Disclaimer: Tekken is not mine and neither are the lyrics to Mary J. Blige's: Steal Away. Steal Away's lyrics will be read through out this fanfic. Might I add that Mary's CD: No More Drama is one of the best CD's of all time! Oh, and Trevene is mine though.
Chapter 6"You're what?" Jin, Hwoarang and Trevene asked simultaneously while looking at me with a raised eyebrow.
"I'm…pregnant," I repeated myself. I watched as all of them stared at me with their mouths wide open. I guess none of them knew what to say…I really didn't know what to say either. I kept this pregnancy from them for three months.
"How long have you been, you know…. pregnant?" asked Jin as he stared at me in awe.
I looked to my stomach and held my hand to it. "Two months."
"Two months?!" everyone said in unison. I looked at them once again to see that each of them had an eyebrow raised and stared at me as if I was some weird woman from the planet Venus.
I nodded. Yeah…but not two, three months. "Damn Christie. No wonder you're wearing those big ass sweatshirts. I thought that shit was for fashion." Hwoarang was always into fashion.
I looked to the floor. "Who's baby is it Christie?" asked Jin as he rested his back on the arm rest.
"What?" I asked in a dumb tone.
He frowned. "I'm not joking. Whose baby is it? Mine or Eddy's?"
I bit my bottom lip. I really didn't want to say Eddy's, but it was his child. Jin wasn't going to be a father although I really wanted him to be the father of my baby. "Yours," I lied. That was stupid. When he finds out that it isn't his he'll never trust nor forgive me ever again.
He smiled a bit though despite my lie. "Are you sure?" he asked.
Once again I lied as I nodded. I hate this…and I know his is going to hate me for lying to him in the future. Hwoarang obviously was happy about it and so was Trevene because they were running around the dorm screaming, "I'mma aunt," and "I'mma uncle," and not once thinking about the noise level. I on the other hand wanted to lie down on a bed and cry…cry until I became dehydrated. I lied to the man that I had feelings about, and I decided to cheat in the man that I was in love with. Eddy may have left, but I know if he decides to come back anytime in the future and see me with Jin of all people, then he would really have a fit of rage.
Jin started to smile now. He didn't smile a little smile but a very wide smile that caught my attention. "I'm going to be a father," he said in a low whisper looking at me with bright eyes while he repeated, "I'm going to be a father."
I walked over to him and sat down next to him. Trevene and Hwoarang were now taking seats next to us as we all hugged each other and smiled. Jin held me tight as I held onto Hwoarang and Trevene, and we never let each other go. The thought that we all were going to be a happy family really made me happy…but I had to get it straight that Jin wasn't the father and he was going to find out.
Hwoarang looked up for a minute. "There's not doubt that Jin isn't the father…you're two months pregnant. Right Christie?"
I looked up, Jin still holding me as we stared at him with one eyebrow raised. "We've established that Hwoarang." He gave a really crooked smile as he looked back at Trevene who was trying to hold in a laugh. I might as well enjoy this moment while I can because I won't be enjoying this pregnancy for long…
*************
Jin was sleeping while his bruised knee sat on the coffee table next to the couch. I was sitting on the other side of him on the couch just thinking and wondering about my unborn baby. Hwoarang and Trevene went out to celebrate my pregnancy by going to a fancy restaurant but I decided to stay behind. Jin couldn't go because of his knee and the least I could do to make it up to him was to help him out. Well I did do this to him.
I watched as Jin rested peacefully on the couch. His chest moved up and down and his hands were placed at his sides while one leg rested on the couch and the bruised leg on the coffee table. My eyes started to water, as I couldn't believe I lied to a man that hates deception. Maybe he'll forgive me if he really loves me…right? Who the fuck am I kidding. He won't forgive me because I am nothing but a childish fool believing that a lie would actually make things right.
I sighed as I got up off the couch.
"Christie?" Damn it if I woke up Jin. I really am fucked up right now and I need something to help me relax.
"Sorry Jin, I didn't mean to wake you," I assured him as I got up to go to my room.
"You didn't wake me." He held his hand out to me and I turned around to face him. I took his hand and kissed it. He then pulled me close to him and kissed my forehead, then my cheek, then my lips. I didn't let go of that kiss. I wanted to escape once again. That kiss felt like a drug and I was addicted to it…addicted to him. I ran my hands up his shirt while he did the same to me. His hands stopped on my growing stomach. My hands stopped roaming as his warm hands probed that area. He kept his hand there for a while as I broke the kiss and arched my head back.
He removed my shirt and pressed his lips against the area now, making me moan and shudder. I dropped my hands to my sides as his lips slid from the center of my stomach to the side. Jin was making sure that this baby was his and only his. He started to plant kisses on my stomach while moving up to my chest but then disappointingly, he stopped.
My head flung up quickly. "Why did you stop?"
He looked up at me and smiled. "I don't want to go too far with you since your pregnant and all."
