A/N: I'm sorry this wasn't posted yesterday! This week has been insane for me, and Katie's been busy too and it just slipped out minds. I really am so so so sorry!!! Forgive us? /hugs/

This is probably one of my favorite non-canon pairings (and by canon I mean Perfect, Golden, Emerald, and Ah-Un pairs….) Don't ask why. Also the next ..three? Yes, three (I checked) were written by Katie. I'm sure you're all sick of my writing by now anyways. --Scarlet

Tezuka/Kikumaru

"Eiji, what are you eating?" Tezuka asked.

"Sandwich." Eiji held up the plate. Tezuka saw carrot sticks and apple slices as well as the mentioned sandwich. They were probably there to appease him. Eiji lifted the sandwich to his mouth.

"Don't eat that." Tezuka demanded.

Eiji halted as he was about to bite down. "But I'm hungry… and it's healthy… I even used your special healthy bread."

"Let me see." He gestured for Eiji to give him the plate. Eiji set the sandwich back on the plate and grabbed a napkin.

"Do you want to check the apples and carrots too?"

Tezuka gave him a half hearted glare as the redhead placed the apples and carrots on the napkin in front of him and slid the plate over to Tezuka.

Tezuka shook his head. For some reason, since the beginning of his pregnancy Eiji had began making sandwiches upside down. Bread, turkey, cheese, tomatoes, olives. Tezuka quirked a brow at that one, but ignored it. Eiji had been eating olives on almost everything since he had become pregnant, though seeing them on sandwiches was new. And then, between the lettuce and bottom slice of bread he found what he hoped he wouldn't.

Tezuka glared at the acrobat. "Eiji…."

"I'm sorry Tezuka… but I was craving it, nya…" Eiji sank down in his chair.

"You don't even like it." Tezuka rolled his eyes.

"I know, but I want it…" He pouted.

"No." Tezuka took the plate to the counter and flipped over the sandwich. He removed the lettuce and piece of bread and threw them into the garbage. He pulled out the lettuce and bread and reconstructed the sandwich.

"You suck…" Eiji mumbled, a carrot stick resting against his lips and his head on the table.

Tezuka opened the fridge and pulled a tube out of the door. He squeezed the contents of the tube down the sink drain.

"But! Tezuka!" Eiji whined.

"It's for the best, for you and the baby." He picked up the phone and pressed the number 4, for Fuji.

"Hello?" The tensai's muffled voice filtered through the phone.

"Quit supplying Eiji with wasabi paste. It makes his morning sickness twice as bad!" Tezuka said in his 'buchou voice' and hung up the phone.

A/N: If there are any grammatical errors, you will have to forgive me. I'm not a grammar goddess like Katie. --Scarlet
