New Host

Chapter 11: Hello Sunshine

Tea sat at the kitchen table smiling down as she looked hard into the wood designs. So many things needed doing, so many things needed done. She didn't care. She closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side. Nothing could destroy this mood she was in. She didn't know why she was this way, she didn't care either. She was so happy a lot lately. Wait, yes she did know why she was so happy. She put a hand on her belly and smiled down at it her eyes open again. She was expecting. She let out a small laugh and let the butterflies in her stomach multiply by the moment. Her hands where shaking a bit and she felt dizzy. She found this out this morning. She had simply thought nothing of missing her period two weeks ago, but this morning she took `the test' as her mother always called it. It was positive, she was pregnant. The only thing to do now was tell the father. That would be difficult. So many things flashed through her mind at that thought. He never spoke of wanting children, never talked about her getting pregnant, never. So what if he left her? What if he shunned her, or worse, their child? She shuttered at the thought. Sighing deeply she looked to the clock above the stove. It was only seven in the morning. He would sleep a few more hours. She had more time to plan, more time to think.

What would her parents say? Oh lord, they didn't even know the guy! She swallowed a bit of bile rising in her throat. Would they abandon her? Like their other child? Tea's arms where shaking badly now. There were so many things that could go wrong, and yet, a hand rested again on her belly, so many things to go right. What if it was a girl? What if it was a boy? Twins even. She didn't know what to think. `I want pie that is what I think.'

She scooted her chair back and got up walking to the fridge and opened it up searching. “AH!” she exclaimed finding the pie near the back. She lifted the plastic cover and looked at it then smelled it. Her nose wrinkled and she sighed. “Smells nasty,” yet she got a fork and began to dig into the old apple pie. As she sat there chewing on some pie she let more thoughts fill her head. What about collage? Could she still go? Would Bakura let her now with the child, she new she wouldn't leave him, of all people, alone with a child, even if it was his. She put the fork down and then to the empty pie pan. It was gone already? But it was half full only moments ago. She looked back at the clock. Seven-thirty? Time flies when you freak out. She sat up and threw her pie pan away and put the fork in the sink to clean later. She slowly made her way to the stairs and began to clime. What room could be the babies? Maybe hers? Maybe not.

She opened the door into her bathroom and walked in, shutting the door silently behind her. She looked into the mirror and smiled at herself. “A mom,” she mumbled, “I'm going to be a mommy.” She poked her flat belly. “You hear that little one? I'm your mommy.” She felt a few tears form in the corner of her eyes and let the bubbling excitement take over. She walked over to the tub and watched as a tear landed on the bottom and simply sat there watching her. She reached over to the knobs and put the stopper in the hole. As the tub filled she sat on the toilet seat and thought some more. She would need to shop some and get baby things and maternity things. Oh, Mai would have a fit, so would Serenity. She smiled. A shopping day was in order in a month. Resting her head on her fist she stared contently at the yellow wallpaper. How would she break the news? Of course Bakura had to be the first to know but how? Simply right out? Or what? She sighed deeper then before and rested her forehead on the fist.

She jumped up as water splashed out of the tub and hit her bare foot. She quickly turned off the water and let out a sigh of relief. She sighed a lot more now. Looking at the filled tub she realized something. She didn't care. Smiling she opened the door to the hall and left it open before plopping down in the tub with her nightgown on.

Conimo was sitting contently on the shower head looking down at her. As she noticed him she smiled sweetly and reached her hand up delicately. The snake made no move at first but eventually he moved down and wrapped himself around her arm before resting into the normal position on her upper arm and turning into his unmovable copper piece of jewelry. Tea said nothing else as she let the warm water burn her skin. Ryou? He had stopped by a good two days ago to see how the two where doing. And for once, Bakura was…nice. She sighed. He had changed too. Both of them. Ryou was, stronger? Bakura was, nicer? No, he was mellow. Something like that. She let her head go under for a moment before coming out gasping for air then putting her hands on her head and pushing the hair back. It was long again. Down to her back. She leaned forward and pulled the stopper out then got up and let the water run down her skin and clothing.

She got out and walked out of the bathroom and into the halls. Her hand traced the wall as she walked to “the room”. That is the name of the room that they, well, slept in. She didn't find it good anymore to call it her parents; it was a bit gross and not true. They where gone. She smiled though. But if they where still here, none of this would have happened: Bakura, the dance school, this child. The dance school was amazing. For the past few months it had been open and the people where pouring in. If it had the Kaiba Corp. logo on it a lot of people came.

