The Latest Adventure: But This Time

Chapter 4

Sora gaped at her, and she began to get worried. After several minutes of sitting in silence, and quite a bit of nervous twitching from Kairi, a single tear slid down her face and into her linked hands, which were still twisting nervously. She went to stand up, but was pulled back down quickly by a strong pull and, shortly after, a pair of warm lips. She smiled into his mouth and leaned her forehead against his, looking right into his eyes. "So you're not mad?"

"Mad? Why would I be mad? I'm gonna be a dad!" He flashed his signature grin, and kissed her lightly. "Besides, it would be half my fault anyway, if you were, so I'd have no right to be mad anyway."

"Just half?" She teased him lightly.

Another 1000 watt grin. "Okay, maybe 75 percent."

She snorted and he sighed like a martyr. "Okay, 85 percent. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!"

She giggled and pushed off of the bed. Sora stood with her and placed one hand on her stomach, just above her belly button. They stood like that for a little while, then set off down the corridor to the audience chamber.

A little over three hours later, after their debriefing from the king, Kairi was asleep in an oversized chair, her head resting against her fist. Sora laughed and picked her up gently and easily. He bid King Mickey goodnight and carried Kairi back to the room. He tucked her into one side of the bed, kissed her forehead, and slipped quietly out of the room.

He walked a little ways down to Riku's room, where light was still pouring out from under the enormous door. He knocked tentatively, then pushed the door open without an answer from his best friend.

Riku was sitting on his bed, reading the large packet that the King had showed them. Inside were diagrams of the different worlds, both explored (mostly by Sora) and unexplored. Sora had hated drawing those maps, but he had to admit that they did look awfully nice all grouped together like that.

Also in the packet were descriptions of the Heartless that do or may explore the worlds and the possible places that they may find allies.

"Can I help you, Oh Keyblade Master?" Riku asked sarcastically.

Sora flopped down on the bed beside Riku and pushed him over a bit. "Kairi's asleep already and I'm not tired. And that's Mr. Keyblade Master to you, Oh Sarcastic One."

"So you automatically assumed that I would entertain you? Would you like me to call a dancing monkey?"

Sora's eyes lit up. "You can do that?!"

Riku sighed at the intelligence (or lack thereof) of his best friend. "Sora, I was kidding."

His face fell. Riku hated it when Sora looked depressed. It was so...un-Sora like. "But more than likely, in this castle, you would get an oversized monkey in some form of half clothing."

The image of an oversized tamarin in Donald's blue outfit made Sora smile. Riku sighed. Can't he stay depressed for even five minutes? He snorted. Of course not! Then he wouldn't be Sora! Sometimes, Riku's inner voice could be a real pain in the ass.

"Well, it's really late. You should get some sleep. You'll be needing it soon enough." Riku nearly pushed his hyper best friend out of his room.

"But I'm not tired Riku! I got some really good news from Kairi today!"

Riku's eyes popped open wide. It's not possible! They've only been married a couple of weeks! "She's pregnant, isn't she?"

"No, she's-wait. That's right. How'd you guess?"

Riku started counting off on his fingers. "Let's see. 1.) Excessive sleeping. 2.) Weird eating habits. That pickle and yogurt sandwich nearly made me hurl yesterday, by the way. 3.) Moodiness. She's happy one second, crying the next. Sora, she cried over the Teletubbies yesterday! The Teletubbies, Sora! These are all sure signs of pregnancy. Besides, what else could she tell you that would make you so amazingly happy?"

Sora looked more confused than anything. "Okay, whatever you say. What are Teletubbies?"

Riku hooked a hand around his friends shoulders and dragged him back into the bright room for what was sure to be a very interesting conversation.

Kairi woke up the next morning warm in a bed with a warm body pressed against her like she always did. She laced her fingers through the hand resting on her hip. Sora.

She startled and looked around, forgetting for an instant where she was. A broom walked quietly into the room and she remember. Disney Castle. She groaned and placed a hand on her forehead. I can't believe I fell asleep in the middle of the debriefing! King Mickey must be mad! She shook her head, disagreeing with herself. King Mickey never got mad at anybody. Not even the Heartless. She didn't think he had a single mean bone in his body.

She tried to recall what she did remember of the debriefing when Queen Minnie walked gracefully into the room. She stood at the foot of the bed and smiled kindly. Here was another one of Kairi's friends that never seemed to be mad. She and King Mickey were indeed a perfect match.

"Good morning, Your Majesty."

"Good morning, dear. Did you sleep well?"

"Very well. Thank you for providing such a large bed."

"Well we couldn't have either of you falling off the bed while you were sleeping, now could we?" She smiled and Kairi blushed almost as crimson as her hair. "Don't worry about it. There's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Thanks, Your Majesty."

"Minnie, dear. We girls gotta stick together with all these males around, huh? Some of us don't have all that testosterone in us. If I understand correctly, you're feeling especially feminine lately, aren't you?" Minnie smiled knowingly. Kairi flushed.

"Forgive me, Your Majesty, but how did you know? I'm only about four weeks pregnant."

"A girl has her ways. Did you honestly think that I'm as dense as your husband? Don't get me wrong. I love Sora like my own son. I just wonder where his head goes sometimes."

"Believe me, you're not the only one. Riku and I have a bet going as to when he finds out that Selphie is pregnant too. My bet is on about four or five months from now. Riku bet after the baby was born. I'm hoping he's not that blind." They both laughed, and Sora stirred.

"Kairi, what's wrong? It's only- Oh." Sora flushed when he saw the queen. "Good morning, Your Majesty."

"Why will noone call me Minnie?" She smiled again, and Sora's blush receded.

"It's because we all respect all you do, Your Majesty."

"Sora, if you respect me, you will call me Minnie, understand? You've done quite enough to earn that privilege. You too, Kairi."

"Yes, Minnie." The couple chirped pleasantly.

"Good. Breakfast will be ready in ten minutes. Would you prefer it in the audience chamber or here?" The couple looked at each other.

"The audience chamber, please." They answered in unison.

"All right. Get dressed. See you there."

"Thank you, Minnie."

The queen giggled and left, closing the large door behind her with a dull Thud!

Kairi and Sora threw on new clothes that the king had provided (armored of course) and went to the audience chamber for breakfast.

Okay, I know that there's quite a bit of fluff here, but it was mostly character development. Sorry it took so long to update! Been a bit busy with two different projects going on at once. Remember that there are cuppy-cakes in it for anyone that reviews!

Much Love,

Sora's Kairi
