Eternal Gaiden 6: The First Child

Even though it was morning, Kyoya was sleeping soundly on the bed of his and Sala's room.

He then heard some vomiting sounds as he woke up and sat up. He then turned to the bathroom and saw that the door was opened and saw Sala inside as she was vomiting in the toilet.

"Sala!" Kyoya said in worry as he got off the bed and ran to his wife to check on her. "Are you okay?"

"Y-Yes, I am…don't worry…" Sala assured him as she stopped vomiting. "I don't know why but I've been feeling nauseous lately…"

"That sounds serious. Maybe we should have Dr. Gecko do a check on you." Kyoya advice.

"Yes...that's probably for the best." Sala said in agreement.

They called Dr. Gecko and they were now in the medical room together with the doctor as she did her check up for Sala, and found the reason for her nausea.

"It would appear that you're pregnant princess." Dr. Gecko told her and Kyoya

"Huh?" Kyoya and Sala blink to hear that.

"Umm...care to repeat that please." Kyoya requested.

"I said, Salamandinay-sama, is pregnant with your child. Congratulations to the both of you, you're going to be parents." Dr. Gecko told them.

As they finally begin to process this, both Kyoya and Sala turn to each other as they smile and gently place their hands on her womb.

Shortly after learning she was pregnant, Sala had called the citizens of the town to gather at the Tower of Aura.

As the townspeople were wondering why the princess had called for them, Sala soon arrived as she walked on top of the wooden stage.

"Hello, everyone, I know this was sudden but I thank you for coming. I have important news to share with you…" Sala said before she breathed in and out and showed them a proud smile. "I am...pregnant with my husband's child."

Hearing that stunned them to silence before they slowly begin to smile and cheer loudly to congratulate her.

"Oh my! Congratulations princess!"

"And it's with Kyoya-sama!"

"I'm happy for you both...but I'm so jealous!"

As the people were cheering to congratulate Sala for her pregnancy, Kyoya, Hayate, Vivian, Ersha, Kaname, Naga, and Lizardia were watching from behind the stage as they stood next to the Tower.

"Man Sala...I mean I'm happy too, but there's no reason to be dramatic about it." Kyoya said as he felt a little embarrassed about this.

"Oh come on, Kyoya, don't be like that." Hayate said as he patted on his shoulder. "This is a big day for the both of you. So enjoy the moment."

"I agree...but I hope you will make a note of this…" Kaname mutters quietly.

"Hmm...Kaname, did you say something?" Hayate asked.

"Oh it's nothing!" Kaname said as she waved her hands, and Hayate blinked in confusion.

"But how about that? You're going to be a dad. Guess I should start calling you old time for now on." Vivian said as she rubs her elbow on Kyoya's side.

"You better not! I'm still only 20 years old!" Kyoya exclaimed.

"Exactly my point." Vivian said as she sticks her tongue at him before Ersha chops her on the head.

"Now, now, Vivi-chan. That was still rude, you should know better than that." Ersha scolded her.

"Alright...I'm sorry…" Vivian mutters as she rubs her head.

"But still you should really enjoy the moment." Ersha told him.

"Yes, I agree. This sort of union is a first for us." Naga told him before she turned away and mumbled quietly. "Even if it's with you…"

"Oh Naga…" Lizardia said before she placed her hand on his shoulder. "But they're right. You should enjoy the moment while it lasts."

"Yeah, yeah, I know…" Kyoya mutters as he rubs the back of his head.

Kyoya then turns back to his wife as she was waving to the still cheering people as he smiles at her.

(Later)

It was now night time, Kyoya and Sala were in their room as they were ready for bed but Kyoya was too busy checking on his wife instead of getting some sleep.

"Are you sure that you're alright? You don't feel any changes or motion sickness of any kind?" Kyoya asked in worry as he and Sala were seated on the bed.

"Kyoya, just calm down." Sala told him as she gently placed her hand on her womb. "Our child won't be here for months. So there's no reason to stress about it."

"I know, but even so...plus I'm even more worried if I'll be a good father." Kyoya said.

"What do you mean by that?" Sala asked.

"Well…" Kyoya mutters as he rubs the side of his head. "You know, that I don't remember my dad after he died when I was really young. My mom raised me, all on her own, so I don't know how it feels to have a father."

"Kyoya…" Sala said before she leans her head on his shoulder. "There's no reason to worry about that. Well you may have never experienced the warmth of a father, you were still raised by a loving and caring parent. It was thanks for that, you became the kind and noble soul that you are today. So I just know that you'll be a good father."

"Sala…" Kyoya said as he wasn't sure how to feel about that.

"Though…" Sala said as she averted eye contact. "Truthfully, this will be a first time for me as well. So I'm also a little worried."

Kyoya blinks before he chuckles which makes Sala to set her eyes back on him.

"And you told me not to worry." Kyoya said as he chuckles which made Sala pout before he placed his hand on her shoulder. "But thanks for that. But don't worry, you know I'll always be by your side. So we'll just have to learn by each step, together."

Sala smiles.

"Right." Sala nodded before they placed their foreheads against each other, and placed their hands on her womb.

There you have it, I hope that you like it. Please review to tell me what you think.

Also special thanks to bloodyredrose for the idea for this Gaiden.
