Chapter 2 – To the doctor!

Setsuna suddenly woke up about six o'clock next morning when Sara jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
"Sara? Sara, how are you feeling!" he yelled after her.
"Oh, just peachy!" she yelled back only to be interrupted by another wave of nausea.
"This does it, you're going to the doctor today."
Sara came stumbling out of the bathroom and Setsuna hugged her, careful of not causing her to throw up right there and then.
"Even if it's just the flu, you're definitely going to see the doctor."
"But…"
"No buts – you're going, and that's final."

"Sara Mudou?"
"Yes, that's me." Said Sara and stood up.
"Hi, my name is doctor Watanabe." He said and shook her hand.
She glanced back. "Are you coming, or what?"
Setsuna looked bewildered. "Ehm… You're sure you want me there?"
She glared at him. "Of course I am!"
"Excuse me." The doctor interrupted. "May I ask who you are?"
"I'm Setsuna Mudou." He said without thinking.
"Ah, the husband then?"
The siblings almost choked on their breaths.
"Yeah…" Setsuna managed to say at last. "I'm her husband."

Not exactly right… But it's easier this way – no unnecessary questions.

Sara gave him a smile with just a little tint of sadness, took his hand and followed the doctor.
He silently tried to comfort her by gently squeezing her hand and got a bright smile in return this time. She quickly gave him a light peck on the cheek.
Watanabe had turned and now stood and smiled fatherly at them.
"Ah, young love…" He chuckled.
They both blushed.
"If you step into this room, I'll be right with you." He said and went around the corner.
They walked into the room and sat down on the chairs.
Setsuna looked right into Sara's eyes. "Why were you sad when he thought that I was your husband?" He asked, already suspecting what the answer would be.
Sara looked away, looked everywhere except for at Setsuna. "Because we can never have that…" She then said silently and met his gaze with eyes full of sorrow.

I knew it…

"I know that I'm ridiculous, that it's just a formality, but I think that all girls dream of getting married and having children – and I can't have that." A single tear ran down her cheek.
The young boy stroke away the tear and kissed her gently. "I know… Don't you think that I wanted all that for us too?" He shifted her so she sat in his lap, wrapped up in his strong arms.
"Marriage is such a silly thing, but… If I could, I would give you all you wanted. At least we have each other."
Sara smiled and gently stroked his bangs. "I'm just silly… I don't know what's wrong with me – I have everything I want right here." She said, kissing him just as the doctor finally came back.
"Sorry for interrupting, but maybe we should get on with the examination so you to can get home and continue that thought?" He grinned.
Beet red, Sara nodded.
"Now, what is it that is wrong with you?"
"Well… For the last two days I've been throwing up most of the time, barely being able to keep anything down. My stomach aches almost all the time too."
Watanabe glanced at Sara. "Mhm… Have you had any fever?"
"No… I rarely get sick, and when I do I usually get a very high fever with it. That's what's confusing me."
"Well then... I have a slight suspicion to what it could be." He reached her a small cup. "If you could fill this with some urine..."
Sara frowned, confused. "Sure, if you need to…" She walked into one of the small bathrooms.

A comfortable silence laid over the room, but after a couple of minutes Sara came back with the cup – slightly embarrassed.
"Well, that's all. Now we just have to wait a few minutes and then we're done here." Doctor Watanabe said.
They small talked while they waited. Doctor Watanabe seemed to have a great sense of humour and was very easy to talk to.
"And now it's done!" He suddenly said and looked at the test.
Setsuna and Sara saw his frown, a frown that then grew into a grin.
"Congratulations!"
"Congratulations? Congratulations to what?" Setsuna was confused. What the hell did he mean by that? A sickness couldn't possibly be good, could it?
"Congratulations to you being parents of course." The doctor's grin grew when he saw the youth's confusion.
Parents? Me and Sara? A baby...? Setsuna didn't believe his ears. It couldn't be right, he must be joking, he and Sara couldn't be parents – it wasn't possible!
Sara tried to formulate a sensible meaning. "Parents? Baby...? How... When...?"
"I would suspect that you two know that better than me." Watanabe teased. "I suspected it from the beginning, you have all the symptoms, I'm surprised that neither of you thought of it."

It's because we somehow thought that it wasn't possible for us to have a baby together. A baby... We're going to have a baby...

Setsuna finally was able to make the words come out of his mouth. "A baby... Sara, we're going to have a baby!" He quickly embraced her and kissed her all over her face.
She giggled tremendously. "Setsuna, stop it – it tickles!"
He grinned and reached out his tongue at her. "I know it does."
She sneered at him. "You do, do you?" With that she flung forward and started to tickle him.
"Gah! Stop it!" I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Doctor Watanabe chuckled as Setsuna slowly started to breath normally again.
"Well.. How can we find out how far a long she is?"
"We can book another appointment in four weeks and do an ultrasound if you want. Other than that, it's just a little mathematics for you to do. Just count from Sara's last period and when you've had sexual intercourse, and you should be able to figure out approximately when she got pregnant." He grinned at their embarrassment. "Well then, this is all for this time. I'll book you for another appointment for Tuesday in four weeks."
They finished their business and walked out in somewhat of a daze.

Setsuna took a deep breath of the fresh summer air. "So..."
"Yeah... So..." Sara looked terribly confused. "What're we going to do now?"
"What do you want to do?" He glanced at her.
"I... I don't know... I know we shouldn't, but..."
"I know... We shouldn't, but... But I want this child." Setsuna's voice was full of determination.
Sara's happy smile could compete with the sun at that moment. She flung herself in his arms.
"I love you so much!"
"I love you too." He smiled and kissed her lovingly. He laid his right hand on her still (not surprisingly) flat stomach. "Our baby..."
She laid her own hand over his. "Yes... Our baby – and this time it's for real."
They embraced and made their way home again.

"Are you crazy! I'm not naming a possible son of mine Raphael – I hate that name!"
"Oh.. You do? Gee, I wonder why..." Sara rolled her eyes.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Setsuna narrowed his eyes and stepped closer to her.
"Oh, nothing special... Just that you're jealous." She grinned triumphantly.
"Jealous at what! I just don't like that perverted son of a bitch that calls himself an angel."
"Sweetie... I hate to be the one that breaks it to you – but he is an angel."
He glowered at her. "Haha, very funny..."
"Yeah, I thought so too." She giggled. "So not Raphael – how about..."
"Sara... We have about eight or nine months to decide what we're going to name our child, we don't have to rush it, you know."
"But..."
"Please? Can we at least take a break? You've been at it for an hour now..." Setsuna started to look very tired.
Sara sighed. "Okay... But don't think that you're getting away!"
Setsuna laughed and gave her a hug. "Have I ever told you that you're really cute when you get 'angry'?"
"Just a couple of hundred times." She smiled and kissed him deeply.
He returned her smile. "Then I haven't said it often enough..."


AN: I have never, ever been pregnant, so I'm not entirely sure about how the procedure goes. I hope it's not all too wrong here. I'm not sure how the doctors appointments are handled either (in Japan that is) because I'm one hundred percent Swedish and have never been in Japan. sighs deeply

Thanks again to one of my best friends and beta reader Cerridwene. More Fushigi Yuugi to the people! Or at least more Nuriko to us! grins
