Chapter 55
After giving as much blood as either of them could, Hanabusa unhooks them both from the transfusion. As Zero tries to get up, he feels a bit weak himself and has to sit back down.
"I told you, it would take a bit from you. You will need to replenish yourself. I didn't take enough to kill either of you, but enough that you need blood and soon. "Hanaubasa says handing Zero a glass of blood.
"So for how long are we going to need to do this? She looks more like herself now." Zero asks.
"What I just did was to stabilize her, there is no way either of you could do this daily and as much as she needs. For you two to do this for the next two and half months wouldn't work to any of your favor. Not even you Kaname, you will both see within a few hours she will be back to what she was. The only hope is to deliver the child and get it out of her. That way her body can heal and go back to normal." Hanabusa states.
"I am good with whatever you feel is necessary. I want her safe and back to normal. " Kaname answers.
"I feel the same, but at the same time, what about the baby? What happens to our child? She wants this and so do I. Can it survive being born now?" Zero asks.
"I don't know. I never had or see one of these being done before. I just know if we leave the child in there neither will survive. This way at least her body can heal. I will do my best for the child as well, I just can't be sure of the outcome. We all have to be prepared for the worse, and to explain it to Yuki when she gets up." Hanabusa answers.
"If we do anything to hurt his child, she will never forgive us, its why she left. Why she went away from us all." Zero replies.
"That may be true, but we can't just sit here and watch her die. She will get over what she feels about us in time, at least she will be here to do so." Kaname spats.
"That is exactly why she didn't want you here. She knew you wouldn't have any regard for our child." Zero hisses back.
"Look, I don't want the child dead either, what do you want me to do? Do you think this is easy for me? TO watch her carry your child and almost die from it? To shut me out of everything? I am trying my best here to deal with what I can. If they both die it's not going to make this easier. At least maybe we can get her to live, maybe the child as well. It's just a chance we have to take. We have to do something, if we don't they are both gone, and we are here for nothing." Kaname responds.
Zero just gives him a dirty look, knowing what he is saying is true, even though he hates to admit it. He knew this was hard on Kaname, but it wasn't any easier on him. If he was honest, this was just a big mess, and someone should have told them this would happen. Then no one knew it was going on, because, Yuki never even said who she was. That little secret was becoming a big problem. Not only for the lying she did to him, but everything afterward.
Zero just hopes that things can get better. He just knows that if something happens to the child Yuki will never be the same. It wasn't like they could ever try again, it would only have the same result. That was even if she wanted him after all this, would her feelings for him, still be there? Or would she now just hate him for everything that has taken place.
For him leaving her when she needed him most? For him walking away when things got hard? For him letting Hanabusa kill their child?
Zero just sits downstairs, drinking the blood to replenish himself, feeling down and hurt. He didn't want any of this to happen. IT was even worse then him being so poor he had to almost sell himself. He just thinks of everything he has already lost, he didn't need to lose more.
