 “Yes. I’ll...be right back.” She went into the washroom and followed the directions, with the cloud of deja vu hanging over her. It seemed as though it was only yesterday she was discovering she was pregnant with Kibou…and what a dear gift he had turned out to be. She could not imagine her life without him, but he wasn’t currently her main concern. She took a deep breath as she finished her business, and watched the result show up on the device. She would only be surprised if the test came up negative, for deep down, she knew the answer. ...Positive… Her heart dropped. I knew it. She thought, breaking down in silent tears as she held her hand over her mouth, keeping her sobs at bay. She would not go on one test alone, for she knew it was important to see her doctor. Still, she sat in this moment, taking it all in as the tears flowed from her thick, closed lashes. She opened her eyes after a few moments, stopping to look at herself in the mirror. Her cheeks were flushed, and covered in tear streams, but her tanned skin was dewy, while her deep, evergreen hair was looking more glossy than normal. It was as if the process had already begun. No. I'm just seeing things. She looked down at the small box and pulled out another pregnancy test, going through the entire routine again. Positive. She silently wept for a couple more minutes, but did not want to stay in here too long, or to worry Tiger for longer than necessary. She had to show him that they were indeed going to welcome another child into their hearts. She brushed her bangs out of her face before she carefully washed the used parts of the tests, before exiting the washroom with them both in her hands. Her long evergreen braid swayed behind her as she walked. She looked until she found Tiger right where she left him. She couldn’t speak without choking up, so she simply held them up to him so he could clearly see the results. ((Time skip in my next post.))

He sucked in a lot of air and put both his hands on his head. “Uh…um….whoooo….wow……WOW.” He couldnt talk. “…Is it weird that I kinda wanna sing oops we did it again?” ……He knew she prolly HATE that. “Um. NEVERMIND! HAHAHAHA! Ha….huh…uh….whew…hoh…” He sighed and stopped and stared at her for a long time. “God youre so ******** beautiful. C’mere.” He hugged her and lifted her up off the floor. “Dammit Setsu. Dammit.” He sighed but he kept holding her like that.

Setsuna could hardly move, not that she wanted to, for she no longer felt the floor beneath her feet. She found a smile as she relaxed in his arms, sighing deeply from relief. She understood that it wasn’t easy to respond to something like this, and she appreciated that he was trying. She appreciated it more than he could ever know. She closed her eyes, letting her tears flow silently onto his shoulder. “Oh Tiger.”

**Time Skip ~ Four Months**  Setsuna gasped for air as she abruptly awoke, sitting up in bed after another strange dream. She panted for a moment before noticing she was now awake, and she threaded her fingers into her bangs as she slowly lied back down upon the mattress.
She took a few, slow, relaxing breaths as she stared at the celing, turning her head to look at the sleeping Tiger, who, of course, didn't awaken.
She rested in silence as she tried to go back to sleep, shutting her eyes for an extended period of time before she opened them again. She turned towards her night stand, observing the time which read 2:22.
She suddenly felt the baby move, and shortly after, her stomach started growling.
"...Tiger." She reached her hand over, whispering in the dark as she started to gently shake him. "...Tiger...wake up." She shook him further, trying to be patient, even though waking him was like trying to wake up a rock. She rose her voice this time, shaking him with a bit more vigor. "Tiger...I need something to eat."

“MUFH…Huh?” He rolled over with his hair in his face and he shook it outta the way . “….ufuh…huh……food?” He yawned loud and slumped back down. “…..yes I…want the platypus for dinner…..thanks.” He started snoring but he woke himself up. “FUh HUH…oh.” He dragged himself outta bed and wore nothing but his pj pants. He scratched his bare chisled chest and yawned again. “….mufuh…what time is it?” He scratched his head. “Umuh…so…..food food.....you need food……”

