Chapter 7: Birthday Shower

"Thoughts"

"Talking"

"So Sana? What are you doing for your birthday?" Aya asked at the groups lunch table. And little Sana was just digging away at her lunch. Actually, she wasn't little anymore. Her stomach was constantly getting bigger as the baby was growing. Akito was starting to worry how big the baby would be once 9 months came around. With a mouth full of food, Sana answered "I don't know" which was heard as "iwano." Akito eyed her. "Sana, try answering that again without your mouth full." Sana swallowed her food and answered again. "I said, I don't know. Why?" Fuka jumped in. "Well, are you having a party or something? It is your sweet sixteen after all!" Sana just shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe. I haven't really been thinking about my birthday this year. There are more important things to worry about. I'm too busy." She patted her stomach as she said that. Tsuyoshi started to speak. "Yeah, but you should at least do something for your birthday." Sana nodded. "Well, I'll definitely think about it, and if I do have a party, I'll be sure to let you know. I've got a week left to think about it." With that, she stood up to throw her trash away, and went to the restroom. While she was gone, Akito had something in mind. "Here." He passed out slips of paper to everyone at the table. They all looked at the paper, and saw that it was an invitation. "Uh, her mother is throwing a surprise party. It's also a baby shower, too. So, don't tell her. It's a surprise. "Who else is invited?" Tsuyoshi asked. Akito thought "Hmm? Well, there's me, my dad, my sister, a few of Sana's friends from working, and you guys so far. "Well, you should think about inviting Hisae and Mami too. They would want to come." Aya piped up. "Yeah, and some of the guys in our class too." Tsuyoshi added. Akito just nodded. "Don't worry, I've got a million of these. And, of course it's Sana, there will be more than just us at her party."

"Akito, if it's a baby shower too, we should get two presents for Sana right? One for her, and one for the baby?" Fuka asked. Akito nodded again. "Uh, I guess. That's what a baby shower is for, right?" Fuka nodded. "I'll get something really nice for you guys!" Everyone else at the table started joining in. "Yeah, me too." Akito was slightly surprised how much people really cared about Sana. "Well, I guess all those millions of dollars Sana has in the bank won't be needed now." He smirked to himself. Sana returned, and everyone quickly stashed away the invitations, and started talking about something else. Throughout the day, Akito was secretly passing out more invitations that he and Sana both knew. "I just hope for Sana's sake, no reporters will be at this party." After school, Sana and Akito were walking to Rei's car, when he thought of something. "Sana, I was thinking.." Sana looked over at him. "Yeah?"

"The night of your birthday, how about I take you somewhere? Anywhere you want?" Sana had a huge smile on her face. "Really? Anywhere?" Akito smirked. "Well, something I can afford." Sana nodded. "Oh course. Yeah, lets do it!" Akito smiled in his head. "Surprise party part 1."


5 days later, March 7, Sana's birthday and surprise baby shower had arrived. Akito went to Sana's house that morning to walk Sana to school. Rei was not going to drive them today. Sana wanted to walk alone with Akito. Sana came to the door and was already walking, when Misako pulled Akito inside real quick. "Is our plan all set?" Akito nodded. "Yes, after school, Natsumi will take Sana shopping for a couple hours, I'll take her out for dinner around 6, and I'll have her back here by 7:30."

"Very good. I'll see you then." Akito waved goodbye, and he walked Sana to school. Once, they turned the corner, Misako started to get the party set up, with the help of Rei. When Sana and Akito got to the school, everyone was constantly telling Sana "Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday!" Sana felt guilty that she didn't make plans with her friends. But, Natsumi was going to take her shopping for the baby. "I can't say no to that. It's something that needs to be done. It's more important than a Birthday party." She constantly appologized, but everyone just shrugged it off.

School let out, and Sana was running full speed (well, as much as a pregnant woman could run) to Akito's locker. "Well, Akito, I'm going to go meet your sister outside now." Akito shut his locker door and looked at her. "Okay, be back at my house around 6, and we'll go out." Sana nodded. "Okay! It's a date!" She winked, and ran out the door to Natsumi's car. "Hey there, Natsumi."

