Situation

Chapter 15: Dancing and Dumb Diets

Except for the three times we ate, Kanda and I pretty much slept around all day. It made me really happy that he was okay with it, too. I mean, he obviously enjoyed it as much as I did, but he didn't even ask me why I wanted to be with him like that all day. He kept his promise.

My eyes flicker open, the dawn light bathing the small room. I was facing the bathroom and Kanda's back was to mine. Pushing up onto my elbows, I look at my boyfriend. He was still asleep, his breathing even and his heartbeat steady. It was eight, and usually he was awake by now, but I guess I wore him out yesterday.

It hit me hard then, sending me bolting into the bathroom. Everything I had eaten in the last day pushed itself up out of my stomach as I leaned over the toilet. I hate vomiting more than anything. Heck, I'd rather have the cramps right now. Once I was done hurling, I brush my teeth until the noxious taste had left my mouth, and take a pill. I'm guessing these were vitamins of some sort since they were smaller.

By the time I returned to the bed, Kanda was sitting up and waiting for me to come back. I sit next to him and pull the blankets over my lower half. He asks, "Why so modest, Kitten? You weren't trying to cover anything yesterday."

I blush, ignoring what he said, "I'm going to the library with Lenalee at noon."

"Okay," he says, laying a hand on my chest and slowly pushing me down. He holds my hands above my head with one of his, and uses the other to hold his weight over me. His rough lips bruise mine before he moves down my jaw. I gasp as he bites down hard on my neck, and I know his teeth marks will be impossible to cover with my turtleneck. I mutter, "Ng…I'm going to…have to explain those…"

His lips turn up, "Exactly, and now everyone will know what you were doing all day yesterday."

I growl, but am cut off as he continues down my chest and nips a pink bud. I moan in pleasure, writhing under him. Of course, while I was mewling he pulled away. A whine escapes my parted lips, and Kanda smirks at me. As soon as he moved his hand restraining me, I flip us over.

I straddled him and while he threw his head back from the pressure, I took advantage of his exposed neck, biting down in the same fashion he did me. He groans, "Dang you…"

I lick the spot before replying, "Guess you'll be explaining, too."

Satisfied, I sit beside him. He glowers at me, "Didn't anyone tell you that the uke doesn't mark the seme?"

I shake my head, "No, but I don't care anyways. Who said I can't be your seme?"

A glint appears in his dark eyes, "Is that a challenge?"

I nod before attacking his chest. He wasn't happy at all an hour later, but I was absolutely overjoyed. I stick my tongue out at him, "Hmph, told ya I could be seme."

He doesn't reply, but instead rolls over. I get on my knees and put my hands on his waist, looking down at him, "No, you're facing it now."

He growls, "I let you be seme. If I had been trying then you wouldn't have been."

I roll my eyes, "Liar, liar, hair on fire."

"What?" he gives me an odd look as he flops onto his back. I blush, "Well, pants on fire didn't seem appropriate."

"Right, I can always fix that," he says, glancing at his jeans draped over the footboard. "No!" I clap my hands over my mouth as soon as I said it, my face probably the deepest crimson it's ever been.

He smirks, "Oh really? I knew you weren't as innocent as you seem."

"You should have figured that out when I bought the lollipops," I mutter.

oO_Oo_oO_Oo

Lenalee laughed as we walked to the library, "He said 'he let you be seme'?! That cracks me up!"

I was trying my best not to laugh because the cramps had returned, but I had to let it out every now and then. I say, "Yeah, it was funny for me, too. Back on topic though, what exactly are we looking for as far as books?"

She turned serious again as we pushed open the library doors, "Well, you aren't going to have a normal pregnancy, but we need to have an idea on some of these things. Komui doesn't even know when to give you your first ultrasound."

Lenalee and I turn into the aisle with child care and such in it, and search until we find baby books. I felt weird looking through the books, but I'm guessing most people assume Lenalee is pregnant and that I'm the father. I shudder at the thought. I whisper to the girl, "I never thought I'd be sixteen and pregnant."

She tried to hold it back, but she broke out giggling. Shamefully, she says, "I'm sorry for laughing."

I shake my head, "Don't be. I'd be laughing too, but it'd hurt to."

She smiles and pulls out a book called "The Guide to Your First Baby". Lenalee begins to carry it to a table, gesturing for me to follow. We sit side by side, the book between us on the tabletop. I open it, reading the introduction.

