Hey guys I'm back!
Sorry for the late update, writers block is a killer X(
Now I know some people have been slightly confuddled about what happened last chapter so just to recap. Yes Misaki was preggo with triplets but sadly she lost one so now she is just pregnant with twins.
Now on to the disclaimer.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN MAID SAMA OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS!

Baby Usui
Chapter 10
Takumi's POV
A week had passed since Misaki and I had returned to Seika. A lot had changed in the last week. The council members had started to pull their own weight, reducing Misaki's work load at school. We finally put Kanou's hypnotism to good use; after the doctor had recommended that Misaki tried to get more rest, Kanou has been making sure she gets at least an hours sleep while at school. Hinata and I have also made an effort to keep Misaki's anger levels down, the worthless dog had begun a vow of 'starvation', while I retired early each day to the roof.
However, all the help in world couldn't help remove the pain that stained my Misaki's fragile heart. We have been staying at the Ayuzawa residence since Thursday. I knew Misaki would need the comfort of her family.
I stood silently in the kitchen, quietly preparing dinner as Minako and Sazuna sat at the table. Misaki remained tucked up in her bed, only coming down for meals. Hinata had been by her side since we arrived, giving her that extra shoulder to lean on. A small tear trickled down my cheek.
"Takumi, are you alright dear?" Minako asked gently, concern filling her voice as she set her small hand apron my shoulder. She knew how hard it was for Misaki and me to accept that we had lost a baby, even if the kami's still blessed us with twins. I wiped the tear from my cheek. Shaking my head softly I raked my hand through my hair before resting it on my forehead.
"Thank you for your concern Mrs Ayuzawa, but I assure you that I am fine." I lied, smiling softly and slightly forced. I turned to grab the spoon I was cooking with, however Minako's hand beat me too it. She moved the pot to the back of the stove before escorting me out of the kitchen to the front of the stairs.
"Now Takumi, I know you feel that you need to be strong for Misaki, but that doesn't mean locking up your own emotions." She lectured, her face stern yet caring. With each word she spoke I struggled to hold back the tears I had been storing since we left the hospital.
"Remember Takumi, showing your emotions doesn't make you weak. Strength comes from showing the world that you're not afraid to cry. Always remember that's its ok to cry." She encouraged, in her eyes was so much sorrow; sorrow for the loss of my child, sorrow for the pain it made her daughter fill, but mostly sorrow for the strain this last week had put on me. When I looked into her eyes they showed so much care and love. The look you can only receive from a mother.
That's when I finally broke down, I opened the gates behind my eyes and let the tears flood down my cheeks. I let out the tears of loss for my child, tears of the guilt I felt for not being able to protect Misaki like I should have and tears I never knew I was hiding.
Tears of a son.
In that one moment I realised what it was like to have a mother. To have that one person who will always love you, no matter what happens. I finally knew what it was like to have a family. Misaki's family. Crumbling to the floor I buried my hands into my eyes and sobbed loudly. Not caring about who heard or saw. As I cried heavily on the floor Minako crouched down, wrapping her arms around me, her hands rubbing just below my shoulders. The small gesture telling me its ok, telling me to it all out.
Small footsteps ventured from the kitchen as Sazuna joined her mother in an attempt to help comfort me. The extra arms causing my tears to run harder as my voice started to turn horsed. My sobs and gasps for air echoing through the small rundown house. I knew that if I continued either Misaki or Hinata would discover me in my helpless state.
I spoke too soon, for as soon as the words left my mind a large rough hand rested on my shoulder. Confused and clumsily offering me some sort of small comfort. A small smile crossed my lips, my crying ceased slightly as I lifted my head to admire the people around me.
"Thank you." I whispered quietly, finding it harder and harder to cry. "Never in my life did I think I would ever experience what it was like to have a family." I confessed, my eyes now completely dry. I stood from my sorry state and placed my hand on the stair railing; staring lovingly at a certain maid's bedroom. I gulped a sharp breath, my hand slightly shaking. "Then I ran into a maid that shockingly resembled Seika's president. And that one maid, has not only showed me, but blessed me with the best family I could ever ask for." I returned my gaze back to the three people who along with Misaki had shown me nothing but love and care. Well everyone except the dog.
Minako smiled brightly before pulling me into an embrace; this time however it wasn't to comfort me, she was accepting me.
"Takumi, you will always be welcome into our family, I don't care if that grandfather of yours tries to take you away, because you will always be safe here, just as I know that my daughter is safe with you." I couldn't suppress the smile that crept onto my lips. I whispered a short thank you before returning the hug.
"You should go check on Misaki, you may think that she needs her family right now, but remember that you're her family too." She insisted, I nodded with a short smile before climbing up the stairs. The small family behind me retreating back to the kitchen. I stood for a few minutes attempting to compose myself, before finally making my way through Misaki's door.
Wow, so much emotion in this chap :'( I must say I nearly cried while writing this.
Takumi has had to be so strong for Misaki that all those emotions were being locked up inside.
Well next chapter we will see from Misaki's point of view on how she is feeling about losing the baby.
And for a heads up and slight spoiler, there is going to be a VERY special surprise in one of the following chapters.
And NO I wont tell you which one. You'll just have to wait and see. (Mainly because I don't know which one :P)
Anywho, I'd like to say thank you to all the people who have been giving me ideas for the names of the babies. They have been a huge help and I'm nearly done choosing the names. So if you have a name you wish one of the babies was called don't forget to review the names as I sadly wont be taking any more suggestions once I release the next chapter.
Well that's all from me for a while, hope you enjoyed the chappy :)
ZO-CHAN oVER AND OUT! x) x) x) x) x) x) x) x) x)
