Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Final Fantasy
"I have decided that it will be best to for me to keep the child" Lightning anwsered the doctor
"Are you sure Miss Farron" The doctor responed
"Yes, I'm sure"
"Well I am glad to hear you say that Miss Farron, I hope you know now that means you'll be giving up your oppurtunity for Officer Training."
"I am aware of that, but didn't you say that there were other alternatives for me to serve the military?"
"Yes there are but I would like get in touch with your lieutenant and see where you would be best suited"
"So what am I supposed to do now?"
"Well now I recommend you get as much rest as you possibly can, I going to want you to come in for a check up every couple of weeks, and I also suggest you pick up a hobbie something that will put yor mind at ease, I have notice by your posture that you have been going through alot of stress lately and I want you to do something to take your mind off of it, stress is never good for a women during pregency you know."
"Am I really that easy to read, I know I should take my mind off of Naruto but it's so hard with all this going around" Lightning thinks to herself
"I am also going to order some pregency books so you can know what to expect on these months to come"
"Thank you doctor" Lightning said leaving the doctors office
When Lightning arrived home she was surprised to see that Serah was not there, she figured that she went off somewhere with Snow, which she was kind of glad because she was not in the mood of hearing about wedding talk or her sister pleas and demands for her to seek out Naruto and tell him the news of thier unborn child. Lightning was surprisingly really tired when she finally enter the house, which was odd because of her training she was expected to have almost endless stamina. Was it her pregancy that cause of this? She would find out when she begins to read the baby books that the doctor had given her. But right now she was too tired to think of anything else so she decided to go straight to bed and get some sleep.
While Lightning was sleeping she was pleague by the same dream she has been having for the past weeks.
Lightning Dream
Lightning you got a sec?
What is it, Naruto?
It's nothing, you know we've all been through a lot together right?
Yeah we've all been through a lot. Lightning says
And we've all gotten a lot closer because of it right?
You can say that, but what's wrong you don't seem like yourself right now Naruto. Lightning asked looking a little concerned.
Nothing it's just….um….you…see….I
What are you sick do you need to be taken to the healer? Lightning asked as she walked up to Naruto and place her palm on his forehead.
No Éclair, I'm not sick. Naruto says as he grabs Lightning hand and kneels down on one knee.
Naruto then pulls out a something from his pocket and place the object on Lightning ring finger revealing to be a Diamond engagement ring.
I came here to ask you a question, Éclair Ferron will you marry me?
"Naruto...what...are....saying?"
"I am saving that I want to spend my life with you Eclair"
"Why are you asking me this Naruto?"
"Because when I first came to this world all I ever wanted to do was go home, when I got to know you and everyone else in this world everything change I feel in love with Cocoon with Pulse with everybody and with you Eclair. I want to spend the rest of my life here, I want you to be my wife and the mother of my children, ever since the day I met you I haven't been able to stop thinking about you. All I want to spend ever day my of my life trying to make you as happy as you have made me. Please Eclair do me the honor and be my wife.
"Naruto...you...don't know what your saying, what about your home, your friends, your dream"
"I'm not going to say that it doesn't matter or that I have forgotten about them, but it almost impossible for me to return now that the fal cie is destoryed and I don't want to waste my life search for something that might not never happen."
"Naruto you can't say that, just think about your life before you came here"
"That's the point Eclair, I'm glad that everything that has happen in my former life but if I had stayed there, I would of never met you"
"Naruto...I....No I'm sorry but I can't accept this" Lightning says and takes off the ring Naruto just had given her and gives it back to him amd turns around begins to walk off.
"Eclair wait!"
"No Naruto your just lying to yourself, you don't want to marry me, your just trying to find an excuse for giving up on your quest"
"Wait Eclair thats not true I really-"
But it was too late Lightning already walke off leaving Naruto there.
Lightning woke up in silenced and looked at the clock, aparently she slept through out the night with the same dream she has been having but this time she didn't wake up crying she turned around and checked her pillow to see if she has been crying in her sleep. To her surprise the pillow was dry, Lightning took this as a sign that she was getting over it even though it didn't feel any better then before. She got out of bed and decided to head for breakfest when she got there she saw Serah sitting their watching the news. Lightning walked up to her to greet her.
"Good morning Serah" Lighting said
"Good morning how did your doctor appointment go?" Serah asked
"It went well I going to have to check back with him in a couple of weeks"
"So you decided that your going to keep the baby?"
"Yes, but I'm not entirely sure why, I have no knowledge whatsoever of being a mother or raising child"
"How can you say that Light, you practicly raised me yourself"
"Well thats different"
"How is that different?"
"You and me both had parents to begin with, but now I'm going to be the soul person to take care of this child"
"What about Naruto huh, arn't you going to tell him since your going to keep the baby"
Lightning signed she didn't want to hear another lecture about her love life, or her responsbilities as a mother to inform the father of the baby. And she figured that she might as well get this over with, Naruto would eventually find out the moment the baby was born and the fact that she didn't tell him in that time would only strain their already complicated relationship.