I imagine if you picked up this book, you're pregnant with your first baby. Well, congratulations! I hope motherhood is a great experience, and I wish to help in any way I can. This book will take you through all the things that happen in the nine months before the baby's birth, and everything in between. So come with me in a journey of a lifetime.

I was already certain this was the perfect book. Before I could say anything, Lenalee stated, "This is the book we need. Do you want to come to my room and read it together? I figure you don't want Kanda finding out."

I nod, "We've gone through a lot, and if it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't be here, but he won't want to raise a baby with a freak of nature."

"He'll still love you regardless of whether you're pregnant or not," she comforted, but I wasn't convinced in the least. I say, "Okay, let's go check out."

I vomit for the second time that day in a trashcan as we walk back to the Order.This means that I'm famished once we get back, and have to go by the cafeteria. Lenalee insists she orders for me, and so I go and sit. I was very happy when she got back with about fifteen plates. My joy is short-lived because it's mostly vegetables, fruits, and a house salad.

I was too hungry to care as I stuff myself, but I still glare at the pig-tailed girl. She says, "Remember, you have to start eating healthy because of the baby. The reason you vomit half the time is from eating things she doesn't like."

I raise an eyebrow, "She?"

Lenalee rolls her eyes, "Well, I personally hope it's a girl. I need another female here to talk to. Miranda is too depressed to talk to anyone, and Klaud is a general, so that's kind of weird."

I smile, "I think it is a girl. I don't know why, but it's like a gut feeling."

"What would you name her if it's a girl?" she asks. I think about it, but eventually say, "The middle name I would want to be Mana since it's a girl's name, too, but I don't know about a first name."

I finish eating a few minutes later, and in about ten minutes, I'm getting my first look of Lenalee's room. I gape at the palace-like bedroom. It was at least two times bigger than Kanda and my room. The right wall had a king size bed in the corner and the far wall had a balcony like my room. The left wall had a gigantic dresser with a mirror attached, and a jewelry cabinet built into the wall next to it. The bathroom was next and it was the same as Kanda and I's. Last was the walk-in closet and rods with a gazillion ball gowns inside.

Lenalee sits on the bed, blushing, "Komui wanted me to have the most elegant room in the Order."

I nod, still awestruck by the bedroom of the century. I take a seat beside her, opening the baby book. After an hour of reading, Lenalee has a long list of things I can eat, and tells me I need to give it to Jerry. Another hour of reading and we decide I needed to get my first ultrasound in two weeks. I'd be two months along then, and since we had no idea what was going to happen between now and the birth, we didn't want to take a chance.

By the time we got to the end of the second chapter, it was four o'clock. I was hungry again, and we decided to grab our boyfriends and bring them to eat.

Before we parted ways, I ask, "What if we go out dancing?"

She looked uncertain, "Are you sure you should?"

I nod, "It's the last time I'll be able to for a while."

"Okay, then how about we meet now, and then leave about eightish?"

I begin to walk back to my room, "Sounds good." When I get back to my room, Kanda was in the bathroom. I assume the shower since it seemed humid in the room. He left the bathroom door wide open, and I snuck in, peeking around the corner just as the water cut off.

I watch him step out of the shower and dry off, running his fingers through his hair. I jump when he says, "You don't have to hide, Kitten."

I say, "How do you always know I'm here?"

He smirks as he turns around, and pulls on his clothes, "You breathe really heavily. Marie would be able to hear your heartbeat."

I blush and change the subject, "You and I are meeting Lenalee and Lavi to eat, and later we're going out dancing."

"When do I ever get a say in these things?" he asks, fully clothed and walking past me into the bedroom. I follow closely, "When you start putting in the effort. Will you please go?"

He sighs, "Yes, I'll go."

I smile and throw my arms around his neck, giving him a kiss. He then leads me to the cafeteria.

oO_Oo_oO_Oo

In a few hours, the four of us are on our way to "Glimmer's Bar". Lenalee and I have fake I.D.'s so we can get in. Lavi and Kanda are nineteen and they don't need one. It doesn't take long for us to get in, and Lavi went to get drinks for us as Kanda, Lenalee, and I sit on a couch in the back. Most people were dancing, and I personally wished Kanda would ask me to, but I know it's very unrealistic.

