A Bundle of Love
Spring was around the corner; it was still a little cold in the morning, but mid-mornings and afternoons were warming up. It was beautiful and sunny, reflecting her happiness today.
She arrived at the doctor's office and signed in, waiting for her name to be called. Feeling anxious to already start filling out the forms, her emotions stirred within her.
In the waiting room, the receptionist's voice was heard over the hum of the room.
Kagome got up when she heard the receptionist call her name, and made her way over to her.
"Mrs. Tanaka, would you please fill out these forms?" the receptionist told her as she handed Kagome a clipboard.
"Yes, of course!" Kagome chirped with a beam of excitement.
"Once you fill out these forms, and we verify your insurance, the doctor will see you shortly after. If you need any help filling the forms out, just let me know. You may go ahead and take a seat over there," the receptionist said, while pointed out the waiting area.
Kagome took the clipboard, and found a seat in the designated area. She looked over the forms and began filling them out.
When it came to writing her last name, she had almost put Higurashi instead of Tanaka.
For a second, Kagome sat there. Taking in the situation, if someone had told her three years ago that she would be married and mated, she would have laughed at the notion.
Never would she have thought about marriage or mating beforehand. She hadn’t thought Mr. Right was ever going to come, and that she was only a magnet for the bad boys. She had always felt doomed when it came to her relationship life, since nothing ever worked out with the guys she dated.
She was extremely happy with her lot in life when Kenji asked her to marry him. He had, also, wanted a stronger commitment, for them to be mated.
She had never considered mating him, or mating in general.
It had seemed like her luck had changed for the better after finding the perfect man. At this current point in her life, she was where every woman wanted to be, married and in love.
Kagome's mind wandered further back to her wedding day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Kenji Tanaka. Do you take Kagome Higurashi as your lawfully wedded wife? For as long as you both shall live till death do you part?" the priest asked, staring at Kenji.
"I do," Kenji answered with a loving smile.
"Kagome Higurashi. Do you take Kenji Tanaka as your lawfully wedded husband for as long as you both shall live till death do you part?" the priest turned to look her in the eyes.
"I do," Kagome said, choking up slightly, a tear rolling down her cheek; despite this, she smiled brightly at Kenji.
"Are there any objections? Speak now or forever hold your peace." The priest scanned the crowd and found no objections.
"With the power vested in me, I now proclaim you man and wife!" the priest shouted towards the crowd.
"Kenji Tanaka, you may now kiss the bride!" the priest said, as he stared at Kenji.
Kenji lifted the veil, both of them holding love and adoration in their eyes. A few tears ran down Kagome's cheeks as he grasped her chin to kiss her.
Kenji crashed his lips onto hers. He kissed with passion and love she never felt before. Her knees almost gave out on her, while he firmly held her by the waist. She opened her sapphire eyes to stare into his emerald ones. The world around them seemed to vanish, where it was only the two of them, endlessly and madly in love.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Kagome's pen dropped on the floor, and was pulled from her thoughts.
"Oh, shoot!" she mumbled in a low voice, trying not to disturb the other people in the waiting room.
Kagome quickly filled out the rest of the forms to hand back to the front desk.
"Thank you, sweetie! The doctor will see you shortly," the receptionist said, entering her information into the computer.
The office was beautifully decorated with light, vibrant colors. Paintings of landscapes adorned the walls, wonderfully depicted. There were fresh flowers in vases throughout the waiting area, the aroma reminded her of a lovely flower garden.
Kagome waited for about forty-five minutes. Keeping herself occupied by reading magazines, started to get a little impatient of waiting so long to see the doctor.
Kagome watched a lot of women walk out of the doctor's office with smiles on their faces. She couldn't wait to walk out with one of her own.
"Mrs. Tanaka, the doctor will see you now," the nurse shouted above the people talking in the room.
Kagome stood up, and followed the nurse into an exam room. She felt nervous and excited to meet the doctor. The staff was very kind to her and welcoming, making this experience one to remember.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mrs. Tanaka, we will need a urine sample from you. Then the doctor will see you shortly afterwards, hun. If there's anything you need, let me know. The restroom will be down the hall then on the second door to the right." The nurse handed her a cup, and pointed out the path to the bathroom.
"Okay, thanks! I really needed to go to the bathroom, anyway. I guess I'm just nervous right now," Kagome shyly stated with a light pink blush staining her cheeks.
Kagome looked around the room, marveling at the paintings on the wall; all mother's beautifully painted. The warm colors in the room gave off a welcoming feeling, making one feel at ease.
"It's okay, hun. We all get like that our first time," the nurse said in a calming voice.
"Thanks, I'll be right back," Kagome said as she left the room.
Returning to the room afterwards, it felt as if she were on a heavenly cloud. She looked up and realized her life was changing for the better. She was thinking of Kenji at the moment.
