Here is chapter four and the official start of the mpreg.

Warning: not much, shonen-ai is ensued though and slight cussing

Just gonna say this, if you listen to No Matter What, which played right before Yami and Jou dueled during Duelist's Kingdom in the English dub, you can totally see that these two love each other very much, it is one of the most obvious Dragonshipping scenes, and please stop using the song for Puzzleshipping, it doesn't work that well when you think about it.

I was thinking, about adding certain characters from the other YGO universes out there, but only GX and 5D's since I know barely anything on YGO R (a spin-off manga that was seen in V-Jump in Japan). But this is just a small idea, and I think I might do… gender-bending IF I add any characters from GX or 5D's, probably Spiritshipping because I think that is the only pairing I even like in GX, aside from Zane and Alexis' boobs being a couple and if you don't get that joke then you need to watch the YGO AGX on you tube. And yes, since I don't watch the Japanese version of GX, I only know everyone by their English names, excluding Johan and Judai.

If you don't want Gender bending, then I'll go ahead an do another mpreg, I want Yami to have someone to talk to, who is going through the same thing he is to ease him a bit.

On with the fic!


Little Hands Fit in My Own

Chapter Four


Yami could only stare at his hands, the phone call with Dr. Choi had been over for forty minutes and he was still spacing out since he hung up. Yugi stared at his other half in worry. "Mou Hitori, what are you going to do about this baby?"

Red-eyes looked in purple and Yami bit his lip. "I… I don't know… I don't want it to die from the ungodly idea of an abortion, but I don't know how Katsuya will react to the idea of being a father to the child of a mentally scarred man for Ra's sake!" He groaned and buried his face into his hands.

"You should keep it and if Jou doesn't want it, well, he'll just have to suck it up and live with the idea of being the father of this child. Yami, I want you to be strong through this, okay? And you know that you'll always have me and Seto out there to help you in case if anything happens." Yugi smiled and Yami gave a small one in return.

"Thank you Aibou… I just hope that Jou will be okay with the idea of having a child, but I'm gonna wait until I'm a bit more use to the idea of having something alive inside of me, the very thought seems so weird."

Yugi gave a snort and rolled his eyes. "Yami, I had you living in my body for about two years, that was weird enough as it is, but you'll survive, you'll only have it in your body for about nine months, give or take a few days."

Yami nodded, laying against the couch and placing a hand on his stomach. 'I'll have to tell your father about you soon, before I start showing I guess…'


Jou watched Yami in wonder, confusion, and in a bit of happiness as he found Yami sleeping peacefully on the couch with Yugi sitting nearby, watching some crazy Japanese game show. Yami was never asleep when he came home, he was always fidgety and wondering where the blond had gone or telling him about his day.

Speaking of that… "Hey Yugi, did Dr. Choi figure out what's wrong with Yami?" Jou asked as he sat on the arm rest of the couch.

Yugi jolted slightly and grinned. "Just a bit of a stomach problem, nothing to worry about," He looked at his watch and cursed under his breath, "I have to go Jou, I promised Seto that I would be over at his place tonight and I really need to get going. See ya!" He waved and ran out the door, slamming it closed.

The blond blinked and then looked at Yami, rubbing his check and watched as crimson-eyes opened up. "Hey baby, how are you feeling?" He asked softly as Yami nuzzled his hand.

"Mm… better now that you're here… sorry, I took a nap to rest my stomach a bit."

"It's alright; I just want you to get better. Are you up for eating anything, I can make you some light soup." Jou asked as he walked to the kitchen and Yami sat up.

"That would be fine, I haven't eaten much today." Yami replied, placing his hand on his stomach unconsciously, though Jou didn't notice this at all. Jou made some broth for Yami and some microwave dinner for himself but he soon realized that he shouldn't have because Yami dashed off to the bathroom to throw up at the smell of his dinner.

Jou walked into the bathroom to find Yami coughing. "You gonna be okay?"

Yami looked up at him before wiping his mouth on his arm. "Yeah… that smell made my stomach churn real badly…"

"It's okay, when you aren't feeling well, certain smells can do that. Maybe you should get cleaned up and then you can eat your soup, how does that sound?"

