Chapter 7
"Yusuke... please stay with me." Keiko said, as she sat there with Yusuke, who was looking at her, staring at her beauty.
"I will, I promise. I'll never leave you." He said, as he put his hand on her cheek.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, as Atsuko opened the door. A small man with light blue hair and light blue eyes appeared at the door. He was carrying a large bag, almost the size of him. He dragged it on the floor, and entered the apartment. "Oh, why hello Chokushi... Yusuke's here, don't worry."
"That's the problem... here's a letter for you, your highness." He said, bowing his head as he went to his knees, raising the letter up to Yusuke. Yusuke took it, looking at the small man.
"I hope they pay you enough to do this job, Chokushi." He said. "Between all the letters I've sent here, you've gotta be exhausted."
"It's my duty." The small man said, bowing again, as he stood to his feet. Yusuke opened it up, and started reading to himself.
Yusuke,
There's a problem... your other two kings, they've found out about you being in the Ningenkai for Keiko and Atsuko. All I can say is, don't come back right now... I'll try and sort stuff out, and I'll keep you posted from day to day, but right now, it's all hell here. They're severely pissed off, and I suggest staying there. If I miss one day, assume the worse and don't come back, and make sure you're somewhere they cannot find you. They don't like traitors, and they aren't going to accept the fact that you fell in love with a human. Protect her as much as you can.

"Oh... shit." Yusuke said. He looked at Keiko. "Fuck, I knew I shouldn't have been doing this... See what happens Keiko? This is why I didn't want you to find out! Shit!" He said, standing up. "I put you in danger, as well as like the entire world! I have no idea what they're going to do!"
"Yusuke, they can't hurt us, don't worry. Nothing will happen, it'll be alright!" Keiko said lovingly, reaching for her fiance's hand.
"DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION HERE?" Yusuke said, screaming at Keiko.
"DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? THEY FOUND OUT ABOUT ME! SO WHAT?"
"THEY'RE GOING TO KILL YOU?"
"IT'LL WORK OUT, JUST LIKE ALWAYS!"
"HOW DO YOU KNOW? IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE A PSYCHIC, NOW ARE YOU? I CAN SENSE THE DANGER!" He said, as he sat down, and punched a pillow. Keiko sat down next to him.
"Relax." She said, as she rubbed her hand against his back. "Everything will work out the way it should. It'll work out, I promise."
He looked at her, even with a baby growing in her, she's still beautiful. He nodded, looking at her, as Keiko rested her head on Yusuke, as he put his arm around her. She started to fall asleep, as Atsuko approached them. "She can stay the night." She said, looking at the couple admirably. "Put her on your bed when she's asleep. I'm gonna go to bed now too. It's getting late." She said, as she kissed Keiko and Yusuke on the foreheads. "Just call her father and tell him she's here."
Yusuke waited for her to fall asleep, as he then lifted her up. 'Damn, she got heavy... they weren't kidding when they said pregnancy is a pain in the ass.' He put her on his bed, sitting there, watching her sleep. He put a blanket over her, as she slept silently. 'She looks so, innocent.' He said. 'It reminds me of how she looked as I slept next to her that night.' He started whistling their song, as he walked to the phone. 11pm. It's pretty late right now, I hope that Mr. Yukimura is still awake. He dialed the number, and Mr. Yukimura picked up.
"Hello?" The man said.
"Hi, It's Yusuke." Said Mr. Yukimura. "Keiko's here."
"Oh, ok." He said, as he stopped for a minute. "Where have you been?"
'Shit, how am I going to explain to him this situation?' Yusuke thought. "I've been on this foreign exchanged program. I get to visit home for a few nights ever so often... it's been my first night home since I left. I'm going to school in Europe for a little while."
"Oh... ok. Did Keiko tell you about her child?" He said, concerned.
"Yes, and now that I know, I'm staying here, for good." He said, as they said their goodbyes and hung up the phone.
12am. He sat on his couch, drinking a beer, relaxing. (A/N: I never realized how much that line right there sounded like chicago... haha... he was sitting on the couch, drinking a beer, and chewing... no... not chewing.. POPPING! Lol sry had to make a random note somewhere! Back to the story!) 'It's been so long since I've been able to do nothing.' He thought, thinking back at the Makai. There's one night he can't get out of his head.
"How do you like the Makai so far?" Said a strange voice, as a figure appeared. It was one of the other rulers from the Makai.
"It's nice." Yusuke had remarked. "It's different for me."
"Really? How so?"
"I don't know how to say it to you." Yusuke said, as he put his head down. "There's just something about the Ningenkai that feels like... there's something extra there for me. Something I wish I had here." He stopped, knowing he wanted Keiko. "It's just... a different feeling I get here."
"Like something's missing?" He said, as Yusuke looked at him.
"Yea... I guess so."
'What if they knew? What if they knew then because of me missing something that I'd want to come here? I put them in danger. It's all my fault.' Yusuke thought to himself.
"Don't blame yourself, spirit detective." Said a familiar voice. It was dark, deep, mysterious... almost frightened him as if it were a nightmare.
"You mustn't blame yourself. Partially because we had helped this to happen." Another voice said, a higher voice, this time, soothing to Yusuke.
"Who's there?" Yusuke said, jumping up, as he stuck his index finger out, prepared to shoot anyone coming in the way.
"Put your spirit gun down, it's us." Hiei said, appearing from the dark, with Kurama standing behind him. Kuwabara was also with them.
"Thank god you guys are here."
"Hiei could sense your return, so we arrived as soon as we could." Kurama said. "How's the Makai?"
