ok. hello all my faithful readers! and if you're not faithful readers, well, i need more faithful readers! sorry for the delays, im in the middle of a school year and i'm in honors classes, so i have a ton of homework and projects to do. and if anyone finds anything wrong with the timing of the pregnancy and anything that happens, forgive me. having never been pregnant myself (still in school people) i have no idea when these things would happen like when she would start to show and when she would start getting insane cravings. so just judge for yourselves how far along she is.also, ive decided this is going to be kyoru just to let you know. i used to like yukiru but hes getting arrogant in the manga. important note! big thanks to my beloved beta, Star Sapphirex, for putting up with my extreme errors-ness,and also forgetfulness as i forgot to mention her first post this chapter. i had to go back and re-do my final editing cause the link was broken when i saved. so sorry! please forgive me!

"Hm...", so far, that had been all Hatori had managed to say. He had been called over to investigate, bringing Haru and Momiji along with him, after Yuki had walked in on Kyo and Tohru's hug (that should have but did not result in an orange cat). He hadn't even needed to ask what was going on because as soon as they walked in the door, Momiji had pounced on Tohru and not turned into a rabbit.

Flashback+
"Tohru! It's so good to see you!" Momiji said, jumping up and down. Then he grabbed her and when he didn't turn into a bunny, he said, "Hey, why am I not a mockmock (a/n sorry I just miss Momiji using German it was so adorable! It's German for bunny pronounced mookmook)."

Kyo hit him on the head. "Hey runt, you shouldn't be jumping all over Tohru!"

Momiji begins to adorably tear up, "Wah! Tohru! Kyo hit me!"

"He's right momitchi." Shigure added. "Tohru-chan is in a delicate condition right now. You don't wanna hurt her or the baby do you?"

"Oh no! I'm sorry Tohru-chan! Are you ok?" Momiji's face goes from whiny to concern.

"Yes Momiji-kun, I'm fine. Thank you." Tohru gives her usual smile.

"Can we please get back to the matter at hand?"hattori asked in an annoyed tone.
+End of Flashback+

Hatori had yet to find the cause. At first, he thought that maybe what they had done had not actually been considered a hug, so he asked them to hug again. Both, blushing, obliged with the same result.

"So,what's going on?"

Hatori scratched his head. "You know, I really don't know."

Kyo exclaimed, "You don't know!"

"Yes Kyo, I don't know. Unless..." Hatori narrows his eyes in speculation, "No…it's impossible! But, we're all here..."

"What? What's impossible? Who's all here?" Kyo asked exasperatedly.

"Well, the only thing I can think of is that when women are pregnant into our family and they don't activate the curse, it's supposed to mean that the baby is going to be cursed."

"But, all the members of the zodiac have been born..."Shigure said confused.

"That's my problem." Hattori replied.

"Hm."

'Akito has been well as of late. Could that possibly mean...?'Hattori thought, and then said aloud,"What if Akito has passed on his position as god to his child?"

They all turned to look at him. "Is that even possible?" Kyo asked with a quizzical look.

"Doesn't the previous god have to die in order for that to happen?" Yuki had a similar look.

Hatori thought for a moment. "Come to think of it, no god has ever had children before."

'My child is going to be god?' Tohru thought incredulously. Kyo noticed she looked rather downcast. She was looking at the floor, deep in thought. 'Man, Tohru seems pretty upset'

"What's wrong, Tohru?" He asked. They all turned to look at her. When everyone noticed how upset the previously ignored tohru looked, they all be came worried.

"Well it just that…umm…ah, I mean…"

"What Tohru-chan?" Momiji asked worriedly.

"What if my baby ends up like a-Akito-san..." They all understood at that.

"Don't worry Tohru." Yuki, like everyone, knew how evil Akito was, even as a small child.(a/n akito i mean... 'as a small child akito was evil' not 'yuki knew he was evil even though hes a small child' cause hes not.)"We'll make sure he or she will never become such a cold, cruel monster."

"Yeah! We'll make sure your baby is a kind person, just like his momma." Momiji told her.

Tohru smiled, "Thank you all. I shouldn't have worried. I'm sure I'm just being silly." However, even though she knew her baby would be raised by such a kind loving family, the worry still nagged at the back of her mind. She shook herself, 'Oh come on. He's going to have 14 great aunts and uncles! What am I worrying for?'

