Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Unexpected Gift ❯ You Have Got to be Kidding! ( Chapter 1 )

Part One: You Have Got to be Kidding Me!

Kuwabara slowly gets back to his normal schedule and it doesn’t take long for the others to forget he was ever kidnapped in the first place. He tries not to think about Ani too much though the demon was more often then not at the forefront of his mind. It was difficult for him to forget the way the demon’s body felt pressed to his own or the sounds that came forth when Kuwabara was claiming him. The carrot-top sighs softly. Why in the world had that had to happen to him? He hadn’t asked to have to feel guilty about taking one of his enemies. It wasn’t fair! “Kazuma, are you all right?” Shizuru asks yet again.

“I am fine,” he answers automatically but he wasn’t. He was no where near fine. It was taking everything he had to keep from accidentally telling the others and opening a lot of doors Kuwabara would prefer stayed shut. He sees that his sister doesn’t believe him but she doesn’t press him either. Part of Kuwabara wishes that she would though the other half is grateful that she keeps her distance. He doesn’t want to face the revelation that would bring for a long, LONG time. Kuwabara walks past Shizuru before heading outside and to the one place he knew where he could get his mind off of the stress of being a spirit detective, the arcade. Maybe a few hours of shooting people would make him feel better.

Ani looks up at the ceiling for the fifth time. He really, really wants to get out of the damn office and go home. For some weird reason, Oto forced him to go to a demon to be checked over for any lasting injuries. Ani has no idea why he agreed to do it…oh wait, yes he does. He had agreed to do it in order to shut his younger sibling up. Growling, Ani wonders what is taking the idiots so damn long. ‘It’s a simple physical. Surely these idiots can’t screw it up THAT much,’ he thinks. There was nothing wrong with him. He was perfectly fine but NOOO Oto just had to go and force him to see a doctor to be sure of that. Another growl escapes him and he starts to ponder how best to slice the idiots up when they arrived.

Almost an hour passes before the door opens. Ani is already angry before the doctor enters. “You had better have a good reason as to why I was forced to sit here for almost an hour!” he snarls. The demon looks at him worriedly for a moment.

“I apologize for the long wait. We were getting your tests back,” the demon murmurs.

“Fine! Can I go now?” he demands.

“Umm…yes in just a minute.”

“Why can’t I go now?”

“Because…ummm…you see...” The demon can’t finish the sentence he’s trembling so badly and Ani begins to wonder what on earth could make the idiot THAT scared of him.

“What are you babbling about?” he demands. The demon takes a deep breath while looking like he was about to convict himself of some heinous crime.

“You…you’re…you’re pregnant,” the demon stammers. For a moment, his words don’t sink in. When they do, Ani is flabbergasted.

“Pregnant? Did you say that I am PREGNANT?” he hisses.

“Umm…yes,” the demon says meekly. Ani stares at him struggling to comprehend what the demon has just revealed.

“That isn’t possible,” Ani finally manages, “It can’t be…there’s no way…”

“Yes there is and yes you are,” a new voice responds. He looks at the other demon in the doorway. “You are going to have to be very careful now that you are about a month and a half along.” It takes a few minutes before the irony of the situation catches up with Ani. If he was a month-and-a-half pregnant that would mean that the father of the child is…

“You have got to be kidding me!” he shouts, “There is no way in hell this is possible!” Both demons look at him sympathetically as if they had seen this reaction coming and it wasn’t too unfamiliar to them.

“There is no joke, Ani. You are seven weeks pregnant,” the second demon tells him. Ani looks at him for a moment. He takes a deep breath and tries to regain some semblance of calm. He cannot believe that after all he’s been through, he ends up pregnant with his enemy’s child. He remembers Oto’s warning and gets even more aggravated.

“Is that all?” he asks through gritted teeth. The demons look uncomfortable once again and Ani knows that more bad news is about to be revealed. “What now?” he demands irritably. He doesn’t have time to watch them stare at each other and then at him.

“Your brother has been informed,” one of them says softly, “It’s a policy that we have. The families must be informed when a male is pregnant.” Ani closes his eyes and inwardly winces. This was going to be a fun conversation THAT was for sure.

“Okay, so my brother knows that I am seven weeks pregnant. NOW can I go?” he demands.

“Yes, yes you may go,” they tell him. Ani walks out feeling like someone punched him in the gut. What was he going to tell Oto? He couldn’t reveal that the father was Kuwabara! That would be TOO humiliating. Well, he would have to think of something to tell his brother as he sees him sitting in the Waiting Room. Oto looks up as he enters and Ani braces himself.

“Nothing wrong huh,” his brother comments.

“Shut up,” he says immediately. Oto smirks.

“So who’s the father?”

“We aren’t discussing this, Oto.”

“Well, I want to know so that I can kill them.”

“That is unfortunate for you. Leave me alone about this, brother. I just want to go home and rest. This hasn’t been easy on me.”

“Nothing is ever easy on you, Ani.”

“Shut up, Oto.” The burly demon merely smirks before placing Ani onto his shoulder. The shorter demon just rests against him. ‘I am carrying Kuwabara’s child,’ he thinks miserably, ‘What did I do to deserve THIS?!’ Before he’s aware of it, he falls asleep on his brother’s shoulder and knows no more...