I growled. I wanted to feel his touch so badly I missed it so much. I just wanted to feel it one more time before my stomach grew to be the size of a watermelon. "Jin I really want you," I said pulling at his shirt collar. Jin laughed as he looked down at his growing erection, but he still didn't go on.
"I can't Christie."
"Why?!"
"Because I am injured," he said pointing to his knee.
I sank down into the couch. My hopes for getting to feel his presence inside of me wasn't going to happen anytime soon so I grabbed my shirt and put it back on. He started to chuckle as I pulled my shirt over me and snatched the remote from out of his hand.
"What the hell is so funny?" I asked in a menacing undertone while staring at the television screen. He didn't reply. He just kept looking at me laughing…it seemed eerie but I guess it didn't faze me any.
Now he decided to answer. "You look so cute sitting there sulking like a six year old. Did you do this to Eddy when he didn't want to give you any?"
I turned up my lip and stared at him. I was trying to keep from laughing but it didn't work. I laughed so hard it sounded like I was coughing. He started to laugh at me while I laughed. Then I stopped and answered his question. "No, actually, he wanted sex more than I did. I guess I want it so bad now because I know I won't get it again until three weeks after the baby is born."
That's when Jin stared at me with a horrified look on his face. "Three weeks after the baby is born?!" he gasped. I nodded while looking at him giving me this horrified look. I guess he couldn't take the fact that he wouldn't be getting anymore for a while…and I mean a long while.
I looked at him trying not to laugh. "See, I told you to finish what you started, hurt leg or not. I am two months pregnant now. If you actually do this now, there will be no affect at all and of course we both will get something." I winked at him. His horrified look started to go away and he wasted no time joining me in a mid-afternoon snack…

"Didn't you tell Steve that I was coming over tomorrow?" Hwoarang asked Julia on speakerphone in a low voice, trying not to wake Jin and me up. He didn't realize that although I had my eyes closed, I could hear everything. Jin on the other hand was sleeping like a baby. We clothed after we were done and just as we finished clothing was when Hwoarang walked in.
"No I didn't Rang. As of right now he has a concussion. He couldn't box last week and he is really upset about that."
There was silence for a minute. "Tell him that Christie is really sorry for what she did. I guess her hormones came in to play or something…"
"Really?! I don't think so. I think she did that out of anger. Remember Rang she doesn't like him."
Hwoarang shook his head. "I think she did it because of what he said to her."
Julia was silent for a minute, then she sighed. "Well she did attack him verbally first."
Now Hwoarang sighed while shaking his head and I opened my eyes, sitting up. "Look like I told you before she is really under pressure from all of this hormonal stuff and of course she doesn't like him. Maybe we shouldn't have invited him." Julia sucked her teeth and hung up the phone on him. Rang wasn't too surprised…he knows her and her temper. If you ask me they make the perfect couple. They're both ass-wipes.
Hwoarang turned around to see me sitting up looking at him. He smiled at me as I got up to give him a hug. "Hey, I just spoke to your idiotic friend," he said extending his arms.
"I heard you," I said walking into his extended arms. He closed them and hugged me tightly.
"This is Jin's job I hope you know," he said looking down at me.
I looked up at him. "I can't hug a friend."
He laughed as we broke off the hug. Just as we broke off the hug Jin started to stir in his sleep. I wanted to laugh at him. Every time he sleeps he always looks like he's fighting somebody. I turned to look back at Hwoarang but he was getting a pillow from the couch ready to hit his friend with it.
"Wait, I know you're not going to do that without me."
He looked at me and tossed me a pillow. On the count of three we hit Jin with the pillow scaring him so bad that he fell to the floor with a thud. Then we started to pummel him while he was on the bottom of the pile screaming and hollering for us to stop. He grabbed me and threw me on the couch while Hwoarang answered his cell phone that was constantly ringing.
Hwoarang looked at the caller id and ran into the bathroom to answer the call. "Yo."
"What the fuck?! Can't you answer the phone?"
Rang sucked his teeth. "Yo, what's up wit you? Can't you come back to Japan to see your friends and Christie?"
"Yeah that's what I was calling you for. I am coming to see her tomorrow. Yo and tell her I am going to be with her forever this time."
Rang shook his head this time. "Right Eddy. I don't think you are. To tell you the truth, you gotta prove to her that you are. It's been three months." Hwoarang looked into the mirror. "Damn man, three months!"
"Don't give me a fucking lecture. I know how long it's been. I had to take care of something and I got something for my baby Christie too. Tell her I'm coming."
Click.
Rang stepped out of the bathroom with a pale look on his face that made both me and Jin stop cold. Jin was holding his knee again…he forgot that he was hurt. I helped him back on the couch and walked over to Hwoarang.
"Eddy is coming back for you tomorrow, Christie."
I stopped dead in my tracks…Eddy is coming back? If this could get any worse…
