AN: Thank you for reviewing everyone!

Yin sat at the piano and pressed her delicate fingers down on one of the keys and then brought up both her hands. Instead of composing her own music, she began to play one of Beethoven's sonatas. She stopped and rose from the piano. Hei examined her from the couch, having been grading papers. "Another bathroom break?" He asked, and Yin simply nodded. She had been making much more visits to the wash closet now that her stomach was getting bigger. He looked back down to his papers.

The couple had been home for a few days now and were receiving many phone calls from Kiko to update them on the situation with the idol. The music label went as far as sending them gift baskets containing fruits, chocolates, teas and one that even had a card with the idol's autograph. Yin returned, sitting down at the piano again. She had been having trouble composing new pieces ever since becoming pregnant. She completed a few simple exercises, then she started to play one of her older compositions.

After a week full of friends and fun, Suou had returned home. She gushed to her brother all about it--inviting Hei, the ghost boy and Tanya sneaking into Nika's room. Shion nodded from time to time, but found himself indifferent to his sister's situation. "That's really nice Suou--I have a test to study for, so can you finish this some other time?" He asked formally. Suou huffed and puffed her cheeks out. She slammed his door on the way out.

She flopped onto the couch and started to flip through the television channels. News...news…drama...drama…Hina press conference. Ah, a romantic movie! Suou watched the screen intently, as the actors clung to each other in a dark cave. The girl blushed and confessed her feelings which made the boy, in return, kiss her. Suou's eyes widened and she began to blush too. 'That could have happened to me…' She pulled a pillow to her chest. "Hei sensei~!" She said in a lovey-dovey way and kicked her feet into the air.

Shion was passing by and caught a glimpse of his sister's antics. "What the hell are you doing?" He asked, causing Suou to stop immediately.

Suou glared at her brother, who headed to the kitchen. She brought the pillow to her mouth. "It could have been what it was destined to be if it weren't for that slut…" She muttered, remembering the woman who made advances on Hei.

Suou skipped down the hall with her back swinging in her hand. She met up with her friends, and they chatted until it was time for class. Suou went in first and all was normal, except for the desk next to her was newly occupied…by the blonde boy. "Ghost!" She shrieked and her friends quickly peered into the classroom. By now, the boy was looking at her along with the entire class. Suou blushed out of embarrassment and apologized as she trotted to her seat.

As the bell rang and the students began to take their seats, Hei entered the classroom. "I will be your homeroom teacher today." He told the class, taking a piece of chalk and then writing the schedule on the board. He looked at the announcements that were given, adjusting his glasses. "Oh." He turned and pointed to the blonde boy. "Come up and introduce yourself. This is our new transfer student."

The boy walked up to the board and faced the class. "I am July Simon. It is nice to meet you." He said a bit dully and waved at the class stiffly. He gave a quick bow and returned to his seat. Suou stared at him wide-eyed the entire time.

The loudspeaker let out a long ding and the morning announcements began. The principal came in to introduce the new vice-principal. "Good morning, children. I am Misaki Kirihara. I can't wait to meet all of you." Said a strong woman's voice. A few of the boys started to whisper about it as the morning announcements continued. Suou kept glancing at July the whole time--she couldn't believe he was actually real.

But Suou had to pay attention to her classes...she couldn't be distracted by the ghost boy. The whole class unwound when it was time for lunch. Suou glanced over and saw Nika approach July. "Hey, do you wanna eat lunch with the rest of us?" He asked jovially.

July nodded. "I have to get my lunch." He said as he stood up and left. Nika talked with the others about how the bread would probably be sold out or only have stale ones left. They hoped that he would get something decent so they wouldn't feel bad about having their bento boxed lunches. July came back with a bento box like the others, and they were surprised.

Nika helped Sasha push some of the desks together. Again, Suou was the odd one out and had to sit next to July. The girls eagerly asked where he came from. "England." He said unpretentiously and began to eat his lunch. Tanya asked him to say something in English. July had to pause for a moment. "Nice to meet you all." Tanya and Irina blushed, relishing his adorable accent.

Suou just ate quietly as her friends fawned over July. She wanted to thank him for saving her, but her friends were still drilling him. They asked about his hobbies, "Reading and collecting clippings." They asked what his favorite subject was, "History." They asked for his favorite color, "Red." July, meanwhile, didn't sound amused...but he didn't sound angry either.

Nika had to leave when one of the senior track members showed up. Sasha and Tanya packed up and went to the bathroom. Irina went back to her desk and opened a book. July and Suou were the last to pack up their lunches. Suou kept taking brief peeks at July. "Um…July?" She said slightly, grabbing his attention. "Thank you for saving me in that cave. It was really nice of you to go with me..." She said with a little smile.

