yelled early morning, the way he use too.
"Kyo, I told you to eat the rice balls on the right." Tohru ruffled his hair. "Those rice balls are for me and Li here."
"That's right Sohma-sensei." Li chuckled at Kyo's overreaction.
"There's a law stating if it's toxic, you put a big 'X' on it. Jesus, don't tell me you've forgot what we learned in science already?!"
"I-I'm sorry. I'll remember to next time." Tohru gave himt he innocent child look.

Kyo let out a long and pitiful sigh before smiling and gave Tohru a small tap on the head with his closed fists. Tohru immediately thought it was a punch and shut her eyes but was shocked when it was a tap.

"Hey, don't worry about it. Thanks by the way." Kyo bit into his plum riceball. Tohru smiled brightly at her husband.
"Oh no no!" Tohru panicked at all the appreciation she was getting that she didn't feel she deserved. "Th-thank-you for being with me."

Kyo smiled at Tohru and she smiled back. He put his hand on her pale beautiful skin and brushed back a strand of her brunette locks to get a better look at her face and twinkling eyes. Kyo then leaned down and placed a kind and soft kiss on her lips. Once the kiss was broken he placed his forehead onto hers and breathed in deeply. Kyo kept it crimson eyes shut while Tohru looked up at him with her dark orbs.

"I love you." he muttered out loud. This made Tohru smile and give off a little humming-giggle.
"I know." she whispered back. "I love you too."

With her hands, she gently placed them onto the orange-heads cheeks and lifted his head up so their blazing eyes could meet each others.

"With every day I live, with every breath I take, I will always love you till it all comes to a stop. No, even then I'll love you for eternity. As long as I am me and you are you, I'll love you."

Kyo couldn't help but chuckle at this. "How many chickflicks have you been watching? For that's incredibly cheesy."

"EH!"

Tohru's face turned a solid red colour going all the way up to the tips of her ears. She pushed off and swung her arms up and down with huge white oval eyes panicking at how embarrassed she was. Kyo chuckled at this before catching her wrists and pulling her closer into him.

"Though I'll admit it's cheesy, it's also very sweet." Kyo leaned in to give Tohru a short kiss, or he hoped it would be short.

The kiss was intensified as Kyo politely asked for Tohru's mouth to open and it kindly did, allowing him to insert his tongue and dominate. Tohru wrapped her arms around Kyo's neck and his dropped from her waist. It had been a slow and steady build up in their relationship for this. After the events of losing one child after the other, being attacked and haunted in Tohru's dreams and the whole banishing the spirit; they took things very slow.

This had been their first proper kiss in months. It felt good. Too good. They ruffled their hands about getting familiar once again with each other and took in every sensation they could. Nothing could ruin this...

...except for the loud throat clearing.

Tohru and Kyo tore apart from each others bodies; from each others heat. They turned and looked at little Li who stood by the doorway.

"Um...I was wondering...uh..." he watched the adults carefully.

The blood boiled in Tohru's face while Kyo looked away, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. It was funny and sweet because it felt like they were teenagers again when everything was new, exciting and awkward.

"Nevermind." Li smiled and ran off.

Tohru and Kyo looked at each other and couldn't help but smile and laugh upon meeting each other's pupils.

"To be," Kyo walked to the door while saying this. He stopped and turned to look at Tohru with a devilish smile and finished his sentence," continued."

Tohru nodded and smiled knowingly before walking out with more riceballs.

...

They lay side by side each other. Kyo stared up at the ceiling with one leg bent and the other down and his left arm behind his head while his right arm draped over his stomach. Tohru lay on her side away from Kyo. Each pretended to be alseep but really, they were both wide away. Tohru concentrated on the outside to the bright silvery moon while Kyo- like I said- kept his eyes on the ceiling.

"I know you're awake." Kyo turned his head to Tohru's direction.
Tohru let out a long sigh. "I know you're awake too." She changed direction by turning on her other side to face Kyo.

Once the look was exchanged, Kyo let out a sweet sigh and stretched out his left arm and Tohru wiggled over to him and set her cheek on his chest; listening to his beating heart and the left arm of Kyo came round to protect her.

"Do you think...things will ever be...'normal' for us?" Tohru asked.
"Define 'normal'?" Kyo asked her.
"I still want to have a child but at the same time, I don't. I'm scared." Kyo placed a kiss on the top of Tohru's head to let her continue. "Wh-what happens if it didn't work and when I get pregnant...it comes back?"
"I'll protect you." Kyo reassured her. "I'd happily let it possess me once again if it meant to keep you safe."
"B-But you hate it! You were so glad it was gone!"
"Yeah, I know. But it's worth it. You're worth it." Kyo looked at Tohru with serious but kind, loving eyes. Tohru widened hers and smiled.