"Hello, Sana! Which store do you wanna go to first?" She started driving to the department store. "First, can we get some food! I'm so hungry!" Natsumi's eyes popped out of her socket. "Uh, Sana you'll be eating with Akito in a few hours. Can't you wait?"

"Uh, Natsumi. I'm eating for two, did you forget?" Sana smiled innocently. Natsumi sighed. "Okay, you win!" Sana had just used the same excuse she gives Akito. They went to a fastfood restauraunt, and Sana ordered 4 cheeseburgers, 2 large french fries, and a coke. Where Natsumi just ordered one cheeseburger, a small fry, and a medium coke. "My, Sana. How do you manage to eat so much?" Sana was just eating away, when she said "Iwano" again. "Uh, Sana can you say that again." Sana swallowed her food. "I said I don't know. I just do." Natsumi came up with an interesting question. "How much weight have you gained so far?" Sana stopped eating with that question. "I think maybe 15 pounds, last I checked."

"Do you have an exercise plan after the baby is born." Sana thought about it. "I will. I'm not sure right now. I might start off with walking or something, but I don't have a specific plan." Natsumi kept coming up with questions for Sana while they ate. "So, what's your birth plan going to be?" Sana nearly spat out her food with that question. "What do you mean?" She said as she wiped off her mouth. "Well, are you going for a drug-free birth, or.." Sana cut her off. "Are you serious? I'm going to be drugged crazy!" With that, she went back to eating. Natsumi giggled. "Thought so." They finished eating, and they finally went to the department store. When they got there, they saw a huge baby store. Sana got excited. "Oh! How cool! Come on!" She pulled on Natsumi's hand, and they ran into the store. There were so many things to choose from. Clothes to food to diapers. Sana felt like she was somewhat in heaven. "Now, I know where to go shopping for the baby."Natsumi pulled a really cute outfit off the rack. "Sana, what about this?" Sana turned around. "OOOHH! How adorable!" She grabbed it and put it in the buggy. They kept looking around til Sana saw the clock say 5:45. "Oh no. We better get to your house now. It's 5:45." Natsumi started to walk to the checkout. All of the items rang up and Sana saw the price. "Wow. You really need money to take care of a baby, huh?" Luckily, she was rich, or there was no way she could afford this. She started to pull out her wallet when Natsumi stopped her. "No, Sana. I'm paying." Sana's eyes went wide. "What?? No! Natsumi, I can't expect you to pay for this!"

"Sana, really? It's no big deal! It's my birthday present for you!" Sana just stood there and stared at her. "Natsumi.."

"Sana, you can't stop me." Sana sighed in defeat and nodded. The items were paid, and they were off to the Hayama house. When they got there, Akito was sitting on the couch waiting. "Hey there, Akito!" Akito turned around, and saw Sana and Natsumi with a bunch of bags in their hands. "Geez, how much stuff did you get?" Sana just smiled. "This is only half of what I bought." Akito eyed Natsumi seriously. "Are you insane?" With that, he ran out to the car and brought in the rest of the bags. He walked in the living room to see Sana sitting on the couch. She sat up. "Come here, let me show you all of the stuff we bought."

"Uh, Sana? Don't you mean I bought?" Natsumi piped up. Sana nodded. "Sorry, well anyway, just look at all of this." She started pulling out everything one by one. When she was done, she looked at Akito, and his eyes were huge. "Sana, you got all of this stuff?" Sana nodded. "Mhmm! We don't have anything yet. So, this is was a good start." As she continued to pull out more baby clothes, Natsumi played a little joke. "You know, if the baby turns up a boy, you're gonna be in big trouble." She started laughing. Sana shook her head. "There's no way. The ultrasounds come up clearer and clearer. It's pretty obvious it's a girl. No doubt about it." Natsumi was putting her shoes on. "Hey, going somewhere now?" Natsumi nodded. "Yes, I made plans with a few friends tonight. Happy Birthday, Sana." Akito quickly jumped from the couch and pulled Natsumi into the kitchen. "Akito, what? You know where I'm going!" she whispered. "Yeah, but I need you to hold onto something for me." He pulled two little bags out from under the table. "Here, they're my present. Take them with you." Natsumi smiled wide. "Ah, okay! Any chance I could take a peak at what you got here?" Akito simply said "No chance." Natsumi giggled. "Oh, fine!" She took the bags, and quickly ran out the door. Akito went back to the living room, and saw Sana with her eyes closed. "Gee, she's so tired all of a sudden." Sana is so small. It's amazing how she manages to walk around with such a big baby. Akito sat down beside her. "Do you just want to eat here? We don't have to go anywhere. If you're too tired to do anything now." Sana shook her head. "No, I'm alright. I'm just resting for a minute, then we can go." Akito just sat there and watched her. Her eyes were closing again. "Sana?" Her eyes popped back open. "Oh, sorry! Let's go!" Akito helped her stand up, and they walked out the door.

