Wow, I only realized/remembered that Kei had already proposed to Hikari (Ch.99) but because I hadn't read it in so long it was gone from my memory. So until I get those final few books in English I might be making lots of mistakes, but it would either be make mistakes and give you guys something to read or not make any mistakes but wait until after Christmas.

Chapter Five :: The Idea of Marriage and Sex

Hikari moved her foot nervously, her hands in her lap as she listened to her mother. Masako was currently telling her how although Hikari could probably do it, it was quite irresponsible to raise a baby without being married. Masako sighed as she started to prepare lunch for the family, "I'd love to accept Kei as a son-in-law," she smiled kindly, "He has always looked after you. Do you have to wait until after you've beaten him."

"Yes," Hikari nodded, "And as soon as that happens I'll propose to him," she grinned putting a hand on her stomach. "I still intend for my child to have the last name Takishima though," she looked down. "I mean I want to wait until I've beaten him to become a Takishima, but he's..." she stopped short as she imagined herself becoming more like Kei and started laughing.

Masako kept a straight face as she stared at her daughter, "Well at least there's that," she sank down in a chair, "Hikari, imagine how the father must be thinking during this not able to properly take care of his girlfriend by becoming a husband."

Hikari kept smiling, "If that's what you're worried about then Takishima more than understands."

Masako sighed, "I hope so, now go see if your brother needs any help because I don't want you messing up this kitchen."

Hikari looked down, "But I think I've gotten better at cooking, I mean Takishima likes my meals."

Masako sighed, it wasn't the taste that Kei must like...it had to be something else. Otherwise her, hopefully, future son-in-law was as clueless as her daughter.

Meanwhile

"So," Atsushi said amazed, "You already proposed to her?" He looked to his father who was staring at Kei himself wondering why this guy, who was so formal in everything, wouldn't have come down hear to talk about the proposal. Of course there had been that phone call.

Kei smiled at the memory, "It was near her birthday, her response wasn't surprising though."

"That she just said no?" he asked the younger teen, "How predictable is that."

The blonde laughed as he leaned back a little, relaxing in the chair, "No...more that she told me that she'd propose after she wins, well if she goes through the process of having a baby I'll consider that winning against me."

"And that's why she got knocked up?" Atsushi asked before the words could leave Jiro's mouth, "You think it's a joke to have a baby?"

Kei leaned forwards as he took a deep breath in, "No, not a joke, it's definitely not a joke, it just happened. I only said that after I learned that she was pregnant and since I can't do what she's doing, I'll consider her number one for a while."

Jiro nodded in understanding, "That's a good way to put it, but have you thought about the consequences that could bring."

"Yeah, like the challenges might come to an end," Atsushi said knowing how much beating Kei meant to his sister. The blonde smiled.

"I see that I can allow her to be number one in some things and she won't leave me or get bored, I don't think it'll end the contests, I think we both like them too much don't we...Hi-ka-ri?" he asked hearing a noise at the door

Hikari opened the door with a grin, "That's right Takishima...and when I do beat you we can get married."

Kei tilted his head to the side, delivering one of his stunning smiles, "That's right."

Meanwhile

Akira sighed as she and Tadashi sat in a small cafe, the boy eating the numerous different sweet things they had to offer whilst she stirred the tea she had ordered. All of a sudden Tadashi looked up at her, "It's crazy don't you think?" he asked her as Akira blinked, "I mean imagine it mini Kei's everywhere..." he shivered, "It's creepy."

Akira looked at him with narrowed eyes before smiling gently, "I doubt they'll look like him, I expect them to look more like my cute Hikari."

"Ugh...here comes the disgusting lady speech," Tadashi joked before Akira threw an ice cube from her iced tea at his head.

"Idiot, Hikari is cute and little girls often take after their mother," she smiled imagining an adorable baby girl that she could dress up, perhaps a girl who as she grew up would call her Aunt Akira, that would make the child so lovable, not that she wouldn't be already.

"How do you know it's going to be a girl though," Tadashi asked her, "I expect a boy."

"As if my darling Hikari could get saddled with a son as her first child, no it most definitely has to be a daughter." Akira protested as Tadashi rolled his eyes.

"But still," he said moving away from whether the couple in question should have a boy or a girl, not that they or anyone else ever got to choose their child's gender, "It's insane isn't it, having a child during your third year of high school. I mean I didn't even think that Kei and Hikari were having se-"

With that Akira had throw the teapot at her boyfriend, but had to admit the same thing had crossed through her mind. As much as she would, most likely half-jokingly, want to accuse Kei of being a pervert rapist that certainly wasn't the truth. When it came to Hikari he went so much slower than he'd probably like to, he was so careful and attentive to her needs, he truly loved her so whatever happened must have had her consent involved. As Tadashi picked himself up Akira sat down. "You're right though," she told him, "It does seem odd that Hikari would agree to doing that, she's so shy romantically about most things. I bet he forced her," she said not meaning that.

"Kei forcing Hikari into something that was completely against her will?" Tadashi tried to confirm Akira's accusation as a voice came from behind them.

"Really?" an excited girl leaned forwards, "Hikari's going to have that devil man's child," Sakura joked as Tadashi nodded. Akira smiled at her, admiring the outfit she had on that day.

"Yes," Jun nodded as he exited the cafe, "It was meant to be a surprise, but...they're going to have a baby in about nine months or so."

Sakura squealed, "That's so exciting for her!" she laughed before turning to Jun, "Jun-kun we should have a baby as well."

Jun turned bright red as Sakura said that, "Maybe...later," he replied awkwardly as Akira's eyes brightened.

"Sakura you should help me plan the party for next weekend, the surprise party for them. Apparently Hikari's first appointment is next weekend and she's taking that devil with her so that he can know exactly what's going on." Akira sighed, Kei was such a good boyfriend that she knew how good a father he would be, but it didn't mean he didn't have aspects to him that were the same as a devil.

Sakura nodded in agreement, "Sounds fun," she smiled at her. "Let's make it great for Hikari,"

Okay so next chapter is the doctor's appointment vs. arranging the party. Sorry that I didn't make this one longer, I'm kind of just getting back into writing my own work ((not that RPng isn't like one of my favorite things)) and i'm just getting back into this series. I will try to gradually get them longer though.