He had straight, dark, auburn hair that she loved to just run her fingers through. He normally wore it in a high tail, and she briefly wondered, with humor, if he did it to keep her from messing it up with her bad habit. She loved the view when he came out of the shower, the water dripping down his tan chiseled chest. Though what captured her the most were his emerald eyes.
There was a knock on the door that made Kagome pull away from her thoughts as she watched the doctor walk in.
"Hello! I'm Dr. Totosai, Mrs. Tanaka. I hope you don't mind if I call you by your first name, do you?" Totosai turned to his new patient. He was surprise that she was a miko; he could feel her reiki brushed against his skin.
"No, not all, Dr. Totosai. May I ask what kind of demon you are?" Kagome was curious; there was something different about the doctor. She felt his youki, but something was off.
Totosai had snow white hair, his beard was gray, and had a tan complexion. His eyes were black; he didn't have a lot of wrinkles either. He had a calm aura, making you feel at peace. She couldn't have asked for a better doctor to exam her.
"I'm a dragon youkai, the last of my kind. The kami gifted my lineage with foresight," he said proudly, as he thought of his people.
"Wow, I've never heard of any demons having such abilities!" She thought what an incredible ability to have bestowed upon him.
"I only see glimpses of the future, for its forever changing. This only happens when I touch someone." He turned to look to see if the nurse was ready to write down everything.
"That must be a great responsibility for you. It's truly a gift!" She thought of some of the burdens that came with such an ability.
"It's a gift as well as curse. One must not meddle in the kami affairs. Well, now let's take a look at you. Kagome, lay down, and lift your shirt a little above your belly button." Totosai was off to the side, waiting on Kagome to comply.
He approached her and put his hand on Kagome's stomach, then closed his eyes. He stood there for a few minutes, unable to comprehend the dilemma.
Totosai turned to Kagome with a surprised look. This was a special case, one he would keep a close eye on.
"Is everything fine, Dr. Totosai?" She was starting to get worried, his aura shifted strangely. Something she couldn't explain, usually she was good with her miko powers. Her reiki had been acting weird lately.
"Kagome, as you and I suspected, you are with child. Congratulations, you are going to be a mother!" Totosai exclaimed, for he was truly happy for her.
"I knew it, since I was late on my monthly cycle!" She was glowing with happiness.
"Well, Kagome, there are certain complications with this pregnancy. I have never seen anything like this before. Miko and demons are not supposed to be able to produce offspring. When a miko becomes pregnant by a demon, the spiritual powers kill the baby at some point in the pregnancy. No miko has ever given birth from bedding a demo_" Totosai was cut off by Kagome.
"My baby could die!" She was on the verge of tears, and started to panic.
"There's more, Kagome, listen carefully. It's different in your case; instead of your reiki destroying the demonic energy, it chose to put up a barrier to protect the kit from harm. Let me ask you this, can you summon your miko powers?" He wanted to see if she could do it.
Kagome cleared her mind to summon her powers. She felt her reiki but could not summon them. She opened her eyes to stare at Totosai in complete confusion.
"Why can't I, Totosai?" she asked, confused by the situation.
"Your reiki is creating a barrier; since it takes a lot of energy to do so, you will become frail and weak. I recommend bed rest until we know for sure. I would like to see you once a month. If anything happens, call me immediately. I will give you my private house number," Totosai said firmly, hoping she would stay on bed rest until she was further along.
"Thank you, Totosai." Kagome felt better knowing that everything was going to be fine; she just needed to follow the doctor's orders.
"I'm honored to be your doctor on such a rare pregnancy. I'm going to prescribe a tea that will help with nausea. You are to drink one cup in the morning and one at night. I'll see you in a month's time, unless it's an emergency. Take care of yourself and the baby." This was a rare sight to see indeed, a miko being pregnant by a demon.
Totosai felt honored to witness a pregnancy where normally powers would cancel each other out. Instead, they coexisting to protect and preserve a life, where in reality they would destroy one another.
Kagome got up from the bed, and took the slip from Totosai. She embraced him and pulled back to give him the brightest smile ever.
"I promise I'll call you if anything happens. I'll see you next month, Dr. Totosai." Kagome couldn't wait to tell everyone the good news; she was finally with child.
Kagome walked out of the room, moving towards the receptionist to get her appointment card for next month. She was walking out with a smile of her own as she had seen all the women before her do.
She walked out of the clinic, and got into her car.
She sat there for a moment thinking about being mother, and telling the news to her family. Many thoughts went through her mind, how to tell her family and friends.
"Who should I call first? Oh, Jakotsu would be mad if he wasn't the first person to know. I could tell him over lunch!" she said to herself.