Later that night...+
"Well," Shigure yawned, "I'm going to bed. Goodnight all." Hatori, Haru, and Momiji had left not too soon before. Everyone was now preparing for bed. Tohru went up to her room but after half an hour of tossing and turning she decided she wasn't going to get to sleep anytime soon so she sat up in bed and decided to think about a few things.

Meanwhile, Kyo was on the roof, like he oh so often is, thinking about what he was told to do. 'Damn Akito.

Not only did he have to go and do something so horrible to Tohru, but now I have to tell everyone it's my child! I don't even know how Tohru feels about this. I mean sure, she said she was ok with it, but why would she want people thinking that I'm the father of her child? Not that I would mind if it was... gah! What am I thinking!' He heard Tohru fretting in her room, so he decided to pay her a visit.

Tohru jumped when she heard a knock on her window. 'Who could that be?' Tohru thought in her usual naive self, not even considering the fact that her bedroom was on the second floor and most

people could not reach that high.(a/n pretend the roof of the porch is under her window so hes standing on that) when she opened the curtains there stood Kyo.

"Oh Kyo-kun! It's you! Come in!" and she opened the window. 'Who else would it be?' Kyo thought but went in anyway.

"So what brings you here, Kyo-kun?" Tohru asked, "You should be in bed!"

"Well, I could say the same for you." He responded sarcastically.

"Oh, um…ah, you see I was-" stammered Tohru innocently.

Kyo put up a hand.

"It's all right. I was on the roof and I heard you moving around in here, so I thought maybe something was bothering you."

"Well, I was just thinking about...my baby," states Tohru as she gently rubs her stomach. Kyo realized he should have known.

Tohru continues,"You see, it's just that, even though I'm sure he or she will have a loving family, I can't help but think they'll be missing out on something."

Kyo was confused. "What do you mean? What something?"

"He'll have 13 aunts and uncles and a loving mommy, but he won't have a ...a daddy."

"Oh." Kyo blushed, that being approximately what he had been thinking about himself. "Well I'm sure if you wanted to, most of the Sohmas would be happy to act as his father." 'Myself included,' he added in his mind.

"I guess so...but I don't want to be a burden on any of them. I mean most of the Sohmas I know are still in high school and probably not ready to be fathers yet, Hatori-san and Kazuma-san are always busy and, well, no offence to Shigure-san or Aya-san, but I don't think they'd make very good fathers," Tohru catches herself, "Oh! I can't believe I just said that! Please don't tell them, Kyo-kun."

Kyo smirked, "Don't worry I won't, though you're probably right."

"And Uo-chan and Hana-chan, they'll be mad at you because they'll think you're skipping out on me unless..." she started softly.

Kyo's mind started racing. 'Could she be suggesting what I think she is?' he thought, 'no I must be crazy. Still...'

"Um... Tohru?" He started tentatively and sat down next to her on the bed. She looked up. "If you wanted me to, I could... I could be his father." he looked down, wishing he had never mentioned it.

Tohru was silent. "Would you really do that for me Kyo-kun?" she whispered.

Kyo was surprised. He hadn't expected her to react like this, but he nodded.

"Then yes. I would be very grateful to you if you were to act as my child's father." Kyo looked up at her disbelievingly. He saw that she had

tears in her eyes, but she had a smile on her face that was brighter than it had been every since 'that day'. Their eyes locked and he realized how close they were. His heart was pounding like a wild drum as he moved closer to her.

The more rational part of his mind was screaming 'what the hell are you doing you idiot! You're insane!' but he pushed it away and decided he didn't much like the rational part of his mind anymore.

Tohru, yes Tohru, closed the gap between them and their lips met. 'her lips are so soft...' Kyo thought. He didn't know what, but something just felt right about this innocent little kiss. He committed to memory everything about this moment. The look of her room, the way she tasted, like strawberries, and the full moon and stars shining outside her window.

Tohru was shocked that she had been the one to finally close the distance but soon found herself not caring. She was thinking about everything and nothing at once, and couldn't hold on to a complex thought for more than a second. 'he smells so wonderful... like a forest in spring rightafter it's rained.'

"Well, what have we here?" they both jumped. "Kyo-kun, how could you take advantage of sweet innocent Tohru? You snuck in to her room and were planning on having your way with her, weren't you?" Kyo looked mortified as he slowly turned to the door and there stood Shigure.

- aunts and uncles are the 11 nice zodiac(that inclues kyo!)and uo and hana and kazuma cause hes cool andtohru wouldnt want to exclude anyone.(i minused rin and kureno cause she doesnt really know them.)
