Almost a year after they had Ai was when it happened. Kokoro was in the kitchen of her and Mitsuru's "home", simply a revamped pod, where they shortly moved in after having their baby. It was a way for them as a family, especially as a couple, to have some privacy. Being the first mother and having the first baby overwhelmed them with unnecessary attention. So, they moved out after Goro suggested to have one of the old pod carriers reused for a new purpose. They had found one a good walking distance away from the Nest, close enough to get help when needed but far enough for their much needed quiet.
It was nighttime and the family had just finished eating dinner. Kokoro was humming a sweet tune when she felt something warm slide down her leg. Confused, she looked down her dress to her legs and saw a trickle of blood. She gasped and went to look for where the bleeding was coming from to stop it. Grabbing a napkin, she wiped the trickle of blood on her leg and followed the blood trail all the way up underneath her dress to her underwear. There, she finally saw that her panties were soaked red.
Reflexively, she screamed. She wasn't feeling any pain, but seeing that much blood in a long time made her dizzy. In the nearby bedroom where Mitsuru was playing with his daughter, he heard Kokoro's sudden scream. Confused and full of fear for the worst, Mitsuru quickly placed his daughter in her crib and ran out to check on his wife. When he reached their kitchen, he saw Kokoro gripping the counter with one of her hands holding her dress up. Looking further, he saw the reason for her scream. Her private area was drenched in blood, some small drops of blood trickling down from the sides of her underwear down to her legs.
"Kokoro!" He yelled as he ran to his wife's side. He helped her to sit down and grabbed a towel to help stifle wherever she's bleeding from. At this point, Kokoro is crying from not knowing what was going on. She was obviously bleeding from her vagina, but she didn't know why. Her body started to shake, fearing that she might be dying or something. Mitsuru, on the other hand, was franticly trying his best to stop all the blood. The problem was he knew where it was coming from, but that required removing a certain piece of article to assess what was wrong with his beloved.
"Kokoro, baby, I need to remove your underwear to stop the blood," he said warily, not wanting to remove it for the sake of her dignity. Kokoro stopped crying for a minute, nodding to her husband, allowing him to remove it. The last time they saw each other naked was their first time almost two years ago. Both a little embarassed, Mitsuru looked away as he quickly removed her undies. Without looking, he covered her exposed body part with a towel. Once that was done he looked towards his wife once more, a slight blush evident on both their faces.
"Sweetheart, I need you to tell me what's wrong. Are you in any pain? Why are you bleeding?" Mitsuru questioned. His initial embarrassment fading as he now had to assess his loving wife. He couldn't bear to lose her.
"I-I'm fine dear. It doesn't hurt, but I was shocked to see so much blood. I'm sorry for worrying you," she answered, her eyes welling up towards the end. Looking at her husband's worried face made her sad. She didn't want to be a burden, even if it was an unexpected medical emergency. Hearing her answer, Mitsuru sighed in relief knowing that Kokoro wasn't in any pain. With his hand still holding the towel firmly between her sex, he leaned up from his kneeling position on the floor to place a long and comforting kiss on Kokoro's forehead. Whatever was going on with his love, he was not going to let her face it alone.
After a few more minutes, the bleeding stopped. The couple was relieved by this fact. They planned to go to the Nest first thing tomorrow morning to ask Nana and Ikuno about what was going on with her. The pair had cleaned up the mess, readying themselves for bed after that exhausting encounter. Kokoro went straight to the bathroom to change out of her now soiled clothes. As she rinsed her body of the dried blood, she decided to inspect her vagina for any tears or cuts. The outer parts seemed okay, nothing out of the ordinary. She speculated that the blood must've come from inside, like when she gave birth to Ai. She was worried that it was the result of the pregnancy, and that it might affect her chances of conceiving another baby in the future. This thought saddened her greatly as she only wished to have a big, happy family with the man she loved. She heard a soft knock on the bathroom door, followed by Mitsuru's muffled voice calling her name.
"I'm done papa," she called out, drying herself off with a towel. She wrapped up her body and opened up the door to see Mitsuru standing in front of it. He had his backed turned towards her, so once he heard the door open, he turned around. A slight blush appeared as he averted his eyes away from his wife's nearly naked body.
"Here are your clothes, mama," he shyly said handing Kokoro a new set of pajamas. Kokoro thanked him and closed the door once more to change. Mitsuru headed to their bedroom to wait for Kokoro. When she finally arrived, she seemed normal. Still a little pale from the earlier fright, but nothing else out of the usual. This relieved Mitsuru as he couldn't bear to see her sick. She hopped onto the bed beside her husband, cuddling close to him for his warmth. Mitsuru wrapped her up in his arms, never wanting to let go. Thankfully, their daughter was knocked out on the crib right next to theirs, and would hopefully stay asleep so her parents could have a good night's rest for once. Mitsuru slowly rubbed Kokoro's back while Kokoro stroked his hair. They had a final good night's kiss as the two drifted slowly to sleep, continuing to comfort each other.

Thank you for reading my first story! I know it's not much and there are A LOT of grammatical, punctuational, and even spelling errors. I always sucked at English which is blatantly obvious with my writing lol. I really loved this anime, especially this cute wholesome pair, and I wanted to try writing fanfiction for the first time. I'm on this site like every other day haha, and I'm now realizing how hard it actually is being a writer. Mad respect to my favorite authors out there, they are really amazing artists. Anyways, I'll be continuing this story whenever I have free time. This story was purely made out of fun and also a way to help me develop my writing. I hope you guys enjoyed, and please review! Thanks again :)
