“Lisha wake up.”

 

She heard Kurama's soft voice and started to stir awake. She sat up and found herself lying across a few of the hospital's waiting room chairs. She looked up and found Kurama standing over her, Mark lying in the chairs opposite her.

 

“Am I allowed to see her?” Lisha said, her voice soft. Kurama nodded. She quickly got up and ran down the hall to where her friend was. Softly, she opened the door and walked in. Lindsay lay in the bed staring at the ceiling. “Lindsay?”

 

Lindsay stopped staring at the wall and looked at Lisha. She went over to the bed and sat on the edge. “Lisha,” Lindsay said before throwing her face into Lisha's chest and started crying.

 

Lisha wrapped her arms around her friends back and rubbed up and down. “Shhh, I'm here for you Linds.” She whispered.

 

“Why? Why didn't I listen to you? Why did I have to go by myself?” she cried harder.

 

“I'd like to say that everything will be ok, but I'm not going to lie to you. I wish I had some magic fairy dust to make it all better, but I don't. I'd like to tell you it was a bad dream, but it wasn't, and the proof of that is now within your womb. It's a slight change in your aura, a lab test doesn't need to tell me that.”

 

Lindsay's arms tightened around Lisha. “Please, just lie to me.”

 

Lisha tried to smile. “Well, little fairies run around sprinkling fairy dust on everyone making everything better, everyone finds their soul mate the day that they don't think boys or girls are icky, and” she started with a sing-song voice. “If it was raining sugar plums and gum drops,”

 

Lindsay caught on and smiled. They finished together. “Oh what a rain it would be. Standing outside with my mouth open wide.” They stuck out their tongues. “Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.”

 

The two girls started giggling. This was the scene on which Mark and Kurama walked into the room: the two girls using each other for support while they laughed. Mark watched each of their auras fill with amusement and comfort. “I hadn't realized that this was so funny.” He said.

 

“Mark, I'm simply putting the smile back on her face.” Lisha said. She turned to Lindsay. “We have to go shopping later, you will need bigger clothes.”

 

“You're not going to wear you shopping robes are you?” Lindsay groaned.

 

“It wouldn't be a shopping spree without my robe. I'll make you one if you want.” Lisha saw the look of dislike on Lindsay's face and laughed. “I guess that's a no then.”

 

Lindsay looked over to Mark. Lisha saw the look in her eyes and pushed Kurama out of the room, closing the door behind her. There was a silence, before some more sobs were heard on the other side of the door. Lisha turned to Kurama and buried her face in his chest with the tears that she had been holding in for Lindsay's sake.

 

“I can never let her see me crying over this.” She mumbled. “I have to be there for her and give her strength.”

 

“Come on, I'll take you home.” Kurama said rubbing circles around her back. He picked her up and walked out of the hospital towards Genkai's temple.
