Deathly Jester: Well this time I'm not writing this on a document...I'm using the 'Copy-n-paste' option FFN now gives you...Kinda cool really! That way no matter what computer I'm on I'll always have my story right there!

Kashino: yeah...no one really cares. But good joy for trying to update twice a month!

Jester: I try my hardest... considering the face I've got no sleep right now, I'm hoping this'll turn out right...I can work on it later before oboe class, or when I'm done with my school work...so yeah ONTO THE STORY!
Ps: A lot of this chapter's going to be about Yuki….yeah I need a few filler chapters so I can write off the writer's block…so if you don't really like filler chapters, this one might not float you're boat, but not all of it's going to be filler!

PPS!: A reader pointed out that last chapter I wrote she was 3 months, and 7 months till she had the baby…I'm sorry about the mistake…so I'm going to cover it up and say she was barely 3 months, and they still had about 7 months…And I'm sick so this chapter might be a little weird…Dad gave me his cold, and killed me in MONAPALY…My sister should have never given him boardwalk…Sorry about the rambling…I ramble when I'm sick T.T Colds are no fun~~~!

Kashino: ... 0_0

-Kashino's POV-

I'm going to break that blasted alarm clock if it's the last thing I do.

Reminding myself that if I didn't have it, I'd wake up late, and thus being late for work and baking cakes...I got over it. Until,

"Makoto...you need to get up...So you can turn off that annoying alarm clock, before I break it...and you." Ichigo said turning to the other side.

"Okay, okay gosh! - I mean I won't wait to turn it off, sorry for waking you." I said giving her a kiss on the check before moving to turn off the said clock. After I washed up, I went down stairs and started to make the batter for the cakes. Some chocolate cakes, mint, lemon ECT. When in walks Yuki.

"Good morning Yuki."

"Morning Kashino." She said washing her hands.

"So...how'd you like the gift Hikiru got you?"

"Oh the bookshelf; I love it, but Kat isn't going to let me put it up, says she'll have to move some of her stuff...And heaven forbid she do that! I can't ever put ANYTHING up beside a poster or two. She's got the whole coat rack filled with her stuff, and I can't have any more than 3 items out of the 20 hooks. She's got a queen sized bed...I've got a small twin bed...Not easy to sleep like that. I'm really sick of it; the room was painted, freaking baby pink...Do you have any idea how I feel on this matter?" Yuki said banging her head on the bamboo island in the kitchen

"I see your problem...I lived with an over his head ego filled pretty boy for the whole time I was in school over in Japan...He would take baths with rose petals...I feel your pain." I said thinking back to living with rose boy. "I'd like to ask for my own room, but Hikiru's already taken care of me and done so much for me. He's like the father I've always wanted! And I don't want to hurt Kat...that bad."

"My father did a crappy job raising me, told me I HAD to be a doctor, like everyone else in the family, but my uncle and I were the black sheep in the family I guess. You said Hikiru did a lot for you, what all has he done besides take you in, feed you cloth you? I know that's a lot, I'm just wondering what else has he done?" I asked whipping the cream that would ice a cake later on in the week when the shop opened. It wasn't going to open up the day after Christmas, that'd be kinda crazy...two days after Christmas.

"Well...One of the main reason my parents kinda kicked me out, besides being another mouth to feed...I was jumped by a guy a few days before summer break started. Stuff happened, I got pregnant, yet another mouth to feed. And I was for about a few months, the baby didn't make it past month 5. I was kicked out by my parents for about 2 months, Hikiru found me and helped me, but I guess going about two months without wasn't a good idea, and already not eating enough wasn't a good factor, I got sick a few times due to the fact I was badly a teenager, your body can't handle the stress of carrying a child. We're not meant to have a baby really before we reach 17-21 years old. The baby died 4 months 2 weeks and 3 days into me being pregnant. It killed me, not even Kat knows about it.