'Man, I have to stop talking to myself!' she thought.
She went digging through her purse to find her cellphone.
"Ha! I found it!"
Jak had been her best friend since kindergarten. She called him to meet her at their favorite Italian restaurant.
Kagome parked her car, and entered the restaurant. She got a private booth where they could have some privacy.
Jak had a long boring day before Kagome had called him. He hadn't seen her in a while, and was actually surprised to get a call from her.
He quickly took a shower, changed into a light blue button up shirt, with some black slacks. A nice pair of black dress shoes completed the look, and his trench coat. He put a scarf around his neck, while he looked in the mirror.
"Damn! I look good!" he said smugly to himself.
He left the house that he shared with his brothers. He drove fast to arrive there quickly.
He checked in with the hostess, and she led him to where Kagome was seated.
"I'll be back in a few minutes to take your orders." The hostess bowed and left the two alone.
Kagome stood up to hug him, and he embraced her tightly, for he missed her dearly.
"Oh, Kags! I missed you girly!" Unfortunately, life caught up with the both of them. He made a mental note to see her more often.
"Me too, Jak! I've missed you so much!" She embraced him more tightly, as her eyes started to mist up with tears.
Jak could smell her tears, and he gently patted her head. It really had been too long since they had seen one another.
They both sat down and looked at each other across the table. She took a moment to take in a deep breath.
"Okay! Spill it, missy! I want all the juicy details of what, when, where, and how!" The suspense was killing him. He just wanted her to come out and say it already.
She couldn't help but laugh. For he made it seem so easy to change the mood.
"I'm pregnant!!" There, she said it with a big smile on her face.
"You're what?!" He was clearly shocked by the information she told him just now.
"Yup! I just came from the doctor's office!" She was just happy to tell someone but glad Jak was the first person to know.
"I'm going to be uncle Jak, Jak! Oh my god! I'm planning your whole baby shower!" His mind was reeling with ideas of throwing a fabulous baby shower.
"Kenji is going to be excited about the news of me being pregnant!" All she could think about was how to break the news to Kenji.
"Wait! What! Kenji doesn't know you're pregnant! How's that possible?" He let out a little energy to feel the baby, but felt nothing.
"No, he doesn't know yet! I haven't told him, I just found out today! Geez!" Sometimes Jak could be a little slow.
"Kags, I don't feel the demonic energy coming from the baby." The energy around her felt different but that was all.
"To make a long explanation short, my reiki put a barrier around the baby. All my powers are going into the barrier, which is going to leave me weak. I'm on bed rest for now. I'm just happy my baby isn't going to get purified by me." She was thankful to the kami who was watching over her pregnancy.
"I knew you were special... Kags, can I feel your stomach?" he asked excitedly.
She nodded for him to touch her stomach. He slowly stood up, and walked towards her. He placed his hand on her belly and felt the little kit's energy respond to his touch. He was happy for her, truly this was great news. He knew no one would be a better mother than his Kagome.
"I'm going to have a bundle of joy to call my own." Her mind wandered to whom her baby would take after.
"Kags, I want to be the godfather!" She was part of the family, his family. This baby was going to be spoiled rotten, and truly loved by all.
"I wouldn't want anyone but you to be the godfather!" She knew if anything was to happen to her, Jak would be there for the baby. She could already picture Jak taking off with her baby, and pampering him or her.
"So, how are you going to tell Kenji? You should surprise him with a romantic dinner tonight, maybe buy some lingerie. Who knows, you two might have dessert first!" He was thinking dirty thoughts already, trying to coax her into buying lingerie.
"I just thought about having a nice dinner." But she thought over Jak's idea. It would be nice to wear lingerie before she became a beach ball.
"I'm your only interesting friend! Who I might add makes you do outrageous things!" He knew Kagome was thinking about buying lingerie.
"You are my only friend who makes me do crazy things!" Gosh, why did she let him talk her into stuff like this?
"Girl, cause I already know you!" Finally, they were going to do some shopping together. He wanted her to feel and look beautiful on this day. He knew that figure wasn't going to last forever, better do it now; plus, he knew Kenji would like the surprise.
"We have to go out on more lunches together!" Now that she was pregnant, Jak would be the perfect company to have around.
"That's what I'm talking about! More girl time for us! Shopping sprees like no tomorrow!" He was happy that he would be seeing more of her now. He couldn't wait to see what she was having, a boy or girl.
"I don't know about shopping sprees, but I'm looking forward to the lunches!" Her stomach let out a growl. She couldn't do this without Jak's support; him being there brought a smile to her face.
"I think your baby's hungry, girl!" He was remembering that she could eat a lot for a woman her size. He was sure it would be doubled now that she was pregnant.
After the two of them finished their lunch, Jak decided he would take her to Victoria Secret.