"Delightful."


When Jou left, Yami closed the door and locked it before getting underdressed. He looked at himself in the full length mirror that was on the wall and studied his reflection. He still had the large scar, the other ones had healed and were barely seen, but he looked at his stomach from side to side. Not much change except for the hardness at the touch and the start of his stomach muscles disappearing already.

"I hope he doesn't notice that…" Yami bit his lip and entered the shower, turning it on and going over his thoughts on the subject at hand. He placed his hands on his stomach and sighed, can he keep it a secret for long? He found out that he was almost five weeks into the pregnancy and he was too horrified to leave the apartment to go and get a ultrasound to see if he really was or not.

But he was more worried with Jou, how would he react to being the father of a child created by a man? And if he wants the baby, how will they provide for it? Jou already worked two jobs and Yami was afraid of the outside world. Maybe he could talk to Kaiba and see if he would be willing to help out, and he knew that Yugi would probably force him into it anyway.

"Maybe… when I start showing… I'll tell your father about you…"


It was scary when he looked at his reflection a few weeks later. At first, he just got undressed like he normally did but when he did his daily check in the mirror; he finally saw the reason why he did said check.

He was showing, a small round bump was on his stomach and he was horrified if not thrilled.

"Guess I'll have to tell him sooner then I thought…"


Jou was getting bothered with Yami, which was something he didn't like. He loved Yami dearly, to death actually, but with Yami being sick and so… off, he knew something was up, something Yami was hiding.

Sure he wasn't there when Dr. Choi visited Yami, but he should still be informed of what was wrong with his small lover. He wanted to ask the older man or pester it out of Yugi, but it would be best for Yami to tell him what was up, plus Jou was probably forbidden to ask about a patient's medical records. It has already been three months since this whole sickness began or at least getting there and Yami was still feeling ill.

Was Yami that sick or was he dying? No, he couldn't have been dying; there was no way that he could with the way he was acting. Yami was still ill, but only in the morning and in the start of the afternoon, he slept more then usual and then came the strange cravings for odd foods and sex, though the sex did NOT bother the blond in the least.

He grinned at his reflection at those thoughts, hoping that Yami was up for sex when he finished brushing his teeth. Once he finished, he looked at himself and smirked. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness." He snickered and left, finding Yami with his back turned to him, already in bed.

"Hey Yami," Jou spoke softly and got under the covers, getting ready to pull him close but the other shifted at his touch, moving away and making the blond frown. He then noticed that the smaller boy was sleeping soundly and he smiled, he did want to make love but if Yami was tired, then he would let him sleep.

He studied his lover's face, seeing that it was as soft and as smooth as it always was and his droopy hair was in his face. Jou was surprised when Yami decided that he preferred his hair to be down rather then up, it helped distinguish him from Yugi. He blinked when Yami kicked the sheets off himself, lying sprawled out and his face showing relaxation after he kicked the sheets.

And that's when Jou saw it.

Yami's shirt was up a bit, exposing his tan stomach and Jou blinked, seeing it was distended a bit. Blinking once more, Jou got off the bed, sitting on his knees on the floor, and then placed his head on the mattress to see this at a different angle, and he saw the bump in Yami's stomach. Timidly, he reached out and touched the smooth bump, feeling his lover's warm stomach.

"What the hell…?"

He stared at Yami's stomach and then up at him. He felt the bump for a bit, poking at it as well, and Yami didn't give a big reaction over it except for a few minor annoyed sounds from his throat and actually swung his hand and hit the back of Jou's head, mumbling about it being rude to poke someone.

What was this thing on Yami's middle? It wasn't a tumor or Yami would have told him on the spot and he knew there was no way in living hell that this… thing… was from the flu. Then the blond thought things over, morning sickness, odd attitudes, strange cravings…

"No, it can't be..!" Jou gasped, but not loudly, he was trying not to wake Yami up. "But… I'll talk to him in the morning, and then I'm taking him to the hospital." He glared slightly, but not at Yami, he needed to make sure that he was right or not and if he was, how was Yami actually handling this whole life changing situation?