Setsuna slowly moved towards her nightstand, brushing her long, evergreen hair off of her shoulder as she reached for the lamp. Once the light came on, she sat up, adjusting the strap of her black nightgown as she spoke. “…I just can’t sleep until I have something to eat.” She watched him struggle to wake himself up. “I’m sorry Tiger…I’m just really hungry all of a sudden.” She thought about it as she looked down, observing her belly as the blankets remained draped over the growing, spherical shape. “I feel as though I’m bigger already…just overnight.” She said aloud, moreso to herself than to him. She knew that she was delusional from the overactive hormones, and that identifying this within herself was half of the battle.
Thinking of battles, led her mind down another path, as she recalled a certain trend with each conception, as a war would occurr within her body. The scientist in her could not help but study such things, leading to the discovery that the DNA of a half-divine Plutonian and a human-tiger metamorph had to battle it out until the concoction settled in a bundle of cells, then began to develop into a baby. It was no wonder she got so violently sick, and had so many outrageous cravings.
On a much more pleasant note, she was now over four months along, and upon her next trip to the doctor, she would discover the baby's gender.
She quickly snapped out of her daze as she thought about food, identifying a few strange things in particular that she found herself craving.
“I want…some pickle juice.” She told him, even finding the very thought of pickle juice strange herself. “…and for some reason…I also want some mangos…and some ice cream. No, scratch that…I want mango-flavored ice cream...even if it’s just vanilla ice cream with some mangos. I will mix them in…and…just bring me an entire pickle jar.” She nodded, thinking that was everything. “…I also want some meatballs.” She couldn’t believe she was saying it, for normally she would never eat meatballs by themselves. “Just the meatballs…no noodles.” She normally couldn't even fathom eating like this, but something inside her really needed it. “I know it’s a lot of information. Did you get all that, Tiger?”

He scratched himself and listened. “Yep…..uhuh.” He yawned. “Whatever you want sweetness.” He dragged his feet to the kitchen and got the meatballs and pickles. He looked for the fruit but didnt see any and he checked the freezer too. “No ice cream….GUH…guess she ate it all.” He yawned and went out back to the garage and put on his leather jacket and helmet and revved up his bike. He drove to the all nighter store and went in and saw the same people he saw a few times a week. He came here so much that they started giving him a discount. “Yup. Pregnant wife.” He yawned and found the ice cream and mangos. “Somebody should open up a store called DADS R WE. Open 24/7 for all dads who gotta get up at this hour and get this stuff.” He paid for the stuff and waved to the people. “See ya next week…..or in a few days….or tomorrow night.” He drove home and took the stuff straight to their bedroom to her. “Your food my lady.” He winked and snickered. “So um......who the hell eats mangos?” He picked one up. “They look weird.” He sniffed it. "Like a retarded orange or somethin."

Setsuna couldn’t help but chuckle after Tiger left, settling back against her pillows as she stacked them up behind her back so that she could sit up properly. Thinking about mangos suddenly gave her an idea, and she quickly pulled one of her many sketch pads from her nightstand. “I thought of an idea for a mango-colored dress, baby.” She spoke quietly to the child as she gently propped the pad upon her belly, scratching away at the design with her pencil. “Perhaps a floral print design, with mango as the base color.” “The top fabric should be light and flowy…a nice, light summer dress. I could make a floppy, summer hat to go with it.” She sighed as she looked at it. “I hope at least one client likes it. I’m going to need the money for your education now….I wish that someone would order another grand, designer wedding dress…” She blinked, her mind racing as she pondered a few more ideas. “…Perhaps I can search online. Perhaps I can contact a few wedding planners in the area and ask them about any upcoming weddings.”
She felt the baby nudge her, a bit towards her right ribs. She placed her hand there, a fond smile settling on her face. “Perhaps I should thank you for waking me up.” She mused, starting to feel silly that she was speaking to the baby so early, but she knew that the child was developed enough to hear her at this point. “I think your father must have had to run to the store. We did eat all that ice cream.” She mused as she continued with the sketch, stopping to look at it once she was finished. “This might be lovely…”
Setsuna was cut off when Tiger returned, moving to look through the items that he brought. “Mangos are anything but…” She scoffed, thinking that describing such a viable, nutritious fruit in such a manner was disrespectful as well as inaccurate. “…wild mango trees can provide fruit even after 300 years. They are nothing like oranges.” She could smell them as she took them out of the bag, and her stomach made a rather embarrassing, hungry noise. “Gods…they smell good…”
She found herself gathering all of the items, and taking them into the kitchen. She left everything out in a rather sloppy manner, something would usually never do. She washed all of the mangos, and pulled out her cutting board with a good knife, and then diced the fruit. She opened the largest container of ice cream and dropped the pieces in it, proceeding to stir the bits in, blending it to turn the vanilla ice cream into a rich, creamy orange color.
She sat on the stool silently, shovelling the ice cream into her mouth in such a way that she resembled Usagi...Sailor Moon's normal eating habits. She put the tub of ice cream on a tray, and took the container of meatballs from the fridge. She also took the jar of pickles, and without removing any pickles, she poured the juice into her teacup...the one she usually used for tea only. She carried the tray back to the bedroom herself, giving Tiger a slight frown as she strolled to her side. "Do you see this nice, tidy tray of food? This is what it's supposed to look like when you bring it to me." She was snappy again, although she did not mean it. In fact, she wasn't even aware of it. All she knew, was that she needed to eat, and she proceeded to do so after she sat on her bedside.
She sipped the pickle juice the same way she would sip her tea. It was delicious, as were the meatballs and the ice cream. She did not stop to think what an odd array of foods she had collected, but she soon found herself full and satisfied.
Setsuna sighed with great relief as she rested back against her pillows, placing a hand on her belly. She rubbed it gently, feeling as though she'd just run a marathon from eating all that food. She felt so much better, as though she'd soothed the angry beast of hunger, at least for now. She turned her head slightly to look at Tiger, now realizing that she'd been impatient and irritable with him. "I'm sorry Tiger. I didn't mean to snap at you." She narrowed her eyes in concern, but mostly in embarrassment that she let her hormones get to her, even if she could not help it. "You went out in the middle of the night and got food for me...again. You should know that I'm grateful. Thank you."