"As of now? I'm not sure. I'm going to be killed if I go back."
"Why is that detective? Too soft for them?" Hiei said. "I knew you'd be too soft for them. Hn."
"Not really Hiei." He said, as the three of them sat down. Yusuke explained everything that happened. It was nice, talking to them again. He hasn't seen them since the first time he went to the Makai.
"Yusuke, we're sorry that you had to do that."
"Speak for yourself Kurama." Hiei said. "You needed the experience detective. It's nothing to apologize for!"
"Whatever Hiei. All I know is that I've put everyone here in danger, including you guys, my mother, and Keiko. All I know is that I have to protect them."
"Urameshi, you know that we're here for you." Kuwabara said. "I'm staying here with you, to help you out. I lost you once... actually... twice... and I don't want you die again. The second time was the worst, seeing you die right in front of my own eyes, when I knew I could have stopped you." He said, as he glanced down at the floor. "If I had only had my new power sooner, you would have been alright, and we could have defeated Sensui together, instead of him killing you. None of this would have happened if I would have just been able to reach it sooner."
"Kuwabara, don't blame yourself. I did that for you three... to bring out your powers." Yusuke said. "No matter what the Makai has to give me, we'll take it, and make it through, just like always."
3 am. The four men are sitting in the living room, by the door of the apartment, hoping that nothing comes. "Guys, go to bed. If anyone comes, I can handle it."
"I think you've spent too much time with Kuwabara, that would be extremely foolish spirit detective." Hiei said.
"What's that supposed to mean, shorty?" Kuwabara remarked, standing up, standing in front of Hiei, with his fist held in the air.
"Stop it you two, you sound like two kids." Yusuke said.
"I concur." Kurama added in.
"We're staying Urameshi, because that's what friends do." Kuwabara said. Yusuke looked at him, and nodded.
6am. Keiko ran out of bed, and right into Yusuke. Yusuke fell over, due to the massive size of her belly. "Yusuke... help." She said, as Yusuke stood up quickly.
"What is it! You just knocked me flat on my ass!"
"I think my water just broke."
Yusuke looked at her, confused. "Eeh! What the hell does that mean? I didn't know that water could break, I thought it was a liquid! DAMN teachers they teach you nothing!" He scurried around the house looking for a towel. "Did anyone come in your room last night when I wasn't there? Did someone from the Makai do something to you?" He screamed from the other room Then he looked down at his shirt, and saw liquid on him. "Ew! What is this doing on me!"
"THAT'S MY WATER YOU JERK! MY WATER BROKE WHICH MEANS THE BABY IS COMING!"
Yusuke panicked, going frantic. "Oh my god... the phone, where's the phone?" He looked around, as his hands shook. "Let me call your dad."
"CALL A FUCKING AMBULANCE THIS THING IS KILLING ME!!!!!!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
He made a call, and he waited, as he paced back and forth around the room. "Hello? SHIT!" Yusuke said. "The fucking answering machine!"
"I SAID THE CALL THE HOSPITAL YUSUKE!" Keiko said, as she screamed. Yusuke picked her up, and started running out the door. Keiko was screaming, hitting his arm as Yusuke ran as fast as he humanly... um... I mean, demonly could.
"Um... Botan?" Koenma said to me, as we watched the screen.
"Yes koenma?" I said, innocently.
"What is... this water she's talking about..."
"ARE YOU SERIOUS KOENMA!" I screamed. "You're the ruler of all the human world and you don't even know how they come to the world? Seriously, what kind of A RULER ARE YOU!?"
Suddenly, koenma's head turned into his baby form. "Hehe sorry my parents never told me what happens when they come out. Hehe..." he laughed awkwardly.
"At least I know that right now you're true self is showing." I said, as he fixed his head back to the adorable teenage head I loved so much.
"YUSUKE OUR CHILD IS GOING TO HAVE SEVERE MENTAL PROBLEMS IF YOU CARRY ME TO THE HOSPITAL THIS WAY!" Keiko screamed, as Yusuke was a block away from the hospital. "PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW! THIS IS NO WAY TO TREAT YOUR FIONCE!"
"QUIT COMPLAINING I'M TRYING TO GET US THERE BEFORE THE BABY COMES OUT!"
"YOU'RE SUCH A JERK! WHY CAN'T YOU BE A NORMAL PERSON!"
"BECAUSE I'M NOT NORMAL, REMEMBER? I'M A HALF DEMON!"
"JUST SHUT UP AND GET ME THERE NOW! THE PAINS ARE GETTING WORSE BY THE SECOND! YUSUKE I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU!"
Yusuke stopped, right at the front of the hospital, as he held her in his arms. "You... do?" he stopped, as he stood there, looking at her, as a nurse came out with a wheelchair. He put keiko down in the seat, and looked at her, and then sat on the floor infront of her.
"YUSUKE, GET UP OFF THE GROUND! I NEED YOU IN THERE!"
He stood up and listened to Keiko, as he walked behind her.
"Keiko." He said, quietly
"I don't hate you, now get your ass over here and get me some pain killers!" Keiko said, as he immediately went to the nurses station.
Author's note: Yea, I tried to make this more of a funny chapter b/c I realized what a depression story it is, and omg... I already know how the next chapter is going to be... I'm going to cry as I'm typing it... omg... I can already see it. Lol. But I mean, I tried to lighten the mood a little bit in the story, and I thought hey... yusuke's a person who cuts class, doesn't talk to his mom like at all before I made it that way, and basically... what else would be funnier? Lol. So yea... it may seem corny, but I found it funny.
