A/N: Helloooo! I hope you're enjoying the more frequent updates, I've been up past midnight writing these but for it's worth it! Thank you for reviewing and especially putting me on Author Alert! Oh My that made my day! So thank you so much! I think there were 2 of you. Thank youuuuuuu!

It was a struggle to open my eyes that morning, I'd been waking up constantly throughout the night. I hadn't particularly felt that great and all though my morning sickness was now done and dusted in general I kept getting random urges to throw up, something that I ate apparently wasn't agreeing with my baby in the slightest.

I shuffled wearily beneath the covers not really wanting to move in the slightest. I assumed a rather protective position last night, my knees tight up to my stomach and my arms lent across it, it appeared no-one was getting near my baby without a fight. Opening my eyes and stretching revealed that Tohru had left her bed already, a quick check of a clock told me it was 10:30.

Yeah it's about time you got up too Umiko...

I hauled myself out of bed, peeling the covers off slowly as the coldness of the air surrounded me and dragged myself down the stairs. It was only then that I realised I hadn't put a dressing gown. I was now stood in there hallway with a tight vest top and shorts. The vest did fit me, just. It was a tight fit over my bump and it pulled the material as far as it would go, making my bump even more prominent than usual. Still, there was nothing else I could do about it now, I would just look like an idiot if I randomly went back upstairs.

I pushed the kitchen door open to reveal Yuki and Kyo sat with their backs to the door with Tohru nowhere to be seen, however Shigure had spotted me walk in.

"Ahh! Morning Umiko!" He chimed cheerily and the two boys spun round rapidly.

"Umiko? When did you get here?" Shouted Kyo as he went into a state of confusion.

"About the time you walked straight past her last night," Laughed Shigure earning Kyo a glare from Yuki.

"How on Earth could you walk straight past her without seeing her?" Asked Yuki grumpily, he was obviously not a morning person.

"Well.. I was.. I don't know!" Kyo shouted again, "But you didn't know she was here either!"

"Yes, because I was already in bed. How could I have seen her, you on the other hand, you walked straight past her." I had to stifle a laugh, Yuki made a very valuable point but this seemed to anger Kyo further. Remembering that I had not moved from the doorway I walked over and stood beside Shigure.

"Here have a seat," He said pulling out a chair for me to sit on. I sat gingerly on the edge of it not really relaxing as the others, something about Shigure next to me seemed awkward. He was sat stiffly, almost bolt upright, only moving to turn the page on the newspaper laid out on the table in front of him. Every so often he would glance over at me but each time I tried to catch his gaze he would look away quickly. He was breathing nervously, every intake of breath louder than the last.

"Would you like some breakfast Umiko?" Asked Yuki politely and I turned to smile at him.

"That would be lovely thank you." I replied as he handed me a bowl of cereal, "Where's Tohru?" I asked realising I hadn't seen her yet this morning.

"Miss Honda? She went shopping this morning." I felt someone staring at me and turned around quickly, only to find Shigure take his gaze back to his newspaper.

Kyo was apparently oblivious to all this when he randomly shouted out,

"I was tired! Was it my fault that I didn't notice her?"

"I thought we dropped that?" Sighed Yuki with boredom.

"Don't worry, I forgive you." I told him with a smile, trying to wave the situation off without what I'm sure would be a re-enactment show if what happened in the canteen that day.

"Did I say I wanted your forgiveness?" He shouted loudly and stood up from his chair, "Ugh, I'm off!"

"Bye Kitty!" I smirked, a sudden wave of confidence washing over me, plus his reaction was priceless. Both he and Yuki stopped mid-way through their current actions. Kyo was in the middle of walking out the door while Yuki looked hilarious, holding a spoon of cereal half way up to his mouth.

"Wh-what are you going on about?" He stammered nervously, "I'm no cat."

"Don't worry, I've been filled on every scrap of information about you guys," I replied with a nod, I immediately thought that made me sound like a stalker.

"So you know about the.." Yuki trailed off.

"Curse? Yes, I know about that." Yuki merely nodded and stared at his spoon for a while as the cereal fell off and back into the bowl with a splosh. Kyo looked over desperately at Shigure but it was in vain as Shigure had apparently blocked the conversation out as I he stared at the newspaper, either that or he chose not to help. Kyo was now lost for words and instead he continued to walk out the room leaving Yuki to ponder across the situation.

He now also raised himself from his chair but rather than heading for the door he headed for me.

"Umiko," He started as he approached me, "Will you come with me for a second?"

"Uh.. yeah, sure." I replied slightly confused at what he could want me for. Yuki reached out his pale hands and took my wrist into it as he led me out the room and into the hall. I gave one final look at Shigure who had once again quickly returned his gaze to the newspaper. Funny thing was, he had been on the same page for at least ten minutes now.

"I, err, I just wanted to ask something Umiko,"

"Yes Yuki?" I answered rather curious now.

"Well, I mean you don't have too but, well would you like to come to town with me today?" He finally asked and I broke out into a huge smile.

"Of course, Yuki. I would love to!" He sighed with relief and released my wrist from his grasp. He himself now broke out into a small smile as he glanced over me quickly.

"Stretch marks Umiko?" He nodded at my stomach, I hadn't realised that my vest top had done exactly what I had wanted it not to do! It had rolled up during breakfast, leaving my stomach bare to the world around. But Yuki was right, I had never noticed before. I indeed have my first stretch mark! The little red line ran across the side of my mid-section and it branched off into tiny, almost unnoticeable marks.

"Apparently so!" I laughed gently and turned to make my way to the stairs, "Thank you Yuki." I finished, turning back to look at him.

"For what?" He frowned.

"For asking me to come with you, that's all." I replied and promptly disappeared up the stairs into Tohru's room.

A date! A date with Yuki Sohma! The prince of high school! And I had a date with him!

A/N: I'm sorry this one was a lower quality than the other chapters, but truth be told I had no idea what to write about for this part, so it's a miracle I even got this. I didn't want to disappear on you guys for like 3 weeks like I did last time when I ran out of ideas. So I thought, better a low quality chapter than no chapter at all. Right? Sorry though!
