Heya! I am so glad you all liked it! And for that I will reward you by continueing! So here goes for chapter 2!

Chapter 2: What Have I Done?

"WHAT!" Yzak shouted so loudly that everyone in the room now directed their attention to the young couple. Kimiko was now regretting telling him at this point in time. "What do you MEAN you are PREGNANT!" Yzak continued shouting, not noticing that he was getting strange glances from the other guests, including a guard that was considering throwing him out.

Kimiko turned red under the gazes of everyone there. "Look, Yzak, we should discuss this later." She tried to say as calmly as possible.

"LATER!" Yzak huffed. "But……..but how is this possible!" He found the nearest chair and plopped down in it with a confused and lost look upon his face.

Kimiko couldn't help but smile as she took a chair next to him, not meeting anyone's eyes because she was too afraid to do so. Yzak could be so embarrassing sometimes. She had a wry smile as she said, "Well, Yzak, it is entirely possible because you remember the night we had together before you left?"

Yzak sighed into the palm of his hand. "Yes, Kimiko, I know it is possible, it's just, how could it happen at a time like this, and to break it to me right now?" Yzak was just plain overwhelmed and was somewhat relieved by Dearka and Miriallia coming back upon hearing the news at such a far distance away.

Dearka had a highly amused look as he said, "Well, Yzak. It looks as though you are about to join the ranks of fatherhood!" Dearka was excited about it, but Yzak was less than thrilled.

He couldn't believe it. He was going to be a father! And then to have it told to him in this manner was unbelievable! It was just too much for him. If he hadn't have been right there, right then, he probably would've broken down and cried, just cried. He had been planning on making all the way to being one of Plant's chairmen and then from there, who knows how far he could've gone. But now, now he had other responsibilities to attend to. Sure, he had always thought they would have kids. But years later, after they had settles into their new marriage, not just a measly year afterwards. He hadn't even had time to really be with Kimiko alone, and now he was going to have to share her with some…….some…..little thing! Oh! This was too much for him!

Dearka noticed some of the mental anguish of his friend and recognized it. He laid a firm hand on his shoulder and uttered, "Hey, buddy, it'll be alright. I know just how you feel."

Yzak turned to look up at Dearka with an cynical look on his face. "Yeah, right!"

Dearka picked up his hand and clapped it down again, even harder to get his friend's attention. "Listen, Yzak, I KNOW how you feel. I am a father, after all. Mir didn't spare any time or feelings when she told me, let me tell ya!" Dearka shook his head at the not-so-fond memory of how Miriallia had told him she was pregnant, with twins no less!

Yzak sighed. "I know. I guess I know." He said shaking his head. He would've stormed out of there with Kimiko being drug behind him if it wasn't for all the women who seemed to have flocked to Kimiko's side upon the announcement that she was pregnant.

Meanwhile, Kimiko was more than able to see the confused and upset look that took its place on Yzak's stern face. "Oh, I wish I knew what he was thinking" She thought, not hearing a word of congratulations from any of the women surrounding her. " And Yet, I don't really think I do" Kimiko was worried, worried about how he felt about their future child, how he was going to react when they got home. She was slowly becoming more in dread of going home with him, alone. He was awfully upset and Yzak was less than pleasant when he was upset. These thoughts filled her mind so fully that she did not even hear the words of her friends.

"Kimiko! Kimiko, HEEEELLLOOOOO!" Cagalli cried out to her drawing her attention finally away from Yzak and Dearka.

"Oh, sorry." Kimiko looked as though she was about to cry, her eyes watery and her mouth tilted into a depressed position. "What were you saying?" Her voice trembled.

Miriallia looked over to where her husband and Yzak were sitting, noticing that that was where Kimiko's gave was. "Oh, Kimiko. It will be alright. You should be happy! Come on!" Miriallia tried to change the situation to slightly more cheerful aura. "Come with us and we will get you some food. I hear the chocolate cake is really good!"

Kimiko smiled up at them with an extremely weak and forced smile. "Ok." She then got up and strolled away with Miriallia and Cagalli, so she no longer had to look at the pained expression her husband was a that time wearing.

