"Class dismissed," Mayu-chan sensei said. "You better be back here after lunch is over."

Students with navy blue and white uniforms filed out of the classroom one by one. Arisa ran while dodging the crowd of students and finally caught up to Tohru.

"Good…I caught up…to you," she said heavily breathing. "Tohru I need to talk to youuuuahh." Her hand over her stomach while experiencing piercing pain. Tohru noticed this.

"What's wrong Uo are you sick?" Tohru panicked.

"Tohru." She called.

"Do you need me to go get the nurse? I can go find—"

"Tohru!" she screamed. She gave Tohru the look. That look meant that something was wrong, and there was some bad news to be told. And believe me, it's bad.

They walked outside into the courtyard, and in a moments time Arisa was on the ground, now experiencing crippling pain. Tohru just happened to notice that Arisa was no longer beside her.

"Uo!" through yelled while rushing over to help her up. "Are you okay? What happened?"

"I'm fine I just got a little ache for a moment." She pushed Tohru's hand away while she clutched her hand over her stomach grunting in pain.

"Uo, what's wrong tell me now." Tohru got very serious (first time she was ever serious in her lifetime) for the moment.

"Tohru I'm…I'm pr—" was all that she could say before she was hit with a pain that left her on the ground, bleeding (figure it out).

"Oh my god, Umm…somebody help me please!" Tohru cried out desperately in need of some help. Mayu-chan sensei came running to her call.

"What happened?" she questioned trying to help Arisa off the ground.

"I don't know she brought me out here to tell me something and she fell over and she said she had an ache and she was in pain in the stomach and she's bleeding and I don't know what to do and—"

"Hey hey, Tohru," Mayu grabbed Tohru's shoulder trying to calm her down. "Just do me a favor and go get the nurse."

"Okay." She acknowledged. And ran off through the courtyard entrance.

Tohru ran like she never ran before. Well, actually she ran like it was her own life in danger. She tried to take shortcuts through hallways that usually students barely travel down. But today it seemed like everybody in the world was crowding the pathways. She tried to avoid bumping in to people until she ran straight into Kyo.

"Oh I'm sorry I'm really sorry I didn't mean to-Kyo?" she looked up into crimson eyes. "Kyo I'm sorry but I really have to go." She walked by him but he grabbed her arm.

"Hold up," he said. "You're panicking. Why."

"Uo's sick." Tohru said.

Kyo literally almost had a heart attack when he heard the word, 'sick'.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know she was fine one moment and the next moment she was on the ground and she was bleeding and-"

"Where is she now?" Kyo said in a malicious like manor.

"She's outside in the courtyard." Tohru said so close to crying.

They made it outside to the courtyard to see a bunch of students all in a huddle around the paramedics and a half-dead Arisa (spongebob: oh nooo!) being carried to the nurse's office.

"Move please, get out of the way." The man said while pushing people aside trying to keep her from falling. Tohru followed. Kyo tried to follow them but Mayu-chan sensei was standing in his way.

"I need to go." Kyo said firmly.

"You can't," she said. He got angry.

"Look. You don't understand I need to go." It took her a few seconds to figure out what he meant by needing to go.

"So you and Uo are…" Mayu stopped and stared at Kyo. The look said it all. "You're free to go." Kyo nodded in gratitude and ran off to see to his love of his life.

Kyo stood outside of the nurse's office, worried (yes even hotheads can worry) as one worried could get. Kyo paced up and down the hallway, trying to wait for someone to emerge to tell him something. Finally he got fed up with it and barged in to see Tohru sitting in a chair beside the bed, and an unconscious Arisa lying down with Tohru's hand entwined with hers.

"Kyo," Tohru said while gazing up at him. "I need to tell you something, but I think you should sit down first."

He looked off. "I'll stand."

"You might not take it so well." She said.

"Is it really that bad?"

"As some might say, yes it is bad."

"I can tell him myself…" Arisa said grunting in pain.

"Arisa!" Tohru said joyfully. "You gave me a scare there."

"Tohru…" she said giving her the look of privacy-please.

Tohru looked over at Kyo and stood up. "I understand." And in a few seconds, she was out the door heading back to class. Kyo turned back to Arisa to find her sitting up, hand clasped over her stomach signaling that she was still in severe pain.

"Kyo I'm pregnant." She muttered. Kyo didn't quite hear right (although I'm pretty sure he did).

"What did you say?"

"I said I'm two months pregnant." She said louder so he could hear. "And I almost had a miscarriage."

Kyo at the moment was literally appalled. Not at the fact that she almost had miscarriage, but at the fact that she's been two months pregnant and she's just now telling him about it.

"How long have you known?" he asked. Not even caring about the fact that she could have lost her child.

"for a while now." She looked up at him. His eyes were as cold as the day they first met (and started hating each other).

"So why am I just now finding out." Kyo said with a attitude.

"I was scared okay," she explained, sounding close to crying. "and I didn't know what to do."

Kyo got frustrated. "You know what, it doesn't matter if you got scared or not you should've came and told me."

Arisa pushed herself out of the bed, she nearly fell off because she didn't have any energy, plus she was still in pain. Kyo helped her to stay up.

"you're gonna help me right?"

"help you with what?"

"help with our child. I mean since, you're like the only person I've been with."

"of course I'm gonna help."

"good, cuz I'm not gonna let you be a deadbeat father."

"who said I was gonna be."

It remained silent for a few minutes, as they both stared out of the window down on the courtyard. Arisa felt the overcoming of sleep hit her so she rested her head on Kyo's shoulder and closed her eyes.

"Let's go home, Kyo." She whispered.

"Yeah, let's," he answered, looking down at her already sleeping form. And in one swoop, he picked her up and carried her out of the room.
