Chapter 25- He's pregnant!
"Yami, wake up. Yami, wake up!" Yugi said, shaking Yami slightly. He sat back on the bed and sighed.
After Yami had fainted from the shock of being told that Yugi was pregnant, Yugi had managed to catch him and get him on the bed.
Yugi grasped Yami's shoulders and shook him violently. "Yami! Wake up!" Yugi shouted.
This caused Yami to jolt awake
"Huh? What? What happened?" Yami asked, being slightly disoriented.
"Well, after I told you that I am pregnant, you fainted on me." Yugi said.
Yami's eyes widened. "You really are pregnant?!" Yami exclaimed.
"Yami, I wouldn't say that I was pregnant unless I meant it. Yes, I am pregnant. Isis confirmed it for me." Yugi said.
Yami immediately sat up. "How long have you known?" Yami asked.
"Only a few hours. As I recall, you were in that meeting when I went to Isis, and she told me." Yugi said.
"So, we're really going to be parents?" Yami asked.
"Yes, Yami. We are." Yugi said.
The next thing Yugi knew, he was trapped in a bone-crushing hug.
"Yugi, this is great news! I can't believe that we're actually going to be parents!" Yami said excitedly.
"Yami. Can't breathe." Yugi squeaked.
"Whoops. Sorry." Yami said, letting go.
"Well, I don't need to ask if you are happy about this. That reaction just made it pretty clear that you're happy." Yugi said.
"Of course I'm happy. We're going to have a baby." Yami said.
Yugi smiled. "I take it that you're going to be glad to tell your parents." Yugi said.
"Of course I am." Yami said. He then placed a hand on Yugi's stomach. "I can't wait until you start showing." Yami said.
Yugi looked at him oddly. "You can't wait to see me fat and unable to get up without help?" Yugi asked.
"Yes. I think that it's not such a bad thing given the fact that you are pregnant. It's not like you are going to stay fat forever." Yami said.
"I know. I'm just glad to know why I was so sick the last few days." Yugi said.
"Morning sickness?" Yami asked.
Yugi nodded.
Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi and pulled him close. "Well, at least we know you're not ill or anything." Yami said.
Yugi laughed. "That's probably the only kind of good sickness that exists." Yugi said.
"Yeah. It probably is." Yami agreed.
"Isis told me that she would make me a medicine that would help with the nausea. She'll bring it by here when it's ready." Yugi said.
"That's a good thing. I'm sure that you'll appreciate that." Yami said.
"Yes, I will." Yugi agreed.
"So, when are we going to tell our families the good news?" Yami asked.
"I don't know. It doesn't have to be right away, but Heba will kill me if we don't tell him soon because I know him well enough to know that he'll be asking me when I found out." Yugi said.
"Well, I guess telling them will be a good thing. They'll want to know. At least this time, there isn't a discrepancy." Yami said.
"I know. With what Vivian did, it was a nightmare." Yugi agreed.
"That won't happen again. Honestly, I don't know that Father would put up with it again." Yami said.
"Yami, I don't think that anyone would try that again because everyone in Egypt found out what Vivian did, and they also found out that by doing that, it resulted in her death." Yugi said.
"Well, her death actually came from kidnapping Heba and threatening the lives of the Royal family and the court." Yami said.
"You know what I mean. The actions that she took started the chain of events that led to her sentence. She would still be alive if she hadn't made that claim about that baby or gone along with Aman's plan." Yugi said.
"I know, but there was one good thing that came out of what that bitch did." Yami said.
Yugi turned to look him in the eyes. "And what good could have possible come out of everything that she did?" Yugi asked.
"Well, I got to meet you, for one. I she hadn't done everything she did, I might not have met you." Yami said.
"Okay. So one good thing came out of it." Yugi said.
"Actually, knowing that you two were sons of Ra was pretty important, too. Makes me feel better knowing that your magic can really help us out in times of trouble." Yami said.
"Two good points then." Yugi said.
"Come on. You have to admit that if Vivian hadn't done the shit that she did, we might not have met." Yami said.