Once over by the buffet, Miriallia and Cagalli were filling a plate, which was Kimiko's so full that she never thought she would be able to dig to the bottom, but she didn't say anything, for her mind was so distracted with thought of Yzak and the baby……..the baby….

"Kiki! Snap out of it!" Cagalli demanded. "Look! We got you the best things here. Everything else isn't any good. Cagalli laughed as she handed Kimiko the plate that had to be piled about four inches high with food.

"Here, let's sit down here" . Miriallia took out a chair from a table near the buffet for Kimiko to sit down in.

"Thank you." Kimiko said softly as she sat down and stared at her plate. She didn't feel much like eating now. She couldn't stand not knowing what Yzak was thinking. Was he mad, upset, or at least somewhat happy at knowing that he was going to have a kid? Oh, she wished she hadn't have told him this way, that she had told him later, in the privacy of their own home. But he had just been so………so infuriating! He had been ignoring her and ignoring her and she just couldn't take it any more! She had to tell him before the say was out and she had tried so many times and he had stopped her. She was mad! And so she told him in the worst possible way. She wouldn't have blamed him if he was upset with her, if he was shocked. "Oh, how could I have been so impulsive, so foolish!" She asked herself as she wiped a stray tear out of her eye just before it was to fall down her cheek.

Miriallia's eyes softened as she noticed this and said, "Oh, Kimiko", she reached out with her hand and grasped Kimiko's in hers. "I know. You don't know what he is thinking yet and it makes you worry, doesn't it?"

Kimiko nodded her head. "Uh-huh"

"We know." Said Cagalli in a surprisingly sympathetic manner.

"Listen, Kiki, you should control yourself and play the good ambassador's wife part right now. But later, this evening, when you get back home with Yzak, you talk it over with him. After doing so, you should have a pretty good idea of how he feels. Tomorrow, you come over to my house, and Cagalli and Lacus will come too, and we can all have a little talk, ok?" Miriallia said soothingly. "But right now, you just need to put on a strong and happy face.

Kimiko wiped one last tear away and said, "I know. Ok."

She stood up, leaving her untouched plate, and strolled over to join her husband as he received congratulations for two things now. Not only had he accomplished the task of making a treaty, but also was now going to be a father. And now she had to endure all those compliments, not knowing how Yzak felt. But, she withstood it without collapsing into tears throughout the entire evening and Yzak seemed to be able to keep from snapping completely, keeping a pretty good hold on his tongue.

But that wasn't the hardest part. It was the drive home after the ceremony that was excruciatingly painful as she had to ride home with Yzak, alone, in the car. It would not have been nearly as bad if he had just snapped her head off and gotten it over with. But no. He had to keep entirely silent with a blank expression on his face, not giving anything away. He must bethinking to himself, but what?

Little did she know that he wasn't really thinking about anything. He was in entire and utter shock. He still had not gotten over the fact that he had been given a metal for the treaty being signed. He was still surprised that he had gotten it signed for he was not exactly the most diplomatic person on the face of the Earth. For that matter, he was not diplomatic at all and had been surprised when he got the job as official liaison between the Plants and ORB. It was all too unbelievable. He was surprised that he had made it through without choking one of the other diplomats to death, for that was his natural nature. It should have been Dearka who had gotten that position, but then they couldn't do that with him pulling that stupid stunt back when the war was still raging on, when he had protected the Archangel. Sure, he had been promoted since then and regained all his former titles. But ZAFT would not let him speak for them because of what he had done. So, Yzak was their next choice and he had actually come through for them, despite his flamatory nature. It had all been because of Kimiko. Without her, he knew, he probably never would have made it through the very first day sitting in those small conference rooms with a bunch of pig headed ambassadors and diplomats. But she had given him the strength, the tolerance of making it through.

And now! And now she had done this! In truth, he had not been too sure of what exactly she had done, just that she had done something, and he thought it infuriated him. Though he wasn't entirely sure. It wasn't exactly the fact that she had told him she was pregnant, although that in itself was enough to surprise him, but it was how and when she told him; at his own metal ceremony, just as he was saying he was glad at that time that he didn't have any children. "OH! How could she do this to me?" Yzak huffed. "To spring it on me Now!" he shook his head which was the only sign of any emotion he gave her.

