School Days

By: Takerus Lost Angel

 

Hikari's once petite figure began to expand exponentially. Her stomach began to stick out quite noticeably and her ankles seemed to be the size of hippos. The once slim teacher used to strut confidently through the hallways, but now seemed to have developed a well defined waddle. “I'm fat!” The young brunette mumbled as she fidgeted with her classroom lock.

 

Two months had passed since the practice exams and the class seemed to be running as smoothly as any classroom could. Actually that was a lie Akiyuki once again became suspended and it seemed trouble followed him where ever he went. She had decided that today was the day that she was going to confront the teen and see what the problem was.

 

“I wanted to congratulate you on the success of your class.”

 

Hikari jumped at the voice behind her; low and behold the great Wataru was standing right before him with a grin on his face. Wait a second, a grin? Yes, if you can believe it he was wearing a grin, and it did not suit him one bit.

 

Hikari looked at the man skeptically as she turned the door knob. “It is not like you to congratulate someone.” She spat.

 

Wataru placed a hand on the teachers back and ushered into her room. “Oh come now, I know we've had our differences, but I know you're good. You are one of the best teachers that I've got.” Wataru buttered up.

 

“You fired me.” She spoke icily.

 

“Oh that.” He said nonchalantly. “I was having a bad day. I didn't mean it really!” He laughed whole heartedly.

 

Hikari eyed the man skeptically. “What do you want?”

 

“I'm offering you a full time job.”

 

Hikari laughed uncontrollably. Never in her entire life did she expect to hear those words uttered out of his mouth. Little did that fat man know that the young brunette had already contacted a school on the other side of town that was looking for a kindergarten teacher, not to mention she was pregnant and would not be able to work until after maternity leave.

 

She looked at the man and grinned wickedly. “No.”

 

“What do you mean no?” Wataru snapped, beginning to lose his patience.

 

“For starters, I'm pregnant if you had not noticed!” She snorted, while pointing at her noticeable bump. “And secondly, I would never work for you, for as long as you are principal!” Hikari swung the classroom door open and jerked her thumb towards the door. “If were done, you can leave.”

 

The principal scowled before marching out of the classroom. Hikari shook her head. “Men…” She mumbled before shutting the door.

 

The warning bell rang signaling the start of class. The classroom started to bustle with excitement as school would be ending in a month's time. This week would be the last week before the final exams; the exams would be the following week. The week after that would be the week you applied to the high school of your choice, and the week after you would receive the grades from your exams and the acceptance to the high school you applied to.

 

The days drew on slowly as nothing exciting seemed to happen. Usually a heated argument or debate would emerge, yet nothing. Hikari strummed her fingers across her desk repeatedly. She was bored, the class was doing their work and she had already finished the lesson. “Anyone need any help?”

 

Everyone's head looked up from their notebooks and looked quizzically at their teacher. “Takashi-sensei, you're joking right?” Meitetsu chirped. “You've been drilling these lessons in our heads since the start of term; I think that if we don't know the material now, we never will.”

 

Hikari sighed; this was going to be a long day.

 

The day dredged on. Hikari learned that there were exactly forty-eight ceiling tiles and six light fixtures. The baseboard heater was cracked, and she had three pieces of chalk left. The once bright decorated walls were bare, as she began to pack the classroom up for the summer. She glanced at the clock; the bell would be ringing any moment.

 

She cleared her throat, gaining attention from the class. “Tonight, you have no homework.”

 

Akiyuki looked at the teacher strangely. “What?” He blurted out, forgetting proper classroom etiquette.

 

Hikari rolled her eyes. “I said: you do not have homework.” The class erupted into cheers as the filed out of the classroom. Hikari tried to get her classes attention, but failed miserably as they ushered out of the class at the signal of the ending bell. Hikari groaned the one student she wanted to talk to was out of sight before the rest.

 

----*----*----*----*----*----*----

 

Hikari unlocked her apartment door. “Takeru, I am home!” She kicked her shoes off at the door, and waddled through the apartment. She sniffed the air and wrinkled her nose. The apartment stunk. She walked towards the kitchen and looked around the room; it was spotless; so it wasn't the kitchen. “Takeru do you smell that?”

 

Her blonde headed husband walked out of the office. “I'm painting.” He chirped holding a paintbrush in hand and covered in paint from head to toe.

 

She looked at him quizzically. “Painting what?”

 

“The office.” He stated simply. “I wanted it to be a surprise.”

 

Hikari walked past her husband towards the obvious. She broke into a huge smile the room was painted a pale shade of green. The once cluttered office was cleared of Takeru's books, papers, and desk. The room was replaced with tiny white dresser, crib, changing table, and rocking chair. She looked at her husband lovingly, before jumping into his arms.

 

“You did this all by yourself?”

 

Takeru snorted. “I made Yamato and your brother help.”

 

She chuckled lightly. “I thought we agreed that we were going to use the spare bedroom for the nursery?”

 

Takeru smiled. “I know, but the office is so much bigger, plus if anyone comes to visit we still have a room for people to sleep in.”

 

Hikari hugged her husband enjoying the innocence of him. “I love you.” She whispered sweetly.

 

He kissed the top of her head. “I know.” She hit him playfully.

 

The phone rang breaking the comfortable silence. Hikari walked to the kitchen and picked up the phone. “Moshi moshi! Oh really…are you serious…uh-huh…is she ok…that's good…were on our way.” Hikari hung up the phone and turned towards her dumbfounded husband. “We have to go!”

