Ok, since none of you could pick a name, I did. Thank Blossom Utonium and other anonymous voters for helping with this as well. Off that slightly bad topic, on with the story!
I smirked when I saw Kyo start blushing profusely and dash away. I shook my head and slowly walked out of the room. I couldn't help but start to worry about my little neko as I made my way up to my room. What could possibly be wrong? I found myself pacing all around my room as I tried to figure it out. I fell back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. I didn't move when I heard a knock at my door. Aya popped his head in the door when I didn't answer.
"Are you ok?" I shook my head, otherwise keeping still. He sighed and stepped in, closing the door behind him.
"What's wrong?" I could feel the bed dip as my brother sat down.
"Kyo's been getting sick and he only told me this morning. Hatori's going to tell us what's wrong when he knows for sure." The bed shifted again and I felt Ayame put a hand on my shoulder, completely serious for once.
"I'm sure he's fine. You should know he probably didn't want to worry you." I sighed and nodded, slowly sitting up.
"I suppose, but still…" Aya smiled and stood up.
"Why don't we go outside and see how Kyo's doing then, hmm?" I thought about it for a moment before sliding out of bed.
"Sure, why not."
XxX
I laughed as I stopped again to let Suo catch up with me before taking off before he could actually catch me. I smiled when I heard him laugh behind me. I stopped again a few feet away, about to do the same thing again when-
"Raa!" I flailed my arms for a moment before I inevitably fell back. I blew the bangs out of my face and laughed at the sight of Leo attached to my left leg. The breath got knocked out of me as Suo took a flying leap at my chest, knocking me back completely.
"Gotcha!" I chuckled.
"Ya got lucky brat."
"Kyo." I looked up at the sound of my name, surprised to see Hatori standing in the back door. I slowly got up, much to the disappointment of Leo and Suo. Hatori turned to go in the house and motioned for me to follow. I quickly caught up, grabbing onto his sleeve.
"What about-"
"Shigure's going to go watch them with them. I need to talk to you." I swallowed and silently nodded, following Hatori without another word. He led me upstairs where we bumped into Yuki and Ayame as they were coming out of Yuki's room.
"Kyo-kun! We were just about to go see you!"
"You're going to have to wait. I need to talk to him." Aya crossed his arms.
"About what? Surely it-"
"I need to tell him now." Yuki went around his brother and took Kyo's hand, squeezing it. Aya sobered up a bit at Hatori's announcement, remembering Yuki's worry earlier.
"I hope you feel better Kyo-kun." Hatori continued to my room and walked in, waiting until we'd passed the door before closing it behind us.
"Hatori-san? What was that just now? Is there something seriously wrong?"
XxX
Kyo was keeping uncharacteristically quiet. I sent him a worried glance and squeezed his hand again, hoping to make him feel better.
"It's nothing horrible, but you may want to sit down."
"Just tell us damn it!" Hatori sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Please don't get riled up, it's not helping any."
"Then just-!"
"Kyo, let him talk." Kyo glared at me but I ignored it as Hatori sighed again.
"Fine. Akito's serum? It worked. I told you two-"
"Wait, how do the two connect? You can't mean-" I felt the bottom drop out of my stomach as I connected all the dots.
"The hell? You said that would go through my system! What the fuck does this have to do with-!"
"It has to do with it because it was obviously in your body long enough to get you pregnant!" I paled at having my suspicions confirmed. I stood there in a type of shock, not snapping out of it until I heard Hatori speak again in a much calmer tone of voice.
"Kyo?" My head snapped around to face him, cursing softly when I saw how pale he'd gotten. I stepped in front of him and put my hands on either side of his face.
"Kyo? Kyo!" His gaze slowly focused on mine, a small amount of color coming back but not nearly enough. I heard the door open and close but made no move to acknowledge it.
"Everything's going to be fine. I promise. Kyo?"
XxX
I slowly pressed a shaking hand to my stomach. It felt so flat; it didn't seem possible that there was anything there. How? I shook my head. I knew that but…
"Kyo, please say something."I looked at Yuki, still confused.
"I-its'…" Yuki nodded his head, his thumbs starting to run over the skin in front of my ears.
"I know."
"How do you…" Yuki gave me an incredulous look.
"I should be asking you that. Hen ko."* Yuki pulled me close and I wrapped my arms around him, gripping the back of his shirt.
"Sorry for before, you were right." I heard and felt him start chuckling.
"That hurt, didn't it?" I scowled, pushing back to see his face.
"You're fine neko. I understand." I rolled my eyes, putting my head back down on his shoulder.
"Nice to know one of us does 'cause I'm completely fucking lost right now." I smiled when I heard him start laughing.
"We'll figure it out eventually." I rolled my eyes and was about to respond when a knock on the door interrupted me.
"Is everything alright now?" Yuki let go of me to go open the door for Hatori as I leaned up against the right hand wall. Hatori looked around when he came in before his eyes settled on me.
"You're color came back. Good." I watched as Yuki sat down on the edge of the bed while Hatori stayed standing.
"There are things you should be aware of if you're carrying to t-"
"Why the hell wouldn't I be? Who in their right mind would kill a little damn-!"
"Kyo, please let him finish." I turned my head to glare at Yuki. Why the hell isn't he getting pissed too?
"Thank you. Back to what I was saying; if you carry to full term and nothing bad happens, you should experience mood swings and strange food cravings. It's all completely normal, along with getting sick in the morning, though that will go away, it won't be for a while yet." My head was still stuck on 'and nothing bad happens'. Was that what Yuki was thinking?…I hope so…
"How soon can we expect the mood swings to start?" I groaned, letting my head fall back against the wall.
"Just great. I'm gunna act like a damn girl now?" I could hear Hatori start laughing and resisted the urge to hit him.
"Very soon and it's not that bad." I brought my head up, not believing him.
"What about school? A baggy uniform only covers so much." I paled slightly as I realized Yuki was right.
"We'll cross that bridge when we get there, you don't have that much time left in school anyway. On this topic, I need your complete attention Kyo." I looked over at Hatori, confused as to why he sounded so serious.
"Yeah?"
"I need you to promise you won't purposely stress yourself. It's one of the worst things you can do to your health right now. Understood?" I nodded, wondering just what that entailed.
"I expect you to help him Yuki."
I nodded my head, my brain still trying to figure out how we were going to deal with school. I didn't even want to think about what would happen if everyone found out, the rumors and names from first year being enough of an example.
"Thank you Hatori." He nodded and slowly got up.
"If you two have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask." We stayed silent as Hatori left, leaving the door open this time.
"Kyo, are you alright?" I watched him nod but other than that he didn't answer me. I got up and walked in front of him, trying to make sure I had his full attention.
"Kyo?" His eyes snapped to mine, his posture suddenly stiff and angry.
"I'm fine damn it." He shoved past me and went to walk out the door. Mood swings are here, Hatori was right. I grabbed his arm and spun him around to face me.
"I have perfect right to ask that question Kyo. You're not acting normal." He tried to snatch his arm out of my grasp but I tightened my hold, determined to figure out why he was acting like this.
"So now you get mad? Why the fuck didn't you before? Just let go damn it!" I looked at him, confused, but my hold didn't loosen. When… My eyes widened when I figured out what Kyo was talking about and why he was so angry. He finally managed to pull away with one hard yank but it put him off balance for a moment. I grabbed his wrist and pushed his back against the wall he'd been leaning on, snagging his other wrist and pinned them both above his head to make sure he couldn't pull away.
"Kyo-"
"Leo, get back here!" I immediately pulled back from Kyo when I heard someone running up the stairs.
Good? Bad? Comments help me know what to put in the next chapter.