Just at that moment, though, they drove up into their driveway and both got out, both in dread of what would happen once they reached the confines of their own home, what things would be said, how they each would react.

Kimiko almost shook when she walked through their abode's doorway. "Oh, god I just wish I knew what he is going to say."

Kimiko took off her coat and hung it up in the hall closet. She started up the stairs, knowing she would make it up before he finally burst. She almost did, though. He had tried to control himself far too long, though, for him to refrain any longer. "WHY!WHY, Kimiko?" Yzak didn't bother to take off his coat, but instead approached her on the stairs just as he was. "Why did you have to tell me like that?"

Kimiko grasped her hands together, tugging at her fingers while searching for words. "I…..I don't know, Yzak"

Yzak's eyes got so big she was afraid he was going to burst just like a coke bottle if shook too much. "YOU DON'T KNOW? How could you NOT know!" He shouted at her.

Kimiko cringed under his words but puckered up enough to say, "I guess it was because I had tried to tell you so many times since you got back home, but you just kept ignoring me or telling me later! So, naturally, I got mad and frustrated and…….and I just had to tell you no matter how much I knew you didn't want to hear it!….."

"Well, you're right! I didn't want to hear it! And you doing that right after I just got through saying how much you had helped me and stood by my side and how much I loved you! Oh, how can you be so…….so…..INFURIATING!" He yelled one last time as he stormed down the stairs and out the door. He had kept his coat on, so he didn't bother to stop, either. It was almost as though he knew the outcome of their "discussion". And so, he left, Kimiko collapsed on the stairs in a fit of tears, and he as infuriated as a bear who had just been awoken from his winterly sleep.

Yzak revved up the engine with so much force that it almost didn't start. But it did, and he was out of there so fast that you swore he was late for something real important. At first, he didn't know where he was going, he was just going to be going and to get away from her and the situation that revolved around her.

But then he remembered Dearka's words just as she had been walking back to their table at the ceremony. "And remember, Yzak, I am here if you need anything." He swerved his car around a corner much too fast and somehow shortly found himself in front of the Elsman residence.

For a few moments, he just waited in his car, wondering if he could go home, or if she had already locked him out, which wouldn't surprise him. She had probably put a chair on front of the door to keep him from getting in with his key. So, he got out of his car and strolled up to the Elsman residence, rung the doorbell, and waited for an answer. He got it only a few moments later when Dearka came to the door. Dearka didn't look in the least surprised to see him. "I had a feeling you'd be coming. In fact, I had Mir go ahead and put sheets on the bed in the spare bedroom." Dearka said with his usually silly quirk around his mouth.

Yzak never said a word as Miriallia led him to the guestroom. She gave him a disapproving look as she closed the door behind him. She had hoped that Dearka had been wrong when he told her to set up the guestroom, that Yzak would for once act in a mellow headed way that she knew, deep down, he was capable of. But now that she had seen him at their door and had led him to the spare bedroom, she was very disappointed with him. Who knew what Kimiko must be going through right now, what words he had said to her? She hoped Dearka was going to give him a well deserved scolding in the morning.

But little did she know that Yzak was already feeling bad. He borrowed some of Dearka's night cloths and was laying in bed. He tried to go to sleep, but all his thoughts were focusing on what had happened that evening, what he had done, what she had done, and her. He longed to have her in his arms, to hold her, and kiss, her, and feel her silky smooth hair between his fingers that night. He had longed to do so for three months. But instead. He was laying in Dearka's spare bedroom, alone. "Oh, god! What have I done!" He scolded himself as he finally drifted off to sleep.

I hope you aren't too upset with me, but I had to create conflict before we go down to the cute and funny stuff, LOL! It just wouldn't be real if I didn't.

So, Yzak regrets what he did, in getting ina fight with Kiki and then storming off. But will he feel the same way tomorrow? Will they be able to make up or will this al end in tragedy? And what kind of advice will Dearka offer him? Question, quesitons. Well, in the next chapter, you will find out all the answers, so stay tuned! I hope to update soon!