I was so freaked out by it, I didn't really eat for another whole month, Hikiru finial slapped some sense in me, my kid wouldn't want that...After that wakeup call I started to get my life back on track...It was going to be a boy. I was already thinking about names when it happened...I'm kinda jealous of Ichigo, she's got someone to take care of her during this whole thing...I had no one for a while, Hikiru could help me...but I still felt like no one really cared. You've got to take care of Ichigo, let her have what I never did, make sure she feels loved, even if you think she already knows...Tell her every day at least three times! Make sure she never forgets it. It can make a difference. She needs you more then you'll ever know. I was never told that. My parents kicked me out as soon as they heard another mouth was going to need to be fed. They couldn't handle it. So I packed up and left. Hikiru took me in, paid for the trips to the doctor and everything else I needed. But after the baby died; I felt like I almost robbed him.
He was looking forward to having a little baby boy around, his wife died in labor, the child died too. I think he was re-living the moments. I can see the joy in his eyes when he sees you and Ichigo…You two look a lot like them too. I've seen pictures of Hikiru and his wife…I've never heard her name before though. But you sure do look like them. Anyway I've got to go wake up Kat so I'll be right back-"

"No need….I'm already awake Yuki, why didn't you ever tell me about that? I mean I'm your best friend! I thought we could tell each other ANYTHING! I mean I told you about my crush, school life, secrets! And you couldn't trust me with this?!" Kat yelled before running off.

"Kat…" Yuki looked like she was caught for murdering someone.

"Don't worry about it, just try and not think about it right now. Maybe we can Ichigo talk to her. She'll get through to her! I know she can, I mean I was a JERK to her before. She'd burn or murder any type of food, unless she was eating it; as we went to Paris, well here for a 'bake off' of sorts. I started to realize there…naw even before that! I started thinking about her all the time before the GRAND PRIX started; I started to fall for her. We made a promise at a lake probably about…15 miles south-east from here. That we wouldn't tell each other how we felt about each other for a while. That didn't last long, we couldn't stop thinking about each other, we'd help each other with homework, go shopping for chocolate or cake mixes over the weekends…everyone was convinced we were dating. I wish! We couldn't get over the fact that we liked each other. We…we couldn't understand it at all, we used to HATE each other…She changed that. I'm sure she can talk with Kat.

- ICHIGO'S POV- (Didn't see this coming did you -.- )

I was getting ready for the day when I heard yelling and a door slamming…that's not very nice! What'd the wood do to you! Sighing I got up to go find out what the problem was. I walked over to Kat and Yuki's room.

"Yuki, Kat, everything okay?"

"NO! Yuki's a brat who can't even trust me with her HUGE secret that she could tell KASHINO!...Makoto not Hikiru, but he knew too! NO one ever told me. SOB SOB"

I decided to brace myself for the war I was going to take part in and opened up the door.

"Kat I'm coming in…What's the problem."

"Yuki was pregnant, she was jumped before summer break a few years back and it happened…She lost this child before 5 months…why didn't she tell me! She can trust me! I mean I'm her best friend, we even share a room!" Kat said throwing her arms around.

Too me it looked like it was her room, and she was a Cinderella.

"TO me…this looks like your room. It's painted pink. A really cute pink! But…Still, pink, Yuki hates pink, that rack over there is full on your stuff, she has like…3 hooks out of like…25!-"

"It's 20 hooks."

"Still…Is that a twin bed? A small, probably hard, twin bed, and you've got a really nice comfy large bed, maybe not a king but still! You've got a nice sized vanity and she's got a small desk…I don't think this is both of yours room. It looks like you're letting her rent it. And with the pregnancy…How would you feel if you lost a child? I'd be devastated! I couldn't live with myself if my baby died. You're also embarrassed about it, you lost your child, and you almost let it die! Your body basically rejected your child…I wouldn't want people to know I had a miscarriage…It's not something you tell people…It kills you. I think she didn't want to tell you because you might have looked at her differently. She didn't want that, because you ARE her BEST friend…She couldn't lose you! And you treated her like crap for it…how do you think she feels?