"Your right Serah I should tell him, the problem is that I don't know where he is right now, ever since he started working with Sazh I haven't heard from him"
"So what are you going to do, go searching for him?"
"No, I remember that Sazh said he would be back to help set up the wedding, I assume that he will bring Naruto with him, I'll tell him then.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes I'm sure, he deserve to know and I think that it's time the two of us resolved some issues"
"I am happy but what about you career, what are you going to do now that you can't serve in the military?"
"My doctor and my lieutenant are going over that, to see what other position I could take in the military"
"I sure that not going to be a problem, you did help destory the fal cie I'm sure that they'll find a good place for you"
"Well I guess we'll find out when the time happens but right now I guess I should start reading these baby books the doctor has given me."
With that begin said Lightning began to read the baby books while eating her breakfest. She wanted to get a better understanding of what she was going to have to good through in the months to come. As she continued to read through the book she made a note to take down the key things that she would need to do to have a healthy pregnacy.
1 Eat Nutritious Meals and Snacks
That was kind of a no brainer, Lightning always had a great diet and it was conivent for her that she wouldn't have to change her eating habits
2 Take Prenatal Vitamins
This was one thing that she would have to start doing, Lightning was always healthy and never needed to take vitamins.
3 Exercise
Was also something that Lightning was always doing on her free time she was glad that she wouldn't have to change that.
4 Rest When Your Body Needs It
That was one thing that may be a problem for Lightning becaues she hated to having to rest it always made her mind wander
5 Get Good Prenatal Care
It is important for every mother to seek out an obstetrician, midwife or family doctor for prenatal care during pregnancy. Lightning agreed with this and thought it would be best to start shopping around for a good family doctor.
6 Avoid Exposure to Harmful Substance
Was also going to be easy because she was never around anything she would defind as harmful substance
7 Avoid Certain Foods
This may be a problem for her becaues even though she would keep a healthy diet, she would indulge in some on healty food every once in a while.
8 Avoid Caffeine
This was a huge problem for her, because she was almost addicted to coffee and energy drinks so that means she would have to sacrifice for the sake of the baby
9 Make Educated Decisions about Childbirth
That was a topic she would want to decide with Naruto once she told him the news
10 Prepare To Breastfeed Your Baby
Lightning was not sure how to deal with breastfeeding she never in her life though she might have to, she would need time to get more confortable with the idea of breastfeeding.
In the time it took her to read the books she learned that in the next few months she would expect to have MORNING SICKNESS, Constipation,Fatigue, Frequent Urination,Heartburn,Breast changes,Faintness/Dizziness,Mood swings and apprehension,Headaches,Cramps,Skin changes,Hair Changes,Nails Changes,Changes in Visions,Vaginal discharge and Sleep disturbances. The more Lightning continued to read the worse she felt about having to go through all this, and began to wonder why so many women actually look forward to having a baby and why didn't the men have to suffer for this, after all there had a part to play in all this. She then decided to put the books away for the time being and focus on something different like what kind of new job would she get from the military. She knew was skilled enough to get any decent job if things didn't work out but she wasn't ready to quit the military completely just 's what she would find out when she checks in with her doctor in the next week.
The next week Lightning was again sitting in her doctor office.
"How many times do I have to come her everytime I here there alway something that going to drasticly change my life, well hopefully today won't be like my other visit" Lightning thinks to herself
Just the doctor enters the room
"Good morning Miss Farron how have to been doing?" the doctor asked
"No different then last week" Lightning answered
"Well thats good, I talked to your lieutenant last week to see if he can find you a postion in the military and I think we've found right job for you"
"What's the job?"
"Well the Guardain Corp need a resenative to serve with a royal family member to help strengthen the ties between the military and royal family. Your job will be to serve a certain family member, you will be his bodyguard, his assistant, his consultent."
"His?"
"Yes, you will be serving the prince of the Caelum Dynasty,"
"Are you sure I'm in the right condition to be guarding someone?"
"Yes, the Guardian Corp want to send their best to watch over him and there no one more qualified then you are Miss Farron, and beside this is mostly just politics there hasn't been an attack on the royal family for decades, and don't worry your benefits will remain the same and you will also recieve double the pay if you take this job.
" So what this guys name that I'll be watching over?
"Ah yes I almost forgot to tell you his name is Prince Noctis Lucis Caelum"
Well that chapter 5 folks I hope you guys enjoyed that. Oh and by the way those are actual facts about what women can expect in pregnacy(still think begin pregnant is fun kids). And yes I actually put Noctis in the story I hope that doesn't piss anyone off but I need him for the story you'll find out why later. So tune in next week because Naruto and Lightning will finally see each other again so make sure you tune in for Chap 6 N/L comfortation.
