Ok, As I said, I am still alive, I finally decided to go to the doctor Monday...to have her tell me: 'It's nothing, take painkiller' Gee I did that for two week already. But now I'm feeling a whole lot better and now that I finally got to sleep later than 4am I am ready for the day. Don't take me wrong, I really enjoyed working on the farm, but when you have a test the same week you can't sleep in the afternoon... Anyway on with the chapter. So, where were we...Ah yes, Anzu was just declared innocent and Seto brought her home to make more babies (just kidding).

Chapter 27: Decision

Anzu woke up the next morning feeling better than she did in years, she looked around, recognizing the now familiar furniture or the large bedroom she was in, it was 'her' room in the Kaiba mansion. It took her a while to remember why she was here an everything that happened over the past few days. She was free, the jury declared her not guilty, but that did nothing to make her feel better, she still killed Raven, regardless of the fact that she didn't mean to, he was still dead and it was her fault. She sat on the bed and sighed loudly, a part of her still believed she deserved to be thrown in jail for what she did.

She got out of the bed to go downstairs and try to eat something when she started to feel nauseous. Placing her hand over her mouth, she dashed to the bathroom attached to her room, she barely even had the time to get there before throwing up. She stayed in the same position for a few minutes, until she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up and saw Seto kneeling next to her with a comforting smile. Meyli had been sick a lot through her entire pregnancy so he had a good enough idea of what it was like, though he hoped Anzu would feel better.

"I suppose you didn't went to see a doctor yet." Seto said, after all, she discovered her pregnancy only a week ago, she didn't have the time. She shook her head just as Seto expected, still holding the toilet as if her life depended on it. "Then I guess we should take care of that today."

"Today?" Anzu repeated, she didn't have a doctor or any appointment, how could she possibly go and see a doctor today, of course she was forgetting the fact that she was talking with Seto Kaiba and he could do just about anything he wanted.

Seto nodded. "The sooner the better right? I just have to call Mey's doctor and she'll take you right away." Anzu nodded slightly an Seto smiled at her. "Come on, you should eat something, it will make you feel better." He said as he gently pulled her up.

Anzu waited nervously for the doctor to come back, she was sitting on the examination table with Seto next to her, his arm gently placed around her waist and his hand rubbing her arm smoothly as he tried to reassure her. "You shouldn't be worried like that." He told her. "Everything will go just fine."

Anzu just sighed, she loved having him around, yet, at the same time she felt like she shouldn't. After what she did, she didn't deserve to be with such a caring person. Also, another part of her wondered why he was even wasting his time with her in the first place. She practically imposed herself on him and now she was pregnant and he was stuck with her, she felt like a whore.

When the doctor, a small blond woman in her mid forty, came back on the examination room she had a small frown on her face, which made Anzu feel even worst, something wasn't right with her baby. When she looked up at then, the doctor smiled kindly. "Everything appears to be relatively in order, the baby has the right size and seems to be doing fine. However..." Anzu closed her eyes, she knew something like that was coming. "Your tests shows that your hormone rate is low, I understand that until now you have been under a good amount of stress, which usually result in a low hormone rate, this can lead to a certain number of problems if it is not taken care of."

"What can I do?" Anzu asked worriedly.

The doctor smiled. "It's actually quite simple, just avoid stressful situation as much as you can, relax and try not to worry much, do activities that you like, stuffs like that. If you can do that then everything should come back to normal." Anzu nodded her head in understanding. "Mr. Kaiba, could I talk to you in private? It's about your sister." The doctor asked, looking at Seto.

Seto frowned but stood up. "I'll be right back." He told Anzu before following the doctor outside.

"What's wrong with Meyli?" Seto asked as soon as they reached the doctor's office down the hallway.

"Nothing actually." The older woman said, sitting on her chair. "I just didn't want Mrs. Mazaki hearing what I'm about to say."

"What's wrong with her?" Seto asked instantly, worries taking over his mind, what if that Raven bastard had done something to her that they didn't know yet.

"Calm down, as I said earlier she is doing great, a lot better then I was expecting considering what she went through."

Seto smiled softly. "She was always a strong person."

"Actually, what I'm worried about is you." She said.

"Me? Why is that?"

The doctor sighed. "Mrs. Mazaki might be a strong person, after everything that happened she is emotionally unstable and will take time to recover. Pregnancy is a time of vulnerability for any woman as I'm sure you experienced with your sister. Mrs. Mazaki need to be with caring person, friends, family, anyone who will care for her and make her feel better, safe, loved. I understand that this baby is an accident, the two of you are not in any kind of relationship, you've only slept together once in a moment of weakness. How much time did the two of you actually spent together? How much do you really know her? Can you even consider yourself friends?" Seto eyes her questioningly, he wasn't sure where she was getting at. "You see, everyday or so I see young couples formed by people who got together because the woman fell pregnant, they've known each other for a few months or maybe a few weeks. Well let me tell you that these couples almost never last until the end of the pregnancy and if they did, they almost never go over the first six months after the birth. What I want you to do, is think carefully about your reason for being here with her, do you really truly care about her as a friend, a lover or are you simply taking care of her because she unfortunately became pregnant? If you are here simply because you feel obligated to take care of her because of her state then I suggest you let someone else take care of her, someone who will truly care for her or else you will only hurt her more." Seto stayed silent, he had no idea what to answer to that. "I'll see her in a few weeks, and I hope to see you as well." She said with a smile, heading out the door, indicating that she was done.

