Keiichi's POV
Okay Rena is now 1 month and a week pregnant...She is a bit...you know...moody...Yesterday she threw with a vase and it almost hit my head and because I was a little angry she started to cry immediately, which made feel guilty. She also had cravings these days. Last week it was strawberries, now it's vanilla ice-cream. At the moment she is happy, but she is a little too active.
"Hau~! Keiichi-kun! Let's go outside!" She said exciting. I looked at her confused. "Rena? Are you sick or something? Look through the window." I said while pointing at window. It was raining cats and dogs.
"I know, but I want to feel the rain." She said. I almost face palmed myself. "Why do you want to?" I said while raising an eyebrow. "So the baby knows what rain is, silly!" She said if it was so obvious. I sighed. "Rena, if I let you outside you'll get sick. So it's a no." I said. She seemed to get angry. "Hau~! That's so unfair! You're treating me as a child! I'm going whenever you like it or not!" She said and walked angry to the door. I growled a bit and followed her. "Rena! Get back here!" "NO!" she yelled back at me when she opened the door and walked outside. "Maebara Rena! If you don't get inside, I'll make sure that you won't see any day light during your pregnancy!" I threatened. She stood still "You're being so unfair to me..." She said sobbing. Oh no... "Rena...Come here...please..." I said more calm.
She obeyed me. Her tears were mixed with the rain at the moment. I pulled her close to me. Her body was now cold and her now wet hair made my shirt wet. I closed the door and we hugged a few minutes longer, I mostly hugged her to give her the warmth she lost while standing in the rain. "G-gomenasai Keiichi-kun..." She said still sobbing. "Hush Rena, it's okay...Just don't go outside when it's raining, it will make you sick and that's not good while your pregnancy." "Okay Keiichi-kun."
"You should take a warm shower and change in your pyjamas. It will probably rain the whole day so it doesn't matter what you're wearing." "So you're not interested what I wear...?" She said a little angry while raising an eyebrow. "T-that's not what I meant!" "Okay! I believe you!" She said happy again and she walked upstairs. I sighed in relief that she didn't get angry again. I could also have said 'Because you're always beautiful.' as an alternative. But I didn't have to. I sat down on the couch and closed my eyes for a while and drifted off sleeping. I woke up when someone shook me. I opened my eyes and saw that it was Rena. She smiled at me. She had a small bowl with vanilla ice-cream.
She ate it little bit fast. "You shouldn't eat your ice-cream so fast." I said. She sighed "Fine..." and she ate slower. "Good girl" I said jokily. She glared a bit at me "I'm not a dog..." She grumbled. "I know." And I kissed her cheek. She blushed a bit and she began eating her ice-cream again. I turned on the small TV and watched some sport news. Rena stood up and brought her empty bowl to the kitchen.
She walked back to the couch and she snuggled against me. I liked how close she was to me and held me arms around her. She closed her eyes a bit and fell asleep in my arms. After I while I turned off the TV and looked at the clock. It was around midday and Rena was still asleep. She sleeps much more than she used to. I like it to spent time with her. It's too bad I have to work tomorrow. I bet Rena is begging me to stay home, like the day before yesterday. She literally hung around my leg and cried. I was one hour late and had to overwork, which caused her to cry again. It was a hysterical day for me and I was exhausted. My boss knows that Rena is pregnant, but I've to work as hard as everybody, not surprising though. "Keiichi?" oh, she woke up. "What is it?" "Do you have to work tomorrow?" She asked. "Uhm...Yes, why?" "Do you really have to?" She asked me with those puppy eyes. I sighed. "Yes, Rena, I have to. Because if I don't I won't have enough money for us." "Okay..." She said sad and tears were almost forming in her eyes. "H-hey! Don't be like this! You're making me guilty!" I said and I patted her head. "Hau~...But being alone in the house is boring..." "Why don't you do something with Mion, Shion, Rika and Satoko?" I suggested. "Hm...That's a good idea!" Suddenly she put on a thinking face and I raised an eyebrow "...Wait a second...Do we tell our friends yet...you know about our pregnancy?" Oops...We certainly didn't. "No...We should, right?"
She nodded. "Well, we can tell them tomorrow." "Okay. But Keiichi-kun you didn't tell your parents either." "I'll tell them. Don't worry." I said. It was like we forgot to tell everyone, but we always talked about it.
The next day I woke up early for work. Rena woke up too. "Keiichi...What time it is?" "It's six o'clock, you can sleep some more." She shook her head. She stood up immediately with a yawn. "You're still tired, you should sleep some more. I mean it Rena." "No...I want to be with you before you leave for work." She said stubborn. I sighed. "Okay, whatever you want, but don't expect me to go sleep early because you're tired." I said. "Hau~!" She said pouting "...Then I will sleep on the couch against you~!" She said with a smirk. "Sorry, there will be no place on the couch" I teased. "Hau~...Keiichi-kun is mean..." She said sad. "Just kidding, but you should be rested enough before you go with Mion, Shion, Rika and Satoko. I don't think they will like an unconscious Rena. And they will kill, I think." I said. "Why would they kill you?" She said confused. "Okay never mind that." "Okay, Keiichi-kun." We dressed ourselves and went downstairs. Rena made a nice breakfast. Then she complained why she couldn't eat vanilla ice-cream for breakfast. I said it wasn't healthy for breakfast.