The restaurant they went to was really nice. It wasn't too fancy, but it was nice for a Sana's liking. "Man, I want everything off this menu, but I can't make you pay for all of that, but I really want it." Akito sighed. "Sana, just pick something. It's not like we'll never come back here again." He already knew what he wanted, the usual.. Sushi. Sana kept scanning the whole menu. Suddenly, she put her hand to her stomach, and groaned in discomfort. "Ow." Akito was instantly by her side. "Are you okay?" Sana nodded. "Kickboxing. Here, feel!" She placed his hand on her stomach, and he felt that baby kicking like it was fighting something. "Damn." Was all he could say. "Hey, settle down." Sana found it funny how Akito would randomly talk to the baby. She started laughing. Akito looked at her. "What?" Sana continued to laugh. "I just think it's cute when you talk to her like that!" Akito went back to his seat, and the waiter showed up to take their orders.

Their dinner was good. Sana was, for the most part, satisfied. She wanted more, but couldn't have it. Akito paid for the bill, and he walked her home. "Thanks for dinner, Akito. I really enjoyed it." Akito was holding onto her hand. "Sure thing." Sana piped up. "So, tomorrow is Sunday, wanna do something? You know we should go shop for more baby stuff." Akito nodded. "Yeah, maybe." They turned the corner to Sana's house. The gate was already open cause Misako would be expecting Sana home soon. All the lights were out. "Why are the lights out? Mama is home, right?" Akito just shrugged, and kept walking to the door. Sana twisted the knob, and it opened. "First time she's ever left the door unlocked." She kept walking, and everything was pitch dark. "Gee, I've never seen the house so dark before." She flipped one of the light switches, and all of a sudden, tons of people popped out of the rooms, and shouted "SURPRISE!" Sana nearly fell. "What.. is this?" She turned to look at Akito, who was slightly smirking. "Akito, you knew about this?" Akito nodded. "Of course I did. Don't just stand there, come on." He grabbed onto her hand, and they walked into the living room. "Mama! I can't believe you did this?" Sana looked around, and noticed one banner said "Happy Birthday, Sana!" There was another one, though, that said "It's A Girl!" Misako walked up. "Yes, and if you haven't noticed already, this is also a surprise baby shower." Sana started to tear up. "Thanks." She quickly wiped her eyes. They went outside, and that's where the whole party was. People everywhere. Kids from school, and people that Sana had worked with through acting. "Akito! I can't believe you invited all of these people!" She looked around, and so many people from school were at her party. She saw a huge table with so many presents on it. "Oh my!" She couldn't even speak anymore. She was more than shocked. Misako walked up to her. "Don't just stand there. Come on! Let's have some fun!" The party went on. They played fun baby shower games. There was one where everyone had a string around their necks with a clothespin on it. Nobody was allowed to say "Baby" or "Girl", if they said one of those two words, the person that caught them, got their clothespin. Akito was very good at that game. Him being too smart for his own good, he had his clothespin all night, along with everyone elses. The other game they played was just as fun. Each person was given a cup of water. In the water was an ice cube with a tiny barbie doll-like baby inside it. The person with the cup of ice to melt first, wins. And they had to shout "My water broke!" That game was just as fun, but not really fun for Akito, for his ice had melted first. He tapped on Sana's shoulder. She turned his way, and he just pointed to his cup. She started to laugh. "Akito's water broke, you guys!" Everyone just burst out in hysterics. Everyone was literally on the ground laughing, holding onto their stomachs with tears coming out of their eyes. Akito however, was sitting there blushing. It wasn't long til Sana had her music/keyboard thing out, and started to sing a madeup song about Akito's water breaking. Everyone just kept on laughing, while Sana sang away. Akito stood up. "Sana, that's enough now." Sana ignored him, and continued to sing. After she was done, she sat back down. Soon, cake and ice cream was passed out: Sana's favorite event. She was starving. "Finally, some food!" Didn't take long for her to start digging in. Everyone couldn't eat theirs, cause it was more fun to watch her eat it. "Why are you guys staring at me?" Everyone quickly changed their attention in fear of her getting angry. She did have her hammer beside her. Next, she opened all of the presents. Most of them were baby presents. There were a few just for her, but for the most part, the baby. Akito spoke. "Gee, she's already spoiled, and she's not even born yet." She kept opening the presents, and finally the table was empty. There was one present that she did not find. She didn't see anything from Akito. "Oh well. Maybe the dinner was my present. I've got enough stuff here."