Seto walked back to the room where he left Anzu and walked in to find he still sitting on the same spot, waiting patiently for him. When she saw him enter the room she jumped on her feet and looked at him worriedly. "Is Meyli alright?"

He smiled at her. "Now, now, what did the doctor said about worrying too much? Meyli is doing fine, the doctor just wanted to set a new appointment for her." Seto lied, gently putting a hand on her shoulder and leading her toward the door.

On the way outside they passed by many people, Anzu noticed them giving her dirty looks and pointing at her while whispering amongst themselves. Seeing this, Anzu couldn't help but look down in shame, she could imagine what they were talking about...

"I can't believe they let her leave like that. Come on, who in their right mind would believe it was an accident? It's obvious Kaiba payed her out of this, actually they palled all of th-"

"You shouldn't listen to such crap."

Anzu turned around and saw Seto standing behind her with the remote control in his hand, after her appointment with the doctor he had to leave her and go to Kaiba Corp to do some work, though she was sure he was doing more damage control then work. The young dancer sighed. "It's hard to ignore the entire world." She said, looking back at the now turned off television.

Seto knelled down in front of her. "The entire world wasn't there when Raven was abusing you, it wasn't there when he tried to kill you and it wasn't at the trial either. These people don't know what you went through, let them think what they want, they don't matter."

"But they are right! I shouldn't be here. I killed someone!" She yelled, looking up at Seto with teary eyes.

"Did you mean to?" Seto asked, looking deep into her eyes. "Did you ever once thought about killing him?"

"B-but it doesn't change anything!" Anzu finally answered after a moment of silence.

"Yes it does." She shot back. "It was an accident, it's now you fault. He was the one abusing you, he was the one who kept you from seeking your friends and he's the one who tried to kill you. He's the one who pulled out a gun Anzu, you protected yourself and you had every right to, you have to accept that this is not your fault and forgive yourself.

"But none of this would have happened if I hadn't slept with you." She said, avoiding his eyes.

Seto gently grabbed her chin and turned her head to make her look at him. "No one can blame you for seeking comfort, you don't deserve to be killed for that." He could see that Anzu appeared uneasy, as if she wanted to ask something but she didn't dare to do it, he sat down next to her on the couch and placed his hand on her shoulder. "What's wrong?"

Anzu hesitated for moment but Seto didn't push her, he decided to give her the time she needed, finally she looked up at him. "Aren't you mad at me?"

Seto was surprised by he question. "Mad? About what?"

"About the baby." She said, looking back down.

Seto sighed, he didn't expect her to bring it up so early, but then again, she wasn't the kind of girl who ran away from her problems. "Last time I checked, it takes two people to make a baby and I think I'm more to blame than you, you weren't feeling well back then, I shouldn't have let my feelings take over like that. I'm not mad at you at all, I guess what happened that night was a mistake but you'll never hear me say that I regret it. Of course I wasn't expecting you to fall pregnant and I'm not sure what to think." He added, looking down too. "Actually I've been thinking all day about us and the baby. I like you, I really do, maybe I even love you, I've never been good at sorting my feelings" That statement made Anzu smile slightly. "but we haven't seen each other in years and we weren't really on good term back then, and now even if we could say that we are friends we don't even know each other that well. I don't think it would be wise for us to get together because of the baby, I don't even think what we have would be enough to get in a relationship at all." He looked up at her. "What I mean is, if we do get in a relationship, I want it to be because we love each other, actually I'd really like that." Anzu looked up at him with a little hope in her eyes. "But not now," Anzu blinked, she wasn't sure what he meant, but she decided to let him continue before asking questions. "I don't think you should get involved with anyone right now, you need to sort out everything that happened lately, you need to take the time to feel better and find out what you really want, then, we'll see. I'll wait until then, after that we can decide what we'll do and even if it doesn't work between us, I want you to know that I'll always make sure you and our child have everything you need."

Arrow: Well...I guess that's where I stop for now...hmmm 1pm already...I have to be at the farm at 4. Well I have to say that having a 10h night of sleep really helped a lot (and getting out of bed at 9 instead of 4am is really fun) So, next chapter should be the last one, I'll try to get it out next weekend at the latest...oh no wait, I have this weird camping trip at school...well I'll still try to get it done by next weekend.

Tristan: I'm still not in this chapter.
