Chapter 10
"No no, you gotta place it a little more up. Right here. Yeah, right there. Can you feel it now?"
Shunsui smiled at finally feeling the kicks from his little one. He and Jyuushiro were happy and anxious, Kurotsuchi-taicho had predicted that Ukitake-taichou's baby would be first to be born, then Kira's and then Urahara's and Hanatarou's.
"I hope it's a boy...."
Shunsui raised his head a bit to look at his lover. "Oh? Why?"
"Because if it's a girl you would totally spoil her all the time." Ukitake chastised gently, smiling at the though of his lover going gaga for only one girl finally.
Kyoryaku laughed gently at the accusation, knowing that it was completely true.
"Well, even if you say that, I hope it's gonna be a girl." The 8th Division Captain smiled and placed his head on Jyuushiro's engorged belly.
"Let's hope, Shunsui. Let's hope..."

Antsy was the right word for him, yeah. Izuru was antsy. He was seven months pregnant now and he supposed this was as big as he would get. He didn't have as much trouble walking, unlike Ukitake taichou who was huge, or Hanatarou-kun who's feet swelled.
Kira felt lucky about having an easy pregnancy, his back hurt from time to time but it was normal.
With a sigh, Izuru sat on the rocking chair the 3rd Division had bought for him. He and Shuuhei had painted the room a soft blue with yellow accents. Most of the furniture they'd gotten from the living world thanks to Ichigo, most of it white. The crib, the changer, a little dresser, even the closet Shuuhei had insisted in buying was white. The only colorful things in the room besides the wall were a round purple carpet and a number of small animal plushies Izuru'd fallen in love with. They were just so cute!
Everything seemed to be ready for Shizuka, now they just had to wait until the due date.
But he was too antsy to wait!
"I'll go take a walk."
Easier said than done. His shinigami robes had stopped fitting a few months back, and now he was forced to wearing regular kimonos and yukatas. Not that he didn't like them, they were comfy, but he didn't want to be thought of as a girl.
Just as he turned a corner, a familiar orange color came into view, sitting languidly on the outside bench of a sake shop, a bottle of sake barely out of reach.
"5th Seat Ayasegawa?"
Yumi raised his head a bit before turning away. He did not need this right now, he did not need to see Izuru's full belly from having a healthy baby inside.
With a bit of work, Izuru sat next front of him, worried.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm just fine. I'm just dandy, can't you see?" There was a bit of an edge in Yumichika's voice, but Izuru ignored it.
"I....heard what happened....I'm really sorry."
"If you came to pity me, stop. I've had enough of that already. Haven't you wondered why I'm so far from the 11th? It's because I can't stand everyone looking at me like I'm a piece of broken porcelain!"
"Ah-I'm..."
"Don't say it!! Don't say your sorry!" Yumi started crying. "I'm sick of this! I'm sick of everything! I want my baby boy back! And then you come by, flaunting around your big belly at me! You don't understand me!"
Izuru gently reached for Yumichika's hand, gripping it softly.
"I...I do understand, Yumichika."
He was crying too. Silent tears.
"If....Shizuka were to die now while still inside me....I don't think....I don't think I could ever get better...."
Yumichika stared at him for a second. It wasn't Kira's fault that his baby was growing well while Yumichika's had not. And just the same, Kira's pregnancy could go wrong at any second. He didn't have to have a miscarriage to understand, they both had carried another life inside them, and that was enough for them to connect.
"Kira....I'm so sorry Kira...."
Yumichika started crying, really crying, letting out all his suppressed feelings. Calmly, Izuru wiped the tears from his own eyes and wrapped his arms around Yumichika, the man needed comfort, and not just the comfort of his partner or friends, the comfort of someone who could understand the pain in his heart.
~*~*
Arriving home, Shuuhei wasn't surprised to see Kira sitting on the rocker, gently moving forward and backward. Quickly, he moved left the papers that still needed to be checked over on his desk and changed to something more comfortable than the shinigami uniform.
"Shuuhei..." Kira called softly from the other room. Hisagi hurried over.
"Yeah?"
Izuru looked up at him, beckoning him to come a little closer. Shuuhei did, placing a hand on Izuru's shoulder. "What's wrong."
The blonde didn't answer, moving to take Shuuhei's hand into his. "I saw Yumichika today."
"Oh." Shuuhei wasn't surprised, Yumichika was also, oh wait...no...."Oh..."
Izuru nodded a bit, soon looking up at Shuuhei's eyes. "He's gonna be okay, he's strong."
"I know....And you?"
Kira chuckled, rubbing his belly. "We'll manage."
Shuuhei smiled and leaned to kiss him. He didn't care anymore if he was Shizuka's father or not, that baby was his child no matter what, he had earned that right, being with Izuru, suppourting Izuru, hell, he'd cried the day Izuru told him he wanted Shizuka to have his last name. Izuru had accepted him as the father too, and if they were to loose Shizuka, Shuuhei would hurt just as much.
To be continued...Chapter 11
Update was until Friday but I couldn't resist, I don't wanna say how many chapters are already written 'cause I might jinx it, but I promise that after a couple of short chapters comes a really long one that's gonna explain some loose ends.
I'm in a good mood, so here's a little preview of the next chapter:
"I'm not upset, what makes you think that? I'm pissed off, but I'm not upset." If he could, Kisuke would've stormed off already, but his enlarged belly hindered his speed and agility to run away from the situation.
"Why are you pissed off?"
"Ok, stop. Don't try to fucking psychoanalyze me, Isshin."
"I'm not trying to-"
"Yes you are! Why can't you understand me! You call yourself a doctor but can't you see I'm having a mood swing!"
