Chapter 5

(At the doctor's office)

A while later, the doctor came in looking a little disheveled.

"Well, I just received the results and came back with some rather interesting news."

"Oh no! You hear that Eiri?! I'm gonna die, I'm gonna shrivel up and die and leave you here with nothing to look at, but my beautiful pictures! Nooo!" Shuichi wailed.

Eiri couldn't help but roll his eyes at Shuichi's idiocy and put his hand on his forehead to control his anger.

"You are not gon…"

Shuichi didn't even give Eiri a moments time to listen to what he had to say. He had read Eiri's expression as one of indifference and it hurt him.

"You don't care do you? You could care less if I died…how could you, I thought you loved me? You bastard, after all this time when I've done nothing but love you, you have the nerve t…"

"Will you shut up for one second?! Are you absoutely daft? When did you hear the words that you're going to die come out of his mouth? Listen and listen well, you are not going to shrivel up, you are not going to die, and you are not going to leave me hear with nothing to look at but your pictures! And don't you dare say that I don't love you."

Eiri turned towards the doctor with one final glare to Shuichi and asked the doctor to continue.

"What is it doctor? Nothing too serious, I hop…"

"Awww, you are so sweet Eiri! You do love me. Now I can die happy and know tha…"

The doctor was beyond agitated with all of the interruptions and chose to just come out with it ro else they would be here until night fall.

"You're pregnant."

All went to a dead silence.

Doctor Kano had looked down at his clipboard and when he looked up again, he was faced with two shocked faces and jaws dropping.

Eiri was the first to speak up, "Wh…wh…what?"

"Well, to put it bluntly, you are pregnant Mr. Shindou. I don't know what else to say, but to offer my congradulations!"

"What are you getting at pulling a joke like that?"

"I assure you it is no joke. Mr. Shindou is indeed pregnant."

"Oh." That was all Eiri could manage to say at the moment.

"Oh…god…Eiri, I'm pregnant…we're pregnant. We're gonna have a baby!"

Shuichi looked to Eiri with sheer happiness depicted on his face, eyes filled with tears of joy, and waiting for Eiri to respond. However, none came, and Shuichi came to the realization that Eiri didn't want this baby and much less him now that he was pregnant. Sobs filled the air.

"Eiri…please say something…anything. I…I didn't mean to…really."

Shuichi looked down at his lap in shame and sadness, "I'm so stupid. How could I get pregnant and think that you want anything to do with the baby. I understand if you don't want to see me or speak…to me anymore. I really am…sorry…I just…I don't know how this happened. Please don't be mad! I…If you really want me to, I…I'll get rid of it. I just…I'm happy, more than anyone can imagine, but you're not…so, I…God! Why did I have to go and get pregnant…I'm such a freak. I ruined everything."

Shuichi could no longer go on because his thoughts and his words had absolutely frightened him. He was scared beyond words that Eiri would leave him because he was now a freak with a baby. He had been so stupid to think that they could finally settle down with the news of a baby, but he should have known better.

His sobs filled the room and finally reached Eiri's ears. He had been so helplessly caught up in Shuichi's words that he had receded into his own mind to make sense of everything. Faint sobbing had reached his ears and pulled him from his thoughts and shock. However, what he felt wasn't surprise anymore; what he felt now was anger. As he analyzed each and every word that left Shuichi's mouth, he couldn't help but feel anger.

"Eiri…please…don't hate me. Do what you want…just please don't hat…"

"Shut up! Just shut up! What the hell goes on through your head? What you said just now is completely…I don't know…idiotic and…ugh! I love you! Don't you understand that? You mean the fucking world to me and you still have the nerve to assume that I hated you because you're pregnant?!...Oh my god…you're pregnant."

Eiri stopped his ranting and stood there; once again in shock. He dropped his head and his eyes flew towards his lover's face; one which he could not see. During Shuichi's rambling, he had climbed down from the exam table with trouble and repositioned himself on the chair next to the table. His head was downcast; his bangs falling over his face, casting a somber shadow to form on his face. No one would know if he was crying or not, but one thing gave him away. His shoulders were sagged and shaking. Sob after sob were escaping past his lips and penetrating the silence that once filled the room.

Eiri walked to Shuichi and kneeled down in front of him.

"Shu…look at me."

Shuichi stubbornly shook his head lightly causing his bangs to sway from side to side. Eiri sighed softly and brought his hand to rest on Shuichi's plump cheek. His hand slid down to his chin and he gently guided Shuichi's eyes to stare directly into his. However, Shuichi's did everything but stare. Shuichi made sure to avoid meeting Eiri's eyes at all costs, which earned him a firm response from Eiri.

"Shuichi…I said look at me." He demanded firmly.

Shuichi reluctantly lifted his gaze to Eiri's face, which was filled with concern and compassion; something he hoped would emerge on his love's face. This brought even more tears to his eyes.