It took a few minutes when she gave in, but she glared a bit at me. When I was about to leave for work I kissed her goodbye. Okay, a boring day at work was waiting.
Rena's POV
Okay in few minutes Mion will be here. I'm kind of nervous about Mion's reaction when she hears that I'm pregnant. But I have to! The door bell rang. I ran to the door and opened it. "Ohayo Mi-chan." I said smiling. "Ohayo Rena." She said with a smile. I let her in and we went to the living room.
"Soooooo...How are you and Keiichi doing..?" Mion said with a smirk. "Oh, we are fine and how are you?" "I'm fine, especially when I'm with Haru¹" She said almost dreaming away. "That's good to hear." I said with a smile. "But Rena, do you talk about the future with Keiichi? I mean about how you two will live and about having children together." She said more serious. "Anou...about that ...You see...uhm..."I said. "Yes?" "I'm...I'm pregnant..!" I said. Mion laughed "I knew it! You can hide things from me." "I'm so sorry! Keiichi and I forgot to tell anyone! And I don't know why I did! And-" "Wow! Chill Rena! It's okay, you don't have to apologize. I'm not mad or anything. But how far are you exactly?" "One month and 8 days." We talked a bit longer. I got a phone call from Rika and Satoko, they couldn't come over. So Mion and I talked and had some fun. "Oh Rena, I don't want you to freak out, but I have to tell you." Just tell me." "Well, I saw some girl hanging around Kei-chan."
"What do you mean with hanging around?" "Well she acts a bit flirty to Keiichi." Ow...I felt something sting inside. I almost want to cry, which was easily while my pregnancy, but I didn't.
"How...How did Keiichi look...?" "He looked uninterested." I sighed in relief. "I'm sure Keiichi will never leave you. He loves you a lot." She said very sure. "Does that girl even know he's married?" It kind of angered me that some girl is trying to take Keiichi away from her. "I don't know Rena."
I suddenly broke out sobbing. Mion kind of panicked and didn't know what to do. "R-Rena..! It's okay, he loves you too much! I know he does." "H-He probably doesn't want me anymore because I'll get fat!" My mood swings are taking over at the moment. "That is nonsense Rena!" She said and gave me a hug.
"I shouldn't have told you this. I'm sorry Rena..." "It's not your fault Mi-chan...I would have found out anyway." We sat quiet at the moment. Then we talked more and it was almost in the evening. Suddenly the door opened. "I'm home..." It was Keiichi. He walked to the living room and seemed to be surprised to see that Mion was still here. "Oh hello Mion." He said with a smile. He walked over to her and gave a small hug. Then he went over and gave me a kiss on my forehead. "Oh Mion, Haru was looking for you today." He said. "He was?" She said. "Yep." "But I told him I wouldn't be able to see him today." She said kind of confused. So we went on talking a bit more and after a while Mion decided to go home. After she left Keiichi stared at me. It took me a bit longer to realise though. "Keiichi-kun?" Suddenly she picked me up and carried me to the couch. He laid me down and he started to kiss me deeply. He almost lay on top of me and he kissed my neck. I moaned a bit "K-Keiichi...Stop" He stopped and got off me. I sat up and he went to sit next to me. He held his head a bit. "I'm sorry Rena...I was a bit stressful at work...And you know how I can't resist you... "
"It's okay Keiichi..." "No it's not! I'm a fool...And there is something I didn't tell you yet..." "W-what is it?" "You see...there is some girl, who works at the same office, and she keeps flirting with me...It's annoys me so much...It makes me want you even more...I wished I could be with you all the time...So I'm apologizing for my behaviour..." He walked away from me and ran outside. "Keiichi..." that was the only thing I could say. I got up and run where Keiichi went. I opened the door and closed it before I ran after him. "Keiichi!" I yelled, but he didn't look back. Why didn't he?
Tears were blurring my view, but I kept going. I called his name once again and he didn't look.
Then I tripped. 'No! Not now!' I thought. "O-ouch...!" I tried to stand up, but my ankle hurt. I sobbed quietly. I felt so stupid that moment. I saw that Keiichi looked back and he ran over to me. I saw his eyes were wide. When he got over to me he looked worried, but also a bit mad. "What were you thinking Rena! You shouldn't have followed me!" He yelled at me. I got scared and sobbed ever more "G-g-gomenasai...! G-g-gomenasai!" His face softens. He picked me up and walked to our house.
When we got home again he got me waiting on the couch while he was seeking for some bandage for my ankle. It was bruised. When he was back in the living room he bandaged my ankle. "You'll sit here, while I make dinner okay." "But-" "Rena..." He said stern. "Okay..." I pouted. He poked my head. "Sometimes you are acting silly" He said with a chuckle and he walked to the kitchen leaving me blushing like a tomato. "Hau~! Keiichi!" I said embarrassed. I kept myself quiet for a moment until... Ugh..stomach cramps! I clutched to my stomach and groaned a bit. "Rena?" I heard from the kitchen. "Yes...?" I said as normal as possible. "Are you okay?" "Yes..." But I groaned again in pain.
"You don't sound fine..." "I'm fine...Just some cramps..." I heard him sigh in relief.
When dinner was ready Keiichi carried me to the dinner table and we ate in silence. After dinner I we sat down on the couch were we both fell asleep.
