Lisha made her way up the stairs to the shrine, slowing down with each step. She reached the top and collapsed. She lay there staring at the stars with a big smile on her face. That was until a pair of big blue eyes popped up in front of her. “Whatca' doin' laying there?” Azriel asked.

 

Lisha's head flew up, whacking their foreheads in the process. “Azzie, you know not to scare me like that!” She wined holding her head.

 

The impact had knocked Azriel to her butt, she also held her head. “I didn't think that it would scare you, and stop calling me Azzie.”

 

“No, now I've got a massive headache, and possibly brain damage, so I'm gonna annoy you a bit.” She stood up and tried to walk to the temple, each step staggering from the pain in her head. Right before the door, she turned around. “Enjoy what little `sleep' you'll get with Hiei tonight Azzie, may I recommend getting a soundproofed room? You're quite loud in the forest, I'm surprised someone hasn't called the police.”

 

Azriel stood up and started to growl. Sensing the impending danger, Lisha yanked the door open, ran in, and slammed it shut behind her. Azriel ran after her, not bothering to close the door behind her. Lisha ran down the hall screaming and giggling until she reached the main room where Kurama, Hiei and Yukina were sitting. She jumped onto the couch, grabbed Kurama's shoulders and put him in front of her. “Save me from the crazy lady `Rama.” She cried.

 

“Lisha! Get back here so I can slaughter you!” Azriel growled as she ran into the room. “Hiding behind our mate are we? He won't be able to protect you forever.”

 

“Lisha, what did you do?” Yukina said, holding in a giggle.

 

“I just asked her to get a soundproofed room in Genkai's house, is that so wrong?” Lisha said innocently.

 

“Maybe you should take the same advice Lish.”

 

“What d'you mean Yuki?” Lisha cocked her head to the side.

 

“You didn't close the door all the way last night, we could all hear what was going on in Kurama's room.”

 

Lisha's face turned beat red. “Well, it was my first time, mistakes will be made, and in nine months, I'll remember to close the door all the way.” She looked down to Kurama. “I know that I'm pregnant `Rama, I can sense the change and Mark saw the change in my aura. I also overheard your conversation with Yuki this morning.” She leaned foreword against his back and gave him a hug from behind. “Mark even did the clear my mind thing for me so I could figure out my feelings on the matter.”

 

“And what are they?” Kurama asked.

 

Lisha smiled brightly. “I couldn't be happier. It's a child made from love, and I'm glad to be birthing it.”

 

“That's good to hear.”

 

Yukina stood up. “I'm going to go to my home for a short while, I'll be back in a few weeks, can you manage the temple without me for that time Lisha?”

 

Lisha looked up at Yukina. “Sure, I won't cook anything, it's that simple. You're going home? Does that mean that you found your brother?”

 

She smiled and nodded. “Azriel told me this morning that it is Hiei.”

 

Lisha's head snapped around to Hiei. “You knew all this time and you didn't tell her. Why?” Kurama leaned over and explained the terms of his jagan. “Oh, never mind. Good luck Yuki.”

 

“Thank you.” With that, Yukina walked out the door to go to the portal in Genkai's forest.

 

Lisha slid around into Kurama's lap with one arm around his neck. “`Rama, I really am happy about this.” She placed a hand on her flat stomach and leaned closer to him. “But I have to ask you not to get mad when I go over to Lindsay and Mark's a lot.”

 

“Why would you be going over there?” Kurama asked.

 

“To clear my mind. I still can't do it on my own, I don't know why, I've been reading auras for about ten years, and I can meditate fine once I clear my mind.”

 

“I wouldn't get mad, I have no reason to be.” He slung one arm around her waist and the other around her shoulder and pulled her closer to himself. Lisha let out a yawn. “Sleepy are we?” He smiled.

 

“Yeah, just a bit. I don't know why, I took a short nap while I was at Lindsay's place.” She rested her head on Kurama's shoulder.

 

“How long is a `short nap'?”

 

“About two or three hours.” She mumbled into his shirt and fell asleep.

 

Azriel walked past them to the kitchen to grab a snack. She mumbled something that sounded like, “I'll get you later Lisha, now off to my nachos.”

 

Kurama chuckled and gently stood up, being mindful of Lisha. He walked down the hall and laid her in their bed. He sat down next to her and watched her sleep, gently brushing her bangs from her face. “Sleep for now my beautiful angel, tomorrow's another day.”