"Shu…please stop those tears…there's no need for them. How could you ever have thought that I would be mad, or possibly hate you, or for god's sack not want this child? To be honest, I couldn't be happier. I mean…you're carrying my child…our child. It's amazing that we could have ever created something like this; we created this baby together. I love you Shuichi Shindou."

Eiri thought that his words would have successfully stopped Shuichi's tears, but one look at Shuichi's face proved him wrong.

"Shu, what's wrong? I thought you'd be happy?"

"I…I thought…" Shuichi could no longer contain himself and threw himself into Eiri's welcoming arms.

"Oh…I love you too Eiri…so much." He muffled into the crook of Eiri's neck.

Eiri hadn't expected an armful of Shuichi, which caused him to lose his balance and end up butt first on the floor and Shuichi in his lap. He himself was overwhelmed with countless emotions that he held on even tighter to the one man he loved in his arms.

Unaware that the doctor was still in the room, they were startled at hearing his voice, "Are you two quite done now? I know this is surprising news, but I would like to finish up this appointment."

Eiri and Shuichi both looked up at the doctor; embarrassment etched on their faces. While Shuichi resorted to blushing and burying his head even further into Eiri's neck, Eiri was left to respond.

"Uh…yes…certainly doctor. Please continue."

"Well, this pregnancy will have messed around with his hormones, if not already, essentially making him more easily aroused and sensitive to touch. Will that cause a problem?" Doctor Kano questioned.

Eiri looked up from Shuichi's red face and smirked up at the doctor, "I can assure you that it will not cause a problem…no problem at all."

"Okay then, we are finished here. Now, I just need you to set up an appointment monthly with me for the duration of you pregnancy to properly monitor the development and health of you are your child. Now with all said and done, I will take my leave and see on on our next appointment. Have a good day."

"Goodbye Doctor Kano." They said in unison.

Eiri And Shuichi left the hospital right after he had helped Shuichi out of the hospital gown and into his own clthing. Once they were comfortably seated in Eiri's mercedes, Eiri couldn't help but stare at his love, who was currently playing with his hands. He could sense a little doubt coming from Shuichi nd he quickly made to reassure him of his doubts.

"Baby, please tell me what's bothering you, and don't you dare lie to me."

Shuichi hesitated a second or two before coming clean to Eiri.

"I'm just scared. I mean I can barely take care of myself…how am I supposed to take care of another living being?!" He questioned desperatley.

"Well, you do know that you aren't alone in this, right? It's my child as much as it is yours. I gonna be with you the entire time and make sure to take care of both you and our baby. I couldn''t think of where else I would be than here with you."

Shuichi started to tear up and he let his tears fall, while throwing himself at Eiri. Due to his pregnancy, Shuichi was overly emotional and switching from one emotion to the other. Now that his doubt had been calmed he promptly received another problem. The doctor had warned them that he would be more easily aroused and that he was. All problems forgotten, he started to grind up against Eiri, groin against groin, after he had found his way onto Eiri's lap. Shuichi instantly received a reaction from Eiri; he was already hard, but Eiri knew they needed to get home first.

After their car ride back home, Shuichi immediatley strayed to their bedroom and laid face up on the bed. Eiri situated himself on top of Shuichi, s that he was hovering over him. At first, Eiri had a lustful glint in his golden eyes, but it quickly changed to one of concern and hesitation.

"Wait, baby, are you sure it's safe to have sex with you…you know…pregnant and all? I think we should stop."

"It's okay. When you went off to the bathroom…I uh…kinda sorta asked him if still could…and he said yes."

"Hey, as much as I would love to…I'd prefer to wait until the baby is born. I just don't want to take any chances."

Tears immediatley welled up in his eyes and cascaded down his cheeks. His bottom lip turned out into a pout and started to tremble.

"You don't want me anymore because you know I'm gonna get all fat and ugly! You're so mean Eiri! I hate you!"

Not wanting to hear what Eiri had to say, he turned his back on him and went to sleep. Eiri was not at all shocked with Shuichi's reaction because one, he was pregnant, and two, well, he was Shuichi. With one final thought he laid next to Shuichi and drifted off to sleep.

Leave it to Shuichi to blow things out of proportion.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Shuichi was the first to wake up in the morning. He looked to his left and noticed Eiri still sleeping soundly and he truly looked like an angel with the sunlight ghosting over his features. The sunlight reflected off of his head and made it sem as thought he had a golden halo atop his head. He couldn't help but admire Eiri's constant beauty, whether it be asleep, drunk, cramming on the computer, or looking at him while making love, he always remained beautiful. Shuichi lifted his hand and guided it towards Eiri's cheek, where he gently stroked him. His feather-light caress had woken Eiri from his slumber and he cracked his eyes open just a little, making sure not to grab Shuichi's attention. Eiri took Shuichi by surprise when he pulled Shuichi down hoping for a light morning kiss. However, it didn't turn out that way. The moment he had pulled Shuichi down, Shuichi had roughly pulled back, scurried off of the bed, and rushed to the toilet.