Knowing her best friend the one she went through almost EVERYTHING with, 'hates' her now."

Once I was done talking Kat looked around the room, at the coat rack, her bed, the desk and vanity. I saw the tears weld up in her eyes, she looked crushed! Truly crushed.

"I-I never thought of it like that, the pain, how I've been making her live! I-I'm a HORRID FRIEND WHAAAA!" Kat said clutching onto my shoulder. She started crying sorry and things like that.

"It's okay, but it's not me you need to be saying sorry to, it's Yuki. She must be crushed right now, now I'm going back to bed…It's almost 7 Am right now…And I want my sleep, it's bad enough Kashino's alarm clock went off and woke me up, goodnight~" I said walking to my room and falling asleep.

-Yuki's POV-

I was sitting in the café in one of the booths, drinking some hot chocolate Kashino made for me. He left a few minutes ago to do who knows what! I think he said something about 'Book's and a lake' I don't know-OH! Maybe it's the lake where he and Ichigo made the promise, that'd be a cute place to have a date…, SIGH I hope Kat will forgive me.

"Yuki, I'm soooooo sorry I was such a butt toward you, I never really saw how it was onto you! I've been horrid to you! Could you ever forgive me? Please do! I'll let you help recreate our room! Or talk Hikiru into giving you a room!" Kat said hugging me, still bursting into tears. I started crying really hard, I hate seeing Kat like this.

"Yes, I'll forgive you, just stop crying, you're going to drown me." I said laughing.

"THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!" Kat said still crying, just not quite as bad.

"Anyway, what should we do today? We've still got our science home work to get done." I said walking to our room to finish up our Christmas break homework.

-ICHIGO'S POV-

I woke up around noon. Dragging my self out of bed I walked over to our walk-in closet, looking around for a pair of jeans that would fit a 3 month me. I ended up wearing a white tee shirt with a mint great cardigan and a dark wash pair of jeans. When I had washed up and dressed myself Kashino came in, looking handsome as ever.

"Ichigo, come on I've got some-things I wanna show you!" Dragging me into Hikirus car that he's letting us use. We drove for a few miles in unknown places, but the farther we went, I started seeing things I remembered from my first time here. A few market stands I bought fruit from, getting ready for baking! I remember running ALL over the place.

"SO do you remember this?"

"How could I forget Makoto! You acted all cute whenever I would run off, all flustered and out of breath!" I said laughing, I saw him turning red.

"Well let's see if you can remember up here." Kashino said point ahead of us.

"That's where we stayed! And the gelato! What are we doing here?"

"Well, I thought it might be fun to get some gelato!" Kashino said parking in a spot that we could find, it was decently packed!

"Welcome to-! Ichigo, Kashino! What are you doing in France?!" A familiar voice/face said.

"Well…We've come here to have our baby." I said, pure shock ran though out her whole face.

"I though you two hated each other, always yelling at each outher…Well I could tell that behind all of that, you'd end up together. Oh I could only wish to see you two together! And here you are!" She said hugging us.

"SO what kind of gelato would you two like?"

" Do you still have the Sakura Gelato?"

"Yes, the names changed though, it's known as Kashigo around here…haha my daughter and I thought it'd be a good idea, if you ever came back, people always ask how we got the name…We told them the people who gave this place life. Kashino Makoto, and Amano Ichigo.
SIGH then they'd ask why their names were mashed up, why not name two gelatos after them."

"The Sakura gelato, it brought you two together even more then you were before…That and we wanted you two to get together SO bad." We turned around to see her Daughter, holding two 'Kashigos' handing them to Kashino and Ichigo.

DeathlyJester: Okay I'm going to stop here, I think 5 pages is good for now ;] You know the drill,