With a soft sigh of content, Yami was glad to wake up on his own rather then on the baby's terms to make him run to the restroom. He nuzzled his head into his pillow and placed a hand on the lump in his belly. "You're being really nice to me this morning…" He mumbled softly and sniffed the air, smelling coffee being made.

Sitting up, Yami got out of bed and tugged his shirt up as bit as he walked into the bathroom to examine himself and smiled softly at the bump. He had mixed emotions on the whole subject but he liked the idea of being pregnant, especially since he started to show yesterday. It wasn't noticeable unless if his shirt was up.

Turning, he walked out of the room and into the kitchen where he found Jou leaning against the counter, drinking some coffee. He looked like he was lost in his own world and didn't even notice the former pharaoh at all until he took a glance in his direction. "Oh, good morning Yami." Jou smiled and snaked an arm around the other's waist, pulling him close for a long kiss.

When he released Yami, the other was blushing deeply. "What was that for, not that I mind or anything."

"Just a little something to say thanks for…" He poked Yami in the stomach, "this."

The blush and the color in Yami's face vanish and he bit his lip, instantly understanding everything thanks to the look on Jou's face. "How…!?"

"I personally called up Yugi and demanded him to tell me what was going on this morning. I noticed your stomach when I went to bed and had to make sure. Yugi says you're almost three months in, how could you keep something like this secret from me?"

Yami turned away, wrapping his arms over his stomach. "I… I was scared of your reaction… it's not normal for a man to even be able to carry a child! I thought that you would be mad about this because it would just show how much of a burden I already am on you by being afraid of the outside and crying when you're not around!" Tears came down his face. "Uhh… fucking hormones…"

The ex-king blinked when he felt a hand on his shoulder and looked at Jou who smiled softly at him. "Please don't think of yourself as a burden, I allowed you into my home because I wanted to, not because I had to. And you carrying a child, one that we both created but didn't really know we did, is fine by me. I love kids Yami and I've always wanted to be a father, so please don't be upset and please don't think about getting rid of the baby."

"I was never gonna get rid of it Katsuya, I just thought that if you rejected it, then I would try and move back into the Game Shop, aside from having you around to calm me down, Yugi does a good job as well."

"Even if I said no, I'd still want you to live here, I love you that much but I'd probably tell you to give the child up to adoption but I don't want to do that. Now be happy Yami, we are going to be parents." Jou grinned and Yami gave him a small smile.


Yami's list of things he hated was long, very long, the top was actually occupied by, surprisingly NOT Bakura or Malik but for sea food of any sort since it made him physically sick to his stomach and he was allergic to it as well, but what came in a close second had to be hospitals, which he hated more then needles and other things like smoke and children who squeal to the point where they could shatter glass.

Hospitals were like a double edged sword, they either let you live or they kill you.

Yami had been in hospitals before, when Jou got electrocuted, when he put Kaiba into a coma after Death-T, even an incident last year shortly after he got his body where Yugi got his hand slammed into a door by a bully and almost broke it permanently.

When that happened, Yami was very worried and felt guilty because Yugi had been waiting after school for him when he had to do a make-up quiz. He ended up wondering around the hospital instead of facing Yugi and saw a room that's door was open and a body was inside with a sheet over its head, and the body was that of a child.

Since then, Yami didn't trust going into the building without a strong reason.

With a bored sigh, Jou turned his head away from the T.V. that was broadcasting some horrifying children's show with people dressed as monsters, with one looking like a red dildo and an African-American in a fuzzy orange hat and Urkel glasses to notice Yami's discomfort and gave his hand a small squeeze.

"Is everything okay, is it… the baby?" Jou asked softly since they happened to be in a busy pediatrics office. Yami only shook his head, saying it was nerves.

Jou sighed and let go of Yami's hand, he had convinced Yami to leave the house today and go to the hospital for an appointment with a doctor that Dr. Choi recommended for their situation after he called him two days before, soon after Yami told him of the current situation. Jou was worried about Yami ever since he found out; fussing over the ex-king to see if anything was wrong and Yami would then get pissy at him out of annoyance.

Soon, they heard Yami's name being called and walked over to the door where a nurse stood to led them to the area where all the different examination rooms were located.