Eiri was confused as to why he had rushed to the bathroom because he seemed perfectly fine only a second ago; then,it hit him like a rock.

It was just yesterday that we found out that Shuichi was pregnant! Oh my god. My Shu-chan is carrying my child…our child. I help but love him more and more each day, and it hurts to even think about my life without Shuichi in it. I have to admt though…Shuichi definitely changed my life forever. Well, I better go check on him.

He made his way to the bathroom and inside he saw Shuichi propped ur aginst the wall right next to the toilet. He had reached out to place his hand on Shuichi's shoulders, but his hand felt nothing because Shuichi had shot towards the porcelain bowl to once again throw up the rest of the contents that still resided in his stomach.

"Uggh! I don't know how much more of this I can take. This whole morning sickness has got me fed up, and it goes on and on all day! Those liars!"

"Well, that's simply because you have a baby growing…inside of…you…"

"Eiri? What's wrong?" Shuichi asked concerned.

"Nothing…it's just that…it's amazing how a baby, a human, can actually grow inside of someone. My baby is growing inside of the person that I love."

Shuichi was relieved that nothing serious was worrying him. He allowed a small smile to grace his lips before he responded; he himself marveled over that fact.

"It's weird…isn't it Eiri? In nine months we'll have a baby to take care of and see grow up…together."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A month had already passed by and Shuichi was already showing. When Eiri had woken up to see Shuichi sprawled out on the bed; his shirt haven riden up to reveal his stomach. His once flat stomach had grown to a small but visible bump indicating the life growing within him. He couldn't resist, so he went ahead and placed his hand on top of Shuichi's stomach. Hi stomach had definitely gotten softer.

"Hey there baby. You probably can't hear me, but I want you to know that I love you and your…mother, dare I say…and I always will. You're my baby and he's my love."

Shuichi had woken up when Eiri gently placed his hand on his bump. He was touched with what Eiri had to say and ending it with a light kiss to his stomach.

"I will always love you too, Eiri."

Eiri was startled, but when he looked up to see Shuichi's bright glimmering face, he leaned forward and captured his lips in a bruising kiss.

"So…I'm a mother, now am I?"

"Well, you are caring the baby…so naturally it suites you."

"I absolutely love how that sounds. It still hasn't sunk in that we're gonna be parents, but if it were to happen…I'm happy it's with you."

"I wouldn't have it any other way, Shu."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

For the next four months, shuichi and Eiri went about their normal lives, and attended their monthly appointments as requested. It was in the afternoon that Eiri and shuichi lay on the couch, cuddled together, when Shuichi suddenly lifted his hand away from his stomach in fear.

"E…Eiri…the baby…I think something's wrong."

Eiri's heart instantly filled with fear and worry. He got off of the couch and kneeled in front of Shuichi, who had also sat up in his place.

"What is it? What did you feel?"

"I don't know. I sorta felt my stomach move. What if something's wrong with the baby?!"

Tears had now gone over the brink and fell freely from Shuichi's eyes. Eiri had a faint idea as t what really happened.

"Let me feel."

"Uh…it was right here." Shuichi said this as he placed Eiri's hand on the left side of his big bump.

Right at that moment, Shuichi could feel movement once again and, honestly, it terrified him. He groaned in discomfort as the movements became a little painful.

"Oh, baby…the baby's fine. He's just decided to kick around a little."

The look on Shuichi's face was priceless. It was a mix of pain and shock.

"What! Why in the world would my baby want to kick me…his mommy?!"

Eiri chuckled at Shuichi's reaction, "Well, it's not like he's aware of the fact that he's kicking you."

"I know that, but…wait… 'he'?"

Eiri was now sporting a light blush on his cheeks as he missed what he had said.

"Oh…yeah…I'm…uh…kinda hoping for a baby boy."

"What if the baby's a girl?" Shuichi asked curiously.

"When then, I'll love her all the same. Like you. I love you all the same, even if you are annoying, noisy, spoiled, infuriating…"

"Hey, you can stop any time now…you don't need to remind me."

Shuichi looked down at his lap in shame and embarrassment that this was the way that eiri felt about him.

"Wait…you didn't let me finish…and sexy, gorgeous, beautiful, funny, oh…and great in bed." Eiri smirked at his last comment; waiting for Shuichi's response.

"Oh really? Well, right back at ya."

"No…but seriously. I really do love everything about you."

"Me too. You are everythng to me."

Eiri cupped Shuichi's cheek in one hand and leaned in to share a kiss filled with pure love.

Finally! I finished the chapter. I kinda kept putting off until later. I'm really sorry! Please review and I hope you like the story so far.
