I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho. Blah, Blah, blah.

This chapter is about Keiko and how she is coping with her dieses. It is set four months from when I last left the story. I hope that this will be the longest chapter yet.

It had been three months since the doctors first told me about my illness. It had started taking it toll on me about last week. Every since Botan came back from being missing for a night she has been getting sick in the mornings. Last week we found out that she was pregnant. Everyone has been getting moody and no one is truly happy anymore. Hell, even Hiei has been worried about both Botan and I.
It is really sweet if you look at it in the right light, too. Hiei, the heartless demon who hates humans with a passion, is getting worried about two female humans! Well Botan used to be a human, or at lest half human anyways. When ever I go to the Doctors Yuusuke demands that he comes with me just incase I fall and can't get back up or unless I get mugged. I think that he believes that I would get mugged more then I would fall and never get up again. I wish that was true. I wish that I had never gotten this damned sickness!
Kumara has been doing nothing but researching my illness to try to help with anything that he can. I wish that I could do something to repay them, anything. Hiei for bothering to care about Botan and I, Yuusuke for loving me, Kumara for doing research for me, and Kuwabara for making me laugh when I get even a slight frown on my face.
The girls have been a big help as well. Yukina has been trying every day to heal me with her powers, that only partly works because it keeps me alive for at lest the rest of the day. Botan has brought me flowers from foreign countries that I've told her I wanted to visit someday. That was of course before I had gotten this damned cruse and before she had gotten pregnant. Genkai has sat with me for hours on end; just sitting they're helping me fight against being lonely.
Botan has promised me everyday that she will name her baby after me even if it turns out to be a little boy. When ever she says that I can't help but to laugh. But it is starting to hurt to do that now. My lungs are aging quickly and can't put up with it as well anymore if at all. My lungs aren't the only things that are ageing quickly, my heart, my spleen, every thing is. It just proves that I will die soon. Too soon to be able to do anything with my life. I will die a virgin because even if I wanted too, I would not be able to have sex. My body is 'too old' as the doctors say.
How sad is that? I can't even give the one I love what I've always wanted to give him. Instead I will take it to my grave with me. How selfish of me. Wish that there was something that anyone could do to not die. I would give anything just to give Yuusuke that one little membrane called my virginity. Damn it all for my cruel fate and damn it all for making everyone close to me suffer. Does Kami hate me THAT much to make everyone who even remotely cares about me suffer for as long as they live? If so, that rat basrted should burn in limbo forever. Stupid fates. Stupid cruel evil vile fates that hate me so. Damn it now I'm ranting about how I hate almost every thing now. It seems that everything that I once hated with a passion, like Hiei hated me, is as beautiful as a newborn baby. Another thing that I will never have. My life is truly sad as to be condemned to a fate as dying young like Yuusuke has so many times before, but unlike my love, I wont come back. Ever.

ok I lied a bout it being the longest chapter, but I think that it was ok. I guess. Please review now that you've read. Thanks!