Colorful cartoon characters from American shows and movies lined the walls of the halls and in the rooms to give the place a cheery atmosphere and to make the people who went in comfortable but Yami didn't by into it for second. The nurse led them to a closed door and she knocked on it.

"Mr. Fudo, a Mr. Mouto and a Mr. Jounouchi are here to see you now." They heard a muffled 'show them in' and she opened the door, leaving them with a man who looked to be in his early twenties with black hair that stood up in spikes, blond strikes running through the larger spikes on the side, his hair made him look like someone from a rock group or of some relation to the Mouto family. His blue-eyes focused on them and he smiled.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Yusei Fudo but you can call me Yusei, please come in." He stood up and let the two inside. "Dr. Choi told me that you happen to be a special case Yami, a pregnant male am I right?"

Yami nodded, fidgeting a bit since he was still very weary of people. "Yeah…" He mumbled under his breath but Yusei heard him.

Yusei nodded as well. "Alright, before we begin to discuss the situation at hand, I need to do a routine check up on you, now take off your shoes and stand on the scale." Yami did as he was told and noticed his weight. Yami was originally a perfect 93 pounds but the scale said that he was 100.1 pounds. He gained that much weight in just three months?

The doctor looked at this and then typed it up on his computer in Yami's file, checking the difference of his weight before and now. A slight frown on his face, he knew Yami should probably weigh more at this point but the boy was small, he would have to tell him to eat a bit more to help the baby develop better.

Then he had Yami got to the wall to check his height and he placed his hands on the small boy's shoulder's to straighten him a bit, Yami visibly flinched and Yusei blinked.

"Sorry… I don't like being touched…"

"It's alright, I've had a few young ladies like that come in here and I myself despise the idea of coming into contact with people, but I have to live with it, it's all part of being a doctor. Hmm… 5 foot 2, you've gained an inch since your last measurement." He typed this up and then did Yami's blood pressure before getting Yami to sit on the examination table.

"Alright Yami," Yusei began, "do you know what an ultrasound is?" He asked and Yami shook his head so he continued. "Well, it's a special device we use to examine peoples' insides to find tumors, pained areas, organ damage or issues, and of course it is mostly used in pregnancies. Now I'm going to need you to lift up your shirt."

Yami nodded and did as he was told. He saw Yusei activate a machine and Yami blinked, he had seen this thing before on that scarring-for-life video called the Miracle of Life video in health class that had everyone screaming and a few girls crying. So this thing was going to show him the baby then. Yusei turned to Yami and noticed his stomach.

"You're already showing this much? Dr. Choi said that you were just getting into the third month. Hmm… interesting." Jou looked at Yami and the doctor and knew very well that when a doctor said interesting, then something was up that they didn't expect.

Yusei took out what looked like a bottle for a sauce at a fast food restaurant and then warned Yami it would feel cold and weird and the boy nodded. He spread the tinted gel on Yami's stomach and had Jou turn down the lights to get a better look at the screen that started to show blurry images once Yusei placed the wand on Yami's slimy tummy.

Everyone looked at the screen, Yami and Jou were confused and couldn't tell what they were looking at but Yusei stared at it, blinking a few times before turning a knob and suddenly the room was filled with the oddest sounds.

They sounded like two fast heartbeats.

"What… what is that?" Jou asked, looking at the oldest person in the room. A soft sighed came from him before he looked at them with smiled.

"Those are your children's heartbeats. You're having twins."

TBC


Yep, Yami's have twins and they already have names.

The Pediatrician's office is based off the one I go to for my diabetes appointments, and the show Jou was watching was that creepy-ass Yo Gabba Gabba. I hate that show so much; the office always has children's shows on, that's why I bring a book with me. They also play kid's shows when I go to visit my mom in her area of work in the hospital after one of my diabetes appointments; usually I hang out in the back room, watching other shows in there.

I've had an ultrasound done before, but not because I was pregnant; it was to check my kidneys after I went into the hospital when my diabetes was acting up. Not kidding, the gel was inside of a sauce bottle and it felt so gross touching my skin, I hated it and the feeling stayed even after it got wiped off.

Next chapter: Yami needs to tell the others and how will they react to their friend's new life?

Please review and tell me if I should include spinoff characters or not.