"I admit that you're right. Chances are that I would have never come to the palace if it wasn't for the fact that was helping Heba because of what that Vivian bitch did." Yugi agreed.
"Anyway, I'm just glad that there won't be the drama there was when Heba was pregnant." Yami said.
There was a knock on the door then.
Yami stood up from the bed and went to open the door.
"Hello, Yami. I was needing to talk to Yugi." Isis said.
"Of course, Isis." Yami said, stepping aside.
Isis walked into the room.
"Hi, Isis. Do you have that medicine for me?" Yugi asked.
"Yes, I do. Can I assume that you told Yami about it?" Isis asked.
"Yes. He told me." Yami said.
"Well, here's the medicine, Yugi." Isis said, handing Yugi a bottle.
"Thanks. How do I use it?" Yugi asked.
"Just put a few drops into a glass of water. You should only use it when you feel the nausea." Isis said.
"I will, Isis. Thank you." Yugi said.
"Glad to help." Isis said before she left.
"Well, that should help you out." Yami said.
"Yeah. I'd better put this somewhere so that none of the servants who clean the room don't get rid of it." Yugi said.
"Good idea." Yami agreed.
Yugi put the vile away in one of the drawers that he knew that no one would look other than Yami and himself.
"What should we do now?" Yami asked.
"Well, I figure that since we have to tell people that I'm pregnant, we might as well go ahead and tell them." Yugi said.
"Right behind you." Yami said.
"You can't wait to tell everyone that I'm pregnant, can you?" Yugi asked.
Yami grinned guiltily. "Yeah. I can't wait for everyone to know." Yami agreed.
"You're pregnant?!" Heba exclaimed.
Yugi nodded his head.
"That is great news, you two." Ryou said.
"You must be excited." Malik said.
"Well, you can't help, but be." Yami said.
"When did you find out?" Heba asked.
"Earlier today." Yugi answered.
"Well, this is certainly good news. At least this time, you were married before you got him pregnant." Seth said.
"Shut up, Seth." Atemu snapped.
"Well, if you recall, dear cousin, you did get Heba pregnant before you were married. You two didn't get married until after Hasan was several months old, actually." Seth said.
"You really are close to being killed." Atemu said.
"Anyway, it's great that you're pregnant." Heba said.
"Well, we weren't expecting it, but we're excited about it." Yugi said.
"Have you told Mother and father yet?" Atemu asked.
"Not yet. You're the first ones that we've told." Yami replied.
"Well, they'll be rather excited. I know that they were thrilled when I was pregnant with Hasan." Heba said.
"Despite what the bitch did." Bakura said.
"They knew that Hasan really was their grandchild whereas they knew that Vivian's child wasn't their grandchild." Heba said.
"At least this time should be a rather quiet pregnancy." Atemu said.
"Let's not underestimate the people of Egypt, or rather the thieves of Egypt." Marik said.
"Don't worry about it. We'll be fine." Yami said.
"Where is Hasan at, anyway?" Yugi asked.
"With my parents. They wanted to spend some time with him since Father decided that he would take the afternoon off." Atemu replied.
"We figured that it would be good for Hasan to spend some time with them." Heba said.
"Then I think that we'll wait to tell them." Yami said.
Yugi and Heba were walking through the gardens.
"So, are you happy about this?" Heba asked.
"Of course I am. Yami and I had talked about having a family of our own. Maybe we didn't think that it would happen so soon after we were married, but we're both happy about this. I don't think that a better thing could have happened." Yugi said.
"If you say so, Yugi. I could tell that Yami was excited." Heba said.
"Oh, yeah. After he got over the shock, that is." Yugi said.
"Yami was shocked?" Heba asked.
"Heba, he fainted." Yugi said.
Heba burst out into laughter. "Yami fainted when you told him?" Heba asked.
Yugi nodded. "He was pretty shocked. Don't you go telling anyone that I told you that, though." Yugi said.
"I won't. I promise. It's just hard to believe." Heba said.
"I know. I'm kind of scared to become a father, but I guess that's normal." Yugi said.
