-a few months later-
Elias walked into the room with a bowl of soup for her.. "here is the soup you requested Chise how are you feeling?" he asked.. He hadn't let her get out of bed for a while as he was being protective. Chise sighed, "I'm alright but can I please get out of bed I'm bored'' she said crossing her arms. "I promise I won't run off and use magic please'' she said giving him her best cute face. Elias tried to resist and he sighed, "okay but only if you keep your promise and not use any magic I don't need you getting sick since your carrying our child'' he said setting the soup down.. "eat first then we can go for a walk if you like'' he purred.
Chise smiled and she picked up the bowl and started eating. "thank you I've been cooped up in bed for days I need to stretch my legs'' she said happily. Once she finished her soup she set the bowl down.. She proceeded to get up and she was stopped.. "'wait let me help you'' he said going over and was going to pick her up.. Suddenly she was mad for no reason, "Elias no I'm fine I can get up on my own!" she said almost yelling. Elias backed off, "okay sorry'' he said whimpering softly.
Chise frowned, "sorry I didn't mean to yell at you'' she said getting out of bed. She walked over to the dresser and got out some clothes. She got changed and then she smiled. "okay lets go for that walk before my back says no'' she smiled.
Chise left the house with Elias and held his hand as they walked around the garden together.
While they were walking Chise felt a bit in pain and she stopped.. "Elias baby is moving it hurts'' she said holding her stomach… She looked at him with a pained face.. "can you help me''? she asked. Elias thought about it, "um I don't think I want to use any magic on you right now just relax it will pass'' he said picking her up and holding her close.. Chise nodded, and she closed her eyes and relaxed and soon enough like he said it passed… "there I feel much better'' she said nuzzling him.
Elias set her down, '' I'm glad you feel better'' he purred. He continue the walk with her. They walked for a while until she got tired. "okay I think my back is protesting I think we should head back'' she said wincing in pain. Elias was going to pick her up again out of habit, He went to wrap his arms around her but he yelped when he was hit.. He backed up and he whimpered, "did I do something wrong?" he asked holding his face. Chise frowned, '' I can walk still I don't need to be carried all the time!" she said angrily. Elias nodded and he watched her storm off and he rubbed his muzzle where she hit him.. He didn't expect it to hurt and he sighed. He wanted to follow her but she was angry with him and he didn't want to anger her further. He went into the house and sat on the sofa and sulked and he sighed.
Chise went to the bedroom and curled up in bed and she sighed.. "I hit him why did I do that he probably hates me now'' she said sniffling softly. She began to cry softly and she burried her face into his pillow and sobbed. Elias heard her cry and he appeared in the room. "what's wrong Chise?" he asked worried. Chise heard his voice and she sat up and wrapped her arms around him, "I'm sorry I hit you I didn't mean too I love you'' she said crying into his shirt. Elias frowned and he rubbed her back, "its alright Erin warned me about mood swings I guess I was just surprised'' she said comforting her.
Chise sniffled and she looked up and tried to relax.. "I can't wait for this child to be born Elias I don't like being mean to you it doesn't feel right at all I never want to do that again'' Elias leaned forward and licked the tears from her face, "shhhh its alright I'm not mad at you just relax and calm down'' he said giving her a back rub.
Chise relaxed and she eventually calmed down and leaned against him.. "Elias your the best thank you for putting up with me while i'm like this'' she said pleased. Elias smiled, "of course I'll always be there for you Chise don't worry if you need me I'll always be here'' he purred nuzzling her.
Chise smiled and was so happy that he would always be there for her. She closed her eyes and fell asleep and purred. Elias smiled and he tucked her into bed, "Sleep tight princess'' he said kissing her head. He headed downstairs and took out a baby book that Erin gave him to read and he put on his reading glasses, and he proceeded to read it and learn all that he could so he would he ready when, the new baby arrived.