“Id do anything for you Setsu.” He grinned. “That was a whole hell of a lotta food. Is it weird that its….kinda hot? I mean not that you eat a lot its just….um…” He didnt know he was blushing and he leaned on the edge and flipped his hair. “Do I get a reward this time?” He smirked and wiggled his brows."You might say no but cant blame a guy for tryin'." He grinned. "Maybe a kiss? Or three? Or ten? OR MORE THAN A KISS?"

“No.” She replied quickly, turning back to her night stand to make a few more notes on her new design. She heard her stomach gurgling a bit, but she knew that it would take some time for all of those odd foods to be absorbed as nutrients for the baby. Setsuna did not know what came over her, but something within her compelled her to stop what she was doing, and look at Tiger. The longer she looked him over, the more she realized that he was quite...appealing at this particular moment. Sometimes she forgot to compliment him on his great beauty...for his luscious, golden hair...those vibrant blue eyes...that taut, strong body...cream colored skin... She stood up, and walked over to him. She took his face in her hands and kissed him, standing up on her toes a bit to reach his mouth. She repeated this motion as she wrapped her arms around his neck, stopping only to pull away slightly to look at him, a blush forming in her cheeks. “I…I’m sorry…” She stammered somewhat shyly, though she secretly didn’t want to let him go. She wasn’t normally so bold in that regard, and for the moment, she couldn’t recognize why... This process of thought was interrupted as she heard another gurgling sound, followed by a motion by the baby from deep within, as if the child was pushing or kicking against her stomach. She pulled away from Tiger, stepping back as she placed a hand on her belly, with the other on her chest. The glow in her cheeks vanished, and her face started to turn pale. “…oh gods…” She put a hand over her mouth as her face almost appeared a bit green. She raced off into the washroom, barely making it to the toilet in time. After a few minutes of losing every last bit of her meal, she wearily emerged from the washroom, after having thoroughly brushed her teeth, of course. “Tiger…” She sighed, now looking rather tired and weak. She figured she didn’t have to say that she needed more food, for it had been the same routine for the first wave of this trimester at least. “I…I need to lie down…for just a few minutes...” She climbed back into bed, carefully moving to lay quietly on her left side. Her hunger was already starting to return, but she was feeling some fatigue, which she would allow to take her, at least until Tiger returned with more food. ((Time Skip in Next Post))

Aw HELL yes! He wanted to kiss her more and he reached for her again and tried to pull her close. “Don’t be sorry…..” It all stopped when she got sick and ran to the bathroom. “....REALLY????….DAMMIT ALL TO HELL!” He fell to the floor defeated and listened to her coughing and waited a long time. He heard her come out and jumped up. “So? Lets continue where…..oh………………………….Yeah yeah…..I know. I’ll be back………………s**t.”
