Hey everyone. I know this story pretty much sucks but I started this when I was a freshman in high school and had not read many stories yet. Now about 3-4 years later and after reading stories every day, I am much better so I am continuing this story. Granted I haven't read the actual manga in a year or so, I will do my best to make them true to character. Please bear with me and enjoy the continuation.

Warning: Kaname's mother is alive and lives in Japan with her father. I know that's not what really happened in the story, but I like it better this way. Also, Sousuke might be a little OCC, sorry.

Disclaimer: I do not own Full Metal Panic.

Kaname had just told her parents the news of her pregnancy. She waited and prepared for the yelling and screaming she thought would come with this confession, but she was not prepared for the silence that followed it. Her parents just stared at the two with blank faces. Sousuke thought that maybe they had been shot in the backs, but dismissed that idea when her parents started to regain themselves.

"Kaname. How did this happen?" asked her father.

"Honey. I think we know how this happened." Said her mother. Kaname gave a small smile after the remark, but then remembered her situation and got serious again.

"I admit I was very reckless and immature, but now I am ready to face the consequences of my decision, and carry on with my life. Sousuke has already told me that he is behind me every step of the way. We are going to keep the baby and raise it in my apartment. Sousuke has a stable job and will protect me and the baby," said Kaname.

Her parents thought it over for a minute while Kaname was on the edge of her seat in anticipation. Finally her parents said something.

"Sweetie. We accept your decision and will help anyway we can," said Kaname's mother. Kaname was so happy, but her mother continued," but we will not help you financially. You have to work to support your child. You made a choice and are dealing with it like adults so you are going to work like adults. Understood?"

Kaname was not very happy about the job part, but she was ecstatic about her parents accepting their first grandchild.

"So, Sousuke, what kind of job do you have?" asked Kaname's mother. Sousuke suddenly got very nervous. He broke out in sweats. He knew that if he told the truth, Kaname would probably skin him alive. Kaname gave him a look saying 'tell the truth and you're dead', so he answered, "Law enforcement. I am a cadet in training to be a police officer."

"At such a young age? They sure start early," said Kaname's father.

"Well, Sousuke, we trust you with our daughter and future grandchild. You seem like a respectable man who is capable of great love," said Kaname's mother. Both Sousuke and Kaname sighed in relief and prepared to leave. Just when they were at the door, Kaname's mother came behind them with a meal and a request.

"Please, just promise that you will give us updates every week with how things are going with the pregnancy and call us when she goes into labor. We want to be there for our baby girl," Kaname's mother said to Sousuke. Sousuke just nodded and put Kaname's coat on her. They waved their goodbyes and finally relaxed.

"Well that's one hurdle over and done with. What's next?" asked Sousuke.

Kaname just looked down with a solemn look and said," I'm not sure. We'll just play it by ear, but for now, let's make me a doctor's appointment and look in the wanted ads to find me a job." Kaname smiled at Sousuke, but Sousuke could not smile back. He was starting to become very nervous at the prospect of being a father, even though the baby was about 6 months away from being born. Would he make a good father?

(1 month later)

Kaname's stomach was now becoming a little noticeable. Some of her clothes did not fit her anymore, so she dragged Sousuke shopping. Needless to say, it did not go very well. Most of the maternity clothes were all girly and frilly, and Kaname despised each and every one of them. So, they looked in the women's section, and all went fine, but then Sousuke opened his big mouth and got in trouble with Kaname.

"What do you mean I look fat? How can you say that?" yelled Kaname. Her hormones had kicked in and Sousuke was now in man hell. He grew even more afraid of Kaname and tried to stay out of the line of fire, so he made an excuse the next time she wanted to go shopping.

Melissa tried to offer him advice, Kurz tried to show him pictures of naked pregnant women, and Kyoko tried to help calm Kaname down at school. All in all, he had great help, but needed more. That is when he decided to go see Kalinin not only to get advice, but to tell him of the pregnancy.

Sousuke walked into his office terrified of how this would turn out. (A.N. I am not very formal, but I will try my best with his speech)

"What is it Mr. Sagara?" asked Kalinin.

"Sir, I have urgent news to report," said Sousuke.

"Yes, go on," urged Kalinin. Sousuke hesitated for a second before answering.

"Sir…Kaname Chidori is… pregnant. I am the father, sir," Sousuke breathed out. Kalinin was silent for a minute. He was in shock at this. Sousuke was the last person he thought would knock a girl up. He expected that from Kurz, although he had received reports and seen a change in Sousuke when it came to Ms. Chidori.

"Well, do you plan on marrying Ms. Chidori?" asked Kalinin. Sousuke jumped back in surprise. This was the last thing that he expected to come out of his superior officer's mouth.

"Sir, I haven't really thought about that," said Sousuke scratching his neck. Kalinin looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Well, if you fully intend to take responsibility for this child, then you should marry Ms. Chidori and make yourselves financially stable. Maybe you should also move into the same apartment," suggested Kalinin. Sousuke thought about this for a minute and then replied, "Sir, what if I don't make a good father. What if my child wants nothing to do with me?" Kalinin looked at him with sympathy. He could tell Sousuke was very nervous about being a father. He smiled at him.

"Sousuke. Everyone has nerves and cold feet when they're expecting a child. Even when she has the child, you will be scared shitless, but you learn as you go. Think of it as military training, but instead of an officer screaming at you, it's your baby. I know that you will tackle this and be a great father," said Kalinin.

"Thank you, sir. You have given me much to think about and it is greatly appreciated. I will report to you in about two weeks," said Sousuke as he walked toward the door.

"Ah, Mr. Sagara. You must promise me one thing," ordered Kalinin.

"What is that, sir?" asked Sousuke.

"I get to see the child when it is born and… I get to be Grandpa," he said with a smile on his face. Sousuke just smiled and said, "Of course…Father."

So I hoped you guys liked this chapter. I know Kalinin is not his real father. I just thought it would be cute if he had a father figure to call dad. So, I go to college in 3 days and will be extremely busy with my schedule, but if I get one review, I will update ASAP. See ya!
