Chapter 37: I love you, that's my reason.


I woke with the ringing of my alarm. I felt the movement of someone, then the alarm stopped. I snuggled closer into this warmth around me. "Oh," I heard John say. I chuckled and peeked open one eye. I was snuggled right into John, "Hiya" I whispered, John laughed and snuggled against me.

His hand draped over my waist and protectively over the baby. I chuckled, John started to play my my hair, "Sammie, why do you have a highlight of brown hair, down the side?" John asked. I sat up,"What do you mean I don't..." I trailed of when I saw it. "What the hell?" I asked out loud. "You have never had that before right?" John asked, "Yeah," I replied.

I played with the bit of hair and I blinked at what I saw. The brown hair turnt back to black, "John, look." John sat up behind me and looked at the once brown strip of hair, "That was brown just a second ago." I nodded, we sat there in silence until three knocks hit the door. "Come in" I shouted while examining my hair. Naru and Mai walked in, "Sammie, good morning" Mai exclaimed.

Naru watched me, "Sammie, what are you doing?"Mai asked sweetly, I looked away from the hair again to look at her, "Just 2 minuets ago this bit of hair was brown, even John saw it, actually it was your colour brown." Mai cocked her head, "But its black," I nodded, "I saw it myself fade from brown to black with in seconds." Naru stood there silent.

"I have come here to speak," Naru finally said. "John-san, you, Bou-san, Lin, Yasuhara, Hara-san, Mai and myself are heading to the case site today, I have already spoke to the client, he is happy we have taken the case, Sammie, you are to stay with Matsuzaki-san today, take this with you." he handed me a necklace.

"What is this for?" I asked, "Its a charm, what ever blocked your spirit guide, Gene, is powerful, I don't need the risk of you getting hurt." I nodded, "If my spirit guide say so. If Bou-san going straight the the case site who is going with Ayako to her scan" I asked, He smirked, "You, baka." I scowled, "Don't call me a baka." Naru chuckled and left with Mai. "Ah, I better get ready," I sighed, "Same." John commented.

We both slipped out of bed, I shuffled over to my wardrobe, I opened it and sighed. I pulled out a pair of flower baggy bottoms with a white top, my cream cardigan was also in there so I pulled that out to. I walked over to my draws and pulled out a fresh pair or underwear and a nice black belt.

I lay my clothes on the bed and smiled. John came up behind me, "Nice," I laughed, "Sure." I asked. He nodded and kissed my neck. I giggled, "John, I need to get into the shower." John stopped and spun my around. "Not yet." he whispered. I smirked and kissed him, our usual battle for dominance kisses, which he always wins. I pulled away smiling, "Go and have a shower, there are 3 different bathrooms in this house." John nodded, kissed me on the forehead and then left.

I picked up my clothes and the charm then followed John out, I picked up my towel by the door and head down the hallway. 2 out of all the bathrooms were occupied so I trudge to the last one. I slipped in and locked the door. I lay the on the side then turnt the shower on. I slipped into the shower and let the warm water cover my body. I looked at my body through the mirror, I had a small bump, I giggled.

"My little Yumi or Nazumi." I ran my hand over the lump for the last time before returning to my shower. I dried myself with my towel and put on my clothes. I felt nice and warm in these clothes like most of my ones. I was lucky, all my winter wear was stretchy and baggy, I didn't need to buy anything new, just yet. I brushed my towel-dried hair, it felt into slick curls, I pulled it up into a pony tail, and left it. The curls were still very visible, but it looked pretty amazing. I picked up the charm necklace, it had a white stone in the middle, then shaped rocks with symbols on it. I did the necklace up then hid in underneath my top. I once again looked myself over before leaving the bathroom.

I entered the hall way and was met with the smell of breakfast. Ayako was standing in the kitchen and the others were sat around the table. "Morning" I said as I walked in. I got a couple of mornings back as I sat down, John kissed me cheek and went back to reading the news. Ayako put a plate in front of me, "Eat it Sammie, you know what the doctor said." I sighed, "Yes, I know".