"Very normal. I was scared to death. Of course, I had reason to be." Heba said.
"I take it that you're referring to the threat that Vivian made." Yugi said.
"Oh, yeah. I was certain that she would make good on her threat. At least there is no one making a threat like that to you." Heba said.
"Yeah. Maybe one of us can have a normal pregnancy." Yugi said.
"Let's hope so." Heba agreed.
"Pregnant?! That's wonderful!" Amara exclaimed.
"Yes, it is. I wondered if you two were planning on having children." Aknankanon said.
"Of course we were, Father." Yami said.
"This is truly wonderful. At least this child will be very close in age to Hasan. He could use someone his age around." Amara said.
"We know, Mother." Yami said.
"Well, there will be another Prince or Princess for the palace very soon, then." Aknankanon said.
"Nine months, give or take." Yugi said.
"This is certainly a great day." Aknanaknon said.
"Well, I think we told everyone." Yami said.
"Not quite." Yugi said.
"Yugi, the council and the priests don't count." Yami said.
"Yami, I'm referring to my parents." Yugi said.
"Oh. Oh no. That's not what I wanted to hear." Yami said, instantly dreading it.
"Yami, they're not going to be mad." Yugi said.
Yami nodded, although he still dreaded it.
"Mother. Father." Yugi called.
A moment later, a brought light filled the room, and Ra and Isis had appeared in the room in their human form.
"You called, Yugi?" Ra asked.
"Yes. There's something that Yami and I need to tell you." Yugi said.
"And what is that?" Isis asked.
"Nothing bad has happened again, has it?" Ra asked.
"No, Father. I didn't call you for anything like that." Yugi said.
"Then why did you summon us?" Isis asked.
"Well, I wanted to tell you that I'm pregnant." Yugi said.
"Pregnant?!" Ra exclaimed.
Yami prepared to die.
"Yugi, that's absolutely wonderful!" Isis exclaimed, hugging her son.
Yami relaxed slightly.
"Well, at least this one was married beforehand." Ra murmured.
"Ra!" Isis scolded.
"What?" Ra asked.
Yugi laughed. "Everyone's been saying that." Yugi said.
Isis chuckled. "Well, it is true. In any case, we are very happy for you both." Isis said.
"Indeed. It is truly a blessed event. Congratulations to the both of you." Ra said.
"Thank you." Yami said.
"Well, you keep us informed on everything." Isis said.
"I will, Mother." Yugi said.
"I expect that you will take care of our son, Prince Yami." Ra said.
"Of course." Yami said.
Ra and Isis then left.
Yami then fell on the bench in the park.
"That wasn't so bad, was it?" Yugi asked.
"Yugi, I thought that your father was going to kill me." Yami said.
"He wouldn't have done that, Yami. The gods and goddess are not allowed to kill. They can only act against people once they have moved on." Yugi said.
"Then they'll kill me later." Yami said.
"No, they won't. Relax." Yugi said.
"Yeah. Two of the Egyptian gods were just here, and you want me to relax. Not happening." Yami said.
Yugi sighed. "Come on. Let's go back to our room." Yugi said.
"Yugi, there's no way anything like that is happening when I just saw your parents." Yami said.
Yugi swatted Yami on the arm. "Yami, sex isn't the only thing that happens in the bedroom. I didn't even think of that." Yugi said. "Not to mention we can't for three months."
"Why not for three months?" Yami demanded.
"Well, um, Isis said that we can't for the next three months for safety sake as far as the pregnancy goes. It's for the baby's safety." Yugi said.
"So, no sex for three months." Yami said.
"Well, not entirely. We could. I just can't be the one on bottom for a while." Yugi said.
"I can live with that." Yami said.
"Come on. Let's go to our room. I think that you need a massage so that you will relax." Yugi said.
"That is something that I think I can handle." Yami said.
The two headed for their rooms.
By the end of the next day, all of Egypt knew that Yugi was pregnant.
Which wasn't entirely a good thing.
Hope you liked it.
Next: More action.