They slowly fell asleep.

...

Winter came and passed round the corner and it was now March. After that night, they became the lovey-dovey everyone knows and loves. She was a nervous wreck but sweet, kind and innocent while he was hot-head, bold and irritable. Yet, together she was confident and a bit bold herself while he become quiet and just as sweet.

"Tohru, are you ready?" Kyo knocked gently on the door to their bathroom.

When no one answered Kyo walked in a little worried to find his wife on the toilet with the lid closed. Her legs were huddled to her chest and her arms were wrapped round knees as well as her legs sunk into them.

"Tohru! W-What's wrong?"
"K-Kyo..." she looked up with bloodshot eyes. "H-Here."

Tohru grabbed his hand and twirled it round. She then lifted hers and placed a stick in the palm of his hand before curling his fingers up into it. Kyo brought his hand closer and opened it up to see the stick. It was a pregnancy test; positive.

"Y..." was all Kyo could say. He then looked up at Tohru and finished off what he started. "You're pregnant?"

Tohru nodded her head.

"Why are you upset? Shouldn't you be happy?"
"I-I'm not ready. I'm not ready for this."

Kyo sighed and wrapped his arms around her, saying nothing. He knew she wasn't ready, who were they fooling? After all the miscarriages, who would be happy to know they were pregnant again? Not only was she pregnant, she was two months pregnant.

...

Five months pregnant and everything was fine. Tohru never seen or heard of the cat's true form but she couldn't help but feel just a little anxious about it. Upon hearing Tohru's pregnant again, the Sohma family wanted to see her again just as a check up to see how she was. So they packed their bags in June and made their way down the mountain to the huge house.

Everyone that was in the Sohma family were the only ones present in the house. They rung the buzzer and the gates opened up. The two entered, Tohru waddling and Kyo supporting. They opened the door and everyone greeted with smiles at how healthy, large and still pregnant Tohru was.

"How's everything? Any visits?" Shigure asked making the room quiet. They all stared at Tohru anxiously who kept a smile plastered on her face.
"Nope. Everything's been going fine."
"May I give you a check up?" Hatori asked calmly. Tohru nodded and waddled her way to Hatori's office leaving Kyo with the family relatives.

"Is everything really okay?" Kisa asked. Kisa and Hiro were on their last year of high school.

The years just seemed to fly by and no one noticed. Momiji was still with Bianca and happily living in the same apartment, Haru and Rin lived in a house, Kureno and Arisa were together too; engaged, Akito and Shigure were still strong in the main house with Hatori and his girlfriend; the person they all the younger generations called 'sensei' who was out for the minute, Kagura had bagged a man in the university she completed and Ritsu was happily living with another boy. Ayame had successfully completely repaired his relationship with Yuki and was still with Mine.

Yuki walked up to Kyo and smiled to him. The cat smiled back at the rat.

"How's life been?" Kyo asked.
"Oh you know..." Yuki swayed about.
"No, I don't." Kyo rolled his eyes. "How's Machi."
"Well...still quiet, still violent...oh and pregnant."
"Oh, that's cool." smiled Kyo. Yuki smiled. Kyo stopped smiling. His mouth dropped and his head turned to Yuki. Yuki laughed nervously and rubbed the back of her head. "MACHI'S PREGNANT!"

Everyone in the family turned to look at the orange-head and the grey-head. A fist went flying into Kyo's face by Yuki.

"Kyo...I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE ELSE YET!" Yuki replied.

"YUKI!" The familiar voice rang.

"Oh no." Yuki cringed on hearing it.

The loving embrace of Ayame came from behind and swung him round and round. "My Yuki, a father. That would make me..." he let Yuki go in shock. Yuki brushed himself down and instead of taking a step away from his brother, he turned and smiled and finished the sentence for him.

"Yep, that means you're going to be an uncle."
"OH YUKI!" Ayame grabbed him again.
"Oh God." Yuki muttered.

...

The family all sat about in the room talking about their lives so far. Shigure and Ayame personally made it their mission to make Kisa and Hiro as uncomfortable as possible. Or in other words, Kisa blushed too much and hid her face behind her fingers making her the cutest thing ever while Kiro got defensive and yelled a lot. It was such a bother.

"And congratulations on Yuki and Machi." Akito tried to draw the attention away from the poor teenagers.
"Yep." Ayame chirped. "I'm going to be an uncle. Oh, Hiro? Just some advice, keep your hands and...your thing to yourself you cheeky little boy. I know everyone's getting pregnant at the moment but we certainly don't want Kisa to be pregnant. Not at this time and age." he winked at Hiro.
"WOULD YOU SHUT-UP! IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!"
"Oh innocence." Ayame smiled looking over Shigure. "Remember when we were innocent and the hormones were everywhere?"
"Hard to say. It's been a looooooooooooooooooonnnnnngggg time since I was innocent."