She thanked the gods for all that. As she walked down the hall her feet made a soggy squishing noise. Her feet stopped before the room, and as she looked in she found Bakura to still be sleeping. She smiled as she walked over to his side and looked down at him. He had become more modern. Or, he slept while people did things around him, instead of jumping to action as he used to. Well, if there was danger or something he still did. She put her finder on his forehead and poked him a few times and watched as his eyes opened slowly and he looked up at her a moment before he yawned a bit and looked around.

“Early.” He mumbled as he got up. He looked over at her from the bedside and got and angry scowl. “Are you stupid? Your going to get sick if you don't dress warmer, is it raining outside or something?”

“Nope, I just took a bath and didn't feel like taking my clothing off.” She said with a smile. He looked at her for a moment before sighing deeply.

“Your crazy.”

“Says the ex-thief who risked his life oh so many times doin-“ His hand was on her mouth.

“I'm hungry stop talking.” He mumbled. He never really was a morning person. Tea simply smiled and clasped her hands behind her back as she followed him out of the room and to the kitchen. He stopped at the bottom of the stairs of looked back up at her. “Really Tea, I don't want you to get sick.” Tea smiled and felt the tears form again, which caused him to freak out. “What!” He looked around him before shrugging and walking to her step and pulling her to him. “You bring out the best in me.” He mumbled into her hair with spite.

“And you bring out the worst in me.” She said with a sniff. “I'll go get dressed.” She pushed away and slowly walked up the stairs and into her room to find clothing.

Tea didn't want to dress up. So she simply wore two things, the longest shirt she had and sweatpants. She looked like crap, and she was proud. Bakura on the other hand was his normal self, and ass, and made a rude comment as she came down. “You look like a mule kicked you when you where playing in mud.” She simply waved it off and plopped down on the couch and stared at the wall. “Why is your hand on your stomach? Are you hungry?” She hadn't even realized it was there. She smiled.

“No.” And she continued to look at the wall. Bakura's face became concerned.

“Tea?”

“Hmm?”

“Are you ok?”

“Yes”

“You seem a bit…”

“Yeah I know.”

“Tell me,” he mumbled sitting next to her.

“Can't you tell?”

“Tell what?” He was growing annoyed.

“Tell what is `wrong'?” She felt herself begin to cry.

“PMS?” he asked.

She simply laughed.

“Your mother and father are dead.”

She snorted.

“Tea.” She looked at him. With a deep sigh he continued. “Tell me.” Conimo had now slithered off her arm and rested peacefully on the arm of the couch sleeping. She put her hand on his arm and smiled.

“Not now, but eventually.” She let go then reached for the remote on the coffee table and turned on the TV. Bakura say quietly watching her for a moment trying to understand. He had learned not to push her unless he had to, and she seemed as if eventually tell him so he found nothing wrong with this. So, he sat with her and watched the television.

“Your pregnant!” Serenity nearly screamed. Tea put a finger to her lips and smiled, nodding her head. “Does Bakura know?” She had no doubt that he was the father.

“No.”

“Who all knows?”

“You, me, and my toilet.”

“How long?”

“I found out almost a month ago…” Tea said sheepishly.

“You can't hide it for long Tea; he is going to have to find out somehow. Then what about your mother and father, aren't they coming down for Christmas? It is only three weeks away!” Tea swallowed a lump in her throat. Oh yes, that was true.

“I can make it all work.” She said, and she believed it too. Serenity sighed and sipped some coffee before pushing herself back from the table and stood.

“I have to go; I and Yami have a date in an hour. So I have to head out now. If you need anything call ok, my phone is on.” With that she put her small purse on her arm and walked away with a good-bye wave to Tea.

Tea sat there a moment and bit her bottom lip. `I can't tell him that easily can I?' she suddenly lost all hope. How to tell a man that she wasn't married to that could leave her at any moment that she was pregnant. That was going to be a challenge.

Maybe it was time to call someone else in on this…someone who knew what to do about this.

It was time to call Mai.

To Be continued

Sorry it was so short, but I had to get something out so you all know this story will continue on! And about Mai…you shall all see soon. I haven't exactly watched the show in a year and so no other characters will come in soon.

Thanks for all kind reviews and love from you all. It makes me think on writing, and many on actually doing it. (Gets more ideas for next chapter)