The party was coming to an end, and everybody was saying their goodbyes, and leaving. When everyone left, the only ones still at the house were the Kurata and the Hayama family. Sana went up to her room real quick. When she walked in, she turned around and saw Akito there, with his hands behind his back. Sana started to smile. "How could I doubt him like that?" Akito walked up to her. As if he was reading her mind, he spoke. "Did you really think I wouldn't get you a present?" Sana shook her head. "Well, I hoped not!" He pulled out the two bags from behind his back. He handed her the first bag. She searched in the bag, and pulled out a jewelry box. She was too scared to open it. "Come on. Open it." She nodded, and she opened it. She gasped. "Oh, Akito!" It was a gold necklace chain. Hooked onto the chain was a medium sized stone. It was the baby's birthstone. "You like it?" Sana just nodded. "It's beautiful." She pulled it out of the box and put it around her neck. Akito moved her hair to the side, took the ends of the chain, and hooked it on the back of her neck. "Open the other one now."

"Akito, that's more than enough." Akito urged her on. "Just open it." She pulled the item out of the second bag. It was another jewelry box. She opened it. It was a very very tiny gold bracelet. A bracelet that an infant could wear. "Akito.."

"That's for the baby, if you haven't figured it out." Sana just ran into his arms. "Thank you! I love it.." She felt a kick. "and I think she likes it too." Akito placed his hand on her stomach. "I guess so." Sana giggled. She felt like talking to it. "It's pass your bedtime, young lady." She and Akito both started to laugh. "Geez, Sana you're already scolding her. Don't listen to your mother. She doesn't know what she's talking about." It seemed that the baby heard him, cause she started to kick even harder. "Akito, stop that! She's getting too wild. That's not exactly comfortable, you know." Akito just laughed. It wasn't soon after, they heard Akito's father call up to them. "Akito! It's time to go!" Akito looked at Sana. "Well, guess I'll see you tomorrow." Sana nodded. Akito stepped closer to her, and kissed her, with his arms wrapped around her. Sana returned the kiss and put her arms around his neck. They were really close to her bed. Sana ran into the bottom of the bed, causing her to fall back. But, she didn't care. She just continued to kiss Akito. With her underneath him, so many memories flooded back into their heads. For a moment all that existed was them until...

"Akito! It's getting late! You can make out with Sana tomorrow!" Yelled Natsumi from the bottom of the stairs. Akito got irritated. "Dammit." He stood up and helped Sana to her feet. He gave her one kiss on the cheek, and leaned down to kiss Sana's stomach. "Good night, you two!" Sana, even now, was shocked to see Akito act like this. "Well, good night!" He walked out of the room to his family. When he left, Sana thought "Who would've thought Akito would act so loving like this." She rubbed her stomach, and looked down. "Guess, I partially have you to thank, huh?" She got somewhat of a reply when she felt another kickboxing session. "Okay, you really need to settle down." She got ready for bed.

Akito got to the bottom of the stairs to see his dad and sister waiting on him. "About time!" Natsumi joked. Akito blushed, and walked out of the door. "Well, good night you guys! Thanks for all your help, Akito." said Misako. Akito turned around and nodded. As Sana and Akito slept that night, they kept thinking how everything just seemed too good to be true for them. It was like nothing bad would ever happen to them ever again. They were always going to be happy for the rest of their lives. Boy, were they in for a surprise for the events to come...
