Brian looked around the table as he and his husband ate breakfast with his best friend and Bret. Four months had past since all the couples had wed and everything had been relatively perfect for both of the couples. Bret and Shawn hadn't brought up the whole Sunny incident at the wedding and who was Brian to remind them of it. If they wanted to act like it never happened, then Brian was all for it but if Sunny every came around again and caused trouble for Bret and Shawn, Brian would not hesitate like he did at the wedding. He won't act as a queen should, he would punch that bitch's lights out.

Everything for himself and Hunter has been going well but there was one problem. Brian wasn't conceiving. He didn't understand. He was a carrier and most male carriers were actually very fertile, on the contrary to popular belief, and they had never used a condom and Brian has never taken any type of contraceptive. Hunter said it would happen when God felt it was best and Brian agreed but he wanted to get checked out just in case something was wrong inside of him, and if it was, the quicker he gets it fixed the better. That's why Doctor Orton told him to come and see him today after breakfast.

Brian touched his stomach. He really hoped nothing was wrong with him. He really wanted to give Hunter a heir and a couple of spares not only did he want to but he needed to. There is an old law in the books that state if the queen doesn't get pregnant and/or have a baby within the first year of marriage, the cabinet can call for a divorce on grounds of infertility.

"You full baby?" Hunter asked Brian, noticing his hand on his stomach.

"Yeah." Brian says and drops his fork. "I am, that was a great breakfast." Brian wasn't really lying. He was kind of full.

"You hardly ate anything." Shawn commented.

"I did eat." Brian started. "You were to busy looking at Bret to notice."

"Don't…make me jump over this table." Shawn said and laughed. Brian laughed along with him. "Are you going to the doctor today?" Shawn asked.

"Yeah. Are you coming with me?" Brian asked.

"Sorry, Bret's taking me to meet his commanding officers and some other less important people…Hey!" Shawn yelled when Bret picked up his glass of orange juice and drunk it. Brian and Hunter chuckled.

"What? I was thirsty and you weren't drinking it." Bret answered and took another sip just to irritate Shawn.

Shawn rolled his eyes. "You know I eat first and drink after I'm done…and you could have just as someone to bring you some more juice." Shawn pointed out and Bret puts the glass down.

"I like your orange juice better baby." Bret winks and Shawn couldn't hide his smile.

"I like your orange juice better baby." Brian mimics Bret and Shawn throws his napkin at Brian as Brian burst into a fit of giggles. Hunter just shook his head at the two. They were so silly together.

"So what's on the agenda today for you Bret?" Hunter asked.

Bret went to answer but he couldn't because he started coughing. Bret held up one finger and coughed some more. He thought he would stop but it didn't.

Shawn put his hand on Bret's back and rubbed circles in his back. "Baby, are you OK? Did the juice go down the wrong pipe?"

Bret went to answer but he couldn't. He put one hand on his throat and the other over his mouth. He felt as if something was coming up, like he was about to vomit. Bret coughed again and something flew out of his mouth and onto his hand. Bret looked at his hand and his eyes widen. It was a black mucus and that was the last thing he saw before falling out of his chair and passing out.

"Bret!" Shawn screamed and went to his side, Hunter and Brian followed.

Shawn looked in his hand and saw the black stuff. He looked up and Hunter and Brian, they had seen it too. "We have to get him to Orton."

Hunter pushed Brian and Shawn out of the way and hoisted Bret on his shoulders and ran to the hospital wing. The couldn't wait for any servants or other workers and he could careless about how un-kingly this was. He needed to get Bret to the hospital and save his best friend. He only hoped he would get Bret there in enough time.
