3.

After a while, I started feeling a little better, so I decided against calling the doctor.

Kid came and sat next to me. "Better?" He asked, slipping one arm around my waist and stroking my belly soothingly with the other.

I nodded and leaned my head on his shoulder. "A little, yes…"

"Do you need anything?" Kid asked, gently brushing my hair from my face.

"N-No… I'm good." I murmured.

After about ten minutes, I felt normal again. I lifted my head from Kid's shoulder and looked up at him.

"I feel a lot better now. Thank you," I said and pecked him on the cheek. Kid smiled and kissed me back, this time on the lips.

After we pulled away, I looked around the room. It looked a little dark… "Kid, what time is it?" He looked down at his watch,

"It's… eight."

"What? How long have I been sitting here?" I thought that only an hour had passed, at most. But we got back at two… so six hours!?

"I think you fell asleep for a little while."

"Probably… but why am I still so tired?"

Kid smiled and kissed cheek, "Because you're carrying two wonderful children in your belly. I'm sure it's putting a lot of strain on your body, so just relax and rest as much as you can, ok? I'll bring you anything you need so don't hesitate to call me."

I looked up at Kid. He's going to be such a great father… "T-thank you, Kid…" I sniffled softly.

"Shh, shh..." He said and gently wiped away a small tear that was forming. "No crying, ok? You're too adorable when you cry."

I smiled as Kid stood, reaching to take my hand. I took it and he pulled me to my feet. I should probably stop sitting on the couch so much; it's getting really hard to get up from it…

"Ready to go to bed?" Kid asked.

I nodded. It feels like I go to bed earlier and earlier each day…

I laid down on the bed and fell asleep almost immediately.

I held my babies in my arms. I smiled at their beautiful faces. After a few seconds, they both started wailing.

"Shh, shh, it's ok," I tried to whisper soothing things to them but they just continued screaming. I saw Kid walk in, coming towards us.

"Honestly Crona! Can't you even take care of our children?!" He asked, taking them from my arms. They immediately stopped crying and started laughing and smiling. "I was right; you're not fit to be a mom. You don't even know how to take care of them!" He started to walk out of the room.

"W-w-wait Kid! Where are you going?!" I asked, panic rising in my throat.

"I'm going to find someone who can take care of them!" He said, walking out the front door and slamming it shut. I stood there a moment in shock.

I bolted upright in bed with tears running down my face and sobs coming from my throat.

"Crona…?" Kid asked, stirring from his sleep.

I'm not ready to be a mom! I can't even change a diaper! But Kid is ready; he's good at taking care of people! I'm not good with people at all! How am I supposed to deal with two babies? I don't know how to do anything at all!

I felt myself sobbing harder and harder, to the point where I thought I would be sick.

"Crona! What's wrong? Are you ok?" I heard panic in his voice.

"No, Kid! I'm not ok!" I sobbed.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?!"

"I'm going to be a horrible mother! I don't know how to do anything! I'm such an idiot! Our children will probably hate me!"

Kid's expression changed from one of worry, to shock, and then to anger, "Stop it, Crona!" He said and grabbed me by my shoulders. He looked into my eyes. "Crona, you have to stop putting yourself down so much! Everything will be fine! You will be the greatest mother anyone has ever had. So what if you don't know how to do everything right now? Neither do I! But we will learn. We'll learn together, ok? You're not an idiot, you're really smart and loving and there is no possible way that our children will hate you."

"I-I'm sorry Kid!" I sobbed. "I-I-I just had a dream that… that… it just... scared me… and I was worried... I'm sorry! I wish I… I wish I wasn't so emotional… I-I'm so sorry, Kid…" I could barely talk because I was sobbing so hard.

Kid sighed and hugged me close to him. "Shh… It's ok. Don't worry about it; I know you can't help it. Just don't put yourself down, ok? I can't stand it."

"O-ok." I sniffled.

Kid kissed my cheek and stroked my back for a while. Eventually, we fell asleep in each other's arms.

The next morning Kid was gone, he left a note saying he was going to be gone all day helping Black Star with something. He told me not to push myself and to get plenty of rest.

I sat up and stretched. I think this is the most well-rested I've felt in a while. I threw the covers off and stood. I think I'll do some housework today. Kid's so great; he's been doing all of it himself. I should pay him back. I think I'll make dinner too.

Throughout the day, I dusted, vacuumed, did the laundry, made the bed, swept the kitchen and just picked up things that were out of place. It was almost five when I finished, so I started making dinner. I decided on pasta since it was fairly easy, we had all the ingredients, and it was one of Kid's favorites.

I decided to take a break while the pasta was cooking; I sat on a stool at the counter so I could still keep an eye on the stove. I only then realized how exhausted I was. I sighed. I'm sure Kid feels this tired every day, so this is the least I could do for him.

I heard the timer go off and I went to check the pasta. It seemed to be done, so I took it out and turned off the stove. I heated up some sauce to put over it and heard the front door opening. I turned to see Kid walking in.

"What's all this?" He asked, gesturing to the clean kitchen and food.

"I felt well today, so I decided to clean and make you dinner," I said, walking over and kissing him on the cheek.

He smiled big, "Thank you Crona. That's so sweet." He hugged me tight and kissed me back. After we pulled away, Kid sniffed and said, "Whoa, it smells delicious."

I smiled and went over to fix him a plate. While I was at the counter, Kid came behind me and put his arms around me. "Kid? I can't fix your dinner if you hold me like that."

"I don't care." He murmured in my ear. "Just let me hug you for a while."

I giggled softly and turned to face him, wrapping my arms around his waist and looking up at him. "I missed you today…"

"I missed you too. I'm sorry I came home so late…"

"It's fine. I know you can't be here all day every day."

"I wish I could." He mumbled, kissing my cheek gently.

I smiled and turned back around, "Let me fix your dinner, it'll get cold. Then you can hug me all you want later."

Kid smiled, "Ok, but I'm taking you up on that."

I smiled again, this time to myself. I love Kid so much… I really, honestly just cannot wait to see him as a father. He will do such an amazing job…