 

“Why?” He asked annoyed.

 

“Mimi's in labor!”

 

The two soon to be parents rushed out of their apartment and high tailed it to the hospital. They arrived at the packed waiting room to be greeted with fellow digidestines. Takeru was the first to speak when arriving at the crammed waiting room. “Has anyone contacted the digimon?”

 

“Already on that Takeru.” Koushiro chirped while typing away on his keyboard.

 

Ken got up from his seat beside his very large and annoyed looking wife, for Hikari. Ken moved towards the other side of the room where the majority of the male digidestines lurked.

 

“I can not believe Mimi went into labor before you Miyako.” Hikari whispered to her best female friend, before gaining a groan from her.

 

“Great, look what you just had to start Hikari!” Ken snapped, while rubbing his head.

“I'm two weeks overdue and I'm in the most uncomfortable position and in waltzes Mimi in labour.” She twisted in her seat in attempt to get in a more comfortable position.

 

“Chill out Miyako, stop whining! It's only pregnancy.” Daisuke snorted, receiving eye rolling from all the digidestined.”

 

“Chill out? You are telling me to CHILL OUT? Let me see you carry a nine pound baby in your stomach. Then have the luxury of passing a watermelon through a key hole. When you have done all that then you can tell me to CHILL OUT!” The lavender hair woman shrieked as she rubbed her abdomen tiredly.

 

Time ticked slowly as patients were wheeled in and out of the delivery room and yet no sign of Yamato to tell them the good news. Taichi, Cody, Sora and Daisuke started a game of go fish, where as Ken and Miyako had to leave to put the baby to bed, Takeru continued to pace back and forth waiting to hear from his brother, Jyou was trying to get information from the doctors, and Koushiro was nominated for the coffee run.

 

Hikari yawned for the two hundredth time that night. She looked at the clock on the wall; it was already rounding one in the morning. She was marking some of the kid's assignments. She made Taichi go and get them a couple hours ago, only after some begging. She looked at her watch again, still no news from Yamato. Hikari stood up and stretched her legs; she tiptoed around some of the sprawled bodies that littered the floor. Actually body, Daisuke passed out from boredom about two hours ago. She wandered down the maternity ward toward the viewing window.

 

There were several tiny beds lined up facing the window. Each had its own little name plate and blanket. She sighed contently and rubbed her belly. “Promise me that when you decide to make an appearance not to take as long as your little cousin is taking. Also promise me you will not put me in the same pain that your Aunt Miyako is in. And finally, promise me that you will be happy and healthy.”

 

She felt a hand rest on her shoulder; she looked up to be greeted with similar looking brown eyes. “It's amazing you know? Who would have thought that both you and I would be starting parenthood at the same time?” He paused for a moment thinking of what he was going to say next. “I still think of you as that four-year old who wanted to play soccer with me all the time, yet your not. You've grown up. You know, I was so mad when you started dating him. I was furious that my little sister was growing up and didn't need me to protect her anymore.”

 

“Taiiiii….” She said sadly looking at her feet.

 

The older sibling continued. “I realized that I was being stupid. You had a new glow to you, you were happy, you were in love. It's the same glow you have right now. You are going to be a great mom Hikari, I'm so proud of you.” He gave her a tight squeeze. “It's still hard to believe that you are having a baby.” He said in awe, he turned towards the window that she was looking at.

 

“Thank-you Tai and you are not going to be too bad as a dad either.” She smirked. “Let's just hope he takes after Sora.” She said teasingly, while pulling him back to the waiting area.

 

Taichi subconsciously touched his brown bushy hair. “Low blow, Hikari.”

 

The two arrived back at the waiting room moments before Yamato rushed into the room.

 

“Well what is it?” The entire group yelled, causing the soon to be astronaut jump a few feet back.

 

He smiled happily, causing tears to come to his eyes. “It's a girl.”

 

The girls cooed in delight, as the guys high fived the proud father. “Can we see her?” Sora chirped, getting all teary eyed.

 

Yamato nodded, the remaining digidestine followed him to the small recovery room. The eight friends crammed around the small bed to be greeted by an exhausted Mimi holding the tiny baby girl.

 

“She definitely has the famous Takashi-Ishida trademark blonde hair.” Takeru smirked.

 

“And she has Mimi's amber coloured eyes.” Sora chimed.

 

“She's really yours right Ishida?” Dasiuke smirked, getting a swat from Taichi.

 

Yamato shot daggers. “Of course she's mine!” He turned towards Mimi. “She is mine right?”

 

Mimi smacked her soon to be husband. “Of course she is!” She snapped, not finding the joke amusing.

 

“She's going to be a heartbreaker, Ishida. You better keep her away from the boys.” Taichi joked.

 

Yamato furrowed her brow. “Why does she automatically become a heartbreaker?”

 

Mimi was the one who answered that. “For starters she's got my beauty, charm, and grace. It also doesn't hurt that her father was the former teenage heart throb.” The group erupted into laughter.

 

Hikari broke the tranquil air. “So, what is her name?”

 

Yamato looked at Mimi, Mimi looked at Yamato. “Her name is Ishida Hanaka.” The large group of friends congratulated and praised the new parents on their new addition.

 

Hikari yawned tiredly. “Sorry, to break up the party; but I have to teach tomorrow.” She waved farewell and literally dragged her husband out of the maternity ward.

 

He wrapped his arm around his wife's shoulders. “Hika, I can not wait for the day that we have our own little addition to our family.”

 

“Neither can I Takeru, neither can I.”
