A/N: So glad to see you guys stuck around for a second chapter! Again, they're all human here, and this is highly realistic instead of some overly fluffy everyone is happy forever thing. Though I promise you, I'm still a sucker for happy endings. Let's get started!
Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Knight, or it's characters and I make absolutely no profit from this.
Rima found her way onto the sprawling Shiki estate without any problems, the guards knew her on a first name basis and knew that she was always welcome. The problem came when she came up to the Koi pond, where the footbridge was. She saw her boyfriend sitting there, his legs dangling over the edge, and she felt terrible. The guarded look on his face said it all; he was just as upset as she was.
"We were being careful." Senri muttered just loud enough for her to hear.
"Yeah, well, things happen." Rima found her voice – and regained her feeling in her legs – and settled beside him. "And apparently something happened."
"You're sure it's not just stress?" Senri asked, but even as he spoke he was pulling Rima against his side, holding her close.
"Three positive pregnancy tests is not stress." Rima gave him a softened version of her glare. "I just don't know what we're going to tell our parents."
"You're not going to... get rid of the baby, right?" The Shiki boy eyed her stomach with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"I thought about it for about a second." Rima shook her head, her heart thudding in her ears. "I can't do it."
Senri nodded, the small tension wrinkles in his brow disappearing. He opened his mouth, and then shut it, apparently thinking better of whatever he had wanted to say.
Moments passed in silence, and Rima stared down at the Koi in the pond as they swirled in the crystal blue waters.
"Anything you need me to do, just ask." Senri caught Rima's chin lightly and turned her face to his. "Don't be afraid to ask me for anything."
Rima stared into his ice blue eyes for a moment before she began her first request. "Tell the truth."
Senri blinked and waited for her to finish.
"Do you want to leave me?" Rima's gaze never wavered, she just watched him with an even, almost cold intensity. She wasn't prepared for him to say yes, after all they had been together since they were twelve, and known each other since they were toddlers.
"Never." Senri leaned in and kissed her briefly, only to pull away and stare deep into her eyes. "Not before this happened, not now, not ever." A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
"Good answer." Rima answered with a small smirk of her own and leaned in for another kiss.
Careful planning was executed to try and determine the best time to tell their parents. Ms. Shiki wouldn't be home from her movie set until later in the week, so too soon was out. Rima's parents were busy with their jobs until the weekend, and were in the best mood on Saturdays, so then was selected.
"What do you have to tell us?" Ms. Shiki asked, eyeing the two teens with a smile. She had always been the least strict parent out of the three, letting Senri do almost whatever he wanted.
"Yes, Rima, what do you have to say?" Rima's Mother, the strictest, near-echoed, while Rima's Father eyed his "precious daughter" with concern in his eyes.
Rima looked up at Senri, grabbed his hand, weaving her fingers through his. "Ms. Shiki...Mom, Dad..."
A/N: This is likely going to be it for a while, I do have other things I have to work on and I hope to get some sleep before I continue this. I do, however, have a faint notion of where I'm going with this, so let's cross our fingers and hope I don't forget. Anyway, what do you think so far?