Ayame was attacked by Yuki and Shigure was attacked by Akito; very, very violently. Kagura hugged Kisa who was on the urge of tears from her embarrassment. Kyo had to hold Hiro back as he was fuming with anger.

All conversation stopped when Tohru and Hatori entered the room.

"Ah! Tohru!"

Tohru sat beside Kyo and Momiji. Momiji hugged into her and rubbed her baby bump.

"Wow, it's kicking!" Momiji laughed. "Strong."

Kyo placed a hand on the bump and smiled, feeling the junior. Everyone hugged one another and felt the loving warmth within them all. Kisa broke the silence by squeaking. Eyes turned on her and her face lit red but that didn't stop the little tiger. The tiger cleared her throat to speak.

"Um...I was wondering...could I...could I feel? I...I've never felt a baby kick before."
"Of course you can." Tohru open her arms out wide.

Kisa crawled over self-consciously and accepted the hug from Tohru before putting her hands on where the little kicker's feet were.

Tohru looked up from her swollen uterus to look around at the Sohma family. Every smile, every giggle, every warm beating heart made her flutter inside.

A figure stood in the corner of the room when Tohru passed her eyes from her. Once caught sight, she did a double take. It was still there. Except it wasn't dark. It was orange...with big purple eyes and huge stringy arms and legs.

"I-I'm not asleep!" Tohru said out loud. This exchanged her with weird looks. The family all asked if she was okay.
"No, I guess your not." the monster growled. "But I'm still here either way."

The monster bent down, steadying itself for a sprint.

"NO! WAIT!" Tohru screeched from the top of her lungs. It was too late.

The beast raced towards her. The Sohma family who couldn't see anything all watched in horror as Tohru was pushed to the other end of the room.

"TOHRU!" the all reacted running to her.

To stop her from being dragged around the place, they hell her down but the arms and legs. They even covered the bump by hugging it to stop the baby from being hurt.

"Tohru!" Kyo held her upside face in his hands.
"Kyo..." she cried. "He's back. He's back Kyo, he's back! Our baby Kyo...our baby..."
"Guys..." Haru spoke out.

Haru and Momiji were holding down Tohru's legs called everyone's attention. Once spoken up, everyone looked at what the two were looking at; Tohru's crotch. It wasn't what you think but an emergency. A liquid came out of Tohru's crotch and damped the jogging bottoms she was wearing making it looked like she wet herself; but they all knew better than that.

"Tohru, your water has broken." Haru informed her.
"B-But...HOW?! It's...it's only been five months!"
"Your baby's coming early."
"Hatori!" Momiji spoke out. "What do we do?"
"We need to get her to a hospital." Hatori informed them all. "She would have been able to give birth here but one, it's premature and two, she's being attacked."
"Hatori," Tohru looked up with her fringe sticking to her sweaty forehead. "It doesn't matter where I give birth at, that thing will follow and torture me. If I go to the hospital, that thing will attack me and everyone won't understand!"
"Yes but I'm afraid we're not prepared for this." Hatori shook his head.
Akito spoke up. "You have the equipment don't you?"
"I have the equipment, the painkillers, the hot water and blankets but we're not in a clean, safe environment for this baby. This baby is going to need a very clean room and we don't even have any waterproof sheets and trust me, there's going to be a lot of body fluids that we won't want on the furniture or floor."
"Hatori's right." Shigure backed Hatori up. "Child birth is very messy and we're not prepared."

Tohru couldn't breathe. Not again. Not again could she loose this baby. Not again. Tohru doesn't want to lose a baby she never got the chance to look out. Tears streaked down her face and she nodded. Everyone helped lift her up and take her to the car to be driven to the hospital. Worried that what Tohru said was true that the 'cat' will attack her in the hospital and cause confusion with the doctors, everyone but Kyo stayed at the house, trying to find a way to banish the the cat demon once and for all.


News. Thanks for the reviews and I'm happy to say the next chapter will be the very last. I also got my GCSE's back and passed every single one of them. 1 A, 7 B's and 2 C's. Couldn't be happier...well, I could if I didn't get a B in art. They marked hard this year. The teachers told me I was getting an A and then I didn't so I feel disappointed but a lot of people that I talked to failed art so I'm trying to stay positive about it.

Thanks for everyone supporting this fanfiction. I know I started off updating fast and the very start and everything seemed fine and normal but then I came slow near the end. I guess I was just losing interest in writing and all I wanted to do was read fanfictions. Especially Attack on Titna fanfiction- Levi's my obsession at the minute. I'm waiting for the phase to end but it just keeps going. How bothersome.

Enjoy this chapter and get ready for the next chapter! xxx