Lavi comes back, handing us our drinks, and sits beside Lenalee. I think I was tricked somehow because Kanda was between me and Lenalee, and I glance at her nervously as she leans in to Kanda's ear. She must have whispered something because as soon as she pulled back, the bluenette shook his head.

Lenalee rolled her eyes, and did the same to Lavi. The rabbit smiled evilly and nodded, looking at me. What was I missing here?! The pig-tailed girl moved over to me and grabbed my hand, pulling me towards the dance floor just as the song ended and switched to "Wanted" by Hunter Hayes.

I glanced at her tensely as she put her arms over my shoulders. She rested her chin on her right arm and whispered, "Put your arms around my waist."

I obey, clasping my hands behind her back as we stepped from side to side. "Good. Kanda refused to ask you to dance, so I'm going to see how far we have to go before he snaps. Right now he's death glaring me."

I smile, "Really? He's that jealous?"

"Uh-huh. Lavi said he was fine with it, but he's going to hate me after this. Stay still." I wasn't sure what she was talking about until I feel her lips on my neck. It was barely a brush, but I know it pushed Kanda too far. She steps away from me just as I'm snagged by strong arms.

My boyfriend's arms snake their way around my waist, and mine go around his neck. He growls in my ear, "If Lenalee was a guy, she'd be dead. Don't do that."

I smile, "What? Were you jealous?"

"No," he replies quickly, and I know he was. I whisper, "You're the one who wouldn't dance with me."

He grunts, but says nothing more. The song ends soon after that and Kanda and I sit again. Lenalee and the rabbit were still dancing, and I cuddled next to the bluenette as we sat. He says, "I'm never letting you drag me out with her ever again."

I whine, "Yeah, and nothing would happen all night if she wasn't here. You never take the first step, and she's the one making up for it. When's the last time you did something without a push? The only time I remember was when you held my hand at Red Lobster."

He thinks about it for a second before saying, "I've never had a boyfriend before, and it's not like I want to advertise it."

His confession surprised me since I had thought he had dated another guy, but I guess not. I sit back on my knees and look at him, "It's no different than being with a girl." Yeah, tell me about it. I'm not much better off than a girl.

He gazes back at me, uncertainty in his eyes, "Maybe to you."

I give him the best puppy eyes I can, "So? Can't you at least try?"

He sighs and nods. I give him a kiss on the cheek, and nuzzle up to him just as Lavi and Lenalee sit down. She winks at me and I return it.

The rest of the night went by slow considering Kanda only danced with me once more and the rest of the time was spent on the couch. I didn't mind too much since Lenalee and the rabbit only danced one more time than us.

I was happy that the cramps seemed to have stop and when I did get them, they short and far between.

oO_Oo_oO_Oo

I'm starving by the time we get back to the Order, and after eating a "light" fourth meal, I walk into Kanda and my room. Once the door was shut, I tug off my shirt and walk into the bathroom. I take a pill and drink a little before sitting on the bed beside Kanda. Pulling the blankets over us, I settle on my side, looking at him. He was on his back, and seemed to be thinking.

I poke his arm, "Hello?" The bluenette glances at me, "Hi."

"What are you thinking about?" I ask. He reaches under his pillow and pulls out a black necklace cord. Attached to the cord is a tan swirled stone charm shaped into a heart. I recognize the stone immediately, "Agate."

He gazes at me, "You know what it is?"

I nod, "Mana used to teach me about different stones and gems and what they mean. Agate is a protection stone, and from nightmares in particular. It also shows love."

"Right you are. This is your early birthday present," he says as he hands the necklace to me. I smile and hook it around my neck. It wasn't super loose and was snug enough to make it wearable in the night. It was so thoughtful and loving for him to go to the trouble to find it for me. I glance down at my stomach, You hear that? Your daddy is considerate of my nightmares and got a stone to protect us.

I know that she can't hear me, but I still feel like she could. A tear slips down my cheek as I wrap my arms around Kanda, and he asks, "Does that mean you like it?"

I nod, "Yes, I love it. Thank you."

He gives me a kiss on my forehead, and lays us down so I'm in his arms and my face in his chest. I love you. I love both of you….

Author Note: Aw, Kanda's so sweet! I know everyone's going to like his other present. The next update should be here tomorrow.