"You're welcome." July replied and then pushed his desk back into place. He watched Suou for a moment before taking his seat. Suou sighed lightheartedly and moved her desk too. She took out her notebook and opened to a page in the back. She smiled and blushed as she ogled the pages of the edited pictures of her and Hei.

Hei didn't pass back the tests until the end of the class. He figured that it might help ease the tension if he taught them first. Suou eagerly looked at her paper and found that she had just barely passed. She felt nervous at first, but then quickly cheered up since this meant more time with Hei. She placed her hand under her chin and daydreamed about their tutoring sessions until the final bell rang. The students all packed up quickly and left for the day. Suou lingered at the door for a moment, hoping Hei would call her back. She sighed went he didn't...and ran to catch up with her friends--after all, there'd always be a tomorrow!

Hei organized his bag and slid his coat on. He had to go meet the new vice-principal in the teachers' office. He was walking down the hall and saw the new student, July, enter the office and found it peculiar. Once in the office, he saw a woman with long brown hair and a blue suit shaking the hands of the other teachers. She turned and Hei saw that she had glasses. Her eyes darted to something else and she looked surprised.

"July?" She asked a little confused but called him over. She put her arm around his shoulders and smiled a little. "This is my son, July. Please take good care of him." She patted July's shoulder a bit and then saw Hei. "Ah--my name is Misaki Kirihara. Nice to meet you." She said and held out her hand. Hei shook it and introduced himself in return.

Principal Ricardo, or more fondly known as Mao, shook July's hand and thanked his mother for joining the staff. Hei saw the strange gym teacher eye July and get punched by the other gym teacher. Hei moved closer to the principal. "Excuse me." He said to get Mao's attention. "I have a doctor's appointment…is it alright if I leave now?" He asked and Mao looked him over and then seemed to be stuck by an idea.

"Hmm....ah. I see. Please go ahead. Don't keep them waiting." Mao said suggestively. Hei thanked him and left the school right away. He jogged through the halls and past the gate. He saw a fashionable European man outside smoking. The man smirked at him and threw his cigarette on the ground and stepped on it. Hei looked over his shoulder and saw the man enter the gates of the building.

Hei had to run even faster so that he could catch the first train. He was running to his front door and caught Kiko bringing Yin out to the car. He stopped them and took a few deep breaths. He wasn't very late this time around. Kiko glared at him for being tardy. Hei ignored her glare to help Yin into Kiko's car. The silver haired lady was happy that Hei would be there for the entire visit this time.

Kiko lent her car to the couple for their prenatal visits since they didn't own a car yet. Kiko jabbered about this new drama CD to Yin while Hei drove. Kiko only accompanied them because there was a mall nearby where she could promote Yin, but she often went right to the anime shops.

Hei had to make a sudden stop because it was getting late. He pulled over and got out. He helped Yin out of the car as Kiko said good bye and got into the driver's seat and adjusted the seat and mirrors. Hei took Yin's hand and wrapped his arm around her back. "Ready?" His wife nodded and they ran as Hei held onto Yin securely.

Kiko was waiting outside the mall with an ice cream cone. Hei was holding Yin's hand as they walked over. Yin was smiling beautifully, holding a little paper bag full of pamphlets from the doctor. Kiko waved them down and skipped toward them a little. "So, so! A cute little niece or a nephew?" She looked at the couple excitedly as she led them to the car. She was excited because they were the first of her friends to have a baby.

"We decided on finding out the baby's gender the old way…" Yin said and felt her feet getting sore from running before.

Kiko frowned and crossed her arms. "Well, how am I supposed to throw you a baby shower if I don't know?" She clearly sounded agitated. She took a bite of her ice cream and got brain freeze.

"You can get clothes other than blue and pink…or toys and bibs." Hei said thoughtfully. He remembered his sister being dressed in his old red baby clothes.

Kiko coughed. "Yeah…" She said slyly. "Have you guys even started on the nursery yet?" She looked accusingly at Hei.

"I was thinking of asking Amber to decorate…" Yin said as Hei opened his mouth to answer. He looked a little shocked. Kiko blinked a little and also looked at Yin. She frowned a little at their silence. "Is something wrong?"

"No, nothing!" Hei and Kiko said in unison. This made Yin giggle. The two were surprised that she had suggested Amber since they had lost touch with her. She had moved after getting a job at a big interior design firm.

Kiko drove them back home and Yin invited her over for dinner. Kiko waved it off saying that she had too many phone calls to make and took a rain check instead. The couple waved at Kiko as she sped off. Hei helped Yin into the house and undid his tie. Today had been very long, but it was nice to hear the baby's heart beat and that Yin was starting to feel kicking. Hei watched as she rushed straight to the bathroom and smiled a little.
