Chapter 2: News
It had been a month since they found out about Liz's pregnancy, they had gone to the doctors office and gotten checked to make sure she was healthy and she had gotten some prenatal vitamins. They hadn't told anyone about the pregnancy yet, they wanted to make sure they talked things through. After everything they decided that even if they weren't really ready to be parents but together they would get ready. Liz could not stand the idea of not taking care of a child that was theirs, she lived on the streets because her mom abandoned her and she promised herself that she would never do anything like that is she became a mother. Kid was raised all alone in a big house, his father always having to run the school he never blamed him but he did grow up alone and he wanted to avoid that for his child. So they decided together that when the time came they would be ready to become parents.
Which lead to today,the day they were going to tell their families about the pregnancy. Together they only had two real family members, Patti and Lord Death. So right now Liz and Kid were hand in hand as Patti skipped by them as they made their way to the Death Room.
"So Kid what did you want to talk to me about?" Death asked Kid as soon as they arrived.
"Well that..." Kid tightened his grip on Liz's hand. "Well we wanted to tell something to you and Patti at the same time."
"What is it Kiddo?"
"Well..." Kid started to blush nervous.
"I'm pregnant." Liz finally blurted out. "I have been for about a month now."
Then there was an uneasy silence as Death and Patti stared at the couple. Liz focused on Lord Death, his dark eyes staring back at her, Liz was trying to figure out what he was thinking he was so hard to read with that mask. Normally Liz wasn't afraid of Lord Death he was nice and possibly the goofiest person she had ever met but right now she was terrified on how he was going to react.
The silence was finally broken when Patti asked. "So is it Kid's?"
"OF COURSE IT IS?" Liz screamed at her giggling sister. "WHOSE ELSE WOULD IT BE?"
As Patti giggled at her sisters outburst Lord Death cleared his throat to get their attention.
The next thing the couple know they were grabbed by Grim Reaper. "I'm so happy." Lord Death said in his usual playful tone as he both of them. "I wasn't sure my Kiddo was ever going to find a girlfriend but now you tell me he's going to be a father. It the greatest news I've ever heard!"
"Way to beat expectations, Kid!" Patti shouted.
"So you guys aren't upset or anything?" Liz asked.
"No, of course not." Lord Death told them. "This might not be the most ideal circumstances but both of you love each other and I'm sure you'll share that love with your baby."
"Yeah," Patti added. "you guys are going to be a great papa and mama."
"Yes, and we will be there to provide you with anything that you need." Death reassured them.
"Well thanks." Liz said.
"I suppose now we should tell our friends." Kid commented.
"I don't think that will be a problem." Lord Death pointed towards the exit.
They looked back to see Patti running through the door off to tell everyone about the pregnancy. In twenty minutes all their friends knew about the pregnancy and in thirty minutes everyone in Death City knew about it.
Their friends decided to celebrate with a party, at Tsubaki and Black Stars apartment. Tsubaki fixed a wonderful dinner for them. They were happy to find that all their friends supported them. Maka gave Liz a book on what to expect when expecting.
"Why do you have this?" Liz asked the scythe meister.
"I bought it as a gift for you." Maka responded.
"Well thanks but I mean this book looks old and used."
"I bought it from a used book store okay."
Liz finding a book mark inside it. "Why is there a bookmark that says property of Maka Albarn in it?"
Soul started to stare at Maka and she started to blush. "That's mine." Maka took back the bookmark.
"Why were you reading a baby book?" Soul asked Maka.
"No, reason I just wanted to read it."
Meanwhile Black Star was talking to Kid. "Congratulations Kid."
"Thank You."
"Yes, you managed to to beat me and become a father first."
"Okay?"
"But I won't hold a grudge, I promise I will be the best uncle your kid could ever have."
"Well that's good to hear."
"But I'm going to be an even better Godfather."
"Godfather?"
"Yes, who else could you have as godfather?"
"Actually I was leaning towards Soul for that position."
Hearing this Soul honored said cooly. "Cool, man I'd be happy to be your kids godfather."
Black Star grabbed Soul and starts shaking him. "Soul! You can't be godfather! The man that will surpass god should be godfather! It has god in the name!"
"That's why I'd rather have Soul as godfather." Kid whispered to Liz as Patti clapped happily.
"MAKA CHOP!" Maka screamed as she slammed a book into Black Stars skull.
Liz pondered who she should appoint as godmother. Patti was an obvious choice as her sister but she was a bit immature,Tsubaki would be good being able to cook and she was caring but then Liz would have to risk her child's safety with Black Star around and Maka would be good she was good with kids and smart but Liz worried if her kid would end up getting chopped.
Later that night the couple went off to bed. As they were drifting off to sleep Kid look deeply into Liz's eyes.
"Is something wrong Kid?" She asked.
"Marry me, Liz."
"What?"
"Marry Me." Kid told her again smiling.
"Are you kidding me?"
"No."
"You're just saying it to do the whole honorable thing."
"No,it makes sense we love each other and we want to be with each other for the rest of our lives. It makes more sense to be married than not be married. It's a bit spur of the moment so I don't have a ring for you but know that I really mean it, I want to marry you."
"Okay, yes, I'll marry you."
With school ending and everything they decided to have a small wedding a week later, they only invited their friends and family, Liz really wanted to have her wedding before she started showing. They held the wedding in the gardens behind Death Gallows. All their friends and family were there, also Marie who brought Stein which was really weird since no one invited either one of them.
So at the alter Liz' brides maids waited, Patti being her maid of honor, then Tsubaki, Maka, Kim and Jackie all who were wearing peach colored dresses. Kid wore a simple and symmetrical black suit, next him was Black Star (who he made best man just to shut him up about the godfather job), Soul,Ox, Harvar and Kilik all who were wearing suits.
The demon pots also helped, Fire served as the ring bearer and Thunder was the flower girl. As the Bridal March began Liz began to walk down the aisle, Lord Death walked her down the aisle.
The ceremony began Patti whispered. "Can you believe that she's wearing white?"
"Ah Patti you're whispering to me?" Liz told her sister.
"Sorry." Patti turned to Tsubaki. "Can you believe that she's wearing white?"
Tsubaki just smiled trying not to ruin the moment.
As the ceremony got through with only one real hiccup when Black Star wanted to say something but Maka shut him up by trowing a dictionary into his face. The two exchanged vows.
Kid started. "Liz since I've met you my life has taken a change for a better. Since I met you I've become a better person and it's all thanks to you. You make me want to be a better person. But that doesn't matter even, thought I want to be a better man for you, you accept me for who I am and you love me for who I am. But that's still not going to stop me from trying to be a better man, to be the kind of man you deserve."
Liz smiled at Kid. "Kid I love you it didn't start out that way. I thought you were just a spoiled brat. But as time passed I started to see more of you, that you were one of the most caring people I've ever meet. You weren't a spoiled brat, you shared your home with me and my sister,you shared your life and everything you had. You shared the good time and the bad times with me. I've never been to sure if I deserved to be with you. But if there is one thing I am sure of is that I know there is no one that can love you as much as I love you."
Tsubaki started to cry at this point, they exchanged rings and kissed each other and they were married.
The rest of the day was pretty much what everyone suspected, Maka and Soul danced at the receptions and Black Star and Patti ate way too much of the food.
