Hiei looked at her with wide eyes. "W-what?" He asked. Tomoe blushed a bit and smiled. "I think I might be pregnant." She said again. Hiei held her shoulders and looked her in the eye. "How do you know? How can you tell?" "My instincts tell me so." She muttered. "Are your instincts defective?" He asked. She looked at him with the look. (You know...THE look) "No, they're not." She replied. Hiei leaned back on the tree. "God..." he said covering his eyes. Tomoe looked down at the ground. "I'm sorry if you don't want it." She said quietly. Hiei looked at her like she was crazy and grabbed her hand. "Don't say that. That isn't the problem. I'll raise the child with you."
Tomoe looked at him with tears of joy in her eyes. She threw herself into Hiei's arms. "Thank you. I won't be a burden. I promise." She said pressing into his chest. Hiei stared at her shocked, and slowly let his arms rest on her back. "You were never a burden in the first place." He whispered into her ear. Hiei held Tomoe in his arms, not saying a word, taking in the recent event. "What have I done? This is going to be hell." He thought.
---------------------------------
As the weeks past Tomoe's stomach grew, and so did the tension around the temple. "Hiei's gonna be a daddy!" Yusuke said pulling on Hiei's cheeks. "You must be thrilled!" Botan said cheerfully. Hiei simply ignored them. "Well, at least you won't have to wait long for it to be born Hiei. What with the birth process and all." Kurama said.
"What? What do you mean?" Kuwabara asked giving Kurama an odd look. "You see Kuwabara, since a baby shares just about everything when it's inside the mother, like food and such, it's almost like the baby is a part of the mother. It's the same deal if it's a demon but demons have more power than humans, so they share power with the mother, and that speeds up the process of birth by at least six months." Kurama explained.
Everyone looked at him with understanding eyes. "So that's how it works with demons huh?" Yusuke said putting a hand to his chin. "Come to think of it how long has it been?" Kuwabara asked. "Ten weeks." Hiei grunted. "Wha?! You're kidding me! That's two and a half months! The baby could come any day now!" Botan said standing up from her spot on the couch. "Hn. It's just a baby." Hiei replied. "Just ta baby? Then why do I have to lend you my spare rooms? Do I need to kick you out if it's just a baby?" Genkai yelled from the top of the stairs where she could hear them clearly.
Hiei shoulders sunk and he looked away. Genkai looked satisfied that she'd won and walked back up the stairs. Just then Tomoe walked through the door with Keiko, Mihana and Yukina at her sides. "I'm fine! You don't have to follow me everywhere!" Tomoe said going to the couch and sitting down next to Hiei. Keiko and Yukina went behind her. "I think we do. It's best." Keiko replied. "Even though Hiei should be the one going with you! Since he is the father!" Mihana said glaring at Hiei. Hiei growled at her and the two began to have their own glaring contest.
"No, it's okay! It really is!" Tomoe said waving a hand in front of her. "As long as you have someone with you, you should be safe." Yukina said placing a pillow behind Tomoe's back. Tomoe nodded thank you and Yukina dismissed herself to her room. Tomoe gasped and then smiled. "Hiei! It's kicking!" She said. He glanced towards her. She took his hand and placed it on her stomach. "See?" she asked still smiling. Hiei felt little thumps in his hand. He didn't show any glee on the outside what so ever. But on the inside, he was happily smiling.
Outside a cloaked figure stood quietly and ran out of the bushes.
-In Makai- (the Demon World)
The cloaked figure from the temple ran into a stone castle and stopped in front of a door. "Permission to enter!" It yelled. "Granted." A voice said from inside the doors. The doors opened slowly showing someone sitting a stone bench. The figure approached the person. "Master, it seems that Hiei, the one you seek, has a woman. She's with child." You could not see the person sitting down clearly. The room was dark and covered the face. But you could tell that they had just smiled. "Thank you. This will prove very in useful in my revenge. Now leave!" The cloaked figure ran out of the room and shut the doors. Leaving the one in the room alone.
"Hiei....you will pay."