Flashback.

I was sat in a hospital bed, looking around the white and blue room when the doctor came in. Ayako sat up next to me. The others had left, they had to get rid of this spirit. "Ah, Miss Takigawa-san, everything seems normal, you just are out of energy. I see you are pregnant, 2 months and a half now." I nodded.

"Well, have you been eating properly." I shook my head, "I never feel hungry so I don't eat, I just can't." he nodded, "You have to, for your baby, I suggest you force feed yourself, for yours and your baby's sake." I nodded, he talked to me a little more about the best foods to eat.

I just nodded, not really taking it all in but I knew Ayako was going to be on my case, remembering everything he had just said.

Flashback ended.

I ate what I could, but after I just really couldn't. Ayako understood and took the food from me. "Right, are we ready to go?" Bou-san asked. The others nodded, John stood and I followed suit. "Don't get hurt," I pleaded in a whisper. John smiled and push away the stray hair that had fallen out. "I won't don't you worry." I kissed John good bye and he left with the others. Me and Ayako stood in the kitchen, I sighed then smiled up at my adopted-mother, "Are you ready?" I asked.

She shook her head, "Let me clean the kitchen get my purse then we can go." I grinned, "Sure, I will be in the front room." I trotted of into the front room and sat down on the sofa. I listened to Ayako clean the kitchen, I didn't want to watch the TV.

I picked up my bag I left on the floor yesterday and checked for my purse. Inside was all the money I had saved for shopping, inside on of the zips of the bag was the money for the baby. I put the purse away and pulled out my phone. I had 4 new text messages.

Sammie,

I don't know why Jake transferred but I will find out, Luella said it would look perfect on your hand not out of place. Everything fine here, and what do you mean by 'more than fine really'.

Love Anna.

I laughed, "Oh you would love to know." I said out loud.

Anna,

Thank you, I don't speak to him at all but I was playing on my mind. Luella might be right, but I still don't know. I'm happy everything fine on your end, and you would love to know but you have to wait.

Love Sammie.

I closed that message and went onto the next, I was shocked at what it had said.

Sammie,

Me and the 5 children are coming out the meet you in Japan in 5 days, they are so excited. We have a hotel booked and we are staying for 2 weeks. Call it a holiday, they say Japan has lovely views. I can't wait to see you again.

Love Ami.

I read the message over and over again. "Ayako." I called urgently. Ayako appeared next to me and I handed the phone. She gasped, "The baby," I nodded, "I know, I'm either going to have to tell her or try to hide it, butif she is staying for the next two weeks that is going to be hard." Ayako sighed, "Its up to you and John, tell him when he gets back." I nodded as she left. I got back to the message to reply.

Ami,

that's great I can't wait to see you and the children, is it just you coming out or is, Dan and Melanie, coming too? Japan has some amazing views, it is really a holiday place.

Love Sammie.

I sighed, 'Was I really going to have to tell them?' I thought.

'Tell who, what Sammie?' Mai piped up.

'Ami and the children, they are coming to Japan for a holiday, and I dunno if I should tell the, about the baby, they are bound to notice.' Mai laughed,

'Don't worry about it, it's up to you and John when you want people knowing let the time come.' I giggled.

'Thanks Mai' she laughed,

'No problem, I got to love you and leave you, Sir Narcissist want me' she and I giggled and cut the connection.

I went back to the last two text messages.

Sammie-chan,

Its Naruto, the party is still on this weekend, if your aloud to come, I hope you do. I miss you.

Naruto-kun.

I giggled, "Bless him"

Naruto-kun,

I still have to ask, but I would love to. I miss you too, I do hope to come and see you lot again.

Sammie-chan,

I sent the short message back and looked at the last one. I dropped my phone when I saw what was written. I stared down at the text, I gazed over to who it was by and couldn't get over it.

Sammie,

I love you, and that's my reason for everything.

Jake.
