Two days past since Fai and Kurogane visited the hospital. The magician found himself anxious to know why he was so sick. He sat at the kitchen table, hands folded on the table and eyes focused on his hands.

Kurogane and Syaoran sat across the other side, watching their friend's face fall right before their eyes. He was getting more depressed, which worried both of them, though Kurogane would never admit it.

Syaoran tried to reassure Fai that everything was going to be ok, but he didn't seem to listen to him. Fai's mind was whirling down a wind shaft of emotions, and he just wanted to waves of pain to stop.

The youngest opened his mouth to speak after what seemed like an hour of silence, when the phone hanging on the wall by Fai went off, breaking the silence for the kid.

"I got it." Fai said a bit sadly and grabbed the phone, putting it to his ear. "Hello?" He asked, then waited for the person to speak.

The other two tried to listen in, but it was hard to heard. The most they heard was a soft muffled "Fai?"

"Yes." The mage said back. Whoever was on the phone continued to talk, but the other two couldn't make anything out.

Fai paused for a second, his eyes widened when the man was done speaking. "...Are you sure?" Kurogane and Syaoran looked at eachother, then back at Fai.

"What's wrong, Fai-san?" Syaoran asked. The blonde's face struck horror, he dropped the phone and made a mad dash out the door and into the darkness of the freezing cold rain.

Kurogane and Syaoran ran after him. When Fai got out into the yard, he collapsed onto the ground. Luckily Kurogane was quick enough to reach him and he caught him.

The ninja turned him onto his back and supported him with his knee. "Hey, what's going on?" he asked him. It was like Fai didn't hear him. He closed his eyes and shook his head, saying "No, no, no...This can't be happening..."

Syaoran knelt by them. "Please, tell us what's wrong!" Fai buried his face into Kurogane's chest and grabbed onto his shirt. He started sobbing and quietly whispered.

"What?" Syaoran asked, not being about to tell what he said. He figured Kurogane heard him though, because he had the same face Fai just had a few seconds ago.

Fai spoke louder. "I...I'm...pregnant." He choked on a sob and rested the side of his face against Kurogane's chest. The world started to leave his mind, and his body went numb.

Syaoran's eyes went wide as well. "B..But how?" He almost shouted. Fai just shook his head. "A more important question, who's is it?" Kurogane stepped in. Fai slowly looked up at the man who asked the question.

"Oh no, don't look at me, it's not mine." He denied. Fai gripped harder on Kurogane's shirt. "I'm sure it is...one hundred percent..."

"No, it's impossible!" He shouted.

"You remember...when we drank that night, about two months ago?" Fai said softly, putting his head down in shame.

"Yeah..."

"You...you went to asleep, but you said you didn't remember an event before that..."

It was Kurogane's turn to feel ashamed. "I...we...?" He wasn't even sure what to say at that moment.

"You over-powered me...and we had sex. I couldn't stop you." Kurogane felt something flutter in his stomach, guilt?

'I really...raped him? I don't even remember it..' He stood up, picking Fai up bridal style. "We should stay in this world, just until it's born...It would be dangerous for him to travel in the condition, and he already has a doctor here who knows about it." Syaoran said quietly.

"Right.." Kurogane agreed with him. He turned around and started to walk back inside with Fai in his arms. He needed to get the mage out of the rain.

Fai stayed quiet, remembering what the doctor had told him. "I estimate you to be about two months along. Be careful with what you do from now on." That's what he had told him. What was he going to do now?

'This is awful..' He thought to himself. It was going to make everything harder now. Looking for the feather, fighting...and more importantly, with Kurogane..

The ninja slowly walked into Fai's room and gently laid him down on his bed. The magician turned his head away in embarrassment. Everything would have been fine if this thing didn't have to take control. He would be fine, Kurogane wouldn't have found out what had happened, they could have just lived normally. Well, forget that plan.

Kurogane sat down on Fai's bed. He studied Fai for a few seconds. He decided to break the silence that was choking his sanity.

"You're sure you're with child?" He asked. His response was a slow nod. "And it's really mine?" Another nod.

Kurogane was shocked, to say the least. He had no idea what to think about sleeping with his best MALE friends, much less knocking him up.

"Well then...I have no choice but to protect you for the child. But, get one thing clear, I can't, nor will I love you like a normal father would. We will never be a real family. But I will be there for you, for the kid." Fai's eyes widened by what he said.

Kurogane didn't even bother to hear what he had to say, he just stood up and made his way out the door.

Fai felt so vulnerable. He knew this was going to happen. He just basically got rejected. Kurogane had no feelings for him, and he never will, he wasn't surprised at all.

He began thinking of the possibilities that he could do. Get rid of it? No, that's out of the question, he would never kill an innocent unborn human. What about adoption? Yeah, that sounded best. He wouldn't have to deal with taking care of it or the awkwardness between him and Kurogane. Plus, it would go to a good, REAL, family.

Wait...Kurogane...Shouldn't he get his consent too? 'Oh who cares, he doesn't...'

Fai decided it, he would have the child, and put it up for adoption. He figured it would be best to keep the plan a secret from the others, just until he's ready to tell them.
